- Peter Gabriel,performing "Biko",with Ugandan musician Geoffrey Oryema at the Nelson Mandela:An International tribute to free South Africa,on 16.4.1990.
At Wembley stadium,London.
Followed by a montage of all the artists that performed at Wembley stadium,and closing credits,of the concert.
A bird born in the cage will think flying is a disease. This is the message I feel every time I listen to the song. I was born in a comunist country, another kind of cage.
this song is also for your support; as PG says: "to all those who are oppressed, to all prisoners of conscience"
I was there - what an experience. Still have the ticket and the magazine handed out at the stadium. The concert was incredible, Nelson Mandela was even better. A day I will never forget.
Me too... I was 18 yrs old. Emotional day... and one of the best!
Me too. Right up there with awesome memories ❤️❤️
Beautiful!!!!
Remember what Nelson Mandela said. "South Africa will never be FREE until Palestine is free"...✌🇵🇸
This version of BIKO is totally awesome I think that Geoffrey Oryema does an excellent job on the background.
Some of the best moments of my life. Chanting in unison with 30,000 of my friends, brothers and sisters until tears poured out of our eyes. A shared human experience unlike any other. Peter Gabriel continually proves, over 4 decades.....the world can be a better place. I Love the man !!!!
Doesn't matter how many versions of this song I have heard I just can never get tired of it.
And still, every time I cry.
Me too! 👏👏👏
I was there. A memory I will never forget. Gives me goosebumps every time I watch it on UA-cam. An excellent way to end the concert. The pan of the crowd makes me proud that I was there. Peter Gabriel PHENOMENAL song 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
❤
Por una Sudáfrica libre! Por un mundo libre de odio, racismo, discriminación y violencia. Por un mundo en paz y libertad.
We need this type of inspiration continuously, because the people of the world continues to suffer injustices.
This revolt cames from the heart, all together.
Wonderful,beautiful souls, what light they have generated.
What a BEAUTIFUL way to sing BIKO!!! and look at all the people wanting to change the world to make it a better place to live. NOW 2016 BRETIX!!! what happen? did MAN LOSE FAITH!!! OR DID FEAR TAKE OVER?
"For the great man himself, Nelson Mandela" may he rest in peace
I think that Peter Gabriel and Geoffrey Oryema nake a great team on this video . Especially when Geoffrey Oryema himself does the clicking in the background it is awesome.
I absolutely love the energy this video evokes.
this is probably the best live Version of this track.
Yes, i agree. The vibrations are just to be revolted by this jail for the expression.
It is the best version of this track period! :)
So when is he making a song about those who are still struggling today who've been struggling through the whole apartheid and having it just continue because the ruling party just cares about lining its own pockets of themselves and their friends and family and stays there with all their lies they give out to their voters who are mostly poor and the majority of the country
I doubt it is/was Peter's job to oversee the country and get involved in everything for the rest of his life, like a politician. There's a new generation now and one of them should take up the cause if they feel driven to do so. Obviously, the Apartheid regime had to go, the whole planet felt strongly about that and us who did so back then were happy & proud to see its demise and Mandela's release from prison. Everything after is a new & different chapter.
Has anyone ever seen "Cry Freedom" The Steven Biko Story?? (I think that is what it is called,...) Amazing film for anyone who wants to know more about this human rights activist/martyr,... Very sad. Very humbling,...
Denzel doing justice to a great man, he excels at that
Yes. was just thinking of watching it again tonight 👍🏽👍🏽
Many versions of this song, this is one of the best. Sorry to say, south africa has become a shit hole country, to much corruption, huge unemployment and issues.
@ga55fish
My pleasure.
Shame on me,for forgetting to include Geoffrey Oryema's name [Ugandan musician]
Peter Gabriel,does introduce him,in the beginning of the video,but it is difficult to hear.
I read this book (Biko) as a kid, I received it from the portible library when I was 10 and knew nothing aboot the real story, then learned and am thrilled/amazed when I see this. I did see the SO tour and loved it...
Titanic version of an even bigger song. This song alone made PG one of the most important artists of the last 60 years.
@AmaRJust
Lucky you!
Hope it brought back some fantastic memories.
It truly was a moment when music unified,enlightened,and brought about a positive change.
Yes it is great memories of changing the world and making it a better place for everyone. Today not so much!!! everything is out of controle, SAD!!! THAT MAN HAS LOST FAITH!!! IN EACH OTHER, I CRY FOR THE CHILDREN OF TOMORROW :(
I'm in tears... We haven't moved much further on.
Reconciliation should never have extended to allowing those who murdered Steve Biko to escape justice and accountability
