Oh, yeah! I didn't give the "Other" category enough consideration.

I never thought much of the singles from 1986 onward.
Right on about Harold the Barrel! And why A Trick of the Tail didn't do better as a single is a curious head scratcher, but what does well on the charts never makes any sense.

Actually it's "I know what I like (in your wardrobe). The wardrobe part is in parentheses not the other way around. ;)

Too right. And how they could have slapped that piece of garbage on what many consider to be Genesis' finest is beyond me. Just crap (I do like the way Phil speaks the intro on The Longs).

Out of these choices my vote goes to the wonderful Mama
But sure Twillight Alehouse, Home By The Sea, Entangled and Carpet Crawlers all deserve some love.

I voted for Abacab, easily the proggiest song of those listed here.
Two random guys agreed to shake hands. Just Because. They felt like it, you know. It was an agreement of sorts...a random agreement.

My bad then. I never considered the idea of someone shortening a brief song (by prog standards)
