Peter Gabriel, "The Book of Love" (Magnetic Fields cover)

Another one brought on by Mike's and Morgan's wedding, here's Peter Gabriel covering the Magnetic Fields' song for his album Scratch My Back.  Maura and I were fortunate to witness Gabriel's show last year at Radio City Music Hall, the first half of which was a performance of the album in its entirety... with a 52-piece orchestra. It was fantastic, especially this song.

  1. this song is featured in the Scrubs series finale (the last official scrubs episode, before the "new" show began) and i just saw that episode again the other weekend. as jd was thinking of his many years at sacred heart and what his future holds, they played this song during a montage. and i began to think of my almost 9 years here in nyc...so this song reminds me of that. it's a great song, but makes me very sad.
