I lost my dad to cancer 20 years ago and the line “son,grab your things I’ve come to take you home” makes me tear up,every single time-that’s the power of a great line

CLASSIC .... I was born in 1950 and feel so blessed to grow up through the 50s 60s 70s and 80s ...... Just a GREAT TIME FOR MUSIC ❤

Got in the car with my dog, rolled down the window, and left town forever.... played this as I got on the expressway. One of the best days of my life.

If you ever spent time in an orphanage… and your dad comes back for you… like mine did… this song just hits different

"I was feeling part of the scenery, I walked right out of the machinery" Amazing lyrics!

One of the many things I adore about PG is the fact his diction is so clear. You hear every word of the lyrics. No wonder his music connects with us.

Absolutely timeless song and not his only one either. One of those artists that truly belong in the legendary category.

"Red Rain" by Peter Gabriel is a must-listen!

Jamal, I've been going through a rough time lately, and I just wanted to drop a line to say that your warm and generous spirit has brought me some joy and kept me going. I appreciate you.

Peter had left Genesis and was nervous about it, so he wrote this song to work it out within himself, and to give himself a bit of a pep talk that he was doing the right thing by going solo. I'll bet you'd dig his song "Shock The Monkey" if you haven't heard it yet.

"And liberty she pirouette. When I think that I am free"

“I walked right out of the machinery”.....the song I will sing the day I quit my corporate America job.....

I always thought this song sounded like a spiritual awakening

I retired 18 months ago and the last day that I drove away from work, I had this song ready to play in the car.

This is without a doubt my favorite song of all time. When my dad would pick me up from high school he’d say “grab your things I’ve come to take you home” at least once a month. We’d sing this song on the way home constantly. I graduated last year in May, and now with online college the two of us don’t have our alone in the car music time.

His voice is like warm buttercreme cookies on a brisk winter evening in front of a warm fire.

“You can keep my things, they’ve come to take me home”

"Solsbury Hill" is a touching song about spiritual awakening and finding oneself... and cabbages, apparently...

This song always makes me so happy. It sounds like flying.

peter gabriel has so many amazing songs it's exhausting. Most are not the singles.

Always loved this song. Now when I hear it reminds me of my Father who passed from cancer in 2016. RIP Dad. Come take me home when it's my time.

This was my late husband's favourite song. He would sing it and I will always remember the emotions he would show as he we sang along. And yes, it was a song I shared at his celebration.

Gabriel has a one-of-a-kind voice. Combine that with deep-thought lyrics and it is winning, and has been for decades. Thanks for the reminder.

Such a Great Song....! Check out "Games Without Frontiers" it's Deep.

Biko...please do Biko. One of the most powerful songs ever written and performed.

he is an amazing solo artist but when he was in Genesis it was also amazing with hits like The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway, and Carpet Crawlers

This was Peter's first big solo hit and he didn't copy anyone. A real artist.

Ain't she a beaute! A production masterpiece; It starts so simply and builds to a symphony !

Deep deep song, one that a lot of people can relate to in many different ways.

Admittedly, l was worried when he left Genesis that l'd never hear from him again. He did say he wanted to spend time with family and decompress. I needn't have worried. His first solo albums were like nothing ever heard before. Absolutely stunning music!

This song evoked a sense of nostalgia even when it was first released. One of his most beautiful songs is “Mercy Street.” I hope you’ll check it out. 💙

Some of the most well written lyrics in pop music history

This is my very favorite song ever, and has been for decades. The lyrical imagery, the unconventional rhythm (7/4 !), the percussion... ! It just transports me.

I was in a bad situation and this song reminds me of my call to my father who booked my ticket home. Thank god for good parents !

Always liked this song. I used to live near Solsbury Hill. It's a real place.

I saw Peter Gabriel on the solisbury hill tour back in the day in Germany and it was a life changing experience. Peter Gabriel is one of the most influential and creative artists of the decade

We become so programmed to accept that we should suck it up and keep on plugging away that we can forget we can and should walk away sometimes. I've had to drop everything and reinvent myself, despite well-meant advice, and no song calls it up like this one. Thanks for this Jamel! I agree with other comments that "Biko" is a Gabriel song you'd enjoy.

One of my all time favourite songs. It's perfectly brilliant!

At the end “You can keep my things, they’ve come to take me home,” is awesome!

This song! This song . . . I loved it from the first play on the radio way back then. I loved it so much that I never wanted, nor did I find out, the full meaning of it. It makes me cry anyway.

one of my fave tunes of all time, blessings

That song always makes me feel warm in my chest every time he sings this "grab your things, son, I´m going to take you home"

This song will always be my favorite by him, it's so special, you have to be a genius to create a song like this. Once you hear it, you'll never forget, at least, not me!

There's no words for how much I love this song. I can close my eyes & see every image he describes. The lyrics are amazing. Solsbury Hill is a real place in Bath, England & he used to jog by it. If he had never left Genesis we would never have the iconic song "In Your Eyes".

Boy did I dance when saw and heard him sing this live!!! My most fave song of his and he has many greats. This song means so much to me in a more personal way as I am sure it does to many xxx🦅

Haven’t heard that song in years. Forgot how good it was!

This is one me favorite songs, and the last line, "Hey" I said, "You can keep my things, They`ve come to take me home".

Of all the songs Peter Gabriel has done the one I always think about is Sledgehammer, probably because the video is so iconic.

It's difficult to write a song with an odd time signature that feels like a standard 4/4 beat. This is one of the best.

That’s one of my favorites. Peter Gabriel is fantastic live.

Solsbury Hill and Biko have always been two of my favorites from Gabriel. Both are just fantastic songs.

My favorite Peter Gabriel song. ❤️

Another great one, Jamel - and another big smile on my face watching your reaction, as always. Thanks for always bringing the light my man!

GREAT album as a whole. Peter is a talent and legend of his time. The "So" album is a must and should be in everyone's music library. Seriously, one of the best albums of music ever.

One of the most beautiful songs ever written. Pure perfection.

This song was in every commercial in the early 2000s. Such an inspiring but sad song. It is a very unique song.

Literally, the song that probably meant the most to me in my lifetime. At every major change and decision I've made in my life, this song was there for me. Just follow your heart, it won't turn out wrong.

The accoustic guitar / flute combo just makes me happy inside. Every. Single. Time.

Love him. Biko will knock you out. Thank you!

My absolute favorite song of his. The music is creative and fun and the message about spreading your wings is inspiring.

A timeless classic...gives me chills every time!

One of my favorite and to me most interesting artist!

YEEEESSSSSSS, I love me some Peter Gabriel!!!!!!! This song gives me all the feels.

This is such an "English" song; I can't imagine an American band coming up with anything like it.

The World Wide Live version of this song really emphasizes the "boom boom boom" part. It also truly embodies the whimsical vibe of the song. Sure you lose all the cool panning effects of the guitars and vocal improvisations at the end.

Please react to Mona Lisa’s and mad hatters by Elton John and tangerine by Led Zeppelin.

top tune.... was living in chile for 5 years.. when i decided to come home i heard this song.. the line son grab your things am going to take you home ..made me weep.. i was 52

Peter Gabriel is truly one of the most heartfelt and spiritual artist i've ever heard. I love the songs 'In the Blood of Eden, Mercy Street, Red Rain and so many others. One of the very best of all time!

Hey man I bet you'd like his song Red Rain. I'd also highly recommend Mama by Genesis, it's one of Phil Collins' best vocals.

He's my favorite artist. I've seen him in concert 4 times. The stage productions are always fabulous! Lots of live versions of this song. All of them are amazing!

A parent saying, "I have come to take you home." So powerful;

Peter Gabriel wrote songs for the heart, the feet and the mind.

Your reacting to some great stuff today Jamel. Love Peter Gabriel. Thank you. 👍🎶

This is another great song brother. You should check the song "Biko" by Peter Gabriel, it is written for the anti-apartheid activist Steven Biko and it helped to spread the word regarding the situation in South Africa during the apartheid.

Absolutely love this tune❤️🎤🇬🇧

All time favorites, will bring you to tears!

Please do Gabriel's "Shock The Monkey" next. It is awesome!!!

Yeah Peter Gabriel's first album that was probably the best example of somebody re-defining themselves. or Reinventing themselves this whole album was absolutely transformative it really was a big departure from what Genesis was doing I mean it took him a long time to get a solo album out because the last time he had done with Genesis was in 1974 and this first solo album came out in 77 that's where you two probably do a reaction to every song on that first album and you wouldn't be disappointed there's even a blue song on there can you believe that s***? But of course it's totally unconventional it has some twists and turns you've never heard in a blues song anywhere it's a song called waiting for the big one all right my man well there's that one song moribund. And the Burgermeister

I love visiting Jamels House. Listening to great music with friends.

This song reminds me of all the times I was there for my son as he battled his opioid addiction. Sadly he relapsed and died last February after almost six years clean and going back to college to earn two masters degrees in teaching and leaving an 11 year old daughter. I took him home more times than I can count but in the end it was one to few! I miss him so much!

The song that made me a Peter Gabriel fan for life! If you like more heartfelt music by him, I suggest checking out "Here Comes the Flood", but NOT the version from his first solo album, but from Robert Fripp's solo album Exposure or from any of Gabriel's live performances in late 1970s or early 1980s.

It’s such a beautiful song, I’ve always loved it… Happy to see you react to this one 🙌🏻

This song makes me cry. Many a person have waited their whole lives to hear someone say "grab your things, I've come to take you home." Me too.

My favorite song, by any artist. Beautiful. Peaceful. Inspiring. Means so much to so many.

I love this song. I think it was his first hit after leaving Genesis. Wonderful and warm!

Listen to this one live from "Peter Gabriel Plays Live" with Manu Katche on drums. You really feel the BOOMBOOMBOOM.

I can't hear this song without my brain exploding, "1..2..3...1...2...3..4" over and over - love your channel Jamel. Love your genuine reactions. Thank you!

One of my best friends died in 2003 and as I drove home from the funeral, I turned the radio on and this song had just came on. It still makes me cry.

One of my high school classmates, Steve The Deacon Hunter, is playing the acoustic guitar (solos too) on this recording. I think of him every time I hear this song.

Jamel react also to these others super hits from him : "Shock the monkey" , "Biko" , "Here comes the flood" , "Games without frontiers" & "Red Rain"

Peter Gabriel is a phenomenal talent whose musical compositions are well worth exploring.

I saw Peter Gabriel for the first time in Philadelphia on the tour for SO. When the house lights went down the crowd was cheering so loud my ears were numb. I have never heard crowd noise like this.

This is my favorite song by him, hands down.

Peter is an amazing artist. I fell in love with his voice in Genesis, and followed him after he went solo. He's got a massive catalogue. I hope you dive deep into it. This is one of my favs.

It's funny you made the comment about being played at funerals, this is one that I have picked to be played at my funeral. It really is about new beginnings.

This is one of the songs I want played at my funeral. Thanks for sharing this incredible song with your viewers. ~Be Blessed

I need a time machine to get back to the days of real music and musicianship.

If you think this song is good, wait until you hear games without frontiers or Biko

This is the song my husband and I played for my son after a year long stint in a rehab after many bad decisions as a young adult. Praise God this year changed him for the better and he is now an expectant daddy with a loving wife. I will always love this song and remember it was such fond memories.

Great song! Love Peter Gabriel. Great reaction,and opinion. Stay safe brother.
