This is arguably the best vocal performance Phil Collins ever did on any official record/video. Absolutely stunning. Dark, emotional, even creepy.

Can we all please appreciate Tony Banks' incredibly haunting synth effects?

Riding through liberty city in GTA 4 while blasting this song was one of the greatest feelings ever.

Mama is the most important for everybody who is born in this World

The intensity in this is incredible

The most amazing song I've ever heard ,my mum is dying in hospital, but I used to cry when heard it when it first came out ,luv you mum😊❤

My mother passed away from cancer in 2022. Since then I'm listening to this song at least twice a year - in may, when her birthday is and in september, when she was gone. I'm terribly sorry for every word of love left unspoken and every word of anger I let to come out of my mouth when she was alive. It's almost impossible to forgive myself for all the sadness I've brought to her wasting my life in vain.

One of the most underrated songs in music history!

phil s voice is from another galaxy

After all these years, this song still makes my skin crawl.

One of the best Genesis song ever!!!! 👏👏👏👏

My mother died 10 years ago. Now in this days I would like to have her mental support.

Twisted, dark, gothic, creepy. The best one. 🖤

I think Phil sings this exactly the right way: slightly unhinged. It’s a brilliant performance.

Yes, I'm still listening, I'm 62 🥰

I' m still listening I' m 83.

80' what a brilliant era, we had everything. Life was amazing, today we have have memories

Only Phil Collins could sing such a powerful and haunting song like this.Its truly a brilliant piece of music ever made by him, well done.

Phil Collins’ vocals cut through the air like a chainsaw on this track - what a performer!

One of the best. Glad to have lived in the 80s.

The effort Phil put in this song is outstanding, the way he recreated the man's obsession towards the woman. What a singer, what an interpretation!

Phil Collins has incredible voice.Respect.

Never was touched by a song in this way. A cry out for many hearts who are silenced by fear! Thank you for sreaming and putting your pain in this song. It helped me to cry. I hope it will help others to deal with anger and pain. There is hope and healing for all wounds. Isaiah 53 🌿📖 ❤️‍🩹🙏

forty years have passed and this song is still amazing.timeless.

Phil Collins voice is amazing but you can't help but appreciate how complicated that musical composition was. I've never heard anything so complex and haunting before. It's unique music like this that can stand the test of time.

Phil's voice was superb on this song I think.

What a singer and what a drummer.

Thanks for this masterpiece! Iam 43 years now & still listen for it , miss u mom 😢😢R I P.

Phil is an extraordinary singer, musician, drummer and an actor..he isn't playing the song..he is the lyrics..wow..

Послушал эту песню после видео дяди Саши Пушного о Филе Коллинзе. А ведь реально крутая песня!

This song is eternal!

Grand theft auto 4 forever in my heart❤

This is more hardcore than a lot of metal songs. Phil's voice is badass in this.

GTA4 comes to mind.. those days were my best days ever.

Absolutely perfection, I was only a child in the 80’s but I still love it😊 they don’t make songs like this anymore.

one of the best things about 50 years old,is the fact that i lived my teenage years in the 80's that is priceless and Iam grateful !!!

Phil takes this to another level, to the point of total insanity and depravity. But still totally controlled. A genius at work, right there!

That haunting sound with the keyboard is unreal

I really do think the UK made the best music. Some really incredible things came from there.

Still today one of the most intriguing and beautiful songs by Genesis..so dark, so intense.....Phil gave one of the most outstanding vocal interpretations in his whole life.....WOW!!!!

It's sickening how good this is.

Here we go again folks... ANOTHER great Phil Collins tune.!. Brilliant.

Incidental Phill Collins Mum was the deputy head at my school back in the late 70’s. A Lovely woman as I remember. Phill himself even made an appearance at the school once or twice!

I love it, when drummers create music, it has a real special rhythm. And this song is really absolute great.

Ребят, есть кто от Пушного?) Впервые услышал эту песню сегодня, не могу поверить, что прожил 30 лет и она ни разу мне не попалась.

this is a masterpiece

I'm getting old but this masterpiece will never get old

I had never been that much a fan of Phil Collins, and as a kid remembered this as the weird laugh, mildly depressing song. But still it was somewhere in my memory as one step above the usual level.. Then, the other night, 25 years later, I heard it on the radio, driving under the rain on a lost mountain road, on my way to army training.. Gave me chills from the beginning to the end. The musical construction, the vocal performance, the raw emotion carried are out of this world. An old Argentinian lady once told me "you're too young to dance Tango. To really understand Tango, you must have suffered in life. To the point of insanity. Have experienced the absurdity of existence. And now just like that I realised the same goes with progressive rock....

why is Phil Collins not in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame? Genesis is there but PC should be listed separately as he is an absolute genius I love his music and him, what a wonderful gifted human being. Thank you Phil for making life better

Ever since I first heard of this song when I was playing GTA 4, I've always been drawn to the raw emotion he put into this

This music is one of the greatest masterpiece from Genesis!!! Absolutely terrific, dark, intense and remembers me what I'm made of!!!

Intrigue, Fear, Drama, Despair and Obsession... this song is a masterpiece. from the melody, the vocal power, the interpretation and the lyrics that, in my opinion, have multiple readings and all of them fit in a very valid way with what it transmits. This is Genesis and especially Phil in all his vocal and performance splendor. I love you so much Phil, you're the best always!! 😍💖💖💖 🙌 🇦🇷

The drama in this music is extremely high and Phil Collins vocal act one of the deepest, best performances ever.

Respect to a huge band and two huge artists. Phil Collins, Peter Gabriel thank you!!! Greetings from GREECE 🇬🇷

Mama, where are you now? - My mother was murdered 1988. I still miss her.

This is exactly what I like. Cold atmosphere 80s music.

Гениальная музыка, гениальный исполнитель!

GENESIS BAND!!! GENESIS FAMILY!!! FOREVER FOREVER FOREVER!!! 🎵🎶🎵🎶🎵🎶💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯

I think this is by far Phil Collins' best vocal performance in a Genesis song. Still gives me a thrill. And the video is awesome.

Phil Collins voice is perfect

One of my all time favorites..dark, intense and terrific

Anyone here in 2024?

Phil - The legend of drums

Haunting song... masterpiece in every aspect.

Именно с этой песней началось мое знакомство с творчеством Фила Коллинза. Спасибо Фил!Это великолепно!

This song haunts you !

Such a passionate display of art. The meaning is just so intense, so personal. It is incredible. Probably, one of the best songs ever made.

The powerful of Collins,the melodies of Banks,the taste of Rutherford. Mama

Phil Collins...the more he revealed how talented he was, the more flack he got. People are so strange. This is Genius.

this guy was , is and will always be a true legend !!!!!!

Orgulloso de haber tenido 15 años cuando salió está canción. Me encerraba en la pieza, ponia mi equipo (SONY) con el volumen a FULL y apagaba la luz. Y a volar se a dicho. 💯💯💯😎😎😎

Only legends who still watching this till this day

Phil's vocals are truly phenomenal on this, easily his best and darkest performance, love it

"If they ever tell my story, let them say I walked with giants. Men rise and fall like the winter wheat, but these names will never die. Let them say I lived in the time of Genesis. Let them say, I lived in the time of Phil Collins."

Fantastic vokal performance from Phil Collins!! I love this old number and have heard it a million times❤️🙏🙏🤘🤘

Phil Collins has the ability to bring his music to a drumming climax, no other musician has done, .....In the air tonight and Mama have drumming climaxes that electrify and excite you to another level, Wow !
