Do you like Phil Collins?

KungPao

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.

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.

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.

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"

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.

Back in the 80's when I had my first car I installed a cassette tape player. But one night someone broke in and stole the tape player and all my tapes, the Waterboys/U2/Bon Jovi/Dire Straits etc except 1. Yep I guess that fcker was no fan of Phil Collins' No Jacket Required.

Sheridan81

No.

He's a bit creepy too. Watch Frank Bruno's This Is Your Life clip with Phil Collins (and Jimmy Savile in attendance.)

Me, I’m a fan of In the Air tonight.

I like his daughter, it might be against all odds, but I wouldn't mind if she were to take me home

The mud soup and charcoal arugula are outrageous here.

I owned all his albums on cassette as one stage.

I loved this video when i was a kid.

Ah yeah, I forgot about that. He was heavily involved in the theatre production of Tarzan here in Germany, which was quite a success. And I think they even had a reality TV casting show with the winners getting to play the main characters.

It’s apparently been sampled dozens of times. Great intro and drums.
