I always particularly loved Dusk so it gets my vote.

I love the entire thing, it's impossible to choose a favorite. This album has an atmosphere all it's own; not even Genesis created anything quite like it again (aside from a few minutes on The Lamb).

Between Stagnation and The Knife. I'll vote Stagnation, since The Knife will win anyway.

Trespass is already a masterpiece.
Hey, I'm the first to vote for Looking For Someone. Still, it's a real killer track. With the bass lines going down, Gabriel's wonderful naive bot oh so effective and atmospheric lyrics (e.g. "Yet in the darkness of my mind, Damascus wasn't far behind" "lost in a subway" etc., Banks' wonderful chords, his mellow organ... Still, I could have voted for Stagnation or The Knife as well.

 Indeed! Though it was close between that and 'Looking for Someone'.

Strange that "Looking for Someone" doesn't have more votes. Anyway, definitely "The Knife" (may be my favorite Genesis song) for me, with "White Mountain" 2nd and "Looking for Someone" 3rd.

By the way, who here agrees with me that "White Mountain" is a vastly underappreciated Genesis classic? Although I guess you could say that about any song off of Trespass except "The Knife".
