“I Know What I Like (In Your Wardrobe)“ was the first charting single by the rock band Genesis. The single was first released in the UK in August 1973, but did not become a hit until April 1974, when it reached number 21 in the UK Singles Chart.
Its original b-side was the non-album track “Twilight Alehouse,“ a song about a lonely man who finds solace in the local tavern. This song had been in Genesis’s live set since 1970 but was not recorded in the studio until 1973.
