Simply stunning, but when you compare it to his live performances (my favourite - Secret World tour) you clearly see how much better Peter is live than in studio recordings.
so i was born in 1994' and am listening to this o-o i <3 me some Peter Gabriel o-o and i have a feeling this was the song that guys stood outside the window playing to their girlfriends XD
this is a truly a awesome song for the couple who have true love flashback u will never forget the 80's i love all music but the 80's i will never forget.
The Genesis music tree is so compelling, powerful, and diverse. They dominated prog, pop, and rock. Even if they're not your favorite band, they are indisputably the greatest success/influence story of prog, with King Crimson coming in second.
@SonOfYoungwood Oh my...Thought the man was nuts when he left actually, compelling as to genious? I could offer several more branches as to tree? US music is nothing more than acorn, apologies, old US fart here, love Canadians and British I do, Elton is gay? Oh my?
they should play this more often god i want my 80s back with no Yoko Ono or just no Courtney Love if you no what i mean the most two hated women in history
JULIE I HAVENT FOE GOT ABOUT U EVEN THOUGH I GOT A BEAUTIFUL GURL(BECKY)I STILL REMEMBER HOW U GAVE IN BY U KISSING ME FIRST CAUSE U SEEN SUMTHING IN MY EYEZ N THIZ IZ DA SONG U TOLD ME DAT ITZ FOE ME :)I HOPE DAT LIFE HAS BEEN GOOD 2U N THANK U FOE DA WAY SPEND YOUR X WITH ME AITE
@jtjack111 Yeah I for one agree he was very out of line wasnt he? I mean how dare he go to your house and fuck your sister then come and tell me im stupid for thinking this was Phil Collins. Its a messed up world man
@Wallylex the movie is not worthy of the song and the song and video are 3 years older than the movie anyway, no way they could've included footage from it in the video.
@deanriam Yeah, I figured that out a bit later, that the song and the video came out like 3 years before the movie. Still, one of those eternal fans could create a new video with movie footage, it would be awesome. Obviously, I don't feel like you do regarding the movie. Cheers!
What began as the filming of an ordinary day in September of 2001, turns out to be the most complete chronicle of 9/11 attacks. New 9/11 movie on dvd: 'Tuesday Morning in September' 2011 For more information about how to get the dvd, please go to the channel that posted this.
wow this song is epic,havent listened to it in years truly beatiful.they used this song in felicity where the leading actress charcter gives up her child for adoption,good old felicity and amy jo jonson
OMG one of the worst videos ever for one of the BEST songs ever... haha Gotta love the 80's for being cheesy... I need to find out which movies those clips were from. I feel like I want to watch them.
@laadeedah3 I think it's very renovating for it's time. you have have to remember this video is almost 30 years old, and to for my opinon is still very mordern to our standards
If this was my video I would captured different images of people around the world. From a rich guy who can buy anything but don't, to starving kids in Africa, music is meant to capture the sould of a person. When I hear this song it does that for me, "Thanks Peter for Making it" but let's get back to it. I see no reason why man's greed have poision us today. Great Great song, I just wish we had more it......Maybe record producers and exec's can get off their butts and have a do over........
If this was my song I would have powerful images of people around the world. From Starving people in Africa with nothing to eat, to the lucky folks with money and how it can change them. Music is the most powerful media form because it last for ever and being creative is key. I love the song a lot and I play it when I need a minute to myself. I think if we can create music that capatures people's sould again we can regain our greatness as a nation......better yet as a world community leader.
This is a good song. I was born in 1989 and don't actually remember this song, but I heard a cover by Sara Bareilles and loved it. Eventually I was led here to the original. I see why she would want to do a cover of this song. It's great!
A man who was before his time: Peter Gabriel.
