"Turn It On Again" is a single from Genesis, from their 1980 album Duke.
The lyrics deal with a man who does nothing more than watch his television, so much that he becomes obsessed with the people he watches on it, believing them to be his friends.
"Turn It On Again" has been a firm favorite in Genesis's live shows and is synonymous with both Genesis and vocalist/drummer Phil Collins. Consequently, the group's 1999 compilation album Turn It On Again: The Hits was named after it, as was the band's 2007 Turn It On Again: The Tour reunion project.
