First vote! I gave it to the Moody Blues because The Voice is overshadowed by the more popular and inferior Gemini Dream. The Voice heralds a new era for the Moodies with the addition of Patrick Moraz. Yes, we are definitely on the more pop side of the Progosphere, and I love all the other songs on the list, but this one that deserves more credit than it generally gets. ------------- The world of sound is certainly capable of infinite variety and, were our sense developed, of infinite extensions. -- George Santayana, "The Sense of Beauty" |

| Lots of great songs on the list but I think Behind the Lines is amazing---uplifting exciting dramatic and soulful in a cool way---one of the bands best over the top openers. Thank you Tony . |

Tempus Fugit is definetly the catchiest track for me further best to worst ranking: -Frame by Frame -Behind the Lines (close 3rd) -Red Barchetta (good song but some of the verses are a bit weaker imo) -Never heard the Moody Blues one - not super familiar with much of their discography ------------- MacGyver can do a super guitar solo with a broom and an elastic band. Can you do better? |

| MB. One of their best tracks ever. If the song for them was "gemini dream" I probably would have voted for Tempus Fugit. All of these songs are very good though. I want to say that I think "duchess" is one of the most under rated Genesis songs period so if that was listed that might have got my vote or at least been a contender. Behind the lines is certainly not bad though. FBF is a good KC track although I probably prefer thela hunjingeet. For Rush I prefer witch hunt or camera eye or yyz although RB is not bad. Sometimes it's a matter of certain songs being over played. That often knocks a song down a peg or two for me(right or wrong). |

Tempus Fugit with killer Chris Squire's bass line gets my vote. Red Barchetta probably on second and KK third place. As Genesis fan I could always consider almost any of Genesis song but this time Behind The Lines is fourth. And not too familiar with The Moody Blues too... -------------

I can never get over that the Patrick Moraz of Refugee and Yes is the same Patrick Moraz who played with the Moody Blues.

Moody Blues. I love that song, especially Hayward's vocals, plus they need the votes! In years gone by I may have voted for Rush, but I've heard Red Barchetta enough now. I wouldn't care if I never heard it again. The same goes for Behind the Lines. Tempus Fugit comes a close second place (I'm really enjoying revisiting Drama right now), and Frame by Frame is ok. ------------- Ultimately bored by endless ecstasy! |

Moody Blues all the way. After all the disappointment over Octave, The Voice was a great comeback song and introduction to their new sound for the '80s. ------------- "You never had the things you thought you should have had and you'll not get them now..." |
