This is part of my earliest memories related to pop music, seeing that video on TV as a kid.
And the video is still as awesome as it was back then, as well as the song. cool

And I must add that those who have mixing software should check out Peter Gabriel's website where you can download the actual unmixed tracks from this song after logging on to the site. I haven't tried doing a mix of it yet but there are some very cool sounds in there (including some LinnDrum stuff for those making beats wink ).

This is the first time I´ve heard this song.

Well, I prefer SledgeHammer and Steam.

MTV didn't come to Europe until '87 and since dag is from the Czech Republic, I doubt that she could see Peter Gabriel's videos on the communist TV station in Czechoslovakia (before the Velvet Revolution in '89 that is).
