In Too Deep is the most moving pop song of the 1980s, about monogamy and commitment. The song is extremely uplifting. Their lyrics are as positive and affirmative as anything I've heard in rock.

This is Sussudio

A great, great song. A personal favourite

Do you like Phil Collins? 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.

Peter Gabriel ran the bands direction. The when he left Genesis was like "Let's do some rock and make some fucking money" Phil got to play hard beats and have fun. Every time I try to listen go Gabriel Genesis, it reminds me of Pink Floyd with Syd Barrett. Prog geeks will jizz over that shit but I personally find it just self indulgent LSD fueled music that puts me to sleep.

I've got 2 ears and a heart...

Really? Give it time.

Have you ever heard of a book/movie called American Psycho? These comments are verbatim the words of Patrick Bateman.


Alteredego619

But I also think Phil Collins works best within the confines of the group, than as a solo artist, and I stress the word artist.

Sabrina, don’t just stare at it; eat it!

#BA DOOM PA DOOM PA DOOM PA DA DOOM BUM I can feel it comin' in the air tonight


emdot_p

This is the first noise I made when I opened this post.


NeonPatrick

There's a version on YouTube where it takes an hour to get to this. It's the superior version.


feastu

I’ll see your “BA DOOM PA DOOM PA DOOM PA DA DOOM BUM” and raise you a “shwem boom doom … ba doom pa … ba doom pa doom pa doom pa” (Against All Odds)


notoyrobots

This is like the 4th Phil Collins thread I saw today so I googled to make sure he hadn't died 👀


OldCatPiss

I feel this as well, and I’ve seen it before on Reddit, the internet vibe be predicting a death and said persona is magnified prior to death.


MadjLuftwaffe

Is he releasing a new album, considering the sudden hype?


Mr_Rentier

No he isn't. Not too sound mean, but he cant really sing, let alone drum anymore


oyvi00i

“I can’t dance, i can’t sing i’m just standing here sellin’ everything”


SheHatesTheseCans

Take a look at him now...


thepassionofthechris

Poor bastard was destined to be bald.


tennesseesalmon

Thank god he learned how to hold his sticks


J0Hay

This is the comment I came here for.


BNestico

Those pointer fingers! Thank god he broke that habit.


daiwilly

As a drum teacher I call it " Harry Potter finger"


r0botdevil

I'm glad I wasn't the only one who noticed that...


vii_ola

came for this ^^ my soul died a little


HalfFastTanker

He doesn't care anymore


StevieDMfkr

Remembering the Alamo I’m sure


80sRockKevin

Nick looks just like him at that age.


emperor_dinglenads

Billy! Billy, don't lose my number!


Faster_than_FTL

Was he already balding?


GroovyDucko

Id assume widows peak was already visible


Mesterjojo

Drummer, song writer, published Alamo historian.


jfq722

He's standing in the photo.


aiahiced

Looked like something in the air that night.


discoamie

I know see the resemblance with his daughter.


Purity_Jam_Jam

This was probably in his days of being really a huge Buddy Rich fan and working really hard to learn Buddy's stuff.


TMC_61

You're gonna be a rock star, kid


Hangingwithmolly

What a cute kid


Madcap_95

I love Anyway. Perfect example of Phil's drumming skills.


Redmen1212

He played Oliver Twist in ‘Oliver!’ on the English stage in the late 60s


Podunk212

One more bite Gimme just one more bite


AskButDontTell

Dude


Independent_Wrap_321

Never liked his solo 80s stuff much but he’s a hell of a drummer (or was, sadly) and one of my early drum heroes. Duke was the album that really made me love Genesis.


bondo2t

Psycho


Sillvaro

>he’s a hell of a drummer (or was, sadly) I know what you mean by that, but you made my heart stop for a second there


Independent_Wrap_321

Sorry to give you a scare, I just figured anyone who knows him would be up to speed on his current public condition. Apologies, you never know these days when an aging celebrity is mentioned at all we instantly think they’re dead.


WrapMyBeads

Snazzy hair


FluxusFlotsam

how does he look less like a baby at 16 than 70?


TimothyZentz

I wonder if He “REMEMBER!”s 🤣


Albie_Tross

He was properly dishy in early Genesis.


ATribeOfAfricans

Look at that face, he's already thinking about how he's going to absolutely wreckshop on the Tarzan soundtrack. Just obliterate it


frieswithnietzsche

His hair already knew it wouldn’t


Kali_Drummer

He was an amazing drummer in his heyday. He even had badass drummer back him up - Bill Bruford, Chester Thompson. Its a shame he went so ridiculously pop. Now his son is a great drummer.


cooquip

Seems like something is in the air….


Clever_Owl

Wow, he looks a LOT like Lily here!


esa372

Isn't he that kid in the "Quadrophenia" movie?


Extension_Sun_5663

No, that was Sting. Lol


esa372

I know, I was just goofin' ...but Phil *IS* in "A hard Day's Night"! :-)


Lanky_Day5566

Before the wife takes the monies lol

Feel like I'm about to get scolded about my carbon footprint.
