Hell yes! I love that song.

Genesis is definitely a favorite.

I lean more towards the Phil Collins-era Genesis, but their work with Peter Gabriel is good as well.

LOVE THEM

I probably would have never gotten into Genesis if I'd never heard that song. The synths were always so Prince-ish to me.

I liked Super Nintendo better.

Lots of love for Genesis on this thread, which I think is awesome.

That's true, there is a Prince vibe in there. I love the layering of everything in the mix-with headphones it really sets a great mood.

2 in the morning in a pitch black room with headphones-you really are taken somewhere else.

I'm mainly just thankful none of the many Linkin Park-esque bands/clones/minions of crap music have tried to remake it.

Well they ain't getting love from me. What are you fookin' kiddin' me? Genesis...

"No Reply At All"
"Missed Again"


Probably the only two songs that I like by them

Abacab is one of my all time favorite Genesis albums.. with Collins
The Lamb Lies down on broadway is a favorite with Gabriel

...and that's just because of the EWF Horns, right?

MrTation said:

LOL...yep

Dem's Ma' Boys!!.. my favorite Genesis Tracks all from their second incarnation (when Phil Collins stepped up to lead vocals, after Peter Gabriel split...):


It's Gonna Get Better
Turn It On Again
DODO/Lurker
Behind The Lines
You Might Recall
Taking It All Too Hard
Keep It Dark
No Reply At All
ABACAB
Man On The Corner
Hold On My Heart
Mama
Misunderstanding
Undertow
That's All

I agree, though -The Lamb Lies Down On Broadway is my favorite from the Gabriel period...

Abacab is the shit! Whats the deal with Misunderstanding sounding identical to Sly's "Hot Fun in the Summertime"? Did Phil and the gang ever acknowledge the similarities between the 2 songs?

Speaking of Peter Gabriel, I love the way he says, "Hi There!" in the beginning of his song "Big Time." For some reason, it always makes me laugh.

Genesis, Phil Collins and Mike and the bloody Mechanics, complete wankshite all of them. Collins is a grade-A twat. Boring MOR bollocks.

Ohhhkaay.

LOVE Genesis. I have listened to Abacab, Three Sides Live, and the Mama album on a consistant basis ever since they came out. Definitely one of my fave bands.

we are talking before peter gabriel left right? cause what was done to that band afterwards...

Genesis are absolutely fantastic. Pop/rock masterpieces like Misunderstanding, Mama, Taking It All Too Hard, hell even Illegal Alien, only come around once.

Always thought phil never got the credit he deserved when he was with them...

Yes, I'm a Genesis fan too. I think their best album is The Trick of the Tail, but that's probably because I'm a progressive rock fan too. Both Phil and Peter have their moments and I just can't say which one is better.
