    Peter Gabriel was the lead singer for Genesis before Phil Collins (Phil was already the drummer for the group… they kept trying out singers to replace Peter until they decided Phil was who they needed). Peter is very eclectic and has some strange but wonderful music. Sledgehammer has a fun video. His duet with Kate Bush on “Don’t Give Up” is hauntingly beautiful.

      Considering this song is from his most commercially successful album, what never stops impressing me about PG is his continuous experimentation. He probably could have easily made another So style album after this, sold millions and laughed all the way to the bank, but that wouldn't be his style, so instead we have US, which is arguably his most personal album, and UP, which has some great songs but took well over a decade to come out.

      Nah,it was mutual. The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway album was almost entirely Pete's conceptualization and after having a taste of that much control,he wasn't very interested in giving it back. And the other 4 lads weren't keen on essentially being Pete's back-up band if that was the way it was going to go. So he felt he had outgrown the constraints of being in a band and the band didn't do anything to dissuade him.

    He has always involved different musical styles of the world into his music, this was not something that people did in the 1970's when he did his 1st solo album after leaving the band genesis. He is involved in UNICEF and did song about Steve Biko who was murdered in South Africa which is worth a listen. He performed it for Nelson Mandela after end of aparteid. I would suggest listening to red rain or solsbury hill next, great reaction

    One of the most vivid statements for the power of music to join and heal. The way they face each other, they dance in unison (and focus their steps on meeting the earth rather than leaving it like Western dance), the multiple languages, and the pure joy in their expressions and communion…I hope they see this in 500 years and know we understood the assignment even if we didn’t complete it most of the time.

This song is best known from “the boombox scene” in the 80’s movie called Say Anything with John Cusack. A GenX classic and worth watching in your pajamas with a bowl of popcorn. Keep doing what you’re doing. Watching your reactions to my old songs makes me laugh and you call my attention to so many things in the songs that I hadn’t noticed. Love you both.

    My ex and I burned up the dance floor after the wedding, dancing to this, our wedding song, that had only just come out. Before the year was out, I would see him performing it live at an Amnesty International concert at RFK, in Philly, where she was to get her doctorate. I saw him, not we. We were already history in the making, sorry to say. The song was like a pair of bookends, as that was also our last meeting. Freed from having to deal with me, she went on to teach at Harvard and Oxford, so it most not have been all that bad.
    You would do well to mine the vast catalog of Peter Gabriel tunes and performances, with or without Genesis. "Games Without Frontiers" might be a timely place to continue. Anyway, great review as always. Peace on Earth!

    The original album version of this song featured Youssou N'Dour from Senegal in West Africa. He is one of the biggest and most popular singers and musicians from Africa. He has an amazing range and the woman in this video sort of takes his place though the man in African dress next to her takes some of the parts too.
    I saw Peter in concert in 1986, the year this album, So, came out, and Youssou N'Dour and his band was the opening act and they were phenominal. Then Peter came on and played for 2 hours, and then for the encore, Youssou's entire band joined Peter's band on stage and played this and about 4 or 5 more songs. The concert was 4 hours long and was probably the best live show I've ever seen! Back then Peter still crowd surfed during the song 'Lay Your Hands on Me'. Pretty wild to see a star as big as him dive into the crowd and let people pass him around! And if you want another powerful song from him, try Biko. He wrote that in honor of the South African anti-apartheid activist, Steven Biko, who was beaten to death by SA police. 20,000 people attended his funeral, and made world news, and moved Peter to write the song. Thanks for listening and sharing. Keep going with more PG!

    You probably know by now that Peter Gabriel was the singer of Genesis in the early days and then went solo. I got to see him when he was with Genesis in they're very early days in Pennsylvania where I grew up and then again and Philadelphia at JFK. He's always put on a great show The secret garden is based I think more of African sounds and African bass sounds so that's why it's that drum kind of thing that you hear between his backup vocalist who is actually from Africa. It's amazing the whole tour was great not a bad song in the bunch.

    To me, this is one of the best live performances on RUclips, right up there with QUEEN live in Montreal.
    Papa Wemba is the guy that starts riffing in Senegalese(he was from Congo) . The woman is Paula Cole, who has a song or two of her own that you may know, but has seen way more success as a songwriter.
    I used to think this song was about falling in love, but, as I've gotten older, I think it has a bigger, spiritual meaning. Like someone searching for faith...

    Aw, I really love this song…whole album actually 💕 you guys should definitely listen to his duet with Kate Bush, Don’t Give Up…so moving ✌️💙🌌
    Do you guys know about Zap Mama? If not you definitely need to check her out! She has a lot of different sounds, does collaborations with amazing people, Belgian African goddess! Start with Rafiki perhaps I promise you'll love it!

    This entire concert, every single second.from the first note to the last, is one of the best I’ve EVER HEARD. Peter Gabriel was the original lead singer of Genesis, which was taken over by Phil collins after Gabriel left.

    One of the most beautiful live examples of musical artistry I've seen in all my years. Incorporating all the spices to make the soup in unison. One of those rare,blessed moments.

    If you ever get the chance, watch the entire concert. The musicianship is absolutely amazing and Peter Gabriel has always written songs with deep meaning. This album is one of my favorite live albums ever.

    Seen a lot of comments about Pete's Afro-centric leanings with some of his music here,all true. But it goes deeper...
    ...on his third solo album after leaving Genesis,Gabriel included a song named "Biko",a cry of anguish for murdered South African educator and anti-apartheid activist Stephen Biko. Biko's murder at the hands of the ultra-racist Apartheid government was one of many injustices at that time which helped to light the match that launched a worldwide movement against the government of South Africa. A movement that finally forced the mostly indifferent governments of the West to act and helped to bring down that government and get it's political prisoners,like Nelson Mandela,freed.
    Gabriel was not only one of the main artists at the forefront of this movement,his involvement opened the eyes of many other artists to it. There have been few musical artists in my lifetime with Pete's integrity and passion for doing whatever he can to help make our world a better place. He's a legend to many of us for these reasons.
    Loved your reaction.

    I saw this tour live. I was obsessed with Peter during the 80s when this album “So” came out. He puts on amazing show. He was the original lead singer for Genesis. #teamPeterGabriel

    Gabriel promoted WOMAD (World of Music and Dance) and champions music from all areas of the world.He bought Youssou N'Dour (featured here ) from Senegal to many Western peoples notice.Also, special mention here to one of my fav drummers, Manu Katche and the incomparable Tony Levin on bass

    Like no other song video I have ever seen, this one gives me ongoing chills throughout. This is about as close as you get to a perfect video, representing the perfect live version of a really special studio recording. The whole is so much better than the sum of the parts, but my gosh, each part is stunning. Not a single performer brings anything less than an "A" game.

    Asia and BJ @ the 6min mark....world music beat. the original song had huge drum and percussion on it, with airy ethereal guitar, and the superb bass. All this song needs is the voice, you can put the voice with any other instruments singularly and it would still be a great song. Probably my most favorite song ever.

    Peter Gabriel is one of the few that can pull off an international sound and not make it seem cheezy or forced. he is a master.

    Gabriel is a strange superstar. Pretty much everything he has is amazing. Here Comes The Flood, Come Talk to Me, Mercy Street, Don't Give up, Shock the Monkey, Solsbury Hill... So many.
