Do you like Phil Collins?

Atoms for Peace

I've been a big Genesis fan ever since the release of their 1980 album, Duke. Before that, I really didn't understand any of their work. Too artsy, too intellectual.

kneemos

Never heard Phil Collins described as intellectual before.

I was very down after my girlfriend left me due to my obsession with Phil Collins but take a look at me now!

Pelvis

Please excuse me, I need to return some video tapes.

Whatever Bateman

gmisk

He has some catchy tunes
Sussudio and something happened on the way to heaven

Outlaw Pete

I think Invisible Touch was the group's undisputed masterpiece.

DellyBelly

Who is he?

Is your public water turning you into a fairy op

JustLen

Christy, take off your robe.

Mysterypunter

Yes, he was very good in Trailer Park Boys.

Irish water are quite firm when it comes to dealing with fairies.

Nonce sense.

His duet with Phil Bailey from Earth, Wind and Fire on the song ‘Easy lover” is one of my favourite tracks ever

AllForIt

They were almost good but something a bit naff about them and him ultimately.

PTH2009

Love his music but I'd say the person comes off as a bit of prick

At the end of the day if ur a successful music artist ur going to get a big head and think ur the bees knees. I'd love that opportunity tbh

The Backwards Man

Yankovic should do another skit with Collins and song he wrote for the Four Tops in that crap film I can't be arsed googling.

With a real axe.

I'm the opposite, strictly a Peter Gabriel era man.

Pity he didn't stick to music as his comedy career is average at best.

Franz Von Peppercorn

Phil is considered naff in the U.K. however American rappers love him.

Me, I’m a fan of In the Air tonight.

Outlaw Pete

Look at that subtle off-white coloring. The tasteful thickness of it. Oh my God. It even has a watermark.

The Satanist

I love him.

He didn’t. Duke is Phil’s era. Before that it was mostly Gabriel. There was an intermediate album but it was on Duke where Phil Collins' presence became more apparent. I think Invisible Touch is the group's undisputed masterpiece. It's an epic meditation on intangibility. At the same time, it deepens and enriches the meaning of the preceding three albums

Good tunes, liked Buster, fair play for Vice City Stories, bit of a knob...Not quite U2 levels of knobbery though, so could be worse.

'Something Happened on The Way to Heaven' is a serious track.

It's one of those tracks that you think that you, yourself, would be able to pull off in a summer night time kareoke bar. But no, you end up looking like total fool, I know, I am expert.

Still great fecking tune

Ursus Horribilis

Great drummer too, back in the day. I wouldn't call myself a fan but I like some of his Genesis/solo songs. In The Air Tonight still sounds as fresh as it did 37(!) years ago.

Noveight

Yeah I'd rate him. Another Day in Paradise is a memorable tune.

Mrcaramelchoc

I thought he was brilliant in the 80 s and i got slagged because i liked him.i saw him in concert 3 times and it was incredible every time.

Don't mind them useless sonically bereft sop's, you were ahead the curve and the ones doing the slagging are no doubt still sonically lacking today. Would have loved to see Collins live back in the day.

I dont know about that.i remember standing at the bus stop listening to another day in paradise on cassette through my walkman having just bought it in hmv thinking im not cool the lads won't like this.

Zaph

There's a French joke where Phil Collins is the punchline and I've seen people nearly falling off their chairs laughing at it, so it must be bloody hilarious. Unfortunately my French isn't good enough to understand the joke, but apparently the way the French pronounce Phil Collins sounds a lot like their description for shoving something up your arse, or something like that. Kind of appropriate really.

Billy don't you lose my number

Absolute tune!

I know that game myself man, but feck those people, whatever gives you musical enjoyment that is genuinely enjoyable for yourself made you a thousand times more cooler than a bunch of people that just wanted to 'look' cool

"Well I remember, I remember, don't worry, how could I ever forget
It's the first time, the last time we ever met
But I know the reason why you keep your silence up, oh no you don't fool me
Well the hurt doesn't show, but the pain still grows
It's no stranger to you and me"

Franz Von Peppercorn

The op wasn’t being serious but nice to see some love for Phil.

Pat Mustard

Like David Hasselhoff, he was popular in the Fatherland and could belt out a tune in German as the situation demanded.
