Mixed feelings about this. I love this song and it's nice to see that Peter Gabriel recognises this as one of Young's relatively hidden gems. But this song is outside of Peter's range and he really struggles to sing it. It's a poignant interpretation and I don't mind the orchestration but it's difficult to look past the vocal performance, which is even worse on the album.
It's something about that piano that makes this song very haunting but gives it what it needs. Love you Peter and u are great just terrible arrangement!
I actually like Peter's version better, it's very haunting and depressing yet comforting somehow. Obviously credits to Neil young though. What a wonderfull melody!
Thank you for this post.i agree that neil and piano is excellent and the perfect ending scene for the movie but in all fairness,Peter has done some wonderful work on other peoples covers for this album . i love both versions.

If Neil Young does a cover of a Peter Gabriel song, then we can call them both stupid.

Niel Young is a master of music as is Peter Gabriel.

In my opinion, nothing could come close to Neil and his piano.
