Im just in awe of this man.,not only is he one very talented man.,he’s got such a gentle caring nature about him..he’s just a wonderful human being.,we need more of him in this world…😁
So well said!!! Absolutely in awe- I couldn't have thought of anything better than that to say. Ya, what a man, what a heart, and good lord what an amazing talent!
in 1993 in Rome Peter introduced his parents to the stage saying "let me introduce two people without whom we wouldn't be here" and we all immediately understood he meant his parents, two very charming lady and sir. He was very proud to share with them what he had become. Now I understand all his grieve and sufference. As usual, still a great man after all these years.
Palaghiaccio ....pessima acustica concerto e musicisti meravigliosi. Me volevo porta' a casa tony levin ... Here comes the flood al piano come closing in presenza dei genitori. Brano che utilizzerà in apertura al concerto del tour di Up come fosse una cesura
So talented, and one of the most thoughtful musicians of our time. He gets the big picture of humanity like few others and through his music shows us those principles that connect us all. Peter is one of a kind.
I was just playing "blood of Eden" on the guitar for the first time, because I finally have developed my technical ability to play guitar! I'm 64, been singing to Genesis since 1973, and finally got around to learn to play. Genesis and Peter have been my joyous ride in this world. I was thanking God just for the feat of playing BOE, and was thanking him for the amazing day I had today and then I see you here. I will play for your beautiful mum tomorrow when the day begins. Thank you Peter thank you!🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤
Peter you'll never read this comment from nowhere from Noone from nowhere. But I feel you. More so with the pain of loss. I run an parrot hospice. The love, memories and warmth in your music keeps me centered. Thank you making a song about all those animals we lost since we were little kids. I miss the warmth of being a child with my mum being alive. My dad is 92 and I'm seeing death come after my dad like a bullet in slow motion, and then soon I will be fatherless son. Stay healthy Peter, us people from the 80's need you brother. ❤
Losing your mum is the hardest loss to accept. The lucky ones have real love, from mum, and the pain of her loss never goes, Making music is healing, I'm so happy to see you again Peter, welcome back. We missed you xx
Peter Gabriel has brought me, my family (including great grand children who love him as much as I do. His music has brought much joy, happiness & sadness that we can all learn & grow from!! Thank you so much Peter!!
Peter I love your music I saw you in Washington DC in September I would love to meet you in person but it will never happen you are a very very wonderful man I absolutely love some of your songs they are so good don't give up help me many years ago through a divorce you probably saved my life I listen to that song over and over as far as some of your upbeat rock and roll kicks ass very talented very intelligent very deep music I love it thank you so much
What a gentleman , talent in abundance & genuinely beautiful soul ❤ your music 🎶 thank you for such amazing memories that came with it , love Fiona in Scotland 🏴 x
This song makes me teary eyed every time I play it and I do play i/o an awful lot because it is such a fantastic album - was an amazing concert too. Love Peter's work for decades.
The first time I heard Father Son, was on Jools Holland's show in 2000 I think it was. At the time I thought it was a lovely song, but I knew that one day it would hurt me. When my dad passed away, I couldn't listen to the song, but did eventually when I thought I was ready. It broke my heart, and I was in floods of tears. This year, I lost my mum, and I guess 'And Still' will be the same therapy for me. I don't know how Peter manages to perform these songs without breaking down; I guess he has learned to switch off and become the artist, not the son, for the performance xxx
Thank you Peter, sharing your reflection of the loss of your folks has a gentleness that slows me to notice what we hold in common and what unique value we hold for those we love. Keep working hard it is much appreciated. ❤❤
Just such a creative ever evolving Artist and Human being .. not many musicians bring up the hairs on my neck and take me on the journey to the depts of my unexpressed feelings arising back to air and enlightenment to what I would prefer to be in this world of the distractions that can consume us into confusion .. keep music live .. and alive , Thank you to all creatives that never faltered When some of us were falling and doubting our very free spirt .. always loved Peters lyrics .. and THAT voice .. say no more . 😊
Both of my parents died in 2008 and I still grieve them, terribly. I wish I had some kind of talent that I could use to immortalise them for the rest of the world to love and revere and much as I did. I feel your pain and loss, Mr. Gabriel, and thank you for the countless hours of joy you’ve given the world with your music 🙏🏼❤️
I lost my mother 18 years ago; the loss still stings. When you performed And Still in Chicago, I was absolutely awash in tears. Time will tell, but it may well be my favorite song from i/o. Thank you for this song, and for the many decades of music.
I cry every time I hear Father, Son. Peter's an amazing person and artist, probably my favorite musician. It was the thrill of a lifetime to finally see him perform in Austin on the i/o tour.
I love the song PG wrote for his dad and look forward to one for his mother. I lost mine in 1997🌹He's a beautiful soul, man, humanitarian and father himself🧡🧡🧡
Still one of my all time favorite artists. My wife and I lost all our parents over the last 3 years, so I can relate to the pause on writing a song for one of them. I know they're all in a better place - I know that - but that doesn't stop a person from missing them sometimes.
I "lost" (temporarily) my mum this year, Feb. 1. I'm sure PG's song will be an immense gift to us all, but esp. to me. And right on time, as he always has been.
the imagery is deeply felt , the love and gentleness given to you as a child from your mother is beautiful I imagined the most loving feelings while pregnant with my child mostly from songs . I am so grateful for music ,the songwriter the artist and the poet without their expressions and ones like this I would know so little of the subject and would have very little to share thank you Mr Gabriel
First of all, respect to your family. Saw you first time out Knebworth late 70s solo, same year saw genesis with Mr Collins singing...your music is in my life, thank you.
Thank you for sharing your gift.. Your expression of what is felt by myself and so many others like me, have strengthened and simultaneously grounded and lifted me/ us… through your art you remind your listeners of the paradoxical tenacity and fragility of the human spirit… again thank you for the beautiful gift of your music❤
“ when there was a distance.” I can relate Mr. Gabriel. I speak of my mum often .. people ask when did she pass away? I say.. or a couple years ago .. which is it true, it’s been over 10. The distance . She was my constant .❤
Mr. Gabriel, you are an amazing musician & person. An animal lover also as I am being a vegetarian. My condolences in the passing of your parents who you loved dearly. Mine are also in their new journey & I miss them also. Your song "I Grieve" from your Album "Up" nailed it. Saw you in concert in Montreal, & just blown away of your talent, & have been for over 40 years. You are an incredible person, making music of deep depths, that reach us all.
He really really is a real deal and I know this for a fact because I’ve known him for 20 something years now and he’s never failed me as a human being. Just because he cares. I know nobody special but he cares about people.
I saw you in San Francisco. You played this song for your Mom. Your song is beautiful and very touching. You are truly an amazing man. Your passion about the human experiment, both good and bad, filled my heart with love and great admiration. Thank you Peter.
Knowing the story of Navy seal Michael Murphy and scrolling TikTok in the early hours a picture of him came up with this incredible and powerful music that affected me. I found out it was Peter Gabriel Heroes . What a talent.
