I'm a Christian too and I this love song, Phil's one too. Nothing wrong with Christians having a go at the Church especially on subjects of Hypocrisy. Good on him!
This song isn't anti-Christian. I'm guessing most Christians hate the TVangelicals as much as one else because of the pure hypocrisy and the way they abuse the religion for their own gain.
@@sixstarhorizon295 Yes. The one time Jesus lost his temper was because of people profiteering off of faith. It's ironic that these televangelists (especially those "prosperity" preachers) seem to have forgotten one of the things Luther was against: selling indulgences for salvation.
That's what I was going to say... and you see it in every one of Phil's concerts especially. Even now he never misses a single note. The man - who originally had no desire to be a singer - turned out to be one of the greatest.
At least as good... the album didn't have that insane guitar solo! The live version of this song on The Shorts (same tour, different show) is one of the songs that got me playing guitar 25 years ago. And to this day I still have no idea how to play that or even get that tone from my Strat.
Most live concerts that are filmed have the audio recorded and then mix/edited in the studio before being release to the public. I absolutely love Phil Collins and Genesis but this is definitely been played with by masterful engineers in a recording studio! Still a killer band though x
I couldn't agree more with you. I am Muslim, and this song applies to many Muslim preachers, who exploit religion to fill their own pockets with money.
@@sonacphotos "luckily im atheist" is a brave statement. i disagree though,its stupid to completely reject the idea of a creator. its more likely that there is a creator,than that there isnt. your money goes into your own pocket? HAHAHAHAHAH delusional
@@victorchb1 it's just as stupid to believe in a creator. There's no proof that he doesn't exist, but there's simply no proof that he exists either. If you ask me then I think religion is a human conception created to battle depression and the lack of reason to live in harsh times.
@@MGG-wf2ii Do you look at an old building and think "It is stupid to believe that someone created that, it has been there since I was born and I didn't see anyone create it, it must have just randomly built itself over millions of years"?
This was late 80ies and early 90ies (I know the song was from 1991, but I don´t know, when exactly the idea for the song came...) you could so much more than today, all was somehow more free than today...
@@Marcus-l8d I think what he or she is saying is that Genesis has called it quits forever and it’s a sad state of affairs because Phil Collins health has gone downhill.
Remember the episode of Miami Vice where he was a con man who wound up being a tv preacher at the end of the episode? That was hilarious. Always liked this guy.
Life is a rat race, chasing easy money Life is a rat race, chasing your tail Life is a rat race, chasing easy money Running around, you know it never fails It was originally recorded during the _Hello, I Must Be Going_ sessions for the Rodney Dangerfield film _Easy Money,_ but was instead retooled as "The Man with the Horn", and released as the B-side to "Sussudio" or "One More Night", depending on which country you live in. The original "Life is a Rat Race" version was resurrected for Phil's episode of _Miami Vice_ titled "Phil the Shill".
I’m really impressed with Phil’s vocals here. They don’t sound exactly the same, but the tone of his voice and pitch are like dead on for the most part.
Being a Christian for a long time, I would not listen to this song, because I thought they were mocking God, but now knowing the Bible, it speaks of Jesus saying "there will be ones who say we healed in your name, we cast out demons in your name and raised the dead in your name and truly I will say in that day, 'depart from Me workers of sin, I never knew you." Even though there are sincere ones out there, false teachers and prophets are EVERYWHERE! Don't blame Jesus...He loves us!
The song is not a critic about Jesus, is about the people of the church (False Papa, teachers, prophets, and what else) that "worked in the name of HIM."
@@xEricTheGothx You're a fucking idiot for not letting people believe what they want. There are damn satanists who burn and torture people out there to honour devil. Yet Christians are the bad ones for literary being nice to everyone (at least most of them) because that's what God wants us to do.
🥀Amazing Story about the way I see them on T.V. oh yeah I have to agree with you!!! Thanks for posting this video it's priceless and unbelievable I love this song. 🥀☝️
I was lucky to hear and watch this fantastic band in 1969 or 1970 in Schorndorf - South Germany. Their sound at that time was amazing! And it was the complete Genesis Band at that time, what a luck!

One of the most underrated songs ever. It's simply brilliant
Not a great piece of music, but tremendous satire.
what is not great with music ?
abum91 It's very simple and repetitive music.
and clearest message ever, so.. masterpiece
Listen to that drum pocket, though. Very few bands could pull this off.
Phil is one of the best vocalists and drummers in the world. Truly gifted guy. It's a shame about his declining health.
I'm a Christian too and I this love song, Phil's one too. Nothing wrong with Christians having a go at the Church especially on subjects of Hypocrisy. Good on him!
Chris Buckley Christ would want us to question lies
This song isn't anti-Christian. I'm guessing most Christians hate the TVangelicals as much as one else because of the pure hypocrisy and the way they abuse the religion for their own gain.
I think Petra's "Judas' Kiss" really applies to Conservative Christians who have fallen under the Trump spell.

Ozzy Osbourne did something just as cold as this song. Check out the song "Miracle Man."
Genesis knew how to kick right in the balls of this corrupted society.
Do you hear voices in your head? Yes, Jesus speaks to me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I've been talking to Jesus all my life!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Sign of a good group , live concert sounds as good as the recording !

He played the Clapton Strat into a Seymour Duncan convertible amp and spiced it up with some juice from a Marshall Guv'nor pedal.

Pretty slick video effects at their concert considering it was 1992.

He didn't enunciate it clearly here, but I love the line, "Get on your knees and start payin'!"
It looks to me like he says "prayin' "
prayin
Thats the funny part that he says payin instead of prayin, its on purpose
Best line in the song besides the you wont find me practicing what im preaching part
Best line is just do as I say don't do as I do.
Fantastic vocals 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
My God...that crowd....not one empty seat.......they were just that good........
Love this song. So true (coming from someone who grew up in the faith healer pentecostal movement).
What a talent Phil is
The rest of the band too !! 😅😉
He sounds great live
Ikr
LOVE that guitar solo at 5:30
HEAL!!! HEAL!!!
Brings back happy memories, saw their last night at Earls Court on the tour, absolutely epic! 😄👍

Love the guitar solo!!!
Wow this is really amazing and the energy!! Like wow ! Phil seems to really love this song! I do!

There is a DVD of this concert, my brother has it, I would expect Amazon has it if you want to buy it.

I wish people still write songs like these without others being too whiney about it.
Fucking Epic!!!!!!!!!!
C'est grandiose.
Not too many later Genesis songs where Mike chooses to play bass live. Usually he plays the guitar parts and lets Daryl play the Bass parts. Where as Daryl usually plays the guitar parts written and played by Hackett. But you can tell by listening to the bass line why Mike chose to play it.
If I could time travel I’d wanna see this concert live. To hell with classic vaudeville or Ancient Rome or even killing baby Hitler. This concert looks awesome.
Is this concert available on Blu-ray and in decent sound? If it is......I want it..........
Belongs in a stadium.
Saw them at the Silverdome, 1993-ish
Very nice Phil Collins !!!!!!
If I saw this live I would have shat myself.
Thanks so much for posting these, do you have any more of the tour? :D
Alright Phil, we get it. Do the song son!
Touch the screen ! Touch the screen!
