Band Name Origins:
- Genesis originally came together as an acoustic quartet, who had intended to work as songwriters rather than work as a band. This explains why they had no name, no rhythm section and no live experience when they submitted their demo tape to Jonathan King in the hope of securing a publishing deal. It was King who developed the quartet into a proper band, got them signed to Decca Records and named them Genesis, according to his belief that he had "created" them. The name appeared on their first single which was released a year before "From Genesis To Revelation", however the band's name did not appear on the sleeve of their debut album, hence the misunderstanding that it was a gospel album. Submitted by: neptunevsmars
- The members were from two different bands; Anon and Garden Wall. Their first album had no band name, because they hadn't settled on one. The album was called "From Genesis to Revelations" and got misplaced into the gospel section of many record stores. Johnathan King, who had signed the band, suggested shortening this and calling themselves "Genesis". Thus, their second album (the first to use their signiture sound. The first was a BeeGees pastiche geared toward getting a redording contract) was called Trespass and had the band listed as Genesis. Submitted by: Tim

Former Career:
Name | New Career | Comments & Submitter Name |
| "Phil Collins" | "Child Actor" | He was acclaimed especially for his role in theatrical performances of "Oliver". When he was a teenager he made his major motion picture debut as simply a face in the crowd in the Beatles movie "A Hard Day's Night". He also learned how to play several instruments. He played in numerous bands and he played "percussion" somewhere on George Harrison's triple album "All Things Shall Pass". After that he joined Genesis and kept on playing in side projects, his solo career and more - long before it became fashionable to do so. And you know the rest of the story... - I Love Sussudio |
Better Off Solo?:
Name | New Career | Comments & Submitter Name |
| "Mike Rutherford" | "Found side success in 1985 with Mike + the Mechanics, but in 1982, as a solo artist, released an album called 'Acting Very Strange' that produced a Top 40 hit in Canada called 'Maxine'" | - whistledog |
| "Steve Hackett" | "The lead guitarist ("Nursery Crime" to "Seconds Out"). Hacket went on to make better Genesis albums than Genesis (Just compare "Duke" with "Spectral Mornings" and you'll smell what I'm cooking." | - royal pfizbin |
| "Peter Gabriel" | "Peter's career wasn't really going all that well, commercially, until the release of his solo album 'So'. Genesis did better with Phil Collins, who has now also gone solo -- except Collins basically sold out." | - Eric |
| "Peter Gabriel" | "The singer who left before Phil Collins got the gig. " | - Michael E Cormier |
| "Phil Collins" | "He did pretty good for awhile after he left Genesis (better than they did without him). His last few albums are pretty bad though." | - ChuckyG |
Song Titles Not Used as Lyrics:
Song Name | Comments & Submitter Name |
| "It's A Shame" | In the lyrics, Phil Collins always inserts the word "just" into the title. In other words, you hear "It's JUST a shame," not "It's a shame." - Jonathan S. |
| "Man On The Corner" | Phil Collins inserts the word "there" into the title. Instead of "Man ON the corner" he says "Man THERE on the corner." - Isac |
| "Squonk" | "At least the word is defined on the album lyric's sheet, but it still sounds like a working title that the band just could not be bothered to ramp-up." - princejellyfish |
| "Firth of Fifth" | I would still like to know whet that means, because they don't even mention it on this song. - Paul Warren |

She seems to have an invisible touch, yeah
She reaches in, and grabs right hold of your heart
She seems to have an invisible touch, yeah
It takes control and slowly tears you apart
She seems to have an invisible touch
And though she will mess up your life,
You still want her just the same, and now I know
She has a built in ability
To take everything she sees
And now it seems I've fallen, fallen for her
She seems to have an invisible touch, yeah
She reaches in, and grabs right hold of your heart
She seems to have an invisible touch, yeah
It takes control and slowly tears you apart

"Land of Confusion "
Better Lyrics:
There's too many troops
Too many Russians
Making too many problems
And not much peace to be found
West can see
Ukraine's a land of intrusion
This is the land they live in
And Putin's not forgiven
East Ukraine Is worth fighting
To stop further Russian aggression
Too many Russians
Making too many problems
And not much peace to be found
West can see
Ukraine's a land of intrusion
This is the land they live in
And Putin's not forgiven
East Ukraine Is worth fighting
To stop further Russian aggression
Original Lyrics:
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
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
Too many people
Making too many problems
And not much love to go round
Can't you see
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

| "Just a Job to Do"
The Lyrics: Keep running, keep running; city to city
Even if you're innocent You can cause too much embarrassment And though your heart is breaking And you know there's no mistaking For you feel your life line breaking Can feel your hands are shaking No one answers the telephone You can never ever go home alone And though your heart is breaking And you know there's no mistaking The footsteps close behind (*** synthesizer blasts ***) Why: You keep running and never afford to settle anywhere because you know too much, you've seen too much and dead birds don't sing. You call for help and there's nobody answering. The assassin sees you now, he draws a bead on you. Here he comes! The harder you run, the harder you fall.

Lighter Side of Serious Bands:
"Jesus He Knows Me"
In 1985 Phil Collins guested on MIAMI VICE as Phil the Shill. He came to the USA to avoid UK taxes and swindle some more. At episode's end he fled with a suitcase full of money and later appeared on cable TV as televangalist Father Phil. He wore a horribly bad toupee to hide his real life baldness on top. It looked unbelievably ridiculous. Fast forward to 1992. The band Genesis puts out a funny/accurate lampoon of TV preachers and their ripoff practices in the video for the above named song. All 3 members of Genesis are ministry thieves in the music video ("Call now! Pray later! Dial 1-800-GENE-SIS!") and even though Mike Rutherford and Tony Banks have full heads of hair they are wearing lousy toupees just like Phil is. This is probably a comic element.

What A Band is Best Known For (aside from their music):
"Rare Show of Anger"
During a late 1981 gig in Rotterdam, Netherlands Genesis played some older prog material and some new stuff from the ABACAB and DUKE albums and some fans were booing at the new 80s radio-friendlier songs and throwing stuff on the stage. During an intermission the 3 band members came to a mic and mentioned about the boo-ers and they said that those naysayers can meet them after the show and 'we'll kick the fucking shit outta ye!'. Genesis is not known to be a bunch of rude boys but they sure got peeved that night. Watch out!

TV and Movies Mentioned in Lyrics:
"Jesus He Knows Me"
The Lyrics: But I can get you a Pocketful of Miracles, if you promise to be good...try to be nice.
Why: "Pocketful of Miracles" was Frank Capra's last film he directed which also stars the late great Peter Falk. I wonder if Phil Collins pulled a John Lennon with this song (watching TV while writing a song) since he had all the members of Genesis dressed like Rev. Ernest Angely's sons if he ever had triplets (And the vid has Genesis on Channel 55...which in Cleveland, is CW's WBNX Affiliate...owned by Rev. Angely as well)! And the chariactures of Tammy Faye Bakker and Jessica Hahn are in the "Jesus he knows me" vid....
