Peter Gabriel/Awesome Music
- "In Your Eyes". How can anyone NOT have included this? This is one of his best songs! And the LYRICS are so good too.
- "Sledgehammer", which in addition to being an awesome song, has an equally awesome and innovative music video that is a serious contender with Michael Jackson's "Thriller" for best music video of all time.
- And it was done by none other than Nick Park!
- "Red Rain" from the same album is also incredibly epic. Actually, So is basically a Crowning Album Of Awesome as a whole.
- "Here Comes The Flood", specifically the stripped-down, piano-only version; Gabriel was dissatisfied with the bombastic, overdone original on Car and reworked it into an absolutely beautiful song.
- "Walk Through The Fire", an awesome track from the otherwise forgettable Jeff Bridges movie Against All Odds (which also had Phil Collins on the soundtrack, whose eponymous song became a hit).
- His collaboration with electronica group Deep Forest on "While The Earth Sleeps" for the James Cameron/Kathryn Bigelow film Strange Days.
- His grand Apartheid-era dirge "Biko" is breathtaking as well. Credit where credit is due, Phil Collins does a fine job with the drums as well.
- "Out Out" from Gremlins, which was criminally underused in the movie itself.
- "When You're Falling", a collaboration with Afro-Celt Sound System.
- "Moribund The Burgermeister" An awesome tune.
