    My late husband adored Peter Gabriel. He died aged 31. I’m nearly seventy, but this binds us forever together. He is the young Peter. He never lived to be the older version. RIP my love and thank you for the beautiful memories and two beautiful children

    Our youngest son had a rough start in life and had to spend 5 days in nicu before he got strong enough to go home with us and his twin brother. During those days, we were all still in the hospital and as I knew his feeding schedule I went to check every time I could, or feed him myself. Day and night. Every day, every night. On the morning rounds of the last day, I was told he was good to go if I was confident about getting him fed sufficiently. I bursted in tears of joy like a kid. We got him checked out and I was allowed to roll him over to the newborns department where my wife and the twin brother were waiting for me to get back. I opened the door and said 'honey grab your things, I've come to take you home' while I rolled in our youngest behind me. Good phrase so I thought. So, after all the paperwork was done and we got in the car, this song just so happened to come on the radio. Kids are almost 2 years old now and perfectly healthy, but the song still gets me goosebumps and a tear in my eye.

    In 2016 I was hospitalized. A 7 hours surgical operation saved my life. During the days at the hospital I listened to this song many times, and I kept listening when I came back home.
    The line that goes like 'Hey, he said, grab your things I'm going to take you home' always hit me deep thinking about my father that drove me back home. I lost my father two years ago and, despite being a 50 years old man now, I just can't keep from crying every time I listen to it.

That's why I like youtube so much because I get to decide what I listen to and Gabriel is always on the top of my best 10. His voice is still rich and strong at a much older age than most.

    Peter Gabriel is a genius. As much for its creativity (songwriter, singer, showman) in the original Genesis (co-founder) as for its brilliant evolution in his own solo career between technology, world music, experimental sound, classic music but always with beautiful rock melodies. Peter Gabriel was educated in a musical English family (College of Charterhouse) and could learning piano, flute, percussions, mime and dance. But his major asset will forever remain his charismatic voice. Now, we're looking forward to the new Peter Gabriel's album.
