For Absent Friends. A no-brainer for me.

Love both of them, but went with More Fool Me. Mainly because it's longer

I suppose it should have been early Genesis vocals, maybe should have included Star of Sirius. Still need to listen to Ark 2, which tracks has Phil on vocals?

I like both two but For absent friends is perfect. And what about Silver song? that song written by Ant Phillips and Mike Rutherford as a farewell of band mate John Silver? God if a saw her now is another good track.

Silver song can be find in youtube. Here for example

I hadn't liked either one as a teenager. I've come to like More Fool Me as my tastes matured. I'm still not there yet with For Absent Friends.

If memory serves, he sings lead on parts of The Planets, co-lead on Changes, and lead on Space Child. Also should have included Silver Song (which probably would have received my vote had it been included). In this case however, I'm going to go with More Fool Me, although For Absent Friends is also very good.

I can understand your anger at me, but what did the horse I rode in on ever do to you?

Good Doc, if you had picked Ansent Friends than it would have been more fool you.  LOL

Both of them majorly suck.  Fortunately Phil learned how to sing not much later.

but I like More Fool Me too and

both of them more than anything Phil did solo.

More Fool Me always seemed something comparable to a Kumbaya of the prog world, best forgotten than actually admired. For Absent Friends comes off as classic English prog and much more the tune Phillip Collins could sink his teeth into.

More Fool Me

Dig me...But don't...Bury me
I'm running still, I shall until, one day, I hope that I'll arrive

Voted "For Absent Friends." My favorite Phil Collins vocals are on Anthony Phillips "Geese & Ghost". Truly excellent.
But because of what he, and Genesis became, when he was so talented in earlier Genesis and Brand X, I can't stand the man's voice any more (since "And Then There Were 3 ..."), much the same as Rod Stewart's "Do You Think I'm Sexy" ruined for me everything he'd ever recorded before, even if I once loved it.

More Fool Me is a bit whiffy.

To be honest I don't care for either song and always liked Gabriel's dramatic and theatrical vocals better but Collins certainly made a boat load of money for him and the boys.

Two great songs, but there's no doubt that I like For Absent Friends better

For Absent Friends.

-------------
When he rides, my fears subside.
For darkness turns once more to light.
Through the skies, his white horse flies.
To find a land beyond the night.
