[sergiorobertobutzke]

Valeu Peter

Um verdadeiro ser humano,foi abduzido,nao morto,precisam entende-lo os outros seres superiores.

[elitept]

Now its Israel which is the only country in the world which has racism enshrined in its constitution. Fuck israel and all those who support its racist constitution!

[eck1973]

@elitept absolutely 

[H4W3A8]

@elitept Where is it enshrined? How is it worded? What Article? What Section?

[theguyisinthailand]

this song must have bent nelson...a song called"BIKO" and that he did not have to resort to terrorism as "NELSON MANDELA" did in his rebellion days...LONG LIVE BIKO...(peter knows how to write a song and then preform it...)BIKO BIKO BIKO...the new war cry-

I didn't know Peter's music when I saw his show in 87...Biko's drums stuck in my head for months..It was the final song after 5 encores..Just amazing

I heard Gabriel close his set with "Biko" during the Amnesty International show, 1986 at Giant Stadium, East Rutherford, New Jersey, USA.  It was mesmerizing.

[MrUnidyne]

@airwon I was at that same concert. I still get chills thinking of it.

[gazzatopdude1]

our thoughts are with Jim Kerr and his family at this sad time due to the loss of his mother

RIP

[Madman007]

If anyone doubts how powerful music can be, point them to this song. If they don't have a tear after the 7:12 mark, they are not human! "You can blow out a candle, but you can't blow out a fire. Once the flame begins to catch, the wind will blow it higher." Stephen Biko WAS that wind! 

[49Aloysius]

One of these days we are singing for the white man human rights. We'll do ir with you Peter.

[TheWookiewoo163]

Forgive but never forget

[folletto1975]

[NellaRose]

THANK you SO much for posting this video!! I've been searching for years for at least SOME of the original performances of Freedom Fest... *sigh* This song is stunning! My mom recorded the Fox broadcast... And I pretty much grew up on that old VHS. This song always hit me hard... You've just made my day! <3

[nina8x]

Don't Forget Steven Biko

[arkady714]

There was a concert held that was for Mandella's birthday (three or so years before his release). This number was the best and most sincere of the show.

[RICHARDTOMLEY10WHARF]

peter gabriel should be knighted for his services to humanity never mind the great music wake up govt or wait till hes dead maybe?.

[MALONEYCAMFIELD]

@RICHARDTOMLEY10WHARF

I'd be surprised if he's never been offered a CBE or something but my guess is that he might have turned one down already. I don't think it's his style. I wouldn't be surprised if he's a republican, so he may not feel comfortable with a medal from the Royals.

[costanzoriver]

NUDO EN LA GARGANTA

[adfshrekrocks]

[Fenellaribena]

I was there.

Que a morte de Steve Biko, seja sempre lembrada para que a humanidade não volte jamais segregar qualquer povo em função de sua raça

[marighelli]

[kiaganga]

mel gaynor shook the turf a majik moment for all !!!

[Arkady63]

I remember seeing this on TV when living in Paris.

This song was the most (and maybe only) sincere moment of what was otherwise a business-as-usual rockfest.

What a brilliant song and what a caring man.

Cheers for the vid.

[WouterJ]

Phil Collins played drums on the studio version of this song marking the first time that Collins and Gabriel worked together since Gabriel left Genesis.
