This guy gets it.  And extra credit because he limited it to one song!

I'd have to pick "Blood on the Rooftops."  Er, wait...  Okay, "Counting Out Time" for me, too, because Lamb hasn't gotten nearly enough love in this thread.

The Lamb is quite amazing, in fact I just finished listening to it. Despite it being my Favorite Genesis album, it's a perfect example of the whole is greater than an individual part. SO I'm going with Dacing with the Moonlit Night. Followed closely by Frith of Fifth
The Wheel of Time Turns, and Ages come and pass. What was, what will be, and what is, may yet fall under the shadow.

"Blood on the Rooftops" is my favourite Collins-era Genesis song. I will go with "Cinema Show" as my Gabriel-era Genesis pick.

The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway is my favourite Genesis album, by the way, despite not going with a track off of it. Trespass would be my second favourite.

Probably "Dancing With The Moonlit Knight" because of the quieter parts and rocking parts, for a range of expression.

Probably For Abscent Friends, cuz Peter is not singing in it. xd But it does techically count as a Gabriel-era song.

Besides Supper's Ready, the first favourite of mine was Firth of Fifth... but now I have a hard time between that one and other similar ones, like Dancing with the Moonlit Knight, Cinema Show, and Musical Box.
