Understanding the backstory of the song makes it even more powerful and emotional. He wrote this while angry and confused about a divorce. Watch it again and realize he's angry as he walks slowly for 5 minutes to the drums. Then when he finally gets there, he unleashes his rage and passion on the drums. Powerful.

Phil was a drummer first, vocalist second. For years, he did backing vocals in Genesis while Peter Gabriel sang lead. After Gabriel left and Phil discovered he couldn't sing the entire show behind his drum kit, they hired other drummers for touring, but he always still did some drums. (Until age changed that, as noted before).

Phil Collins was originally the drummer for Genesis. Whe the lead singer Peter Gabriel left the group to pursue a solo career, they held auditions for lead singer. After several months of failing to find anyone the found satisfactory, Collins said I can do better than those people. He stepped up and became their lead singer. As I understand it he was never overly comfortable singing as he preferred, at least initially, being in the background

It was a very dramatic piece indeed, derived from the events that led to a divorce. I think in order to deliver the song with what he feels is the proper intensity, he has to revisit those painful memories. The entire song is a confrontation. What's being felt in the air is the rising tension leading up to that confrontation.

He was 53 years old when he did this concert in Bercy, Paris in 2004. Truly an amazing performance by Brad Cole (keyboards, synthesizers, Vocoder), Daryl Stuermer (6 String Guitar), Leland Sklar (Bass Guitar), Chester Thompson ("Rhythm" Drums) and Phil himself (vocals, drums). It was performed in front of 20,000 + people at the "Palais Omnisport de Paris" and truly was, if not the greatest, close to the greatest live performance ever. It was from his "Finally... The First Farewell" Tour and this particular concert in Bercy started with an amazing "Drums, Drums & More Drums" track performed by Phil and his other drummer, the previously mentioned Mr. Thompson. Incidentally, this track ("In the Air Tonight") was the 17th in the tracklist sandwiched between Separate Lives and Dance Into the Light. Phil had the energy he had in this song all the way through to the end of the concert (as did his musicians). Now that he can no longer drum, his son NIcholas plays drums almost as well as the old man did--literally--Phil is 70 now. His son is on the Domino tour with Genesis currently. Oh and of course, his daughter Lily is rapidly becoming a famous actress in her own right. So, he's still doing alright I suppose (tongue in cheek).

The song is a masterpiece. It is very real and most don't know what it means. There is a reason for his passion and the detail and art. There is an emotional vibe and with good reason, if you know what the song means, you will truly get it. I encourage you to look it up.

"In the Air Tonight" remains one of Collins' best-known hits, often cited as his signature song, and is especially famous for its drum break towards the end, which has been described as "the sleekest, most melodramatic drum break in history" and one of the "101 Greatest Drumming Moments

Phil Collins was the drummer for the group Genesis. Peter Gabriel was the lead singer and he went solo. Nobody knew that Phil could write or sing the way that he did. He is credited with being one of the best (top five) drummers in the history of American music!

@johnmilner5485 Жыл бұрын

No he's not. Universal top 5. Peart , Portnoy , Bonham , G Baker , B Rich. Phil is ok , if anything overrated . He isn't considered in anyone who is actually a drummer to even be top 100 .

@meanpomeranians Жыл бұрын

@@johnmilner5485 If anything Phil is underrated. He's so known for his singing, very few people realize what an exceptional drummer he is. Not only the amazing parts he did with 70s Genesis, but his work with Band X, the first solo Hackett album, and his work with countless lesser known projects. I'm a drummer and he's been a massive influence on me. Completely underrated.

One of the most prolific drummers in the history of rock. From the progressive rock of Genesis, to the jazz rock of Brand X, to the pop music where he came to prominence, Phil Collins is one of the greatest drum icons. His performance on the 1975 Genesis double album "The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway" is simply breathtaking from start to finish on this underrated masterpiece. Knowing that he is now physically impaired due to failed surgeries is a real heartbreaker.

These two are the most likable reaction couple I've watched. Play off each other well and don't get overdramatic. Nice work. Oh yeah, Phil Collins is a legend, listen to some old Genesis stuff, both when he was just the drummer and when he was the front man after Gabriel left. Unique and very good.

He was a drummer 1st,/ backup singer As for not drumming, Collins said, "I'd love to but you know, I mean, I can barely hold a stick with this hand. So there are certain physical things that get in the way." He had back surgery that left him with the inability to drum anymore and uses a cane to assist him in walking. His son will be playing the drums in the Genesis reunion tour this year. Watch some Genesis videos to see him play more drums

It's not just the UK! In high school in the mid-80s in California, I was in Marching Band and we did a lot of trips to parades and other events, usually in school buses. I would play this on my boom box, and you would have 60 kids - guys and girls alike - air-drumming that big fill every single time. Even today, this can happen if you play the song at a party - at least half of the guests are air drumming along and singing with Phil...

The “gated reverb” sound, which became the drum sound of the 80’s, was found by accident while Phil was Playing on Peter Gabriel’s third album on the track “No self Control”. The producer Hugh Padgeham, put the sound of Phil drumming through the sound desk monitor and through a filter and got this amazing sound. Gabriel had put a rule on the drummers that worked on that album, including Phil, “No cymbals, just drums”. Have a listen to the track “No self control”. The drum break is even more impressive than this one.
