I don't if this counts but "the fat old lady outside the saloon" might be my favourite one!

None of the above. 

The section of "Can-Utility and the Coastliners" after the lyrics:

"But he forced a smile even though his hopes
Lay dashed where offerings fell
Where they fell..."

After an organ passage, an excellent solo bassline kicks in followed by Genesis acting like they were Yes. That part there.

...a vigorous circular motion hitherto unknown to the people of this area, but destined
to take the place of the mud shark in your mythology...

In The Cage, the way Hackett blends with his propulsive guitar riffs in the compelling atmosphere is so exciting.
