GENESIS - MAMA [Synthwave Version]

[@jeremysaje6939]

I am a MASSIVE Genesis fan who usually abhors any different versions of their songs... THIS IS AMAZING!!!! I love it!!!

[@synthwavedave]

Thank you so much!

[@gregorybolton]

I'm also a huge fan and 👍 agree!!!!

[@MannyRosa]

I concur. Incredible! Love it. Want it!

[@jenniferbeyer6412]

Same here. But this was awesome.

[@jjeshop]

That's because you're a gatekeeper. Maybe stop doing that.

[@jeh5882]

This should be released as a single. It’s absolutely phenomenal..

[@synthwavedave]

Thank you :)

[@NovumClassicum]

KZbin randomly recommended this to me. As a lifelong Genesis fan, this is possibly the best reinterpretation and remix of any song of any era of Genesis.

[@synthwavedave]

Thank you very much :)

[@Dadtheimpaler]

I'll echo this sentiment 100%

[@notesfromafar]

Same here, well not the Genesis fan bit... this is brillaint!

[@CaptainMcKayRandom]

How is it that Phil’s voice worked SO DAMN WELL with this style? I always loved his singing but this just adds to my appreciation. Really cool version!

[@synthwavedave]

Thank you so much! Phil has a great voice for sure.

[@stevendejong6394]

Especially once he starts going berserk, it's amazing.

[@doktormcnasty]

Phil's the effing shizzle, mate. Or , at least he was. I think he's all gimped up now and ready to pass, one foot in the grave & all as of this comment. But back in the day bro! This reminds me of my doody (hehe, I wrote doody!) to remind you all that: Time it's a harsh mistress.

[@snoproblem]

The video really tells a story, doesn't it? Two subjects in constant reality-flux, at times tormented, then menacing to the point of demonic, then terrified.... and sometimes, attempting a near-impossible connection as they morph from one reality to the next. Fascinating.

[@synthwavedave]

Yes! You got it

[@stephenedwards4372]

Wow! The original video back in the day, gave me the creeps. Now I can't stop listening to this version. Absolutely love it. The graphics are phenomenal.

[@synthwavedave]

Wow, thank you!

[@brian32151867]

The chord change at 4:03 is out of nowhere and almost jarring yet it somehow pushes things into even more dangerous and unsettling territory. I've been a Genesis fan for 30+ years and this recording and video gave me goosebumps. Brilliant work, hope you take a crack at another song from their catalog someday!

[@synthwavedave]

Thank you! I'm glad you noticed that. My idea was as his vocals get more deranged at the end I wanted the chords to become more chaotic.

[@barking_mad6649]

​@@synthwavedaveTonight, Tonight, Tonight would be interesting.

[@Fernandouyeah]

As a Genesis fan I have no words to thank you for this work. Amazing. The new generations deserve to enjoy this great band. DAVE You are invited to a virtual beer!!!!

Next Monday this song will be played in my radio program "Skierniewice under the Moon". Radio RSC on air & online.

[@synthwavedave]

Wow! That is awesome!

this is maybe the best genesis song and this interpretation is fantastic, the art is _magnificent_

[@walterpoluzzi9846]

The best Genesis song ?? Ahahahahahah....how old are you ?? C'mon. let's stop with bullshits !!

[@GraphixJunkie]

Now I want to see Phil Collins is a private investigator in a noir/cyberpunk crime show.

[@ApolloCDR]

It's statements like this that makes me wish I could draw and be an animator. I would definitely make your wish a reality, it's a great idea!

[@antonyeastham4564]

He appeared in Miami Vice.

[@zeth997]

@@antonyeastham4564Old times ;)

[@petebennett3733]

He was the cop in the film Hook, inspector Good. And the film Frauds.

[@midnightmosesuk]

I think that might be a bit beyond poor old Phil these days. A lifetime of drumming like an absolute legend has left him a physical wreck. But someone else could do it using Phil's music as the soundtrack.

[@DanielMcGregor]

I've been listening to Phil Collins work since I was 5 years old. So since 1987. And his music still packs a punch that most modern Artists could only dream to pull off. Nice work. :)

[@AIRNSWORDZ]

Keep them coming. I’d love to hear more 80’s singers mixed in this manner!

[@987jasy]

That was superb Dave! The song choice, the graphics, man the graphics are unreal!!!

[@synthwavedave]

Thank you!

[@adam872]

I like that Phil's original vocal is in there, which is one of his best ever. I dig this rendition and the fact that it takes the tune in a different direction. Nothing beats the sinister original though. What a track. You've just won yourself a subscriber.

[@FISHMusik]

This is one of my favorite songs ever... I remember the original video of this song clearly. Now, what you have done here is beyond amazing...!! You gave such life to the song. Such darkness than I didn't think possible since the original version is so dark on it own. Then the way you matched the chord changes and the dynamics are masterful. Great choice of synth sounds. I truly believe the members of Genesis would love this version.

[@synthwavedave]

Wow, thank you!

[@rekom7070]

I have no idea of how many times I've listened this version, but every time it gives me the kicks! Absolutely stunning revision of the original song!

[@synthwavedave]

Thank you! That's awesome :)

[@inglepropnoosegarm7801]

It's obvious that a lot of creative energy went into making this. Well done!

[@synthwavedave]

Thank you :)

[@derikhancock1224]

Why this video doesn't have way more views is surprising to me.

[@eltonronjovi2238]

This. Is. Amazing. No seriously, outstanding work!

[@synthwavedave]

Thank you so much :)

[@MEqwed]

indeed

[@_PrimetimePranks]

The subtle video background changes are brilliant with messages and words morphing into madness.

[@Obsidian1985]

This version works so well, it almost feels like this is how the song should have been. Great work, I wonder if Phil will ever hear it, and what he would think.

[@adamneal1365]

love genesis and this is a great version of mama.

[@synthwavedave]

Thank you!

[@azuremyst2850]

By far my favorite Genesis song, and this is absolutely the best remix out there and it’s not even close. A superb masterpiece 🎉

Estoy totalmente impresionado de escuchar y de disfrutar los gráficos de esta excelente adaptación de la versión original, así podría haber sonado Genesis si hubiese escrito Mama en la actualidad. Felicidades por esta atrevida versión que sencillamente es brillante y brutalmente hipnótica.

[@martynlewis9020]

🎉Awesome job! I’m a big Genesis fan ever since I happened to tune into a TV broadcast of the Mama tour back in the 80’s. I remember being mesmerised by Phil’s performance, starting off singing the vocals on one of the long tracks like Home By The Sea, then seeing him make his way over to the drum kit midway through the song, incredible. Also, as a teen in the late 80’s, I’m loving the synth revival that’s happening now. So a fusion of classic prog and synth is a winner for me!

[@synthwavedave]

Thank you! Glad you liked it :)
