From my limited PG knowledge, there are very few of his songs that I don't particularly like ("Shock the Monkey" and "Sledgehammer" spring to mind.) I love this one - hopefully someday will get a chance to hear the live version about which folks are raving. It's the way he pulls a listener into his brain and shows them what he's thinking, even if sometimes it's scary or disconcerting.

I won't stop spending money on his music, unless he does Partridge Family covers. {#Mrgreen}

The live version is on the Growing Up Live DVD- I highly recommend this- I think it is one of the best concerts I have seen.  Wish Bill would play the live version- it has much more energy and an excellent bass rhythm.

This song works.  PG doing something different and singing ala Genesis for a change in his solo stuff.

Peter Gabriel's greatest music was when Daniel Lanois was producing him and when he was inspired by the muse of a loss of a love.

Hi hey-day is when Daniel Lanois was producing him for those two great albums.  You tell his influence in songs such as this one.

The new album coming out is full orchestration... But there are some awesome videos of some of them on his website! The Red Rain one is spectacular. Can't wait.

This has got to be my favorite PG song live. I never get tired of listening to it.
It had been a while since I've heard the studio version. His voice if totally different.

Seing things that were not there...

Just amazing
