Notes: If you ask Chester Thompson which is the favorite Genesis song he has played, he answers quite regulary: "Throwing It All Away". That may seem a little strange, but can the drummer be wrong? The song quickly transformed from a rather unremarkable pop ballad to a stadium anthem that was still a weighty part of the set in 2007 and also later in 2021 and 2022. Most recently, the song was also played regularly by Mike + The Mechanics.. |
