Phil Collins - "If Leaving Me Is Easy"

This has to be one the most beautiful/serene recordings ever recorded. I love this tune.

Great job Phil!!

I read all the letters, I read each word that you've sent to me
And though it's past now, and the words start to fade
All the memories I have still remain

I've kept all the pictures, but I hide my feelings so no-one knows
Oh sure my friends all come round, but I'm in a crowd on my own
It's 'cos you're gone now, but your heart, still remains
And it'll be here if you come again

You see, I'd heard the rumours, I knew before you let me know
But I didn't believe it, not you,
No you would not let me go
Seems I was wrong, but I love, I love you the same
And that's the one thing that you can't take away but just remember...

If leaving me is easy,
Coming back is harder...

Have you listened to the entire album this song came from? It's brilliant.

Is it me, or is Phil Collins a BAD ASS drum programer?

I'm not that hip to his music, but I picked up on that detail recently.

No it ain't just you. The guy is a genius behind the drums. People make fun of him because he sings real well on soft stuff (and I'm a fan of soft shit so there lol) but the guy is a beast behind the drums. Without him (and Peter Gabriel), Genesis wouldn't have gotten out of London's art club scenes lol
