Down the Rabbit Hole

Soundtrack of my Life Challenge
Feb 8th - In Your Eyes, Peter Gabriel

If there is any song in my varied and eclectic music library that I could deem, "my favorite", it would be this one. This version, where Gabriel showcases a variety of international vocal and instrumental talents is the best of the best.

In my humble opinion, this may be one of the most perfectly constructed songs ever. Gabriel's vocals and lyrics combined with the African influence of Youssou N'Dour, make this a profound and epic love song of global proportions.

And yes, I realize it was used in "Say Anything" in a devotional declaration of love...with good reason. It is this version that moves me the most though...it's hard to compete with steel drums and Gabriel's infectious vocals and the rhythm nd pulse of the African performers. Easily ranks at the very top of my list!
