I saw PG play both in ‘85 and in 86/87 (Security and So tours) and they were both the most moving and joyous shows I have ever seen. Two best concerts I have ever attended hands down (and I’ve seen quite a few in my 56 years), and this was the best song of the show. You left exhilarated. Saw him again during the New Blood Orchestra tour, and while he has aged and obviously slowed down, he is still captivating to watch and listen to. An incredibly charismatic and talented performer.
@William Stefens something to do with Martin Scorese who is the producer of this, and that is why some things were cut and why it will never be released on bluray.
3:40 Anyone in the performing arts will tell you that for the billing artist to be looking to his guest for direction is a significant sign of humility. He didn't just welcome them to his experience - he knows he's also a guest in theirs ❤️
As an awestruck Peter Gabriel fan of nearly forty years, a musician and singer-songwriter, a loving humanist, author, poet, philosopher and man of science, I concur with you sir and I can, with great confidence forward that indeed, "this is the brotherhood of man".
It's not the same if you can't watch this live performance.....they just added so much to this....I just watch it over and over....never tire of it....
If you just simply reflect on the lyrics... let alone the amazing musicianship and song crafting that went into this masterpiece.... it is at it's heart, a beautiful reflection on the unkowable and almost unspeakable power that love for another can have over our entire life and existence. Anyone who has known that depth of love, knows exactly what he meant...."in your eyes"
I remember seeing this performance on tv when I was younger. All the TH-cam videos I’ve seen of it omit the part where they all gather onstage and dance. I thought for years that I had just made that part up in my head. Glad to see I didn’t… 😊
The echo that went out of the theatre, bounced off of the surrounding mountain, and out into the night. Those lucky people that night to have been there.
Does anyone else remember the Earls Court 28 June 1987 with Kate Bush guest? Also, the non-functioning microphone for 'San Jacinto' meant that he had to re-start the whole show! To see such a show was a privilege. It felt like a free gift. I missed the train home and knocked on a Uni mate's door in North London at 1am and they let me in. (Thanks Mister Sinha!)
I had the pleasure to see him front row in 2001 at The Coral Sky amphitheater in West Palm Beach, Florida. He had a problem with his ear monitors and stopped as he motioned to the others to do the same. He opened with Red Rain and no more than eight bars into it he stopped. Told the audience what the problem was and after it was corrected started from the top. Those are the type of musicians that I like to work with. One's who can improvise and not fall apart when something goes wrong!
5Os, 6Os, 7Os, 8Os, 9Os, beyond, always adapting and changing - cf. Peter Gabriel's career from 7Os to present - this is ROCK MUSIC at its greatest, this is HEART and SOUL and SPIRIT and REVOLUTION against all forms of injustice and inhumanity and stultification of humanity; yes, young people and especially young musicians, BEHOLD, and CONTINUE and REVIVE when it needs reviving; corporate "rock" has ALWAYS sucked and STILL SUCKS, throw it off again and again and again and listen to the greats and CARRY ON; this music keeps us ALIVE, it keeps ME alive ...
For those who listened to 99X in Atlanta back in the 90's: This is the version that Sean D. played back then, from his private collection (probably because it wasn't available on CD). He was the only one who could play it (though I think he let Yvonne or Jill play it once or twice) and it disappeared from the station when he left in 2000.
Yep, he would often get asked to play it, and he would usually announce he was about to play it so people could get their tape recorder ready to record it. That's how I got it originally!
Supposons je vous prie que tous nous soyons en état d’acceptation de ce qui est (ce qui ne veut pas dire que nous cautionnons ce qui est) mais pour transformer ce qui est sous nos yeux, il est indispensable en 1er lieu de l’accepter… Donc il nous faut alchimiser! A cette fin, pour transformer un état négatif en positif, il nous faut reconnaître sa ou ses natures et… propos oser afin que le retournement se fasse. Si vous me suivez jusqu’ici: "La nature de tout ce qui est négatif n’est-elle pas inscrite dans la "division"?"… Merci de me répondre et en conscience me dire ou imaginer ce qu’il adviendra dans le cas où, tous en état d’acceptation, nous oeuvrerons tous ensemble afin que cette source négative ne soit plus! Imaginez svp… et dites-moi… Pour ma part, je souris tellement c’est beau!

I was there...exceptional performance
I can't even begin to imagine how much fun that had to have been.
@William Stefens I had the video to this concert, but I would like to see a bluray release for this.
So jealous

Been there too. Gabriel's performance was the best of that night!

@@indiegun
Can you Please explain the Man of Science part??
Oh my God.....you are so observant, and correct.
One of my favourite, if not absolute favourite, live performances of any song any time!
Wazza Me too
@@thecreaturesofhabit1848 And me three!
I got to see this for free but got the sack for going. It WAS worth it!
It's not the same if you can't watch this live performance.....they just added so much to this....I just watch it over and over....never tire of it....
...and this, kids, THIS is what music was back in the eighties! BEHOLD!
Youssou is totally on his game in this particular performance.
My first live concert!! So many memories!!
και εγώ εκεί ήμουν !

Well said!
beautifully summed up
YESSSSSS....
Somehow he has made the live version even better than studio version. Simply incredible!
My first concert
I remember seeing this performance on tv when I was younger.
All the TH-cam videos I’ve seen of it omit the part where they all gather onstage and dance. I thought for years that I had just made that part up in my head. Glad to see I didn’t…
😊
This is not just music and art: this is an appreciation for life in it's many subjective forms. Beautiful. What a performance.
Amei e amo de montão sempre marcou em minha vida. ❤❤
This is just perfection.
I was in this concert and it was one of the most beautiful nights of my life!
Wow, wow, wow...best Version ever from this wonderful Song.. Listen 2022 again...
The most perfect version of this song, no question. ❤️
8:32 is a just magical moment. And how can you not love that ending with the back lit hand.
The echo that went out of the theatre, bounced off of the surrounding mountain, and out into the night.
Those lucky people that night to have been there.
Youssou should be featured on this studio track. Exploitation at it's finest.
Huh, what?: 😳🤦♂️
Keppoukouy tey micro yay baaaaayam❤❤❤
i never used to cry when listening to songs, but this broke me. this is so powerful. truly shows how talented and wonderful peter is. 💛
What an absolutely joyous thing.
Such pure elution. Wonderful.
What a concert! Such a perfect song and this live concert must have been something out of this world. I wish I had been either!
I was there, started 12th and ended up close and personal front damn freaky row...! Best open stadium concert i've been up to date!!!!
My all time favorite song done to perfection..
can't believe this is such a long time ago, I will ALWAYS love this!!!
Just plain awesome musical talent and execution...they make it seem easy.
Very much so. Considering this was the end of the tour, it's safe to say that they had a ton of practice.
Manu Katche - Drums
Tony Levin - Bass
David Sancius - Keys
And......David Rhodes on guitar🎸
Youssou N'Dour at 8:28! Wow. He was so cool in that hat and jacket!
Such joy in this song and performance. I really wish I had been at this concert.
❤ @Who AreYou
I was at their concert in Bologna, Italy... Years ago. Still remember it, as if it were yesterday
Le meilleur version de in your eyes From Sénégal 🇸🇳❤️
Que dupla fantástica.
Goosebumps every time
septembre 1987 ! septembre 2018 ! 31ans merci Peter Gabriel pour ce que tu as fait pour Youssou Ndour

HAPPY BIRTHADAY YOUSOU N DOUR!!!

This is purely beautiful. (Αθήνα!!!)
The Dates: 7-8-9 October 1987 at Lycabettus Theatre
A piece of brilliance
5Os, 6Os, 7Os, 8Os, 9Os, beyond, always adapting and changing - cf. Peter Gabriel's career from 7Os to present - this is ROCK MUSIC at its greatest, this is HEART and SOUL and SPIRIT and REVOLUTION against all forms of injustice and inhumanity and stultification of humanity; yes, young people and especially young musicians, BEHOLD, and CONTINUE and REVIVE when it needs reviving; corporate "rock" has ALWAYS sucked and STILL SUCKS, throw it off again and again and again and listen to the greats and CARRY ON; this music keeps us ALIVE, it keeps ME alive ...
Utterly Amazing
Good Song.
Prächtig,prachtig
