ReviewsRanked #46 in Mojo's "The 50 Best Albums Of 2010" -- "His covers projects tapped four decades of the power of love and transformation...", 4 stars out of 5 -- "Perhaps the most effective retread is Talking Heads' 'Listening Wind': Gabriel removes the funk, parks the dance, and leaves the words to do the work....It sounds like a timeless song, written yesterday.", "Each song is transformed into an arty dirge using only his voice and an understated orchestra....A nicely melancholy suite." -- Grade: B, "He treats David Bowie's 'Heroes' with shimmering strings and Paul Simon's 'Boy in the Bubble' as a mellow piano ballad.", "This imaginatively selected and sequenced collection achieves such a haunting consistency of tone that its spell lingers..."

Additional InformationThe first half of a two-part project where Gabriel covers songs from 12 different artists who then record their own versions of Gabriel's compositions.

Emotional and beautiful renditions
Peter Gabriel’s voice with a striped back, minimalist orchestra is a joy to hear, and most of these covers bring something new to these songs in Gabriel’s hands, showcasing the lyrics and emotions very well.
