Most Pop by The Big Six

Naturally it´s Invisible Touch. It´s one of the only albums I haven´t listened as a whole for years, leaving away that tittle song and "In Too Deep". Maybe I´ll try to listen it as whole some of these days.

	By the point of "Invisible Touch", Genesis sucked.

	If Genesis had changed their name when Steve Hackett left and relaunched as a new band, I'd have forgiven them and praised them as a good pop band, because some of their songs are very good for that genre. But doing it under the Genesis name - never! Edited by Hercules - June 30 2018 at 12:37
	A TVR is not a car. It's a way of life.

	"Invisible Touch", followed very closely by "Owner of a Lonely Heart". I can hardly tolerate listening to them. Edited by Manuel - June 30 2018 at 08:00

	actually think Genesis did some good pop--like" In too Deep". At least Adele liked it so she sayid in an interview lol. I mean is "Invisible Touch" as good a pop song as " I want to hold your hand"? Genesis wrote a lot of good popish music thanks to Phil Collins mostly. And Trevor Rabin said he wished Yes could be like them but Rabin can't write a lot of good pop just mediocre pop---with the exception of "Love will find a way" which is a good pop song.

	Yep - Genesis. Down to that hideously ‘plastic’ and synthetic sounding production, claptrap and all......

	I'm going with Genesis as having the most Pop tune here. I mean once Phil pulled the money train out of the station and Mike and Tony hopped on, it just got less and less prog to my ears.
