"And Still" is a song by English musician Peter Gabriel, initially released on 28 October 2023 as the eleventh single in promotion of his tenth studio album I/O. It is the longest track on the album, clocking in at nearly eight minutes. According to Gabriel, the song is written for his parents. Elaborating on this in a press release, Gabriel stated:
"I wrote a song for my dad a number of years back, which I was actually able to play him, which was 'Father, Son'. When my mum died, I wanted to do something for her, but it's taken a while before I felt comfortable and distant enough to be able to write something. I was trying also to write a little bit in the style of the music that my parents responded to, so I think there is some music from the 40s probably that had an influence on the song. In the middle I wanted to write my mum a beautiful melody. She loved classical music, so we have a beautiful cello playing there. It took a while to get that right, it can't be too emotional or too underplayed, but I think we got there in the end."
"This Is Home" is a song by English musician Peter Gabriel, released on 29 September 2023 as the tenth single in promotion of his tenth studio album I/O.
