TWILIGHT ALEHOUSE

Twilight Alehouse is the best song Genesis ever released outside of a studio album, plain and simple. The real varying dynamics make this one a treat. The soft and serene segments are completed by energetic keyboard-heavy sections, with great playing all around. No instrument is in the foreground: it's truly a great balance between the keys, drums, vocals, guitar and bass. There's even a healthy portion of flute in there, too. The lyrics are generally about the happiness ale brings to a lonely person. Regardless of lyrical content, though, the song is extremely colourful and the jazzy touches are genuine.
