Family Snapshot Peter Gabriel

[jimmythecreep]

regardless of what this is about, it doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure it out...it is so sad...and we all can identify w/it...we all know and feel the same rage..."all goes quiet i've been here before a sad and lonely boy hinding behind the front door...and there's my toy gun on the floor"...that kinda says it all...

[RaleighDawlishRaynar]

I aint heard this song yet but according to my computer when DIY is playing, this is meant to be the track heard? lol

What were the chance? Looking for a track called "You are STILL on your own, mate" as I text this.

[valueape88]

Great song. bremer was a complete piece of shit tho and not one to feel any sympathy toward. i leave him out of this entirely.

[seimer22]

This song is about Arthur Bremmer, who shot Alabama Governor George Wallace in 1972.

[AJM0072]

Lets hope Barack isnt the next one

[mondesecret]

I hope as well he won't be the next one.

[Squab1972]

Great song, this was written about the hunter and the hunted through the eyes of an assassin about to assassinate a politician.

[NOODLES38]

only gabriel could look at it from the other side the mans a genius

[JediLH]

Thanks for this. You were lucky to get so close, I've always wanted to see him live - not had chance so far :-( This is a great track. It's actually about the assissination of JFK.

[thegorillasnake]

No, actually it's about the man who tried to assassinate George Wallace. Seriously I researched this.

[Squab1972]

So have I you are right if you listen to the lyrics carefully enough

[ShishiDiablo]

@thegorillasnake

that's what wikipedia says you dumb ass. didnt you realise that in the lyrics it says "and the governor's car, is not far behind, he's NOT THE MAN I'VE GOT IN MIND"

dont make up utter rubbish about knowing about this.

[thegorillasnake]

@ShishiDiablo I'm not making anything up. I know that Peter Gabriel was inspired to write this about Arthur Bremmer. I am a Peter Gabriel fan. Just because George Wallace was a governor doesn't mean he was in his own state when it happened. Your words are uncalled for, princess.

If I'm a dumbass, you're a single-celled organism with no brain. Somehow, I don't think that's true. That makes you a liar. Shame on you, liar.

[TheAngryIntellectual]

@ShishiDiablo Thegorillasnake is right, dumbass. This is about Arthur Bremer shooting Wallace. Have you even read An Assassin's Diary? "The Governor" refers to Will Milliken, the then-governor of Maryland. You're an idiot. Acquire some fucking knowledge before running your mouth.

[OhlssonO]

@TheAngryIntellectual

Well, you might want to do the same before you go insulting people... Check my reply to Thegorillasnake

[OhlssonO]

@thegorillasnake

Thats not entirely true. Its inspired by both the book "The diary of an assasin" by Arthur Bremer, which is about the assasination of George Wallace, and the assasination of JFK. This is confirmed by Gabriel himself at a concert in Paramount Theater, Seattle, 10th August 1983.

[thegorillasnake]

@OhlssonO Very well. I accept that and will modify my views accordingly. Thank you for filling me in.

[jimmythecreep]

[mondesecret]

Le poignet qui tremble c'est l'émotion plutôt... et le manque d'expérience ;)

Le type derrière pg c'est Melanie non ? lol ou sinon le type qui faisait le doublage pour les sourds.
