BigBob Posted February 17, 2012 Share Posted February 17, 2012 I always loved listening to Genesis every since I was a little kid. My family for some reason couldn't stand Phil Collins, so I kept me admiration for Genesis in the dark. I just found out about a year ago that Peter Gabriel used to be lead singer. Since then Genesis has become one of my favorite bands! So what's some of your favorite Genesis Songs? Here's some of mine in no particular order: Keep it Dark Me and Sara Jane Follow You Follow Me I can't Dance Supper's Ready (both Studio and Seconds out version) Firth of Fith "In the cage" melody from 3 sides live Musical Box Abacab They've got such a big catalog of songs, so let's hear some yours Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been listening to Second's Out and Three Sides Live a lot lately. "Squonk," "Robbery Assault And Battery," "Afterglow," "Turn It On Again" and the "In The Cage" medley command a lot of attention. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Abacab was their first Genesis album I ever bought. I remember the fist time I listened to that and was like wow! I never heard anything like that before. It was like a brand new sound for me!
