Big Time is a track from Peter Gabriel's 1986 album So, and its opening greeting has become a small, recognisable piece of the song in its own right. Lifted from the very start of the recording, the short hello circulates on soundboards as a standalone greeting rather than a full musical excerpt. Creators reuse it because it is instantly friendly and needs no explanation, making it a handy opener for introductions, reactions and light-hearted edits. Its staying power comes from that simplicity: a famous voice, a direct hello, and a beat that follows immediately.

The short Hi there greeting from the opening of Peter Gabriel's Big Time, used as a punchy intro or reveal in short videos, memes and edits.
This clip captures the brief spoken greeting that opens Peter Gabriel's Big Time, delivered in a warm, upbeat tone that lands instantly before the song's driving rhythm takes over. It is barely a second long, but its friendly, slightly cheeky energy makes it feel like a direct hello to the listener, almost as if someone has just walked into the room. That immediacy is why it works so well outside the song: it grabs attention without needing any context, sets a playful mood, and gives an edit a human starting point before a joke, reveal, or cut to the action.
