Solsbury Hill

Written by Peter Gabriel about a spiritual experience atop Solsbury Hill in Somerset after his departure from Genesis, this 1977 debut solo single peaked at number 13 in the UK and reached number 68 on the Billboard Hot 100. Gabriel described the song's meaning as being about "letting go" and being prepared to lose what you have for what you might get.
