    Fantastic song! His voice sounds great. I liked Phil Collins vocals but this guy really brought his own special thing to the sound of the band

    An under-rated classic from Genesis, which had sadly often been ignored, as it came from the brief period of 1997-8, after Phil Collins had left. Forget their history for a moment & just enjoy the track, it's a great song! The drumming is great, Ray Wilson sings it well & one of my favourite Genesis tracks ever, along with "Land Of Confusion".

    • @firepower158
      @firepower158 9 ปีที่แล้ว +7

      You are absolutely correct. I could not have expressed it better myself. Ray Wilson was born in 1967, around the time of the genesis of Genesis. ( Ha Ha ) . Please don't send me to the Congo. I might pick up the Ebola virus.

    I know that when the band reformed for touring purposes it was under the Collin's era line-up but I would honestly love to hear a second Genesis album with Ray Wilson, because his era is massively different from the other two eras.
    Gabriel - Avant garde, prog rock pieces with some great storytelling (Ie- The Music Box)
    Collins - Much more commercial and accessible. A pop-rock sort of feel with the odd experimental track like 'Mama' infused in.
    The Wilson era is a lot more loud and powerful rock. Its so different but still has that amazing Genesis feel there from Banks and Rutherford.

      Exactly! I fell in love with Ray's voice in high school, for me Ray is Stiltskin not Genesis.
      I had the opportunity to sing with Ray about 3 years ago and that's what I told him, that he's a Stiltskin voice for me :) I love his voice! Spend about two days rehersing with him, such a nice human!

    Lyrics:
    You say that I put chains on you
    But I don't think that's really true
    But if you want to be free from me
    You gotta lose me in another world
    Send me to the Congo I'm free to leave
    There's always somewhere anybody can lead
    Send me to the Congo you have to believe
    You can do it if you wanna just do what you please
    Like a soldier ant
    I will wait for the signal to act
    To take a walk right through the door
    If you don't want me here any more
    Send me to the Congo I'm free to leave
    There's always somewhere anybody can lead
    Send me to the Congo you have to believe
    You can do it if you wanna just do what you please
    Into my heart you came
    And gave a whole new meaning to my life
    Into my world you brought a light
    I thought it never would go out
    Send me to the Congo I'm free to leave
    There's always somewhere anybody can lead
    Send me to the Congo you have to believe
    You can do it if you wanna just do what you please
    You can send me to the Congo I'm free to leave
    There's always somewhere anybody can lead
    Yes you can send me to the Congo, you have to believe
    You can do it if you wanna just do what you please
    I would never be the one to say you had no reason
    To want me somewhere else far far away
    But someday you may understand, someday you will see
    That someone who would die for you is all I've ever been
    Congo the Congo, if that's how it's got to be
    Congo the Congo, if that's what you want from me
    I would never be the one to say you had no reason
    To want me somewhere else far far away
    Someday you may understand someday you will see

      Tutto l'Lp sottostimato, quasi indifferente alla critica. Forse la rinuncia di Phil ha fatto pensare a molti che Calling all Stations fosse un lavoro stabilito e quindi da fare per forza. Poi trovo i commenti ridicoli che fanno i paragoni "se i pezzi li avesse cantati Phil o Peter"... Ognuno ha un suo stile e per me Ray Wilson si è rivelato un ottimo interprete, perfettamente calato nelle atmosfere create da Banks e Rutherford...
