Peter Gabriel's 'So' turns 40
Peter Gabriel released his fifth studio album “So” on this day in 1986. It would become his best-selling solo album. Are you a fan of this album? What are your favourite tracks? #PeterGabriel
Susan15I always liked “Red Rain” and “In Your Eyes” as well as his duet with Kate Bush, “Don’t Give Up.” 💙🎶
Chris Perlman12Love this album and saw the tour Don’t Give Up is one of the most beautiful songs I’ve ever heard. Mercy Street is incredible imo. Red Rain This is the Picture All the singles
Birdy11It’s his big commercial album, but it’s a good commercial album. ‘Melt’ is still my favourite.
🦋TNGal °‧🫧⋆.ೃ࿔*:･🐾9"Sledgehammer," "In Your Eyes," and "Don’t Give Up are favorites." But "Red Rain" is my overall pick. The atmosphere on that track is unreal. The drums sound huge, and the sync textures feel like a storm moving in. Gabriel made art rock feel massive and deeply human at the same time.
John Lee8Music fans can always find something of interest with Gabriel. This is a brilliant album . Groudbreaking. A sledgehammer if you will.
KellybeeHTX8Best Gabriel album by far…My favorite tracks: “Big Time” “Don’t Give Up” (with Kate Bush) “Mercy Street” “In Your Eyes” “Sledgehammer” youtu.be/VjEq-r2agqc?...
Ilkka Lundberg8Bang bang Peter's sledgehammer came down upon my head...🎶🎵 #Sledgehammer
Whatshisname7Red Rain and In Your Eyes are great. I love Gabriel’s music, but prefer Us and III to So.
patchouly6So captures that moment in time perfectly for me. Just hearing In Your Eyes takes me back instantly.
AeschTunes5My favorite tracks from the album: Red Rain Sledgehammer Don't Give Up In Your Eyes Big Time
Random Geezer5It was an album of its time. Slick production, unchallenging songs, nothing much of enduring interest for non-Gabriel fans.
Joseph Warren4Very much. I have a copy of the CD.
thedweez.bsky.social4This is a fantastic album. Smooth. Polished. but I lean towards the first 4
