Genesis - Follow You Follow Me [live 2007]

[barbaraxize]

Great song. I love it!!!

[stradaveriusfiddle]

Thanks again. Although I like both incarnations, (post Peter Gabriel)....of Genesis, and I saw them in concert around the early '80's, I was not sure if all the same guys rejoined with Phil Collins, through his long solo career. Although I'm pretty sure I had seen Daryl Stuermer with Phil in a clip from one of his solo tours..Did you happen to see the article that Rolling Stone magazine did with 'Phillip' a few months back?

[saffi01]

@stradaveriusfiddle No I didn't, but since then various wrong rumours have been spread. Also, Genesis and the solo career of Phil Collins were running just as separate as Genesis + Mike & The Mechanics or the classical compositions by Tony Banks. The ballads like Hold On My Heart and In Too Deep were, against comon belief, mainly written by Mike Rutherford, Phil Collins was responsible for tracks like No Son Of Mine which he wrote the lyrics and half the music for.

[stradaveriusfiddle]

I believe that's Mike Rutherford playing guitar on this, but, do you know the names of the other players? Thats not Tony Banks on keyboards is it?

[saffi01]

@stradaveriusfiddle It is. Genesis played in the same lineup they have since 1978. Phil Collins (vocals, drums), Mike Rutherford (bass + lead guitar), Tony Banks (keyboards), Chester Thompson (drums) and Daryl Stuermer (lead guitar + bass). Backing vocals being performed by Daryl Stuermer, Mike Rutherford and Tony Banks.

[stradaveriusfiddle]

I think if Phil wanted to, he probably could make that German translation sound good. Thanks again.

[stradaveriusfiddle]

saffi01 thanks for the correct info about my wondering what Phil was doing with the melody near the finish of this version,...thanks again, ..'stradfidd'

[saffi01]

@stradaveriusfiddle You're welcome, I'm sure you'd also agree that German "Ich werde dir folgen, wirst du mir folgen?" wouldn't quite fit in here ;)

[stradaveriusfiddle]

At the three minute 50 sec, point, was Pil singing "follow you.../..me", in German?... I hope so, otherwise,...pretty good live re-creation of a thirty year old hit. At least Phil still sounds pretty much like he did 30 yrs ago. Have you heard what Bob Dylans voice sounds llike lately? He didn't even want to try to play his 'record version' of his hits at his concerts, five years after they came out. Also, the keyboard player had the solo down almost note for note...

[saffi01]

@stradaveriusfiddle Nope, he was singing something like "na na na nanah...". This was actually always part of the song's live renditions as you can hear on Three Sides Live and various tours until 1986, the difference is only he's not singing it with high pitch any more.

I'd recommend the IT-Tour bootleg of the coaster factory for the best sample of the song with high-pitch ending.

[sergechartrand64]

[irishsetterarchie]

Beautiful performance!!! Thank you for posting this saffi01!

[PepeiaESuaTurma]

Amo essa música.

[giubi62]

Ottimo

[keithandhelen1]

no other way to say this... phil collins and this song are f@@king awesome!!!

[dodger55]

Hey, Oasis Beyond, I understand where you're coming from. I went to go see Genesis when they came out with the we can't dance tour. One of the best.

[tanntig]

Yes Saffi01

[rhythmdivine44]

why does tony banks use a rubbish keys tone for the solo?

[andreghouse]

@rhythmdivine44 Because it is the original tone he used all those years ago when the song was first performed. If you listen to the guitar sound it was also very similar.

[oasisbeyond]

Ever see Phil Colins lives in Concert? Probably the best concert ever, but you need to be there to understand.

[flightmaster178]

Such a beautiful song. Genesis's music has so much meaning.

[lordfeners]

dedicated to an angel of heaven...

Valentina Giovagnini

[leanneramey]

will be my wedding song, next time cause I understand it now not just a great song!

[CAVELIZZARD]

Songs like this mean alot to people that really know how to love .

[garfield2279]

This was our wedding song 15 years ago,3 children later it still makes the hair on the back of my neck stand up.

Ive been a Genesis fan for years.

[mairinfourteen]

I can't really think of a more perfect wedding song.

[DHSucked]

As great as Phil is, in my opinion he seems to have lost that "OOOMF" in his vocals over the years.

[noddyhasbigears]

Fing classic..... true music..

[CountryDiscounts]

Do you think this would be a great theme song for Twitter? Follow You, Follow Me -Genesis

[saffi01]

Depends on what you mean by that?

[SPeacock]

@CountryDiscounts I was thinking the same thing :)

[SPeacock]

@CountryDiscounts That's what I thought, too! :)

[saffi01]

English please.

[angolobuio]

this song remember me 1978's summer ...... a fantastic summer<3

[eloisamaior]

Genesis was one of my favourite bands..nice songs for those incredible sensations in life!

Emerson's Moreira version is better.

[MrJoannamarie]

[DancingFalcons]

I was just thinking what a perfect wedding song this would be. Did you dance to this or was it just played?

[Steambat]

Love this song and Genesis. Saw them in 92 and was gutted to miss them in 2007. Thanks for posting.

[Marry09100]

I Love Genesis !!!

This Song is soooooo Beautiful!!!!!!

[NoobUBoob]

[RobbyM1]

O polivalente Phil Collins / Seguirei Você, Você Me Seguirá?

[manhuacu]

essa musica faz parte de uma fase maravilhosa de minha vida...............

[sussie5]

i love this song its so peaceful and touching and up beat its awesome i love phil collins voice so much he rules he was so cool with the genesis and he's cool as a single artist to man x x x x x

[floribunda1969]

Yawn, yawn...keep your hair on klwew. If you post things on the next, expect a response, Have seen Genesis dozens of times and this track was dull alright. Chill out, or stay offline

[saffi01]

If you would please stop arguing on my videos now, everyone is entitled to their opinions but I don't tolerate fighting here.

[fruitydickhole]

@saffi01 Can you not tolerate it? This isn't your website or anything. I'm not trying to be a jerk just bringing up a point.

[saffi01]

@fruitydickhole You do have a point, but my counter-point is, while this isn't my site this is my upload to my channel which I handle the way I like it. As you can see on my other videos I don't delete critical comments or comments with an opinion I don't share, but insults I take the liberty to delete, simply because I would like to have a clean channel. Not many channel owners do this and personally I find it a shame as a good video or channel can lose its reputation from insulting comments.

[drychlick]

i not like the 1. if any 1 got the unlive viston. from 1978! please post it! this is BAD

[dalihendrix]

I love cute.

[floribunda1969]

I really like Genesis and this is a great song, but they all look really bored and as a consequence, it lacks any passion.

[klwewf]

"Critics" like you just crack me up. Know it alls. What the fuck are they supposed to be doing on a ballad like this? "Lacks passion". Just ignorant.

[jo366]

This was, I think, the only song in the whole show that was kept in the original key. I'm disappointed in that.

[steveyp33]

people do get old you know, be graceful..its quality, if you listen close, every song has been changed slighty, thats live music for you,

[klwewf]

Finally. An intelligent YouTube member. Thank you. an you believe these people, steveyp33??

[mcan4287]

Nice, but why on earth did Tony Banks choose not to play a classic synth for the lead, rather than the soulless digital monstrosity he plays here?

[Microsloth]

Tony stated in an interview awhile back that he never liked lugging around older analog synths and Mellotrons. Too unreliable.

[matthehat]

I wouldn;t take analogue gear out out the road, it's a nightmare to keep going. I've got analogue gear, but I use digital synths for gigs, cause they work flawlessly.

I used a Juno-6 live and it was a nightmare, having to set up the patch and make sure it's in tune, much easier to gig with a "digital monstrosity". You've got to move with the times, or get left behind

[kingofkeyboards]

i agree, instead of taking all the analogue stuff i try to take either a digital synth or a vst version.

[svenssoncorps]

@matthehat nice videos man. well maybe you could give me a hand on synths. lol

[SPeacock]

@matthehat I agree - analogue gear is good for studio sessions, while "digital monstrosities" are better suited to live shows. :)

[Cure3]

I've been looking for a video of Phil on drums singing. Thanks for posting!

[saffi01]

You're welcome :)

[CatherineInRock]

This made me cry during the show....

[saffi01]

The video was from an unofficial satellite record of the cinema broadcast. Before you ask though, nothing illegal, there was a free-to-get DVD of this. To see this in better quality though I recommend you wait for the Rome DVD as this one is no longer available.

[netmazter]

wow this is great.... where did you get this video from.??
