Refugees - Peter Hammill

Originally from the Van der Graaf Generator's album "The Least We Can Do Is Wave to Each Other" (1970), Peter Hammill re-recorded "Refugees" in his home studio specially for the release of the movie "Nos Hacemos Falta" (2001).

Lyrics by Peter Hammill

[@athinakoufaki3329]

My youth' s and earliest life's biggest, greatest artist in every sense of the term. What more could I possibly say about Peter Hammill, an artist of this calibre, beauty, integrity, innocence, candor and depth, to say the least. Thanks Peter once again for the beauty you have imbued into my life.

Poetico, immaginario, epico Hammill

[@davidsmith6355]

Peter and VDGG seemed always to be better appreciated in European countries more so than in england. Kind of sums things up well really. Love Peter & VDGG and all the people that love him/them. 🙂

[@andxmenx]

Bloody hell, mate, I nearby had an heart attack ... how beautiful !

[@psycurro]

Blown away. Countless times I've listened to this most beautiful song, since CGL introduced me to VDGG all those years ago. But this version is new to me. Jesus Peter, your music touches me like nothing else.

[@davidstamp1010]

His very best song, timeless and more relevant today than when it was written nearly 50 years ago....(showing my age here)

[@enzogalli5506]

un genio, un poeta, una voce incredibile e magnifica, un GRANDE sia come leader di quella meravigliosa band VDGG, sia come solista, ha composto album di immenso spessore, capolavori assoluti e pezzi fantastici....grazie Peter x le tante e stupende emozioni che ci hai regalato in tanti anni di grande e sublime musica.
