Peter Gabriel - Playing For Time (Dark-Side Mix)

Музыка

Playing For Time (Dark-Side Mix) by Peter Gabriel, released on the full moon of 7 March 2023. The third song to be revealed from the album i/o.
The Dark-Side Mix is by Tchad Blake and the track is accompanied by a cover image featuring the work of visual artist Annette Messager.
Listen: lnk.to/PG21
Written and produced by Peter Gabriel, Playing For Time was recorded at Real World Studios in Wiltshire and The Beehive in London, and features Tom Cawley on piano. The orchestral arrangement, by Ed Shearmur, was recorded at British Grove Studios in London with a number of players who previously featured in the New Blood Orchestra.
‘Playing For Time is a song that I have been working on for a long time and have performed live, without lyrics, so some people may be familiar with it. It’s been an important song for me. It's about time, mortality and memories and the idea that each of us has a planet full of memories which get stashed inside the brain.
It is more of a personal song about how you assemble memories and whether we are prisoners of time or whether that is something that can actually free us. I do think it’s good to push yourself towards more bold or interesting experiences because then you will have richer memories to feed you when you get to my age. You also get taught by every meaningful experience that you go through.’
The presence of Tom Cawley on piano and Ed Shearmur’s arrangement, provide nice touch-points with Gabriel’s previous work. Cawley, having played piano on the New Blood Tour, was an obvious choice, ‘even though I performed and played piano live quite a lot I felt that this was something that I could get a real piano player in for and Tom Cawley is a brilliant musician.’ The connection to Ed Shearmur goes even further back;
‘I thought back to That’ll Do, the Randy Newman song that I sang, and Ed Shearmur had done a beautiful arrangement on that and I thought that maybe that sort of thing would really suit this song well, so we managed to track Ed down again. When I first heard the demos it brought a tear to the eye because I felt so much emotion in it, particularly at the end. That was definitely what I wanted to try and do with this song, to give that emotional journey. It means a lot to me.’
Gabriel’s thoughts about time were, in part, influenced by the work of the Long Now Foundation, and Danny Hillis’s extraordinary invention, The 10,000 Year Clock, which is an idea designed to try and encourage us to think long-term. ‘I’m sure that if we have a chance of surviving the existential problems that we now face we have to start thinking much bigger and longer to make some real headway. So, I think what they do is enormously valuable and there are some amazing talks on their website, so for those that want a deep dive into the role of time and long-term thinking, the Long Now Foundation is a wonderful place to start.’
Just like the two previous full moon releases, Playing For Time will come with differing mix approaches from Tchad Blake (Dark-Side Mix), Mark ‘Spike’ Stent (Bright-Side Mix) and Hans-Martin Buff’s Atmos In-Side Mix.
The artwork that accompanies this month’s release is by visual artist Annette Messager, whose work Gabriel has long been an admirer of.
I’d seen the work of Annette Messager, who is a wonderful artist, many years ago and nearly got her involved in the Art from Us project, but this time I thought she’d be exactly the right person to ask to do something for this song.
Annette has been a real pioneering sculptor and, if you look at the breadth of her work, you’ll find that she has influenced quite a few younger artists working today. It’s wonderful that she wanted to get involved. I strongly recommend you check out her work, it is full of life, even though a lot of it has death and memory at its heart.

    I am really afraid of the day, that Peter Gabriel will leave this world behind. His music is at my side since I was a little boy. It helps me thru the decades of suffering isolation and depression. Since I am 8 years old. Some of his songs literally saved my life countless times. I dont know, how this little bastard always managed it to get so deep into my soul for decades, but only to release and to heal and to hold me up. And I am thankfull for his music. It is like a very gentle and peacfull angel that always walks one step behind on my side. Now I am 50 years old. Music can save lifes. Gabriels music did this for years very well. Thanks Mr. Gabriel.

    Playing for Time (Dark-Side Mix) Lyrics Far, far away Out amongst the stars There’s a planet spinning slowly We call it ours Any time, any day Any moment that we bring to life Will never fade away Oh, oh the moments come and go While the memories ebb and flow Play again, play again Oh, there’s a hill that we must climb Climb toward the mist of time It’s all in here what we’ve been through Down, I’m getting it down Sorting it out So everything I care about Is held in here All of those I love inside Everybody’s playing for time You and I still playing for time Thеre goes the sun Back from whеre it came The young move to the centre The mom and dad, the frame Any space, any time Any moment that we bring to life Ridiculous, sublime Oh, oh the moments come and go While the memories ebb and flow Play again, play again Oh, there’s a hill that we must climb Climb toward these mists of time It’s all in here what we’ve been through Down, getting it down Sorting it out So everything I care about Is held in here All of those I love inside Oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-ooh Oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-ooh The future shines a sunny day Unpacked memories stored away All the while, the clock keeps ticking You and I still playing for time One by one the voices silenced For they know that time will tell It’s time that wears the crown And time that rings the bell All cards on the table All hands are down Everybody’s playing for time Everyone’s still playing for time Looking for a flicker in the face of the clock Hidden in the mountain, in the body of the rock No one seems to notice or to feel the aftershock They’re all too busy playing for time Everybody’s playing for time You and I still playing for time

These songs are far better than that. This song in particular is reminding me of a Randy Newman influence and I haven't heard that out of Gabriel since Scratch. This isn't the first time that i/o has brought me to Scratch. I haven't seen anybody else mention that but that's where I've ended up, at least twice so far, which makes me very, VERY f%#king happy. 👍😎

In many words: some unusual jazzy chords on the piano in the beginning, then his charismatic powerful voice in the chorus and finally a rock & classic orchestration, with some deep lyrics = it's really a majestic hymn for his new album "I/O".

    I have just finished listening to Peter's new song 'Playing For Time', and without a doubt this is a genuinely great new song, easily his best song in thirty years. It is very beautiful, deeply moving, poignant, and full of heart. Gabriel's voice for a 73'year old is truly magnificent on this song. He sounds like a 30 year old man at the peak of his singing powers. Both the song, its lyrics, it's orchestral arrangement, and his voice are a triumph. Peter Gabriel has yet again written a masterpiece. Thanks so much Peter. Jonathan Barry, artist and author, Clontarf, Dublin, Ireland.

    ​@@eltonmayo2027 not exactly. It strings some similar notes to here comes the flood but the theme is quite different. More spiritual as he stripped the Christian religious influence from the song (if you mean to compare with here comes the flood). And then you notice the optimism and uplifting endnote that is typical for Peter and was heard throughout genesis quite clearly. There is no flood here, literally. There is no doomsday in this song, no reset if anything it's an ebb and flow of memories hinting at the eternal that lies within the ticking off the clock.

    Ironically, Peter is virtually timeless. Such a sweet, gentle, authentic soul. Conjures up memories of Sandy Denny's "Where has the time gone". Heartwrenching, yet beautiful. Long live PG!

    I’ve listened to all 3 mixes. THIS is my favorite. There is a very subtle echo effect to Peter’s voice on the last third where the drums come in…it’s an effect I don’t think I’ve heard on previous songs or albums. Especially in the “looking for a flicker” line onward…it sounds corny, but I tingle when I hear that echo.
