Across the evening sky,
all the birds are leaving, But how can they know, it's time for them to go? Before the winter fire, I will still be dreaming, I have no thought of time. |

^ I find Ripples a bit too maudlin for me and also the use of the ageing metaphor was maybe used by ELP better on Take a Pebble so not that original, although it does have wonderful playing (of course) . Trick is a great album though and easily in my Genesis top three with Lamb and Foxtrot.

I like the way the eventual Top 10 has turned out, where the only favourite song missing for me is Ripples.  |

Interesting that so few picked In The Cage ( I counted a couple at No 5 and that was it). I wonder if it's because the live version with the extended Slippermen and Afterglow sections has upsurped the original studio track? Also it fades out which may be an actual crime. Love the intro and atmosphere though a lot more than on live versions.
