Tragic Love In The 80s: 'In Your Eyes' by Peter Gabriel (1986)

This week's Tragic Love In The 80s track goes to British singer/songwriter/musician Peter Gabriel and his 1986 release In Your Eyes. Peter Gabriel was one of the founding member of progressive rock group Genesis and he also had a successful solo-career. In Your Eyes was released in 1986 on Gabriel's So album, which was his 5th studio album. In Your Eyes reached #1 on the Billboard Mainstream Rock Tracks and #26 on the Billboard Hot 100 in 1986 and I specifically remember this song being featured on the soundtrack of the 1989 Cameron Crowe film of Say Anything.
