"Throwing It All Away" is the seventh track on the 1986 album ''Invisible Touch'' by Genesis. It was the second single from the album in 1986, reaching No. 4 on the ''Billboard'' Hot 100〔Billboard.com archive ((link ))〕 and No. 22 in Britain,〔(Genesis UK chart history ), The Official Charts Company. Retrieved 18 May 2012.〕 where it was released as the last single of the album in 1987. In the U.S., it also went to No. 1 on ''Billboard'''s Adult Contemporary chart in October 1986 and the Album Rock Tracks chart in August 1986. The working title was "Zephyr and Zeppo". The song is a soft rock ballad structured around a guitar riff by Mike Rutherford, who also wrote the lyrics. The U.S. single included the instrumental "Do the Neurotic" as the B-side: the UK edition featured the track "I'd Rather Be You". The CD version of the ''Invisible Touch'' album incorrectly lists the running time as 4:41; the correct time was 3:51. ==Live performances== "Throwing It All Away" was performed live during the ''Invisible Touch'',〔( Invisible Tour Songs & Dates )〕 ''The Way We Walk'',〔( The Way We Walk Tour Songs & Dates )〕'' Calling All Stations'' and ''Turn It On Again''〔( Turn it on again Tour Songs & Dates )〕 tours; aside from the 1986 leg of the ''Invisible Touch'' tour, the song was transposed to a lower key to accommodate Collins' deepening voice. A live version appears on the ''The Way We Walk, Volume One: The Shorts'' and ''Live Over Europe 2007'' CDs and the ''When in Rome 2007'' DVD. During the intro and just before the end of the live performances, Collins would engage in Call and response with the audience using nonsensical language. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Throwing It All Away」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
