Now, this one... the original Genesis song is one of my favorite songs by one of my favorite bands of all time. So this was coming eventually.
But I'm never playing this again if I can help it because the right hand is just playing constant sixteenth notes the whole time in descending arpeggios. (It was easier than trying to play "The Lamb Lies Down On Broadway" before I knew that the intro piano part is the right AND left hand playing over each other, but only slightly.) My tendons scream e'en now. HOW DID TONY BANKS DO THIS LIVE EVERY NIGHT ON TOUR.
Basically, I played piano and sang, then overdubbed the second vocal line and added a "bass" (piano track taken down an octave so it sounds like a bass, far more than my piano's bass range is in tune). Every track is a first take. I like that.
Maybe every word isn't perfect and in tune. But I do it with gusto. That's what counts.
