good evening! gosh i love my thursday nights - usually it's a night when i can relax a bit and post on something completely random - i do try to shake things up here on popbytes! (there's only so much lohan, hilton, and spears one can take in a single day!) over the past few weeks i've been having a small peter gabriel affair/revival going on (i think first kicked off when i posted about sinead o'connor a few weeks ago) i've always loved him (i totally had a minor crush on him when i was younger - lordy he was so cute back in the day - and doesn't look so bad for an older guy (age 57) these days!) i don't have a ton of favorite male artists (everyone knows i'm all about the ladies) when asked which guys i like best i reply prince & peter gabriel - both are tops for me!

besides possessing an amazing and haunting voice along with pure music talent (who doesn't love solsbury hill?!?) mr. gabriel has always had innovative & cool videos (way ahead of their time) so over the weekend i headed over to amoeba down on sunset blvd and picked up play the videos - which features twenty-three videos along with bonuses & extras galore! for some reason i had never seen the 'official' video for his smash hit in your eyes...i've posted it below - along w/ a couple of other great peter clips! his website also has a number of videos available for free viewing! then just today i came across a picture of him performing over in italy on july 3rd (posted at the very bottom) once i saw the pic i knew i'd have to do a full on post about him!

oh my word - i'd love to see peter in concert someday - it must be an incredible experience (please chime in with a comment if you have!) shame on me for never having seen him play live! so there you have it - i felt a mr. gabriel post coming on and today it came to the surface! i love posting on stuff i love - and didn't get pitched on! much love to all as always - it still freaks me out to think people are actually reading my silly little blog! popbytes over & out for tonight...xxoo!



in your eyes here comes the flood live

POPBYTES LOVES PETER GABRIEL

Hi MK !
I actually was at one of his concerts here in Germany 2 weeks ago, in Mainz. It was f a n t a s t i c. It was a very cool atmosphere plus he spoke very good german, the crowd went silent when he talked and cheered even more after every sentence. He is sure a great artist. And the best is he's recording each single concert and makes them available on cd !!! I already signed up for my copy. Don't miss the next chance to see him, really really worth it ! Take care and keep up the good work, Tina

Love Peter and his music. Where is this passion in music today? He is amazing in concert. A true artist. Thanks for the post.

Oh God, I had a crush with him back in the 80's when I was just 8 or 9 years old, he was cute and looked smart, the kind of guy I wanted to marry as a child.

Hi MK.

Thanks for sharing this with US ,I have been a convert of Peters ever since i saw his work at Londons Millenium dome in 2000.

I was blown away by the show and bought the OVO album there and then at the dome and have since been lucky enough to attend his live concerts on a number of occaisions,including a very small,intimate gig in a reclaimed cornish quarry that now houses plants and ecological events from all over the world called the "Eden Project".(google that and find out about this amazing place)

You are right to be excited about his work,because he stands above most other artists in that he is a visionary who does things that people finally catch onto years later and inevitably copy...

Please enjoy his work for a long time, a fellow fan, Phill.

hello MK,

Yes, Gabriel is something else. I discovered Peter Gabriel a few years ago - he is simply on another planet. So innovative, he's always pushing the envelope. The thing is, that his music isn't sugar - it's like a full, juicy steak, that takes a while to digest. But once it hits you, it's like discovering a new part of your brain - almost like a revelation.

I actually met him last year, and he is even more interesting in person. He could care less about celebrity or attention - he loves ideas, and was more interested in hearing about my next project than his. a humble, yet inspiring person..
