Dancing With The Moonlit Knight
"Dancing with the Moonlit Knight" is a song by the progressive rock band Genesis. It was released on their 1973 album ''Selling England by the Pound''. The song was originally going to be titled "Disney." The later Phil Collins-era Genesis song " Paperlate," released in 1982, was conceived during a soundcheck rehearsal of "Dancing with the Moonlit Knight" and derives its title from the line "Paper late, cried a voice in the crowd." Recording The song was developed from several brief piano pieces composed by frontman Peter Gabriel, which were later combined with some of Steve Hackett's guitar figures to make up the song. Gabriel contributed English-themed lyrics to "Dancing with the Moonlit Knight," because the music press thought that Genesis were putting too much effort into appealing to the American audiences. He also included some references to Green Shield Stamps in the lyrics. ''Rolling Stone'' wrote that the song was an "epic commentary on contemporary England." The song's ...

Songs Written By Phil Collins
A song is a musical composition performed by the human voice. The voice often carries the melody (a series of distinct and fixed pitches) using patterns of sound and silence. Songs have a structure, such as the common ABA form, and are usually made of sections that are repeated or performed with variation later. A song without instruments is said to be a cappella. Written words created specifically for music, or for which music is specifically created, are called lyrics. If a pre-existing poem is set to composed music in the classical tradition, it is called an art song. Songs that are sung on repeated pitches without distinct contours and patterns that rise and fall are called chants. Songs composed in a simple style that are learned informally by ear are often referred to as folk songs. Songs composed for the mass market, designed to be sung by professional singers who sell their recordings or live shows, are called popular songs. These songs, which have broad appeal ...
