Genesis - Stagnation - Live at Solihull, England 1972 (Retro MTV)

♫♪ http://www.playmemysong.tk ♪♫ Genesis recorded live at the Civic Hall, Solihull, England July 25, 1972. My first attempt at video "art". It represents one fan's mental images inspired by lyrics from this Gabriel-era Genesis song.
=======================================
To Critics: Yes, I know. I created this piece before I knew that there was a "nuclear holocaust" meaning to the song given by Peter Gabriel as an introduction: "To Thomas S. Eiselberg, a very rich man, who was wise enough to spend all his fortunes in burying himself many miles beneath the ground. As the only surviving member of the human race, he inherited the whole world."
=============================================
THIS VIDEO'S STORY: The kingdom is in a period of relative calm, peace, and prosperity, but unease exists.

An army of knights, composed of both men and women, departs from the village of Solihull.

They seek a great castle which is said to be a wellspring of youth and happiness. Water and game are scarce this season, and the knights are hungry, thirsty and dehydrating.

Finally, they reach a small village and see a simple castle on a mountain. Rejuvenated, they ride towards the castle, but as they approach, different-looking castles appear on the same location.

A lightning storm begins and the castle finally reveals itself to be a sinister, evil fortress. There is madness and terror dwelling here. It must be destroyed. The knights attack but are repelled almost completely. But one woman remains standing and she single-handedly tears down the walls of the castle and sets it ablaze. The knights have prevailed.

Joyous peace returns, but one knight has been lost and left far away by a stagnant pool. His fate appears doomed, but in the end he (and a vast lake of sweet crystal water) are restored (by the female water goddess) to the village with the other conquering heroes. However, peace and calm will never be taken for granted again.

For actual video footage of Genesis performing Stagnation live and also an interview, see my "Genesis - Interview plus Stagnation - Live at the Piper Club, Rome, Italy 1972". Unfortunately, only 4 minutes of the 10 minute song were videotaped:
