The Barry Williams Show

[dennis300cr]

Just read in IMDB that Peter Gabriel wrote a song called Barry Williams which I never heard of and thought to check it out. Peter never knew there was a real Barry Williams from the Brady Bunch TV fame, so he asked Barry to do a cameo in this video. I've been a fan of Peter for years, but this song is terrible and the video blows, no wonder the only charting was 66 place in Germany 2002.

1:34 the REAL Barry Williams-cameo ! cool !!

[xtrastage]

I liked this song better when it was called Talk Soup.

[Larrylarp]

Awesome. But I have to say that the live version even better.

[mechasonic17]

It's a wee bit out of sync, but the message still gets across-

Pete in a trenchcoat, with golden-clad girls on either side, standing in front of an "applause" sign: Badass incarnate. He's how old now?

[BarbaricGoose]

Hahahaha... only Peter Gabriel could make such brilliant song about Jerry Springer.

Calling Peter incredible just doesn't do his talent justice.

[AllStarVidsCorp]

This is 1000x better live

[mattisprettycool]

Man it's so weird that this was the stick thin long-haired flamboyant leader of Genesis. Time flies.

Good exaggeration of "Jerry Springer," as the guests of "Barry Williams" shed blood while Jerry's guests don't.

[Buste123]

This video is a masterpiece :D, the song is awesome too

[R0Om101]

@TheCorrectAnswer56 You are correct sir but for a real surprise look up Christopher McDonald on IMDB the guy has been in a lot over the course of many years.

The songtext is in my English book. I think it's really... true.

[IRONMAIDENrockinrio]

same here

[jxxybxxy2002]

This song is much scarier than anything Marilyn Manson could dream up, because it's true. Chilling.

[coolkingchris]

I was always puzzled why this song wasn't a big hit. Looking back I realize now that people are uncomfortable with the truth. Peter Gabriel is a modern prophet.

i can't find Growing up music video anywhere

Once you get into the blood stomping, you know you're watching something horrifically beautiful.

The same sick feeling I get from watching the 'Britney's New Look' episode of South Park.

Television homicide; gladiators without courage.

great song. kinda humourous to see barry williams in the audiance watching the "Barry Williams Show"

[eblckmn]

Awesome song and great video. Really makes you think. Yeah it's probably mostly about Jerry Springer, but not entirely. There's been others and there will continue to be. What a world..

[Awesomeosaurus91]

did peter bring this song out?

I've never heard it before

[SussudioPGFan]

Yes, it was his first single from the album "UP".

[Promethius546]

You know you're a well accomplished musician when your music video is directed by Sean Penn. Wait a minuite....scratch that. You know you're a accomplished musician when your name is Peter Gabriel ! = D

[sebda5]

Que locura. Viva Peter

[MuppetsRfUN]

I love the fact that Peter Gabriel didn't know that there was an actor by the name of Barry Williams when he wrote the song, and then they invited Barry Williams(aka Greg Brady) to be in the video. Peter Gabriel is a right sexy man, I love his music!

[Parrotbox]

love the song the truth finally^^

[MandysEvilTwin]

I know this was written (mostly) about Jerry Springer, but I can't help but feel this song has become more relevent (in the UK) with the ascent of tbe despicable Jeremy Kyle
