After 50 years of drumming Phil Collins is putting down his sticks. The Genesis drummer has a spinal injury that has made sitting at a kit too painful to endure. Collins will still be able to sing and perform in the future.Here’s one final look at what else is happening this week…It looks like Van Halen will tour with Dave Roth in 2010Drummer Bill Kreutzmann has unveiled a cool new website
Say what you will about Phil Collins, Genesis, or “Sussudio”, that drum fill on “In the Air Tonight” is pretty killer. Even Ozzy’s allegedly obsessed with it. Either way, Collins was a very influential drummer in his various projects and especially...
Phil Collins has told the Mirror in the U.K. that, due to recent spinal surgery, he can no longer play the drums or piano and is not sure if he ever will be able to again.Collins told the paper that, after years of sitting in a certain position to play drums, his vertebrae were crushing his spinal chord. He had surgery for the situation, but the end result is that he cannot hold his drumsticks...
Really cool video for The Gorilla Run, where over 700 people will run the streets of London in aid of Gorillas (of which there are 700 left in the wild).Not really Music related i know, but Phil's rockin' in the background in this video too.
This shit is from 1999, but it's just as amazing today as it was back then. Below you can check out some old classics we ran back across earlier today. The "Tarzan" soundtrack should be considered a modern classic, if it isn't already: Phil Collins did some absolutely wonderful work for the folks over at [...]
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.
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!
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.
I've had In the Air Tonight floating in my head all week long. It's been ages since I've heard a Phil Collins song. It brings me back to my sophmore days in high school. Growing up we were huge Genesis and Phil Collins fans. I used to have all of his solo albums and mi hermano had all of Genesis' LP's.We were also huge fans of the original Miami Vice TV series and remember when In the Air Tonig...

The beggar. Sitting. Back against the light post. Hand outstretched. Shivering. Filthy. You can practically smell him but for the rain and wind. Is there an election going on?The kid on the bus. Shaved head. Dirty clothes. Legs crossed over two seats. No one can sit. No one wants to. Vacant eyes. Deep scar on the scalp. Constant putting on and taking off his hat tells some of his story. Reading...
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 ...
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 ...
