The story

"No Self Control" is a song written and performed by the English rock musician Peter Gabriel. When writing the song, Gabriel took inspiration from minimalist music composers, particularly the work of Steve Reich. During the recording and mixing process, Hugh Padgham and Steve Lillywhite worked with Gabriel to pare back the instrumentation, resulting in a sparser feel.
