I was first introduced to Genesis with their 80s stuff. With the exception of a few songs, it wasn't until many years later that I discovered everything pre-Abacab. I've come to like their more poppy stuff less over the years. I think my list mostly reflects that even when talking about their 80s output I prefer the songs that were less likely to be on the radio, or at the very least harkened back (even if in only a small way) to their prog roots.

Duke's Travels
Turn It On Again
Abacab
Dodo/Lurker
Mama
Tonight, Tonight, Tonight
Silver Rainbow (highly underrated song in their catalog)
Home By The Sea
Second Home By The Sea
The Brazilian

Your favorite ten 1980s Genesis studio songs from that decade. Yes I know, we’re not supposed to like that stuff here!

Mine, in rough order of preference, as well as in nearly chronological order...

Misunderstanding
Turn it on Again
Dodo/Lurker
Abacab
Man on the Corner
Paperlate
That’s All
Tonight Tonight Tonight
Land of Confusion
Do the Neurotic

I had to stretch a bit to come up with #10 here, which was the b-side to “In Too Deep” in the UK.
