Always brings a tear to my eye with the line, “‘Son,’ he said, ‘grab your things. I’ve come to take you home.’”
The days when your father could save you from whatever trouble you were in by coming to get you to take you home, and imparting words of wisdom on you.
@@nealm6764 Such true words.
For us Genesis fans at the time, this was a significant moment. Gabriel leaving behind “progressive” rock for something different but, as it turns out equally artistic and creative and then moving on to a career which would reach the heights of pop music (the album “So”) and then “world music”. He is easily one of the most important and influential artists of the past 50 years.
Plus when he was young he was a skinny androgynous handsome lad and is now a somewhat portly bald guy. So he was perfect object lesson for my daughter when she was obsessed with the stars of her youth “hey, I would say, they will end up looking like your dad in a few years so calm down. “
Very true, but too much going on his life at that time
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
The second part of your post is brilliant because its so true. The same can be said for the guys obsessing with pretty female stars, as they too will end up looking like mom and for them might even came sooner.
@@carlossaraiva8213 as a child I was in love with Stevie Nicks.... I wouldn't hit it with a brick today. 🤣
@@Unclesmokey314 hahahaha 👍
“I was feeling part of the scenery, I walked right out of the machinery”. The words I sang to myself as I left a corporate job after 25 years.
It's about time. Now live a little.
I managed to avoid the corporatocracy in my life but I fear for my descendants.
❤ Congratulations. I did that 11 years ago. Absolutely left a 'lucrative' yet "pain in the ass" job in IT solely for some peace of mind. They even send me a few dollars every month, and I don't even work for them anymore...LOL!
I feel the same as a long-time educator
I'm right there with you. I left Solomon Smith Barney after 9/11 (I was in building 7 lobby when the first plane hit). I went full-time into my side job, vending machines. I was "reborn."
Peter Gabriel's music is loaded with metaphors and emotional verses. His music is truly timeless. I would recommend Shock the Monkey.

I've always listened to lyrics, even as a kid. I remember puzzling over Peter Gabriel's songs in the back of the car, trying to figure it all out. Lol. Still haven't really
MTV played the shit out of that video back in the day...
This is about a person who is examining his life and not happy where he is and making a decision to make a change.
Greatest Peter Gabriel song
I was on top of Solsbury hill only 2 weeks ago on a beautiful early spring day, fantastic views overlooking Bath/Somerset.❤️👍
Peter Gabriel was the original Genesis singer, after Lamb Lies Down he left and Phil Collins took over.
The song "Solsbury Hill" is about the point when he left Genesis, it's about his Father (The Eagle) coming to pick him up from the hotel he was at as he couldn't deal with the in-fighting in Genesis anymore and needed to get out for his own sanity. There is a lot to the song that is yet to be explained fully if Peter Gabriel ever does!
Watch the version of "Solsbury Hill" from The Real World Live video, where the stage revolves and they are all walking on it, but going nowhere, except Peter Gabriel who is cycling around the stage. He always tried to make the shows an experience you would remember!
I was watching one of those professor of rock things, and I think another reason that he left Genesis was that he felt that it started to become to formulatic for him maybe? That they became very popular and he felt that they would continue to do what made them sell lots of hit record, and not take more chances creatively. It wasn't till I was in my late teens maybe that I found out he was the singer before Phil. I like both incarnations, and i'm finally getting around to explore the Gabriel version.
There wasn't any infighting within the group. They actually knew Gabriel was leaving the group long before he did. The entire group felt that there songs had taken a cookie cutter form of what they knew would sell and were afraid to change what was extremely popular. They all felt like they were just another cog in the machine. Gabriel decided he was going to leave the group so he could feel like he was expressing himself. It was an extremely scary decision because he was giving up guaranteed success for something he wasn't sure would even work. Even though the rest of the band felt the same as him they decided to continue Genesis because it was extremely successful and they didn't want to walk away from that. They all would eventually take up side projects but they still stayed together as Genesis.
I use to be obsessed with this song in high school great song
emotion is what art is.
Great song one of the best songs ever actually
This song IS happy
An amazing song that is largely about his decision to leave the group Genesis. What an artist! It’s also a good idea not to lend much meaning to his videos. They frequently are their own thing separate from the song.
Another great song from PG is San Jacinto.
Great song.
I took the closing of the video as the music industry being an assembly line of cabbage (which is slang for money), but him choosing love (whether it's with a partner or just doing what he loves) and weirdness/creativity rather than keep doing the same thing with Genesis.
Truly one of the great songs.
A song explaining the inner conflict of a great artist feeling part of the machinery (the band Genesis)...who wanted to go back to his creative roots as a solo artist. Solsbury Hill was an actual place Gabriel visited to find inspiration or do some soul searching.
Didn’t he live nearby?
"That's my empty silhouette, who close their eyes but still can see"..."Today I don't need a replacement. I tell them what the smile on my face meant."
100% is #1 on my funeral song list.
This hits home with me played this at my brothers funeral 😢but great song 👌🏻🎶❤
I consider myself privileged to have seen Peter Gabriel live during his Secret World 1993 tour. It was an extraordinary experience.
I also feel the same way - got to see that concert(and front row seats when our original seats far in the back were not there because of a mess up😎), Vegas when he did the entire ‘So’ Album, and when he toured with Sting : D
Jealous, I was too young and dumb at the time to appreciate the greatness of it, whilst I was standing firm on my classic rock and 80s hard rock/metal foundation. At least, we have recordings that captured the brilliance of that moment in time for me to experience and enjoy, though not live and in person. I always did like the song. I play guitar and appreciate the instrument and that opening acoustic rhythm grabbed me immediately and never let go. It took me more time to appreciate the subtle intricacies of the percussion and the depth of meaning in the lyrics. Truly a brilliant artist. It is easy to see and understand now why he would collaborate with an artist like Kate Bush. I’ll be gentle on myself and say shallow rather than dumb. Fortunately, at least in this sense, time and experience changes us all.
You’re so lucky. I’ve watched shaking the tree on RUclips of that live tour and just seeing it recorded though a screen is an amazing dare I say a spiritual experience!! It must have been 🤬 awesome to have been there!!
I’ve seen other reactors react to shaking the the tree live on that tour and it’s the best!! I’ve asked Brad & Lex to do it but unfortunately they only did the lyric video so totally missed out on that amazing vibe. I wish they would do it, they’d love it. But never mind I tried.
Secret World: Actually the version you need to listen.
When I’m home this song makes me feel warm and cozy. When I’m away, it makes me homesick.
Spiritual awakening.
Brad encroaching on Lex territory by nailing the vibe of the sound of the music first this time! 👏
If I recall well Peter Gabriel went to a boarding school called charterhouse school - so when it says "get your things, I've come to take you home" ... it might well mean that at end of term, the joy of going back home to his family as a young boy
I think it's a melancholy emotion. "stepped right out of the machinery" and "I've come to take you home" signifies to me the end of something important but also hopefully the start of something better.
He was experiencing a profound spiritual awakening.
Simply, a lovely song.
For me, this was just his farewell song to Genesis. A pretty big band in the 1970's and at its peak (well, it was pretty big under Phil Collins too) but his heart was telling him to leave.
These lyrics are so amazing. Because they're packed with imagery and metaphor but they're not rand or vague. They're have a real meaning. Many artists struggle with the balance of storytelling with plain language and ambiguous metaphor. This hits it right in the middle. They can be applied to your own feelings about any kind of change or separation from something, like a breakup, but they also exactly fit what he is talking about for him, which was leaving his former band and breaking out on his own. ::chef kiss::
all praise the Cabbage Queen
“I walked right out of the machinery /
My heart goin “Boom! Boom! BOOM!”
For Peter Gabriel, leaving the comfort and ceaseless success of Genesis must have been a pretty huge deal. Like deciding to be born. Most people dont have the weight of a decision like that in their hand - external forces tend to force them in a particular direction. But when those external forces are personal, and not easily explained to the fans or public, that has to be a pretty gut-wrenching thing to feel like you have to do.
Good for him, and good for all of us. We got this inspirational song about moving on to the next step, and double the fantastic music from him and former Genesis bandmate Phil Collins. Plenty of talent to around there, glad we could enjoy.
I had on my bucket list that when I finally went to England I would go to Solsbury Hill and play this song at the top. I did it a few years ago. I love this song :)
Peter Gabriel is a true musical genius and pioneer of the music video. The one you watched on the stream was one of the first true music videos 1977.
Peter is one of the greatest writers this song means so much to me about dropping out of the bull that's going on world wide, and I was even there on Solsbury hill.
It sounds to me like Peter Gabriel had another worldly experience up on that hill, “to keep in silence I resigned, my friends would think I was a nut” and then the reference to a biblical experience “turning water into wine” and if he spoke about it his career would be over “open doors would soon be shut” and he tried to continue as normal but could not, that’s when he knew things had to change and his new life began with him severing the connection from his old life “the band” and him following his true path, that experience on that hill changed his life & showed him his true self, which set him free. 🥰 I have always felt a warmth of love from Peter Gabriel & he expresses that warmth & love in his music. 💯% ♥️✌️
♥ this!
Brad and Lex --- here are the lyrics to Solsbury Hill
Climbing up on Solsbury Hill
I could see the city light
Wind was blowing, time stood still
Eagle flew out of the night
He was something to observe
Came in close, I heard a voice
Standing, stretching every nerve
I had to listen, had no choice
I did not believe the information
Just had to trust imagination
My heart going "Boom-boom-boom"
"Son", he said
"Grab your things, I've come to take you home"
To keep in silence I resigned
My friends would think I was a nut
Turning water into wine
Open doors would soon be shut
So I went from day to day
Though my life was in a rut
'Til I thought of what I'd say
Which connection I should cut
I was feeling part of the scenery
I walked right out of the machinery
My heart going "Boom-boom-boom"
"Hey", he said
"Grab your things, I've come to take you home"
Hey, back home
When illusion spin her net
I'm never where I wanna be
And liberty, she pirouette
When I think that I am free
Watched by empty silhouettes
Who close their eyes but still can see
No one taught them etiquette
I will show another me
Today I don't need a replacement
I'll tell them what the smile on my face meant
My heart going "Boom-boom-boom"
"Hey", I said
"You can keep my things, they've come to take me home"

In context I can totally see how this was about his decision to leave Genesis.
Brad and Lex aren´t deaf,that´s not the problem.
and by the way....Brad and Lex don´t read comments.
@@zimbo65a ---- they also don't need a someone speaking for them.
Kick rocks Troll
@@zimbo65a Sometimes they do read comments, actually….
@@13_13k you are right,Mr Speaker.
Great lyrics. Emotional is the bomb.
There is a brilliant live version of this, with Peter at his extravagant best... almost like a circus! 💙🎶✌️
It's about making a change in life...and finding self discovery.. ... and the anxiety involved in the process.
This song is extremely nostalgic for me. Parents used to play this when we’d have friends and family over. One of my favourite songs!
Have you ever just liked a song for he sound? Loved this song never knowing what is was about until reading comments here. It just seemed to relax me.
In your eyes, secret world tour, one of the best live performances ever. Absolutely do that, if not reaction just for yourselves. This song is incredibly interesting, very introspective, nailing the idea of being in deep conflict, feeling the need to make a change that no one around you gets.
It's nice to see Brad get the emotional side of a song.
This is a song about reflection as Brad suggested.
This is a song about the hardships and success of leaving the band GENESIS. He said "today I don't need a replacement" who ended up being Phil Collins. The music sequence is the opposite of what Genesis did and It's also off timing. Which is amazing that it works musicly and that it became a big hit at the time. You should watch this song performed live he changed it up and made it better. PG has always been one of my fav musical artist. He truly makes you feel the music and it also takes you to a space and place like no other artist can. Other songs “San Jacinto” “Biko” “I Don’t Remember” “Lead A Normal Life” “Lay Your Hands On Me” "the Book of Love" He truly is an amazing artist.
I love that off-kilter beat. Count it out--one and two and three and four and...--and you see it's in 7. Gives it such a cool feel.
Much like a lot of genesis stuff
Great song! Peter Gabriel wrote this when he left (The Band) Genesis.
One of my favorite Peter Gabriel songs....great tune.
Pete Gabriel is great!
Saw him in concert & he is amazing live.
Dang....our Brad is really growing right before eyes👍
I remember buying his first album 45 years ago and absolutely loved this song, I still have it and also the following 5 albums that he made. Always a superb song writer and performer.
This is one of the most beautiful pop songs ever.
Gabriel has said of the song's meaning, "It's about being prepared to lose what you have for what you might get ... It's about letting go."
Je suis fan de PETER GABRIEL
merci beaucoup Brad & Lex
BEAUTIFUL SONG
he is such a brilliant artist! listen to his everything! you will not be disappointed!
For this was always about finding that perfect moment and time. Feeling nothing but joy and then you get that tap on on the shouder and the fleeting wonderful turns back into the daily.
Brad this truly is a happy song. And Lex, it certainly is a break up song too but a happy one! Those are suppose to be "happy/joyful noises" at the end. It tells the story of Peter Gabriel leaving his original band, Genesis and going out on his own. What a great song from a brilliant artist. Hope y'all liked it!!
Peter Gabriel is an amazing song writer, check out his song “Biko” a powerful song about anti-apartheid activist Steven Biko.
THIS.
This might be the perfect song...sonically and lyrically. Just phenomenal! Thanks!
I like that these reaction videos remind me of songs and artist that I have not listened to in a while. Now listening to Peter Gabriel The Book of Love.
I know most people focus on the lyrics to this song, which is understandable, but my favorite part is the music. It's just so beautiful.
So glad you got to Solsbury Hill! Loved this song since childhood. ✌️
This man made so many other artists careers known and visible. He is very much one of the most important in music of our time.
OMG... one of My ALL-TIME Favorite songs. THANK YOU.
Solsbury Hill overlooks Bath, England, the 'city lights' in the song. Peter Gabriel's recording studio Realworld, is located a few miles to the east of Bath in the village of Box.
There's a gorge up in the hills, a certain boulder protrudes towards the top, I love to stand on that boulder and look down the valley. This song always follows me up there.
Great songs and great music songs live
Always loved this Peter Gabriel song! He has such a rich catalog of great music. A very literary songwriter; everything is symbolic.
This is a very intriguing song. It is written in 7/4 time, but the lyric in each line concludes on the 1 downbeat. Fascinating.
Love this song. "Son, grab your things, I've come to take you home," sounds like a father picking up his son from boarding school or somesuch.
Solisbury Hill is a real place. I used to live at the bottom of it many years ago.
I think it's about spiritual ascension and upon death graduating from this place and reality. The lettuce harvest is biblical and the ending" you can keep my thing They've come to take me home". Beautiful.
I loved this song so much back when. Thank you.
One of the best odd time signature songs ever….. this one is in 7/4
All except the “come to take you home” parts that are all 2x 4/4. It’s brilliant!!
So awesome to see you doing some more Peter Gabriel. His work always comes across as deep, thoughtful and artistic. I like to imagine if his songs were photographs, they'd belong in a gallery.
I'd love to recommend two very different songs:
Red Rain
I Grieve
Love this song as having older sisters I grew up listening to there taste in music which includes Peter Gabriel
"Mercy Street" from the great album "So" is a beautiful (and sad) piece of music, I highly recommend it!
Didn't really like this song much when I first heard it but it has definitely grown on me over the past few years.
peter Gabriel= legend!
Peter has such a great voice and this song is one for the ages.
Gabriel does such interesting music. One of my favorites. Thanks for sharing your reaction
Love this song
P.Gabriel what a talented - creative lad
when he went solo all he could do was turn out hit after hit
I appreciate that music means different things to different people, but I will never forget the first time I really heard the lyrics to this song. I have never felt more elated and thoroughly frightened at the same time at the thought of an eagle talking to me, telling me it's time to go "home" (ascend to heaven, maybe?).
I love Peter Gabriel's music.
Bought this album the day it was released.
Saw him 4 times in small venues.
I used to listen to this late at night on FM radio with headphones on. It was sooo beautiful.
Peter is one of the best live performers. If you react to a live video of his, you will love it.
Yes the live version is amazing ! The round stage and he is riding the bike !
This song is about him leaving the band Genesis. He went for a walk up Solsbury hill in England to get some fresh air and clear his mind and this song came out of that.
brad at last you got it right back to happier times with loved ones
I have posted in the past, 77 days of music in my library and the was the song I chose as my ring tone.
Hits me right in the feels every time 🏹
Love Peter Gabriel. He is truly an artist! My favorite song of his is " In The Blood Of Eden". Touches my soul! A masterpiece about love & life!
You guys should re-do *In Your Eyes* --but do the live version under the dome. That was a great tour live, and it's a brilliant version of that song that is even better than the album version you did. And unless you've seen him live, like Bowie, it's really hard to capture who and what Gabriel is.
Do Jeffrey Gaines' version
Please do this
I don't' know what you call it, but the rhyming every other line in the song, is so clever. This is a fantastic song. This is about him leaving Genesis way back when, though for years I thought it was about aliens picking him up from Earth, lol.
It's called an ABAB rhyme scheme
this song has such a vibe to it.
Can't hear this song without thinking about England...it has that sound...and my late wife who I met there...sweet sorrow.
These two never get symbolism, they are so literal, just think a little deeper.
you two ought to react to the video "peter gabriel solsbury hill live dna". it's a MAGNIFICENT compilation of this song performed live over the years. It really shows the vibrancy of Peter Gabriel and the band in concert. It's a MUST.
My first out door Arena concert. Peter Gabriel opened for David Bowie. Amazing.
Love this tune....
To me it's always been a song of escape, like Goodbye Yellowbrick Road. He was feeling part of the greenery, he stepped right out of the machinery... And was free.
I'm jealous of anyone hearing this for the first time
Love this tune
