Peter Brian Gabriel (born 13 February 1950) is an English singer-songwriter, musician and humanitarian activist who rose to fame as the original lead singer and flautist of the progressive rock band Genesis. After leaving Genesis in 1975, Gabriel went on to a successful solo career, with "Solsbury Hill" his first single. His 1986 album, So, is his most commercially successful, and is certified triple platinum in the UK and five times platinum in the U.S. The album's biggest hit, "Sledgehammer", won a record nine MTV Awards at the 1987 MTV Video Music Awards, and it remains the most played music video in the history of MTV.
Gabriel has been a champion of world music for much of his career. He co-founded the WOMAD festival in 1982. He has continued to focus on producing and promoting world music through his Real World Records label. He has also pioneered digital distribution methods for music, co-founding OD2, one of the first online music download services. Gabriel has been involved in numerous humanitarian efforts. In 1980, he released the anti-apartheid single "Biko". He has participated in several human rights benefit concerts, including Amnesty International's Human Rights Now! tour in 1988, and co-founded the WITNESS human rights organisation in 1992. Gabriel developed The Elders with Richard Branson, which was launched by Nelson Mandela in 2007.
In the Abrahamic religions, Gabriel (Hebrew: גַּבְרִיאֵל, Modern Gavri'el, Tiberian Gaḇrîʼēl "God is my strength"; Biblical Greek: Γαβριήλ, Gabriēl) is an angel who typically serves as a messenger sent from God to certain people.
Gabriel is mentioned in both the Old and New Testaments of the Bible. In the Old Testament, he appears to the prophet Daniel, delivering explanations of Daniel's visions (Daniel 8:15–26, 9:21–27). In the Gospel of Luke, Gabriel appeared to Zechariah and the Virgin Mary, foretelling the births of John the Baptist and Jesus, respectively (Luke 1:11–38). In the Book of Daniel, he is referred to as "the man Gabriel", while in the Gospel of Luke, Gabriel is referred to as "an angel of the Lord" (Luke 1:11). Gabriel is not called an archangel in the Bible, but is so called in Intertestamental period sources like the Book of Enoch. In the Roman Catholic, Anglican, and Eastern and Oriental Orthodox churches, the archangels Michael, Raphael, and Gabriel are also referred to as saints. In Islam, Gabriel is considered an archangel whom God is believed to have sent with revelation to various prophets, including Muhammad. The 96th chapter of the Quran, al-Alaq, is believed by Muslims to have been the first chapter (surah) revealed by Gabriel to Muhammad.

Peter Gabriel’s Grammy Award winning film “Secret World Live” has now been newly restored and remastered from the original film to be seen and heard in the best possible quality. Filmed in Modena, Italy across two nights in November 1993 as part of Peter Gabriel’s acclaimed “Secret World Live” tour in support of the “Us” album, the show is elaborately presented and choreographed with two stages joined by a narrow pier. Peter Gabriel has always been a charismatic live performer with the ability to draw his audience into the onstage world he has created and rarely has this been better captured than on “Secret World Live”.

DVD: http://smarturl.it/PeterGabrAthensDvd Blu-Ray: http://smarturl.it/PeterGabrAthensBlu In October 1987 after many months on the road, it was in the elevated surroundings of the hillside open-air theatre at Lycabettus overlooking Athens, that the "So" tour came to a climactic close. The three nights were filmed in what was the first-ever Peter Gabriel concert to be committed to film. As a concert film, it was brilliantly shot and has now been equally brilliantly remastered, a crystal-clear record of Gabriel and band in their mid-80s pomp. The viewer is placed right in the heart of the action all the way, from the band's synchronised choreography on opening number "This Is The Picture", right through to the skin-pricking closer "Biko". In between, we're lost in music, spellbound by the s...
Peter Gabriel has long been a favorite artist of mine. His music videos helped inspire me to get into stop motion and his live music has always reminded me how emotional a performance can get. Here is an early performance from before I was born! :o An inspiring piece of history which should be shared and preserved. www.brainphreak.net http://www.facebook.com/bphreak
Music & Lyrics by P. Gabriel 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 All my instincts They return The grand façade So soon will burn Without a noise Without my pride I reach out from the inside In your eyes The light, the heat In your eyes I am complete In your eyes I see the doorway To a thousand churches In your eyes The resolution In your eyes Of all the fruitless searches Oh, I see the light and the heat In your eyes Oh, I want to be that complete I want to touch the light The heat I see in your eyes Love I don't like to see so much pain So much wasted And this moment keeps slipping away I get so tired Working so hard for our survival I look t...

Order the 'So' 25th anniversary box set (Out Oct 22nd) - http://petergabriel.com Peter Gabriel's engineer, Richard 'Dickie' Chappell, explains the thinking behind the 'So DNA' disc included in the Anniversary edition box set. Digging into the archives Peter and Dickie found many different versions of the material that eventually appeared on So. Peter decided to include some of the extracts from early cassettes and half inch tapes when ideas were being formed. Track by track the songs unfold from their early beginnings to the full production. Dickie explains this painstaking archiving process and goes on to talk about the three exclusive songs on the 12" vinyl included in the box set. 'Segarada', 'Courage' and 'Don't Give Up (alternative version)' all have a place in the history of '...

Die kameras sind schon lange hier
Reporter stehen spalier
Heute ist es anders
Heute nicht wie sonst
Heute mach ich es endlich
Den schnappschuss in das licht
Schnappschuss in das licht
- ich ziele in das licht
Vier strassen noch braucht der zug
Den fahrer blendet die sonne
Gewehr hinterm fensterkreuz
Keiner sieht's in der kolonne
Drei strassen noch, die kreuzung ist frei
Jetzt faengt der jubel an
Du hoerst I'm radio
Was dieser mann alles kann
Ich - zeig es euch jetzt
Ich - zeig es euch jetzt
Ihr glotzt nur auf die scheibe
Nummer fuer die datenbank
Einen schuss brenn ich euch in den kopf
Lerr, ausgetraeumt und krank
Nur ich, ich l e b e
Sie kommen um die ecke
Motorradschutz ganz vorn
Ich wisch den schweiss von der stirn
- von unten gebruell
- ich werde ganz still
Im andern wagen faehrt der gouverneur
Doch ihn hab ich nicht I'm visier
Du bist - held des tages
Stolz I'm cadillac
"du bist nicht zum hassen
- eigentlich ganz egal
Wir brauchen uns beide
- perfekte wahl
Ich will liebe von allen
Wie bei dir soll es sein
Was du nicht kriegst musst du holen
Und ich hol dich jetzt ein."
Atem stoppt
Abzug springt
Und die
Kugel durch den lauf
Diese stille - was kann ich dafuer?
Einsamer junge hinter der tuer
Die freunde sind alle weg
Da ist mein spielzeuggewehr
Wo seid ihr - mama und papa
Ihr redet nicht mehr
Ich werd trauriger jahr fuer jahr
Schaut mich an -
- ich ziele in das licht
