The 57-year-old, who is best known for his hit The Lady in Red, told TV host Gloria Hunniford of his gift.
During an interview on her religious show Heaven and Earth he confided: “I have found myself able to cure people with my hands.
“I met someone in the West Indies who was not able to walk. I put my hands on him and he was able to get up.”
Chris de Burgh? CHRIS DE BURGH? The man who inflicted “Lady in Red” on us all can apparently cure people, instead of causing everlasting pain as it appears he usually does? Yeah, right.
What’s worse is that he’s actually apparently serious about this – according to a poster on the DVD Forums, he turned up on Aled Jones’s Radio 2 show and claimed he was surrounded by angels that protected him.
The last word on the subject, thankfully, will be provided by Bill Bailey via the medium of Youtube video:
