Guessed Right

In the latest Guess the Artist post, the artist was stamped onto the official video for "Tonight, Tonight, Tonight."  Genesis, when Phil Collins took over for Peter Gabriel.

Genesis, with either front man, has an extensive history so in this post, I thought I would share the album behind the song.


"Tonight, Tonight, Tonight" is the second track from Genesis' 13th album, Invisible Touch, released in June 1986.  "Tonight, Tonight, Tonight" was released as the album's fourth single in March 1987.  The song reached No. 3 in the U.S. and No. 18 in the UK.  (Wikipedia)

Invisible Touch reached No. 1 on the UK Albums Chart and No. 3 on Billboard 200.  

Five singles from the album reached the Top 5 on Billboard Hot 100 - first and foreign band to achieve such success.

The album is the band's highest selling with over 1.2 million in the UK and 6 million in the U.S.
