Mike & Ginger React to PETER GABRIEL - Games Without Frontiers 

The song refers to a tv show that was popular in the UK in the 70s called It’s A Knockout, where teams would play crazy obstacle games against each other like carrying buckets of custard across wobbly planks over a pond. Sometimes there would be an international edition where teams from European countries played against each other. This version of the show was called Jeux Sans Frontieres, which (as good Canadians you should know) is French for Games Without Frontiers.

All these years and I somehow never knew that was Kate Bush on backing vocals. Ya learn something new every day.

I grew up with Genesis, saw them live, Peter Gabriel is unique. Such an artist.

Now we are talking guys. There was a period where I played nothing but Peter Gabriel on my Walkman. Flashbacks here, from Miami Vice where Peter sings Red Rain, probably my favourite. But they are all good, hard to choose WOW guys, I wrote this before I got to the end. Then you say how you like Red Rain. It's not just me then👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻Nice to hear someone who actually listens to Peter Gabriel.

Peter gets the balance right between inventiveness and accessibility

I knew who she was in the 80s I I'm from canada because of this song its my favorite Peter Gabriel song 🎵

Thanks for the reaction to Peter Gabriel! Ever since high school, I've been a fan of his music. I'd love to see you react to some of his live performances with the New Blood Orchestra. The live version of "The Rhythm of the Heat" is a must-watch!

Thanks guy's. I loved his "Secret world tour" with Paula Cole. Magic production, with a great band.

Fantastic reaction and a great song. I know Peter Gabriel from the first albums of Genesis. So before Phil Collins became singer. Such an artist

I'm much the same: had this song stuck in my head ever since it came out. We didn't have pop radio on in the house when I was growing up, but when I started at secondary school, my parents bought me an alarm-clock-radio and that was where I first started hearing pop music. The very first track I woke up to was Ghost Town by The Specials, but Games Without Frontiers followed swiftly thereafter. In case it's not clear, the lyrics reference It's A Knockout, a UK TV show that was our version of a european show called Jeux Sans Frontieres in which teams from towns across the continent competed with each other in mind-bogglingly silly and humiliating games. It was supposed to be all fun and friendly competition (as an alternative to going to war with each other) but the irony was the people took it VERY seriously, got VERY competetive, and all the old rivalries came out. No bigger cheer from the UK crowd than when we gave the Germans a good thrashing, etc... Far and away my favorite Peter Gabriel song is Solsbury Hill. Got me through a lot of tough teenage times did that one... Another good one that he did with Kate Bush was Don't Give Up.

"Whenever I heared this songlyric,on the radio(1980),his voice had a specific antometon (almost Dr.Who robot),classic toon'tune. . .I had'nt a clue however,that this was Mr.Peter Gabriel's :5--25--2021'

This was 'way back' in my Senior year in high school. Funny how some of the 'classic' 80s music has remained relevant. And nice pick up on Kate Bush. Wow!

Adolph builds a bonfire.

I'm with Mike,I was born in '72 and first hear I loved it. Eight year olds don't listen to lyrics much though. Kate Bush was massive over here though. (Wuthering Heights.)🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

Please react to Peter Gabriel - Shock The Monkey (Live in Athens 1987) or/and Peter Gabriel - Lay Your Hands on Me (Live In Athens 1987), They are both epic!!!

I liked Mr Gabriel, bits of Genesis a lot of his early solo stuff but Peter Gabriel 4, what an album! Putting that onto the turntable was next level, still today it's an album that I don't skip tracks (And I can be very fickle and flighty with my listening). But that opener, Rhythm of the Heat 🤯 It is one of my all time favourites and needs to be played LOUD 😁

its so beautiful

Diggoing in the dirt is another classic

actually in Canada people turned me onto Kate in the late 70s with Running Up That Hill, Wutheriing Heights then later I heard Babooshka & Hounds of Love

Peter very recently released a re-recording of his song Biko, with Playing for Change (or PfC made a version of it that features Peter...). Well worth looking up, and probably worth recording a reaction. If you aren't familiar with PfC, I'd recommend starting with their very first, Stand By Me.

This is how my music journey beginns. I had No favourite musician (ok John Williams). A few Vinyls, a few CDs. Than, fresh in the radio and in MTV (you know this time they played music?) "Digging in the dirt". I bought US. I bought the old best of . And than all CDs. "Don't give Up" I bought the best of Kate Bush And than all CDs. In a Television Biographie about Peter, they talked about the old Genesis Times. I bought a old best of And then all CDs (with Peter)

Like a lot of Peter Gabriel songs from his solo career but my favorite ones are from the early Genesis era.

Peter Gabriel and Kate Bush do a great duet on ' Don't give up'.

put it on loop

Peter Gabriel 🇬🇧

Anything by Peter Gabriel is worth a listen. I'd suggest the original version of Signal to Noise with the late Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan if you have not really listened to it, The Rhythm of the Heat, or The Time of the Turning (plus the reprise) for some more really good stuff from him.

Peter recorded LP 3 and 4 in the German language. They are a bit weird. But they are also a bit weird in english, right?

do a react to Peter and Kate in Don't Give Up

Please, react to Genesis - Dance on a volcano.

Muy buena tu reacción, me gustaría que reacciones a INDIO SOLARI JI JI JI de Argentina ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-tVvTDVswTxQ.html Gracias
