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). ------------- Continue the prog discussion here: http://zombyprog.proboards.com/index.cgi ... |

| 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". |

| Visions of Angels, but it's a really tough choice. The whole album is brilliant. |

I love all the songs on this record, but voted for Looking For Someone as my favorite. Stagnation would probably be 2nd, the rest is a toss-up. I think the live version of The Knife is superior to this one though. ------------- My other avatar is a Porsche It is easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle if it is lightly greased. -Kehlog Albran |

I went with "Looking for Someone" myself, though as many have mentioned, there are quite a few killer tracks on here. I realize that I'm in the minority, but I would only put "The Knife" as the fourth best song on the CD. Looking, "Visions of Angels" and "White Mountain" all trump The Knife in my book.

The Knife is my absolute favorite song on Tresspass. Stagnation is in a close second. This really is a tough one, as I love this album dearly.

White Mountain by far.
The first GENESIS song that has that dark atmospheric trademark that made the band famous, the key parts are simply delightful specially when interplaying with Ant's guitar, while Peter gives one of his best vocal and flute performances.
The introduction is so perfect that always makes me shiver.
