PETER GABRIEL - Italian Television Promotional Tour - February 1983

This video contains Peter Gabriel's 1st performance at the Sanremo Festival (4th February 1983) with "Shock the Monkey" - a festival behind the scenes and "Lay your hands on me" in which the percussionist and Peter are playing on top of a base track, crafting an unusual version of the song.

[@MarxxxxExpo69]

A fantastic artefact from his absolute artistic peak era!

" al mio paese abbiamo i circhi e tutti gli animali vincono" Grande Peter,ottima risposta per descrivere il festival di Sanremo...

[@napomania]

troppo geniale per essere vero. tutto questo video è una assurda genialata al limite del grottesco. immagina che io abbia un Gabriel scimmia e invece di parlare di musica Vera guardiamo insieme il festival di Sanremo 🤪😅

[@FerranK68]

I love Mr. Gabriel more & more every day!!!

[@zenpaganwarrior]

Me too :-)

[@barkybarkbarkbark]

Moi aussi.

[@TheOmanJam]

_Lay your hands on me_ is - well - amazing.

[@Mavrus]

Peter che parla italiano! Mi commuovo.

[@ksjoyjespeace]

That Drum Pattern, COLD BLOODED GOOD !!! !

[@Lia-A-Eastwood]

Aaaannnnd, the second high pitched voice... awesome!

[@snavs420]

Finally, a better quality version of the alternate Lay Your Hands on Me

[@FerranK68]

This version of "Lay your hands on me" is nice but I miss Mr Peter Hammill backing vocals. Gabriel is a genial musician

[@bernios3446]

Peter at the height of his incredible talent. 1980-83 were his best years, in my opinion....

[@SwampEye1]

What really gets this song going is the BASS

[@barkybarkbarkbark]

Lordy. Buried treasure. Every day, this with my first cup of covfefe.

[@logonazo]

Peter is THE INTRUDER!!!!!!!!

[@carlosalomar7877]

And he is happy in the dark!....

[@cindymiller6008]

totally off the wall, perfection

[@axoram]

Amo Peter Gabriel tra i piu' grandi autori rock , assieme a David Bowie , Roger Waters , John Lennon e pochi altri ; avevo cancellato dalla memoria questo episodio dello stupendo "Mister fantasy" -Musica da vedere con Carlo Massaerini (chissa' che fine ha fatto) Avevo 19anni e ancora nei primi '80 la musica era grandiosa !! che nostalgia , seven stones...'te possino...

[@71organicmusic9]

pete is the man.....

[@davidbull7210]

That intro looks like it was directed by Ingmar Bergmann. Great interpretation of the studio version.

[@barkybarkbarkbark]

Part of my brain was thinking the same thing.

[@jacquesfinster5034]

A man beyond his time. Totaly avant garde of Pop in all terms: Concept, colors...and always very carismatic and super performer. This is a definitely version.

[@heiditinney4316]

A fantastic artefact from his absolute artistic peak era! Lay your hands on me is - well - amazing. I love Mr. Gabriel more & more every day!!!

[@Sergione59]

Grande Peter!!!!

[@gr.vo.3058]

The PG choreographed dance moves for "Shock the Monkey" are enough to make Bowie eat his heart out.

[@yes_head]

Who knew PG was doing the pop diva thing back in '83?!

[@petergrabiel2861]

EL MEJOR DE TODOS LOS TIEMPOS,GENESIS LO PERDIÓ TODO CON SU MARCHA.. HABÍA MUCHAS ENVIDIAS EN EL GRUPO HACIA EL QUE ERA EL PUTO AMO.

[@Lia-A-Eastwood]

THIS is crazy... good, PG, what are you doing there? But I love you, can'T help it. *lol* :)

[@abendjelti]

je suis obstine par cette video de peter gabriel la voix est magnifique la on reconnait tout le talent de l archange gabriel c est vraiment un artiste unique

[@thenomadicpen]

This is madness! Love it!

[@williambrock2230]

Nice video; if only I knew what they were saying.

[@napomania]

lol lol 🤣 don't worry ..it was a thing like absurd comedy

[@earlbrackett6742]

great clip, thanks very much.

[@ken131]

The dialogue sequences are making me laugh so hard! It's so cute! (whether that's intentional or not)

[@virusbebola]

Intentional, they are actually, making fun of the Italian “festival di sanremo”, vero popular in Italy but I actually hate it 😆

[@brianwhite3410]

I wish that vocal mix was on the album.

[@nagual195656]

Ferrara 1983, luglio io, c'ero

[@francescojoux252]

alessandro mura anche io!! :)

[@MrMarcolondonuk]

Anche io

[@geoffreyfowler9198]

Gabriel totally ripped off Ghost for that look! Oh wait, this was 35 years ago.

[@AlexFeltcha.k.a.SonicAL]

@Seven Stones Pardon me 4 asking this Seven Stones but do you have any idea who the musicians were who played for Peter Gabriel on this video by any chance? the Lead Guitarist, Bassist, Keyboardist & Drummer?

[@kristallin]

Who's the lovely lady in the red jacket at 7:20?

[@TheOmanJam]

+kristallin She's old and grey now probably. That's what the song _Ripples_ was all about!

[@AlexFeltcha.k.a.SonicAL]

+TheOmanJam Seriously?

[@faben70]

[@lamecasuelas2]

Wait a second, that's not Tony Levin!!!

[@barkybarkbarkbark]

Consensus says he just left his mustache at home that day.

[@davidgarione2206]

How bizarre it is.

[@deetgeluid]

Too bad none of this is live.

[@astridsegall]

So ein Lügner sagt er spricht außer Englisch nur Französisch.
