homage to Peter Gabriel era Genesis (not off-the-record warning)

I'll probably give this one another go - on keyboards. It is an unfortunate fact that my hands are hurting more and more quickly - lucky for me piano is not as cruel.

Well done for doing this. One of my favourite Genesis songs ever.Are you playing it in 7/8 or 4/4 time.

Lamb Lies Down is a great album, probably my fave Genesis.  And this is a song I've thought of covering for a while, always put off by how technical it is with all the 7/8 arpegios.  Never would've figure the song as a strum and sing-along song, but you've done it beautifully.

I'm hearing mostly 4/4 with some 7/8 sections.

Great job.  How about Watcher of the Skies in the same vein?

Thanks guys - as for timing... Ask P777 - I suck at keeping time. That the arpreggios are in 7/8 makes sense because I learned (what I did) of this song by playing piano, but only one hand, and it was a pretty unusual pattern.

Watcher of the Skies? Hmmm that could be interesting.

And Gabriel era Genesis is some of my favorite music ever. Along with Kate Bush's sonic experiments.
