Now that PG has released I/O, I wondered what songs would I put on a new Peter Gabriel "Best Of" album. Here are the 30 I came up with.

DISC 1

1. Sledgehammer
2. Games Without Frontiers
3. Solsbury Hill
4. In Your Eyes
5. Digging In The Dirt
6. Don't Give Up
7. Steam
8. Down To Earth
9. Red Rain
10. I/O (Bright Side)
11. Shock The Monkey
12. Big Time
13. Kiss That Frog
14. Lovetown
15. Biko

DISC 2

1. Modern Love
2. D.I.Y.
3. No Self Control
4. I Have The Touch
5. This Is The Picture (Excellent Birds)
6. Blood Of Eden
7. More Than This
8. Olive Tree (Bright Side)
9. And Through The Wire
10. That Voice Again
11. San Jacinto
12. A Wonderful Day In A One Way World
13. Walk Through The Fire
14. Shaking The Tree
15. Downside Up

I feel these would be the thirty best songs to put on a best of album as they provide the best range of Peter Gabriel's works. There is a good mix of his popular stuff, his movie soundtrack work, his experimentation with world music, his earlier Genesis-esque stuff and his newer more emotionally charged stuff.

What would you put on yours?
