I really enjoyed singing this one, particularly the end, and I think the band had a good time playing it too. You can hear some wonderful performances from all the band. It was really a fun thing to create.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I\u2019ve always been fascinated by explorations of consciousness and attempts to understand from where it originated, along with all the recent investigations into animal and plant sentience. In some ways it\u2019s about opening up the mind and stepping inside to understand a little more of ourselves and the world we live in with the hope that we respond a little more responsibly and compassionately.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>As he did with 2023&#8217;s <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" data-analytics-id=\"inline-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.loudersound.com\/reviews\/peter-gabriels-io-the-world-has-changed-since-2002-mostly-for-the-worst-but-its-a-better-place-with-io-in-it\" data-url=\"https:\/\/www.loudersound.com\/reviews\/peter-gabriels-io-the-world-has-changed-since-2002-mostly-for-the-worst-but-its-a-better-place-with-io-in-it\" data-hl-processed=\"none\" data-mrf-recirculation=\"inline-link\" data-before-rewrite-localise=\"https:\/\/www.loudersound.com\/reviews\/peter-gabriels-io-the-world-has-changed-since-2002-mostly-for-the-worst-but-its-a-better-place-with-io-in-it\"><em>i\/o<\/em><\/a><em> <\/em>album, Gabriel is releasing a new single with every full moon, building up to a full album release later in the year.
