I have been assured by a big Genesis fan that Phil Collins sang the vocals for "Absent Friends".

I got this from an Amazon review "but I have to admit that I do like "For Absent Friends." I look upon it as a way of cooling down after the mind-blowing experience of the first track, and Phil Collins's vocals have a quality that is more organic than his later vocal work".

I also found this "For Absent Friends" features Collins on vocals, with acoustic guitars, very folky sounding.

Carnie and Wendy, the daughters of Beach Boy Brian Wilson. Carnie was the fat one who is now stunning after surgery and dieting, I couldn't believe it was the same person when I was watching TV the other night, personally Wendy was always the one who did it for me, good singers also just had to hunt down an old cassette and have a listen.
