Шаблон:About Шаблон:Infobox song
"Blood of Eden" is the third single from English rock musician Peter Gabriel's 1992 album Us, featuring backing vocals by Sinéad O'Connor. It narrowly failed to enter the UK top 40, peaking at number 43.
The single has two B-side tracks: A remix of "Mercy Street" (originally from Gabriel's previous studio album So, released in 1986) by William Orbit and an earlier version of the a-side. This version had originally appeared in the Wim Wenders film Until the End of the World (1991) but was not included on the official soundtrack.
The female vocal part of the song was performed on the 1993–1994 Secret World Tour first by British musician Joy Askew, then by Sinéad O'Connor for a few months, and finally by American singer-songwriter Paula Cole. Cole's duet with Gabriel was released on both the Secret World Live album, as well as on the Secret World Live concert film.
In 2011, Gabriel re-released the song with orchestral background on the album New Blood.
