I’m listening in 2024…. Love this song my cousin Julie turned me on to this song when we were kids. When we were kids I feel like we lived on sugar mountain. We were little hippies and loved life, love, rock and roll. Times have changed so much! My cousin has passed away now from cancer and she will be missed. I’m so happy I have the Neil Young memories I shared with her. When I listen she’s still here with me…THANK YOU NEIL YOUNG for allowing me to experience that ❤
I had to change one word or two in the lyrics in the mid 90's. My ex wife had put my eldest boy into foster care. As soon as I found out I drove from Hampshire to Worcestershire. Went in the door of the carers saying "son, grab your things, I've come to take you home. I did.

Wow, the symbolism is unreal. When he sings of ... "feeling part of the scenery, I walked right out of the machinery," his reason for leaving Genesis -- as soon as he says, "grab your things, I've come to take you home," he gets off the bike AND CHANGES DIRECTION -- just as he did when he left Genesis. The guy is a genius.
@Ian Stevenson it easy to put symbolism in retro watching things...but i havent heard him describe this..and i dont think its the casse... having watch all docu and interview from this guys he is pretty much in the moment and i think its just that.

I have been to hundreds of concerts in my life, over 600 actually. Ive watched countless hours on dvd and youtube. THIS moment, with these full body goosebumps, the bike, the circular stage the band skipping around, is right near the top wth all the other great moments. Very special.
I’m currently in hospital. It’s 02:30. Just woke up with this song in my head, so of course, it had to go on straight away. Superb.....👍 such a happy song....
Peter Gabriel taking the age-old question "Can you walk and chew gum at the same time" to a whole new level of "Can you sing and ride a bike at the same time". One of my favorite songs of all time presented in a whole new level of sophistication... just beautiful.
The bike is a Moulton, made in Bradford on Avon, a tiny, beautiful old town, not far from where Peter Gabriel has his recording studio in Box, Wiltshire. For that matter, not so far away from Solsbury Hill.
Wonderful performance. This was one of my elder brother's favourite songs, so we played the studio version in the church as his coffin left the building. So now the lyrics have a personal resonance to his siblings, and bring tears to our eyes when we hear it again. Quentin N Scott: 1959 - 2009 RIP.
This means *so much* to me. Complete resonance with my life. Time to let hurt and the old life go. Turn back to people who really love you. I cry every time I listen to this. Such a fabulous song and such a wonderful songwriter. Thank you Peter for everything.
Climbing up on Solsbury Hill I could see the city light Wind was blowing, time stood still Eagle flew out of the night He was something to observe Came in close, I heard a voice Standing, stretching every nerve Had to listen, had no choice I did not believe the information I just had to trust imagination My heart going boom, boom, boom "Son", he said, "grab your things, I've come to take you home" To keep in silence I resigned My friends would think I was a nut Turning water into wine Open doors would soon be shut So I went from day to day Though my life was in a rut 'Til I thought of what I'll say Which connection I should cut I was feeling part of the scenery I walked right out of the machinery My heart going boom, boom, boom "Hey", he said, "grab your things, I've come to take you home" (Hey, back home) When illusion spin her net I'm never where I want to be And liberty she pirouette When I think that I am free Watched by empty silhouettes Who close their eyes but still can see No one taught them etiquette I will show another me Today I don't need a replacement I'll show them what the smile on my face meant My heart going boom, boom, boom "Hey", I said, "you can keep my things, they've come to take me home"
Awesome, heard this song yesterday on the radio for the first time in a zillion years and spent an hour today to find the version I liked best. This is it.
This is one of the few songs in existence that can lift me up, no matter what mood I'm in. It doesn't cover it to say it makes me happy. I think it's more accurate to say it brings me joy, because to me, joy is stronger and less dependent on circumstance than happiness, and shines even in the darkest night. So thankful for Peter Gabriel and his music.
Alf Torp PG’s band is made up of the same musicians - I saw him in 2014 and only the backing singer was different. He is friends with these people and has known them for many years - and it shows.
When I clicked on the video, I didn't expect to see Peter Gabriel almost running over some guys riding a bike on a spinning disk, but I must say, I'm not disappointed.
Love how his voice doesn't even waiver for a moment at 2:25 when he nearly cleans a guitarist off the track in front of him 😁 This is easily one of the best performances of one of my all time favourite songs.
I grew up with the song, and although many relate iIt to Peter’s move away from Genesis, the song sure seems to play out the biblical events of the period leading up to, through, and after the crucification of Jesus from the perspective of Jesus. Being betrayed the entire time by those he trusted the most, until God calls him home. I can tie every lyrical line to a biblical event, and I’m by no means highly religious. Does anybody else see it? If Peter had a hidden religious meaning to this song, what a genius to be able to package a biblical story and sell it as mainstream without the masses knowing they were listening to Christian music.
I take no issue with that fine assessment, Richard! Isn’t it wonderful to have that woven into your own history. I genuinely feel sad for kids today, including my own, with nothing of this stature emerging in parallel with their lives. At least they can share in this...
This makes me smile so much, classic track and live his tone to me is still spot on, awesome is all I can say...thank you Peter Gabriel and everyone in the band to backing singers and crew...Awesome
You can keep my things they've come to take me home. There's been some strong life changing moments in my life and this song always gets me through to my next step!
Peter Gabriel; I wish you could see this; I'm making December 4th the official Solsbury Hill Day in my little world! This song was the first music I played loud in seven months - and December 4th is when I'm moving back 'home' - to be with my partner; Donkeys, Goats, Chickens and Dogs - all moving into our new home - we've been apart since the end of July. I played this five times last night almost full blast while packing - we have no near neighbours! ..... 'Grab your things I've come to take you home' - those words, this song, has meant absolutely everything to me these past months. Here's to the day when we can enjoy concerts again - and here's to the artists who's music has kept us all going during these really difficult times. Thank you xxx
My heart is going Boom Boom Boom as everybody is dancing on stage. Seven beats between each text sentence. 7 beats of wisdom. 7 beats for freedom. And 7 beats for love. To love each others. And to climb and see up hill that the world, even your world, is so much bigger. ❤️
Bands these days are here today and gone tomorrow, forgotten in less than a year. Then there are the Immortals. I'm grateful that I grew up in an era when the Immortals rained and their music filled the air!
Peter Gabriel - consummate professional. Saw him on Growing up live tour way back in 2003 and he came on stage to introduce his support act Blind Boys of Alabama! I've been to many live gigs over the last 40 years but that was probably the best gig I've ever seen! Would love to see him again if I got the chance....
discovered this music a few days ago, I left home (in Brazil) to study in Hungary exactly 3 months now and I am missing home and my family so much, so yesterday when listening to this again it was like a truck hitting me remembering my dear ones far away from me, and I wished hard that someone would took me and tell me to grab my stuff and go back to my family, I would never have imagined that being this far from home would be that hard.... now I'm ok I think, but this song kind of hit me in the face with what I consider important for me now, since I have aways felt that "I'm never where I wanna be". But in the general picture it stills cheer me up with the promise that someday I'll return to my home :)
Victor Schnepper Lacerda I hope you are much happier and settled now. Of course you will still miss your family but think of all you will have to tell them about your time away.
"turning water into wine" .... "which connection (s) I should cut" ..... "I walked right out of the machinery" ~ "I'm never where I want to be, Liberty, she pirouette, when I think that I am free" The brilliance of this man's mind is so deep, he is often thought of as a bit crazy - nothing could be further from the Truth. There couldn't be fewer of his caliber in the business, but with his gifts, he fills all the voids, no one today could enter his league, it's refreshing to see so many young people (especially in Europe, totally get it, with our American artists as well) .. This was perfect timing, as a link today brought me here.. Cutting connections, turning it around, and vowing to never "slum it" again. It's not fair to others and you totally sell yourself short. It is truly a life altering act of courage, for him, and for us. Rockin' it with authenticity.
For me this hit a father-son thing, originally I related it with my old man, now with my adult son, well it goes deep for me. And this live performance of his classic........ Magical.
Sometimes you have to be "unfair" to other´s . . . on first look it seems. "Not hurting anymore - i.e. "stop hurting (other s as well yourself) One has to cut connections, playgroundes etc. This is a (the) way to Freedom . . . imho
Absolutely one of the BEST most creative stage performances EVER. GREAT Great Song, solid singer, VERY happy band, bike, rotating stage, pumped up crowd. Omg, one of the GREATEST live songs on you tube, EVER. Thank you Peter for giving your millions of fans worldwide the opportunity to witness your talents with this quality fucking video. So God Damn awesome!
The part of when he sings: "....Grab your things I'm going to take you home!" It's the part where I always break down since I've heard this song the first time way back in 1977. To this day this part got more and more emotional for me, as uncounsciously, the day my wife has been diagnosed with cancer, I told exactly this, leaving the country where we used to live to get back in our own country: "....Grab your things I'm going to take you home!" Carus Alambra😔
My brother that passed the beginning of last year got me hooked on Genesis then I followed Peter Gabriel when he went solo. Thank you big brother for getting me hooked and the memories. Love ya.
When I first saw this performance (online here) I was like...YES! That was so cool! I wish I could have been in the audience. I love this song. Been a fan of Peter Gabriel for many, many years.
I've been to Solsbury Hill. OH Wow...... This still hits deep. Father and son - "Grab your things I've come to take you home", for me at least - so emotional.
When my wife and I realised last year we would be staying in a village right by THE Solsbury Hill, we couldn't wait to walk up it - and, yes we sang the song when we got to the top with joy and triumph.....the climb up to it was quite a hike for middle-aged knees!
My father said this to me before this song came out. Son grab your things I've come to take you home. I played this for him when it came out an again before he passed. This song makes me happy and sad
Gabriel is the greatest solo artist of all time. I loved him with the original Genesis (Lyric theater, Baltimore), also. You should've seen /heard that show. Thank you, Peter- I will always love you and your music! Would you need a guitarist with 49 years experience? I can travel. ☆
Faire de l'exercice tout en exerçant sa passion... quoi de plus normal? J'aime cette chanson depuis la première fois où je l'ai entendue et cette vidéo représente tellement pour moi le plus important: vivre de sa passion et s'amuser! Thanks so much Peter Gabriel to say to all of us the real meaning of the life!
Greatest song. Great performance..... "I'm never where I want to be" then in the end "leave your things...I've come to take you home".....I'm so ready....I'm so done....
It's going to be a sad day for me when this man goes home. I'm sure this is filmed a few years ago and we all are getting old. You've done a great job entertaining us with your beautiful creations and you have shared well in your time here. Many love you Peter, you're my favorite artist.
Peter Gabriel has such a knack for writing timeless classics and Solsbury Hill is no exception. So innovative, so different but at the same time easy listening to be enjoyed by the many, not just the few.
Awesome song there Peter, Fantastically performed and well sung. I always class this in one of my top 3 favourite performances of all time. NICE WORK PAL.👍👍

This song is a anthem to all who value independent thought & action. Time for us to embrace the idea that there’s value in being an outsider.

Who can sing a classic, ride a bike on stage and captivate an audience all that same time? Mister G in spades. Awesome man and awesome talent.
not just any bike though - that's nearly 20K worth of Moulton Double Pylon :D

Climbing up on Solsbury Hill
I could see the city light
Wind was blowing, time stood still
Eagle flew out of the night
He was something to observe
Came in close, I heard a voice
Standing, stretching every nerve
Had to listen, had no choice
I did not believe the information
I just had to trust imagination
My heart going boom, boom, boom
"Son", he said, "grab your things, I've come to take you home"
To keep in silence I resigned
My friends would think I was a nut
Turning water into wine
Open doors would soon be shut
So I went from day to day
Though my life was in a rut
'Til I thought of what I'll say
Which connection I should cut
I was feeling part of the scenery
I walked right out of the machinery
My heart going boom, boom, boom
"Hey", he said, "grab your things, I've come to take you home"
(Hey, back home)
When illusion spin her net
I'm never where I want to be
And liberty she pirouette
When I think that I am free
Watched by empty silhouettes
Who close their eyes but still can see
No one taught them etiquette
I will show another me
Today I don't need a replacement
I'll show them what the smile on my face meant
My heart going boom, boom, boom
"Hey", I said, "you can keep my things, they've come to take me home"

This mans "art" is so off the charts incredible. Difficult to comprehend how great this guy truly is.
I gave up 50 years ago, he's just The Awesomeness in a human body
Im 60 years old and going to shows for the last 44 years. Seen some great acts but nobody comes close to the genius of Peter Gabriel.

Peter Gabriel is the first artist I've seen ride a bike on a stage
I have seen other artists do it but not lately these things tend to come in cycles.
Most artists cannot properly sing and move...enough examples of that in nowadays "music"

Riding a bike and singing at the same time is hard and is a talent that not many people can do. But then again Peter Gabriel is not like many people.
Tony Levin's bass playing is absolutely awesome here.
Great!! Cycling and singing at the same time....His voice is getting better and better as the years go by....
When I first saw this performance (online here) I was like...YES! That was so cool! I wish I could have been in the audience. I love this song. Been a fan of Peter Gabriel for many, many years.
Best live performance of Solsbury Hill ever
thanks for the lyrics; can tell it is an old soul's song. i wanna go home too.
I've been to Solsbury Hill. OH Wow...... This still hits deep. Father and son - "Grab your things I've come to take you home", for me at least - so emotional.
When my wife and I realised last year we would be staying in a village right by THE Solsbury Hill, we couldn't wait to walk up it - and, yes we sang the song when we got to the top with joy and triumph.....the climb up to it was quite a hike for middle-aged knees!
Thats where the father and daughter was poisoned...
Beautifully said. It touches the heart x
DITTO BRO .
Isn't Solsbury Hill near Stonehenge?
I went to Bath last year...I have newfound respect for Peter..and these lyrics.
You can be having a really bad day and this song will bring you too happiness! It’s my favorite!
Spot on. Smiles.
My father said this to me before this song came out. Son grab your things I've come to take you home. I played this for him when it came out an again before he passed. This song makes me happy and sad
Such a beautiful version of a great song.
Gabriel is the greatest solo artist of all time. I loved him with the original Genesis (Lyric theater, Baltimore), also. You should've seen /heard that show. Thank you, Peter- I will always love you and your music! Would you need a guitarist with 49 years experience? I can travel. ☆
This is my absolute favorite song EVER!!
What a classic song/story. It has meaning of following your hearts desires.
I thought this was just a catchy tune the first time I heard it, and I added it to my playlist... Now I just think it's incredible.
Faire de l'exercice tout en exerçant sa passion... quoi de plus normal? J'aime cette chanson depuis la première fois où je l'ai entendue et cette vidéo représente tellement pour moi le plus important: vivre de sa passion et s'amuser! Thanks so much Peter Gabriel to say to all of us the real meaning of the life!
Gabriel puts on the best performances of all times
I'm 58 years of age , been to hundreds of gigs all different genres of music but this one song is my absolute favourite
I think Peter’s voice has matured beautifully with him.
I’m in happy tears!! This is indescribable 💚
Over the year's, this amazing song plays and lift's my spirits xx Thank you
Geert Smits, nog veel dank namens mijn moeder Annemarie, dank zij jou is ze verslaafd geraakt aan alles van Peter Gabriel
Greatest song. Great performance..... "I'm never where I want to be" then in the end "leave your things...I've come to take you home".....I'm so ready....I'm so done....
It's going to be a sad day for me when this man goes home. I'm sure this is filmed a few years ago and we all are getting old. You've done a great job entertaining us with your beautiful creations and you have shared well in your time here. Many love you Peter, you're my favorite artist.
Solsbury Hill & Moulton Bikes... Great to see Peter Gabriel in touch with his local Bath & West Wiltshire roots!
Peter Gabriel has such a knack for writing timeless classics and Solsbury Hill is no exception.
So innovative, so different but at the same time easy listening to be enjoyed by the many, not just the few.
2019 still listening, still one of my alltime favorites :)
Super!
I was so mesmerized by Peter Gabriel's performance that I could not even applaud....It was magical.......Live at Forest National in Brussels 1980...
Awesome song there Peter, Fantastically performed and well sung. I always class this in one of my top 3 favourite performances of all time. NICE WORK PAL.👍👍

Bom Garoto
La bella gioventù, Peter mi ha tirato grande 😎

Please stop asking who is listening to this song in 202?. I will be listening to this till the end of times.
The best concerts I've ever seen, what an amazingly creative genius!
Peter Gabriel is pure genius. I have no more to say.
I LOVE Peter Gabriel and this song! Why???
