A perfect mix of 7/4 and 4/4 rhythm. Difficult to play, extremely creative to write it. A huge compliment to all musicians, and the biggest praise goes to Peter. One of my all-time favorites.

@marshallirving1465 Месяц назад

I remember climbing Solsbury Hill above Batheaston. I was 8 years old in 1975 and it was a special place then. I was sent to boarding school locally at 7 years old and this was a place to escape when on half term break. I'll soon be home' means a lot.

@RastaSaiyaman 3 года назад

In "the musical box" documentary about Genesis, Peter Gabriel said that he was happy and relieved when he heard the "A trick of the tail" album, as it it showed that the band would be perfectly capable of continuing without him and that Phil was doing a STELLAR job singing. Which is why this song has that lyric of "Today I don't need a replacement, I told them what the smile on my face meant!" It was a big thumbs up to his former band mates "Well done chaps!"

@jlwilder8436 3 года назад

Not quite. When he wrote this... Solsbury Hill is an intense, brutally honest and angry song -that's what's so cool about it And the line you just mentioned (at the time that he wrote it) was actually more of a "f*** you" -to his (former) band mates AND anyone saying he couldn't be (what he'd be) without Genesis. He couldn't (not even possibly) sing this song in the last 30 + years the way he wrote it, because he did great (solo) and got over any/all of the stuff he was writing about here. I love how (obviously on the album, not live so much) each verse gets angrier; those feelings are so many decades behind him that this song for a LONG time has been more if a happy/sing-a-long. If there was a "well done mates" it came much later.

@chrisjohnson9789 3 года назад

Flip sides of the same coin, perhaps.

@RastaSaiyaman 2 года назад

@@jlwilder8436 The angry side of the song was directed to the music critics who wrote him off as a traitor and saboteur. That he had no squabble with his former band mates was proven when Phil Played on "Peter Gabriel III" and how Tony and Mike have since told how Peter showed up at the "A trick of the tail" sessions just to say hello and hear how things were going. As I said before, Peter found the stuff they came up with really good.

@jlwilder8436 2 года назад

@@RastaSaiyaman that makes good enough sense to me. I don't know why (over half a year ago) I seemed to make it sound like it was aimed at his former band. Maybe because, in my head, reflecting on the contrast between Peter's unique solo work, and (Phil-led) Genesis' very pop centric stuff that followed, it almost seemed like there had to be some tension in their split... I'm just glad they did split, though, because it seems like they were both best at what they did post Peter's Genesis.

@trizvanov 2 года назад

@@jlwilder8436 That's a complete and utter rubbish. He always stayed close to his former band mates (they were friends since post high school days) and this most definitely was not a FU to them. The complete exhaustion from the touring of 1975 and then the difficult birth of his daughter is what was the main cause of him going solo. The lyrics are more about his own doubts about surviving his life outside of the old band. Nothing to do with his old mates. This is like with The Beatles, people come up with all sorts of crazy stories, when in fact the real life is far less dramatic.

I like how youre speaking to the imaginary crowd first and then switch to speaking to Peter Gabriel as if hes reading himself. Funny. Dunno if you noticed but the healing properties of music arent unique to just one artist. If hes like a priest then all musicians are like priests. Except priests dont heal anyone, just fiddle with kids but I get your meaning.
