Anyone like Phil collins? Yeah go ahead haters, I love some of his songs. Nothing dares as bad as Phil but so what. Contrary to popular belief, he did a few uptempo's.....
Here are my fav's:- Sussudio Don't lose my number One more night Who said I would Another dayt in paradise Colors I wish it would rain down Against all odds (damn this song is good) Invisible touch (genesis) hang in long enough Phil's music almost defines 80's MOR pop. Come on u must like at least 1 song? | |

In the 80s yes he had his hits, the songs were vert dramatic and intense like the Queen stuff.
its annoying how much artist Sample in the Air Tonight.. although i do enjoy Tupacs version as he does try to make it his own style.. | |

i have mixed views on Phil ... was actually thinking about him on the way into work today ... i really DO NOT know why ... lol i get bored with Phil's "hit songs" ... see all the above that "thesexofit" mentioned I love the "non-hits" like "home by the sea" .... "west side story" ... etc ... | |

hmmm...a long time ago.... I loved his stuff with Genesis, at least up until about 1984...and I Loved his first solo album, Face Value:
I especially liked: In the Air Tonight, The Roof Is Leaking, Hand In Hand and the ballad, If Leaving Me Is Easy(Ronald Isley later covered this on the album, Masterpiece).... but after that, Phil started sliding, (to paraphrase CalhounSq), "into nutsuckery"... ...

After "We can't dance" it went downhill for me.

Come on u must like at least 1 song? Oh yeah, i love phil!!! I loved that "sussudio" song when I was a little kid, it sounded funny. But my fav song of his is "in the air tonight". Damn that song is so tight when you hear that drum start up and take the song away. I will forever love and miss you...my sweet Prince. | |

I love Phil!
Has anyone ever seen American Psycho where Patrick Bateman is fucking the two hookers to "Sussudio"?! | |

I like some of his solo work, but he rocked in Genesis.....
He is a very funny person, so that is why many people like him I guess. I wnt to a show in 94 in Utrecht, and it was boring!!! pfff, I almost fell asleep.. .only slow songs in the 1st part..... But than fortunatley in the 2nd part he grabb3ed his drumsticks and started to play some real music!! He saved the show with that... the beautiful ones, you always seem to loose | |

I'm with you on Phil Collins. I don't love him but really enjoy a lot of his stuff although don't make me explain "Sussido". Now "Easy Lover"....even if you hate Phil Collins you gotta love that track. | |

Though both were a million miles away from their pompous Genesis days. | |

Phil Collins put out some funky tracks in the Reagan years. I don't care for his modern Disney movie drivel, though. | |

Although his last hit "I Can't Stop Loving You" (which he did not right) wasn't bad. If he wants. I bet he could make a really good album but will probably settle for making light Disney faire to pay the bills. | |

Yep, loved him too.
My absolute fav was Invisible Touch. I used to scream!! when that came on the radio. That frenetic melody, the passion, the mystery of this elusive, powerful woman. Oh! On the other end of the spectrum, I also was in love with the soft, melancholy "There Must Be Some Misunderstanding" from the early genesis days. | |

Yes, I grew up listening to him.. I like him alot. Loads of respect for what he did with Genesis.. and his early solo career. | |

somebody must, considering all the albums he's sold. though i can't, for the life of me, imagine the kind of person that would. except my mother.... "I don't need your forgiveness, cos I've been saved by Jesus, so fuck you." | |

C'mon he's not that bad. Although I do prefer Peter Gabriel 10 times more than Phil. looking for you in the woods tonight Switch FC SW-2874-2863-4789 (Rum&Coke) | |

I honestly can't stand him. He's one of the few artists I dislike so
much that their music or television appearance makes me physically ill and true love lives on lollipops and crisps | |

Ironically, I have been listening to Phil Collins for the last few weeks. I've always loved his work both solo and with Genesis. | |
