Watching Gabriel in concert isn't so much a musical experience as it is a religious experience. I've often come away from his shows staggering with the majesty and beauty of is words, music, and performance. God bless that man.
It comes from PG's official dvd 'Secret World Live', which I highly recommend to buy since it is a great testimony of this particular tour. Reocrded in Milan, Italy, 1993.
anywy, I got the dvd and it's quite disappointing cuz it has a lot of correction. There are scene when you can hear him playing the harmonica while in the pictures he has just stopped playing it.
Peter is famous for correcting the mistakes. The sound is greater this way but it's far more cold
What do you mean??...Because his voice looks a little strange...like it was re recorded..I don't know how to explain it. But it doesn't look really live, although I LOVE THIS VERSION!!!
@mauriziocarita You're both right and wrong. lol. It was Modena, November 17 and 18, 1993. I was there on the second night and Peter sent us home at 1.30 a.m. after four songs were played again to get more footage for the video, among which Washing Of The Water. In between songs, while the stage had to be set for the next song that had to be played again, further songs that were not in the setlist were performed, much to our delight!...
@testchimp23 I saw this tour in Glasgow. It blew my mind, and still does. I saw the Growing up tour too, and he had not lost his touch in the years between.
loved this song in the mid nineties and still ove it now when i found it by accident... peter gabriel you rock...well rocks not the right word.... fecking great lyrics....thanks for posting thought this song was in my imagination from years ago....
The "washing of the water" was actually a spring ritual in the Roman Catholic Church (at least in England before the break with Rome) but I don't know if that is done any longer anywhere...
wow.
