My first Genesis album was “Three sides live”. Couldn’t stop playing this song by then. Early 80s. That made me fan of Genesis for the rest of my life. Thank you form such hight quality music.
Totally awesome, and shows that as a three-piece Genesis had not completely abandoned all their prog style. I never got why people said that. The prog was always there, even at their poppiest.
I was 13 when this came out I think it was the second record I bought and I had to fight my evil sister for tine on HER turntable so I could listen to it, she just wanted to play adam and the ants constantly.
Kedves Veronika, jó látni,hogy a ti korosztályotokban is van,aki kedveli a Genesist.Én 14 évesen ismertem meg őket(annak bizony 36 éve :)) )A bakelitlemezek borítójáról tanultam meg a dalok szövegét,ami jól is jött,mert akkor kezdtem a gimnáziumot és az angol nyelv tanulását.Ajánlom még figyelmedbe a Styx együttes Paradise Theatre,Kilroy was here és Cornerstone c. albumait,amiket szintén 14-15 évesen kezdtem hallgatni.
This transports me another time and place. Many good memories. A drug for the ears. Apart from the magic arrangement I just love the sound of the keyboards and ride cymbal in the chorus.
"A_B_A_C_A_B was a method used to remember the original sequence of the song when it was in it's embryonal state. "A" was the verse, "B" was the chorus, and "C" was the bridge. So the original version went verse, chorus, verse, bridge, verse, chorus. However that sequence was later changed, but the name stuck. I am almost sure the lyrics were Mike Rutherford's." Wow love this story
Del primer al último álbum de génesis no tienen desperdicio,en eso son diferentes a todas las bandas,no Han hecho un solo álbum malo!! gracias por tanta música
I had the privilege of attending a live concert of these gentlemen who still had not seen since their only visit to Portugal in March 1975. After the departure of Peter Gabriel was another thrust and basic caracteristcas band became another direction by taking attitude of Phil Collins, no less a good leader, composer and poet in addition to being excellent drummer. The band released several albums of worldwide and been exposed to public concerts chilling. Backed by a good range of sound engineers and "roadies" who were tireless in satiating the desire to live unforgettable moments perpetrated by these sellers of dreams. Yes, Genesis were a band from one level out of the ordinary as a progressive rock band. It is a pity, as death seeks young people because they are angels, angels Genesis were for some time in the music scene and the decline was cast as everything in this life ... what is good is over.
I've just arrived home from high school (I'm 13), sprowling on bed, I just tuned this song on the radio. What's special about it? Nothing, only that it is the early 80s this very moment!
Ce sont les meilleurs !!! The best !! j'étais au concert live de "seconds out" magique !!...et j'ai été au concert mythique de Milton Keynes avec Peter et Steve
Parfait!abacab de Génésis!!une chanson que j'ai entendue en 1981,j'avais 10 ans et que j'ai jamais oublié depuis!!extraordinaire..un rêve..j'ai 47 ans à présent mais c'est comme la premiere fois avec abacab!le pied!!merci Génésis!!l'osmose entre Phil Collins,Mike Rutherford et Tony Banks..génial!
It seems like yesterday, late summer/early autumn of 1981, a young 16 year old boy air guitaring in his front room of his house playing records on his stereogramm .
+David Cummings Hello. I am a huge fan but i was born too late - 1988 in fact. My dad has all the vinyls and talks about the gigs and events but it just isnt the same as being there. What was it like? Please help me imagine it!
+Adam Ford as Dave C said but imagine this and I don't know where you are from but I am in OZ down under and grew up in QLD on the Gold Coast and when the mates and I were cruising around Surfers Paradise beach in the HG holden and this came on the AM radio it was like YEAHHHHHHHHHHHHH party and you cranked that song until the speakers were distorted which didn't take much and you did a little air guitar and drums and all had a group sing-along while not missing a beat as you yelled out Hi! to the girls walking around in 80's high cut bikini's....as this song faded out and Chilli Wacks gone gone gone you been gone so long came on or Queens Another one bites the dust or Van Halens Beautiful girls....it didn't get much better.
Great song from the second time Genesis. I prefer the 70ies version of the band but this song has got something special ! A so great and amazing band Genesis was !!
I MITICI GENESIS, PHIL COLLINS, TONY BANKS & MIKE RUTHERFORD!!!! Un Gruppo "ProgRock", che ha SEGNATO una SVOLTA nella Musica Pop Britannica degli Anni 80!!!!! Un Gruppo che, ancora oggi, fà "parlare" di sè, per i TANTI Successi che ha "CONQUISTATO"!!!!!!!

Phils just a genius singing & playing the drums like it's the easiest thing in the world & they all just blend so naturally
Tony Banks.....the genius of keyboards.
Tony Banks the maestro keyboard
The God of Keyboards
Grosoooo!!!

Keyboard warrior
The always serious Tony Banks singing the chorus "Abacab!" is lovely.
The best absolutely!
Thank you Genesis for more than half a century of quality rock.
Phil Collins et Genesis, symbiose parfaite, magique 🫶🫶
Abacab. 1981. Thanks, Genesis!!
Io c ero
I love seeing Phil drumming and singing at the same time...

Tengo 46 años, pero con Génesis, me vuelvo a sentir de 15 años....VIVAN LOS 80'S
I'm just 17 years old, but I really love this amazing band. Great song from great album.
I'm 30 years older than you veronika, nice to hear the younger generation appreciate genesis before they went pop
I was 13 when this came out I think it was the second record I bought and I had to fight my evil sister for tine on HER turntable so I could listen to it, she just wanted to play adam and the ants constantly.
I'm very happy to know that you like prog rock. Hope you like the entire Genesis

Phil Collins and the crew what a talent what a great band ❤️❤️❤️
OCTOBER 2024 ........❤❤❤ Genisis are phenomenal
GENESIS AND PHILL COLLINS ....FOREVER CLASSIC.
Well said Ruben
This transports me another time and place. Many good memories. A drug for the ears. Apart from the magic arrangement I just love the sound of the keyboards and ride cymbal in the chorus.
Wonderful music. I miss this kind of music

Wow love this story
It bothers me a bit that Chorus is B and Bridge is C, but it is neat anecdote.
@@james13sylar in Poland womens period span 2 to 4 days not like in physic/math definition period is around 28 days (-;)
I was led to believe that it was the song's chord progression.
Fantastic stuff...still sounds as good as it did when it was first released!
this song has such a great sound. great guitars, vocals, drums, keyboards.
That ride cymbal in the chorus!
cantar e tocar bateria ao mesmo tempo é coisa de genio!!
we will never get this musical creativity again in our lifetimes in so many genres(pop, indie, rock, rap, dance, and more ...)
EVER
Fantastici. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Del primer al último álbum de génesis no tienen desperdicio,en eso son diferentes a todas las bandas,no Han hecho un solo álbum malo!! gracias por tanta música
This is their best song.
This is eternal.... Making year of 80' become a golden age of synthesizer
..........................IT JUST ROCKS!!!
Tengo mi edad pero os prometo que no me canso de Génesis 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

QUE BANDA!!! POR FAVORRRRR TE VUELA LA CABEZA!!! VIVAN LOS 80****
Cada vez que escuto Phil Collins fico louca de emoção 😍 Amo 😀
C'est une de nos préférées from Genesis !
still listening to this great track decades after it came out.

The Master Piece of Simphonyc Rock.
Ale Mercado I dont think it was symphonic rock anymore
Progressive rock. There's no sucha thing as "symphonic rock".
more like post punk.
@@olavikorpi8269 That would be Yes, in actual fact :-)
Ce sont les meilleurs !!! The best !! j'étais au concert live de "seconds out" magique !!...et j'ai été au concert mythique de Milton Keynes avec Peter et Steve

Im son exited
J étais gamin. Et ce morceau m a embarque dans le son genesis. C était incroyable a l époque a parti du genie
Comparando está música con la actual prefiero vivir en el pasado abacab un clásico ❤
en argentina cuando la pasaban en el 81 explotaba la discoteca...cuantos recuerdos
Eso la disco nunca me canso de escuchar genesis
Phil had a fantastic drum sound during this genesis era, once they made the invisible touch his sound production went a bit electronic..
Still wishing for some new music from these guys
It seems like yesterday, late summer/early autumn of 1981, a young 16 year old boy air guitaring in his front room of his house playing records on his stereogramm .
+David Cummings Damn I thought it was only Yesterday that this song was out and it was still summer of 81 Dave.

Bloody brilliant song omg
Great song from the second time Genesis. I prefer the 70ies version of the band but this song has got something special ! A so great and amazing band Genesis was !!
Pop music with a progressive soul:)
Pop? Public Image Limited (the main influencer for this song) is pop?
The track is Pop, an early Pop leaded by Prog influencer. . .
You're mad man, the progressive has keyboards too. Don't be idiot.
@@bertofilava6597 Are PIL, Joy Division, Talking Heads pop bands?
Brilliant Piece of Music and Amazing delivery.
Last time I heard this song was 39 year ago, and I refound it today, thanks to spotify
