In a Better World

June 1st 2016 saw the 30th anniversary of the release of Chris de Burgh's album Into The Light. This was the album that established Chris as a true worldwide superstar. The album sold in excess of eight million copies. 30 years later Chris is releasing his 26th studio album - A Better World. The album includes brand new self-penned songs which encompass all the craftsmanship learnt from the more than 280 songs written by this master songwriter. The first single is called 'Bethlehem' - a dynamic rock track reminiscent of the global hits 'Don't Pay The Ferryman' and 'High On Emotion'. Always in tune with global and political issues, Chris de Burgh provides much food for thought in the lyrical content of his new album. The title alone sets the tone and intent for a collection of songs which, although not exclusively concerned with key issues of the day, certainly holds up a mirror to many of them.
