dal concerto del 3 luglio 2007 a Roma, Ippodromo delle Capannelle

Peter Gabriel: Frasi in inglese

“Rest your head.
You worry too much.
It's going to be alright.
When times get rough,
You can fall back on us.”

Song lyrics, So (1986)
Contesto: Rest your head.
You worry too much.
It's going to be alright.
When times get rough,
You can fall back on us.
Don't give up;
Please don't give up.

“The Man with the Child in His Eyes is still one of those things, which right from the get-go … has its own life, because it's just a great song.”

The Kate Bush Story (2014)
Contesto: The Man with the Child in His Eyes is still one of those things, which right from the get-go … has its own life, because it's just a great song. … For all the time that she or I or anyone spend decorating and creating moods, its actually the key element of what your saying, the melody and the chords which still speak louder than all the stuff around, on a great song.

“I come to you defenses down,
With the trust of a child.”

Red Rain
Song lyrics, So (1986)
Contesto: Red rain-
Putting the pressure on much harder now
To return again and again.
Just let the red rain splash you,
Let the rain fall on your skin.
I come to you defenses down,
With the trust of a child.

“I look to the time with you to keep me awake and alive.”

In Your Eyes
Song lyrics, So (1986)
Contesto: I get so tired of working so hard for our survival
I look to the time with you to keep me awake and alive.

“Love I get so lost, sometimes.
Days pass and this emptiness fills my heart.”

In Your Eyes
Song lyrics, So (1986)
Contesto: Love I get so lost, sometimes.
Days pass and this emptiness fills my heart.
When I want to run away,
I drive off in my car.
But whichever way I go,
I come back to the place you are.

“I was taught to fight, taught to win;
I never thought I could fail.”

Don't Give Up, Duet written by Gabriel, sung with Kate Bush
Song lyrics, So (1986)
Contesto: In this proud land we grew up strong;
We were wanted all along.
I was taught to fight, taught to win;
I never thought I could fail.No fight left or so it seems;
I am a man whose dreams have all deserted.
I've changed my face, I've changed my name,
But no one wants you when you lose.

“Creativity comes from the freedom to fail. And freedom to fail comes from experimentation, and that's what gives something its individuality.”

On Kate Bush
The Kate Bush Story (2014)
Contesto: Creativity comes from the freedom to fail. And freedom to fail comes from experimentation, and that's what gives something its individuality. And, you know, I think her courage, which is the positive way of interpreting it, or bloody-mindedness, which is the negative, is part of what gives her real value as an artist.

“It’s only in uncertainty
That we’re naked and alive.”

That Voice Again, written by Peter Gabriel and David Rhodes
Song lyrics, So (1986)
Contesto: I’m hearing right and wrong so clearly.
There must be more than this.
It’s only in uncertainty
That we’re naked and alive.

“We do what we're told,
Told to do.”

We Do What We're Told
Song lyrics, So (1986)

“If looks could kill, they probably will
In games without frontiers — war without tears.”

Games Without Frontiers
Song lyrics, Peter Gabriel (III) (1980)

“French for "Games without frontiers" (background vocals throughout the song, sung by Kate Bush)”

Jeux sans frontieres
Games Without Frontiers
Song lyrics, Peter Gabriel (III) (1980)
