Phil Collins Retires
(101)
After a semi-climactic, 30-year career, Phil Collins decides to call it quits. I have to admit. When I was a kid, I was embarrassed that my mom listened to Genesis and Phil. Now, they are a must-play at my upcoming wedding. There you go, they've transcended time. There's no better time than now to leave when you have left a well-carved impression in the mind of my generation and future ones. I saw this video on Youtube featuring Phil and Chester Thompson battling it out ... MORE

The track "We Fly So Close" is taken from the album "Both Sides". Enjoy these two masterpieces from the former Genesis member. We Fly So Close"
'We never realise just how close we come to disaster whether in love or everyday life...'
My harbour lights are fading fast
soon they'll disappear
alone I sit in darkness
hoping someone might come near
though I wait, though I try
no one ever comes
and the feeling that I have flood over me
the river starts to run
We fl... MORE

Lately, when you hear the name Phil Collins, you may immediately think about his more recent, and, uh.. commercial works (Sussidio?) - but I recommend to all another listen of his seminal first solo album, "Face Value". While the most obvious song associated with this album is the iconic "In the Air Tonight", I'm recommending a re-listen to "The Roof is Leaking". It sort of stands out - a story song of pioneers struggling to make it through the winter.. in the midst of... MORE

At night that you must listen to this looking at the dark road and feeling it on a night with a full moon.

I've been waiting for this to make it to YouTube, because it has my secret favorite song of an artist I despise - Phil Collins. Wait for it, it's pretty good for a commercial.

Quite a few weeks ago now I had the Chart Show playing in my car when JK & Joel announced that Phil Collin's In The Air Tonight as at No 17. That's a bit - and I know this word is overused nowadays - random, I thought. Then a week or two ago my friends explained why and I saw the evidence for myself on TV...: It's quite good that downloads are now included in the sales - well they have been for a while now - but normally you'd have to wait for enough interest ...

I just saw this new film today, which made me think about the old Phil Collins song that used to be the TV show's theme (or at least, featured prominently in it - can't remember). The film features, at roll credits, a new cover of this song by what sounds like a bunch of whiny young suburbanites. This cover spectacularily fails, though I have to at least give the band (whomever they are) credit for having the balls to try and cover this song.The reason why it's risky to co... MORE

I absolutly grant Mr Phil Collins a great hand for this song. This is one of the most beautiful piece of Art ever produced by this legend. I love this song so much, it speaks straight to my soul. This is a wonderful song

The mention of Phil Collins triggers some extreme reactions these days. Actually, I love the guy and I'm unashamedly a fan. Some of his recent material isn't up to the high standards he set at the start of his career, but there was a time when he could do no wrong. Powering Genesis to worldwide popularity in the 80s at the height of his own solo career, when he had string of number 1 hit singles from a collection of albums that everyone seemed to own. He played drums ... MORE

I was playing GTA Vice City Stories and got a little surprise when I saw that Phil Collins was a voice on the game. I thought it was coincedental, but then I saw that Phil Collins was also a character in the game. He even did a "live" rendition for a concert in Vice City. Here's that track.

An old favorite
(14)
I've always thought this guy was very talented. I remember seeing this video even when it first came out and thinking about my ex-girlfriend. This whole album is amazing. "I Wish It Would Rain Down", "Father to Sun", All of My Life", "Another Day in Paradise" and this gem. I hope you can relate to this video on some level.

Is anyone else as violently disturbed as me at the fact there's a Grand Theft Auto commercial now using a Phil Collins song? I mean, seriously. It's Grand Theft Auto and Phil. Collins. Who I enjoy very much in his 80's heyday, I will admit, but the two together don't effing mix.

I recently completed a rather large dissertation, and towards the end while I was doing the irritating and incredibly time-consuming things like footnoting, proofreading and writing a bibliography, I decided to listen to my entire record collection A-Z. I've made some mistakes, and these haunted me (Marc Bolan, Bad Company). Lodged between swathes of Leonard Cohen and Crosby Stills and Nash, sat Phil Collins' Face Value. Apart from his cover of Tomorrow Never Knows, I must... MORE
