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'.

There's a reason we're so strong
No, we don't break
We made mistakes but it's okay
And we've been up for hours, we've been up for days
Worrying about the things that we can't change (yeah)
So tell me what's the use? There's no way I can lose
Is this what Heaven feels like? Oh, oh, oh
This just can't be real life, no, oh, oh
It took some time to realize, oh, oh, oh
After all, we've been through
The good parts only feel like they do
'Cause we kept the bad parts too
Uh, had a bad day, had a rough week
Baby, don't worry, put it on me
'Cause I got you, I got you
And we've been up for hours, we've been up for days
Worrying about the things that we can't change (yeah)
But tell me what's the use? There's no way I can lose

The song "Real Life" by Christopher is a song about the strength and resilience of a relationship. The lyrics talk about how the ups and downs in a relationship are what makes it real and worthwhile. The opening lines state that there is a reason why the couple is so strong and that although they have made mistakes in the past, it's okay. The chorus repeats the phrase "Is this what Heaven feels like? This just can't be real life" which is an expression of the overwhelming love and happiness the couple is experiencing. The final lines of the chorus say: "The good parts only feel like they do/ Cause we kept the bad parts too" which means that the highs in the relationship are more meaningful because they have been through tough times together.
The second verse of the song provides additional insight into the couple's relationship. It talks about how the couple has been up for hours and days worrying about things that they can't change, but ultimately they know that they won't lose because they have each other. The line "Baby, I got you and your bad parts too" speaks to the idea that in any relationship, there will be difficult times and aspects that are not perfect, but it's important to show love and support through those moments. The song overall is an uplifting and romantic expression of the true beauty of a relationship.

God exists, creation bears witness to it, but sin separates us from Him, and we sin, and deserve the hell, that is why He sent His Son Christ to live a Holy life, die on a Cross paying the penalty for our sins, saving His chosen ones of condemnation, dark powers and curses, reconciling us with God only by Faith in Jesus and His Sacrifice, not by works, so that no one can boast, Giving us Eternal Life, God bless you. Glory be to the Father, to the Son and to the Holy Spirit
