So let's explain why I chose that song:

I think it's because de Burgh visits Lebanon every year, and always records with local artists, I always felt he was one of the locals. I think that's what made me like Chris de Burgh, even though I always felt he's corny.
As for Lady in Red specifically, I think it's because I used to listen to it a lot when I was going through a kind of depression (after a dumping). So that's why this song will always be one the tunes that can get me in tears (I'm exaggerating here, but you get the point).

Though I have to add, some of Chris de Burgh's songs, are great, and I'll never consider them as "guilty pleasures". Specially Spanish Train, one of my favourite story-telling songs.



Edit: I have a second unguessed track in the comp btw.
