Background [edit]

The idea behind the Scratch My Back project is a song exchange where each creative person would cover one of Gabriel'south songs in return for his roofing one of theirs; the other artists' renditions of Gabriel's songs were to appear on an album entitled I'll Scratch Yours.[17] Initially planned to be released simultaneously with Scratch My Back in 2010, several artists were late in delivering their songs or ultimately declined to participate, necessitating changes to the companion album's concept. With several new artists aboard, the slightly retitled And I'll Scratch Yours was released in September 2013.

According to Gabriel, although he and arranger John Metcalfe had talked about Arvo Pärt and Steve Reich equally inspiration, it was the work that Metcalfe did on "Heroes" that "gave us the confidence to be bold in the way in which we were going to approach the tape."[18] "Heroes" became the opening track because "without any of the drive of guitar and drums...it builds an enormous tension that bursts open up."[18]

If you're going to reinterpret something, then really do something. Smash your colours to the mast and say, 'This is different, and it isn't everybody'due south cup of tea.

Stephin Merritt, who wrote "The Book of Love", commented on Gabriel's encompass of his vocal:

At outset I thought, "How hilarious, he's got a completely different take on the song." But after a few listens I discover it quite sweet. My version of the vocal focuses on the humor, and his focuses on the pathos. Of course, if I could sing like him I wouldn't accept to be a humourist.[19]

Gabriel's comprehend of "The Volume of Love" appeared earlier in the 2004 film Shall Nosotros Trip the light fantastic toe?, on the series Scrubs in the season eight finale episode entitled "My Finale," and South Park season 19 episode "Tweek x Craig."

Scratch My Dorsum was album of the calendar month in the March 2010 issue of Mojo. Reviewer Mat Snow writes: "He [Gabriel] and his top-of-the-range collaborators (...) accept created an anthology of not bad insight into the untapped potential of familiar songs, a profound re-imagining fabricated manifest in an orchestral soundworld as rich and thrilling every bit ever recorded at Air (...)". He gave special mention to the reinterpretations of David Bowie'due south "Heroes" ("the vocal'south underlying despair rises to the top"), Paul Simon's "The Boy in the Bubble" ("the vocal information technology might accept been had not the writer been so adamant in 1986 to bring the joys of S African township jive to the Western pop charts") and Talking Heads' "Listening Wind" ("Gabriel shines a soft light into the song'south inner pathos"). On the downside Snow describes the version of Lou Reed's "The Ability of the Heart" as "a misstep" and Randy Newman's "I Call back It's Going to Rain Today" as "superfluous".

In Metro, Arwa Haider awarded the album 3 stars out of five and commented: "Its about impressive quality is sensitivity; these are elegant orchestral arrangements … It'southward sporadically successful; Gabriel saps the life from Paul Simon'south The Boy in the Bubble and somehow over-eggs Arcade Fire's My Body Is a Cage" and concluded "this is exceptionally classy karaoke."[44]
