Peter Gabriel - Biko Live (Back to Front Tour - London)

[@iAPX432]

Biko is not a song, it's an international anthem against racism. That unite us.

[@JovanTrivic-g9y]

Said someone who is ancestor of this all scums which conqured half of planet. Yeah, he is simbol of freedom!!!

[@dikbozo]

You only really understand this song after you have sung it with all your new friends, live and in concert with Peter. It affects the rest of your life.

[@psycholinguist1]

I saw Peter Gabriel in 1985 on his tour following the release of his 4th album. The last song he sang was "Biko". When the lights went up, no one left the theatre...just a sea of flames from lighters. Incredible experience. One of a kind.

[@Oh_I_Will]

Congratulations

I walked right past the man at a Womad festival in Reading ounce not noing that it was him my brother said do you know who that was after the fact that he would now what the man looks like. given to the fact anyway a chance missed to give the big man a hug.

[@mithrandir0704]

Most likely it was the "So" tour. If it was the 4th album that would be 1982/83

[@molokomalahlela7562]

This song always reminds me of where we come from as blacks. I am happy generations to come will know that the freedom of South Africa was received at a cost. I am a South Africa. I salute those who caught for the democracy. The fight is not over!

[@crampoos]

Again...a timeless tune with universal lyrics. Unfortunately, still there are young people risking their lives for our freedom. Love it so much.

Chills every time. This song is my private Candlelight.

Still on my heart in 2021. I was upset because a person I know is in South Africa, and had no clue who Steven Biko was/is

Mandela laughs! His heart is finally full of joy as he listens to Youssu N'Dour and Peter Gabriel! And I feel the same as you, Brother Doug - even after 30 years this song makes me cry and tears wet my cheeks ... (and reading the many comments of many friends I discover that we are not alone! This song, these words they are so powerful as to push anyone with a heart to tears ...!) This is the Art of Love! You are great, Peter!

Ich kann mich von diesem Song nicht trennen; Peter Gabriel ist einzigartig und begleitet mich mit Euphorie mein Leben lang!

[@KerenRileyfilm]

We need this song in 2022 as much as we needed it when Peter wrote it. As many western democracies shift to the extreme right and strip away human rights, the life and spirit of Stephen Biko must inspire us all to fight injustice & stand up for those who cannot.

[@DanielSnyder-bz8kp]

The extreme left does the same thing.

[@itkojecockot]

Peter is such genius live performer

[@elisavieira737]

One of THE most powerful songs ever created, performed! Love, LOVE PG!!!!!

[@dougcoombes8497]

This song made me cry the first time I heard it, it still does every time. Love transcendes hate, Biko will be remembered far longer than those who murdered him.

[@MyShareVideos]

you never walk alone, crying while this song plays

[@larainecolwell2440]

I get goosebumps and cry when I hear it. Especially the end. Makes me remember when I saw him and he left the stage but the audience still stood in solidarity against hate.

To those of you who are younger. This song may have ended apartheid. This song made the west notice what was happening in south africa. Peter Gabriel likely changed the world for the better with a song. How beautiful is that

😍😍Il brano, stupendo, di Peter Gabriel (ex Genesis), è un omaggio all'attivista sudafricano anti-apartheid Steve Biko ucciso dalla polizia nel 1977 mentre si trovata in stato di fermo. PER BIKO:✊✊✊ In più... oltre al significato estremamente nobile, questo brano mi fa letteralmente impazzire!🔝🔝🔝

I saw this performed at the Human Rights Now concert in 1998, Amnesty Int' celebrating the Declaration of Human Rights. Apartheid was still in place and the audience response for this song was huge and emotional, but today we still need this, still need reminding that all lives matter, especially the historically oppressed. It's not good enough to say everyone's now equal when any population still live in poverty under consistent pervasive discrimination.
