On a side note, "She's So Cold" is probably my favorite Rolling Stones song.

"Urgghhh I'm a bleeeding VOL-CANE-OHHHHHH.."

Now you know why Sympathy for the Devil blows

I know, right? It's too bad nobody here knows how to do a FOR NEXT loop in COBOL.

And Benny and the Jets is the worst song in the world for the same thing. It has the worst tempo.

I'll get to Tdarcos's post soon.

Sympathy for the Devil is one of the greatest songs in history. What is wrong with you people? Its lyrics are the opposite of dumb. I'm not a huge Stones fan, but come on.

Since I don't see I've posted it before, I guess my favorote Genesis song is Invisible Touch.

Are you referring to cover versions of Benny and Sympathy? Because Benny and the Jets is an Elton John song, and while there are some covers, neither Wikipedia.nor YouTube shows one by Genesis. As for Sympathy For the Devil„ that is a Rolling Stones Song and I don't find anyone's cover version.

And if you're referring to other people's songs for the worst one, there is one much worse than Sympathy: the Billboard #1 hit, Rick Dees" Disco Duck.

That's my thing. Gabriel accomplished so much more greatness after he left the band, it kinda rendered Genesis obsolete for me. It's like Sting in reverse.
Agreed!

Yeah that's too nice of a song for me to get into lol. As far as his older stuff I'm more of a "Games Without Frontiers" guy. I really enjoyed his "Sledgehammer" and "Big Time" singles as a kid, but I can't enjoy those now as they just feel too silly. "Shock the Monkey" is a life-long favorite song of mine though.

Interesting. This is a reason I started this thread. I didn't even know they had albums that went back to the mid-70s! Much different vibe here, but I will check it out some more.

These are pop songs that I still like anyway. I think these are all Genesis songs?

Land of Confusion
Invisible Touch

These Genesis songs will cause me to physically recoil and try to leave the area where it is being played.

I Can't Dance
Tonight, Tonight, Tonight

I Can't Dance, Benny and the Jets and Sympathy for the Devil may be the three worst songs in the history of music.
All good picks!

Yes, Invisible Touch and Land of Confusion are both Genesis. I also can't STAND "I can't dance" as well. "Tonight, tonight" is OK but not something I'd go out of my way to listen to and most likely will see if there is something better playing on another channel when it comes on over the radio. I mainly just like the keyboard stuff on that song.

I also completely agree with your last statement. I don't really like anything by Elton John but "Benny and the Jets" is probably one of the most annoying songs he ever wrote. I like a lot of Rolling Stones songs, but "Sympathy for the Devil" has some of the dumbest lyrics and one of the lamest guitar solos in a rock song ever made.

Hm, favorite Genesis song.....

Well, I don't have a favorite but Dance On A Volcano would make the top five list.

I looked up their 10 most popular songs 🎵 to respond to you and I just figured out that I'm not a fan, however later Peter Gabriel stuff is pretty good.
