Genesis are an English rock band formed at Charterhouse School, Godalming, Surrey, in 1967. The band's most commercially successful line-up consisted of keyboardist Tony Banks, bassist/guitarist Mike Rutherford and drummer/singer Phil Collins. In the 1970s, during which the band also included singer Peter Gabriel and guitarist Steve Hackett, Genesis were among the pioneers of progressive rock.
"Mama" is a song by the English rock band Genesis, released as the first single in 1983 from their self-titled album. It is recognisable for its harsh drum machine introduction composed by Mike Rutherford, which leads into minimalist synthesizer lines in a minor tonality and finally Phil Collins' reverb-laden voice.
Composers: Tony Banks, Phil Collins, Mike Rutherford
Producer: Genesis, Hugh Padghem
Performed by Genesis
Genres: Folk, Pop, World

Everybody always forgets the contribution made by Chester Thompson on these live recordings - what a drummer!

[@marvinlewis5591]

Not the real fans. They know Chester drve this juganauht live.

[@Annastasia666]

Dude blows it out every single time!

[@jamos5710]

When him and Phil dual drum in concert it was epic.

[@anthonyclarke5579]

Thank you for a serious name check for Chester.

[@worldofameiso5491]

​@dr.juerdotitsgo5119 listen Doc, you may know your elbow from your kneecap, but you obviously know little about drummers. Now get back to your stethoscope and leave the music to those that know.

[@steeleye2112]

Even with all the fame and attention, I would still argue Collins is very underrated. Superbly subtle drummer, great songwriter and an incredibly charismatic and entertaining singer. No idea who is the best drummer of all time, in fact no idea how to measure it. but Phil and Neil Peart are for me the best composers of drums of all time.

[@TenMinuteTrips]

By now, in 2023, the use of the adjective, “underrated” should be just totally banned from the KZbin comments section. It’s hard to find, maybe possibly even impossible to find one music video on KZbin where absolutely nobody invoked the term “underrated” to describe the band or a member of the band or a song or whatever. By whose standard is someone or something underrated? Why would you even be arguing about that? And best drum composers “of all time?” You’re going to have to go back further than that. Gene Krupa, Buddy Rich, Carl Palmer…

[@petercofrancesco9812]

@@TenMinuteTrips This is what was going through my head when reading his post. Glad I didn't have to write it. Should just say Phil is my favorite drummer and leave it at that.

[@steeleye2112]

@@TenMinuteTrips So you disagree. Fair enough, I don't agree with you, although I would add Palmer to the list of great composers. Also I think underrated is particularly applicable to Collins as he is more often than not dismissed or ridiculed because of his chart success.

[@steeleye2112]

@@petercofrancesco9812 Didn't say that and leave it at that cos that wasn't what I said.

[@grandadneal8114]

@@TenMinuteTrips I've been saying this for years. Underrated is a nonsense term. Not underrated by the thousands that go to the concerts or the millions that buy the records. Only underrated by those who have never heard of him.....and then if you don't know who he is, then you can't rate him anyway. Well said sir

Genesis is without a doubt one of the best bands ever created, I saw them on 2021 live and it was AMAZING!

[@johnhmaloney]

Great reaction and analysis. Mama is one of my favorite Genesis songs of all time. I've always felt that Phil Collins was criminally underrated as both a singer and a drummer. I think maybe his massive commercial success and acclaim as a songwriter got in the way of him being taken seriously as a musician. He wasn't particularly flashy on either vocals or drums, but very unique and emotive.

[@orangeandblackattack]

He was an entertainer and anybody that talks that trash about success is just jealous. NO ONE sounds like Phil Collins!

[@rk41gator]

Great comment. None of Genesis (with the possible exception of Peter Gabriel) were flashy, just superb musicians. Phil Collins made everyone better and elevated the band.

[@kenmolinaro]

I remember in 80s having a Betamax video of a Genesis concert and during this song Phil goes back to a drum kit and does a duo drum solo with Chester Thompson.

[@beshuro]

he was never underrated as drummer. He is included in all top list of drummers and his influence and style are recognized by many famous drummers

[@johnhmaloney]

@@beshuro I started looking at those lists in '85, when he was at the height of his popularity and I never saw him on any of them. There were the classics like Bonzo, Peart and Moon ... occasionally Baker or Mitchell and the (then) current guys like Lee, Benante and Lombardo, but I never saw Collins or any other pop guys for that mater. He sold countless records and did a ton of session work and it could be argued that that's more important, but he was never considered a great drummer in the public consciousness.

[@Stevedrums741]

this vocal performance is still one of his best. At this point in his development, he really mastered the "growl" in his voice designed to project power. The studio version continues to give me goosebumps 40 years later or whatever it's been. Despite his success, he remains painfully underrated both as a complete singer and as one of the most innovative and distinctive drummers in the history of the medium. While people may only remember '80's Phil, the body of his work in it's entirety will go down as one of the most diverse, influential and successful of anyone. What a legacy! What a vapor trail to leave behind!

[@nighthawkde4522]

A Genesis concert was an amazing light and sound show. I went to see them every time they came to my city. It never disappointed.

[@kellywhitty3050]

How can I not love Genesis? I'm a drummer and 2 of my favorite drummers were in the same band! (Chester Thompson and Phil Collins)! I reckon myself somewhat of a singer, and Phil is one of my favorites there too. Collins' creativity is unique and so very entertaining.

[@rk41gator]

The official video is amazing. My only Genesis concert was the best of my entire and very long life. Collins' charisma on stage was marvelous. When he and Chester did their drum duet, it brought down the house. Both in his solo work and with Genesis, live is best. His timing, pitch, and tone are always spot-on. An amazing band of true musicians.

[@dougsowell]

I saw Phil solo and Genesis about 10 times over my life. I wish I would have gone to more. Phil and Chester were magical together.

[@asepbobby]

Got to love Genesis. And Phil's vocal on this is superb. Been following them since late 70's

[@garrygrasinski]

I love how excited Beth gets when she hears something she likes! Fun!

[@ProductivityOrchard]

Loved your reaction to Mama. Genesis are my favourite band of all time, I have been listening to both sides of Genesis for over 40 years. Always finding new elements in their music. Phil is a fantastic vocalist and drummer. Hope you do some more Genesis in the future.

[@billhawkins1236]

Awesome song, awesome performance. Had the pleasure of seeing it live at least 3 times, including the " Mama" tour. There's nothing like watching the lighting rig descend towards the stage during the first crescendo of the chorus. Hair raising!🤠👍👍👍

I was there that day back in 1990 - it was a fantastic day with Tears for Fears, Elton John, Eric Clapton, Dire Straits, Robert Palmer with Jimmy Page, Phil Collins (solo), Genesis, Paul McCartney and Pink Floyd!!!

Wow! One of my all time favorites. The studio version of this is also well worth a listen to get the full impact.

The live vocal inflections, going for all those high notes, plus rare adherence to the original key really make this performance stand out.

[@ThomasKnip]

Shoutout to Tony Banks, the true music mastermind of Genesis. Love Peter, love Phil, but Tony is what made Genesis what it was. And is.

[@charlesedward5047]

YES. Thank you. The older Genesis fans "blame" Phil for the pop sound of the latter albums...but it was Tony who talked about always doing pop songs, short and sweet and musically diverse, from the start. There is a docu here on KZbin (don't remember the name), where Tony himself says this.

[@samuelecallegari6117]

​@@charlesedward5047they were a band even though Banks was the main composer and Gabriel and then Collins the frontmen. Just think that Phil wanted to go full instrumental before seriously consider to sing himself

[@voutsider190]

Back on the original Magnum p.i. back in the 80s , they used this song in one of its episodes about a serial killer. Song matched the mood perfectly you almost would have thought it been written for that episode

[@ArcaneWolf9]

OMG yeah, I completely forgot about that. It worked really well. Gonna have to go back and watch Magnum again. Really unique show that had a lot of effort behind it. Loved that you never knew what you were going to get from episode to episode, from silly comedy to tragedy, adventure, war based drama, buddy based drama, mystery, supernatural spooky, spoof, parody, etc. Read somewhere that Magnum was the first network show to ever feature a cold blooded murder by the HERO of the show, when Magnum killed Ivan, knowing that his diplomatic immunity would allow him to get away with war crimes in the past and murder in present day Hawaii. Not many shows ever took that sort of risk. Not only did they get away with it, it worked within the narrative of the character.

[@bradleysheakley5955]

Probably my most favorite Genesis song

[@Music-Is-Real-Love]

You are by far my favorite vocal coach on KZbin. Great job.

[@rickthreebears184]

As someone who grew up with all of this music, it's wonderful to see you getting as much joy from it as I did and in fact, still do. Thanks for this one. It was wonderful.

[@mikemicrael5749]

It is very interesting to hear you analyze my favorite vocalists. Phil Collins replaced Peter Gabriel in the progressive rock band Genesis in 1975, and many listeners could often not tell the difference between Phil's and Peter's vocals, often thinking Phil was the only singer in Genesis or thinking it was the same singer after 1976. Peter's and Phil's harmonies in Genesis were lush and gorgeous because of their similarities. You seem not to have reacted to any solo Pete Gabriel songs or any Genesis songs with Peter. I would be very interested to hear your side-by-side comparison of the two singers, especially of their Genesis songs. The live version of Peter's solo masterpiece "In Your Eyes" may change your life. Peter's character voices in the 20-minute Genesis epic "Supper's Ready" and throughout the concept double-album The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway showcase Peter at his best. I hope you listen to more progressive music vocalists. Thank you!

[@rk41gator]

Can you imagine having TWO of the best male singers in one rock band? I think Gabriel's best vocal work, showing his vast range, is contained in the epic 'The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway'. (and with such interesting music) There is a video out there on KZbin that isolates Phil's voice when singing with Peter in The Lamb recording. I had no idea Collins could sing SO high. His falsetto in those harmonies is mesmerizing. And Gabriel's range may be even wider!

[@TimGibson-qp8tn]

Agreed. "The Carpet Crawlers" from The Lamb Lies Down would be a good choice.

[@firedoc5]

Didn't get into Genesis until high school in the very early 80's and missed Peter Gabriel with them. What really impressed me was Phil's drumming while singing like others I really admired like Levon Helm of The Band and Don Henley of The Eagles. Imagine if you were a drummer and Phil asks you to play drums for him. Had not seen this performance before, and love it. BTW: Love the blazer, Beth. Really makes your eyes POP.

[@jobwilson812]

Phil really didn't sing and drum at the same time. He did some harmony stuff when Gabriel was in the band, but after Gabriel left, I don't think Phil ever sang from behind the kit. He would always go back to the front when the singing parts came up and let Chester handle the drumming.

[@karenglenn6707]

One of my favourite songs of all times. I still have this on vinyl, which was a 24th birthday present from my then boyfriend in 1984 as he knew how much I loved this song! Just got goosebumps again, hearing this.

[@mikeshaffer4912]

The combination of the almost horror movie keyboard chords and the drums and Collins's voice never ceases to give me gooseflesh. And that it's such a dark, atmospheric song, it's great! I'm still a little bitter that in 1984, within months of each other, Genesis and the Hard Rock group Van Halen came through where I grew up in Idaho, USA and my mom said we could go to one show or the other. We ended up going to see Van Halen. Mind blowing as VH's show was, I wish now I could have seen Genesis on tour for the Mama album too Oh well.

[@Thriving.Succubus]

Phil Collins is one of my favorite vocalists of all time - he makes a lot of beautiful decisions along with a very "clean" voice - love the textures he adds and his runs are so effortless. I wish more people were talking about his voice. He makes it sound so easy. He also has beautiful vocal fry.

[@SugarcatPlays]

I love when music wasn’t about appearance or what you wore. Phil’s literally wearing slacks and a dress shirt and killing it and people are loving every second

Absolutely love Genesis. Thank you for finding and reacting to this performance Beth. Such a great song and Phil hit everything perfectly. I would love to hear you react to their song Abacab from the album by the same name. Time to do a Genesis binge!

[@MnBicycleCommuter]

Great choice for a reaction vid. I saw the Mama Tour in 1983. This song is what I remember most. I had main floor, 13th row center seats at the Rosemount Horizon in Chicago, Illinois, USA. For this song the arena was pitch black with green lazer lighting. When Phil did the evil screams just his face was lit from below. It was creepy and amazing all at once.

[@sydhamelin1265]

When Phil worked with Peter Gabriel, on Peter's 3rd album, he really developed his iconic "Phil" sound. They developed the gated reverb on the drums for that album, and Phil went on to make that his iconic sound. Also, Peter said that there wouldn't be any cymbals on his album, and there aren't. Not a crash, hi-hat, ride, all the drums are done without any cymbals. Peter thought it would play into the darker ambience of the album. So Phil had to mess around with the drums in a way that didn't use cymbals, and he carried a lot of that forward as well. I'm typically not a fan of his, but as a drummer myself, I do love his drumming.

[@keithbrandon3660]

Firstly it is a drum machine sample. And it is also funny how phil gets the words in the wrong order. I was there awesome performance.

[@branthopolis]

Phil is/was such a talent and a great performer. My favorite Phil story is I went to see one of his concerts on his solo No Jackets Required tour. It was at a large 30,000+ seat indoor arena that was packed to the rafters. Fairly early in the show the house/main speaker towers went out... The only sound was from their stage monitors.. Phil stopped the show and after a couple minutes of waiting to see if they could get the main speakers back up, he turned around his vocal monitor to the crowd and proceeded to entertain us with maybe 30 minutes of the craziest dirty jokes & stories... They finally managed to get everything running again and he still went ahead and performed another nearly 3 hours of his solo music and Genesis music.. I'll never forget that night.

[@alexthorpe6583]

That was one of my favorite songs, back around 1988 when I was 17. I'd sing along with it all the time. I'd never heard a liver version before, but it's not that different, especially Phil's vocals, which are nearly note for note like the studio version, save for the very end.

I really liked how you took the style of Isaak's song in a totally different direction. The drum sequence being a straighter pulse with almost no upbeats mixed with your singing approach in a unique and surprising style direction, which I personally think should be done more with covers. Your tone and technique were really impressive, and I appreciate the times I thought you pulling out deliberate flexes, like the whistle falsetto towards the end, (or whatever that stuff is called). Makes me think of some of the 80s hard rock guitar slinging, a sorta one-uping, like "can you do this, hmm?" Great Performance

Great seeing this reaction, Beth. Phil seems to be very polarizing as a singer. Personally, I love his voice.

Im going through a genesis kick rn, there are no comparisons to what they brought to the table during their tenure, most of their songs are absolutely incredible and the rest are just good ☺️
