PETER GABRIEL - Games without Frontiers (Live)

[AdamCharlton]

what kind of guitar does he have?

[summersavannah01]

whistling tunes we piss on the coons in the jungle ?

why ?

[VirgilwithanE]

I LOVE that little keyboard riff throughout the song! Especially on this version. Makes the song sound more tear-jerking, lol.

[davelewth]

"it's a knockout"/"Jeux Sans Frontières" - the TV programs - were good.

"Games without Frontiers" - the song - is awesome.

"Games without Frontiers" on segways is pure f--ing win.

"Games without Frontiers" on segways *with your daughter on backing vocals* is beyond my vocabulary

Curse you, Peter & Melanie Gabriel. You made me realise I suck as a father, and I have a small dictionary. :(

[Trazorr]

Can't understand what they are singing.

[superunt43]

Worried, really worried I remain here. This is great video, great song and the focal point remains a Seg? The man has some age? Oh my, really worried who cares for me when I get old.

[Drmulder15]

Segway!!!

[bigrider2806]

@GreenGoSolar what the hell are you talking about ?

[superunt43]

@bigrider2806 We're all toast in 5 years, we got zero shot at reversing warming, US, CHINA will cast second glance as to green, as for Pete? Well old man as some say, well????

[bigrider2806]

@superunt43 clearly barking mad .

[superunt43]

@bigrider2806 Yes, and your point remains?

[superunt43]

@bigrider2806 You refer to me or Pete?

[bigrider2806]

@superunt43 you , nutter .

[superunt43]

@bigrider2806 K, get the English references in a way, my apologies. Nutter, barking mad, etc. Slowly getting it if you will. I assume then a nutter is a full-blown whack-a-loon? Apologies, I coined that one, actually. Part US/Canadian slang if you will?

[frazerpmobrien]

@superunt43 5 years? re think your time scale buddy

[superunt43]

@frazerpmobrien My bad, took a sec for me to get the humor, reference, etc. I know, have less time than that my friend, remain aware I do. Tipping point looms quickly. But thank you for noticing, saying?

[frazerpmobrien]

@superunt43 actually was saying you got more like 200 years.......

[superunt43]

@frazerpmobrien My apologies. I assume you refer to Mayan long calender? Some say 12/22/2012 is end time? Or 23 as it were. Recently "discovered" brick as it were says he/she descends from the air? Or so those who study say? Said brick was installed backwards as if not meant to see? Or at least not to the commoners?

[hofuto]

Profi előadás, profi vágás, kitűnő zene. Kár, hogy torzít kicsit.

2:24 she REALLY looks like her dad!

[lownbreezy1]

Coming out on a Segway? Really? So lame

[cutta1966]

@lownbreezy1 just because you cant afford one dont dis on the man!

[lavapix]

@lownbreezy1 Hey, He's old. Might not be able to walk that far.

[treeguy710]

Your so Fa ct in da head?

[Songs4LovesGods]

DANM That was SO GOOD!!!!!!!

[superunt43]

@Songs4LovesGods Indeed, this is SO great! May I offer why this is so great? Nearly 4 decades ago, my friends looked not at race, color, creed. We knew in 1976 when I was 18 we are all human, nothing else. "dressing up in costumes, playin silly games". We did that and laughed about it.

[Songs4LovesGods]

DANM!!! Im so down with this mans work he is outstanding Ya kill that week and go bye this man New LP is has been go it 4 long time and where its at!!!! He is so cool 4 show..too big for a kid too small for a man so week for your love

[TheRealDemonCleaner]

his daughter is sweet, i think!



[Songs4LovesGods]

@TheRealDemonCleaner ahah Ya sweet Hun

[velocity90]

This was such an amazing looking show..

He's a genius.. He knows exactly what the visuals should be for his music..

[Nercrophage]

Peter gabriel is the only musician who could say "I want to ride segue scooters around the stage" without being laughed at.

[velocity90]

@Nercrophage

That's because he's the only one who can make doing that, look more than interesting!

[superunt43]

@Nercrophage Sedgeway

[iceaxe56]

@Nercrophage i was laughing

[ssteeve3]

Found Peter Gabrielle - Now I'm Lost - new tangent

[Kwales66]

AMAZING x

[Wildgeese73]

AWESOME!!!!!

[tkopp10976]

i love the idea with the segways.. let's the old coot pull of some sweet quick moves without causing a heart attack. and some 20 years after listening to this song i finally realize the one line i could never figure out is actually in french, not english. thanks youtube comments!

[GreenGoSolar]

♥ #Liberty ☼ #Libertad ♫ #Freiheit ♪ #Vrijheid ☺

[bollo180]

einer der besten Musiker unserer Zeit!^^

[abendjelti]

peter gabriel de la perfection

[JohnSmiththe66th]

Folks have complained about the Segways? C'mon, people! Gabriel's been a showman since his Genesis days. What do you want him to do now? Sit in nice La-Z-Boys singing his hits?

Great version of the song - waaaaaay back when in college a guy in my dorm would blast this song 1/2 hour before each scheduled final exam period. It would get us pumped before the exams (and wake up anybody who crashed while studying).

[theredandbluealbums]

By the way, what year was this concert? And does he perform anymore? Because i only know that Phil stopped altogether a while back

[theredandbluealbums]

I FUCKING LOVE THIS MAN

[zombieporn99]

Man's got style.

[btmacie]

It sounds so much better in this key. And I love how Tony Levin just takes a picture at the end of the song.

[lotusgirl1231]

He is so amaazing that guy. He is my favorite singer!!!! I am a fan of him!!!!

[SOUNDCHASERX]

WHISTLING TUNES WE PISS ON THE COONS IN THE JUNGLE..ITS A KNOCKOUT

[sirius309]

AWESOME. I've seen this Song 2 times live.

Great Song!

[M4rkpj]

Imagine that, being born without ears!!

lol

[djd259th]

They remind me of the Borg the way they're rolling around with the headset mics...

[TAT2DJAX]

Gabriel RULES!!!!!!!

[HeavenlyBohemian86]

My fav Peter Gabriel song EVER!

[pkwj1]

basicly hittler makes a fire

[frankcino]

cute & always a GREAT song... but too many quik edits...

[Haussenmann133]

Me encanta esta puesta en escena . Me gustaría estar con él ahí, y la canción exquisita...

[thorazine666]

LEGEND

[fstop77]

This is pretty cool. That whole (1980) album is great.

[malin198919]

best live version of this song!

[astronautagogo]

If only more people in this world rode segways, we'd have world peace.

[astronautagogo]

@burmanmusic oh shut up you uptight, pretentious twat. Don't get your pony tail all up in a tizzy. Now go ride your segway.

[burmanmusic]

Would love to have heard this without the distorted audio. I imagine this would have been a killer experience live. And probably the coolest application of the Seqway!

[edelweiss1001]

@burmanmusic

spent a bit of whiskey induced time, switched to headphones, killed the next door dog (joke), waited until the wee hours, worked ok.....tho next time the dial goes to 14!!!!

[jatdesi13]

Who needs Genesis Peter has done a wonderfull job on his own.

[damiandes89]

Genious :)

[Nickdfresh]

Segway, the ultimate prosthetic god.  Thank you Freud!

[astronautagogo]

Choreographed Segway routine, god complex, headsets, new age outfitting & a million camera angles. HAHAHAHA, white people.

[burmanmusic]

@astronautagogo misunderstanding, inability to understand music, irrelevant comments about art and limited appreciation of anything creative hahahha People who think ignorance is limited to any one group of people

[tkopp10976]

@astronautagogo you are so right brother.. good thing there are still people like Flavor Flav around to keep it real

[maikud2]

Ruined this song...

[SavoyTruffle78]

Peter's voice has not changed at all in all these years. He looks like an old man now, but when he opens his mouth to sing, that SAME beautiful voice from 30 years ago comes out.

[SavoyTruffle78]

Peter Gabriel has the SEXIEST voice in rock history. I would orgasm in 3 seconds if he talked in my ear.

[jatdesi13]

THERE IS ONLY ONE RACE THE HUMAN RACE.

[harshaym]

@jatdesi13

lovely song would like to dedicate this song to a beautiful girl Nita , whom i travel with to office - she has saved my life unkowingly , wishing to marry her but my past is stoping me from asking her out

[henklie]

@davian617 Sorry to burst your bubble, but JImi Heselden isn't the inventor of the Segway. He just bought the company this year.

Sigh, the truth can be so boring, eh?

[nicolas870]

Mel's got really similar eyes, never noticed that before.

[malevolenceXXXensues]

i wonder if it was pete's idea for to be on segways

[jayrox40]

Innovator, Legend, GENIUS!!!!!!!!

[beowulven]

This is... not good.

[Psalm696969]

@jazzybest What the "hack" has "happed" to your english?

[jazzybest]

@Psalm696969

:-)

Not my english its the small keyboard on ipod touch + a few beer

[schwartz2020]

this video rocks!

[VirgilwithanE]

I LOVE the sound of the keyboard! Makes the record version sound like a crappy demo!

[Psalm696969]

@VirgilwithanE The album version dates back to 1980 dude, of course it doesn't sound as good as a modern recording! However, I still prefer the original, it was more creative in terms of sonic experimentations, and also had a more playful feel.

[VirgilwithanE]

@Psalm696969 lol, I'm aware of what decade the song's from. And I agree with you there, the record version DOES sound more "active"

[Menevea]

Holy fucking crap this guy is amazing. And I thought the album version was awesome, but this is... wow...

[MrSiebel]

Tony Levin is the man! He studied at the Eastman Kodak School of Arts in Rochester, New York 

[jwild611]

It's like Peter has his old early 70's self next to him in the form of his daughter. It's interesting. Pause at 2:27. Looks just like him back in the day.

[TheYeh333]

u c,people say it says on the lyrics when u look it up..adolf builds a bon fire enrico plays with it...wrong he said and Rico!!!!!plays with it...my names Rico...and here he said Rico not enrico......i always believed he said rico anywaze,not enrico.....i love this guy

[TheYeh333]

what r these new words???

[AroundTheRegion]

i agree greaseman......its much better when he marches out like the nazi he does!

[CaroVonAuersfeld]

@AroundTheRegion Would u pls explain what u mean with "NAZI" in this context?? Germany anyway isn´t NAZI, trust me...it isn´t NAZI since 1945...

[AroundTheRegion]

@CaroVonAuersfeld well Gabriel marches around the stage during this song like a soldier from the Nazi regime from WWII...I've seen him live several times and brings his arm up as well, so he emulates their entire march and shows it on the video that plays in the backdrop ... he is making a statement with this song ..... i'm not promoting or trying to make any political statement , just observing what I see.

[SystemSpecs]

Brilliant

[67105maria]

Peter Gabriel is a Great singer and I think he has a big imagination to presents his shows to the world (e.g: ovo tour) . graserman64 i think he was trying to relate the game with that, I can imaging them playing as children, it could be a possibility.

[67105maria]

Peter Gabriel is a great singer, and has a big imagination to presents his shows.

[bloodboughtsaint]

Peter Gabriel rocks man...

[hanscarter]

What was the point of the segway "dance"?

[epistte]

I love Peters art.

Some people are musicians but Peter Gabriel is an artist who uses his music as a backdrop. We need more people like him. If you're not pissing 1/3 of your audience off then your artistic message needs to be reconsidered.

[MrSiebel]

The meaning of the song is to project the Vietnam war. It was called the war without tears because of the acid ballons that were used to drop on US soliders by the VietKong soliders Kong hence the name coon we piss on the coons in the jungle.

cutta1966 you pretty much has the right idea...

[TheCflow123]

the best song ever made i gru up with rap music and i still live at 40

[EddyForest]

Still got the unique originality of the early seventies, this guy will live forever!

[Barmykipper]

Get a grip Greaseman...... it's a visual feast, never heard of ART...... Pete shows some here!!

[SuperAWaC]

looks like this was cut from several performances... unless i am crazy and they have clones playing on different stages at the same time.

[Psalm696969]

@SuperAWaC This video is taken from the "Still growing up live" DVD which, unlike the regular "Growing up live" DVD, is indeed made up of footage shot at various venues throughout Europe. I have both DVDs and though the "Still..." one contains some of my personal favorites that he rarely plays live, I prefer the regular one which is much better in terms of visual show.

[timsim14]

Peter Gabriel can do whatever the fuck he wants. He's a boss. Anyone who created the Lamb lies down on Broadway is a legend.

[crisisangel001]

This is cool!

[sow1964]

LOVE THISB SONG

[indieclock]

segways are friggin' hilarious and peter gabriel knows that.

[epistte]

I like the segways and his facial expressions. These separate musician from those who are artists who use the musical spectrum to express themselves.

[CelticProgeny]

imo some of the cleverest lyrics I've heard.

Granted, once you know the subject the magic's lost but remember the first time you really listened to it and tried to understand it.

[shempsstuntdbl]

At this point, Peter could show up in a chicken suit waving pool noodles, and it would still be cool.

[THEKEYWESTRIDER]

tp my friends i have met during my travels......... love and peace pam,george, ashleigh

[spiritoddity]

Not sure why, but the segways really work for me...great camera shots.

[bumiboka]

A W E S O M E !!!!

[cutta1966]

Peter Gabriel is the epitome of cool. He could care less what any of us think about "riding a segway" WHO GIVES A SH--!! The music is awesome!

[killprocessofficial]

@cutta1966

He's using it really cool - it's to get this kind of robotic precision in the performance - synced with his daughter. Gabriel is a genius.

[dwilson94]

Why not segway? I think it's fun. I am surprised he could do it straightfaced.

[cutta1966]

Great tune. We piss on ? The point is "If looks could kill they'd probably will.....war without tears" Too much hate in the world/no true care for fellow man.

[EnergiewendeMagazin]

That's us - the human race. I'm sorry.

[cutta1966]

@EnergiewendeMagazin :You are correct.

No need to say sorry.  Our "evolved" minds

should get us beyond petty hatred.

[pyrexking9]

@cutta1966 We piss on the coons in the jungle

[sanjacintomercysteet]

@pyrexking9 Its actually piss on the GOONS!

[patphatcat]

@cutta1966 what I hear is "we piss on baboons in the jungle" 

[cutta1966]

@patphatcat Yeah, that's what I hear also. Other racists use this part of the song to stir thoughts.

[patphatcat]

@cutta1966 I guess so. I saw video many years ago. It's about innocent kids playing "WAR" and kids will play with anyone, regardless of race. It seemed like innocent song to me about playing a game of pretend.

[stillphil]

Auto Tuned Peter. Nice.

[joeygsmom]

Peter DID have better hair in 1972 than most women...but in his case hes not bad bald! :-)

[nickywentworth]

He dont say goons, he says

"Whistling tunes we piss on the COONS in the jungle" thats why it was banned..

I dont think he was being racist, he was making a point against racist..

[neohip]

@nickywentworth I was around in those days,and I think ultimately it would of been banned for the P word.

I do think Peter is singing "Goons" here.

The C word as far as I can tell,is limited to the Deep South of the USA.

I never heard that term myself,until I was in my late 20's.I still don't get it today.

I am sure Peter meant Goons in the English sense of Idiots,and not necessarily from the Jungle.

[Ratmaxe]

Absolute Awesome.

[shurot78]

when Gabriel opens his mouth what an amazing voice comes out.. AINT SO?

[jfayiii]

His daughter looks just like him.

[neohip]

@jfayiii @jfayiii

Hopefully,the lass has some hair!

A lady recently told me that she didn't like early Gabriel c1972,because he had better hair than her.

I think she's just seen me,I gotta run!.

[joeygsmom]

a-ha!

yeah youd better run Mister!

[c4sp3r91]

@coverchenko why was that banned?

[kevjards]

very Gabriel,very brilliant

[yoavri]

one of the best "chilling", "exciting", "brilliant" song. always give me the feeling of "war is coming"

[THESOULbornold]

cool

[MeinErsterFilm]

jeux sans frontiers... sascha plays with brit

[BlackDj1985]

Alt, neuaufgelegt, einfach Geil :-)

[climbVertigo]

Is it Paula Cole?

[moezmoe1960]

It's his daughter :) so much fun

[maskedmiketwa]

the segways are so stupid, very gabriel

[BrianGodard]

Is it "She is so popular" or "Jeux sans frontieres"?

[Kannebas]

LoL, I'm glad I wasn't the only one who thought Kate Bush was singing "She's so popular" when they were a kid... =P

[HowieMistress]

I thought it was she's so popular also, but it's Jeux san frontieres."

[UlrichBechir]

Jeux sans frontierers.

[Cimbarius]

JEUX SANS FRONTIERES !!!!

Gabriel rocks - as always !

[intrupa12345]

whats going on here?

[cheesedog97]

scary

[darkpreacher71]

Melanie is the shiznit lol, love this version of this song

[poky1958]

this is the best of all the games videos

[Hunppari]

Awesome song and performance. This clip actually made me buy the DVD.

[MeinErsterFilm]

absolutely unique Grabriel show! great remains great

[adirtypoostick]

the amazing thing is he didnt smile the whole time. How the hell can you ride a segway without cheesing the whole time.

[moneykins]

Guess he wanted to look like a robot, and he knows that a Segway is the best way to achieve that.

[Saberdogdog]

he likes the greatest tech, so he used a segway. it's cool how he is old, but not old.
