[@neilpemberton5523]

I bought the CD of this tour because I loved PG's great album So. I loved it from the first time I played it and became an instant Paula Cole fan. Not long ago I heard the studio version with Sinead and she just wasn't anywhere near as good as Paula. Mind you, I haven't heard the live version with Sinead, which I'm sure would have been better than the studio version.

This song along with Come Talk to Me is the soundtrack to the years before my divorce. It was a dream-like 3 years, watching her float away, finding myself closer to God than ever before, sensing her affair while not wanting to believe it, reviewing my missteps, asking for conversation, asking to repair, asking to listen to this album together, never doing it except alone.

[@kamohelomahloko8817]

This live version is beautiful! Still listening in 2023

[@ralphdarvill4055]

That's a wonderful version of the song. Peter's voice matches Paula's extraordinarily well. The band plays with tremendous restraint to allow the voices to tell a beautiful tale.

[@neilpemberton5523]

This tour was Peter Gabriel's crowning achievement. I saw the CD in the store and bought it on a whim. Great decision.

[@108grog]

Paula Cole's volume and tonal shading from note to note and phrase to phrase was superb , perfectly complimenting Peter's lead, coming up to lead for a moment, then receding for background lines during the instrumental sections. Exquisite and sensitive musicality !!!

[@patrickchase5614]

Cole was both singing Sinead O'Connor's part on this song, and had replaced O'Connor on the tour literally days earlier when this was recorded. I honestly prefer Cole's live performance here to O'Connor's studio original, and it's amazingly strong for having come to both the tour and Gabriel's catalog on short notice. It's an amazing display of pre-autotune vocal talent.

My 1st time seeing this. He is so brilliantly cinematic in his videos, and now I see it's a component of his live shows as well. Circling the tree, but still not connecting, and his hand reaching for her but her back is turned. The imagery is as beautiful as the song. Peter is a master at his craft.

[@mookyyzed2216]

This song just pierces right to the soul. It speaks in a way I can't really put a finger on. There aren't many things in life that touch so deep. Masterpiece, Perfection, Indescribable are words that don't fully paint the whole picture. It gives you the feeling that you've longed to have, but didn't know you needed.

5:52 onwards in particular has to be one of the most emotional moments in Peter Gabriel's catalogue. Everything about it just screams bittersweet sorrow, the high falsetto from Peter combined with the doudouk, it swoons and it sighs and it cries and it weeps and I've never heard anything like it before and it brings me to tears every time. This song just screams sadness at the expense of love
