this is the song which has been with me daily (mostly) for half a century (nearly), my foothold, my comfort, my compassion. PH is my saintly companion...
I love all sorts of music - classical , opera , rock, folk etc but for me Peter Hammill is the one who really does it. Been listening to his work since 1974. His songs turn me, a world weary 69 year old, into an emotional wreck! A lump in my throat, a tear in my eye and a melting heart. This is exceptional.
moi aussi j aime plein de trucs rt depuis de nombreuses annees a fond dans le jazz mais quand je decouvre grace a you tube des types pareils je me dis que putain les annees 70 ( ne en 65 helas ) ct vraiment une epoque de dingue y a qu a ecouter et on se dit wouaou j ai loupe un truc ou quoi j avais decouvert vandergraft generator completement par hasard a la radio ca m avait marque moi le fan de krimson et surtout uk....et plein d autre....peter hamill c la classe !!!!!!
The nearest to him in skíll àre the Cure...........if you like Peter & VDGG., try them.........totally different but English & thoughtful.........especially the long, dark tracks...........
Peter Hamill wrote and performed some excellent songs and tunes with his voice, his guitar and his keyboards. An amazing musical genius. And his group, Van der graaf Generator made some excellent albums too.
It's not easy on the ear, it's not that melodic, it's wordy, it's exhausting, it's roughly bashed-out piano work. But it is colossal genius. No one has even been like this except Peter Hammill. Exhilarating.
Gary Spencer I'd say it's wordy but it manages to stay on the artistic side of prolix. I think it works because of the way he declaims at times and then lets loose with the shouts and wails. Also, his word choices are often striking.
@@written12 I don't think Gary Spencer was saying anything negative about it or saying 'it doesn't work'. To me, it's like he's saying, "this is why the general POPulation doesn't want to hear it" ;)
i'm feeling him too. just learned of Peter Hammill today. His music and Robert Wyatt's are the closest I've come to something similar to my Originals I'm posting very soon in 2025. I would be honored if Peter Hammill fans told me what you think of my upcoming releases. Some are new and some are from the late 80's/90's. if you subscribe, i will deliver something totally unique. that's all i have is unique
I saw PH sing this at the Wigmore Hall in October 1973. It was the last song in the set and the lights dimmed as he sang it. He did Refugees as an encore and forgot the words and members of the audience had to help him out. Strangely enough, I was sat next to Robert Fripp! Great times!!!
@@bf1133mé too.,.........the blokes from VDGG, sat behind us..........nice guys ......apologised for spreading out........lovely, posh joint...........usually do small classical gigs........well impressed.......
I saw VDGG live 3 times when I was a student in Manchester in the late 70s. The first time was on a rainy night at Manchester Opera House. Some of us queued to go backstage to meet the band. I briefly talked to Hugh Banton, got the band's autographs, and took one or two B/W Polaroids of the band. I took one of Peter Hammill; it developed before our eyes and I showed it to Peter - who laughingly said to his bandmates: "I really look manic there!". And he did!
Probably the greatest musician of all time. Just look at his expression here, just what I imagine Beethoven would have looked like if video capture had been possible at that time.
+ClayMation because he is not. I get somewhat annoyed when I read bollocks on internet. He is so famous that he is not on deezer. Or on Kaufland. also, Peter Gabriel is hardly famous. fkn. Freddie Mercury is famous.
Genesis was not commercial before 76. They never had a hit in the charts. And yet, they were selling millions, and could fill up big venues, without a single hit. Those were the days...
I've seen Peter twice at the Bataclan in Paris, and VDGG once. Thinking this venue is the place where such marvelous moments have been shared, and now...
PH's voice chills your blood then boils it,leaving you cold in a warm place.His words are genius..fans know this..if you show up here, LISTEN.His beauty is beyond music.
Auguri cantore dell' animo introspettivo della tua poesia in musica !!!!! La carica del Generatore non si è ancora esaurita ,cento e passa di questi giorni PETER HAMMILL !!!!!!
Loved his music since 1973..saw him with van der graaf generator in 76 at the Birmingham odeon. Ive got most of his albums and most of vddg albums. I never get tired of them..in fact ive got three copies of in camera!!
This song is originally from PH's second solo album, "Chameleon in the Shadow of the Night", which would've been new when this video was made. VdGG had just gone on hiatus for three years, although at the time it was unknown if they would reconvene. I believe this is the first time I've seen PH perform solo with a real piano! It's so much more expressive and rich than the electric ones he usually has to use.
Immense artiste que j'ai découvert en 74 avec " The silent corner ..." Ce fut un vrai "trip" pour moi !.. Sa voix m'a ému et littéralement transporté !..Depuis, j'ai écouté une bonne partie de son son oeuvre gigantesque. Il y a des trésors et des moins bons, mais rien n'est à jeter . Dans chaque album on trouve de belles choses . Un de mes artistes préféré, avec aussi R.Wyatt et Kévin Coyne
I promise you, I won't leave a clue: No tell-tale remark, no print from my shoe Still, a steady trail to the water's edge... I will keep my pledge to the end: I intend to go free No more rushing around, no more travelling chess; I guess I'd better sit down, you know I do need the rest.... Yes, it's time to resign with equanimity and placidity From the game I can't explain; I can't relate.... Have I done it all too late? Now is the time for the commission to report; Till lately, I thought I'd been planted Trying hard to make it all come real Permission to feel is ungranted But now it's happening I'd like to keep it private if I can; Last words, last looks, make a final stand Now my number's come up on the Pools I guess I'll board the Titanic for a cruise.... Now is the time to make my status clear Too late, I fear, and lonely As friends and enemies traverse the stage; All in a rage disown me And all the pit-props shatter into dust about my ears: Memory and conscience, hope and fear As I crawl out further on the limb Something tells me I am crawling In to unknown prophecies and lives The rainbow's end is hemmed around with knives.... As I stand on the boards and the stage lights grow dim Shall I go out of doors, or shall I maybe go in? Have I reached the point when I should take my cue And follow you and your signs? I can't remember my lines As the prompter cat-calls And the cards all fall In the strike All the pages are thin, all the corners are curled Does the starshine fall in through my window on the world? Or am I living out (the seeds of doubt) a chronicle of revenge? The willow bends As do my hands; Do you understand? And will you still be my friend in the end? When my mouth falls slack And I can't summon up another tune Shall I then look back and say I did it all Too soon?
Paradoxical, Great Peter Hammill : "I can't explain, I can't relate.... Have I done it all too late?"... "Shall I then look back and say I did it all too soon?". Thanks...
Peter Hammill music, and his way of performing it, is very demanding stuff. Obviously it includes what he did with VDGG. I am a big prog fan and for me the Peter Hammill's world was the hardest to get into, but one of the most rewarding once the price of entry was paid through several listenings without immediate rewards, until the barrier is broken and you get into it. You need to get accostumed to so many things that are not easy to grasp at first. That being said, I discovered this world when I was 18 and still a relatively unexperienced listener. All that to say that the relative lack of commercial success of Hammill never surprised me. It is demanding, deep and often dark.
Oh my God!...I loved this so very much when I was young.I never thought there is filmed PH - Material like this, from that magic times. Big FANX for posting this!!!!
I was at this gig aged 15 … also saw them at the roundhouse the following April, supported by the Spiders From Mars (minus Bowie & Ronson) and the 101ers, fronted by the soon to leave and form The Clash, Joe Strummer.
Voce e pianoforte !!!! Peter HAMMILL , mette in risalto l'anima musicale di questo straordinario brano che si trova sul suo secondo splendido album solista CHAMELEON IN THE SHADOW OF THE NIGHT , Sicuramente tra i miei preferiti della sua discografia !!!!!
Ha visuto sempre in ombra,anche con vdgg, senza cercare di conquistare platee geandi, ha composto e scritto come fanno veri artisti,per esprimere se stesso e continua farlo

Sí, es hora de renunciar con ecuanimidad y placidez Del juego No puedo explicar; No puedo relatar ... ¿Lo he hecho demasiado tarde? Ahora es el momento de que la comisión informe; Hasta hace poco, pensaba que me habían plantado. Intentando hacer que todo se vuelva real, El permiso para sentir no está garantizado. Pero ahora está sucediendo, me gustaría mantenerlo privado si puedo; Últimas palabras, últimos looks, toma una posición final. Ahora mi número aparece en las Piscinas, Supongo que abordaré el Titanic para un crucero ... Ahora es el momento de aclarar mi estado, Demasiado tarde, me temo, y solo, Como amigos y enemigos atraviesan el escenario; Todos en un arrepentimiento me desheredan. Y todos los puntales se rompen en polvo alrededor de mis oídos: Memoria y conciencia, esperanza y miedo. A medida que me arrastro más lejos en la extremidad Algo me dice que me estoy arrastrando En profecías y vidas desconocidas El final del arcoiris está rodeado de cuchillos ... Mientras estoy de pie en las tablas y las luces del escenario se vuelven débiles, ¿Debo irme al aire libre, o debo entrar? ¿He llegado al punto en el que debería seguir mi ejemplo? Y te sigo a ti y a tus signos? No puedo recordar mis líneas Como las llamadas de gato prompter Y todas las cartas caen En el ataque. Todas las páginas son delgadas, todas las esquinas están curvadas. ¿La estrella del universo cae a través de mi ventana en el mundo? ¿O estoy viviendo (las semillas de la duda) una crónica de venganza? Las curvas de sauce Como lo hacen mis manos; ¿Lo entiendes? ¿Y seguirás siendo mi amigo al final? Cuando mi boca se queda floja Y no puedo convocar otra canción, ¿Debo mirar hacia atrás y decir Lo hice todo ¿Demasiado pronto?
Музыка Хеммилла , всегда была ТРУДНА для восприятия . Однако , для утончённой аудитории , муз-изощрения Питера , всегда интересны , приятны и достойны высоких оценок .

My man out there just casually sat next to Robert Fripp

One of those geniuses who got half of what theywould have deserved.
And what a voice
Probably the greatest musician of all time. Just look at his expression here, just what I imagine Beethoven would have looked like if video capture had been possible at that time.
+Gabriele 95
Why do you think he was not as popular as Peter Gabriel or other icons?
Van der Graaf wasn´t so commercial as Genesis. More obscure, and sophisticated, similar, not musically, to Magma.
+ClayMation because he is not. I get somewhat annoyed when I read bollocks on internet. He is so famous that he is not on deezer. Or on Kaufland. also, Peter Gabriel is hardly famous. fkn. Freddie Mercury is famous.

Peter Hammill is an awesome gift to the music world, Pawn Hearts album ahead of its time beyond thank you Qweis76.
It's not ahead of its time. But it is a golden album. Man-Erg is one of the most beautiful songs
All songs of this musical genius are masterpieces
This is what music should be ! Intensity, emotions, honesty, dedication, and no compromise. You can hear it in full here!
simply a pearl of true music
I've been listening to Peter for almost 40 years, and he still keeps all his strength.
A model of artistic integrity.
I've seen Peter twice at the Bataclan in Paris, and VDGG once. Thinking this venue is the place where such marvelous moments have been shared, and now...
Were you in Bataclan in 1976 for VdGG concert (World record tour) ?
No, unfortunately. I discovered VDG shortly after that.
@@Gnomaxx I was in Montreal and Trois-Rivières (Quebec october76) for the World record tour/ just amazing
What a great interpretation of a colossal song! I think in the 70's he gave the best of himself. Not for everyone.

Totally brilliant..........live astonishingly talented.........too clever..........

Mr. Hamill ... My Hat is off to You . Thank You ✓ 🇺🇸♦️🇺🇸 💥💨
From soul to soul, straightforward like no other sounds
I promise you, I won't leave a clue:
No tell-tale remark, no print from my shoe
Still, a steady trail to the water's edge...
I will keep my pledge to the end:
I intend to go free
No more rushing around, no more travelling chess;
I guess I'd better sit down, you know I do need the rest....
Yes, it's time to resign with equanimity and placidity
From the game
I can't explain;
I can't relate....
Have I done it all too late?
Now is the time for the commission to report;
Till lately, I thought I'd been planted
Trying hard to make it all come real
Permission to feel is ungranted
But now it's happening I'd like to keep it private if I can;
Last words, last looks, make a final stand
Now my number's come up on the Pools
I guess I'll board the Titanic for a cruise....
Now is the time to make my status clear
Too late, I fear, and lonely
As friends and enemies traverse the stage;
All in a rage disown me
And all the pit-props shatter into dust about my ears:
Memory and conscience, hope and fear
As I crawl out further on the limb
Something tells me I am crawling
In to unknown prophecies and lives
The rainbow's end is hemmed around with knives....
As I stand on the boards and the stage lights grow dim
Shall I go out of doors, or shall I maybe go in?
Have I reached the point when I should take my cue
And follow you and your signs?
I can't remember my lines
As the prompter cat-calls
And the cards all fall
In the strike
All the pages are thin, all the corners are curled
Does the starshine fall in through my window on the world?
Or am I living out (the seeds of doubt) a chronicle of revenge?
The willow bends
As do my hands;
Do you understand?
And will you still be my friend in the end?
When my mouth falls slack
And I can't summon up another tune
Shall I then look back and say
I did it all
Too soon?
mon grand regret, c'est de ne pas avoir été devant la télé, ce jour là. Merci à l'INA.
Grande grande Peter ...you are the Best
Excelente tema, definitivamente eriza la piel.

Then and now (as in last week) the intensity is breathtaking. Thanks for 3 beautifull concerts in Holland
Paradoxical, Great Peter Hammill : "I can't explain, I can't relate.... Have I done it all too late?"... "Shall I then look back and say I did it all too soon?". Thanks...
Spiritual, sensory and rebellious, music of this composer reveals secret impostures, explores serene pleasures, a world of resurfacing dreams
Genio assoluto del prog d'avanguardia anni '70, ma la storia continua...

Thanks very much for this!!! Excellent performance and a rare treat of live Hammill recordings from that period.

Sí, es hora de renunciar con ecuanimidad y placidez
Del juego
No puedo explicar;
No puedo relatar ...
¿Lo he hecho demasiado tarde?
Ahora es el momento de que la comisión informe;
Hasta hace poco, pensaba que me habían plantado.
Intentando hacer que todo se vuelva real,
El permiso para sentir no está garantizado.
Pero ahora está sucediendo, me gustaría mantenerlo privado si puedo;
Últimas palabras, últimos looks, toma una posición final.
Ahora mi número aparece en las Piscinas,
Supongo que abordaré el Titanic para un crucero ...
Ahora es el momento de aclarar mi estado,
Demasiado tarde, me temo, y solo,
Como amigos y enemigos atraviesan el escenario;
Todos en un arrepentimiento me desheredan.
Y todos los puntales se rompen en polvo alrededor de mis oídos:
Memoria y conciencia, esperanza y miedo.
A medida que me arrastro más lejos en la extremidad
Algo me dice que me estoy arrastrando
En profecías y vidas desconocidas
El final del arcoiris está rodeado de cuchillos ...
Mientras estoy de pie en las tablas y las luces del escenario se vuelven débiles,
¿Debo irme al aire libre, o debo entrar?
¿He llegado al punto en el que debería seguir mi ejemplo?
Y te sigo a ti y a tus signos?
No puedo recordar mis líneas
Como las llamadas de gato prompter
Y todas las cartas caen
En el ataque.
Todas las páginas son delgadas, todas las esquinas están curvadas.
¿La estrella del universo cae a través de mi ventana en el mundo?
¿O estoy viviendo (las semillas de la duda) una crónica de venganza?
Las curvas de sauce
Como lo hacen mis manos;
¿Lo entiendes?
¿Y seguirás siendo mi amigo al final?
Cuando mi boca se queda floja
Y no puedo convocar otra canción,
¿Debo mirar hacia atrás y decir
Lo hice todo
¿Demasiado pronto?
Maravilloso y profundo...entender ahora lo que hammil nos dice.Muchas gracias maria.
Музыка Хеммилла , всегда была ТРУДНА для восприятия . Однако , для утончённой аудитории , муз-изощрения Питера , всегда интересны , приятны и достойны высоких оценок .
Что касается Э Т О Й вещи , она хороша : взрывна и г р о т е с к н а .
Особенно красив и драматичен вокал мистера Питера Хеммилла .
Одобрил .
