Peter Gabriel - i/o (Bright-Side Mix) (Official Music Video)

- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 7 ก.ย. 2024
- i/o, the title track and fourth song to be released from the forthcoming album by Peter Gabriel. This is the Bright-Side Mix by Mark 'Spike' Stent. Originally released on the full moon, 6 April 2023.
The album i/o is released on 1 December, 2023. Pre-order now: lnk.to/PG21
‘After a years-worth of full moon releases, I’m very happy to see all these new songs back together on the good ship i/o and ready for their journey out into the world.’ - Peter Gabriel
Video by Sagans.
Written and produced by Peter Gabriel, i/o was primarily recorded at Real World Studios in Wiltshire and The Beehive in London. The song features Soweto Gospel Choir, who were recorded at High Seas Studios in South Africa.
'This month the song is i/o and i/o means input / output. You see it on the back of a lot of electrical equipment and it just triggered some ideas about the stuff we put in and pull out of ourselves, in physical and non-physical ways. That was the starting point of this idea and then trying to talk about the interconnectedness of everything. The older I get, I probably don't get any smarter, but I have learned a few things and it makes a lot of sense to me that we are not these independent islands that we like to think we are, that we are part of a whole. If we can see ourselves as better connected, still messed up individuals, but as part of a whole, then maybe there's something to learn?'
i/o as a potential album title has long-been known within fan circles, and is now the name of the current project, the album and the forthcoming tour, but as Gabriel says, 'It's been around for a long time as a title for this project. I always knew I was going to write a song called i/o, but the title came first.'
i/o sees Gabriel working again with Soweto Gospel Choir, who previously featured on the song Down to Earth that was recorded for the film Wall-E and who he’s also performed with twice in South Africa at events for Nelson Mandela and Bishop Desmond Tutu;
'I didn't always hear the Soweto Gospel Choir on this song, but every time I've worked with them it's always been fantastic. You can just feel the energy whenever they sing on this record, and on the song I did for Wall-E, it's just joyous. It hits you in the heart.'
Continuing the theme of working with a different artist for each song release, this month’s track is accompanied by a cover image featuring the work of Olafur Eliasson, who is someone Gabriel first met when the artist was launching his Little Sun Project.
Olafur Eliasson is an extraordinary artist who, in many ways I think, is the king of light. A lot of his work is to do with light and with nature and I really felt that for this song in particular he would be absolutely perfect and I was delighted when he said, yes. This piece is called Colour experiment no. 114, from 2022.
'I think Olafur is a mixture between artist, scientist and magician. He always has a mission and something to say about the world and nature and light and our experience of it and that helps us to reconsider how we interact with our environment.'
Just like the previous full moon releases, i/o will come with differing mix approaches from Mark ‘Spike’ Stent (Bright-Side Mix), released here, and Tchad Blake (Dark-Side Mix) and Hans-Martin Buff’s Atmos mix (In-Side Mix), whose versions are released later in the month.
I'm so damn glad he's made a new record, and he still sounds as great as when I discovered him more than three decades ago.
I love you peter
I was a huge Gabriel fan for years, started as a genesis fan. I recently saw him in Dublin live and was apprehensive about his new stuff, I knew I would like it but I thought I wouldn't appreciate it as much not knowing it. but it literally grabbed me from the start. there was a newness and a familiarity at the same time. it left me wanting more.
lucky me; know him for 50 years
i'm too
@@pgoucha1
same emotions for this album as for the first time i listen peter gabriel in a live concert in florence about 40 years ago
I am so grateful that Gabriel hasn't lost it. Far from. His singing is still world class, and his writing seems even more insightful. Love that guy. Genius.
This song unexpectedly brought tears to my eyes. I was never the biggest Peter Gabriel fan, but leave it to this man to write a song that captures the essence of the meaning of Life in less than 4 minutes. Life-affirming and pretty spectacular. ❤💯
it made me tear up too...
Yep
Me too 😊
I had the same reaction, proceeded to listen back a few more times. I love this!
Buddha
So far this is my favourite song off the new album! I’ve listened to it on repeat more times than I remember! 🙌🏼👏🏻
Niesamowicie piękne:) For me - harmony lake red rain!!!
I love the new album and, after 50 years of following PG’s musical journey, finally got to see him live in June. Just an amazingly talented man who surrounds himself with equally talented musicians. 😊
Oh wow that's a trip isnt it?!
Amazing artist. I just saw him in philly.... 27th time
Same. Been a fan since I was a young teen. Saw Genesis in Philly in 1980 but that was Phil leading Daryl Stuermer et al. Then I JUST GOT to see/hear Peter Gabriel last fall, and it was the best concert since my first, Yes, 1977.
Peter gabriel, one of the greatest musicians of all time, love you
I've been listening to this masterpiece of a song a lot since it's release - what a joy to find such an incredible video to go along with it - thank you Peter Gabriel!
It is shiny and new but still undoubtedly PG. It covers so much ground. What a soundsmith. He does so well with Dark and light. Plus the Harlem Globetrotters of musicians. I love it all.
Beautiful. Lifetime after lifetime after lifetime. We are all one. Fractals of Source. 🙏💕
He really is an amazing talent, with all of the nonsense that passes for music today it's great to hear a true musician. I really hope young people can hear this and be inspired
All the lyrics on this album sound like actual poetry, which seems somewhat rare these days, not to mention just how good the production is. Absolutely beautiful work.
So much special about being a Peter Gabriel fan.A Most Enlightening entertaining talented songwriter musician performer and an Exceptional Human Being. Thanks for a Lifetime of Great music great performance and great insight
Згоден з Вами.
That he is
When time's getting hard, we have the fortune to have mister Gabriel. Thank you for helping me so much with your music.
A Beautiful Day
Just like the UP album, this new release has many unexpected gems. Really give credit to PG for continually challenging himself musically and creatively.
1:10 Ci sono voluti 20 anni di attesa dal suo ultimo album in studio. Ne è valsa la pena! Finalmente un album di un artista vero. 12 perle , anzi 36....che vanno ad irrorare finalmente il deserto della musica contemporanea, piena di giocolieri del PC e dell'autotune improvvisati di dubbio gusto e dalla caratura artistica inesistente
Little did Peter know how important this song is at this very moment in time to get out to the collective - we are all connected! That is the message that will move us out of the chaos and path of destruction humanity is on. Thank you for sharing your gifts and your enlightened awareness in such a creative, collaborative way.
THIS WAS SO GOOD LIVE!!!! Thank you Peter & the entire crew!!
You are so lucky living where you do, here in Australia we see so few. 😞
@@noelmurray1do you feel that you are Out of The world? You not.
We saw him in Cleveland a few weeks back.... what an amazing performance by all.
His voice is still incredible and was worth every penny spent! This new album is another masterpiece by a musical genius!
Thank you Peter, for more great music!
Yes I agree. I saw him in Glasgow Scotland and thought his voice is still so amazing.
It helps that he sounded old already even when he was 19 lol
Genius, just as always. So glad to be living in the same era as this guy :)
Fortunate we are for artists like you. Great to have you a part of everything too☮🐉👁
Wow, captures the song perfectly! Although, I do wish Peter was in his music videos more nowadays.
Hi, there are no less than 3(!) “unofficial” i/o videos produced by very talented fans, and you can see PG images in them!
This was so good with the trumpet on the tour. Highlight of the show.
You are so lucky living where you do, here in Australia we see so few. 😞
I’m 28.. but my whole life has been musically dominated by Mr. Gabriel.. I got the INCREDIBLE opportunity to see him in Chicago in September this year with my parents 🥹I listen to i/o on a daily basis 🫶🏻💕
Well, there is hope then
I'm 51 - veritatis splendor. Well done!
Peter is great man. From 30 years. For Brian Cox too. Physical, Newton and Einstein world for us.
Song is amazing, album is amazing. What a legend.
One of the best videos I've ever seen and one of the best song from PG. A great visual idea! A real masterpiece of music and images.
Grazie Peter per l'emozione ❤ siamo tutto uno
I’m so attached to this song, it’s atmosphere makes me believe in myself every time I listen to it
Bright Side 😊thnx for show in Poland /cracow
Stuff goin out/stuff goin in. True enough.
This consciousness of the life that surrounds us and in which you are delicately immersing yourself is the fundamental step in life for the great artist that you are.
You had to make this connection.
Ti voglio bene Peter!!!!
Notice the beginning’s percussion, sounds like a ticking clock. Can’t say enough good stuff about this song. The simplicity and beautiful complexity with a lesson about life…superb.
Heard it first in the concert I saw, been hooked on it ever since!
same!
You are so lucky living where you do, here in Australia we see so few. 😞
i know. it seems you often get the cold shoulder, and it stinks, i'm sorry.@@noelmurray1
Fabulous! Peter, like a fine wine you have gotten better with age! It was so awesome to see you and the band last week! Every minute was magic! Love you!
He used to mold his voice to fit the song. He has learned over the years to mold the song to fit his voice. In my opinion, this is the better way to do it and makes his voice shine.
this man is a musical genius, he never fails to astound me
best song ever.
you're still amazing. I had such a great time at your show the other night (I only cried 3 or 4 times, haha)! The first CD I ever bought (3rd grade) was "So". Keep doing what you're doing, Peter.
Brilliant new song. He never let's us down
La sua musica pulita e spettacolare e i suoi testi ti portano a vedere oltre il velo di Maya.Solo un genio come Peter può...❤
A giant is entertaining the whole world with his poem, music and spesial woice. Thanks Peter❤
This is one of my favs from the new album. I also love Road to Joy
It makes such a difference seeing these performed on concert.
You are so lucky living where you do, here in Australia we see so few. 😞
@@noelmurray1 you are so right,we do miss a lot,but we have been given this opportunity and I have enjoyed the waiting for the next track,hope you did too🌝
Da 40 anni mi emozioni ❤ grande Peter
🪽👊🦚🕊️⚖️I’m so grateful for your voice Peter…it’s carried me
È il mio cantante preferito, ho tutta la discografia.
That voice…
Just to hear it again with new stuff (going in) is heartwarming.
Hasn't lost his magic
Enjoyed the song 💚 just a part of everything love you all 💚💚
Yes,ditto.
Peter Gabriel :
Always Great.
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ PETER you are apart of everything 😂😅😅😅I love you your my favourite shhhhhh 😂 you are😅
Heard him in concert - it was a great show... This is a great song
You are so lucky living where you do, here in Australia we see so few. 😞
Love this tune, love the album. Deep bow. Keep bringing the light within the music. May it be ever so.
Welcome back, Mr. Gabriel. 👍
Meravigliosa … fa bene allo spirito! Da sempre e per sempre nel mio cuore Peter Gabriel!💖
God I love that you are again creating PG. Your new material is opening my heart and mind with substance that comes as wisdom with time. The world needs this. I hope it's as healing for you to create as it is for me to hear ... I have missed hearing that beautiful upper range...! T Y.
Saw him last year in Manchester … a lifetimes ambition. I loved all of it … but this esp reasonated.
MAGICO , INTENSO, POETICO, PETER GABRIEL FUORI CLASSE !!!
Peter's music has always filled me with both joy and sorrow. The emotions he can induce with music is brilliant. I can listen to wallflower..don't give up...Biko...and tear up. You, Peter are a master artist and I hope the King knights you soon..Sir Peter!
Ah yes … wallflower amazing ! So thrilled with this new album. Very real , very emotional and reflective. Brilliant. As someone eloquently said- PG is like a fine wine. Truly talented and his team of musos - he has a real ear for sound.
I hope this doesn't come across as hyperbole, or blind fandom, but this has to be one of the most important and most beautiful songs ever written. Everything's connected, no one's alone, everything receives and everything gives(, and thus none of us is a god, no one's above and separate to anyone else, we're all connected to and part of a wider community, though that's just my own extrapolation from these lyrics).
I feel like this song will matter for decades and decades to come, maybe forever. It's so rare to get to hear a song like that, especially one that speaks both so directly and so poetically, and I'm eternally grateful.
I'm so glad his new album was released. PG, you're the greatest.❤🥹
No words. Thanks Peter
Awesome as usual
Bellissimu presente a sa Sardigna. Mi piaghet meda qustu Ajo Ajo. Gratzias tantas❤
Simpatico il tuo commento ma sarà difficile tradurlo, a parte noi Sardi...😢😊
La voix est intacte, les sonorités musicales originales et ouvertes sur le monde..Un excellent album..Un grand artiste
Beautiful Song the Lyrics are saying it all
Stupenda!
BRILLIANT, YES YES YES !
Beautiful.
Bravo
This song grabs me by the guts. It makes me cry, and I like that.
What a beautiful man❤
Quel magnifique druide d'aujourd'hui... toujours un plaisir et un vertige des profondeurs en l'écoutant !
Assolutamente fantastico. Grande Peter.
Wonderful as always Peter. I have ordered the new album i/o on Blu-Ray with the Dolby Atmos Audio Inside Mix, with the added 2 CDs with the Dark-Side Mixes on one CD and the Bright-Side mixes on the other CD. I am looking so forward to this album. Brilliant work! I love every song that i have heard from it.
Anch'io 😊🇮🇪
❤ This is what we all need rn Gabriel is fkn master as always!
I'm just a part of everything
I stand on two legs and I learn to sing
It's not what was said
It's not what I heard
I walk with my dog and I whistle with the bird
Stuff coming out, stuff going in
I'm just a part of everything
Stuff coming out, stuff going in
I'm just a part of everything
So we think we really live apart
Because we've got two legs, a brain, and a heart
We all belong to everything
To the octopus' suckers and the buzzard's wing
To the elephant's trunk and buzzing bee's sting
Stuff coming out, stuff going in
I'm just a part of everything
I'm just a part of everything
i/o, i/o
Coming out, I'm going in
i/o, i/o
I'm just a part of everything
I learn like a baby, I learn like a seed
Spread out my tubers wherever I need
I find any way to attach and connect
And I run like water, no cause or effect
Stuff coming out, stuff going in
I'm just a part of everything
Stuff coming out, stuff going in
I'm just a part of everything
When the panting is over and the warmth has run out
Love will be flowing, I have no doubt
With the vehicle in neutral and the ground to be faced
I'll be all laid to rest in my proper place
Into the roots of an old oak tree
Where life can move freely in and out of me
Stuff coming out, stuff going in
I'm just a part of everything
i/o, i/o
Coming out, I'm going in
i/o, i/o
I'm just a part of everything
i/o, i/o
Coming out, I'm going in
i/o, i/o
I'm just a part of everythin
No words, man...
A lovely song 😍
The Best... ♪♪♪♪
Since of the begin of times: Peter is Peter!!
So perfectly true! Got to see this concert, as I've been a fan for awhile, and he still hits the nail on the head every time (and smacks deep into the heart as well).❤
Fantastico Peter !!!
We had the opportunity to be in his last show in Los Angeles. It was done at the Kia Forum. Awesome show as always. We gave been a fan of Peter Gabriel for decades. He still performs great. Last show that i went to see him was in The Santa Barbara Bowl.
Distinctly Gabriel, like nothing I’ve heard before..
Bravo, Sir!
So much better ... with age. Can we all be??
Beautiful song… and did you notice him singing „bam bam“ in the background? Love it! 🥰
💕PG! 👍
Maestro👍
Quite psychedelic! Really love it. Enjoyed these visuals during the live shows.
He knows how use visual 🥳
Peter , tu me fait pleurer … et ça me fait du bien ♥️♥️♥️
I love the song and the video. I truly admire the artists who created them. There's so much inspiration in this video.
Yes.. in did
A grate musician that loves terrorists
Congratulations Peter Gabriel & all your fantastic-wonderful-inspiring collaborators ! Sounds SO good. Félicitations !!!
Это прекрасно. Я ждал нового альбома 20 лет. Спасибо!
Аналогично!
Me also! Аналогично!
10,000 things. I/O, we live in a range of opposites and we are each other. I am you Peter, you are me, in your eyes, my eyes. Thank you for helping me understand and balance some of the most difficult parts of life.
Peter Gabriel still breaking hearts out here. I love you.
I can't decide if I like the music or the video better, both are amazing 💚
As a science nerd, I love the vid; as a PG fan, music and lyrics are so spot on for what we've come to love from this amazing human being!
Best song on the album and now with a music video, can't get enough of it
I heard this song a bit before I saw the concert, and it's been happily stuck in my head for several months now - such great lyrics for connecting us together, as world beings, as well as making one's peace with our own mortality. After hearing this song, I'm much less fearful of dying and much more hopeful while living...
Simplesmente brilhante!!!!
(Simply brilliant!!!!)

I'm from Israel. We're trying to recover, somehow, 14 days after Hamas performed its massacre - killing our babies and raping our women. If only human race will understand we're all one. Each of us is only a small part of everything. Maybe this understanding will make us communicate instead of destroy...
Prayers and thoughts are with you. Great music and meaningful lyrics can be a great unifier - especially when it’s by Peter Gabriel.
I think it is our only way forward!
Amazing show in Denver. Peter is truly a generational artist❤❤
