One happy family living in Chardon, OH. Also, the band Erised's twitter. We are very economical with our Twitter accounts. They don't grow on trees after all...
So,
so you think you can tell
Heaven from Hell,
blue skies from pain
Can you tell a green field
from a cold steel rail?
A smile from a veil?
Do you think you can tell?
Did they get you to trade
your heroes for ghosts?
Hot ashes for trees?
Hot air for a cool breeze?
Cold comfort for change?
Did you exchange
A walk-on part in the war
for a lead role in a cage?
How I wish,
how I wish you were here
We're just two lost souls
swimming in a fishbowl,
year after year
Running over the same old ground
What have we found?
The same old fears
Wish you were here
The grass was greener
The light was brighter
The taste was sweeter
The nights of wonder
With friends surrounded
The dawn mist glowing
The water flowing
The endless river
Forever and ever

“Sledgehammer” is the biggest hit of Peter Gabriel’s solo career and his only #1 single on the Billboard Hot 100 (1986). Its revolutionary music video, directed by Stephen R. Johnson, featured groundbreaking stop-motion, claymation, and pixilation work by Aardman Animations (the Wallace & Gromit studio) and the Brothers Quay.
Gabriel spent a grueling 16 hours lying motionless under a glass plate while animators worked frame-by-frame around him. The entire shoot was an exhausting, week-long production. The result? It won a record 9 awards at the 1987 MTV Video Music Awards (including Video of the Year) and remains the most played music video in MTV history.
