So today i realized in perfect clarity how perfect Peter's song- Whole Thing is. It is classic Peter Gabriel and I have come to see it is my all time favorite Peter Gabriel song. Whole Thing has everything in it I love about Peter and his music. Especially those heart-wrenching, spirit soaring vocals. And that edgy screechy sound that pierces the center of my middle three chakras. It is pure and depending on my moment, brings me to laughter and joy and sadness and sorrow. And I dance and dance and dance, even if being quietly still. It took Peter how many years to perfect this song? I don't know for sure but I chose this as the one song from Peters library that I would bring with me for eternity on that desert island. What would be your choice?

No doubt at all San Jacinto

BTW Hugs back at you, Lore! :-]

Biko Eventually someone might hear my singing and come rescue me, but then they would get caught up in the Big Chant and next thing ya know we're sipping out of one another's coconut shells again.

Whole Thing and San Jacinto are both very good choices. For me, I think "Washing of the Water". At least for today? :-]

Still Mercy Street. But it's so difficult to choose. San Jacinto is a perfect song too.

yeah. . . Washing is a close one. . . very close in fact. . . Too close

Has to be In Your Eyes for me. I really don't enjoy SO very much, but this gem is without a doubt his finest.

I guess only Red Rain and Mercy Street still touch me on "So" but time will change that again. I/O one day???

Also "Signal to Noise" - a song that has the possibility to open inner worlds.

. . . . . . . . . BUMP ! The ONE song. . . . . .let me think about it. . . . . . . . This is to HARD for me - SO others can make some suggestions. . . . .

I totaly agree with you,Cimber!! Too too difficult,too hard,every song of wonderful Gabriel is the ONE song. . . Ok I will think. . .but very sloooowwwly. . . :-]
