Who needs Selling England By The Pound when you can be this brilliant. It takes a true prog mindset to incorporate Prince influences into heavy progressive synth-rock, and this song shows how Genesis really was the leader of the prog pack in the 80's as they left their commercial 70's era behind. And there's a deep meaning behind the song too: sussudio is actually a lost Gaelic prayer that refers to a forgotten fertility goddess of the Irish plains, relating to the changing of the seasons and the sacrifice of virgins to bless the growth of crops for the coming spring. It is said that during this songwriting period that Collins, Rutherford and Banks were inspired by a drive-through screening of The Wicker Man (sans Nicholas Cage).
Please refer to the OP: no solo ****. And how can you have a Phil Collins song in your Genesis top ten, huh? Also, that song? That was the one that started me hating him. Up to then, the first two albums were great, then he pulls this pop crap? GTFO Phil.

Right. This is a wind-up, innit?
