* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ca-cyvU8P04 "Four Kinds of Horses"]], the fifth single off of the upcoming album ''i/o'', is a slow-burning, yet heavy-hitting piece of symphonic rock whose dense arrangements and poetic lyrics obliquely based on the psychology of terrorism are sure to captivate the listener. While the release model and showcased material for ''i/o'' were initially met with skepticism among a number of older Gabriel fans, "Four Kinds of Horses" was very well received even by them, with many regarding it as one of the best songs Gabriel put out since the '80s.

* The eerie, disorienting [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dFBCTMJSrHQ "The Tower That Ate People"]] from the 2000 sci-fi film ''Film/RedPlanet'' shows that Gabriel's creative prowess is as strong as ever in the new Millennium; the typically offbeat lyrics are just now married to a wider array of studio wizardry.

* ''Melt'' is another candidate for an Album of Awesome. This is where Gabriel found his legs as a solo artist. The intro alone to the opening track, "Intruder," is astonishing, with the gated reverb on the drums that became ubiquitous throughout the decade. Steve Lilywhite's production highlights the paranoid tone of the songs.
