Land of Confusion by Genesis



Oh, dear readers, if you only knew how many times I've been punished by the infinite-loop that this "we've jumped the shark" Genesis song makes through the corners of my mind. And for some reason, it usually hits me while I'm taking a shower in the morning. Perhaps it has worked its way so deeply into my neural pathways that I will now and forever associate shampooing with the insipid imperatives of Phil Collins's pinnacle-of-the-Cold War anthem.

"This is the world we live in/And these are the hands we're given/Use them and let's start trying/To make it a place worth living in."

Over. And over. And over. Help me Peter Gabriel, you're my only hope.

Year: 1986
