I've never been too crazy about the A-side really. And Get'Em Out By Friday is almost as awful as Battle of Epping Forest. But something happened the last couple of times I've listened to Watcher of the Skies. Now I genuinely love it.

Can-Utility and the Coastliners. Thanks for the dimensionless numbers and ferrofluids! Yum!

I voted wrong either way, Super's Ready has never been my favorite song on Foxtrot. Surely, I enjoy the epic, but Get'em Out by Friday, Watcher... and Can-Utility and the Coastliners I've always liked more.

This poll is based entirely on the presumption that 99.9% of those who own and enjoy Genesis's Foxtrot  would choose "Supper's Ready" as their favorite song on the album. I entirely agree with and support this opinion, and would even say that it's by far the best of any song on their first four albums.

None of the above 5 songs were performed very often (if at all) in the band's live shows after 1976, but they do have their defenders/supporters. After "Supper's Ready", what's your favorite song on Foxtrot?
