      I wish I understood. Every single note of every single Gabriel song I've ever heard is predictable and bland to me. The lyrics are even worse.

      @dig1272 Рік тому +12

      ​​@@blackmore4I've always focused more on what I feel when I listen to Peter Gabriel, rather than trying to make out every lyric. When I listen to him, I feel he takes us deep, almost into a hypnosis if we surrender. And it's always about love and peace and unity and things like that. ❤ But that's just my opinion. He was a great match slash collaboration with Kate Bush.

I learned to have patience and wait for that union. My wife eventually came along and six years and two kids later, I have an amazing family. Beyond anything I could imagine.

      Seems like,
      It’s saying beside the blood of Christ as exalted and holy lies the simple underpinning’s of humanity, our blood, that is of humans, who were originally born in Eden, that, (Biblically speaking), the 2 genders of “woman” and “man”, and within humanities blood, everyone born, is part of an unending cycle, a cycle that goes on and on through time, that humanity gives birth to itself? It seems to denote an equality by the visual aspects. Tho, he ALWAYS shows up in a suit. That his symbolic standard. The way Sinead O’Connor is wearing red, is also interesting. Red is a color used in wedding dresses in other countries with holy ways. In this instance blood is life, blood is red. So the marriage of woman and man, giving birth to themselves is closer to red: the blood, the life, the humanity. Which is a *contrast* to the than a celebration of the innocence
      I tend to appreciate when people take biblical concepts and remove the fear, hatred, epic, punishment, overly pious ways of being, and, instead of sin, perhaps it’s a cycle?
      Forgive me on this if I’ve got it wrong, I like to explore symbolism, but that’s what it SEEMS to be saying.

Some may say she is at peace but her music certainly was her source for healing and i believe with more love she could have been still singing with us now. I wish I could have been there for her. Life is such a challenging endeavor but truly a gift. I am so so grateful she shared her gifts with us.

      Those were the days when music meant something beyond making money. Today, when musicians are forced to make their art available more or less for free (at least hardly any musician earns anything from the sale of recordings), music simply no longer has any meaning. Today anyone with a PC or Mac can create their "own" music from terabytes of sample libraries, so that no one has to learn a musical instrument anymore. And young, new artists no longer have the opportunity to find an audience with the vast array of sampling and sequencing mash on offer. The digitization of music has made it possible to make the production of professional sounds accessible to anyone who has a computer, but ultimately it has lost its value and meaning ...

      His unique voice, the lyrics and the music make him a nail in a haystack.
      His songs bring so much good memories at a certain time of my life when living in beautiful Vancouver thirty years ago. I still get goosebumps listening his songs.
      Unfortunately calling the so called 90% of today’s singers and bands “Artist and Musician“, not only is laughable but also telling us where music industry and those who are in charge of it is heading to.
      God Bless Peter Gabriel.

    I caught sight of my reflection
    I caught it in the window
    I saw the darkness in my heart
    I saw the signs of my undoing
    They had been there from the start
    And the darkness still has work to do
    The knotted chord's untying
    The heated and the holy
    Oh they're sitting there on high
    So secure, with everything they're buying
    In the blood of Eden
    Lie the woman and the man
    With the man in the woman
    And the woman in the man
    In the blood of Eden
    Lie the woman and the man
    We wanted the union
    Oh the union of the woman
    The woman and the man
    My grip is surely slipping
    I think I've lost my hold
    Yes I think I've lost my hold
    I cannot get insurance anymore
    They don't take credit, only gold
    Is that a dagger or a crucifix I see?
    You hold so tightly in your hand
    And all the while, the distance grows between you and me
    I do not understand
    In the blood of Eden
    Lie the woman and the man
    With the man in the woman
    And the woman in the man
    In the blood of Eden
    Lie the woman and the man
    We wanted the union
    Oh the union of the woman
    The woman and the man
    At my request you take me in
    In that tenderness, I am floating away
    No certainty, nothing to rely on
    Holding still for a moment
    What a moment this is
    A moment of forgetting
    A moment of bliss, oh
    I can hear the distant thunder
    Of a million unheard souls
    Of a million unheard souls
    Watch each one reach for creature comfort
    For the filling of their holes
    In the blood of Eden
    Lie the woman and the man
    With the man in the woman
    And the woman in the man
    In the blood of Eden
    Lie the woman and the man
    We wanted the union of the woman and the man
    Blood of Eden comes running through me
    Running through my veins
    Blood of Eden comes rushing through me
    'Til I'm sure that there's none that remains
    Blood of Eden comes running through me
    Running through my veins
    Blood of Eden comes rushing through me
    'Til I'm sure that there's none that remains
    In the blood of Eden
    We have done everything we can
    In the blood of Eden
    So we end as we bagan
    With the man in the woman
    And the woman in the man
    It was all for the union
    Oh the union of the woman
    The woman and the man
    Oh, thank you
    I was gonna guess that but-
    And it's gonna be waiting in the album a little longer
    Because this one is actually called Red Rain

Yet, as our bodies began to decline and age... it is the Blood of Eden that we got to live in... and that is the meaning of it all. The touching of eternity as our lives wind down... the promise, the blessing and the wonder shall carry on. What a ride!
