#153
DON’T GIVE UP
“…For every job,
so many men.
So many men
No-one needs...”
The teaming of Peter Gabriel with Kate Bush is a rare treat. The former's lyrics find a man at his lowest point. His struggle to gain employment has been in vain. His woman keeps encouraging him to not surrender to despair.
The duet was lifted as a single off Gabriel's 'So' album in 1986. It reached the Top 10 in Britain and Australia.
As
new songs are covered on this blog, a definitive version will be added to a
spotify playlist. Find it and the other Caffé Latté playlists at:
