It plays as a collection of short stories, fables, and fairy tales, and it is also a rock record, which naturally makes it quite extraordinary as a collection, but also as a set of individual songs. Genesis has never been as direct as they've been on the fanciful yet hook-driven 'I Know What I Like (In Your Wardrobe)' — apart from the fluttering flutes in the fade-out, it could easily be mistaken for a glam single — or as achingly fragile as on 'More Fool Me,' sung by Phil Collins. It's this delicate balance and how the album showcases the band's narrative force on a small scale as well as large that makes this their arguable high-water mark.\" \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cpre dir=\"ltr\" id=\"tw-target-text\" data-placeholder=\"Translation\" class=\"tw-data-text tw-text-large tw-ta\"\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"en\" class=\"Y2IQFc\"\u003e1.
