    What you may not have known is that Phil Collins played at Live Aid England then took a Concorde supersonic Jet to the US where he performed at Live Aid America and could still belt out another performance. Although he can play the Piano very well. He is at heart a Drummer from his time with the band Genesis.
    His transatlantic flight and both performances were all achieved on the same day. Thousands of miles and an Ocean alart. Sound's bonkers but 100 % true. For1985, this and both countries coming together to raise money and awareness of the terrible famine in Ethiopia was quite an achievement. I don't believe there will ever be anything even close to what one man Bob Geldoff, through sheer force of will, created this one time in history . A truly extraordinary world event viewed by close to half of all people's on the entire planet.

    He did play the song again without a hitch, when straight after Wembley he flew to do the same gig in Philadelphia with Concorde. His finger slipped off the black piano key, because it was on a white stage and so incredibly hot, that he was sweating quite a lot. 😅
    On that same Wembley stage, Sting and Branford Marsalis are there in the background. Before Phil appeared, they performed Roxanne. Then after Against All Odds, the three of them did Long Long Way To Go and Every Breath You Take (the former appears on Phil's 3rd solo album No Jacket Required, and Sting did backing vocals on this song and Take Me Home).

    Before took over as lead singer for the band Genesis after Peter Gabriel left and then he went to a solo career in the 1980s. He acted in some movies back in the eighties too. "The World we Live in" was a lesser known song that was overlooked by the charts.

    Boomer here. Lol You may or may not know this but Phil starting this song was a music 1st. Phil became the 1st big musician to play on 2 diff continents within 24 hrs. He played early at Wembly stadium in England, then hauled ass to fly to Phillidelphia to play at the 2nd venue. Philly and Wembly were doing Live Aid at the same time with a big list of musicians at both locations. The television broadcast would switch back and forth. Anyways, glad you enjoy some old Phil.

Phil used to live about 10 miles away from me right on the border of Surrey/West Sussex where myself and a colleague fitted the carpets etc in his and Genesis's private recording studio about 30 odd years ago He's a lovely down to earth genuine bloke also did some work for his Genesis bandmate Mike Rutherford who's also a nice bloke who had a big solo hit called "The Living Years" worth checking out Anyway all the best from across the pond Jim, Surrey, England X

    My two other break up songs by him that I love are "One More Night", and "Separate Lives". This as well as "In The Air Tonight" were written after the break up with his first wife. For his more upbeat songs try "Don't Loses My Number", "Sussudio", and his duet with Phillip Bailey from Earth, Wind, and Fire, "Easy Lover". All great cuts. Try the live version of Phil doing "In The Air Tonight" form "Finally...The First Farewell Tour". It murders the studio version. How about Smokey doing the black and white live version of "Ooh Baby Baby"?

  • @jwsel
    @jwsel 3 роки тому +2

    This was his first number one song. As much as I like the Live Aid versions (he played the song at Wembley early in the concert, hopped aboard the Concorde to the U.S., and played it again in Philadelphia), I prefer the studio and other live versions, which have the heavy drum enter midway. That makes this a true 80s power ballad.
    Phil Collins, who is one of the most successful pop/rock stars in history. He’s one of only three performers who has sold 100 million albums as a solo artist and with a band. The other two are Paul McCartney and Michael Jackson.
    Collins was the drummer and then the lead singer of the progressive rock band Genesis from 1970-1996. He started a solo career in 1981, and had a string of hits through the 80s of his own songs and with Genesis. For starters, even if you don’t like the song, you need to check out this live performance of In The Air Tonight from 2004: m.ua-cam.com/video/IeDMnyQzS88/v-deo.html. It’s amazing (which is why it had 95 million views when I last checked).
    Some solo songs to react to: I Don’t Care Anymore. (The live version from the 1992 Perkins Palace concert is great if you want to see raw vocals and more great drums m.ua-cam.com/video/zZ3GA6dazTA/v-deo.html). Another Day in Paradise won the Grammy for Record of the Year ua-cam.com/video/Qt2mbGP6vFI/v-deo.html. Also, his song I Wish It Would Rain Down is phenomenal and has great guitar work by Eric Clapton (who also appears in the official video which has a lot of in-jokes ua-cam.com/video/YcY3FH208l8/v-deo.html). And Easy Lover is an up-tempo duet with Philip Bailey of Earth Wind and Fire ua-cam.com/video/JkRKT6T0QLg/v-deo.html.
    You also should check out Phil’s work with the band Genesis. There are so many songs there - Mama (check out this live version from 1987 m.ua-cam.com/video/WcfuvgQJ1pY/v-deo.html), That’s All, Tonight Tonight Tonight, Land of Confusion, In Too Deep, Home By the Sea/Second Home By the Sea (here’s a great live version ua-cam.com/video/P7Ko79vytWA/v-deo.html), Dance on Volcano, and Ripples - just for starters. (One fascinating thing about Phil Collins is that he alternated between solo albums and Genesis albums in the 1980s. Between the two, he released 8 or 9 albums in that decade, plus several songs that appeared on soundtracks.)
    Generally, for Phil’s solo stuff and with Genesis, I recommend concert versions. The music is a bit more raw and Phil lets loose a bit more vocally. The exceptions are: Genesis’ Land of Confusion (the official video is 80s craziness satirizing politicians and celebrities using puppets); Phil’s duet with Philip Bailey, Easy Lover (nobody does Bailey’s parts justice when performing live); Another Day in Paradise (with a very powerful video), and Phil’s I Wish It Would Rain Down (the studio version and official video have Eric Clapton - and the video is full of in-jokes).

    I know young people don't think of Phil as a rocker but I suggest some earlier Genesis stuff, where Phil was best known for his passionate screaming. Might I suggest Mama: live 1987. The cage: 3 sides live. Dodo/ Lurker: 3 sides live...and for your lady, slipperman/ afterglow:3sides live. Follow you,Follow me: preferably live. No reply at all: 3 sides live. Invisible touch.As for Phil's solo stuff...I wish it would rain down,I don't care anymore: live from Perkins Palace. Live is key with Phil. I hardly ever listen to the studio versions because it's missing the magic.

    He's the only artist who played the 2 concerts, live aid 1985! He played with Led Zeppelin on drums, live at Wembley, London (Jonh Bonham, was dead since 5 years at that time), and after, he took, the CONCORDE, the fantastic supersonic french airplaine, (sorry, i'm proud as i'm french), and 6 hours later, he was in USA, and, he played that concert in Philadelphia! That's why, he, probably, made a false note at the beginning? But, who cares? It was a charity concert in 2 countries, and he played the both shows to help! FANTASTIC! Peace from France guys 😅👍✌️

So the song is called Ghost love score (live at wacken 2013). It is like you are in a movie when you hear this (thats why it is called a score). First you think of a battle scene of lord of the rings than you go to the disney fase and then they pick it back up to go to the pirates of the carribean. Except this is in no way the original song from the movies but still you think you are in one. Of course the band is great but the singer is the real deal of this band. so let youre mind be blown and enjoy Nightwish - Ghost love score (live at wacken 2013)

But....can't say I "love" it. I think it just might be overrated. In fact, with the vantage point of history, is Phil Collins maybe overrated? "Another day for you and me in paradise" is pablum. But I can't really answer my own question, as this present song is a damn fine bit of songwriting. Maybe his best song; I can't think of a better composition by him.

Elton John has a Lyricist that writes for him. Elton himself say he doesn't write lyrics he only writes music.
