I still think that there are a few singers who can be counted on the fingers of one hand who are still able to alert societies to the dangers of wars, their catastrophes and consequences of these wars , including, of course, Roger Waters and Chris de Burgh . Such singers are reckoned pacifists and deserve respect and appreciation. They are an example of how art can serve societies and spread peace among . Such singers deserve a round of applause for their noble arts

I listened to this great song again on 6 June. As a veteran this song touches me deeply. Acknowledging the horror of war, sacrifice, letting go, and new beginnings.

Chris de Burgh is one of the finest musicians. His music touches the heart like few others can. And it’s lasting. Beautiful stories. Complex songs at times sounding simple. I’d always hoped he’d collaborate with ABBA or Sarah Brightman. I saw him in concert in Sydney many years back for his ‘Beautiful Dreams’ tour. He made me cry.

This is the most profound of Chris de Burgh’s songs I think . Refugees , Lake Geneva , the guns of war, and the dead young men on the Normandy beaches of Juno, Omaha and Gold on D Day . My dad’s old university friend was killed on the Normandy beaches on D Day at the age of 21 - RIP Philippe Pimentil ! Can’t find your name on the new memorial to the allied dead on the Normandy beaches - maybe so little of you was left you’re just buried as ‘ a British soldier , known only unto God ‘ . Let’s hope all these sacrifices haven’t been totally in vain and someone puts a stop to that monster Putin ( another bloody Hitler ) and helps the courageous Ukrainians to WIN !

I love this song, especially this version! Chris de Burgh is a genius!

SAY GOODBYE TO IT ALL SONGTEXT We took a boat over Lake Geneva. It was raining all night long We were lucky and we saw no enemy And came from Switzerland, poor refugees Far from the guns of war We said goodbye to it all They brought us in to a nurse's station Half a mile behind the lines Oh Lord, how my heart was breaking To see the children, and the walking wounded Hoping for a ticket home To say goodbye to it all I woke up on a cold blue morning I see her there, standing right beside me Long years since I left her at the borderline And how she found me I'll never know We decided there and then To say goodbye to it all (to it all) Say goodbye to it all Say goodbye to it all... Took a train from Paris to the ocean Found a small hotel by the coast As we walked along the beaches of Normandy We came to Juno, Omaha and Gold And whispered a prayer for the boys Who said goodbye to it all Now we've got our own place by the water And I have a job in the old hotel She is ready and she's hoping for a daughter Well I don't mind, we've made our choice. We've got all the time in the world We said goodbye to it all We said goodbye to it all. Say goodbye to it all Say goodbye to it all Say goodbye to it all Say goodbye to it all. Say goodbye Say goodbye

What an incredible writer and musician absolutely one of the greats

the music is enthusiastic and wholesome. there is a difference in sound when comparing CD and live but the meaning remains the same.

Takes me back, out in the desert of the first Gulf war waiting to advance into Iraq with A sqdn Royal Scots as a young 18 year old lying on top of an army truck canopy watching the night sky with my walkman on listening to Chris De Burgh watching our jets fly over switching off there lights and 5 minutes later watching the horizon light up with tracer and bombs and feeling the ground shake knowing that is where I will be heading not knowing if I will live to see my parents again.Feeling never goes away even after thirty plus years. To all our past and present veterans uk and world wide may you stay safe.

Such touching words of the heart break of war -lest we forget - as only Chris can touch our hearts. Lovely

I saw this magnificent man in concert in Melbourne many moons ago and loved every minute of it. Pure music, Pure Joy. 😘😘😘😘 Emily Liberty

Чудесный голос, проникает в душу! Его песни вне времени, их всегда будут слушать.

Ein super Mann mit einer super Stimme und super Ausstrahlung, seine Konzerte, die ich erleben durfte waren das Größte!!!

We saw this brilliant artist at The Playhouse in Durban in 1979, it was awesome!

One of my all time favorites :) I can't resist not singing along this one when I am in a concert! :))

33, 2020, still love this and sing loud,

May all who read this Have a Blessed Day and a Good Life... Love and Light Is All

I've loved Chris's music since I first heard it played over a pub speaker system in Bridgend. The song was 'Don't Pay The Ferryman' and I thought "That's music I want to hear more of". Since then, I have pretty well every album he's released and most of his sheet music songbooks. I play his stuff on my keyboard and never get tired of hearing it and playing it. His concerts are a joy, his music tells stories and touches the emotions. Thank you, Chris.

Out of this world. I'm sheding tears

What a beautiful live performance from the unsung maestro.Thank you, Chris, for this and many other timeless classics.

This Gentleman has had the most memory in songs that I remember since a teenagers besides ABBA. I am excited that I am going to see him this October at Casino Rama. I wish it was tomorrow. All his songs have a story behind it and thats what I feel makes a real story and song :D Love him

A very moving piece of music, "paints" a very real picture.. He and another musician, Harry Chapin, did this, so well

I remember the time we met in the Ostseehalle of KIEL so well... Your music took away my pain countless times and will do so further - You are my hero till eternity, Chris de Burgh! Thank you so much! 🎧🌻

O inesquecível e maravilhoso Chris de Burgh. Com suas lindas músicas, Me faz viajar nas belas Lembranças.🇧🇷

Depuis plusieurs années que, je l'écoute sans me lasser et même maintenant encore plus qu'avant, super chanteur et quel voix, bravo ❤

One day in the fall of 2010 was my last day on my annual vacation in my beautiful and wonderful country #Apamea, when I was alone to our ancient hills and put this beautiful song .. I never thought that it would be a farewell song for everyone .. Ten years have passed and I still say goodbye to everyone. The most beautiful memories and the most wonderful country #Syria #Apamea .. This song cuts my heart whenever I enjoy it.

Великий мастер! Один из той эпохи! Сейчас близко таких нет! Эстетика Вырождения! Нужно смириться с этим, и наслаждаться той безвозвратно ушедшей эпохой !Слава тому блистательному поколению!

BRILLIANT SONG 👏💗
