Peter Gabriel tiene una carrera (como solista o con Genesis) llena de experimentación y cargas emocionales. Esto le ha contribuido para convertirse en un extraordinario narrador de historias que van más allá de lo mundano, que nos invitan a explorar lo imaginario y simbólico, así como lo profundamente humano. El misticismo es característico en la lírica que firma, de esta manera mezcla lo personal con lo universal de una manera extraordinaria. Y por eso queremos que nos acompañen en este recorrido a través de algunas de las frases más espirituales, poderosas y reflexivas en su palmarés:
1. 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.
Red Rain/ So LP/ 1986
2. Young man says ‘you are what you eat’ – eat well. Old man says ‘you are what you wear’ – wear well. You know what you are, you don’t give a damn.
Dancing with the Moonlit Kid/ Selling England by the Pound LP/ 1973 – Genesis
3. Imaginary creatures are trapped in birth on celluloid. The fleas cling to the golden fleece hoping they’ll find peace. Each thought and gesture are caught in celluloid.
Carpet Crawlers/ The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway LP/ 1974 – Genesis
4. When I try to sleep at night I can only dream in red. The outside world is black and white with only one colour dead.
Biko/ Peter Gabriel LP/ 1980
5. Drawn across the plainland to the place that is higher. Drawn into the circle that dances around the fire.
The Rythm of the Heat/ Peter Gabriel IV LP/ 1982
6. The more I look, the more I find. As I close on in, I get so blind. I feel it in my head, I feel it in my toes. I feel it in my sex, that’s the place it goes.
Digging in the Dirt/ Us LP/ 1992
7. You know the way that things go when what you fight for starts to fall.
Signal to Noise/ Up LP/ 2002
