Impressed! A truly original interpretation and a great track in its own right. Congrats!

You strike a chord!!! This is my favorite Genesis album among all for its crazy creativity... successful test, not the same vibrations, but I greatly appreciated your fabulous work :-) Bravo the artist !

I think I said already that this is outstanding. Anyway I say it a second time: This is really outstandingly great!

Weird and cool instrumentals.. dope baritone vocal work 

Really impressed at your choice of instrumentation definitely keeping the spirit of the original but managing to take Rael to a future dimension... adding a new brightness, vividness and urgency; providing a decent and respectful vocal interpretation

Another cover from the Lamb Lies Down on Broadway, the 1974 double album by Genesis.  Previously I posted my cover of Back in N.Y.C. (https://soundcloud.com/gary-rees-since-87/back-in-nyc-a-semi-experimental-cover-for-my-fellow-fans-of-old-genesis).  I'd love to cover the whole album eventually.

Thanks to my man Junez @pannican-flyswatter for listening to a couple of earlier versions and for his encouragement.  Credit to freemidi.org. 

Those who know Fly on a Windshield and its lyrics will understand why I only covered the latter part of the song at this time.
-------------------------------------------------
And I'm hovering like a fly, waiting for the windshield on the freeway.

Echoes of the Broadway Everglades,
With her mythical madonnas still walking in their shades:
Lenny Bruce, declares a truce and plays his other hand.
Marshall McLuhan, casual viewin', head buried in the sand.
Sirens on the rooftops wailing, but there's no ship sailing.
Groucho, with his movies trailing, stands alone with his punchline failing.
Klu Klux Klan serve hot soul food and the band plays 'In the Mood'
The cheerleader waves her cyanide wand, there's a smell of
Peach blossom and bitter almonde.
Caryl Chessman sniffs the air and leads the parade, he know in a scent,
You can bottle all you made.
There's Howard Hughes in blue suede shoes, smiling at the majorettes
Smoking Winston Cigarettes.
And as the song and dance begins, the children play at home
With needles; needles and pins.
