Peter Gabriel is one of the only artists in which my tastes intersect with my parents. My appreciation for his music wasn’t all due to their influence; the movie Say Anything… became a favorite of mine somewhere between middle school and high school. Naturally I was a fan of the iconic scene in which the character Lloyd Dobler holds a boombox playing “In Your Eyes” outside of Diane Court’s bedroom window. I bought this particular t-shirt off a website that promoted the work of independent artists, at a moment when I spent most of my time listening to music off of an iPod. I appreciated the commentary on modern society, though I’m not sure at the time I appreciated how ephemeral it all was.
