Chris de Burgh had a neverending sing-song on the Late Late, Twitter reacts accordingly

Lady in rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrred.

THE LATE LATE Show paid tribute to 40 years of Chris de Burgh last night, which mostly involved him paying tribute to himself in song.

Just imagine this for 20 minutes.

It was all very ‘your dad taking out his acoustic guitar at a wedding’.

On very strong pain medicine, so I'm sure I just hallucinated a segment of the Late Late Show featuring the songs of Chris De Burgh.

My main problem with Chris de Burgh is that in A Spaceman Came Travelling he uses the phrase ‘light years of time’. Unforgivable. #LateLate

Pretty sure my fight or flight reflex would kick in if Chris De Burgh started singing two feet away from me.
