Looks like Michael Cera playing bass for Michael Rutherford

Musically speaking, it's quite good. The vocals are lacking greatly as it's totally a disconnect with the lyrics. As difficult as the song is to replicate musically, it is equally trying vocally. And this is where it falls short. All hail Peter Gabriel.

Good cover of a difficult song!

Marc Schlesinger

Very nice Cover. :) Phish did very well.

Awesome

Good or bad....I thought quite good. Can you imagine playhing Watcher of the Skies in front of Genesis? How can you possibly blame the singer when he had to take on 2 roles, HOF Singer (2014, Gabriel) and HOF member Steve Hackett? This ain't exactly "Woolly Bully!"

Alan Pearson

This is toe curlingly bad - the Mellotron is being played by a robot - can't he hear the Hammond is never played by TB on "FAST" Leslie? And Phish couldn't sing to save his life - shouting and out of tune.This should be in the Rock and Roll Hall of Shame, no wonder Genesis looked so embarrassed!

Kevin Williams

POOR GENESIS SUCH A HORRIBLE BAND PLAYING TRIBUTE TO THEM

Electrocosmicfuzz

Fuck the rock and roll hall of fame. This is a great tribute though

The thing that kills me about this is that people think they are trying replicating the original song, where in reality Phish was not. Phish has always been my favorite band, and I understand why a lot of people don't like this. Could they have replicated the song the way it was originally recorded? Yes. But understand that this band will NEVER replicate a song the way it was originally played. If anyone who watches this video thinks that they failed at duplicating the recording, you are watching it for the wrong reason or have never listened to Phish before. If I wanted to hear a song that sounded like the original, I would listen to the original. I am not trying to sound like a "diehard fan", but I actually enjoyed their cover of this and wish that they would play it live. Of course, their are some serious points to criticize. Such as how Trey's voice was kind of off. I honestly don't mind that, because I think it adds a little bit of personality (and because I know that he usually is a pretty good singer the rest of the time). In all honesty, considering the fact that they had the honor of inducting Genesis into the RRHoF and that they had to perform in front of them, it was pretty good. I am pretty sure most musicians would get a little shaky in that sort of scenario, and I think Phish pulled it off pretty great.

I'm not rushing to compliments. It sounds more like the sound balance and recording is godawful than them being godawful. Phish probably did a good job in the actual event.Still, it sounds awful.

jay mcmahon

this was terrible!!!! keyboard player rushed the intro,theguitar player missed whole parts,singer was bad. the only ones that were on were the drummer and base player!!!! even Collins was suffering through it by the look on his face

PLEASE just play the original and don't even think about trying to cover this gem.(especially the singer sucks ass)

The RRHoF is a joke. The only reason Genesis got inducted was their big fluffy 80s hits. If they'd broken up after, say "Trick of the Tail" (my personal fave), Jann & Co wouldn't have recognized their existence (much less their prog contrib) AT ALL.So, having Phish hit the stage and throw this "90%-of-the-audience-is-clueless" tune into their faces was AWESOME. I'm not really a PhishPhan, but I have a feeling that somebody in the band was/is an early Genesis fan, and already had this song down. I think the performance was respectful and spot-on. Yeah the intro was time-compressed, and Trey's vox were sorta yikes. Get over it. I'm glad they did this song, and not fucking "Abacab" or some other 80s POS. This was trolling the RRHoF to the nth level, and this 35-year Genesis fan is glad.

Page should have sung this instead of Trey.

I agree that it was a weird choice to pick Phish for this song. Other than Trey's vocals, I thought they did a pretty good job playing a song that is probably very difficult to perform live, in front of four out of five members of Genesis, no less! Nerve wracking, to say the least...

Adam Floro

If they were trying to honor Genesis, the lead singer would be playing a character, not playing a guitar...

squonkk

not to shabby, jam band, looks like phil gave it the nod! Jam On!

I have great respect for Phish as a band and for Trey as a musician, but this lead vocal is agony. 5 stars for Fishman, though.
