Peter Gabriel has a very fitting surname. He has a voice like an angel. One of the greatest male voices of all time in my opinion….and he gives a fine lesson in how to hug your woman!
On a darker note however, his wife allegedly said "I saw an article in a newspaper about a woman who jumped out of a huge block of flats with her child and killed herself. I gave it to Peter and it was the original inspiration and he was heartbroken to read it. However his lyrics are always multi-layered with many different influences."
I first remember him from his days with early Genesis and after leaving he went on to produce a lot of fine music. I have always loved Kate Bush and this is a favourite of mine from his 1986 Album “So” which demonstrates both of their singing talents.
