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". ------------- "That's not your face...it's mine! IT'S MINE!! |

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

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 |

| Watcher of the Skies has a good intro, but the Musical Box and Moonlit Knight are better songs. My vote goes to Musical Box, one of Genesis's finest moments. |

I really like The Musical Box. The song goes in very unique directions, I was really suprised what it had to offer the first time I listened to it. -------------
