Here's one of my absolutely favorite Genesis albums! Going to have to go with "Wot Gorilla?", it's a nice instrumental, but I prefer the other two preceding "Afterglow".

Definitely Your Own Special Way.

I love a lot of Genesis.  I even love Who Dunnit, Illegal Alien, and most things from CaS.

But there are two Genesis songs that I actively dislike.   One is Snowbound from ATTW3, and the other is Your Own Special Way.

All In A Mouse's Night

This is going to be one that's going to go early, and it makes me sad.   

This is easily top 3 on the album for me, but I know that I'm in the almost non-existent minority.   :-\

I like All in a Mouse's Night.  Peter Gabriel was really big on storytelling in Genesis, to the point where the lyrics were sometimes little plays with various parts sung by different chraracters.  I like how they brought that back one last time for All in a Mouse's Night.  Yeah, the story itself is silly.  They often were.

Unquiet slumbers. I feel it's more like an intro to "...In that quiet earth" so on it's own it just doesn't do as much for me.

I also like "All in a mouse's night"  :tup

I can't understand the hate for YOSW.

Probably because it just seems to go on too long.  Not one, but two bridges, both fully realized, which means that there are four verses altogether.  It's a pretty song, and I like it well enough, but at six minutes, it's a bit tedious for a love song.
