  • @RastaSaiyaman
    @RastaSaiyaman 4 года назад +235

    In "the musical box" documentary about Genesis, Peter Gabriel said that he was happy and relieved when he heard the "A trick of the tail" album, as it it showed that the band would be perfectly capable of continuing without him and that Phil was doing a STELLAR job singing.
    Which is why this song has that lyric of "Today I don't need a replacement, I told them what the smile on my face meant!" It was a big thumbs up to his former band mates "Well done chaps!"

    • @jlwilder8436
      @jlwilder8436 3 года назад +28

      Not quite. When he wrote this...
      Solsbury Hill is an intense, brutally honest and angry song
      -that's what's so cool about it
      And the line you just mentioned (at the time that he wrote it) was actually more of a "f*** you"
      -to his (former) band mates AND anyone saying he couldn't be (what he'd be) without Genesis.
      He couldn't (not even possibly) sing this song in the last 30 + years the way he wrote it, because he did great (solo) and got over any/all of the stuff he was writing about here.
      I love how (obviously on the album, not live so much) each verse gets angrier; those feelings are so many decades behind him that this song for a LONG time has been more if a happy/sing-a-long.
      If there was a "well done mates" it came much later.

      @@jlwilder8436 The angry side of the song was directed to the music critics who wrote him off as a traitor and saboteur.
      That he had no squabble with his former band mates was proven when Phil Played on "Peter Gabriel III" and how Tony and Mike have since told how Peter showed up at the "A trick of the tail" sessions just to say hello and hear how things were going.
      As I said before, Peter found the stuff they came up with really good.

      @@RastaSaiyaman that makes good enough sense to me. I don't know why (over half a year ago) I seemed to make it sound like it was aimed at his former band.
      Maybe because, in my head, reflecting on the contrast between Peter's unique solo work, and (Phil-led) Genesis' very pop centric stuff that followed, it almost seemed like there had to be some tension in their split...
      I'm just glad they did split, though, because it seems like they were both best at what they did post Peter's Genesis.

    • @trizvanov
      @trizvanov 2 года назад +11

      @@jlwilder8436 That's a complete and utter rubbish. He always stayed close to his former band mates (they were friends since post high school days) and this most definitely was not a FU to them.
      The complete exhaustion from the touring of 1975 and then the difficult birth of his daughter is what was the main cause of him going solo.
      The lyrics are more about his own doubts about surviving his life outside of the old band. Nothing to do with his old mates.
      This is like with The Beatles, people come up with all sorts of crazy stories, when in fact the real life is far less dramatic.

Every generation prefers the music of their teens to maybe early '20s. Of course the majority of YOUR friends aren't going to like today's music, just as people in their 80s and 90s don't like YOUR music! On the other hand, I believe it is a reflection on the listener if they cannot at least learn to appreciate or respect the music from another generation.

    I was a kid when this song was released, it always takes me back to then and reminds me of all the missed opportunities and twists of fate I’ve encountered in life

    The ProgFather as a young man. Superb!! I love the attitude with which he sings this, so soon, still, after leaving Genesis.

    He's so nervous and self conscious. Which he need not be, given the genius that he possesses. It's kinda cute to see that he was once so young, insecure and uncertain. As we all were at that age.

    I can't believe he wrote this song when he was so young. I mean I know he wrote other completely amazing songs even earlier, but I always thought for some reason that this one came later in his career.

      @richardthomas1566 2 года назад +1

      Your absolutely right it’s just incredible and makes you think of some other power the songs that were written by people so young look at some of Jackson Browne songs “running on empty “ really empty ? he was like 22 when he wrote that song. Lots of other song writers from the 60s-80 were the same they wrote songs like they lived 2 life times. John Prine writing a song like “ Hello in their “ at 24

    Its like the character that played in genesis was still here. His eyes are full of anger and irony. Luckily, years later he was able to relax and truly show "his other self". I love you peter
