Love this vid...But holy shit Rickybobby...learn what to do with your hands...

I generally admire Peter Gabriel, and he did a fine job with his vocals, the orchestra performed

well, but this brought absolutely nothing new to the material. The orchestration was not nearly

as well developed or compelling as the original recording.

I saw this show back in 2010 in Montréal. The first half were song from others interpreted by PG and the second half was the equivalent of this new album; all with the New Blood Orchestra.  Very nice and different.

[jaytee591]

Breathtaking....nothing better than a full throttle orchestra led by one of the few seasoned veterans who could pull it off. One of the best performances to grace the Sullivan stage. Pure class....

Beautiful!!

2 dislikes must be Leno and Fallon?

[brophtron]

Very fitting. He did this song on Letterman when it was new.

[LedLass]

Oh, man I was so glad I caught this performance on Letterman! I ADORE Peter Gabriel. I can't believe he still has that amazingly gorgeous voice, and the orchestration and arrangement definitely gave this song new life. I saw him live during the "So" tour and became obsessed. Funny story: During "Lay Your Hands On Me," he dove into the audience and we did just that. Everybody wanted a piece of him -- by the time he got back to the stage, he'd been stripped nearly naked hahaha

[vinstrumentals]

Thank you, it's fantastic!

[tgrassi]

Thumbs up for this genius! Incredible tour, outstanding show, unbelieveble artists!!

[mrdbarnes650]

Truly one of the most inspirational artists for decades. Saw this tour in Berkeley, CA. 1st saw Garbriel in "The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway" with Genesis in early 70's

[Papiprah]

he's one of the first artists I learned to love when I was growing up. Mytical

[orpheus127]

Loved him forever. Glad he's still got it. The orchestration is amazing...

[heliosium]

Tiene la voz del pelao Collins.

[LiteracyLabyrinth2]

Gabriel is still a legend!

[KnowledgeRocksLtd]

This is amazing! What voice, what tune and fantastic orchestral arrangement...and painting an evocative picture with music...I'm going to get the album...

[mdm8]

@gt3dug I really hope you have a chance to see him live. I was fortunate enough to see the New Blood tour during the first and second legs, and both times were phenomenal. I've loved his music all my life, but nothing tops hearing it live.

[ccballou]

Peter Gabriel has one of the best voices ever. I love him.

[wsidechris]

Peter gives "Red Rain" the orchestral treatment and scores big time (two unintended puns in there)!  Very excited to hear the new album.

[Beaglez1]

Words do not suffice...

[gt3dug]

Peter Gabriel seems to get better with age. Saw a video of one of his recent concerts and was blown away with the innovation and high creativity. Throw in that unique voice and some great tunes and you get a show I would like to see in person.

[marceleldaher]

Awesome performance by  a great and talented artist.will keep in my memory for my kids to watch and learn.true music never dies. thank you Peter.

[crimsonkng1]

this was an AMAZING performance. The kids were effing awesome. Great back-up singers. Great musicians. Absolutely fabulous job all around. Peter Gabriel is so effing talented.

[Cimbarius]

this is without any doubt the BEST "New Blood"-performance of "Red Rain" !

[jeanneMilliere]

I love the old Peter Gabriel. 

[dougbuczak]

I love when artists re-invent and re-arrange their music like this...so great!

[mirush65]

SHhhhhhhh...LISTEN!!! GOOD Music N.E.V.E.R. Dies...VIVA LA MUZIKA!!!Thnx(Mtl)

[OTB74]

Thank you for posting! Do you have the studio interview? Here in the UK we can't watch the show online.

[MyDadsRubberBroke]

Great tune by a great song writer, thanks for sharing.

[chazmataz100]

My friend Rosie is one of Peter Gabriels backing singer/ n. She's the backing singer with short red hair. Well done Rosie, you were brilliant :-)

[crimsonkng1]

@chazmataz100 very nice! she was phenominal! so lucky to sing with PG! Tell her "mazel tov" for me!
