"Four Kinds of Horses actually began on Richard Russell’s project ‘Everything Is Recorded’. He’s a friend (and founder of XL Records) and he asked me to pop in to his studio. I came up with some chords, melodies and words on top of a groove he was working on. We tried a few things that didn't altogether work and so it laid dormant for quite a while. Then I started playing around with it again and changed the mood and the groove and something else began to emerge with a better chorus."
There were a number of things that triggered ideas for the song as it developed, including the Buddhist parable of the Four Kinds of Horses, which describes different ways a student can approach their spiritual practice. There is also a focus on “the interesting overlap of religion and peace on the one hand and violence and terrorism on the other. There was also a wonderful film by Hany Abu-Assad called ‘Paradise Now’ which shows two young men who end up being trained to become terrorists and it's a real insight into where the head goes.”
Written by Peter Gabriel and produced by Peter Gabriel and Richard Russell, Four Kinds of Horses was recorded at Real World Studios in Wiltshire, The Beehive and Copper House in London.
Continuing the theme of working with a different artist for each song release, this month’s track is accompanied by a cover image featuring the work of Cornelia Parker.
This month we have a fascinating artist, Cornelia Parker, who does some extraordinary work. When we were originally looking at the Art from Us project, I'd seen some of her stuff with exploding rooms and had been fascinated by that, so I'm really happy that she agreed to work with us on this. The photogravure technique of William Henry Fox Talbot was an inspiration for her in this piece, and some of the other glass-based images in the series. I fell in love with this particular work - it's called ‘Snap.’

You're truly a Master,an Eternal One...live long,and Prosper !...
Apart from being one of the masters of the industry, he has the most unique voice, and at 73 years of age, he still has it. Incredible 💚
Thank you, Peter Gabriel, for all you've done for music and humanitarianism.
It is so awesome to be able to go to show of an icon playing new material and not just the old hits. This is what music creation is all about and few established musicians have the courage and the dedication to do it.
8 days until you and your mates embark on the next adventure of your lives. I hope all your travels are fair and the venues full of life. Look forward to singing with you in Ottawa this September.
I just can't say how much I love and adore you...as a person, a musician and just fricken being who YOU are.
In '72 I've heard Peter for the first time and I almost never stopped. Magical!
Indeed Mr Gabriel. Indeed. Deep bows to you and your entire creative crew.
Thank you for always continuing to grow as an artist never resting on your laurels and always finding new ways to express yourself as a fan we always appreciate it you've been doing it since the sixties and it's amazing that you're still growing and changing and evolving and we thank you
Dark Side mix of this is my absolute favorite track on i/o. The sheer amount of sound. Production is out of this world.
This song and the music has a MIAMI VICE feel to it
I listen you and I'm getting emotional with your sensitivity with what is going on in the world...wish I could have the power to make changes...
Came here for some insight into the new track and got a full blown sneak peek of the visuals for his new tour! Could not possibly be more excited. Thank you Peter for continuing to put so much positivity and great art into the universe.
