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'.

Christopher Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Girl why do I suffer
Just because another
Selfish kind a lover, did you wrong
Baby I'm so sorry
He got there before me
It's another story now
I won't let you, I won't let you down
I won't let you, I won't let you drown
Ooh baby
I won't let you down (boy, you let me down)
I won't let you down (boy, you let me down)
I won't let you down (boy, you let me down)
Lean on me 'cause
I won't let you down (boy, you let me down)
I won't let you down (boy, you let me down)
I won't let you down (boy, you let me down)
Down, down, down, down
Boy that's what they all said
Sounded real good until they all left
You told me what makes you the one and only
But show me for a change
Don't take me on a night out
Just to say let's take it back to my house
That's not what I'm looking for right now
Gotta step up your game
Oh, I swear I won't let you down
You never hit the ground
You never have a doubt
Oh, I would love for you to be
The one that's meant for me
Come sweep me of my feet, oh
I won't let you down (boy, you let me down)
I won't let you down (boy, you let me down)
I won't let you down (boy, you let me down)
Lean on me 'cause
I won't let you down (boy, you let me down)
I won't let you down (boy, you let me down)
I won't let you down (boy, you let me down)
Down, down, down, down
We could have everything
Love is all we need
Gotta take the leap
If we wanna make it last
Forget about the past, ooh
Ooh, ooh!
I won't let you down (boy, you let me down)
I won't let you down (boy, you let me down)
I won't let you down (boy, you let me down)
Lean on me 'cause
I won't let you down (boy, you let me down)
I won't let you down (boy, you let me down)
I won't let you down (boy, you let me down)
Down, down, down, down
I will never let you down
The song "Let You Go" by Christopher S feat. Nalaya is all about a man who is begging for forgiveness from a woman who has been hurt in the past. The woman has been hurt by a selfish lover and the man is trying to prove to her that he won't let her down like the previous lover did. He is aware of the hurt and pain that he has caused her by not showing up for her and not being a reliable partner. He is telling her that he won't make the same mistakes and that she can count on him to be there for her. The chorus repeats the line "I won't let you down" several times, emphasizing the man's promise to be there for the woman.
The second verse of the song reveals the woman's frustration with men who make false promises. She is looking for a man who will show her that he's serious about being with her, and not just take her on a date to his house. She wants him to show her that he is committed to the relationship and willing to do the work to make it last. The song ends on a hopeful note, with both the man and woman ready to take the leap and forget about the past.
Overall, "Let You Go" is a song about forgiveness, commitment, and reliability. It speaks to the universal desire to be with someone who is trustworthy and dependable, and who won't let us down when we need them most.
