PG is in the top 5 of greatest artists in my book. Outstanding person too, with WOMAD and such

Beautifully plodding.

Passionately droning.

Zealously monotone.

I understand Pete, but I think you need to set this one free. Please make it end.

My wife turned me on to this gem. It helped her through her parents divorce when she was 15. What an album!

Thank you Peter. Your music will always be in my heart.
 
Didn't "Passion" come after this one?  It is rather outstanding and hugely influential.

This album came shortly after he and Rosanna Arquette parted ways and apparently played something of a cathartic role for him.  Turns out the album really helped me thru my own rather unpleasant breakup at that time.  All better now!

Musically he really does write some good stuff, he really ought to go ahead and hire someone to sing his songs for him though, it is not like he can't afford it now.

Peter Gabriel is one of my all time favorites, but this song (and the album) is way below his normal standards - 7

I hope he means that he sends love out into the world so love will come back to him and not that he enjoys being loved.

I like his earlier work too, but sometimes we need a little therapy.

Nope, black321 has it right.  "Us" was released in 1992.  "OVO" came out in 2000.

That said, this isn't the '92 version.  Allmusic.com says the track appeared twice more: in '94 as a B-side to Lovetown and in '97 on a Huckleberry House 30th Anniversary disc.  I don't know which one wins the prize, but I'd bet this version is one of those.

This is NOT the album version of this song.  Anyone know where it's from?  I think I like the original better, but it may just be what I'm used to after hearing it hundreds of times.  This album, along with the "Telephone" live double disc, was road trip music for years.

The only reason this insipid song is getting airplay is because Peter Gabriel's name is attached to it.  If anyone else had written/performed this song, it would never get a second glance.

Everything that I've heard off of this disc sounds the same to me. Now, before rolling your eyes and chastising me for failing to recognize genius, be aware that I have a long history listening to Peter. From Foxtrot through the Lamb to So, I've loved listening to Peter (and the rest of Genesis, yes).

Everything that I've heard from him in the last, wow, twenty years just sounds to me like more Birdy.
