Some of the beatiful, rhapsodic comments on youtube for Peter Gabriel's Soundtrack for Last Temptation of Christ.. the comments are uniformly positive...

Peter Gabriel - Passion ( The Last Temptation of Christ) (Full Album)
Scorsese's adaptation of Nikos Kazantzakis novel is one of those rare cinematic experiences you come away from feeling intrinsically changed in some way, your emotions tapped by a profound realization of the terrible cruelty of man juxtaposed against the intense beauty and majesty of the experience of life. Gabriel's score grabs the viewer from the onset and doesn't relent until the tears flow... at least that was the case in my experience.... and I'm not a particularly religious individual.
That Jesus was a man first and foremost I have no doubt, that he was gifted with the remarkable ability to raise the consciousness of those around him and of all mankind is also evident.
In any case, I view this film as one of Scorsese's masterpieces... a testament to his cinema genius.

Never in the history of music, did a song capture the glorious victory of Christ over death like "It is acomplished". God bless you for posting this album. ;)
Not to be an over enthusiastic Oliver, but this is one of the greatest albums of all time. The power, mystery and glory of the ancient world captured beautifully and perfectly in musical form!
