Only Genesis? Ok. From those... Watcher of the Skies. It promise to be an interesting mood. And of course it is.

I guess Duke isn't considered classic (I think it is better than "...and then there were three"), but "Between the Lines" would certainly qualify as a great opener, even though I voted for "Eleventh Earl of Mar".

Musical Box, definetly. The ending where the organs come in and the line "You stand their with your fixed expression" are absolutely terrific.
My music!

Gotta be Watcher of the Skies - fabulous mellotron and then the fade out and fade in with that tension in the drums and guitars as the volume swells.
In a word - Awesome
