Washing of the water

[InsertDeepLyrics]

Is that PG on piano? Doesn't sound like his style, but it fits; kinda moves the song to a small church in the middle of the woods.

[chinatree1]

@InsertDeepLyrics Think it is Jools Holland on piano.

und danach muss gleich Digging in the Dirt her

[encanta61]

Deep, deeper and deeper still, life goes on, while the pain works itself out into a pearl of great beauty in our lives. After so many losses and so much inner pain. It is so difficult to put these feelings into words... yet here comes Peter Gabriel, who seems to read our hearts and faithfully "transcribes"

our emotions and longings for those we lost or left us behind. Carry me high to washing of the water...til at last I make peace with Life and Death, and also rest in peace. --- God bless---

[lacieduke]

never can seem to find this CD-- it's always a special order--then becomes too expensive--my brothers birthday is coming up on March 23rd--it will be ten years since he passed--his twin sister is still alive--and sometimes I wish it was she and not my brother that was not with us--does that make me a terrible person?

[lacieduke]

Sorry I meant to say him not see--

[lacieduke]

Thanks sooo much but sometimes it is so hard--see had a twin sister and after their high school together-- I was there-- my mom called me his little mother--and they asked me to go down and see him in Clearwater and try to convince him to come back to Ohio--never gonna happen coz he felt he was like under their thumb-sometimes still feel guilty save him-- that's why they sent we there-- coz I was the only one he listened to--but I couldn't pressure him--sometimes it haunts me to my bones

[lacieduke]

my brother and I liked this whole album--he and I listened to it when I went to see him in Florida-- last time I saw him --he died a few months later--this was one of his fav songs miss him soooo much

[batatacollins]

@lacieduke Sorry about your lost man !! You must dedicate the song I grieve to your brother !! Life carries on and on and ooooon !!

[lacieduke]

[SessionKat]

Amazing in all regards. If this song, and this version, doesn't strike an emotion or spirit center somewhere in you - seek help.

[SessionKat]

This is superb. One of my favorite songs, an excellent version and the clips are well placed and well paced. Thanks.

[bbtarzan3]

who sings this??

[Sovietico88]

@bbtarzan3

Peter Gabriel

[davemcf13]

This was my 'breakup tune' from Cindy. I know I made the proper call, but the heartache lasts f'n FOREVER. I loved her. What coul've been done differently. Make a Man feel like a complete f'n failure. Things weren't great, financially, but do not cheat on me then say "Oh... its ALL your fault" That is BULLSHIT, and that axes the relationship, period. No arguments, take your shit and get the fuck out NOW before I have a chance to get violent.. Dont let the door hit yer ass on the way out.

[lacieduke]

@davemcf13 dude I agree--no cheating whatsoever--thru thick and thin--my hubby and I are having financial problems right now--but we have each other--for better or for worse--always think positive:)

[darthhvader]

non che male!!! Kantare bella kanzone

[Cimbarius]

the NEW Peter Gabriel album "SCRATCH MY BACK" - out middle of February in Canada and Europe, beginning of March in the USA : )

Great video. . .well done. . .bravo to both Peter and you komekami6go! : )

[jtwig]

Wow I've never heard this version before and it's really good. Thanks for posting, I needed this!

[Sabwaits]

Petr Gabrel rulez!

[maxa60]

He wrote this in the aftermath of his failed marriage.

Loneliness I hide...Take this pain away.

[solomonBurkehalter]

is that true? she should have come back over this

[mrluisenrique]

This song is really beatufull and powerfull!!!!!

I love it, It's among my top ten of my heartbroken's songs list.The first one used to be Hurt by Nine Inch Nails, but I recently heard "At least we tried" by Moby and... uff. But Washing of the water... Wow.

"...letting go, it's so hard. The way is hurting now to get this love untied..."

[mrluisenrique]

Ups! I meant Brokenhearts' songs list...

[MrAdheez]

so beautifull!!

:)

[mirko36bln]

i love this song.....thanks

[Icantactuallydance]

I just love this song

[gurlgonewild1]

Very moved by this song. It totally describes the way I feel.

[zodiacbluesbaby]

Great version of one of my favourite songs. I love Gabriel's voice - a soul singer with an English accent. Thanks for posting.

[XxelzzxX]

Anyone who has experienced their relatinship fall apart couldn't be moved by this song. I am awed by Peter Gabriels ability to pot it into words.

[kathryn611]

I agree with you completely...I was going through a painful break-up 16 years ago and this song "hit the nail on the head" for what I was going through at the time.

[solomonBurkehalter]

i am right now, and her name is kathryn, my wife id take a bullet for

[Mongazo]

This song not only makes me cry. It describes a life full of hurt and finally some hope with extremely high poetry.

Superb lyrics, magnificent sound.

[jazzhawkus]

I am so moved by this song that I palyed it at my brothers funeral. It really tells a story about life. It is a sad song but it has an uplifting aspect too. I always think about my brother, Wayne Handley ( really miss you Bro') Rest in Peace!

Alos, Thanks so Much Peter for a rich song.

[latoyaglvr]

@jazzhawkus yeah. i'd like this song played at my burial as they lower the coffin. i always did since i was a small kid . sorry about your loss . your brother is in a better place.

[keithpas]

If this isn't Peter Gabriel its the best Peter Gabriel cover I've ever heard. Beautiful tune.

[themadmerkin]

This is Peter Gabriel - its off of his "Play" DVD, a compilation of videos for several of his songs. This version is a collaberation with Jules Holland (sp.?) off of a Jules Holland CD. I bought a copy off eBay a few years ago. I think it was recorded in 2001 or so.

BUT, in my opinion, a great version of an absolutely wonderful song. Thanks for sharing.

[keithpas]

Thanks for the info, I'll have to get that DVD.

[Safra62]

Is this Peter Gabriel? Or is that the version of the Globetrotters?

The video is wonderful!
