Genesis - Land of Confusion (Official Music Video)

The history is repeated.

HERE BEFORE GTA 6 TRAILER DROPS
THE VIDEO CURRENTLY AT 10 MILLION VIEWS

Was listening to this song on the radio with my grandfather on the way home from a trip. I'm a millennial, and he's a baby boomer, but I feel like this was such an excellent song to express how screwed I've felt by his generation. Inheriting crumbling infrastructure, privatized and gutted public institutions, climate change crisis.
"To make it a place worth living in", has become a call to arms of solidarity.

Raegen was a horrible president. One of the FIVE worst... 1. BUSH JR 2. BUSH SR. 3. BARACK OBAMA 4.TRUMP 5.REAGEN

Great song, freaking weird video.

Spitting image genesis the coolest

No confusion it's just the plan and you don't have. Say in the plan.

You just shut up and do as your told.

More disturbing now than when I was a kid . . .

Foreshadowing...

I’m pretty sure these puppets scared me as a kid.

When do We wake up?

LYRICS!
Land of Confusion

I must have dreamed a thousand dreams
Been haunted by a million screams
But I can hear the marching feet
They're moving into the street

Now, did you read the news today?
They say the danger has gone away
But I can see the fire's still alight
They're burning into the night

There's too many men, too many people
Making too many problems
And there's not much love to go around
Can't you see this is the land of confusion?

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

Oh, Superman, where are you now?
When every thing's gone wrong somehow?
Men of steel, these men of power
I'm losing control by the hour

This is the time, this is the place
So we look for the future
But there's not much love to go around
Tell me why this is the land of confusion

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

I remember long ago
When the sun was shining
And all the stars were bright all through the night
In the wake up this madness, as I held you tight
So long ago

I won't be coming home tonight
My generation will put it right
We're not just making promises
That we know we'll never keep

There's too many men, too many people
Making too many problems
And there's not much love to go around
Can't you see this is the land of confusion?

Now, 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 fighting for

This is the world we live in
And these are the names we're given
Stand up and let's start showing
Just where our lives are going to

2023?

Me, super confused why the algorithm took 15 years to let me know that this isn't actually a Disturbed original song: "Wait! What? Genesis did this first? No way! I grew up on the Disturbed version, now I'm 30 and the universe is telling me that it was a cover all along!?! Wtf"

One morning I woke up and realized that the Putin Tower had been blown away by the wind.

He is my reason for getting through another work day. We all need a tubby nugget in our lives!! Thank you for creating him❤❤❤❤

Who is listening 2023

Absolutely true!

needs remade with Joe Biden instead of Ronald Reagan maybe Jeff dun ham can do it

I hope all those terrifying puppets are kept in a vault somewhere.

❤

Bro, this AI generative shit is getting scary and too prophetic or whatever. Turn it off wait THIS WAS THE 80s PHIL WHAT WERE U TRYIN TO TELL US?! Holy fuckin shit that's one heck of a nurse, alright.

When I hear this now I think of all the "useful idiots" that are supporting "Palestine" in the west. They have NO idea what they are doing or whom they are supporting... "confused" is the most polite word I can use.

Stunning video and incredible song.

Stunning on so many levels...

This is nightmare fuel. Always has been. Its traumatized me since I was a baby. The song is a banger, tho. 🔥🔥🔥

"I must've dreamed a thousand dreams

Now did you read the news today?
They say the danger's gone away
But I can see the fires still alight
They're burning into the night
There's too many men, too many people
Making too many problems
And not much love to go 'round
Can't you see this is a land of confusion?
This is the world we live in (oh, oh, oh)
And these are the hands we're given (oh, oh, oh)
Use them and let's start trying (oh, oh, oh)

Oh, when the sun was shining
Yes, and the stars were bright all through the night
And the sound of your laughter as I held you tight
So long ago
I won't be coming home tonight
My generation will put it right
We're not just making promises
That we know we'll never keep
Too many men, there's too many people
Making too many problems

I used to listen to this song with my brother when we were young ! just love that song

Animals don't know any better 🧐 my friend my God does not tell me to kill.get it right 🌌🧐🌹🌍

Such a relevant song for what's going on now

Stars are a small percentage of Americas Population. It’s scary how suddenly so many of them have died of heart issues or came down with speech/dementia issues.

is that supposed to be Ronald Reagan in the beginning ?

The line "My generation will set it right" becomes incredibly hilarious when you remember what generation Phil Collins is.

I remember this was one of the first music videos I saw on VH-1 when we got cable. I fell in love with Phil Collins music right then.

That’s one heck of a nurse

Coming from a young adult, this song is incredibly relevant, as others have stated. Not only that, but the music video practically defines the word "trippy". Land of Confusion indeed.

This song is going to forever be relevant

As I returned to this song let's try to make this world worth living in

What a prophetic, timeless song!

Whoever came up with the idea of this music video was on a lot of powerful drugs! Jesus! That video was insane!

Spoiler alert- Gen X did not make right

ДЖО БАЙДЕНУ ПОРА В ОТСТАВКУ, НА ПЕНСИЮ, НА ВИД ОН УЖЕ ВООБЩЕ НЕ ПОНИМАЕТ НА КАКИЕ КНОПКИ НАЖИМАТЬ, РЕФОРМЫ В США ЯВНО НАЗРЕЛИ, В США И ВСЕ В МИРЕ ЖИВУТ ПЛОХО, ТАКИМ ДУРАКАМ В БЕЛОМ ДОМЕ НЕ МЕСТО!

Yesus Creed. To the code 88
