Product description

Gabriel,Peter ~ Birdy Soundtrack

Amazon.com

On Birdy, Peter Gabriel plunges headlong into the experimental moods and ambient textures he'd been toying with for more than a decade. It's a vibrant and absorbing effort. Though still falling back on snippets from his previous work, the compositions here give clear signs of a maturing taste for the non-Western instrumental concepts and tonal resonance that would later explode with 1989's Passion. The quiet pulse and lush production that open the foreboding "At Night" pulls strange splashes of melody into "Floating Dogs." The track then metamorphoses into a series of tribal rhythms and sinewy, melting minor-key chords. While the record is a departure, some of the best material here reworks thematic elements from past recordings. The use of "Not One of Us" from Peter Gabriel (third album) makes "Birdy's Flight" a standout, providing a midrecord burst of jolting, propulsive prog-rock before turning back into the surreal and trancelike mist. An engrossing and atmospheric dreamscape. --Matthew Cooke

La bande son d'un film culte par un musicien de légende: Peter Gabriel.

Reviewed in the United States on October 23, 2012

Verified Purchase

Ma future (et encore actuelle) épouse et moi, nous sommes allés voir ce film au cinéma dans les années 80. Enfant, je rêvais de m'envoler, de me mouvoir librement dans le ciel. Âgé à présent d'une cinquantaine d'années, les oiseaux connaissent bien notre jardin où, chaque jour, miettes de pain, graines ou autres gâteries les attendent.
Le film romance ce thème et y greffe la problématique de l'horreur des guerres, toutes horribles, et des dégâts irréparables que subissent bon nombre de soldats qui en reviennent. Je veux croire en la possibilité d'un monde meilleur, optimiste, offrant à chacun le droit de vivre une "VIE ORDINAIRE", un monde où l'on puisse vivre en paix.
La musique de ce film, créée par Peter Gabriel, ancien chanteur et leader du groupe culte GENESIS dans sa première période, est fortement influencée par son intérêt pour la musique africaine et le métissage des mentalités. On y trouve donc beaucoup de percussions et quelques versions instrumentales de certaines de ses chansons.
Mes albums préférés de GENESIS sont "Sailing England by the Pound" (avec Peter Gabriel) et "A Trick of the Tail" (juste après son départ du groupe). L'album de Peter Gabriel que je préfère est, sans hésiter, son troisième, contenant les fameux morceaux "No Self-Control" et "Biko", la célèbre chanson anti-apartheid.
Aux côtés de Nelson Mandela, Desmond Tutu, Sting, Paul Simon, George Harrison, et d'autres, Peter Gabriel fait partie de ceux qui ont voulu faire évoluer l'être humain vers plus de justice, d'imagination et d'Humanité.

Good soundtrack, but overshadowed by the future.

Reviewed in the United States on March 17, 2005

Peter Gabriel's "Birdy" soundtrack is a delicate, quiet, and moody piece. Five of the tracks are recycled-- mixes and/or edits of material from "Peter Gabriel 3" and "Security", and seven of the tracks are brand new.

The material that's recycled is in many cases quite interesting-- the delicate piano line from "Family Snapshot" (titled "Close Up" here) is lovely by itself, and both "Birdy's Flight" (from "Not One of Us") and "The Heat" (from "The Rhythm of the Heat") stand nicely on tehir own.

Of the new tracks, most of them are haunting and of a delicate beauty ("Slow Water", "Dressing the Wound", "Slow Marimbas"). Its really all quite good, pretty stuff.

But I did only give it three stars, and largely for two reasons. First, I don't really feel any emotional content or attachment to this music-- instrumental music, particularly of an ambient or minimalist vein (as much of this is) is often very hard to convey emotion, and I don't think this succeeds in all cases. The power, for me, behind much of Gabriel's music has always been the severely high emotional investment into his pieces he puts. This is quite unlike his more famous soundtrack to "The Last Temptation of Christ", an album titled "Passion". In fact, "Passion" is quite the other reason that I rated this only three stars-- "Passion" is so stunningly good and by the same composer that invariably, I find myself comparing them, and very few soundtracks can hold up to that one.

So perhaps my rating is unfair, but when I want great instrumental music and Peter Gabriel's style, I don't grab this album.

Totally biased

And I admit it. Read the novel, saw the film, enjoyed both. Realize Gabriel's music wasn't actually written for this film but cobbled together from other, prior works for the "soundtrack." At any rate, there are some very moving tracks in this album, especially for people who are tired of mainstream soundtracks. Best advice is to simply sample the tracks on Amazon and see if it floats your boat.

Peter Gabriel's BEST

Reviewed in the United States on March 11, 2009

Verified Purchase

Certainly the most obscure and unknown of the great, former/original [before Phil Collins] vocalist for '70's/80's progressive rock group, Genesis. Virtually no singing, but some vocalizing. Superb "background" music. I found this back in the late '80's, as a cassette tape, in a grocery store, and have loved it ever since. Favorite tracks? "At Night", "Floating Dogs", "The Heat" and "Slow Water." All tracks flow together, so it's difficult to identify each selection as a separate part.

Awesome instrumental work from Peter Gabriel. Great space out/ambient sound. Tracks derived from his older songs are neat to hear if you're a big fan.

True Sound Soundtrack

Reviewed in the United States on May 29, 2022

While using themes from previous two LPs, (this is what Alan Parker was looking for) Gabriel delivers a true soundtrack. No industry pandering here. All sounds are geared to the image and film. A masterpiece in mood and accent.

Atmospheric

Reviewed in Australia on June 12, 2021

Verified Purchase

Totally instrumental soundtrack to the film 'Birdy' has 'Peter Gabriel' mining his source tapes in his studio and freely plundering some sounds which would appear on his commercial albums.

Probably, one of the most innovative and adventurous musicians of his time he is also honest in adding the source to the film titles.

Australia had 'Not Drowning Waving' and 'The Church' who would explore similar avenues of expressions with 'Proof' and 'Bastard Universe' respectively.

Should either of those appeal to your taste then Gabriel's film score will also appeal.

Fairly short at around 35 minutes it is, nonetheless, a very interesting listen but obviously, like all film music, it works better when married to the vision.

Peter Gabrielのもうひとつの楽しみ方

Reviewed in Japan on November 15, 2016

Peter Gabrielはアルバム、Passionで「バックグラウンド・ヴォーカルに挑戦した」と、あるところで記している。

本アルバムはその元になった、自身の4（Security）などからの曲を「演／伴奏」を前面に出し、自らのヴォーカルを「後ろ」に引いた作品。2枚のアルバムは何もサウンドトラック。Peterの曲の素晴らしさが再認識できるアルバムの最初のもの。

Gabriel like chocolate (starts black and bitter, turning mellow, and finishing with total invigouration). Taste it...

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on December 8, 2015

Verified Purchase

A stunning piece of creative genius. Worked around the film with Matthew Modine and a very young Nicholas Cage. The CD mirrors the story of the damaged young soldiers, returning but never leaving their theatre of war. The music to the flight scene echoes all the way through Gabriel's musical career from the album So, all the way to Ovo. A story of love and friendship triumphing over darkness, put musically, this is simply astounding. Try it and fly with him!
