I'm a 57 year old metal head. Somehow this guy is my favorite artist of all time!! His heart is in every song he does. If you can listen past his incredible and unique voice, you are treated to some of the greatest music available. There's not a song that I don't like but "Don't give up" helped me through some dark times. Who knows, I may owe my life to this guy. Thank you Peter!!!!

[@hthunem]

I'm a 54 year old metal head with cancer, and I can sympathize.

Played at my mother's funeral. It was around then and seems appropriate. Mother was very spiritual I'm felt her near me when I played it.

What an outstanding artist. There will never be another Peter Gabriel.

That voice!!! So much heart, passion, drive, longing... I am forever grateful for you Mr. Gabriel 🙏

[@gr.vo.3058]

Hands down the most commercially underrated front-man in The History of Rock Music. His stage presence and stage moves rivaled anyone in his hey day. There are so many layers to the man, that he blazed a trail that is hard to follow.

[@palosanto7179]

High quality song. He is a genius. You can like his songs or not but you can not discuss about the quality of his music.

[@heloisanovaes5702]

Finally someone mentioned the spectacular band called Genesis! I was about 14 years old but I can't forget Peter Gabriel's voice. The band was marvellous. My generation was very lucky for having so many wonderfull musicians from all kind of rhythms but the "progressive rock" was the most sophisticated and my favourite. Of course there were Beatles, Rolling Stones, Led Zeppellin and lots of those special musicians. Peter Gabriel left Genesis and started in his solo career. Always a genius and one of the best. Thanks Peter Gabriel for all the marvellous songs you shared with my generation and the other ones! ❤ ⚘ 🙌 👏

[@SoundmanCH]

Just imagine the rush of feelings Melanie has when she steps on stage with her father! And then Peter singing to the audience with his daughter on his side 🌞

I've been a fan since '72 or so when I first bought Selling England. He's been a trendsetter for all those years, and his voice... unreal. There's not a more soulful voice I've ever heard. Thank you, Peter, for over 50 years of great music!

Age is doing Peter Gabriel very well. He's a handsome, wonderful man

[@Scodiddly]

Wow, he looks exactly like he did in 2002. ;)

[@progtoeternity]

Hard to believe this song was recorded almost 20 years ago... I recall this album being my lifeline when the world seemd to enter into some sort of choas, reaching a peak with the attack on the New York towers... But also with my good friend Yvon, who used to love this opus and make me appreciate it, who made his "no way out" move out of this world, so sadly. My friend would always try to defend the beauty and optimism behind the darkest first peel of those songs. Some shape of catharsis I think he was trying to tell me, something I dearly hope his soul was able to find on his way out of of here. After all he was right: Peter's music keeps us all.. up !

[@kurtzimmerman1637]

I have been listening to Mr. Gabriel since his genesis days . always a great performer, musician, song writer and person. thank you Peter! have a great day!

[@sergiob924]

I've been listening to Peter's songs for 50 years, hence my profile picture. This song is one of the many gems of his immense repertoire. When these dark days will end, I hope to see him live in Italy once again!!

[@goesjem]

His voice is still as throaty, warm and beautiful as it was on those first opening lines on 'Looking For My Life'. It has matured though and sounds much warmer. Peter's voice always sits perfectly 'inside' the mix. Not a loud voice, but so longing. Hard to describe it really.

[@roughtakes7271]

Yet you just did did describe it..........wonderfully!

[@patrickcrotty6685]

um yeah, Peter Gabriel's voice is incredible...musical genius.

[@Jwilson044]

[@vmaximum101]

Peter Gabriel. One of the best male vocalist to ever come out of the UK. This man stirs up emotions on a more spiritual level. When I was interviewed to be a wrestler for the then WWF. I wanted "The Tower that are people" to be my entrance music if I had got the job.

[@IronMustacheGaming]

And Tony Levin on bass? Perfect!

[@jchis9852]

Got to see Tony live playing with Anderson Bruford Wakeman & Howe in 1989. He was playing hi "funk fingers" that night. It was an awesome show.

[@chromakey84]

For the last 30 years or so

[@terreneuve6912]

I never understood why Tony Levin has such a great reputation whereas no one actually plays one of his basslines. Even Sting has composed more memorable bass lines than him. But put drumstick on the tip of your fingers, play with Peter Gabriel and then everybody knows your moustache.

[@frankmcbride7051]

@@terreneuve6912 I assume you are basing this opinion on actually listening to his work, though I don't understand how. Tony has amazing feel, he doesn't just go for the obvious but often is a big part of defining a given song and he knows when to shine and when to blend. I would definitely put him on a top 20 bassists list.

[@socratesxo]

@@terreneuve6912 I’m going to dive into the musical world of King Crimson, in wich Levine has contributed a lot. How about you?

I was so pleased to see this on my feed today. Peter Gabriel is a master performer and songwriter. I have listened to his songs from the Genesis to today, and hopefully many years to come. He has gathered such talented musicians who have been with him forever. I have only seen him once live in Vancouver, but would relish the idea of seeing him once more. Peter's music has gotten me through good and bad times, and his music speaks to our hearts and souls. He has spread important political, spiritual messages through his music, as well as the power of love, everywhere. Thank You!
