Genesis - Blood on the Rooftops

[bassmanjoe]

5 dislikes? Must be fans of the song I Can't Dance! What a stupid song!

[MegaCarli12]

great music

[jhbym59]

Superbe qualité, c'est rare, merci !

[tahoevic]

Why does almost every one use words from the song as a "comment". STUPID

[andnowforthetruth]

One of my favorite Genesis songs!

[2011Appleman]

Im 14 and this is the type of music i want to hear. Not Justin beaver or todays suckish music.

[arbraulin]

There are four dudes with ears in their feet

[SuperJohnnyO]

I'm running out of things to say about Genesis. Are they... TOO good? :)

[GreenhouseEffectGE]

Oh Man. What an awesome Song this is: One Word: Hackett!

[GreenhouseEffectGE]

Oh Man !! What an awesome Song this is !! Hackett !!

[Annaliese247]

Just lay back on your bed and drift away... The lyrics, the music, Phil Collins... Just pure and beautiful...

[terryeggett1]

captured my new year blues perfectly.

[aghoeing]

Genesis: this song is absolute perfection! Quite possible the most beautiful song they have ever done!!

[discoverytime1]

Helen of Troy has found SO many new faces now hasn't she?

The stuff we invite into our homes. Such a smart song.

[cent4urus]

man Collins was born to sing this song

[twinsmm1]

Arabs and the Jews, boy (too much for me).

Some things never change.

[ladislas59]

we all miss Steve Hackett in Genesis

[georgeman2468]

Nothing will ever be made like this again, sadly....

[therehastobeme]

These Kind Of Songs Should Only Be Listened with Headphones for The Best Sound And Experience

[bassmanjoe]

One of the best Genesis songs hands down, amazing...

2 dislikes?? Must be fans of I Can't Dance.

[SuperAnto1969]

3.49 apoteosi biblica..

[Aldo1957able]

@SuperAnto1969 Yep :o)

[SuperAnto1969]

@Aldo1957able i genesis..il miglior prog in assoluto..

[clarius1973]

Probably the best post-Gabriel Genesis song!

C.

[BluDevil93]

By far the highpoint of Wind & Wuthering, along with All in a Mouse's Night of course.

[MrSecretworld1]

how to write a great song listen to this !!

[Abkeda]

@MrSecretworld1 Nice Mr...very beautiful...profound....how's that mic situation coming...:~)

[txikilin]

Autumns are never the same since I heard Wind and Wuthering.

[MrAlbertrock]

Sin mas preámbulos Genesis Blood on the Rooftops

Idea musical.... Rock 101

[bourkland1]

I have always loved this song. Sad they never played it live.

[DefenderofLindon]

Hackett's classical guitar and those lush, wistful keyboard arrangements create such an atmosphere on this album. Though the rest of the tracks are very much in the shadow of Blood on the Rooftops, Eleventh Earl of Mar and One for the Vine.

[komimakojaketu]

The interplay of Tony Banks,Steve Hackett and Mike Rutherford (on 12 string guitars,bass and Moog Taurus) was always pure magic.Imagine if those three were joined by Jon Anderson (on vocals) and Bill Bruford (drums).Imagine if they made an album and went on a world tour.Never mind.I'm only dreaming.I'll never see Peter Gabriel with the old gang live anyway (he's so full of shit).Phil Collins can't or won't sing any more.Yes is no more.There's NO Yes without Jon Anderson.Period.What a waste!

[duckium60]

the ambiance put forth in this tune is astounding

[yolande1962]

c'est toujours aussi bon à la réecoute...

[prissel2011]

Beautiful song... thanks for posting!!

[SDsailor7]

Thank you for uploading monlitknight..and for posting the words to the songs..It's great!

best wishes

[somebodysvids]

Possibly my favorite Genesis song ever.

[thesinger126]

Genesis, just love still jsut as much as I did when 15 .

[Jangras11]

Are the lyrics about family memories from childhood or something similar?

About a middleclass family living on life throughout tv?

[Marillionboy]

@Jangras11 I think its about watching terrible news and violence on tv and mourning on how little we feel it all when watching it all second hand. The Helen of Troy line at the end also I think hints at how even "the most beautiful woman in the world" is just something we are presented with a new version of periodically.

[SuperAnto1969]

da spermarsi nelle mutande..

[SuperAnto1969]

3.49 trionfo assoluto..apoteosi melodrammatica..immensi

[9johnevans]

53 ? I will be 70 in September and I adore this one , along with many other Genesis and Steve Hackett songs . This is music which ranks in quality with anything else written and/or played by anyone over the last five hundred years !

This one has a haunting charm that lasts and lasts.

[steelyman08]

@9johnevans

"Haunting charm" is perfect.

[karlmoles65]

@9johnevans That's awesome brother. You rock the hell on.

[gazmanc1]

@9johnevans Well said my friend.. :)

[Rawbie100]

[Aquar39]

I Love The Song.

[bosmanone]

absolute class

[bosmanone]

pure class

[crazycow826]

amazing

[steveperry2112]

It's so good to e able to use youtube as a juke box and just think of a song and there it is. I couldn't agree more with all the comments...surely the most overlooked Genesis song on possibly the most overlooked album.

[sindylindywindy]

Quite like the remastered version! Love this song, one of my favourite Genesis songs, beautiful melody and words.........some of today's oiks should listen to this....proper music....and they played their own instruments!!!!!!

[ThomasHarrower]

@sindylindywindy i love this and i'm only 15

[sindylindywindy]

@ThomasHarrower then you have taste..... :-))

[GooG20102010]

@ThomasHarrower lol i'm 14 and I fucking like it xD

[bakinchoy]

@ThomasHarrower me to , im 17 :D

[bassmanjoe]

@ThomasHarrower Smart person you are!

[fuwmg]

Only 1300 views for a masterpiece such as this. What a shame

[carowabbit]

@fuwmg up to 13,360 views now.. it's hardly enough for it..but it shows how much I've probably listened to this in the past 5 months.. half of those are probably from me listening to this while at work :)

[68micol]

HAMMIL grazie per averla proposta .. è strepitosa ... la dedico a te ... chiudo gli occhi e sogno ... :)) 

[jobaecker]

This audio track seems to have more ambiance than the original studio album -- is this a hi-fi version?

[moonlitknight009]

@jobaecker This is from the Genesis 76-82 box set that came out a few years back. All the albums were remastered, I believe, by Nick Davis and Tony Banks.

[markusskubic]

@moonlitknight009 Brilliant Sound. Fantastic.

[juniorfloydxavier]

@jobaecker It was remastered from original tape.The original record is better.
