At 64 I still await something more from Peter G---Trespass hooked me first when I was young and a fresh player in the world. I wait for more my friend. Voice of reality.
Er und seine Songs begleiten mich fast mein Leben lang. Er ist alt geworden und ich auch. Meine Schwester ist vor 2 Wochen gestorben und ich habe dieses Lied für die Bestattung meiner Schwester ausgesucht.
Wow! He's like a modern day monk that has realized the truth behind suffering, tuned his instrument, and attained that look of a long staring wayfarer. When I first heard this song it resonated deeply within; and now, with Gabriel's growing tranquility the song carries beyond... beyond the deed within.
Intersting, i just found an earlier version og this song by Peter G. It's interesting to hear how the older, seasoned artist performs this song (quieter & with more sentiment, less dynamics.But no less powerful).Very much like life. the young man screams, the older man whispers...but both deliver the message. Must say, I like how Bette Midler changes the lyric..."Drink up, drink up to humankind" (gives .more hope)
this man is the most brilliant musician alive, no doubt. He had been always two steps ahead of everyone, contemporary music owes so much to this incredible man, a real artist.
I agree with all the positive posts. I'm so glad that he's still able to hit those high notes all these years later. I only wish he would release a quality remaster of the original version of HCTF that he recorded back in '77. Another interesting idea would be to re-record it and pull out the orchestral stops on this song - not unlike what he's done in Scratch My Back.
Timeless, great songs last forever. Can't get over how amazing his voice is, STILL! Brave people sitting in that room. This song is a truckload of emotion.
I just got this direct tv thing, I was lost channel wise, not even really watching, just thinking about a girl I know, and this song was playing, and the tears just started dropping.
@batman2909 no that was a genesis album, it was on Peter Gabriels first album, the version that is just piano and vocals only is on his greatest hits cd and a compilation called SHAKING THE TREE
Perfeito! A versão definitiva de "Here comes the flood". Desde os velhos tempos do Genesis, PG se reinventa a cada dia. Agora, descobriu a simplicidade e se tornou o João Gilberto do rock.
I'd like to dedicate this wonderful song to Felipe, my spanish cousin, for his love and passion. As PG he knows the influence and power of simplicity in music.
