Probably my favourite Genesis track of all time. Beautifully written and arranged with just the right amount of instrumentation. It must have been tempting to throw everything in. A giant of a track on one of their best albums. Hard to believe that it was released 35 years ago.

phill is such a talented musician overall man! please remind me of a guy, who not only plays drums on proto prog albums (flaming youth) symphonic prog albums (old genesis) pop albums (genesis 80's and solo career) fusion albums (brand x) multiple musicians (the list is just to long) and still sings like this!
Même sans Peter Gabriel Trick of the Tail est le plus grand album de Genesis , cet album est un voyage, cet album est un film, Entengled c'est comme une musique pour aller au Paradis...avec cet album la grâce a touché Genesis...
@44comment je suis completement d'accord avec toi!les gars ils etaient vraiment preocupées de faire de la belle musique, entangled est juste un exemple. moi j aime leus phase prosterieure (duke abacac etc...) mais de looking for someone (tresspass) à afterglow (wind &wuthering) c'était toute une autre chose!
The last thing I would do is take anything away from Tony Banks as to the sound and texture of Genesis, but I hope people know this is a Steve Hackett song...a piece of puzzle long missed in Genesis since his departure after Wind and Wuthering....
yeah seems they were so creative here,haunting melody.not sure if you can compare gabriel and coliins live.each has strengths.it does hold tho that fresh after gabriel left the writing was deeper,less froth and pomp,truly a 70's classic.banks keys are great 4 out of body travel,brill.
I used to try to cop the chords from these songs but it was bit harder than the typical rock song. However, the tempos were slow enough that I could eventually get it after which I thought I was the stuff ! I would even learn the keyboard parts on guitar because I thought the chords and progressions were so cool - very open voicings and full of room
im so inlove with this song, ever since i was in my moms belly i've heard this song over and over again. can never get tired of it. Genesis is the most underrated band ever! thanks to my dad who taught me to love special music like this.

All are right. The magnificant musicians were a recipe for some of their finest work. I have to say though, that as beautiful as the twelve string is, it is the guitar plaing of Steve Hackett that makes this song. His notes are haunting yet comforting through out this album. He was not whowas comfortable standing in the front. He just began standing up just around this time. when he left after Wind & Wuthering you notice the difference.
I love how this song is so absolutely beautiful and you'd assume it has an equally amazing theme for the lyrics to follow, but you find that the lyrics are about a guy about to get an operation at a hospital. Strange..yet that is truly how Genesis worked..well, until they turned pop, at least.
I remember this tour from'76, the bass pedal from Rutherford pounding into my chest. First time I ever noticed on this song, no percussion of any kind. Bruford takes a 6 plus minute break.
@GettingEmOutByFriday I like the percussion. But you are correct...the song is so majestic that it really stands on its own with 12-string guitar and vocal only. Everything else is window dressing. But it is great window dressing!

You people who care what others like or dislike are acting like fascist. Grow up and realise why this country is so great and stop being so damn self centered.

One of their best songs. The outro sends shivers through me. Genesis, for me were the best progressive rock band of all time. Just then right balance of drama, melody, melancholy and all underpinned by brilliant musicianship.
I love this song. Lie in the dark, with incense stick burning. Ethereal! Especially with the choir effect at the end. Makes me think of flying through space.

The musical box, genesis cover band does this song. I saw it in Toronto about 5 months ago. I was blown away. They do it perfect! If you are a Genesis fan, it is a must see (the tour was based on trick of the tail, but they also played all of the hits like cinema show and suppers ready. They are by far the best Genesis cover band today.
Agree with all who love what is, in my humble opinion, one of, if not the, most beautiful hauntng piece of music ever wrtten. Makes a great alcoholic lullaby. Nothing like it has ever come close or ever will. Nailed by this tune in 1976 and still love it. Harmony, enchanting melody and rythem. Entangled and cherished forever. Nothing comes close!
this track... this album... this band... remind me so much of youth! it stirs alot of emotion..im sure this from a film released around `seconds out` period? i remember going to a late nite screening at the `the odeon` in the jurasic period in Newport S Wales! timeless.. Steve Hackett was so cool in my eyes! the reason i took up playing guitar! thanks for posting. love Steve O from THE PORT
Remember my dad playing this LP on a Friday night before a night out with my mum, I must have been about nine, I'm forty one next week and this song still sends shivers down my spine! Follow You Follow Me, and Carpet Crawlers has the same effect. Total class.thanks.
Just watch a vid in which a certain Noel Gallagher called singers like Phil Collins 'dicks in socks'. I don't wanna offend anyone, but I can see where he's coming from.
@BockstaelTwayDuzant the guy that said that collins was dicks in socks i aint having that genesis were talented band mr the gallagher brothers unfortunately think ther re the beatles shame really cos i like the beatles and oasis but your just a twat
This took me back to a place where time was irellivent and life was 1 long love affair full of new experiences. First loves and intimate dark rooms where life exposed it's secret places and life seemed endless and free. This song brought tear's to my eye's reminding me of what was meant to be and a subtle feeling of something lost ferever.
It's so touching to see Tony Banks play the guitar. The footage for the instrumental part in the end is a bit cheesy, though. How many more women dancing on beaches with their bras in their hands do we need?
first time i heard this song i had taken an acid tab. i was with this girl who i had just met. we both ended holding on to each other and falling madley in love with each other whilst crying our eyes out. unbeliveable experience.
@TheLeton995 Only if the Phil Collins clone has any genetic urges to actually write songs, or front a band, removed. On the whole, though, grand idea!
@skaisaliveandwell Haha, brilliant... the bulk of the compositions it's Banks' business... BTW not clones, but close to the real thing are The Musical Box. I've seen them twice, and it was an unbelievable experience...
Years ago I sat haunted by the intrumental at the end of this song. I taped it on an old basf tape and still play it. I could never remember the song or the album it came from. Then today suddenly I bump into it on 7digital.com. Been playing it on my MP3 player tears running down my face......so many memories come tied up in this.
As a huge Peter Gabriel era fan, I will say that is as good as anything from that era. That outro is so haunting...really paints a beautiful picture. And Hackett shines as always. Why isn't music this earthly anymore?
This beautiful song had just remind me of an experience I had last year when I was strolling on the streets of Frankfurt and, in a matter of minutes, I was being taken to a local hospital after a sudden and sheer kidney stone crisis. I was just a tourist who didn't speak german. And the rest was as surreal as this inspired lyrics, including the end.
absolutely love this... but a question niggles at me.. who is playing the bass pedals? Mike can't be cos he isn't even looking.. unless Bill was multitasking?
which year was this concert in , the guy playing on the left, is it Steve Hackett? I just cant see his face, nor his typical moustache. I prefer the studio version; but Tony Banks rules!
@Xanaseb: It's from the" The trick of The Trail tour" 1976 :P Hackett left the band October 1977 :P Also, the drummer for this tour was Bill Bruford from Yes and King Crimson :P
a trick of the tail is a great lp, it has great heavy songs like dance on a volcano and los endos than show they still had all the edge theyd had for the last 6 years and amazing soft songs like ripples and entangled which could only really work with phil, the gabriel era was the peak time but the 2 years with this line up were truly amazing, its a pity steve left but his solo career has left us with a big spark of genesis which he still gives us too this day
the lamb lies is a total great collection.i also really like ripples.this group would not have been the same w/o phil's soaring.vocals.i have steve hacketts post gensis LP"s,he stands alone nicely.
I agree with the Hackett factor as stated by Jeff99az. He carried Phil through this album. Phil was always a great musician, but without Hackett or Gabriel, the group just never reached the high hurdle it set through the early and mid 70s.
I agree that they were over as a progressive rock band with And Then. But I liked it and Duke, and even Abacab. I consider Abacab a very solid rock album. But after that, well...
@Lewsir46 i agree duke was fabulous - there masterpiece i believe.great pop songs,great progressive pieces. abacab is also terrific - wouldn't call any prog on that album but pop-rock with substance.if that album came out today people's heads would explode
Entangled was used as background music on a TV program about erosion on the Yorkshire coastline. For thirty years I have been thinking "Shouldn't they have used "Ripples" instead?" Still, it's another example of the wonderful music that came out in that era.
Every Genesis song evokes very vivid memories of the circumstances I first listened to it. This one will forever remind me of a very cold winter, lots oif ice and snow and a 'wonderful' Tesla reel-tor-reel that I had to continuously adjust with a screwdriver to get proper sound.
I just got to this song recently, when I bought Trick of the Tail. I think this is so pretty, but than I heard 'You catch your breath and the nurse will present you the bill' and it made me laugh só hard, cause that's pretty much what happens in a lot of countries... 5 stars
Kinda agree. I like And Then There Were Three but the whole time listening to that album it sounded like they were confused and not prepared. They could have improved on it greatly. I like everything they did until after Duke was released. Duke had a couple of bland pop songs but the first half of that album and Duke's Travels/End are epic. After that they completely went down the shitter.
Both this LP and Wind and Wuthering are excellent LP's

Remember my dad playing this LP on a Friday night before a night out with my mum, I must have been about nine, I'm forty one next week and this song still sends shivers down my spine! Follow You Follow Me, and Carpet Crawlers has the same effect. Total class.thanks.

Just watch a vid in which a certain Noel Gallagher called singers like Phil Collins 'dicks in socks'. I don't wanna offend anyone, but I can see where he's coming from.

This version or very similar from 1976 is on the Genesis 2nd Boxed Set and guess what - some idiot mixed out the bass pedals at the end! Duh!

This took me back to a place where time was irellivent and life was 1 long love affair full of new experiences. First loves and intimate dark rooms where life exposed it's secret places and life seemed endless and free. This song brought tear's to my eye's reminding me of what was meant to be and a subtle feeling of something lost ferever.

It's so touching to see Tony Banks play the guitar. The footage for the instrumental part in the end is a bit cheesy, though. How many more women dancing on beaches with their bras in their hands do we need?

first time i heard this song i had taken an acid tab. i was with this girl who i had just met. we both ended holding on to each other and falling madley in love with each other whilst crying our eyes out. unbeliveable experience.

4:32 , in my opinion, is probably Tony Banks' best work with Genesis. Its haunting and beautiful at the sametime.

Years ago I sat haunted by the intrumental at the end of this song. I taped it on an old basf tape and still play it. I could never remember the song or the album it came from. Then today suddenly I bump into it on 7digital.com. Been playing it on my MP3 player tears running down my face......so many memories come tied up in this.

As a huge Peter Gabriel era fan, I will say that is as good as anything from that era. That outro is so haunting...really paints a beautiful picture. And Hackett shines as always. Why isn't music this earthly anymore?

This beautiful song had just remind me of an experience I had last year when I was strolling on the streets of Frankfurt and, in a matter of minutes, I was being taken to a local hospital after a sudden and sheer kidney stone crisis. I was just a tourist who didn't speak german. And the rest was as surreal as this inspired lyrics, including the end.

a trick of the tail is a great lp, it has great heavy songs like dance on a volcano and los endos than show they still had all the edge theyd had for the last 6 years and amazing soft songs like ripples and entangled which could only really work with phil, the gabriel era was the peak time but the 2 years with this line up were truly amazing, its a pity steve left but his solo career has left us with a big spark of genesis which he still gives us too this day

the lamb lies is a total great collection.i also really like ripples.this group would not have been the same w/o phil's soaring.vocals.i have steve hacketts post gensis LP"s,he stands alone nicely.

I agree with the Hackett factor as stated by Jeff99az. He carried Phil through this album. Phil was always a great musician, but without Hackett or Gabriel, the group just never reached the high hurdle it set through the early and mid 70s.

Ok,in the past I've slated Phil ,but this song is majestic . I'm a Gabriel era genesis fan but this is classic genesis

@lufc58 -- due to Hackett influence. AFter he left, the classic sound started to fade away til it was gone completely by early 80's.

Entangled was used as background music on a TV program about erosion on the Yorkshire coastline. For thirty years I have been thinking "Shouldn't they have used "Ripples" instead?" Still, it's another example of the wonderful music that came out in that era.

Every Genesis song evokes very vivid memories of the circumstances I first listened to it. This one will forever remind me of a very cold winter, lots oif ice and snow and a 'wonderful' Tesla reel-tor-reel that I had to continuously adjust with a screwdriver to get proper sound.

Kinda agree. I like And Then There Were Three but the whole time listening to that album it sounded like they were confused and not prepared. They could have improved on it greatly. I like everything they did until after Duke was released. Duke had a couple of bland pop songs but the first half of that album and Duke's Travels/End are epic. After that they completely went down the shitter.

A shame the cameraman seems not to care much about Hackett, despite the fact that he wrote this song with Banks...
