Live – The Way We Walk, Volume Two: The Longs is the fifth live album by British band Genesis and was released on 11 January 1993, having been recorded during their 1992 tour for We Can't Dance.

While its companion piece, the preceding The Way We Walk, Volume One: The Shorts consisted of the band's pop hits from 1983 to then-present, The Way We Walk, Volume Two: The Longs focused on the longer songs performed during this period. For the 1992 tour, Genesis performed a "new" medley of their old songs—"Dance on a Volcano/The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway/The Musical Box/Firth of Fifth/I Know What I Like (In Your Wardrobe)"—which replaced the "In the Cage" medley. The "Old Medley" appeared on both this album and (in a very slightly different version) on the DVD of the Earls Court concert. The DVD version of "Old Medley" contains a very small snippet of "Misunderstanding" in place of the CD version's brief snippet of "Your Own Special Way".

The Way We Walk, Volume Two: The Longs reached No. 1 in the UK where it remained in the charts for 9 weeks, and No. 20 in the U.S. It remains the band's last No. 1 album.
