      I saw Tony Levin playing with King Crimson in 1984 on the "Three of a Perfect Pair" tour. "Sleepless" off that album is Tony at his best, IMO.

      No way, man. The Secret World version blows this away. PG is about a hundred times more animated, so much so that he’s practically hyperactive! All while managing to sound great. Paula Cole is on another level completely. The whole song is just so much more energetic and joyous. And as it’s an energetic and joyous song, that can only be a good thing.
      I saw the Growing Up concert live and it was great. But it wasn’t a patch on Secret World. That was peak PG.

    "This Day in Music" - 26 July 1986, Peter Gabriel went to No.1 on the US singles chart with 'Sledgehammer', a No.4 hit in the UK. The song's music video has won a number of awards, including a record nine MTV Awards at the 1987 MTV Video Music Awards, and Best British Video at the 1987 Brit Awards. Gabriel was also nominated for three Grammy Awards. As of 2011, 'Sledgehammer' is the most played music video in the history of MTV.

    I remember when I was able to play it really loud with 150w with 12" louds...amazing!
    Since then I have always liked this song and the orig. claymation video.

      Nope! Gabriel is 10x better. Collins is a great drummer but always been just a substitution after Gabriel left.

    Me and my football team received an impromptu live performance of this song when we were touring the old Wembley Stadium, in what must have been about 1989. While we walked alongside the pitch from one end, workmen were busy installing a stage - you could hear hammers and drills, etc. while our guide was telling us about the pitch’s draining system and so on. Then, that distinctive intro to ‘Sledgehammer’ blared out and we were treated to an impromptu live performance by Peter Gabriel and his band rehearsing this song. They got about a third of the way through it, stopped, then performed the whole song from scratch. Loved it ever since. I also like Morgan James’s take on it; sounds very different from a female perspective.

    So much to love about this video! The song, the performances, the video making etc. But I particularly love the joy exuding from Tony Levin (bass) and David Rhodes (guitar), two long-time collaborators who must have played this song live over 1000 times yet they still bop around like we did as teenagers listening to it the first time around! Thanks for posting.

    Esta canción me revive cada que la escucho. Tiene una gran energía que puede verse y sentirse a través de todo el performance, y de la que es imposible sustraerse. Ojos , oídos y corazón al unísono en un continuo gozo para los sentidos. Ni que decir del enorme carisma del genio Peter Gabriel. ¡Gracias!...
