4.3 - Gabriel’s masterpiece? His vocal chops are certainly better on this than any other project of his I’ve heard (see the sustained note at 3:51 on “That Voice Again”). Kate Bush drops in for a stunning cameo on “Don’t Give Up.” The dark, roiling atmosphere of this record gets eerier towards the middle of the second half, which I don’t prefer. But, “Sledgehammer” more than makes up for it in bounce and funk — among my favorite pop songs (and music videos) of the 1980s. And though “In Your Eyes” has lost its impact as a stand-alone radio hit, it sounds stunning as the closer for this expansive, impressive album.
