    Biko is not a song, it's an international anthem against racism. That unite us.

    I saw Peter Gabriel in 1985 on his tour following the release of his 4th album. The last song he sang was "Biko". When the lights went up, no one left the theatre...just a sea of flames from lighters. Incredible experience. One of a kind.

      Most likely it was the "So" tour. If it was the 4th album that would be 1982/83

    This song always reminds me of where we come from as blacks. I am happy generations to come will know that the freedom of South Africa was received at a cost. I am a South Africa. I salute those who caught for the democracy. The fight is not over!

    We need this song in 2022 as much as we needed it when Peter wrote it. As many western democracies shift to the extreme right and strip away human rights, the life and spirit of Stephen Biko must inspire us all to fight injustice & stand up for those who cannot.

      September '77
      Port Elizabeth - Sonnenschein
      In sechs-eins-neun endlich ruhe
      Nur ein stühl ging aus dem leim
      Oh Biko, Biko, because Biko
      Oh Biko, Biko, because Biko
      Yehla moja, yehla moja
      - Er ist tot
      Er ist tot
      Du löscht gerade noch eine Kerze
      Doch nicht ein grosses Feuer
      Springt die flamme einem über
      Treibt der wind sie immer höher
      Oh Biko, Biko, because Biko
      Oh Biko, Biko, because Biko
      Yehla moja, yehla moja
      - Er ist tot
      Er ist tot
      Die lange nacht ist viel zu heiss
      Ich träum nur noch in rot
      Die welt da draussen ist schwarz-weiss
      Nur eine Farbe tot
      Oh Biko, Biko, because Biko
      Oh Biko, Biko, because Biko
      Yehla moja, yehla moja
      - Er ist tot
      Er ist tot
      Und alle, alle seh'n euch jetzt
      Seh'n euch jetzt seh'n euch jetzt
      Sie sind da
      Sie sind da

    This video doesn’t even show in the slightest what it feels like to experience this song live. I saw Peter Gabriel in Berlin open air last year and I still get the chills when I think about it. The light makes it feel like you’re standing in front of a burning building with thousands of people protesting, chanting and punching their fists in the air for peace.

    I saw this performed at the Human Rights Now concert in 1998, Amnesty Int' celebrating the Declaration of Human Rights. Apartheid was still in place and the audience response for this song was huge and emotional, but today we still need this, still need reminding that all lives matter, especially the historically oppressed. It's not good enough to say everyone's now equal when any population still live in poverty under consistent pervasive discrimination.
