      And Questlove KILLS it! What's the most amazing to me is that Questlove does a 2-drummer part all by himself. If you look back at all the live versions of this song, you usually see a drummer keeping rhythm & Phil doing the iconic roll and all the fills that come afterwards. Very impressive

      I agree. I love the fact he sounds older. There are so many great singers who we don't get to experience them still singing. Some because they passed away and others because of health issues and some (if not many) because they know people will give then crap for not sounding the same . I know Phil is seen as one of the greatest drummers and for him to get up there still sing and let someone else take over one of his most iconic drumming parts is awesome.

His back pain is what made him stop touring. :( Last of his concert were done sitting in a chair. He is LEGENDARY!!!

      I used to work for a Production Company that provided stage, PA, and Lighting for Concerts. Around the year 2002 we were providing everything for a Clearchannel/Budweiser Summer Concert Series. We ordered a whole brand new Yamaha drum kit for Questlove. Very expensive kit. I un-boxed everything. The only drums he used was Kick drum, Snare, Hi hat, Floor tom, and 2 Symbols. That's all he used, and he was badass. He can do it with less.

      Has nothing to do with his age. He hurt his back. It's gotten progressively worse since its appearance. If you don't know, all singers do know, if you hurt your back it's incredibly difficult to sing. You need to really puff up your lungs to push those notes, sustain those notes. You can't do that with a bad back. I've had it happen to me back when I was singing with a band. It's a nightmare.

      Was thinking the same. He is an accomplished musician and has played with numerous artists through the year, but personally, I was a drummer, doing the drumming bride in In the Air Tonight with Phil Collins performing would be some kind of dream come true.

      I don't know ?uestlove, but I know his taste in music, and it's hard to imagine that playing the solo to this song while Phil Collins sings wasn't fulfilling a lifelong dream that he never imagined in a million years, despite all his success, could ever come true.

      Chris Thomson even if it is not a complicated drum play, he was playing for Phil Collins... The man himself is a drummer, and with everyone expecting Questlove to play it as awesome as it should be, that's a lot of over-whelming peer pressure. To screw up even the slightest, would mean brand nation of every low class name for a long time.

      This is not like some " on / off " thing, " doing it, or not doing it "
      you realize the kick drum is also heavily involved in the ' fill ' 3:25
      The double kick drum with the toms, you can do it with a single drum stick, but to get the feel with the kick drum into the fill, and doing it as tightly as Questlove did, is actually very hard.
      you seem to believe that a avarage drummer with 10 years experience, would be able to play this with all the nuances that were in this performance. you obviously know very little of music.
      maybe at some point, you will also start to notice the subtle nuances that sets apart mediocre musicians from good musicians.

    • @Kyra_2424

    Now, this HE is a LEGEND and an ICON. He has earned that title, not what people call today, people that have been around for a couple of years and can't sing like that on their best day. They're icon, legend, diva, and queen. Those adjectives are earned and not be given away like candy.

    I loved this song, all my life! Then on the night of of February 10th 2018 my wife of 28 years died in my arms, from a blood clot. The ambulance came and took her away. They had worked on her for over an hour. It was a cold and wet night. I got in our car and headed to the hospital, this song was playing over the radio. It now, makes me feel guilty. I was a nurse, and I should have seen the signs of her condition. I’m alone with my guilt. We had been planning a special 30th anniversary. January 12th 2020 I spent the day with my wife next to her. I still have the $100.00 bottle of champagne. Phil if you read this, thank you so much. I have been a fan of yours and Geniuses since the 70’s. You are a gift to this world. Thank you 🙏

I say he sang great and as a songwriter myself, I will always want to hear the songwriter sing his song more than anyone else. Great job Phil. This song is so great, I now added it to my set list of Karaoke songs I sing. Everyone claps when the drums come in when I sing this song! Cheers!

    I don't know how anybody else feels, but I LOVE the way Phil Collins' singing voice has matured as an elderly man. He sings In The Air Tonight with slightly different set of emotional flow throughout, compared to original performances, which I think gives it a whole new dynamic... again, adding to its timelessness. Excellent!
