Peter Gabriel released "Us" in 1992 an album in which he explored the pain of recent personal problems; his failed first marriage, and the growing distance between him and his first daughter. Singles taken from the album included "Digging in the Dirt", "Steam", "Blood of Eden", and "Kiss That Frog". Gabriel's introspection within the context of the album Us can be seen in the first single release "Digging in the Dirt" directed by John Downer. It met with less success than So, reaching No: 2 in the album chart on both sides of the Atlantic, and making modest chart impact with the singles "Digging in the Dirt" and the funkier "Steam", which evoked memories of "Sledgehammer". Gabriel followed the release of the album with a world tour and accompanying double CD and DVD Secret World Live in 1994.The album was supported by the "Secret World Live" tour, named after its ultimate track, "Secret World". The tour spawned a live album and a concert film. The album was also promoted through a first-of-its-kind interactive multimedia software released for Macintosh computers called Xplora1: Peter Gabriel's Secret World, which featured several music videos from the album. Gabriel won three more Grammy Awards, all in the Music Video category. He won the Grammy Award for Best Short Form Music Video in 1993 and 1994 for the videos to "Digging in the Dirt" and "Steam" respectively. Gabriel also won the 1996 Grammy Award for Best Long Form Music Video for his Secret World Live video.
