Who’s listening in 2024??? 🤟🤟🤟
Tumadre
Me, ever
Yup
Still just as confusing as it was back then....
Me love it ❤
This Should be The Number 1 Hit for 2024 . We are in a Total. LAND OF CONFUSION !
World of Confusion more like 😀
Total world
Video a bit obscure!!!
Listen to the lyrics!!!!!
"My generation will put it right. We are not just making promises that we know will never keep. " Yeah, about that....
Ciao...by..gio..sss..primo..miami..florida..ciaoo
It's also a massive problem when people think they know how to make it right but it just creates more issues when they try to force others to comply. Current culture wars come to mind.
Phil Collins' generation is still alive but as long as there's bad people it'll never be put right
I think that every generation has at one time or another say that line
Heard this for first time since I was a kid in about 1990, and THAT line was the one that really stood out to me too. But at least there was hope back then - there's none right now, and aww man do we need a 'hero' to come along...

37 years later Spitting Image is still a thing and the world has not learnt anything from its mistakes
if anything the world is infinitely dumber (smart phones make stupid people) and the current crop of baddies are a joke compared to the past, yet we act like and buy into it being the worst of times. Humanity is so fucking stupid.
Does it ever?
Didn't realise Spitting Image was still a thing. The horror, the horror.
Agreed 100%
Same thought.
As a kid I was scared by the visuals.
As an adult it's the lyrics.
me too. The puppets where very scary.
wow. we live in a society moment.
both are too true for comfort
if you knew how to understand symbolism, you would be more afraid.
And your Name is Mobutu😁
"too many people making too many problems" Damn right!!!! One of the best songs ever....
nonono that is exactly the wrong thing to focus on, by this mindset you are adding to the problem, you should be focusing on the part "and not enough love to go around" and by your love to your fellow man, you will solve all problems.
@@jokerguycz yeah and you are one of those guys, who go to a war with a knife...
People like you are the fn problem!!!
If someone is causing problems, tell em! But I guess that could offend or hurt feelings... -.-
@@chrisbee9643 No, god is the problem and all of this is the consequence!
@@esteelvauce7288 they are part of the "to many people making to many problems" part of the song. ;)
The saddest part about this song is that it doesn´t matter when you hear it, things are still the same :(
One of the most iconic music videos of all time,right up there with Smooth Criminal and Thriller and spitting image was one of the best things on tv back then.
I am at 51 i worship genesis and phil David charles Collins one ov my favourite artists ever genius and ledgend his vocals are perfection ❤❤❤❤
Most important message to human kind: nothing changes. Same shit, different year.
Yep....nothing new under the sun.
I agree
Nothing changes unless people do something to make it change.
Nothing changes but music.
That's what happens when you give up your government and culture to different ((people))
I will never forget when I saw this video in 1986, but I never imagined that in april 2024 we would live in a Land of Confusion, this masterpiece came true..
totaly agreed with u.
Maybe thé fear is not terrorisme , but Politics is the scaryest.
Man we all live in lands of confusions and wrong causes,but wait we must winn rhem
I miss the 80’s……
@@Timbo6669 Imagine the BC and BCE times then AD,, how beautiful the world is once
rightly said, especially after the plandemic covid, suddenly the cold war was on full steam, orchestrated by these too many men...
This song was ahead of its time ❤😢
just heard it on radio after years no listening to it , up loud i was pretty impressed by the drum programming and oomf the sounds have . hope it was phil collins himself doing the drum programming , would be cool , the kick drum is very cool
Toda la vida fue igual, nunca cambiarnos!
'The men of steel, the men of power are losing control by the hour.' Sadly accurate in 2023...
The perfect song for this "time of confusion".
Same here same here!!
Disturbed version is slightly better
Is time of confusion since the beginning. Lol
Yea it's all just to true that it seems sinnister that they even told us
Jes
Director: "How much nightmare level the video should have?"
Genesis: "max"
The puppets are from a show called spitting image, It has over 10 seasons
Yes
@@billclinton3862 doesn't mean it's not terrifying. I love this song, but always minimise the video.
In these Covid times I put this song before my sleep.😂
It's pretty appropriate to the time and subject though...
This is the coolest music video I've ever seen in my 54 laps around the sun
The most truthful music video of the late 20th century!
"There's too many men, too many people making too many problems, and not much love to go round..." So very right!!! Thirty-six years on...sadly the lyrics still make sense.
" We didn´t start the Fire.."
Then start loving more
Never more so 😥
All this time i thought it was "and Not much logic around"
They'll always make sense.
Finding myself listening to this song again these days. Scary how accurate the lyrics are even so many years later and especially during the last days!
Other than the lyrics, the song is super catchy.
Free Ukraine! Sława Ukrainie!
Gran pezzo dei migliori Genesis!!!!!
This one and _Russians_ by Sting.
@@kasperchristensen8416 Yes, You both are right!
This was epic song in the 80's.... LONG LIVE THE 80'S ❤
kkkk
...and it is still an epic song today. Probably will ever be!
For me, still one of the best songs of the 80’s
I’m 40 years old and this still freaks me out.
Ha,ha,ha, I'm 73 and it still freaks me out !
Because the lyrics are even more relevant these days.
You and me both. Same age, and I was really disturbed by this video when I was a kid. I always thought maybe when I grew up, it wouldn't be so scary. Now I can laugh about it, but it's still scary.
сынок, мне полтинник))
I m 17 and love this song
This song has been my mind lately with what’s been going on.
me too, buddy... me too
same!
yep, more accurate now than ever!
Just need to replace Ron & Nancy with Don & Melania for an updated version? 🤔
Just out of the blue I've been singing it in my head all day today...
100% one of the best music videos of all time.
I absolutely love the fact that Phil Collins must’ve signed off that caricature of himself.
And his voice. I absolutely love his voice.
This aged like fine wine.
Yup. A lot of disinformation about covid. Too many people making too many problems, expanding the virus and all....
:)
any one in history saying humanity fails its potential end up being right. Its as old as history
Maybe a little Chablis ? 😊
I have 😁
@@femstora what about renaissance era?
Well. Exept the "Out Generation will make it right Part" exept its meant to Meta.
This song is still so relevant.. This is still a land of confusion in 2016..
totally agree...
spot on if this goes on the worlds people will suffer again under the dispute's of a few egocentric assholes!
I totally agree with you, I'm glad I'm not the only one that can see that, I wish more people would speak out, it's like a conspiracy of silence nowadays, nobody wants to tell it like it is, this society we live in is an even bigger confused and directionless mess now than it was in the 1980's when this was in the charts, at least back then we still had some semblance of a plot, now it's like the plot has been thrown in the bin.
The only thing that is saving society from going under and into total anarchy today is the technology, mobiles, internet etc, which even the poorest can afford, unlike decades ago when such technology was something you had to be a Yuppie or very wealthy in some other way to afford, having access to this greater technology is helping us to cope with all the even bigger complications we face nowadays, although I suspect that this technology is a double edged sword and can work just as much against us as for us.
oh yeas
John, the technology is the reason why the powerful ones are pulling our strings and making us deaf and blind. Anarchy is the only way to save human kind.
Unfortunally, their times were better than ours. This legends lived in a much promissing times....Today we are lost in our endless political problems.... people are divided alot
Their times borrowed happines from ours. We gotta tell our kids their grandparents burned the planet so they would have better quarterly reports anc cheap petrol....
This song is more relevant than ever.
Nothing changed over the last 35 years, this nightmare never ended.
It's just beginning 2020
derhallofrosch Don’t be ridiculous, things have changed - they’ve gotten worse
Of course not, even the people who wrote this Genius song, ironically, fight for more and more confusing times and lands.
Yes absolut.
@@sarahclifford2442 You had to jinx it.
As a kid in the 80’s, the design of the puppets always scared me. Today, I absolutely friggin love this song, the arrangement is fantastic as well as the lyrics. Truly love Phil Collins.
me too with those puppets
i was scared
Always thought that I am the only one who was scared
Me too!!!! 🤣 (Could never see til the end... scary!) 😂
They still look frightening
watching them in 2023 I don't think there is any cgi better than those puppets, it's a fucking amazing work
This song is so very perfect for todays 2023 world times sadly 🌎 ❤️
The relevance of it is constant. It was always like that, blind fools.
Und aktueller als je, seit lieb zu euren Mitmenschen,denn es gibt einfach zu wenig liebe auf der Welt. Und wenige Leute machen diese Welt zu nichte. Darum seid stark und liebt euch
There will never be artists like these anymore....
Why do songs preach? Nobody practices?
Gotta love baseless comments...
One of the best videos in history.
Isn't it? I sort of feel bad that I had to watch it twice before I realized that was Ronald Reagan though...
Mr Mattemoe yes
Bella Rocco!

It continues being a land of confusion.
david garione : You right david, it is def. the land of confusion, unfortunately. Lets hope all will be sorted, "Sad Face" but I doubt it :-(
It still rings true in 2024
very much so
Oh my beloved 80's.... 😢
I first heard this song when I was 15. But in today's times it somehow fits more and more as time goes on.
The relevance of it is constant. It was always like that, blind fools.

The 80s, better music, better politicians.
This song is timeless..
actors are changing, but the mess is the same.
The expressivity of the characters is absolutely outstanding
Creepy
Such excellent, iconic 80's imagery. Miss those times so much it hurts. Nothing like the 1980's. ......and Prince eating his own tongue like a hotdog is pure art.
Feets ?

@@jn4756But many, many people who lived then feel that too. It was simply a better time in general.
One of the few BEST MOST POWERFUL songs out there... Everything about this song... TO BAD not many people listen
Love it so much 💜
With time, this song continues to become increasingly relevant...
"Superman where are you now?" Damn good question.
Probably refers to Jesus Christ.

Even after so many years, this clip is still nightmare material.
Yep, I remember the first time I watched this video I was recovering from a nose surgery, it was so disturbing that I actually thought it had been some kind of hallucination produced by the anesthesia. I love this song, I love Phil Collins' voice but I truly hate this video.
@@poisonjjivy i saw it on MTV when i was a little kid and I was confused and terrified
@@poisonjjivy haha omg I can imagine:)
Best Video ever🤪🤪🤪😂😂
Its funny, I was very easy to scare as a kid, but I loved this video
Immer noch aktuell, auch in 2024.
2023, can't you see this still the land of confusion
Lo veo, lo veo.🤪👍
Those people saying "this fits 2020 so well", the WHOLE MESSAGE of the song is that nothing changes, ever. Year in, year out, it's all the same shit.
Is it? I don't see how. Seems to me more about like, the media and politicians are lying to the people, saying things are better when they're not; and that it's time for the people to rise up and force change to happen. That the world won't improve until we make it better.
I suppose that's kinda close to what you described.
Actually thinking about it some more, you're dead right. Nothing changes unless we make it change; and we never make it change.
It's actually the opposite, which makes it more depressing. They make it very clear that this is meant to be the turning point. That their "generation will make it right" and that they aren't making empty promises. 35 years later and we see now they instead got absorbed by the machine and let things get worse.
In retrospect its' a song about stasis, how nothing changes. But at the time, I don't think that was the intention.
@@Crawver No, I'm prety sure this was meant to be timeless not just for Generation X.
If that generation fails, its up to the next one, if that generation fails, so forth and so forth.
Names changes, identity changes, actors change...but the aspects of ego, greed and what i like to call "sport mentality" is pretty much constant and can take any form.
You're not gonna turn this entire rock around, but its still important to strive. We can't knock of every dictator, strongman and autocrat of the planet(exceptions are called for with all the good and bad that follows).
But if we get enough people to stop putting "Supermen" on pedestals, then at the very least we won't make it worse.
So...nothing changes?...not true...it could be worse.
@@RupertAndCheese cry more its funny
i am 14 years old, german and i LOVE this song. I heard it with my father and... i still love it... Great song! ☺

2023, - and nothing has changed!!!! What a powerfull Lyric!!!
Nothing has changed in the sense that you're still sitting on your hands and doing nothing. Listen to the song again.
I‘m so thankful that I grow up in the 80‘s with this powerful music! At this time i thought, music like this is normal and it will go on like this forever. Now i know, that this were special times with very special, everlasting music.
I really miss the times when I was playing in my room as a child while mom was cleaning the household listening to Genesis or Phil in general.
And that's why music is so great, it takes you back there.
X2
Teenager here, funny how this song is so true today
I also have no clue how todays kids don’t like this music and judge my music taste for liking this stuff, it’s bloody awesome and so much better than most of the mainstream trash today.
Collins' vocs & drums cuts the whole mix through! 🎸🥁🎹🎙👍👏
The visuals are more disturbing than disturbed. Imagine the disturbed song w these visuals.
+Vaas Montenegro YES
And replace the eighties leaders with modern ones. Potential gold there.
The visuals aren't too disturbing to me. For those who aren't aware, the video was made by the producers of a British satirical show called Spitting Image - which used latex puppets to mock politicians and celebrities of the time. It was a running joke that Reagan was so 'out of it' that he could hit the 'nuke' button by mistake at any time.
That is actually a pretty good idea
One of the best songs of the 80s with one of the absolute weirdest music videos of the 80s.
definitely
Um yeah we get it, it’s from the 80s. Don’t have to say it twice.
Shit song. Great video
It's called Spitting Image it was a program that took the pee out of everyone.
Good music ,1990s tanga taakudyamari
37 years and almost nothing changed in this regard. Including the hopes of the current generation that they will do it right, but they won't. I hate being experienced and bitter.
one of the best music videos ever made.
Who's listening in 2020??? 🤘🤘🤘
All people that loves great music!
🤘
So, this is not Distributed's song? Finally, I know it...
Bravo! Это музыка, которая прошла проверку временем!
The 80s were right this is a land of confusion
I hope people see the message in this song and realise that it's more relevant than ever.

+Eddy Damaskus Yeah well, it isn't too late to hurt the people who fucked us all.
A great song and one of the best music videos ever made. A classic.
Listening to this while the world has gone next level insane!
This is not a song…it’s an incredible forecast!!!
Well what he sings about was the past, present and future. We're animals, we'll never change.
Nos vamos todos a tomar por el culo, con ésta gentuza que gobierna el mundo. Que pena habiendo para todos.GENESIS O APOCALIPSIS TOTAL.
I would say it's a commentary that's ever valid.
timeless lyrics. sad but true.
No that was metallica
We're still living in a land of confusion!
"My generation will put it right"..... Yeah, sure.
2:17 - I always liked that little nudge to the audience, that there are 2 Phil's puppets - one singing and one drumming.
Lol, never noticed that before!
The story I heard was that the spitting image lot had to make a new puppet out of phil Collins because the old puppet didn't have eyes, because the old phil puppet was always crying into his arms and was "so sad". Then they thought, well we already have the old puppet might as well have him pop up in the background and have him do a bit of drumming where the audience can't notice that the puppet don't have eyes.
I liked the part where the guy is putting ketcup on his tongue and Reagan gets hit on the head by Nancy. Today's politicians are more dangerous than the 80's ones were.
@@borinakoune1803 I like that scene as well. I think the puppet was the artist "Prince". I never got if that scene had any deeper meaning, "we are eating our own words"
Todays politicians are not more dangerous than the 80's ones were, their evils are just more out in the open and the peoples outrage is nonexistant. We have 24-7 news which makes secrets impossible, but makes the people in a constant state of blasèd jadedness. Believe you me the evils of most politicians in the 80's is still 30-35 years later the main cause of our troubles.
@@borinakoune1803 i wouldn't consider them more dangerous, it's that everyone as a whole moved more to the right
Today's democrats are yesterdays Republicans
Lyrics:
I must've dreamed a thousand dreams
Been haunted by a million screams
But I can hear the marching feet
They're moving into the street
Now did you read the news today?
They say the danger's gone away
But I can see the fire's still alight
Burning into the night
There's too many men
Too many people
Making too many problems
And not much love to go 'round
Can't you see this is a land of confusion?
Ooh this is the world we live in (Oh-oh-oh)
And these are the hands we're given (Oh-oh-oh)
Use them and let's start trying (Oh-oh-oh)
To make it a place worth living in
Ooh Superman, where are you now?
When everything's gone wrong somehow
The men of steel, men of power
Are losing control by the hour
This is the time, this is the place
So we look for the future
But there's not much love to go 'round
Tell me why, this is a land of confusion
This is the world we live in (Oh-oh-oh)
And these are the hands we're given (Oh-oh-oh)
Use them and let's start trying (Oh-oh-oh)
To make it a place worth living in
I remember long ago
Ooh, when the sun was shining
Yes and the stars were bright
All through the night
And the sound of your laughter
As I held you tight
So long ago
I won't be coming home tonight
My generation will put it right
We're not just making promises
That we know, we'll never keep
Too many men
There's too many people
Making too many problems
And not much love to go 'round
Can't you see this is a land of confusion?
Now this is the world we live in (Oh-oh-oh)
And these are the hands we're given (Oh-oh-oh)
Use them and let's start trying (Oh-oh-oh)
To make it a place worth fighting for
This is the world we live in (Oh-oh-oh)
And these are the names we're given (Oh-oh-oh)
Stand up and let's start showing (Oh-oh-oh)
Just where our lives are going to

The song is more relevant than ever 😎🙏
I just saw the version of this by "Disturbed" and I'm feeling very, very sad because nothing at all has really changed has it? I bought this when it came out (I'm 47 now) and my 20 year old son is living in a world that's no different than it was back in 1989 when I was 20. When the Berlin wall fell my dad was full of hope that our generation would be the one that saw a world at peace but now I think it won't happen in my son's lifetime or for that matter his children's if and when they come along. I bet someone could release this in 2043 (when my lad will be 47) and it will STILL be totally relevant. What a crying shame.
I'm afraid the clocks are in danger of turning even farther then that, 70-110 years even.
Fucking hell please let me be wrong.
Human nature doesn't change. So you get the same old problems and conflicts over and over again down the ages.
We are making slow progress with medicine, science, crimefighting and peace. It's hard to say how much of the enviroment can be saved but there are definitely hopes there too. Sure, there will always be too many people making too many problems so it can be hard to be hopefull.
Amen brother. Same age and I agree. If anything, it's worse today? Gadgets and Internet is better, but that's about all. Employers treat us like dirt, nobody can trust our Leaders.. I do worry about the future for our kids?
I doubt it will be relevant in 2043. At that point in human history mankind will look back, yearning for the era of peace.
Enjoy while you can. The clock is ticking.

Back then it was just a land of confusion, but now it's a land of insanity.

Check out Disturbed - the vengeful one
Is a good cont' from this vid just like the disturbed cover of this song, heh
Sorry but no, it is not the ´land of insanity´. The problem is that people are sane. They are just idiots. Sane idiots. So when before you had ´land of confusion´, now you have land of idiocy, stupidity, intolerance and ignorance.
In a word, morons!
And this applies to both sides of the political spectrum, mind you. I´m not biased to any side, I´m an equal opportunity ´retard´ caller.
@Octavian I think it went downhill after the Kennedy and Martin Luther King assassinations.
What this planet needs is a good old fashion planetary disaster, that wipes out 80% of the population. That way the survivors can start fresh, free of all the bad blood, and with a new sense of unity. I hope Apophis hits. Fuck this shit!

the music video is a masterpiece in itself, let alone the song and its lyrics
I adore this song and this surreal video, hehe.
A timeless song like many others by Genesis.
By Disturbed*
I'd argue that this era of Genesis was part of the decline of the group. This is a pop song by Phil Collins and band. Although a big fan of Genesis including 4 post-Gabriel albums, I walked out of the Invisible Touch tour gig at Wembley when it dawned on me how dire the music was becoming - not all of it, but most tracks. The subsequent album was worse. More worthless than timeless, IMO.

Best video for a song I've ever seen until this day!! I remember the day it came out and we were watching it on old TV,.. 1984 ...sure thought it was good, but wayching it again today, I realize it was pure genius ! and of course the song.. THAT BAND!!!
This is really too good for our world) one of the best songs in the whole world. The best by words.
The lyrics are so on point. Unfortunately this song will be relevant until the end. Love you all.
Then again it's so easy to sit back, fault pick, offer no solutions just sing about problems. Meanwhile raking in cash by the million, sitting in their Ivory Tower(s), offering nothing but cynicism.
Yes, the end could be when the Nuke button will be pressed accidentaly...
The end......is near.
@@grenville64 well they are singers. Nowdays, anyone can spread a message about today problems, it's just harder to fix them.
Come on, the puppetry in this is goddamn outstanding. So many different puppets, so geniusly designed, and decently animated.
The number of those puppets I think is what amazes me the most. These aren't drawings, you can't easily come up with them on the spot according to necessity, you gotta draw them, build them, perform, and some of them are only on screen for fractions of a second.
man i wish they brought spitting image back
Yeah, they are great works of art and craft
@@Victor-jx7lt they did last year
To be fair, only two of these puppets had to be made for this video specifically (two of the band members), the rest was taken from the Spitting Image show

This is the place
So we look for the future
But there's not much love to go round
Tell me why, this is a land of confusion.
This is the world we live in
And these are the hands we're given
Use them and let's start trying
To make it a place worth living in.
I remember long ago -
Ooh when the sun was shining
Yes and the stars were bright
All through the night
And the sound of your laughter
As i held you tight
So long ago -
I won't be coming home tonight
My generation will put it right
We're not just making promises
That we know, we'll never keep.
Too many men
There's too many people
Making too many problems
And not much love to go round
Can't you see
This is a land of confusion.
Now this is the world we live in
And these are the hands we're given
Use them and let's start trying
To make it a place worth fighting for.
This is the world we live in
And these are the names we're given
Stand up and let's start showing
Just where our lives are going to.

I remember when it came out.
The beginning of MTV, in the 80`s.
Shit, am I getting old???
No never (I'm 29 )
It was not the "beginning of MTV".
MTV began 5 years before this song and video was released.
Pacero I was five or six years old I guess. If this might be a help for you: I'm asking this myself, too.
Pacero MTV now is very shit .
Yes. Me too... 😁
Nothings changed
Classic track the times we living so true
I just saw that Genesis retired, yesterday (26/03/22) Genesis played their last show in London. I love Genesis and this song so much!! We're in a land of confusion!! Thank you Genesis for all.
