I lost my dad to cancer 20 years ago and the line “son,grab your things I’ve come to take you home” makes me tear up,every single time-that’s the power of a great line
@Braden C McClure British pop group wo did a lot of dance and electric music. They're actually very popular. Here's a couple of links Solisbury Hill th-cam.com/video/yNwD2X3kjlk/w-d-xo.html Respect th-cam.com/video/x34icYC8zA0/w-d-xo.html Sometimes th-cam.com/video/S1a8QABKNo0/w-d-xo.html
I saw Peter Gabriel on the solisbury hill tour back in the day in Germany and it was a life changing experience. Peter Gabriel is one of the most influential and creative artists of the decade
Peter had left Genesis and was nervous about it, so he wrote this song to work it out within himself, and to give himself a bit of a pep talk that he was doing the right thing by going solo. I'll bet you'd dig his song "Shock The Monkey" if you haven't heard it yet.
Having been a fan already, this song helped me out a lot. I had to leave home and go out on my own due to family tragedy/drama...a friend of mine told me this song was part of my story when I left.
Jamal, I've been going through a rough time lately, and I just wanted to drop a line to say that your warm and generous spirit has brought me some joy and kept me going. I appreciate you.
This was my late husband's favourite song. He would sing it and I will always remember the emotions he would show as he we sang along. And yes, it was a song I shared at his celebration.
This is without a doubt my favorite song of all time. When my dad would pick me up from high school he’d say “grab your things I’ve come to take you home” at least once a month. We’d sing this song on the way home constantly. I graduated last year in May, and now with online college the two of us don’t have our alone in the car music time.
The song is literally about him leaving Genesis. The first verse was when he came to the realization that he needed to leave. The 2nd verse is about him telling the band but staying to finish the tour and keeping quiet about leaving until after the tour, and the final verse refers to the last photos he took as part of the band at the Savoy Hotel where he's smiling and waving to the camera and the rest of the band weren't smiling.
Steven I absolutely love the old Genesis when Peter Gabriel with the lead singer and Phil Collins was a drummer and I agree Lamb Lies Down and carpet crawlers are two of my favorite
Boy did I dance when saw and heard him sing this live!!! My most fave song of his and he has many greats. This song means so much to me in a more personal way as I am sure it does to many xxx🦅
We become so programmed to accept that we should suck it up and keep on plugging away that we can forget we can and should walk away sometimes. I've had to drop everything and reinvent myself, despite well-meant advice, and no song calls it up like this one. Thanks for this Jamel! I agree with other comments that "Biko" is a Gabriel song you'd enjoy.
This is my very favorite song ever, and has been for decades. The lyrical imagery, the unconventional rhythm (7/4 !), the percussion... ! It just transports me.
Agreed. I'm not a physically demonstrative guy. I don't do the wave at football games and such, but both times I saw Gabriel back in the day, by the time he got to Biko, I was standing up, pumping my fist into the air with all the rest. Very few shows get to me in that way.
Admittedly, l was worried when he left Genesis that l'd never hear from him again. He did say he wanted to spend time with family and decompress. I needn't have worried. His first solo albums were like nothing ever heard before. Absolutely stunning music!
The whole thing around him leaving, I learned about later from my parents - who introduced me to it from putting on the last album Peter Gabriel did with Genesis: "The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway". A concept album, which was - as they told me - a great amount of the impetus which put Peter on the path out of Genesis. They were going two different directions, and he had stress in his life which was a problem... ... luckily, Genesis survived. Peter survived. They both went on to great things. Things like that split destroy other bands.
This song! This song . . . I loved it from the first play on the radio way back then. I loved it so much that I never wanted, nor did I find out, the full meaning of it. It makes me cry anyway.
This song evoked a sense of nostalgia even when it was first released. One of his most beautiful songs is “Mercy Street.” I hope you’ll check it out. 💙
@@richardgoddard37 Mine too.....Decades ago, I was in a bar and wanted to hear Solsbury Hill, but punched the wrong key on the jukebox and heard Mercy Street for the very first time.....I never went to that bar again without playing that tune. Love his live performance of the tune from Athens.....th-cam.com/video/ssytPGW481A/w-d-xo.html
You’re absolutely right... it is an ode to the poet Anne Sexton who battled depression & mental issues prior to her taking her own life. It’s not just a song - it’s a portrait in words and melody.
There's no words for how much I love this song. I can close my eyes & see every image he describes. The lyrics are amazing. Solsbury Hill is a real place in Bath, England & he used to jog by it. If he had never left Genesis we would never have the iconic song "In Your Eyes".
@@itgetter9 That’s an interesting interpretation, I can see that...you know it’s a great and thought provoking song when it holds many different meanings for people. This song meant a lot to me when I was going through a major life upheaval, it still does but has taken on other meanings now that I’m older and in a different place.
@@itgetter9 That’s the beauty of art and music, it’s all open for interpretation and our interpretations tell a lot about who we are individually and how we think and feel :)
GREAT album as a whole. Peter is a talent and legend of his time. The "So" album is a must and should be in everyone's music library. Seriously, one of the best albums of music ever.
This song will always be my favorite by him, it's so special, you have to be a genius to create a song like this. Once you hear it, you'll never forget, at least, not me!
Literally, the song that probably meant the most to me in my lifetime. At every major change and decision I've made in my life, this song was there for me. Just follow your heart, it won't turn out wrong.
He's my favorite artist. I've seen him in concert 4 times. The stage productions are always fabulous! Lots of live versions of this song. All of them are amazing!
Peter is an amazing artist. I fell in love with his voice in Genesis, and followed him after he went solo. He's got a massive catalogue. I hope you dive deep into it. This is one of my favs.
Peter Gabriel is truly one of the most heartfelt and spiritual artist i've ever heard. I love the songs 'In the Blood of Eden, Mercy Street, Red Rain and so many others. One of the very best of all time!
It's funny you made the comment about being played at funerals, this is one that I have picked to be played at my funeral. It really is about new beginnings.
@Billy White Jr. maybe he doesn't know what time signature is? Don't have to be an ass about it. Explain signature to him and why this song is different in said way. Or go about the rest of your life being a miserable prick.
top tune.... was living in chile for 5 years.. when i decided to come home i heard this song.. the line son grab your things am going to take you home ..made me weep.. i was 52
I don't find it sad at all, the last line redeems it all. "You can keep my things they've come to take me home. " I'm shedding my baggage and moving on."
The World Wide Live version of this song really emphasizes the "boom boom boom" part. It also truly embodies the whimsical vibe of the song. Sure you lose all the cool panning effects of the guitars and vocal improvisations at the end.
One of my high school classmates, Steve The Deacon Hunter, is playing the acoustic guitar (solos too) on this recording. I think of him every time I hear this song.
The song that made me a Peter Gabriel fan for life! If you like more heartfelt music by him, I suggest checking out "Here Comes the Flood", but NOT the version from his first solo album, but from Robert Fripp's solo album Exposure or from any of Gabriel's live performances in late 1970s or early 1980s.
Also, "Lay Your Hands on Me", and without a doubt, "Biko". Then for a lot of graphic imagery and Symbolism regarding weddings, "Family and the Fishing Net"
Longtime fan...wished I'd seen him live with Genesis. Thankfully, I caught him in '83, at Commonwealth Stadium with Bowie & the Tubes. Then again in the early 90's...I of a kind, great!
Yeah Peter Gabriel's first album that was probably the best example of somebody re-defining themselves. or Reinventing themselves this whole album was absolutely transformative it really was a big departure from what Genesis was doing I mean it took him a long time to get a solo album out because the last time he had done with Genesis was in 1974 and this first solo album came out in 77 that's where you two probably do a reaction to every song on that first album and you wouldn't be disappointed there's even a blue song on there can you believe that s***? But of course it's totally unconventional it has some twists and turns you've never heard in a blues song anywhere it's a song called waiting for the big one all right my man well there's that one song moribund. And the Burgermeister
My personal favorite will always be "Carpet Crawlers" by him, and then this one. Then "Games without Frontiers" these songs just blow my mind. So good!
This song reminds me of all the times I was there for my son as he battled his opioid addiction. Sadly he relapsed and died last February after almost six years clean and going back to college to earn two masters degrees in teaching and leaving an 11 year old daughter. I took him home more times than I can count but in the end it was one to few! I miss him so much!

"Red Rain" by Peter Gabriel is a must-listen!
I love that song!
Oh I love Red Rain too. It’s amazing .
It's my hi fi test track! First thing I play with any change or new kit. 😁😎🤠🏴🎱👾🐉
Agreed!
The entire 'So' album is great. 3 big radio hits - Sledgehammer, In Your Eyes, and Big Time - but the rest of the songs are just as good.
Got in the car with my dog, rolled down the window, and left town forever.... played this as I got on the expressway. One of the best days of my life.
How’s it going
Please send picture of dog
One of the many things I adore about PG is the fact his diction is so clear. You hear every word of the lyrics. No wonder his music connects with us.
Jamal, I've been going through a rough time lately, and I just wanted to drop a line to say that your warm and generous spirit has brought me some joy and kept me going. I appreciate you.
Gabriel has a one-of-a-kind voice. Combine that with deep-thought lyrics and it is winning, and has been for decades. Thanks for the reminder.
Have you listened to "Biki" yet? Amazing and so emotional!!
Biko
@@vickihigh5287 More than 100 times for sure.
CLASSIC .... I was born in 1950 and feel so blessed to grow up through the 50s 60s 70s and 80s ...... Just a GREAT TIME FOR MUSIC ❤
Solsbury Hill and Biko have always been two of my favorites from Gabriel. Both are just fantastic songs.
This was my late husband's favourite song. He would sing it and I will always remember the emotions he would show as he we sang along.
And yes, it was a song I shared at his celebration.

Try to get some...
Eventually...hopefully not for a long time... but eventually...you won't be able to...
This song always makes me so happy. It sounds like flying.
Yea me too
I retired 18 months ago and the last day that I drove away from work, I had this song ready to play in the car.
His voice is like warm buttercreme cookies on a brisk winter evening in front of a warm fire.
"And liberty she pirouette.
When I think that I am free"
"Solsbury Hill" is a touching song about spiritual awakening and finding oneself... and cabbages, apparently...
Obviously most of this video was done much later
It’s always about the cabbage!
My take on the cabbage is that it represents money.
The song is literally about him leaving Genesis. The first verse was when he came to the realization that he needed to leave. The 2nd verse is about him telling the band but staying to finish the tour and keeping quiet about leaving until after the tour, and the final verse refers to the last photos he took as part of the band at the Savoy Hotel where he's smiling and waving to the camera and the rest of the band weren't smiling.
he is an amazing solo artist but when he was in Genesis it was also amazing with hits like The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway, and Carpet Crawlers
@Nightwatch SEBTP is awesome
@Nightwatch I was flabbergasted that Phil's take on the Carpet Crawlers is also superb. They were sure lucky he filled in so well.
Steven I absolutely love the old Genesis when Peter Gabriel with the lead singer and Phil Collins was a drummer and I agree Lamb Lies Down and carpet crawlers are two of my favorite
Ain't she a beaute! A production masterpiece; It starts so simply and builds to a symphony !
All time favorites, will bring you to tears!
peter gabriel has so many amazing songs it's exhausting. Most are not the singles.

Agreed!! US: Blood of Eden, Washing of the Water...
There are so many songs by many artists that I wish I could get people to react to, but they only do hits.
He’s a true genius

This song makes me cry. Many a person have waited their whole lives to hear someone say "grab your things, I've come to take you home." Me too.
Of all the songs Peter Gabriel has done the one I always think about is Sledgehammer, probably because the video is so iconic.
My favorite Peter Gabriel song ❤
It's difficult to write a song with an odd time signature that feels like a standard 4/4 beat. This is one of the best.
Do you care to explain more?
The song is in 7/4.
@Billy White Jr. maybe he doesn't know what time signature is? Don't have to be an ass about it. Explain signature to him and why this song is different in said way. Or go about the rest of your life being a miserable prick.
@Billy White Jr. it obviously wasn't obvious since he asked. And how about you stop telling people what to do? Sound good? Ok.
top tune.... was living in chile for 5 years.. when i decided to come home i heard this song.. the line son grab your things am going to take you home ..made me weep.. i was 52
This song was in every commercial in the early 2000s. Such an inspiring but sad song. It is a very unique song.
I don't find it sad at all, the last line redeems it all. "You can keep my things they've come to take me home. " I'm shedding my baggage and moving on."

My personal favorite will always be "Carpet Crawlers" by him, and then this one. Then "Games without Frontiers" these songs just blow my mind. So good!
Definitely, Games Without Frontiers is awesome!
Peter Gabriel wrote songs for the heart, the feet and the mind.
You would absolutely appreciate the song and story of Steven “Biko”...very emotional!
Always loved that song. Never knew what it's particularly about but the atmosphere and the powerful yet melancholic aura always catches me.
Please do Gabriel's "Shock The Monkey" next. It is awesome!!!
You can keep my things they come to take me home! This song will always have a special place in my heart and always brings a tear to my eye.
Jamel react also to these others super hits from him : "Shock the monkey" , "Biko" , "Here comes the flood" , "Games without frontiers" & "Red Rain"
Biko is an absolutely amazing song. One of the first I ever heard of his.
This song reminds me of all the times I was there for my son as he battled his opioid addiction. Sadly he relapsed and died last February after almost six years clean and going back to college to earn two masters degrees in teaching and leaving an 11 year old daughter. I took him home more times than I can count but in the end it was one to few! I miss him so much!
If you think this song is good, wait until you hear games without frontiers or Biko
"OMG" this is so true. Sweet, sweet music!
Oh please, do Games Without Frontiers, War Without Tears.
Yes to Games Without Frontiers.
Yes...Biko. Check you his version with Playing for Change.
Biko is kind of heavy. On the lighter side 20 years ago my sister named one of her Shelties Biko.
