These guys know how to express emotion so profoundly... there's just this certain longing that you can feel oozing throughout this track that sucks you in. Then you realize you haven't even taken a breath during the entire chorus because you are so enraptured in it. Wow Genesis, you surely know to do it. Lol

This song evokes a sadness about aging, that you will never be what you were yesterday. One Genesis song that tears at your soul, when you're in a certain state of mind, is Undertow from the ATTWT album. The emotions from being your last day on earth is overwhelming.

"Ripples" is actually more about what young women go through as they age. The line "It's the last time you'll look like today" is really about how physical beauty fades and withers with time. Ripples are symbolic of a moment in time that will never come back. The cover artwork on the left side features a crone looking at a reflection of her younger, prettier self in a mirror. In fact the cover art has representations of all the songs and the stories they tell. Great reaction, btw! P.S. What you thought was a Mellotron was actually Steve Hackett's electric guitar using some sort of effect, perhaps delay or a volume pedal.

"Ripples" is a huge non-romantic-love ballad with beautiful lyrics about the passing of life. It sure is an emotional piece by itselft, but Phil makes sure that it gets beyond emotional with the sweet voice he pulled off in that late seventies era. The composition and musicianship is perfect, and Hackett electric guitar solo is in my opinion one of his best while he was in the band.

This album that this song is from is a post-Gabriel masterpiece. This album involved the four Phil Collins, Steve Hackett, Tony Banks, Mike Rutherford. Peter had now left. You need to listen to all of this album it is brilliant. As is the next album Wind and Wuthering. Steve sadly left after that album and Genesis went more pop and commercial. Ripples is a gorgeous song, with wonderfully complex chord structure, beautiful melody and meaningful lyrics about ageing and the loss of youth. Again live is just is so much more powerful, I saw them do this back in London in 1980, and again in Amsterdam in 2007 and it sounded just as good. Phil's voice is just so suited to this exceptional prog ballad.

I look forward to your reactions. I hope your situation gets better. All parents have similar thoughts in varying degrees to what you describe; that's not the diminish what you said but to provide comfort that you're not alone. While Seconds Out is awesome, I think the sound quality and mix of the studio version of Squonk gets the nod here. The lyrics are a weird one, referring to a mythological creature from Pennsylvania (you can Google it). But the music itself is really good and you might be reminded of a certain Zeppelin tune.

'Ripples' is not really sad. Just thoughtful, like much of Genesis. They can go dark with their lyrics, but usually give a nugget of hope, if not real optimism by the end. That is both Mike and Steve on acoustic guitars, and sometimes even Tony picks one up. It is how they get such lush dense sound. Steve is doing the 'mellotron' sounds with some kind of distortion on his electric guitar. They really experimented a lot. Very Haunting. The music is like ripples moving to the edge of the pond. Genesis seems able to paint with sound.....like the Impressionists did. (think Debussy or even Monet) And yes, Phil's voice is so sensitive and intimate. Like a good friend consoling us.

Eventually, you may lose your self, (and realise you never really had one), and then it starts to make sense. This is their 1st perfect album, although not their most outstanding (Foxtrot, Selling England, The Lamb perhaps). This track is sublime. Steve's guitar in the 2nd half is haunting.

Nice reaction :) That middle section that you were asking about was Steve Hackett on the guitar using a volume pedal to make volume swells. It's were you have the volume off when you pick the string and then bring the volume up. He's a real master at it. Whenever I'm bummed I like to listen to some rockin stuff played really loud. If I may suggest, check out the music video for BabyMetals Megitsune and crank it up :) All the best

The guitar lines and arpeggios in the verses could easily have been leftover from the Gabriel days. The chorus, however, is a sign that they were moving toward a more mainstream approach to pop music. But this is one of those beloved olde Genesis songs where it was a special occasion anytime they played it live.

Especially when work is a major issue too 😢 These are other similarly moving Genesis gems. As I write this, I can’t see if you’ve done them already. Some are Gabriel; some are early Phil. Warning: they are all emotional. For Absent Friends (PG lineup) Harlequin (PG lineup) Dusk (PG lineup before Phil or Steve) Blood on the Rooftops (PC and Hackett 4-piece) Entangled (same) I usually find music that affects me is cathartic, but not always. Balance the light and dark my friend. Try 80s pop rock Yes: It Can Happen, Changes, I’m Running, or Cinema/Leave It (as a pair). Instant lift and a then-new sound for Yes ❤ Some don’t like it, many love it ❤

I got into Genesis when I was in college ('68-'72), found Peter Gabriel to be acceptable as a lead singer, but never considered him to be a G.O.A.T. sort of vocalist. His voice perfectly fit the band's music though, and I was a bit concerned when he announced he was leaving Genesis. On some level I think I was fully aware that Colliins was doubling the vocals in many of The Olde Songs, and although the band apparently auditioned dozens of potential singers, I am delighted that Collins finally stood up and announced he was sick of spending so much time listening to these wannabees, that he already knew all the songs and the lyrics, and why not just let him take over the lead singer's duties? And thusly musical history was made, with Collins eventually obtaining near-immortal status as a vocalist with Genesis and his own solo career. "Trick of the Tail" and "Wind and Wuthering" are my favorite Genesis albums, a perfect mix of Collins' wonderful voice and the prog style of the old Genesis. While I did not like the band's drifting into the world of radio-friendly pop music, and will always wonder what sort of masterpieces would have been produced by the Trick/Wuthering band if they had remained together and true to prog, I won't begrudge them their payday. I also acknowledge that they never would have played in front of a crowd of 500,000 people in Rome if they had remained an excellent prog band producing epic long songs. Apparently a whole lot of people loved the pop version of Genesis.

Genesis got really popular with those pop songs. But I've never seen so many talented artists in one band that went on to have successful solo careers at all. I really like this album. I reallllllly like SEBTP. I haven't really dove into any other cd other then lamb (which I have to finish) All this to say. I enjoy both eras of vocalists but man.... there is something special about Phil's voice lol

I like your take on it, but it's really about getting old. Ripples never come back means you can't turn back time. Life is finite and beauty even more fleeting. I think a first listen should always be the original studio recording. Then hear live, etc.

...and for "Squonk", better listen to the studio version. And for Seconds Out, "Supper's Ready" live is a far, far better version than the studio one, more fluid, better musicianship and two drums! 🤗

The biggest issue with this album is that Phil Collins didn't have any charisma yet.

@@kbrewski1 Ehh, the first two songs are great. Otherwise, I feel the album really lacks Gabriel's charisma. And the album has a lot Banks' most offensively twee material. Of course, it's a matter of taste.

There is no issue with this album, i'm lucky I love both versions of Genesis and to produce this after the cataclysmic exit of Peter (his choice) was more genius and thankfully more to come with wind and wuthering, and then there were three, Duke, Abacab and Genesis, I slightly prefer the early stuff but they continued to produce great music and I am thankful.
