"We're Alive" by Kris Ryder a.k.a. Chris Andrews

Like a day at the beach in Kokomo, this song tells a tale of a man running into a lost girlfriend who went down a sad road, but today they're glad to be alive! Chris Andrews a.k.a. Kris Ryder presents this upbeat reggae-fied Motown-ish New Wave power pop/synthpop anthem—with fab guitar work by guitarist Phil Palmer (Eric Clapton, David Essex, Dire Straits, Wishbone Ash) + big harmonies by Kris with Dominic Bugatti and Frank Musker (who co-wrote Queen’s “Too Much Love Will Kill You”). This track was produced by Christopher Neil (A-ha, Sheena Easton). On a cosmic jukebox this record would play somewhere between The Beach Boys, The Buggles, and Men at Work.

The full scope of Chris's music encompasses 60s British Invasion pop, mod rock, musical theatre, and psychedelica—notably with Ruperts People and Fleur de Lys, the renowned “freakbeat” band that launched the careers of Bryn Haworth and Pete Sears (Jefferson Starship). Between 1978-82 Chris released a string of notable New Wave/synth-pop records under the name of Kris Ryder. As an actor Chris has performed from Broadway to London’s West End, famously replacing Davy Jones as the Artful Dodger in the award-winning stage musical of OLIVER! Chris and Davy remained friends for life, working on stage and in the studio. Meanwhile, Chris keeps creating new music. This video was made in 2021 by Johnny J. Blair.
