Such a cute song.:) This superb live performance only makes it all the cuter. Mr. Gabriel looks so adorable on that funny mini bicycle. He keeps making circles like that while singing, so effortlessly. It's not as easy as one might think, I know that because I tried that before, it only made me dizzy and soon lost my balance. (I still bear a tiny scar to prove it):D
Fantastic HD quality! I was very impressed and wondering how in the world could he sound so good riding the bike, etc. 2:05-2:06 answered it. . .lip-syncing. :( It should be illegal! Nice ventriloquist act though. Big money for "live"concerts and the fans are duped. . .
I'm not entirely convinced. The scene at 2:05-2:06 looks like it is out of sync in the video edit. Notice how in the scene before he is just getting off the bike and it cuts to him being fully off the bike and walking.. it could possibly be that he was singing when facing away from the camera? I think I can almost make out Peter singing the words a few seconds before. That's just my take.. :)
PG concerts are shows first and foremost a performance, always have been, and one thing you can count on is that he will entertain you in ways no-one else does. PG doesn't always sing that well live, especially when performing the 'stunners' and I'm happy for this bit to be slightly pre-recorded if that's the case. And when he does sing live, without too many distractions, it's beautiful to behold.
I think the change of direction of the cycle mid-song (02:05) during the line "...Son he said, grab your things, I've come to take you home..." is poignant, especially in light of what the song is supposed to be about.
@Rentaghost76 How is it embarrassing? It would be if getting old meant that he could no longer play the music to the same standard but that had not happend at all.
@Rentaghost76 you are a dumbass, it never is about what an artist looks like, it is the quality of the music itself. That is such an ignorant comment that it probably should not be addressed, but in this case why not?
turns out petey has been misleading when some have thought him to be "religious" in some lyrical content.Turns out after some not even scrupulous investigation that he's ben using Illuminati symbolism on the majority of his album covers and images.Don't think so?Look into it.There he is displaying the typical"one eyed crap" on most of the covers.Just like all the other scum bags that do the same thing recently.What an ASSHOLE.
Pretty brave to ride the little bike around the stage with that drop off there....that would scare me more than coming on stage without a full head of hair...seems a bit pussy to decide to shave it all off just cuz you're losing a bit on top....maybe Bruce Willis can get away with it but most guys can't...
Awesome, heard this song yesterday on the radio for the first time in a zillion years and spent an hour today to find the version I liked best. This is it.
@Acridiel Why do baldness always collect so much negativity? I am bald and we're not innately evil you know. Still human and very much functioning the way I should.
@dracopticon Uhm, sorry if I offended you in any way. It was just supposed to be a pun on a certain classic Star Trek Quote. Nothing more. I'm not that good equiped in the hair department myself anymore ^^
@Acridiel It's totally ok! It's me that shouldn't be so worked up over this. But then again, almost in every action film these days, the bad guy is often bald and the hero has one fantastic hair cut. So tired of that... Thanks for your answer!
How bad must the band members with hair feel? Do they feel left out, isolated? Do they get the urge to go slaphead? Even the bonnie lassie, didn't do Sinead O'Connor any harm.
Thanks for posting this great song and singer-one of the best and most joyous pop songs ever recorded in the twentieth century in my humble,six-plus decades of listening experience. I still ponder on its meaning, but who cares, it sounds brilliant!
I read somewhere that he is talking about his decision to leave Genesis. Not sure how true it is, but he is definitely making a life decision in the song...
в 1975 году 25-летний Питер Гэбриэл сообщил о том, что он покидает основанную им группу GENESIS. Первым сольным синглом музыканта стала песня "Solsbury Hill", в которой Гэбриэл объясняет причины своего ухода из Genesis и воспевает обретенную им свободу.
I somehow interpreted this song to war?????Break up of Genisis instead?????confused doesnt matter.Its as good as when I finally heard Funeral For A Friend nothing like it ever the absolute BEST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
In 2002 and 2003, Peter Gabriel went on the road again with is "Growing up tour", once more collaborating with is long time friend, Robert Lepage, the scenic director born and living in Québec city, Canada. Performing in 32 cities across Canada, the USA and Europe. The film (134 min) of this tour was recorded over two nights at the Filotorum, Milan in May 2003. You can find this DVD in any good dvd stores. A must by. The best show I've bought on DVD yet.
