That's him. Saw him once on TV trying to be a pop idol, or being promoted as
the next pop idol or something like that. It didn't fit. The music was too
deep to be pop and he had short hair. So when I saw his name on the
soundtrack credits of the Jesus flick I did a double take. Peter Gabriel?
SInce then I have read of his world music expertise. What else has he done?
He has the power.

film was coming on but had the channel on bravo and from the first note, sat
up and listened and recognized it. became a fan when i was sent out to shoot
a concert and he performed a song about steven biko. he can stop you dead in
your tracks.
