Peter Gabriel/Games Without Frontiers

[MystikWizard]

Doing this song without the lyrics "Jeux sans Frontieres" is just wrong.

[Lieu3C4]

Does this simply lead to Missing Without Action and a substitute attraction for covert violations across broders of Nations that may thus fall and, war decared, casualties that no one would notice anymore than a stockmarket heaven where daily grind bread were leavened? This man says no more war but is it more, in its seclusion of proof, more delusion than sooth?

[xena1154]

(`v`) thank`s really a lot! (`v`)

[jodonte1]

love peter, love sting...just dont understand the "we will save the world" stuff...just like bono, and all the rest....life will not change my friends.....politics will always rule the land, sorry to say...every politician must have been a musician...they must have got tired of being played, got fed up with the back stabbing, and lies...then they wanted to up the game !!! all the best my friends...

[kathyuk28]

Geez, Sting has been using that same bass for over 20 years.

[7466309change]

first time I see his long hair.

[BaconTV123]

Making a song against war us point less war won't stop

[simoxnirvana1]

sting?!

[gj1176]

Vinnie is bad !!!!!!!!!

[ChantsandDrums]

This song is soooo still accurate in 2010! Very interesting version with the jazzy bass by Sting... wow

[jurgenburdorf]

This performance is the reason I got into Peter Gabriel, I saw this when I was 10 years old. Next day I ran out to buy Melt.... one of my favorite records ever.

Great stuff and thanks for posting!

[pcholody]

0:59 I'm melting :D just made it my phone ring :D

[Spenc2010]

At what point was Peter able to pull back his hair?

This is odd for me.

[Tranguill]

2:27

Andiamo Vincenzo!!!!!!

[amoergosum3]

Go Vinnie!

[dubya12825]

Peter replicates a Nazi March. Kind of like we have in the US today.

[gardenvarietypenis]

fucking obama

[losghost]

@dubya12825

That's nothing like a US march. It's actually more like a british march,. Considering he's british.

Try again hater.

[Jim009911]

@dubya12825 Odd comment, considering he talks about the Kurds, who we provided greater protection and autonomy by getting rid of Saddam Hussein...

[zoned247]

An amazing song. This live version confirms the benefit of a harder guitar sound here. Peter is so tuned into political / social / historical issues - respect is due. Classy piece of video. Check out Not One Of Us, for pure PG magic !

[chrisacchi]

The best song of the best Peter Gabriel album, Melt!

[TeeStall]

The whole album is great

[freddonie]

to weak????????? you are a stipid one. The album version is one of the best songs, ever!

[treyzzer]

thats how this song should have been written in the first place.... Gabriels original version is too weak,,, its the perfect example of how strong lyrics get squeezed through bad music,,,, like most of the songs by dylan,,, the music and dylans voice just dont do the m justice...

[pinkfloydfreak87]

this is how gabriel performed the song live various other times without sting though. Most of his songs become more rock and less pop live. Gabriel always has great bands to make his music come even more to life.

[truebrit38]

totally disagree, this version is overblown and pompous whereas the original is stripped down and stark as Gabriel intended

[rira0007]

The drummer's Vinnie Colaiuta!!

[rammers2006]

@rira0007 and what a fookin great job he does of this otherwise mundane beat.... love this version, Beats all the others HANDS DOWN!!! remember watching it live (before internet) and thinking whos that guy with the great chops holding this beat!

[franchy68]

just to clarify an earlier post. the drummer is not manu katche- it's vic culiuto. if you want to see manu in action, check out: peter gabriel live games without frontiers live multi-cam 1993 related video.

[rammers2006]

@franchy68 but this is the best GWF live ive heard.... manu rocks, vinnie owns!

[bajslys]

I'm in love with Peter's voice, and old Genesis. But this didn't impress me. Too forced.

[najseba]

I agree, I'm a big fan, but his voice here isn't very good as in the Japan Hurricane Irene first concert.

[albee1000]

You can't really hear him that well, can you? It's like he's not putting a lot of force in his voice.

[dubya12825]

Whisteling tunes, we PISS on baboons in the jungle!!!!!!!!!!!Yeah

[nintendo64isking]

peter's voice isn't very good here

[jerrymanley]

His voice is great he's performing,

watch early genesis footage

[nintendo64isking]

i know he's great performing, just not here, i like the secret world concert and his incredible stage presence in early genesis.

[Cotygeek]

Don't forget growing up live! lol

[dubya12825]

Musicians and politics do not mix. I know this video is old but this is where it started. Perform and stay out of politics. If you stay involved it will ruin you. The Stink does not help.......JMO

[C16H12FN3O3]

Nah, of course musicians and politics mix. Artists in general mix with politics. Because if you take out the artists, who's left? Politicians, that's who. And do you want to trust the fate of the world to a bunch of politicians?

I didn't think so...

[Cotygeek]

Yeah, and last time I checked, isn't it kind of a good thing that people with fame, power, and the spotlight are trying to bring issues like these to light?

[composer333]

Ludwig Van Beethoven was asked: "When not speaking of music, what is your favorite subject to converse about?" Beethoven answered tersely: "Politics, nothing but politics !"

[peterblack70]

Well-played Stadium Rock, unfortunately it doesn't suit the song. This has none of the original, creepy allure of the studio version (and no Kate Bush on backup!). A pity, as it's one of Gabriel's best.

[memalley]

not feeling it...gabriel is on fire (of course).. but i think the kids missed the whole "the kurds are getting kicked around" pleas.

[wiggertronix]

absolute crapp urban tattood swallower version not like heartfelt original

[1Boodyman1]

Yeah! Fuck China's Olympic Games (without frontiers)! Fuck China's criminal regime!!

[elsoda]

KILL EM ALL...KILL EM!!!!

[saga55]
