  • Amo questo brano. Ascolto Genesis dai tempi della scuola media. Questo, come tanti altri loro brani, ma anche brani di altre fantastiche band (Pink Floyd, Yes....) resterà sempre attuale. Nessun'altra band oggi è in grado di far provare le stesse emozioni che ci hanno fatto provare le band che ho ricordato. Teniamo sempre aggiornati gli archivi per le generazioni futute. Questo brano, come tanti altri, non passerà mai nel dimenticatoio. Alla scomparsa di questi geni della musica saremo tristi!!

  • I love the promotional videos for this album I've never seen such great music accompanied by such hilariously shit imagery.

  • bad hair but classic tune !

  • masterpiece

  • Grandi con Ripples...un capolavoro

  • fucken brilliant

  • just love this...memories....god help us ...times a bastard...........

  • lol 4 people dislike....i swear thats a youtube thing to make it balance because theres no way anyone can dislike this!

  • It is so true "Blue girls come in every size"!!!

  • i agree with clovis this was the tune that defines them, it couldnt possibly get any better

  • "Blue girls come in every size, some are wise and some otherwise". Evidence that the band were still using Gabriel lyrics long after he left. Sublime song, from a golden age.

  • @pgoochy Really? What are the writing credits for this song?

  • Gabriel left, but the songs he worked on prior to his departure were clearly deemed property of the group as a whole. The song "Guide vocal" on the "Duke" album is a teasing reference to this.

  • Sublime

  • Fantastic - one of the worlds greatest bands - seen them live many times

  • Smasher. A real smasher and the lyrics are - well, appropriate now.

  • Where did you go Ian? K x

  • Genesis wondered how they will manage without the captain, but they did well.... until mid 80's

  • a true ethereal spine tingling magical journey into thoughts and dreams - Genesis - the songs, the feelings THE band. Every song thought provoking and meaningful - thanks guys we love you.

  • Only problem I have with this song is that it ends. I could lose myself in it forever

  • @genesisrock43 The solution,' tis simple...just keep replaying it!

  • i agree with boy51, fuckn heart wrenchin

  • why is phil collins brilliant in genesis and crap on his own?

  • @ray5401 LOL

  • @ray5401 yes i get your drift

  • Amo a interpretação e voz do Phil, Genesis...nunca mais, que pena.

  • I think this has to be my most favourite of all their songs. Haunting, mesmorising and just love the line - "Lovlier she was than any that I know" like something out of a Medieval Poem.

  • The best band of all times!!!

  • Timeless......................­

  • You are right. It really is a beautiful song.

  • brilllllllllllllllllllll

  • GRANDE

  • genesis é fantástico. Phill Collins não nasceu para ser outra coisa senão um músico espetacular

  • Não concordo com voce.

    Phill Collins é um panaca.

    Peter Gabriel sim que é o Gênio!

  • Splendida canzone !!! A trick of the tail e Wind&Wuthering sono degli ottimi lavori nonostante l'assenza di Peter Gabriel

  • Wasn't this the B-side to Trick of the Tail? I loved this. It was on the duke box of a bar/club I frequented in the late 70s. An RAF base, Marham in Norfolk.

  • Oh, the memories

  • Agree, got many of them from this band, especially when artists like this had talent, played their own instruments and wrote their own original stuff ! ...Ah ...the good old days !!

  • well said mate, im an artist who ticks all those boxes and i just know ive got a mountain to climb,this was when talent came first.

  • Great song.........beauty

  • will there ever be another genesis i hear you ask , YES try OPETH they are the band genesis should have turned into not the crap they did,the last great genesis album was trick of the tail,but hell what do i know

  • minnesota north stars :)

  • semplicemente un CAPOLAVORO..del grandissimo artista Phil Collins..un brano come questo resterà immortale!

  • Pure Genesis Art; and very much likely... this song is their MASTERPIECE...!!

  • Will there ever be another genesis?

  • i'm sorry to say NO x

  • beautiful

  • Più di 55 milioni di visite per i video di "Viva la Vida" dei Coldplay e poco più di 100.000 per "Ripples"! Come dire la più bella canzone in circolazione attualmente, è 500 volte più bella di questo capolavoro musicale!! Assurdo!!!!

  • Completamente ed assolutamente d'accordo!!!

  • Timeless and beautiful piece.Love Genesis music

  • simply brill...... genesis "ROCK...

  • One of the best Genesis songs of all time well done Peter

  • Timeless and Wonderful!

  • Unique work of art. One of the reasons why humans should survive.

  • Utterly memorable.... it´s awsome how the guitar and keyboad solos put us into a sailing trip at mind. RIPPLES may never come back, but thanks songs like this keeps always coming. Thanks for uploading.

  • It's still moving me after more than thirty years of knowing this song and listening to it.

    Really a great musical love for me!

  • An absolutely inspired guitar solo during the keyboard bridge! Probably some of Hackett's best work ever with Genesis. He certainly keeps it up today in his solo career...

  • Fucking brilliant

  • THE BEST SONG THAT I HEARD IN MY LIFE

  • fantastic!!!

  • Stunning stuff...a great Genesis track.. forgotten just how good this was/is

  • I hate the audio drops & picks ups, because im trying to play the song at a certain volume

  • Powerful song

  • This song just rips my heart out. I'll be moving far away from my 7 and 8 year old children in two weeks.... but so that I can have a job that will continue to provide for them.

  • Good luck to you and your family, a very brave decision. From one Genesis fan to another. God bless.

  • Good luck to you at least you have the balls to provide 4 your children best of luck to you and hope all works out well 4 ya!!

  • actually the song was written in early october 1975, and this recording took place on November 30th 1975. They held onto the recording and the track until TOTT album was finished in mid December 1975. I have over 10 different studio versions of this song. It was Tony who played with a bunch of different cords and the group could not agree on the first 3 minutes (Phil insisted the drums came in too late).

  • Total classic thanks 4 posting!!!

  • This is such a beautiful piece of music.

    After Peter Gabriel left Genesis it would have been easy for the rest of the band to "call it a day " but they went on to produce two further classic albums in "Trick of the Tail" and "Wind and Wuthering". This still sounds as fresh as the day it was released 33 years ago.

  • Wind and Wuthering occupies something of a pivotal role in the Genesis canon. The last album to feature Steve Hackett, it is also seen by many aficionados as their last "great" album. This school of thought runs approximate to the dictum that after Hackett left, the music became less "progressive", and simplified over a period of time to the point where Genesis evolved from a "prog" band who occasionally wrote "pop" songs, to a "pop" band who occasionally wrote "prog" songs

  • makes me feel i am young again, back in college, dreaming of all the possibilities for my life

  • This is fantastic reminds me of tracks off albums such as Nursery Cryme and Foxtrot. The instrumental in the middle is just magic and the way Steve Hackett plays it with his awesome tone. They did this on the 2007 tour and its one of the best tracks on the live DVD. Daryl pulls it off on the guitar as well!

  • So nice to know there are still others out there that remember such great works of music!

  • This song covers my body and my soul, perfect for dreaming!

  • Ripples and Wondrous Stories from Yes, just put me into tears.

  • Yes...Done the same during many decades...Rippples...Very Beautiful..

  • best song ever

  • great album ****

  • One of their finest "post Gabriel" pieces !

  • definetly the peak of their songwriting before

    steve left

  • This song is unbelievable! The music, the imagery! It's as if you're taken to another place and time.....

    Thank you Genesis!

  • Beautiful... As good as it was when I first heard it !

  • this song makes me feel a whole new feeling everytim i listen 2 it. genesis is awesome

  • second's out ... oh what a show !

  • genesis is my favorite music band !!and beautiful song is great i funs from chile i love this music !!!! forever genesis in time

  • The best live version was on 2nds Out.

    Brilliant music by just some guys...

    They never did anything but enjoy playing..never took themselves too seriously..they just made magic

  • I think Steve (Hackett) was using an E-BOW, for the guitar solo.. it's so beautiful.. Just wish there was a clip of them in 76" playing this Live..  Phil's voice was so pure then.........

  • I was so happy they included it on the "TIOA" tour a couple of years ago. Although the key was dropped a bit, it was actually beautiful.

  • :-( Ripples will never come back

  • This song is a beautiful testament to the mystery of love; brilliant!!!!

  • fuck those virgin asshole video editors who had to try to make cool special effects

  • what is the name of the video/song of where phil collins is on a ship and he is rocking back and forth,i think he is wearing somekind of maritime uniform?

  • phil's wearing a jersey from a former national hockey league team - the minnesota north stars

  • I think you mean the song "hang in long enough".

  • yeah that`s the song thanks!

  • Comment removed

  • You sure thats a Phil Collins/ Genesis? As I remeber a Jethro Tull video like you describe,

  • This is my favorite Genesis song of all time. It's so beautiful, emotional and sounds fantastic. I love Genesis!

  • Anyone else wish they would've just focused on Steve playing the guitar for the whole video?? my God...he makes the most beautiful sounds come out of his instrument

  • i really like this song...especially the live version of the turn it on again tour 2007

  • Good to hear this back after all these years.

    The instrumental mid part in the middle of this song gave me goosebumps back than and now.

    Hackett rules.

  • Clássico dos clássicos do Genesis ! Realmente linda demais !

  • che dolcezza di note sognanti, che musicisti geniali!

    GENESIS.

  • WHAT IS IT t you did not find over the years in GENESIS, or all the so many Pre-Genesis and After-Genesis and In between-Genesis solo projects...you did not find?

    The key is simple: these people were EDUCATED and had spirit and soul and always will carry that foundation in themselves!

    Others mess around with you and your life and never know better than "they- moddafakking-like-it-like-hell­"

    Achwat Slechtvalk!!! Get Cured!

  • one of the best of Genesis.

  • Beautiful song. Props to PC for singing it during some of the last tour. Very tough song to sing easily all the way through.

  • Genesis es la mejor banda del mundo.

    No hay un tema que no me guste. TODOS ME GUSTAN !

  • one of the best songs ever!!

  • From 4:14 to 6:32... Amazing!

  • Agree. The instrumental part is of 'Selling England' standard.

  • I love the way Steve makes his guitar sweep.

  • one of the most beautiful songs ever!

  • maraviglia, non mi stanco mai di asc oltarli

  • The live version of this from Genesis Archive #2 is absolutely phenomenal.

  • I saw them on this tour, but, in Montreal, he wasn't wearing a Minnesota North Star sweater!

  • unos de mis temas favoritos!! guuaaooo!!!!

  • Greatest song off the TOTT album... Entangled! Possibly the BEST Genesis song too!

  • Aaahhhhhhh!!!! Che musica.....Pura Poesia!!! Ma perchè non fanno sentire questa Magia ai giovani che oggi ascoltano solo musichette da niente che nessuno ricorderà o stupidi brani sculettanti ed ammiccanti privi di ogni emozione e qualità!

    Ho ascoltato di tutto in vita mia, qualsiasi genere, ma i Genesis.....aaahhh, loro non stancano mai!! Che musiche indimenticabili hanno composto, ancora oggi mi prendono anima e cuore come nessun altro!!

  • This is a relaxing song

  • Why is Phil wearing a Minnesota North Stars jersey? So does that mean he likes hockey? *crosses fingers and hopes its true*

  • Phil also wore a NY Rangers jersey and Tony is wearing (I believe) a Vancouver Canucks jersey in the "Follow You Follow Me" video.
