Lovetown, live in 1993 during the Secret World tour. This track, which was a B-side of the 'US' album, was played on the early leg of the tour with full theatrics. Sadly it was gone from the setlist by the time the official video was filmed, and so there's no pro-shot footage of this around.
This video has been compiled and restored using 5 different audience-shot videos from the first leg of the tour. Now you can see Lovetown in more enjoyable quality than what's out there as single-cam, shaky, footage! :)
Hope you enjoy it! :)
Tony, we love You !

Just checked the web and it looks like he stopped playing this song on the two dates in London before the tour jumped the pond and landed back in the States which is where I saw him in Worcester, MA. I guess my memory isn't as bad as I thought!

This is a beautiful song. I saw him on his Secret World Tour and I don't remember him playing this either. Then again, I don't remember what I did yesterday much less what exact track was played at a concert over 16 years ago. Thanks for posting this vid! What I do remember is that Peter Gabriel live rocked my socks off!

Lovetown wasn't played at the Secret World Tour show that I saw. . .wish it wasn't cut from the setlist!
Peter Gabriel is a musical genius!!! : )
danielkerryann. . .If you like this video. . .I suggest you get your hands on a Peter Gabriel Secret World Live dvd, or Growing Up Live dvd. You will definitely be hooked after viewing these videos!

Oops, just kinda surfed in... I'm obviously in the minority here, as I'm not (yet) a Peter Gabriel fan...
But if this is filppin' brilliant! Ok, where do I go from here?
Nice job on the cam work...

I agree about "More Than This" - one of his most spiritually evocative songs - but I emphatically disagree that Lovetown is in the same league as Kiss That Frog" - ??? Kiss That Frog is pure pop, whereas Lovetown has SOUL and is ever SO tasty.
