Phil Collns is "Going Back."

Post by milojthatch »

Any Phil Collins fans here? I'm a HUGE fan and am really excited about his new album, out today. Here is a sample of the awesomeness on it:

Since his recent illness and surgery, I am glad to see that he is back at 'em. Phil Collins is among my favorite singers, and even though he can't play the drums anymore (because of the illness numbing his nerve endings in his hand) at least his still has his God-given voice to grace the airwaves.

Thanks for posting the video.

If you notice, Phil has the drumsticks taped to his hands, because he cannot feel them because of his medical problem. Doesn't mean he can't play drums, but don't expect to see him behind the traps when he goes on tour to support the album. Thanks for the YouTube update, it was quite informative.

Even at his worst, Phil Collins is a better drummer than a lot of them out there. I am such a fan of Phil Collins and hope he gets close to us on this tour.

I did see that he had to use tape to hold the stick in his hand. But still, keeping in mind what happened, I think it's awesome! I don't know if he will go on tour much more (although it would be awesome!) but at the very least I hope more albums are in the future.

But, if he does call it quits after this album, it was a good run.
