How many frogs have you kissed?

Review Score: (10/10)
I have been a fan of Peter Gabriel since "Shock The Monkey". I love this album. Every track is superb with a big sound, above-average engineering, and haunting lyrics.

My favorite track is "Steam". Peter can be laid back and ethereal and he can really get into the groove. "Steam" is very much in my groove. As is "Digging In The Dirt". That one is really funky.

I also really like "Secret World" and "Kiss That Frog". Haven't we all kissed at least one frog? But all the tracks are great. This album is a good listen throughout.

One of the reviewers above mentioned "songs with a cold wind blowing through them" and I think that is an accurate description of Peter's music. It is global and haunting. I think that haunting quality is what has made a lasting fan. His music is capable of bringing you in touch with your spirituality.
