1… Read Full Bio ↴There are several artists who recorded under the name Christopher.
1. Christopher Nissen (born January 31, 1992) is a Danish singer from Copenhagen, signed to EMI Denmark. In November 2012 he won an award at the Danish Music Awards 2012. He was awarded New Thinker of the Year (Årets nytænker), given by Spotify as an innovation prize. His debut single was 'Against the Odds' (September 2011), which reached #23 in Denmark. His début album, 'Colours', was released in March 2012, its follow-up, 'Told You So', in March 2014.
2. Hailing from Toronto Canada, Christopher, who found most conventions and current musical climates quite disagreeable, is a 3rd generation student drop out of Bela Bartok. Originally a classically trained guitarist, Christopher transmuted into a multi-ethnic dual gender vocal firestorm and fringe composer. The first incarnation was the 2001 release Wer Next Projekt. Fast forward five years of relocating, reinventing, whimsical auditions for Finnish metal bands, studio fires and floods, Smoke and Origination is released, a 68-minute opus that shares some of the same discordant ambitions Brian Wilson laid down in 'Pet Sounds'. The album documents urban sprawl and the cannibalistic homogenization of Western life.
3. Another one of Texas' wealth of interesting, late-'60s psychedelic bands, Christopher came together in 1968 in the Houston area. Doug Tull (drums), Doug Walden (bass, vocals), and Richard Avitts (guitar, vocals) were the original members of the band, which was originally known as United Gas. Tull and Avitts, at the time playing in a series of R&B and soul-leaning groups, first met in 1966 when Tull sat in on drums with one of Avitts' bands. Tull, however, was not as serious about the music as Avitts, leading to an eventual split. Tull developed a friendship around this time with Jefferson Airplane guitarist and Texas native Jorma Kaukonen, and, in 1967, invited Avitts to jam with them. Certain that they had the makings of a band, the two went searching for a bassist who could sing, eventually finding Doug Walden. It was not long before United Gas developed a following in and around Houston, playing local clubs such as Tangerine Forest, whose owner, Nick Lee, developed an interest in the band, eventually becoming their manager. Walden and Avitts began writing their own material and recorded a demo that Lee had circulated around Las Vegas and Los Angeles by his connections in those cities. United Gas moved to Las Vegas for a brief time and then to Los Angeles after L.A. record label Metromedia offered them a two-year contract. At the behest of Metromedia, the band changed their name to Christopher so that they wouldn't be confused with similarly monikered California band Pacific Gas & Electric. Walden and Avitts felt Christopher to be a religious band -- the name is derived from Saint Christopher -- and wanted to convey this through the music. Recording of their first album started in early 1969, but was hampered by Tull's drug use and his failed suicide attempt. He was fired (later returning to Houston and joining Josephus) and the sessions were completed with drummers John Simpson and Terrence Hand. The result was Christopher's self-titled debut album, released in a single 1970 pressing of a thousand LPs by Metromedia. Walden and Avitts remained in Los Angeles playing as Christopher until Avitts returned to Houston later in the year.
4. Christopher was a fuzz psych / garage / blues rock band from North Carolina, United States, who released one studio album: 1970s' 'What'cha Gonna Do?' on Chris-Tee Records. Only 100 copies were pressed originally, making it an ultra rarity until Rockadelic/Atlas re-issued it. Personnel: Gary Lucas (drums), Bill McKee (bass), Steve Nagle (guitar), Frank Smoak (lead guitar).
5. Paddy O'Neill had been a member of Manchester-based harmony acts such as The Chuckles in the late 1960s. He recorded a singer-songwriter album ('Where I Belong') for the fledgling RAK label as Christopher Neil in 1972. In between he recorded a one-off single for Chapter One Records under the name Christopher: 'Sharkey'b/w 'The Race'.
A Beautiful Life
Christopher Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And I saw my whole life
Flash before my eyes
So much for planning ahead
We gon' be alright
There won't be a right time
Oh, I said, "I am way too young"
I'm just a kid, I can't raise one
It feels like my life is over
Feels like my future's crushed
And I'm gonna miss the times when
It was just the two of us
I don't ever want to let go
Of everything that I love
It sure feels like dying
Saying goodbye
To my beautiful life
"Daddy, I can't sleep", she said
Can you leave the light on?
And please sing me my song
And I can't help but think to myself
Those green eyes and brown curls
Turned into my whole world
She's growing up so fast
If only I could make it last
It feels like my life is over
Feels like my future's crushed
'Cause my baby's getting older
Tomorrow she'll be all grown up
I don't ever want to let go
Of everything that I love
I turn off the lights
And say good night
To my beautiful life
Pack the bags and ready to go
We look at each other
She looks like her mother
Off to chase dreams of her own
She cries in the backseat
As we wave at the taxi
Oh, our baby's moving out
Leaving this home an empty house
Feels like my life is over
Feels like my future's crushed
And I'm gonna miss the times when
It was just the three of us
I don't ever want to let go
Of everything that I love
It sure feels like dying
Saying goodbye
To my beautiful life
To my beautiful life
"Baby, I'm pregnant", she said
And I saw my whole life
Flash before my eyes
In Christopher's song "A Beautiful Life," the lyrics depict a story of a young man who unexpectedly learns that his partner is pregnant. The revelation catches him off guard and sends his mind racing as he sees his entire life unfold before him. The line, "Flash before my eyes," suggests that in that moment, his future and plans are shattered, forcing him to abandon his previous notions of what his life was going to be like. He acknowledges that there will never be a perfect time for such a life-altering event and expresses his concerns about his youth and inability to responsibly raise a child at his current stage in life.
As time passes, the young man becomes a father and experiences the rapid growth of his child. He cherishes the moments spent with his daughter, feeling a sense of overwhelming love and attachment. However, he also realizes that life moves too quickly, especially when you have someone to care for and watch grow. He wishes he could freeze time and hold onto those precious moments forever. The fear of letting go and losing what he loves becomes pervasive in his thoughts.
Towards the end of the song, the narrative shifts as the daughter grows older and prepares to leave home to pursue her own dreams. The young man, now a father, and his daughter share a bittersweet moment as they say their goodbyes. The lyrics convey a strong sense of emotional attachment, with the father feeling that his life is over and his future crushed as his daughter ventures out into the world. The empty house represents the void left behind after his daughter's departure, symbolizing the impact she had on his life.
Overall, "A Beautiful Life" explores the rollercoaster of emotions experienced by a young man who goes through the joys and struggles of becoming a parent, and the transformative effect it has on his entire perspective of life.

Baby, I'm pregnant
She revealed that she is expecting a child
And I saw my whole life
In that moment, my entire future flashed before me
Flash before my eyes
I experienced a sudden and intense realization
So much for planning ahead
All my carefully made plans seem irrelevant now
We gon' be alright
We will find a way to make things work
There won't be a right time
There is no perfect timing for such news
Oh, I said, 'I am way too young'
I expressed my feeling that I am not ready for this responsibility
I'm just a kid, I can't raise one
I feel too young and inexperienced to be a parent
It feels like my life is over
I have a sense of overwhelming loss and despair
Feels like my future's crushed
My hopes and dreams have been shattered
And I'm gonna miss the times when
I will long for the moments in the past
It was just the two of us
When it was only me and my partner
I don't ever want to let go
I refuse to give up or move on
Of everything that I love
I cherish all the things that bring me joy
It sure feels like dying
The emotions are so intense, it feels like a metaphorical death
Saying goodbye
Having to part ways
To my beautiful life
To the life I once considered beautiful
Daddy, I can't sleep', she said
My daughter expressed her difficulty in falling asleep
Can you leave the light on?
Can you keep a light on for me?
And please sing me my song
And sing the song that brings me comfort
And I can't help but think to myself
I couldn't help but reflect internally
Those green eyes and brown curls
My child's distinct physical features
Turned into my whole world
They became the center of my universe
She's growing up so fast
My daughter is maturing quickly
If only I could make it last
If only I could make time slow down
Pack the bags and ready to go
Preparing our belongings for departure
We look at each other
We exchange a gaze filled with emotion
She looks like her mother
My child resembles her mother
Off to chase dreams of her own
She is embarking on a journey to pursue her own aspirations
She cries in the backseat
She sheds tears from the rear of the vehicle
As we wave at the taxi
We bid farewell to the taxi with a wave
Oh, our baby's moving out
Our child is leaving this home
Leaving this home an empty house
Our home will feel empty without her presence
And I'm gonna miss the times when
I will reminisce about the moments in the past
It was just the three of us
When it was our small family together
To my beautiful life
To the life I once considered beautiful
To my beautiful life
To the life I once considered beautiful

@@valeriesawden5376 To every soul OUT THERE:
All prayers from Righteous SOULS aka Born again Christians, have power. Sinners prayers GOD hears not. Unless we REPENT and born again and LIVE HOLY, GOD hears none of our prayers. Prayers have power, but these must come from Changed hearts.
Proverbs 15:29 The LORD is far from the wicked: but he heareth the prayer of the righteous.
Psalms 119:155 “Salvation is far from the wicked: for they seek not thy statutes.”
(Many souls(unsaved souls), believe falsely and pray in vain).
Mankind is filled with UNSAVED SOULS (WICKED SINNERS).
That`s why there`s a calling to REPENTANCE and to BORN AGAIN:
Luke 5:32
I came not to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.
John 3:7
Marvel not that I said unto thee, Ye must be born again.
Luke 13:3
I tell you, Nay: but, except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish.
