Billy Joel claimed the reason he didn't do Live Aid is he had no band at that time and he didn't think one guy at a piano could hold a stadium's attention. I wonder what he thought when he saw Mr. Collins annihilating in Phil-adelphia.
Wish i could go back to that time too, my kids can you imagine, they want to go there to, the music, no phones, social media, artist who wrote their OWN songs, the world is a fucked up place right now, sow is the music, commerciële, movies made for netflix, no dept öre acting skills no more….only a fast making money machine🤮
I arrived in London from Australia that day. Got on a jam packed tube back to Earl's Court from Wembley Stadium where Live Aid was held, only to find I was locked out of my Youth Hostel. Pretty scary for an 18 year old fresh off the plane from half way round the world.😊
When he missed that one key and grinned, I was soo grateful to know he is human just like the rest of us. Bravo Sir Collins! We'll remember this forever!
Phil makes a mistake at 1:06, shakes his head and smiles and carries on. A true legend. That's how greatness is achieved. When you screw up, shrug it off, smile, and keep pushing.
fun fact; Phil Collins was the only performer to play both live aid shows. He literally had just gotten off the Concorde, jumped in a car and took the stage. He's a living legend.
With the greatest respect buddy.. it was the other way around. At the beginning of this clip he says “Good afternoon, good afternoon Wembley” which is in London. He ‘then’ gets on a Concorde and flies over for the Philadelphia to then perform there. At the beginning of the Philadelphia appearance he tells the audience how he was in London earlier. It has to work that way around because the UK is ahead of the US in terms of time. And here is that Philadelphia clip, enjoy.. 👍🏻 ua-cam.com/video/DEWu59OPAbQ/v-deo.htmlsi=u0jFAXyaPCOry6G9
It’s sad to know that this brilliant musician is now forced to perform from a chair and has lost his ability to play the drums and the piano. We were blessed and fortunate to grow up listening to the timeless music this man created. You can put on any of his albums and never skip tracks. Every song just as good as the previous. A pure musical genius.
due to having COVID, i missed his final performance in Washington, D.C. was totally Crushed as I know that we All will, only have an Empty Space, to remind Us, but Yet the Reminder of this Is Exceptional Human Being, whom bestowed Us with his Magic, will Live on Forever!!!
I was privileged to see genesis at Hamden Park for the Invisible Touch tour, and very privileged and saddened to see them again for the last tour, it was hard to see Phil on his chair, but he still gave as good as he was able to and we still loved every minute of it
Yes all the people that plays piano see that, but that's all, you carrie on, and that's something beautiful the thing that if you had a difficult you can pass through that and keep going
Some random guy in Burleson, Texas, some random night in December of 2023, Thanks you, Phil. Just thanks Sir. I was in a bad way in 1985-1986. You gave me hope, saved a guy who was lost that night, and I’m still here to see 2024. May you have happiness Phil, and enjoy the New year 2024, I hope you see this, praying for you brother, health n happiness in 2024
Phil Collins is one of only three musicians who have sold over 100 million records both as a solo artist and as a part of a band. The other two are Michael Jackson and Paul McCartney.
Yes I gave ya a like for the comment. I'm pretty sure he learned piano at a young age. Long before drums. He performs sitting down now a day singing is all he's got left!!
That is by far the hardest part to believe about Phil Collins. That he might've never been a singer and soundtracked many of our childhoods if he stayed just a drummer.
All I was saying is that I'm pretty sure he learned piano before drums and singing. All though being young he probably didn't realize how good of a singer he would become
You could see it when he sang Hotel California while playing the drums with the Eagles. He doesn’t shy away from the spotlight. Sings and plays with love.
Apparently he's forgotten how to play this on the piano now, I suppose when you have Tony banks on keys beside him for most of his career he wouldn't get too much time to play the piano
No autotune, no light show and an audience without smartphones filming the whole thing. No - pure talent on stage and an audience fully experiencing that✅👍
Everyone in that audience took what they were seeing for granted. If they knew that we would all be sitting here in 2024 wishing we could see this again...

@@SuzyQ334 He played an arpeggio in a part when the original recording has a chord played softly a few times. That´s the mistake. I could be wrong but I don´t hear anything off key in his whole performance.
Dear Mr.Phil Collins,there I lay,1987 in a Deep,Deep Coma with massive brain damage.Doctors wanted to turn my life support off after three months in my coma.I have no signs of life,my heart weak,my brain dead,I was history until your beautiful music was played beside my hospital bed. Within hours my vital sings picked up and I am alive today,to express my joy and happiness to you.My words cannot thank you enough for your wonderful music,It did help save my life.
Omg🙏really? His Angel voice give you life again with God's help.. And now, who said that Angel not exists? I wish you many, many years, with Phill music🌹😇🎶🙏
Wow, this comment NEEDS to make it to Mr. Phil Collins so that he fully understands how incredibly valuable his music is. ♡ I'm so thankful to have read your story, may many blessings continue to come into your life ♡ Sending hugs and many prayers.
Let me remind you this was the era of the lighter. So, many were distracted getting their lighter to ignite. And to top it off, none of those moments were ever recorded in a photo or movie.

When I was 6 my mum died from probable suicide and 5 years later I heard this song. When the radio played it for the first time it cut me to my very core and 40 years later it still does. It is a remarkable song, Phil's voice timeless and perfect, he wrote and created a magnificent masterwork. It resonates with profound meaning.

It would be ridiculous to call him underrated,you know, considering he was immensely popular, with a plethora of top hits... but I still don't think people realize how good he really was. He made catchy, listenable songs, so it was easy to overlook his very real talent.
@@sadviolinproductions391 here's a little secret...the majority of the 80's music sucked but a few gems survived. Same goes for today, listen for the gems, they will survive and 20 years from now someone will say to you exactly what you just said to PJ.
Yes, in France, we say "canard" (to make a duke 😄) And music teachers always said to me, if you do wrong note, make tour possible not to show it on your face 😊😊
My god, this is so amazing. Not only one of the greatest drummers of all time, he can also do this. No effects , no bullshit. Just pure talent. Incredible.
He misses a key early on, cringes & smiles, then powers through with a voice that elevates nostalgia like every strand of hair at the back of my neck. Beautiful songwriter, tremendous performer. Live-Aid may be the best live music event since Woodstock . . .
an awesome performance. Check out Patti Boyd Harrison's autobiography. She explains why he was not on his "A" game and why Clapton played the angriest version of Layla she had ever heard. They were all hopped up and hung over after partying at clapton's all night. It was a mad party mad at wives/gf/exs.
He wrote about this in his autobiography. Sweaty hands made his fingers slip on the keys and hit a clam early on. That aside, the rest of the performance, and his stellar voice, kills it.
I love the fact that he grazes that wrong note (I call that jazz..lol)....it makes the performance that much more human. Benjamin Orr (The Cars) makes a few gaffs on the bass-as well as lyrics, in "Just What I Needed" and I actually look forward to them. As a keyboardist in a band, I like seeing that, "yeah....we all have little hiccups". It shows that we're not machines!

It is...last year around the end of March. I was with my child's mother and was doing my best to make it work. Yet, for 3 years...I was to blame for her depression and how I gave her 2 kids that she didn't need. Seeing when we first met she had 2 girls. I stayed through many times where it was rough for us. Tried to do what I thought was right. Yet still wasn't enough. Then last year at end of March. I had to leave them in Canada. I was only on a visitor's pass. Even though I was dual. But with the boarder closing. We didn't want to have me lose my job. I left hoping it wasn't going to last. But it did. And now I'm still blamed for things I wasn't able to control. Told that me leaving was the best that happened to her. Even though there were years of happiness. I miss my children and the ones I helped raise.
Yes it is called musical talent, something you needed to have a couple of decades ago, and a lack of autotune, something you didn't have a couple of decades ago.
@@Hondadctrider no he really made a mistake (which can happen to anyone). If there had been a problem with the piano, the problem would have happened again and Phil would not have continued.
I'm a drummer since the mid 1980s and we all make a LOT of mistakes, most of you in the audience you don't even notice. I can tell you i wish i could play piano too! Phil is great
That mistake and his reaction make the entire video, for me. I love the song regardless, but his performance is that much more earnest for it. In fact, this is my favorite rendition of the song, due to the emotion Phil imparts. And the mistake is part of it, to me.
@@avantesma1 As i said we as musican's always make mistakes, most the time you people in the audience don't notice, that was a big mistake but Phil is primarily a drummer but plays piano very well. Try and sing and play drums or piano or guitar at the same time, it's really not as easy as many think, or don't give it a thought. Try this...tap your hand as a snare drum and your foot as the bass drum and sing any song you like. . 😉
My mum died 35 years ago today and I feel silly still playing this for her every year. I don't always play this song, sometimes I play others. She loved Phil Collins and it was kinda our thing. I hope she knows I didn't forget her and that I miss her every day.
La música que le gustaban a nuestros padres se logra meter tanto en nuestro corazón, que cuando ellos ya no están, al escuchar su música nos hace sentir cerquita de ellos
If you are 15-20 years old and here listening to this song, congratulations you have my respect. We need young people like you so that our real music can continue to exist.
1:05 he misses the note but keeps on going like the absolute legend he is. Sir Phil Collins, thank you for gracing this earth with your music and talent!
@@jevoulaispasdecompte Exactly. My daughters have danced professionally and if the music stops or if they stumble, you just keep going like nothing happened.
Mid July it was hot, humid, his hands were sweaty and a finger slid right off a black key onto a white key. It happens even to the best musicians. Love how he just smiled it away and kept going as if nothing happened. 🎼🎹🥁🎤
Dang someone’s paying attention. 😂 This is such a great performance and my favorite part is before when he thanks everyone and the world, sort of shivers at the thought, then delivers a brilliant performance.
First time watching this video and I noticed him laugh it off and just be like I know I’m the shit. I’m allowed to make mistakes just shut up and listen
OMG....Phil looked like an ordinary person, quite funny type of man always joking and playing....but man, when he opens his mouth and plays an instrument(cause he s a multi instrumentalist) he literally leaves you speechless....pure talent ,Legend

Probably one of the few musicians these days who comes close is Theo Katzman of Vulfpeck but unfortunately, despite the talent, has nowhere near such star attention (jazz not pop)
You really missed out pal! I remember this like yesterday. Phil hopped on a concord after this performance and flew to the United States. What a great time to be an adult back then.
Same. I’m 40 and have seen Queen’s performance since I was a kid but never this gem. Was never really a big Phil Collins fan but I cried the first time I heard this. I’ve watched it about 50 times since then. 😂
@@RobertTaylorGreatfunshop The guy says it as the truth man. We may have never had some major great hits like this if Peter remained with Genesis in 1975/Post Lamb lies down on broadway.
He’s obviously another bitter and twisted individual who has nothing else to do other than be resentful to others, I wouldn’t worry about it too much, the internet is full of them
I'd be honored if some Phil Collins/80s fans would check out my acoustic piano & vocal covers of AGAINST ALL ODDS and ENGLISHMAN IN NEW YORK by Sting on my channel in tribute to the masters. Live acoustic with no autotune. Thanks and peace.
Always remember human beings waved a man in with olive branches and later put him in a cross ... we always seem to do that to people we once adored. Phil is and was an extremely talented musician and hard working bloke ... I agree with you totally : How can anyone dislike it ? It’s genuine and non manufactured ❤️
At 1:04, Phil Collins makes a mistake, but honestly I point this out because this is what I miss about music. The HUMAN aspect behind it where it shows that the imperfections are what make music great. I’d be more worried honestly if Phil was a robot playing it perfect everytime rather than making a mistake like everyone else. Music is meant to be played from the heart no matter if you make a mistake. Mistakes are what make real music authentic and true and relatable to all of us because it shows how close we all really are. Everyone makes mistakes and it’s what makes every art form or even anything more relatable from person to person rather than having a computer program doing all the work for you. Just pure talent and soul.
I'm an 80's kid as well and for him to make a mistake and then smile and continue speaks volumes about how talented he is. By far, one of my favorites of his next to " In the Air Tonight " !! His music is truly timeless!!!
yeah before he started he mumbled "let's see if I can get through this" ... he knew he wasn't a lock on the piano. He had that one small flub and then was good for the rest of the song. really it just legitimizes the whole performance it was very good.
Saw him live last week.. The man's got old, but boy can he still entertain the audience. And he's still got his voice. It was my first time seeing him live, I'm 33 years old, but grew up with his music. I just had to see him, since everyone knows about his physical issues, I figured this would be my last chance. And I'm so glad I did go. Truly deserves "Sir" in front of his name by now.
This Song Is a Masterpiece and it couldn't have been Sung Any Better by ANYONE But Phillip Collins . It Pains me to see how He is, Today with His M.S. May God Bless Him .
back when the movie "Against All Odds" came out, was a teenager hoping one day I'd find a love so powerful. Nearly 20 years ago, me and my wife split for a while, she moved out of state and I was working at a shipyard. As I was leaving the shipyard, the sun was sitting large, low and very red and this song was playing. It inspired me to do whatever it took and not lose hope. We're still together. We LOVE this song. When someone is your WORLD and you'd do ANYTHING to save them. Phil Collins NAILED it. thank you, Sir.
@@chriskennedy2846 that's awesome. The Cheshire cat turned out to be problematic in setting up the experiment. Tumbling down the quantum rabbit hole. Cool you brought it up.
3:02 A guy in the front row throws a disposable camera to a man under the stage. The man takes the camera and is about to take a picture when the guy waves him to stop and instructs him to take a picture to Phil Collins instead. Magical moment.

*Lyrics* [cc] How can I just let you walk away? Just let you leave without a trace When I stand here taking every breath, with you, ooh You're the only one who really knew me at all How can you just walk away from me? When all I can do is watch you leave 'Cos we've shared the laughter and the pain and even shared the tears You're the only one who really knew me at all So take a look at me now, oh there's just an empty space And there's nothin' left here to remind me Just the memory of your face Take a look at me now, well there's just an empty space And you coming back to me is against the odds And that's what I've got to face, ohh I wish, I could just make you turn around Turn around and see me cry There's so much I need to say to you so many reasons why You're the only one who really knew me at all So take a look at me now, well there's just an empty space And there's nothin' left here to remind me, just the memory of your face So take a look at me now, 'cos there's just an empty space But to wait for you, is all I can do and that's what I've got to face Take a good look at me now, 'cos I'll still be standin' here And you coming back to me is against the odds And that's what I've got to face, ohh Take a look at me now.
Wasn’t a wrong note as such, it was in a key where all the black notes are played and his fingers must’ve been sweaty and slipped off on to the white one
Accidentally hit the wrong key. I played the piano growing up, this is not a difficult arrangement to play at all, when we mess up we aren't supposed to give it away by making a face. Its virtually impossible to play the piano and sing and never make a mistake. But this arrangement really was on the beginner/intermediate level of piano playing, he must have been very nervous. His singing was on par though no mistakes there.
Saw him two days ago in Minneapolis. Drove 8 hours from Kansas City and listened to his music all the way up there including old school Genesis. His music is timeless. He is the true definition of a legend, and his performance was amazing. I'm still on a high after finally seeing him perform live again! Love, love, love him!!!
Your so right, Very talented ,so pleased he is out there performing, a great inspiration to my drumming...A genuine and sincere person off and on the stage.....
No phones, no drama, no fancy shit, just a man, his piano and an absolutely stunning song 😢 adore this track, one of my faves. "how can i just let u walk away, let u leave without a trace, your the only one who really knew me at all"..and "take a look at me now,coz ill still be standing here, and u coming back to me is against the odds and thats what ive gotta face".. heartbreakingly powerful lyrics❤❤

@@charleyg2032 If filming wasnt a thing you wouldnt be seeing this now. People recording with their phones are in no way something that should somehow bother you, its their life, not yours
I graduated high school in 85. I saw Phil Collins in concert a couple of years after that. This song's bring me back, he was always my favorite. The man sings like nobody's business and he doesn't need anybody to manipulate it to make it sound good. What I wouldn't do to go back in time and be 20 again

I think he is a bore.To try to make Live aid about him and then be upstaged completely by Freddie was pure justice
how did he try to make it about him you douche

Good job rehashing the top comment.

nonsense, he was always a singer in Genesis before he became lead singer, he did backing vocals on all tracks and also lead vocals on one early track
That is by far the hardest part to believe about Phil Collins. That he might've never been a singer and soundtracked many of our childhoods if he stayed just a drummer.

@@bassAssassin187 I think there is, but it's in underground and not easy to find!
Yes indeed! The good old days! What a day that was, it was so huge...I'll never forget Live Aid '85.
This is the first song I remember. Such a masterpiece
Everyone in that audience took what they were seeing for granted. If they knew that we would all be sitting here in 2024 wishing we could see this again...
I'd be honored if some Phil Collins & Mark Knopfler fans would take a quick listen to my acoustic piano & vocal UA-cam performances of AGAINST ALL ODDS and ON EVERY STREET in tribute to these 2 British legends of songwriting & musicianship. Live acoustic with no autotune or digital editing. Peace and stay safe in the '020s.
Yes 👍
You're getting the best view, and you probably can get to your bathroom easily 😂
I've actually got a tear in my eye; we've lost something special. The 80s...
I think we’d all KILL 2 WITNESS heart & soul LIKE THIS?!? @circ@2024/ad!?!
Real singer, no dubbing no autotune, Phill Collins one the greatest
No autotune, no fog, no edm, just a guy with piano, what a legend.
''needs more cowbell'' But yeah, so true..
And a towel
No costumes!
@@jaypee4288 Yes.. lol
As it should be. 😍
The fact that he hit the wrong key makes this performance even better for me. He smiled it off gracefully and rocked it. 100% human heart
Genius
Put the 'live' in Live Aid. Owns it with class and fun.
Of course.......absoluty!!!!!
Phil didn't "hit the wrong key". The piano was out of tune. All the musicians commented on it, including Freddie Mercury.
@@SuzyQ334 He played an arpeggio in a part when the original recording has a chord played softly a few times. That´s the mistake. I could be wrong but I don´t hear anything off key in his whole performance.
Dear Mr.Phil Collins,there I lay,1987 in a Deep,Deep Coma with massive brain damage.Doctors wanted to turn my life support off after three months in my coma.I have no signs of life,my heart weak,my brain dead,I was history until your beautiful music was played beside my hospital bed.
Within hours my vital sings picked up and I am alive today,to express my joy and happiness to you.My words cannot thank you enough for your wonderful music,It did help save my life.
Wow....thanks God for giving people with such good voice.
Omg🙏really? His Angel voice give you life again with God's help.. And now, who said that Angel not exists? I wish you many, many years, with Phill music🌹😇🎶🙏
Daniel Mcgrath God bless you sir
Wow, this comment NEEDS to make it to Mr. Phil Collins so that he fully understands how incredibly valuable his music is. ♡ I'm so thankful to have read your story, may many blessings continue to come into your life ♡ Sending hugs and many prayers.
I’m in tears literally 😥
Life without smart phones. Crowd simply njoying the music, the moment.
Tell me you are an old narcissist without...
Let me remind you this was the era of the lighter. So, many were distracted getting their lighter to ignite. And to top it off, none of those moments were ever recorded in a photo or movie.
All I know is Phil Collins is the best❤
. Lmao what?
Yes
His voice is an instrument by itself.
Vocals are just another instrument in the construction of a song
Thank you for this great comment, I’m happy to read such comments from you , where are you from?
I was at that moment 9 years old, I was still aware of the event and the music😢😢 beautifull!! Grts Belgium 🇧🇪🇧🇪🇧🇪
No auto-tune, No twerking, No BS. Just pure raw talent
Very true

Ok boomer
Its okay to like both 😊 lol
Verdade puro talento
That voice...sends shiver down my spine. Real talent from real artists, 80s songs will never be forgotten ❤❤❤
Phil has been a family friend with our family for years. I remember being a young kid at this memorable concert.
It seems we are living a real nightmare nowadays! When did we lose such as great talents?
I saw him in Sydney in 1986. Walked out on stage and his voice was perfect, from the first note to the last.
@@carolinaperezcruz8260hello dear how are you doing ❤❤❤❤
I just love Phil Collins, never ever seen a piano player make a tiny error like this one, but like the true professional he is, he plays through it.
What choice did he have? DUH!
No one sings pain like Phil Collins. What a brilliant man! This song NEVER gets old.
True that
For real.
Se la dedicó a su esposa??
I could never understand why other artists in England disliked him, jealousy I guess.
He is Daniel Radclife if he let dat alcoholism win
When I was 6 my mum died from probable suicide and 5 years later I heard this song. When the radio played it for the first time it cut me to my very core and 40 years later it still does. It is a remarkable song, Phil's voice timeless and perfect, he wrote and created a magnificent masterwork. It resonates with profound meaning.
probable? Tell us more.
This is real music folks! This song so takes you down memory lane! Who is still listening to the good stuff in 2022? 💜🎵👍
👍🏻😊
Moi
❤️ I'll always love and listen to Phil!
This was one of my karaoke songs love it.
Sei que um dia ele vai partir, como todos nos.Mais as canções vão permanecer pois são eternas🙏
I LOVE live versions! One missed key, a smile ....this adds to a great, heart touching song even more heart!!!!
The vocals in this performance are incredible. Phil Collins truly is one of the best musicians ever.
Gets better and better the older and more life experienced, you get..!!!!!!!
Yes, fantastic
He is
I love the part where he’s messes up, cringes, and keeps going. A true professional.
I'd be honored if some Phil Collins fans would take a listen to my acoustic piano & vocal covers of AGAINST ALL ODDS and WE SAID HELLO GOODBYE on my YT channel in tribute to one of the true all-time masters of pop/rock art. Live acoustic with no autotune or digital editing. Thanks and peace.
This song just touched so magically..
👍🎼🎼
He says he never learnt to play it properly.
1:04
Phil never had a bad song. If the 80s has a voice it is Phil’s.
I grow up in the 80s and 90s . Some of the best music 🎵🎶.
Right ON
Add Micheal Jackson and Freddie Mercury
Sussussudio is pretty bad
I adore this man, authentic man, authentic music, not like the crap we lumbered with today, 💛 a true ⭐️
That voice is a gift from god. Love from USA 🇺🇸 phil collins!
Phil Collins is no joke folks. The talent on this cat is immense.
Amen!

Like a god... walking amongst mere mortals
It would be ridiculous to call him underrated,you know, considering he was immensely popular, with a plethora of top hits... but I still don't think people realize how good he really was. He made catchy, listenable songs, so it was easy to overlook his very real talent.
First time for me to recognize name of this song.
What a strong voice with sitting and playing the piano.
Phil is really talented.
All it took was a piano and a voice. Those were the days.
Man, such emotion in that song. A classic for all time!!
I Thank God everyday I was able to grow up in the 80s & early 90s. I truly believe that was the best time to have been a kid
PJ Braun I so envy you!!! I love all movies and music from that period, and my generation is all Instagram, social media and gangster rap. 😢
@@sadviolinproductions391 here's a little secret...the majority of the 80's music sucked but a few gems survived. Same goes for today, listen for the gems, they will survive and 20 years from now someone will say to you exactly what you just said to PJ.
Agree
Love the mistake and he reacts. Humble, flawed and human
Yes, in France, we say "canard" (to make a duke 😄)
And music teachers always said to me, if you do wrong note, make tour possible not to show it on your face 😊😊
Dean Bevin
hahaha..you caught that?
@@atomyglobalvision7001 i did as well, but don't mind at all.
Caught it?? How could I miss it!
My god, this is so amazing. Not only one of the greatest drummers of all time, he can also do this. No effects , no bullshit. Just pure talent. Incredible.
He misses a key early on, cringes & smiles, then powers through with a voice that elevates nostalgia like every strand of hair at the back of my neck. Beautiful songwriter, tremendous performer. Live-Aid may be the best live music event since Woodstock . . .
an awesome performance. Check out Patti Boyd Harrison's autobiography. She explains why he was not on his "A" game and why Clapton played the angriest version of Layla she had ever heard. They were all hopped up and hung over after partying at clapton's all night. It was a mad party mad at wives/gf/exs.
He wrote about this in his autobiography. Sweaty hands made his fingers slip on the keys and hit a clam early on. That aside, the rest of the performance, and his stellar voice, kills it.
Hell of a voice for a drummer.
John Black remember watching this with my now wife Phil and queen were the best performers on the day 👌🏻👌🏻🎥🎥
I love the fact that he grazes that wrong note (I call that jazz..lol)....it makes the performance that much more human. Benjamin Orr (The Cars) makes a few gaffs on the bass-as well as lyrics, in "Just What I Needed" and I actually look forward to them. As a keyboardist in a band, I like seeing that, "yeah....we all have little hiccups". It shows that we're not machines!
Wonderful voice and playing. Timeless. The mistake at 1:06 is legendary but who cares. Just smile. Like Phil. A true legend.
yeah let's remember that's the drummer at the piano right there, and killing it
@@bfne00 totally agree 💯🤘

Phil Collins...❣❣❣❣❣❣❣❣❣❣❣❣...Best...Listing off....The World❣❣
He hadn't slept either did he not do a few gigs within a couple of hours
I believe that This Song is among the most emotional songs ever written.😪
😇
exactly; i have to be in a mood to listen otherwise its very hard :(
yeah how about the move? jeff bridges
It is...last year around the end of March. I was with my child's mother and was doing my best to make it work. Yet, for 3 years...I was to blame for her depression and how I gave her 2 kids that she didn't need. Seeing when we first met she had 2 girls. I stayed through many times where it was rough for us. Tried to do what I thought was right. Yet still wasn't enough. Then last year at end of March. I had to leave them in Canada. I was only on a visitor's pass. Even though I was dual. But with the boarder closing. We didn't want to have me lose my job. I left hoping it wasn't going to last. But it did. And now I'm still blamed for things I wasn't able to control. Told that me leaving was the best that happened to her. Even though there were years of happiness. I miss my children and the ones I helped raise.
@@GalthT hope as far as kids it will turn around
I'm primarily a metalhead but I love Phil Collins and other soft rock and hard rock bands
I watch this today and it's soooo much better than the shows nowadays - pure talent , no bullshit 👏👏 Phill is one of the greatest
Raw traditional talent, no filtering or digital enhancement!
Hello dear how are you doing ❤❤❤❤
When he sings live he sounds just as good as he does on his albums.
I was just thinking that
Exatamente isso
he's my childhood idol, one of the reason i love music back then...
this song do triggers my lost childhood....
sorry just crying again
Yes it is called musical talent, something you needed to have a couple of decades ago, and a lack of autotune, something you didn't have a couple of decades ago.
I like when he smiles at his little piano mistake....
He didn't make a mistake, there was a problem with the piano.
@@Hondadctrider no he really made a mistake (which can happen to anyone). If there had been a problem with the piano, the problem would have happened again and Phil would not have continued.
I'm a drummer since the mid 1980s and we all make a LOT of mistakes, most of you in the audience you don't even notice. I can tell you i wish i could play piano too! Phil is great
That mistake and his reaction make the entire video, for me.
I love the song regardless, but his performance is that much more earnest for it.
In fact, this is my favorite rendition of the song, due to the emotion Phil imparts. And the mistake is part of it, to me.
@@avantesma1 As i said we as musican's always make mistakes, most the time you people in the audience don't notice, that was a big mistake but Phil is primarily a drummer but plays piano very well. Try and sing and play drums or piano or guitar at the same time, it's really not as easy as many think, or don't give it a thought. Try this...tap your hand as a snare drum and your foot as the bass drum and sing any song you like. . 😉
I'm crying. 2024. He is so incredible ❤ God bless his music and his unbelievable talent.
Love ur honesty..me TOO..Barry in Tulsa, Ok!!
❤
My mum died 35 years ago today and I feel silly still playing this for her every year. I don't always play this song, sometimes I play others. She loved Phil Collins and it was kinda our thing. I hope she knows I didn't forget her and that I miss her every day.
Lolita Dolorosa 🙏🏽
Lolita Dolorosa why would you feel silly I bet your mom loves it .keep doing it

@@GreenyAU congratulations !
14 right here
1:05 he misses the note but keeps on going like the absolute legend he is. Sir Phil Collins, thank you for gracing this earth with your music and talent!
When you learn to play an instrument that's one if the first things you've been told. When performing in front of people keep going no matter what.
I admire him for that because it was a bad note, I heard it from toilet 2 rooms away when it was first on TV.
@@jevoulaispasdecompte Exactly. My daughters have danced professionally and if the music stops or if they stumble, you just keep going like nothing happened.
It doesnt sound wrong though. Has some kind of blues feel to it xD
Man I really wish this was only 6 years ago! Phil is a musical legend! It’s truly a-shame that we can’t be around longer in this life.
Mid July it was hot, humid, his hands were sweaty and a finger slid right off a black key onto a white key. It happens even to the best musicians. Love how he just smiled it away and kept going as if nothing happened. 🎼🎹🥁🎤
Dang someone’s paying attention. 😂
This is such a great performance and my favorite part is before when he thanks everyone and the world, sort of shivers at the thought, then delivers a brilliant performance.
First time watching this video and I noticed him laugh it off and just be like I know I’m the shit. I’m allowed to make mistakes just shut up and listen
@@YinzerStephen This concert was being relayed LIVE around the entire world. He had nowhere to hide lol.
OMG....Phil looked like an ordinary person, quite funny type of man always joking and playing....but man, when he opens his mouth and plays an instrument(cause he s a multi instrumentalist) he literally leaves you speechless....pure talent ,Legend
Gosh, no kidding.. the transition from joking to starting to play shows how authentic and amazing he is.
I'd be honored if some Phil Collins & Mark Knopfler fans would take a quick listen to my acoustic piano & vocal UA-cam performances of AGAINST ALL ODDS ua-cam.com/video/CjtDO9pWnig/v-deo.html and ON EVERY STREET in tribute to these 2 British legends of songwriting & musicianship. Live acoustic with no autotune or digital editing. Peace and stay safe.
those were the days.. not just Phil with his pure raw talent,we were as much raw as it could be! No superficials & artificials
Yes. To be fair though he looked bloody terrified and I don't blame him.
Probably one of the few musicians these days who comes close is Theo Katzman of Vulfpeck but unfortunately, despite the talent, has nowhere near such star attention (jazz not pop)
I'm 44 years old and this is my first time hearing this version 😄 What a voice!
You really missed out pal! I remember this like yesterday. Phil hopped on a concord after this performance and flew to the United States. What a great time to be an adult back then.
First time you. First time me! 🤯
I just heard this for the first time too and I turned 44 two months ago when you posted this! A great moment in time. Love Phil Collins!
Same. I’m 40 and have seen Queen’s performance since I was a kid but never this gem.
Was never really a big Phil Collins fan but I cried the first time I heard this.
I’ve watched it about 50 times since then. 😂
Me too! Goosebumps
I fell in love with Phil Collins in 1989 & im still in love with him in 2024. That’s a 35 year love affair with a man I’ve never met.
If Peter Gabriel hadn't left Genesis, we may never have known that Phil was anything more then a drummer. Sing it Phil!
dumbass comment !
@@RobertTaylorGreatfunshop The guy says it as the truth man. We may have never had some major great hits like this if Peter remained with Genesis in 1975/Post Lamb lies down on broadway.
How can someone have such a flawless voice? Damn, his tone and range is everything! We love you, Phil!
Phil had a flawless voice in the 70s and early 80s. By 2007 he was just a pitiful caricature of himself.
@@onkelebert787 why so negative? Nothing lasts forever, man.
He’s obviously another bitter and twisted individual who has nothing else to do other than be resentful to others, I wouldn’t worry about it too much, the internet is full of them
@@onkelebert787 In the Rome 2007 concert, he still sounded great, don't you think?
He is definitely loved! Let's keep him in our prayers
A voice and a piano playing his own song, all live, all true, natural talent. Understood young “talent” shows “singers”?
I'd be honored if some Phil Collins/80s fans would check out my acoustic piano & vocal covers of AGAINST ALL ODDS and ENGLISHMAN IN NEW YORK by Sting on my channel in tribute to the masters. Live acoustic with no autotune. Thanks and peace.
I was fortunate to see Phil live on my 25th Birthday in Hyde Park and I was awesome struck, it was a beautiful and emotional performance. ❤
I cannot understand how someone can dislike this...this man sang and played REALLY live and from his heart
Great....voice, talent It is all
me too
Always remember human beings waved a man in with olive branches and later put him in a cross ... we always seem to do that to people we once adored. Phil is and was an extremely talented musician and hard working bloke ... I agree with you totally : How can anyone dislike it ?
It’s genuine and non manufactured ❤️
@@razmaries cannot agree more...amen
People that are used to auto tune and special effects.
At 1:04, Phil Collins makes a mistake, but honestly I point this out because this is what I miss about music. The HUMAN aspect behind it where it shows that the imperfections are what make music great. I’d be more worried honestly if Phil was a robot playing it perfect everytime rather than making a mistake like everyone else. Music is meant to be played from the heart no matter if you make a mistake. Mistakes are what make real music authentic and true and relatable to all of us because it shows how close we all really are. Everyone makes mistakes and it’s what makes every art form or even anything more relatable from person to person rather than having a computer program doing all the work for you. Just pure talent and soul.
It made the song...on that day!
Wow! That's why the attendees bought the tickets and went to the show instead of just playing the record at home. Its dope how you noticed that.
A mistake that sounds like its part of the song and I love it
I saw it, he continued like a boss
I noticed it first time I watched the video. Got the same thought like you.
I'm an 80's kid as well and for him to make a mistake and then smile and continue speaks volumes about how talented he is. By far, one of my favorites of his next to " In the Air Tonight " !! His music is truly timeless!!!
Yep 👍
yeah before he started he mumbled "let's see if I can get through this" ... he knew he wasn't a lock on the piano. He had that one small flub and then was good for the rest of the song. really it just legitimizes the whole performance it was very good.
Such a beautiful heart wrenching song, this song broke me, when I lost the love of my life, back in the early 80's
Phil Collins, a true natural musician. Don't have many like him today.
Don't have any today not many.
Performer's today could not hold a candle to guy's like Phil and other back in the day
No lip syncing here, and the music is live. He missed a beat at the beginning,. That my friend, is how real music was. No extra crap. All real 1985
Amen!
That missed note made it even more real for me!
Yes, not a bad pianist at all. For a drummer that is.
His mistake is classic. Made the performance even more legendary.
No one could have found better words than that my dear, no one!!
Another hero of mine, never faked a single concert. A true legend.
Straight
Why do they fake concerts so gay
Saw him live last week.. The man's got old, but boy can he still entertain the audience. And he's still got his voice.
It was my first time seeing him live, I'm 33 years old, but grew up with his music. I just had to see him, since everyone knows about his physical issues, I figured this would be my last chance. And I'm so glad I did go. Truly deserves "Sir" in front of his name by now.
Even the little piano slip-up is endearing. A very personal rendition of one of my favorite songs. I've probably watched this twenty times.
A true genius of music. No computers. No cosmetics. I saw him perform at Grenoble. 1985. Unbelievable. I was next to Sir Phil Collins. Thanks you Sir.
PHIL COLLINS plays perfectly and sings like an angel, thats beauty isn't it?
YES Indeed!!!
The dude nailed it, hopped on the Concorde, and then played at Live Aid in Philly, too. Legend.
This Song Is a Masterpiece and it couldn't have been Sung Any Better by ANYONE But Phillip Collins . It Pains me to see how He is, Today with His M.S. May God Bless Him .
This song came out during the time I was going out with my third girlfriend. It still reminds me of her, 37 years later.
@@aldunlop4622 Beautiful Track, and it definitely Makes u reminisce.
back when the movie "Against All Odds" came out, was a teenager hoping one day I'd find a love so powerful. Nearly 20 years ago, me and my wife split for a while, she moved out of state and I was working at a shipyard. As I was leaving the shipyard, the sun was sitting large, low and very red and this song was playing. It inspired me to do whatever it took and not lose hope. We're still together. We LOVE this song. When someone is your WORLD and you'd do ANYTHING to save them. Phil Collins NAILED it. thank you, Sir.
Wow! 🥺👏🏼 That’s actually awesome! 🙏🏻🤍

Phil Collins is without doubt one of the most underrated singer, songwriter, musicians of all time. Love from Ireland 🇮🇪 ❤
Never knew how cold it is in Dublin until here recently. Man o man, I couldn't live there for the cold, but love the people and bars.
He is only of only three artists to have sold 100,000,000 albums as a soloist and in a group (P. McCartney, M. Jackson). So, he was pretty rated!
@@jonburrows2684 Dublin doesn’t get particularly cold. Irelands climate is mild. Not particularly hot or cold.

Phil Collins, a brilliant singer, brilliant pianist, brilliant drummer. This was back when musicians were actual musicians.
For real..
There are still musicians who are actual musicians, and quite good ones. But I agree this is great.
Brilliant pianist? No
Good music. I am so glad I grew up on this music. Bless you Phil
Phil Collins is a true artist. One of the greatest entertainers who will ever live on this earth. It's so sad seeing him in the condition he is now.
Seeing fsbulous Phil in 2023 looking so frail is heartbreaking.
Looking back now ..what a performance..Phil walks on stage with a bottle of water, no fancy electronics and just smashes it..respect..🎵🎶👏

How can I just let you walk away?
Just let you leave without a trace
When I stand here taking every breath, with you, ooh
You're the only one who really knew me at all
How can you just walk away from me?
When all I can do is watch you leave
'Cos we've shared the laughter and the pain and even shared the tears
You're the only one who really knew me at all
So take a look at me now, oh there's just an empty space
And there's nothin' left here to remind me
Just the memory of your face
Take a look at me now, well there's just an empty space
And you coming back to me is against the odds
And that's what I've got to face, ohh
I wish, I could just make you turn around
Turn around and see me cry
There's so much I need to say to you so many reasons why
You're the only one who really knew me at all
So take a look at me now, well there's just an empty space
And there's nothin' left here to remind me, just the memory of your face
So take a look at me now, 'cos there's just an empty space
But to wait for you, is all I can do and that's what I've got to face
Take a good look at me now, 'cos I'll still be standin' here
And you coming back to me is against the odds
And that's what I've got to face, ohh
Take a look at me now.
Man is one hell of a singer. No autotune or back up vocals just pure talent. This is my favorite phill Collins song
01:05 wrong note!!! loved that smile after...
Wasn’t a wrong note as such, it was in a key where all the black notes are played and his fingers must’ve been sweaty and slipped off on to the white one
Yes, a perfect wrong note for a perfect song.
Not a wrong note asshole the piano
Accidentally hit the wrong key. I played the piano growing up, this is not a difficult arrangement to play at all, when we mess up we aren't supposed to give it away by making a face. Its virtually impossible to play the piano and sing and never make a mistake. But this arrangement really was on the beginner/intermediate level of piano playing, he must have been very nervous. His singing was on par though no mistakes there.
Cozette M in his autobiography he said he was so sweaty that his hand slipped off the key causing the mishap.
Saw him two days ago in Minneapolis. Drove 8 hours from Kansas City and listened to his music all the way up there including old school Genesis. His music is timeless. He is the true definition of a legend, and his performance was amazing. I'm still on a high after finally seeing him perform live again! Love, love, love him!!!
angie ring I saw him in Columbus last Friday and it was absolutely the best concert I’ve ever been to! He’s still so brilliant!
Your so right, Very talented ,so pleased he is out there performing, a great inspiration to my drumming...A genuine and sincere person off and on the stage.....
Did his son happen to perform on the drums or was it just Phil? Wonderful memory to have. He's such a trooper these days.
Hes the man
Saw him in Chicago a few weeks back and he was great. Still puts on an amazing show and his son absolutely killed it on drums.
Weird to see the crowd just watching the performance and not trying to capture it all on their cellphone. Those were the days.
Yes the end of a era it was a great time to grow up
Just what i was thinking. Everyone would be too busy doing tik toks or whatever these days.
if they had cellphones they would have been doing that though
They were the best days of my life I wish we had them days back hi from Ireland
The good old days.
No phones, no drama, no fancy shit, just a man, his piano and an absolutely stunning song 😢 adore this track, one of my faves. "how can i just let u walk away, let u leave without a trace, your the only one who really knew me at all"..and "take a look at me now,coz ill still be standing here, and u coming back to me is against the odds and thats what ive gotta face".. heartbreakingly powerful lyrics❤❤
How the hell do you want a phone here since its 1985?
@@FranciscoFJM the point of saying that in my comment was these days ppl go to concerts etc n watch it thru their phone, so back in those days it was a better time to just go and cherish being in the moment!
@@charleyg2032 If filming wasnt a thing you wouldnt be seeing this now.
People recording with their phones are in no way something that should somehow bother you, its their life, not yours
Looking back you realise back then you had to be GIFTED to be someone in the music business.
Amen
So Very True❤️
It's a fact.
I miss those days man
Or at least hard-working. I cannot believe someone like Cardi B could make it these days. It’s just insane.
There is nothing more sincere than someone singing a song they wrote with all the feeling they had when they wrote it
I graduated high school in 85. I saw Phil Collins in concert a couple of years after that. This song's bring me back, he was always my favorite. The man sings like nobody's business and he doesn't need anybody to manipulate it to make it sound good. What I wouldn't do to go back in time and be 20 again
It brings back sweet memories of our younger years..✌️

1985 the good old days. I graduated in 1981. Bit older, but we all pushing 60 now. Wow! This music still rocks

Same exact time period for me. Serious DITTO!
