The Reviews about Evidence Of Autumn (page 1/1)
------ performed by Genesis

Great song by a great songwriter. | Reviewer: Anonymous | 9/12/2008

This is a great song. For another instrumental piano version (the first time I heard it) look at "Genesis for Two Grand Pianos". It's awesome and even more haunting than the Phil Collins vocal version.

So quintessentially English... | Reviewer: Dave Gray | 7/23/2008

Everything about this song evokes the essence of England...a lost love, melancholia, green and brown autumns, "Gray's Elegy in a Churchyard," nostalgia and pensivesness. I love it. Strangely, it never received much exposure in England and only appeared on the North American version of 3 Sides Live.

a great song | Reviewer: Budi Rahardjo | 12/13/2007

Yes, this is a great song. I played it over and over again. I can feel the sadness in the song. Just like Autumn, that's fading ...

A true masterpiece | Reviewer: Wots | 11/16/2007

No doubt about it: of course this song can not compete with the solo sections of for example Firth of fifth or Cinema show, but those are the 'long songs'.
Evidence of autumn is a three-and-a-half-minute piece of music that should belong in all major top 5 Genesis polls ever.
This is as one of the other reviewers said a perfect example of Tony Banks' masterpieces.
In balance, musically as well as regarding the lyrics as well.
Thanks Tony !

Evidence of autumn/Heathaze | Reviewer: Richard Rawles | 7/8/2006

Never heard of this song until I downloaded it on limewire. Instantly recognisable as a Tony Banks composition and very similar to Heathaze from 'Duke'

Evidence of a good song signed Tony Banks | Reviewer: Chris | 8/19/2004

I really appreciate the good fit between the lyrics and the musical composition by Tony banks, invoking the Autumn, the countryside, the bitterness of the main character. At the moment where he says "insane", the music becomes surprisingly joyful. That's what I appreciate in many Tony Banks composition : his capacity for non conventional composition (verse chorus verse ...) and his ability to express mixed feelings so perfectly.

Another good example is "Calling all stations"

I regret that he is not as well known a composer as Phil Collins.
