Phil Collins - In The Air Tonight Reaction | Phil Collins Reaction

Why the hell does no one today know that Phil Collins is a drummer? He is literally one of the greatest rock drummers ever.

My dear the why this song is so dramatic, so loved by the audience AND so iconic is because it was the first top 40 song used in either a tv show or movie. It was featured in the pilot episode of the 80s tv show Miami vice.

I was fortunate to see him on a reunion tour with Genesis. Front row. It was an incredible show.

OMG, Phil Collins is one of the greatest drummers. I have all of the Genesis record slbums. I feel so bad he is so sick. Bless you, Phil! You're still #1 in my books. ❤❤❤

When you gasped and said “I love that guitarist”: That’s the legendary Leland Sklar, top-tier LA studio and touring bassist for the past 54 years. Still touring and working on albums. And, btw, a top-tier human being and a very good friend of Phil Collins. And a dead ringer for Gandalf! 😏✌️

The bassist in this video is the most recorded bassist in history. He has played on thousands of records.

omg Phil is amazing its sad to see his health declining. The 80's the best

Phil used to be in the band Genesis many years ago. They had a heap of hits. This is the most iconic drum drop in music 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻

Phil is one of the best drummers of our lifetime.

Phil is epic. I don’t get out of the car when this song is on the radio. Too good to miss. ❤

🇨🇦 Phil has neen quoted as saying "I am a Drummer, that sings a little" ! 🇨🇦

One of the best selling solo artist of all times.

Phil was the drummer for Genesis, a progressive rock band. When their lead singer Peter Gabriel went solo they searched a long time for a replacement only to find they had a great one, Phil, already in the band. Phil also had a great sense of humour that he injected into his shows. I believe he was the only man who took the super sonic Concorde from the UK to the US to perform at the Live Aid charity concert in both cities on the same day. He started in the theatre as a kid as the Artful Dodger in the play "Oliver".

Pil Collins is an icon. He was 53 at this concert. He wrote this song about his divorce. Singing and playing drums is very difficult and he does it with ease. Love your reaction! ♥

Collins was in the band Genesis. This is from his debut solo album "Face Value" released on February 13, 1981. In 1979, Collins began to write songs during a break in activity from Genesis. This song was used in a superb way in the series pilot for the 80s show "Miami Vice," which was a great show about Miami undercover cops trying to deal with the Florida drug trade, where so much money is involved that the criminals can easily make a million dollar bribe to get what they want. Thanks for letting me know about this channel over on your movie channel.

Could this be the most fantastic live performance ever???????????

This song always makes me think of the show Miami Vice.

Phil is one of the three artists ever to sell 100 million records, both with a band and solo. His band was Genesis. The other two are Michael Jackson, who was in the Jackson 5. And, of course, Paul McCartney who sold 100 million solo and tons more with the Beatles.

How can you NOT know who Phil Collins is? I am astonished.

Don't piss off Phil. He'll drop a banger that will haunt you.
