tries to isolate your mind and to give attention to his music and the feelings this sound give you..the singer is still alive and health,nor even old...but it seems to me he was singing 1000 years ago..
What happened to the music?..it's following a world really ugly?But..when the world was nice...in the Neanderthal time,perhaps...i don't think the world was better in the past...perhaps the magic made the things more interesting.. maybe we need another stone-age?
i have been restless since i have seen this. i have listened to Genesis since high school and have seen them live but this performance is different from all the others. i saw it three days ago and cant get it out of my head. just like the first time i had a crush on a girl. oh well maybe i an gay... lol

Since I heard this song at first time, in 1973, I considered it a spacetrip without a spacecraft, that time I didnt understand the lyrics, because I didnt speak english, but this condition didnt make any difference for my sensations. Almost 40 years passed, now I speak and understand english, but I continue to feel the same sensation, mistery and magic sounds in a good vibration song with nonsense lyrics. Whatever! I like this song.
Did you know that of all early Genesis' early songs, this is one song that Peter Gabriel grew to dislike and ultimately became bored of singing - he thought it too repetitive and simple.

Poor Phil Collins - he claimed later that he had no idea what these songs were about - public schoolboy nonsense, he thought. The fact is, that he took part, drummed brilliantly and helped Genesis become the greatest of all time. I hate it when artists look back and denigrate their past endeavours that got them where they are today. John Cleese does the same with Monty Python, feigning that it was all silly nonsense. In fact it was very clever nonsense - that's why we loved it and still do!
@Kristopful you bet. i'm fifteen and listening to genesis for five months. i play drums, phil's my new favorite. he didn't just play, he composed rhythms.
I praticaly ignored this song (as it was released as a single) but it's an incredible fun song...stupid of me looking back. They had a hit with this & then became a mega-band, which was good. But when the money started flowing the band lost some of it's early innovation & edge. It's a pity, but it seems to happen to most bands who start to become successful in a big way.
During this video, an advertisement poped up that read "Peter Gabriel, new album, out now!". Also, the advertisement next to the video was for the new Pink Floyd box set. PROG IS NOT DEAD!

@aadamjacobs .. I think Peter says "It's knocking off time for the Cosmic Lawnmower" .. sounds like "Snackin aff time", cos he's says it in a West Country accent!
16 yrs old and going nowhere. Music taste edited by the TV of the day. I left my mates in the city one night and went home early, the bus home was packed with students after a binge and i had to stand up (I fought gravity as long as i could) It was a relief to get off for a piss, (I actually christened the Church that christened me!!) I walked past an open front door and stopped to hear what music was on. It was this song. I was invited in after being recognised, and my new life began.
@lycialive I was a child of the 90's and my life wouldn't be complete or as rich without Genesis. Seriously, as a musician, Peter Gabriel is my greatest inspiration. He is an artist, and that's what we need more of, and less of this commercial shit we have now. We need more bands like Rush, Genesis, Zep, Sabbath, Coheed and Cambria, more bands that have their own sound, and less radio rock.

I thank my mother and father for giving me Led Zeppelin as a child; I think my mother was on the right track when she burned that CD with Solsbury Hill on it.
As I listened to that song on youtube, one Suummer night about three years ago, I discovered... this video.
From that day on, I dance with my hands on my hips, looking either direction, and jumping up and down.
I won't brag, but for a thirteen year old, I'm so happy that my parents granted me real music.
@TheOneEyedHound Oh, how I wish there were more people like you. I'm 14, I probably have the same passion for Genesis and good old bands like Rush, Zeppelin, and Yes that you do...I wish there were more young kids like us that appreciate this music and not the shit that we're 'supposed' to like. >.>
70s was the best time on music , today only very poor clones with no soul , the record companies is who killed the good music , progressive , hard rock and the classic heavy metal .
@echoesroll You hit the nail on the head bro. Nobody takes the time to learn their instrument or write a song with any thing interesting in it. It's not an art form any more, or a way to get people thinking. It's all about how many unit's can we sell, or how many download's. Fuck man, I learned everything I need to know from 70's music. Don't trust government, question everything, be true to yourself, party lot's, and don't take shit from nobody. And listen to Genesis..... of course, and Rush.
@ianabroad You made my day by posting this.I have been a fan of Genesis ever since I first put on my brother's 45" record of "Selling England by the pound" I love Genesis whit all the original members were together. And I never thought that I would see such a wonderful performance from a band that always made me wish I would have been born a few years earlier so I could of been able to witness the magic live. You made a grown man cry! lol!
and now we'd like to take you a little further westward, agriculturally speaking, to where the sweet smell of freshly mowed grass pervades our hairy nostrils. it's [??] time for the cosmic lawnmower.
@cameronobscura22 Yes, we do know. Tony Banks is the art-prog-rock genius behind Genesis. Tony Smith, Steve, Phil, and Mike have stated that Tony is the true creative soul of Genesis. Tony Smith even stated in the 2007 documentary "Come Rain or Shine" that "When it comes to Tony Banks, Genesis was his solo career." Firth of Fifth, Apocalypse in 9/8, Watcher of the Skies, the finale of The Musical Box, the second section of Cinema Show, and After the Ordeal were mainly penned by Banks.
@SynthOrgan.. be that as it may, listening to Gabriel's solo albums vs. 'post PG Genesis'.. there's no comparison. Tony Banks was also in the crappy Genesis. I dunno.. maybe it was the '80's. Strangely enough,that point is illustrated in American Psycho.. he's a greedy 80's douchebag who doesn't understand the 70's Genesis, but goes into this monologue about how great the 'new' Genesis is.. especially Tony Banks. So, uh.. maybe it's on Youtube.
@cameronobscura22 Peter Gabriel is my favorite solo artist, and I love his first album, but remember, it had some straight rock tracks such as Modern Love, and Slowburn, as well as that awful (yet clever) Excuse Me. At the same time Genesis was performing post PG songs such as Dance on a Volcano, Ripples, Mad Man Moon, Los Endos, and Entangled. These four tracks were more prog and complex than anything on PG1. PG2 was punk with DIY and On The Air. "So" was as poppy as I.T. with Big Time and SH.
@SynthOrgan.. Wow.. you know your Genesis, my friend. As taste is subjective, I'm not going to get into a pissing match over old Genesis vs. New(er) Genesis. I will tip my hat (showing off my new Peter Gabriel fucked up haircut) and tell you to keep reaching for the stars.
@cameronobscura22 Genesis is what made me decide to become a musician. I'm a hardcore (but not obsessive) Genesis fan. Don't worry, I have no intention of starting a pissing match. I love all their albums equally. You reach for the stars too. Cheers!
when i was a kid growing up in the early 80s. i only knew of the phil collins/ Genesis era. and once i saw a behind the music on genesis, and i found out that peter gabriel was the origonal singer. and that they were more gothic and punk then the catchy pop songs of 80s.. it totaly blew my mind. cause ive had a listen to both eras and they both stand out on there own.

I thnk what he did to his hair is so cool! But i seem to never hear anyone talk about it. Like in their interviews or anything i dont know anything about it! Can anyone give me some information about his haircut and why he did and all that good stuff :)
@rocker70sman the hair was just to be excedingly strange as far as i know. but the costumes were supposed to represent meanings of certain songs. For instance their 22 minute epic, supper's ready contains many stories, he changeg outfits like 3 or 4 times in that song sometimes i believe.

I am absolutely bewildered by the way that Gabriel has sung such a undefinable message to me: "keep you mowing-blades sharp". Is it do what you like in life? This airy-englishness that commes out is undescribable, and somehow the music itself is not that complicated and over decorated. maybe the sitar/guitar which Hackett plays ( which is the same that Howe plays in Close to the edge, funnily enough ), which has that repeating pattern... just a feast for my imagination.
@chotchcas guess u never saw bowie, or iggy pop, or bauhaus or a million other artists who helped keep the heartbeat of rock and real music composition and performing alive.
The rest of the band look like they're thinking 'can't wait till he leaves and we can become boring bland multimillionaires making music for yuppies'.

@RootsinBrooklyn Yeah, I was thinking "Buckethead" myself, although in other vids, it's definitely "P.J. Harvey". lol. And I'm crushing on PG pretty heavily at the moment, so no hate going out here, it's just funny!
I see a lot of comments about wishing you could go back and see them way back when... I recently read about a tribute band called The Musical Box and apparently the members of Genesis gave this band the okay to use their old stage equipment, gave them access to original recording tracks and connected them with the old stage crew so that they could REALLY nail it like it was done back in the day. I also heard Gabriel took his family to see them so that his kids could "see what daddy used to do".
@jahambodotcom The Musical Box,band from Montreal ,Quebec,Canada,tours doing replica concerts of genesis,they are amazing,Phil said that they sounded better than Genesis,, a great complinent indeed,catch them if you can,,you will not be sorry
Saw The Musical Box about 9 years ago.... they were an amazing recreation of. and the crowd was right there with them , singing along and following the dynamics of the music. and they covered stuff from Tresspass
@jahambodotcom It's a band from Montreal and they do exactly the same shows than Genesis in 1970-71-72-73-74. The singer is costumed like Gabriel. It's a very good tribute band ;)
@jahambodotcom I had the almost unbelievable pleasure of seeing The Musical Box perform "The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway" a few years ago. Of course, it was second-best, but I almost didn't survive, I enjoyed their tribute so much. I never got to see this band...never loved Genesis as much after Gabriel left.
Lot of great comments from people who have seen The Musical Box, live. All great reviews of their performances. Thanks! I want to see it even more now. It's unfortunate that I live in San Diego for one reason: great shows rarely come to town because we're so close to LA. If only the touring acts understood what a horrible experience it is to drive to LA and back from San Diego (despite our proximity), maybe they'd take pity and come to town.
Based on what he became in his solo career, it's amazing to see that in his Genesis days Peter was a long, flowing haired rock God showman. People don't think of him as a frontman on the level of Plant or Daltrey or Jagger but he sure was. Maybe didn't sing raw rock n' roll like them but vocally and with entertainment factor was right up there with them.
@hypnotize2472 I really need to check those 2 albums out.I've heard they were supossedly good and the cover artwork looks like prog music.Unless some of the songs made it on the radio,I don't think I've ever heard those albums.But I have heard Phil Collins music and what I've heard is a far cry from Genesis's early albums,some of the best rock music ever recorded.You've convinced me I need to check them out though.I should look for something on utube first before buying them.
@rematpac Duke is a fantastic album, and We Can't Dance, although recent, has some awesome stuff on it. Driving the Last Spike is hard to get tired of. Phil was the perfect replacement when gabriel had to sadly go.
@ToxicTurquoise454 Thanx for the info,I'll have to check out some of the music on those albums to make sure i'm not missing anything good that I didn't know about.
@wateronglass phil on then there were three and a couple others came close but then they remade themselves. this wasn't his fault - all bands to keep up must change. look at the stones. aerosmith, etc
@drjekyll66 I don't, the majority of young people maybe, but not all of us. I listen to this kind of stuff, along with new bands too. There's still good out there, it's just harder to find.
@drjekyll66 Try Beardfish, North Atlantic Oscillation and Pineapple Thief. Good quality new ol' Prog.(not talking 'bout Prog metal) Especially the first one.
@drjekyll66 hey man have a little faith in us, im 16...and guess what?.....im listening to genesis....and geuss what els...its one o'clock and time for genesis, and when the sun beats down and i lie on the bench, i can always hear them play. yep who els agrees that selling england by the pound is the best album?
@KidFidrych Fantastic, isn't it? Record producers in the early 70's were not too hip to what was "cool" with the kids (thank God) - As a result, great acts like Genesis were allowed full artistic license. Now days artists are afforded the license and easier production, but still - as back then, distribution was a major issue. It takes an investment of time to really enjoy & get to know this music. Everyone's in such a hurry these days.
Can somebody tell me what the fuck is this. No seriously, what the fuck is this?

I'm 14, I probably have the same passion for Genesis and good old bands like Rush, Zeppelin, and Yes that you do...I wish there were more young kids like us that appreciate this music and not the shit that we're 'supposed' to like. >.>

@echoesroll You hit the nail on the head bro. Nobody takes the time to learn their instrument or write a song with any thing interesting in it. It's not an art form any more, or a way to get people thinking. It's all about how many unit's can we sell, or how many download's. Fuck man, I learned everything I need to know from 70's music. Don't trust government, question everything, be true to yourself, party lot's, and don't take shit from nobody. And listen to Genesis..... of course, and Rush.

@ianabroad You made my day by posting this.I have been a fan of Genesis ever since I first put on my brother's 45" record of "Selling England by the pound" I love Genesis whit all the original members were together. And I never thought that I would see such a wonderful performance from a band that always made me wish I would have been born a few years earlier so I could of been able to witness the magic live.

cameronobscura22 11 months ago 3
@cameronobscura22 Yes, we do know. Tony Banks is the art-prog-rock genius behind Genesis. Tony Smith, Steve, Phil, and Mike have stated that Tony is the true creative soul of Genesis. Tony Smith even stated in the 2007 documentary "Come Rain or Shine" that "When it comes to Tony Banks, Genesis was his solo career." Firth of Fifth, Apocalypse in 9/8, Watcher of the Skies, the finale of The Musical Box, the second section of Cinema Show, and After the Ordeal were mainly penned by Banks.

@SynthOrgan.. be that as it may, listening to Gabriel's solo albums vs. 'post PG Genesis'.. there's no comparison. Tony Banks was also in the crappy Genesis. I dunno.. maybe it was the '80's. Strangely enough,that point is illustrated in American Psycho.. he's a greedy 80's douchebag who doesn't understand the 70's Genesis, but goes into this monologue about how great the 'new' Genesis is.. especially Tony Banks. So, uh.. maybe it's on Youtube.
cameronobscura22 9 months ago 2
@cameronobscura22 Peter Gabriel is my favorite solo artist, and I love his first album, but remember, it had some straight rock tracks such as Modern Love, and Slowburn, as well as that awful (yet clever) Excuse Me. At the same time Genesis was performing post PG songs such as Dance on a Volcano, Ripples, Mad Man Moon, Los Endos, and Entangled. These four tracks were more prog and complex than anything on PG1. PG2 was punk with DIY and On The Air. "So" was as poppy as I.T. with Big Time and SH.

@SynthOrgan.. Wow.. you know your Genesis, my friend. As taste is subjective, I'm not going to get into a pissing match over old Genesis vs. New(er) Genesis. I will tip my hat (showing off my new Peter Gabriel fucked up haircut) and tell you to keep reaching for the stars.

@cameronobscura22 Genesis is what made me decide to become a musician. I'm a hardcore (but not obsessive) Genesis fan. Don't worry, I have no intention of starting a pissing match. I love all their albums equally. You reach for the stars too. Cheers!

when i was a kid growing up in the early 80s. i only knew of the phil collins/ Genesis era. and once i saw a behind the music on genesis, and i found out that peter gabriel was the origonal singer. and that they were more gothic and punk then the catchy pop songs of 80s.. it totaly blew my mind. cause ive had a listen to both eras and they both stand out on there own.

I am absolutely bewildered by the way that Gabriel has sung such a undefinable message to me: "keep you mowing-blades sharp". Is it do what you like in life? This airy-englishness that commes out is undescribable, and somehow the music itself is not that complicated and over decorated. maybe the sitar/guitar which Hackett plays ( which is the same that Howe plays in Close to the edge, funnily enough ), which has that repeating pattern... just a feast for my imagination.

I see a lot of comments about wishing you could go back and see them way back when... I recently read about a tribute band called The Musical Box and apparently the members of Genesis gave this band the okay to use their old stage equipment, gave them access to original recording tracks and connected them with the old stage crew so that they could REALLY nail it like it was done back in the day. I also heard Gabriel took his family to see them so that his kids could "see what daddy used to do".

Lot of great comments from people who have seen The Musical Box, live. All great reviews of their performances. Thanks! I want to see it even more now. It's unfortunate that I live in San Diego for one reason: great shows rarely come to town because we're so close to LA. If only the touring acts understood what a horrible experience it is to drive to LA and back from San Diego (despite our proximity), maybe they'd take pity and come to town.

Based on what he became in his solo career, it's amazing to see that in his Genesis days Peter was a long, flowing haired rock God showman. People don't think of him as a frontman on the level of Plant or Daltrey or Jagger but he sure was. Maybe didn't sing raw rock n' roll like them but vocally and with entertainment factor was right up there with them.

@KidFidrych Fantastic, isn't it? Record producers in the early 70's were not too hip to what was "cool" with the kids (thank God) - As a result, great acts like Genesis were allowed full artistic license. Now days artists are afforded the license and easier production, but still - as back then, distribution was a major issue. It takes an investment of time to really enjoy & get to know this music. Everyone's in such a hurry these days.
