re: Peter Gabriel - Up

While it may stand out in a lackluster year, it is, imho, good but not that good. Many of the songs just seems to meander aimlessly for 6 or 7 minutes when they would have done well to end at 4. I have several friends who are also diehard Gabriel fans and they agree....one of them commented that it was almost as if Up was a soundtrack to some imaginary film.
