It doesn't matter how many times I see this performance it will never get old!
Still get chills after the umpteenth view!!
I watch almost every reactors reaction to this video. 😊
Same here…
Rewatched our reaction after uploading and we can totally agree with this statement! 😂
Top 5 song anytime, anywhere, any genre.
people dont understand how difficult it is to smack the drums THAT hard and still sing without skipping a single breath ; like if you close your eyes you wouldnt think he is playing the drums AND singing that flawlesly at the same time, normally when Drummers sing and drum at the time time you can hear it in the singing ; the breath will be interupted cause of the drumming ; but with this performance you can't tell the difference, phil is a legend
And also to sing with that much power, too!
Why he was so rightly regarded as being a fantastic drummer, when the crowd prematurely start to cheer before he sits at the kit, brilliant live rendition.
The anticipation was wild!
The crowd didn’t “prematurely” start to cheer before he sat down at the drums. They saw the drums being slowly lifted up to the higher stage on a platform from the stage below as Phil Collins approached them and it got the crowd even more fired up because they knew what was getting ready to happen…the drum solo we all wait for. Excellent performance beginning to end!!! (You can see at the beginning of the song that the drums aren’t up there and then as he is almost there you can see the platform finish rising just as he reaches it.)
*drum fill, not solo
One of the greatest lefthanded drummer, writer ,sing and he funny in the movies
I’m now 72 and still love listening to all his music ❤️
Well done for not interrupting that drum solo.
I am 63 & I grew up listening to Phil Collins......This is my Favorite video !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Remember this. Phil Collins and Michael Jackson are the only two artists that sold more than 100M of copies playing alone and more than 100M copies with their bands. Phil is among the greatest musicians ever.
The other person who has sold over 100 million albums as a solo artist and as a member of a band is Sir Paul McCartney of the Beatles.
This performance is stellar. Saw him live and phenomenal performance.
Of course he made it in time. He was waiting for this moment all his life!
This performance never fails to give me goosebumps.
Big shout out to the guitarist on this song, his tone was perfection on this song!!
Daryl Stuermer is the guitarist.
Sounds like a Strat. Looks like a Strat. Maybe a little delay. A very little overdrive. Bottom two pickups. I'm just spitballing here but that's my best guess.
This song is a masterpiece. A master class in building suspense, anticipation through music dynamics. Chills, goosebumps. No wonder it's in so many soundtracks.
The passion comes through because it’s an autobiographical song for a painful time of his life
Anyone who used to watch Miami Vice -- this song epitomized the show's feel.
The guy with the beard at the beginning who looks like Gandalf: the superlative bassist Leland Sklar. Lee has said that doing this song live always gave him goosebumps…..
Phil Collins... we must take a moment and appreciate the genius of this performer...
I so envy you two experiencing these musical gems for the first time. At 59 I still get goosebumps hearing these tunes again 😊
Up the stairs, wait for it!
*"Well, if you told me you were drowning, I would not lend a hand.."* One of the most brutal opening verses in music. For 25 years with the legendary Genesis and a successful solo career, Phil Collins is one the GOATs in music history. Hard to believe this ITAT performance is 19 years old.
In relation to a wife?
@@margaretflounders8510yes, he wrote this about his divorce from his first wife Andrea
that and "I was there and I saw what you did, I saw it with my own 2 eyes" let's you know how much pain he was in when he wrote this
Phil Collins kicked so much ass in the mid-80’s ..he guest stared on Miami Vice like 3-4 times That’s baller!
They used to use this song on the original MIAMI VICE television show.
The whole performance from start to finish is absolutely fantastic. The build up, the atmosphere, the energy towards the end, his vocals, the stage presence, amazing.
💯
you know, back in the 80s i didnt think much of phil collins, its only now many decades later that i can truly appreciate this masterclass.
One of the greatest songs in human kind existance
He perfectly stuck the landing!
I saw Phil Collins in Concert 30 yrs ago. He was awesome. This song was played for the show MIAMI VICE. He never came back to my city. So happy we had free tickets to the show ❤😊😊
every step he took up and down the stage to get to the drums was rehearsed, and timed to the beat. thats showman ship.
Phil Collins oh my goodness he absolutely crushed that crushed it I remember when this came out I was working as a bartender and I heard this song so many freaking times I could recite it without it ever being on it was continuously played on the jukebox in both bars that I was working in and absolutely loved it still do always will thanks for the reaction I thoroughly enjoyed it 🫶❣✌
I had to go and watch the Miami Vice scene with this song. Iconic.
Phil says he's been playing drums since he was five and in his seventies now 🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁
Ive been waiting,, for those smiles to show, on the first drumbeat!!!!!
He was drummer for his band Genesis. He is one of the best....ever
The song is pure rage. The music lacerates. It is a primal scream.
This whole show was GREAT!!
The great Leland Sklar on Bass!!!
Phil Collins Is a Musical Legend - Truly Amazing Performance Of This Classic Song.
Ive watched no less than 50 reaction videos to this performance and every single time Phil does his drum solo, the people reacting just stop and smile. It can't be helped! He is a genius musician and some people don't realize that he was the lead drummer for Genesis for some time before taking over lead vocals. One of the best drummers to have ever performed!
not even close to the greatest rock drummers, google it
Two words for this song. Miami Vice…
Phill Collins is one of my favorite artists and this and another day in paradise are my favorite songs by him! 💖
Masterpiece from Phil.🔥
The greatest left-handed drum intro in Rock.
if u google greatest left handed rock drummers, phil colins is not even mentioned. its ur opinion and i respect it
Thus song is extremely personal to Phil.
Listen carefully to the lyrics.
I recommend "Rush" the Limelight . Official video.
3 unmatched incredible musicians. A MIND BLOWING experience. You kids will love it. Enjoy the ride.
I was a kid when Genesis was massive in the 80s, but I didn’t appreciate it until much later how incredible of a songwriter and performer he was. Absolutely one of the all-time greats
And that's how a real rock star opens a show.
It blows my mind that people don’t know this song. lol. Phil Collins was my very first concert ever. I saw him perform in 1985 at a venue called, “Poplar Creek” near Chicago. I was 16. It was phenomenal. He performed this same song walking to the drums and killed it then too. ❤
Phil Collins is best known as the drummer/singer of the rock band Genesis in the 70's & for his solo career. He has had so many great hits such as "Another Day In Paradise", "I Don't Care Anymore", "Against All Odds", "One More Night", "Sussudio", "Take Me Home", "Two Hearts", "A Groovy Kind Of Love", "I Wish It Would Rain Down", "You Can't Hurry Love" etc.
He's also known as one of the 3 artists that have made more than 100mil both as a band member and a solo artists, the others being Paul McCartney and MJ
@@House_of_CaineAnd of course Paul McCartney.
also I like land of confusion
Heard the name Genesis before but had no idea Phil Collins was in it!
On a side note He was a collector The Alamo memorabilia. He recently donated his collection to San Antonio and the Alamo.
Fun Fact, My cousin has spent a long time touring with Phil Collins amongst others around the World & owns one of Phil Collins’s Drum Kits! 🙂🇬🇧
Is everyone forgetting that the great Don Henley for the eagles has been drumming and singing for decades, you know that Rock and roll Hall of Fame guy
Ya really lately he's being blowing up for lip sync accusations
Firstly he was the drummer with Genesis and when Peter Gabriel left he stepped up as vocalist!
Phil is truly one of the GOAT's...from his wiki...
"Collins's discography includes eight studio albums that have sold 33.5 million certified units in the US and an estimated 150 million records sold worldwide, making him one of the world's best-selling artists.[10] He is one of only three recording artists, along with Paul McCartney and Michael Jackson, who have sold over 100 million records both as solo artists and separately as principal members of a band.[11][12] He has won eight Grammy Awards, six Brit Awards (winning Best British Male Artist three times), two Golden Globe Awards, one Academy Award, and a Disney Legend Award.[13] He was awarded six Ivor Novello Awards from the British Academy of Songwriters, Composers and Authors, including the International Achievement Award. He received a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame in 1999, and was inducted into the Songwriters Hall of Fame in 2003 and the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame as a member of Genesis in 2010. He has also been recognised by music publications with induction into the Modern Drummer Hall of Fame in 2012, and the Classic Drummer Hall of Fame in 2013."
Its called MUSIC, kids!
Playing drums and singing while maintaining breath control is notable. Phil Collins is known for this.
And that is what you call an EPIC PERFORMANCE.
Definitely a banger
When you *know* what someone did. Righteousness 💯
Im crying here. In just fills me with so much emotion. I absolutely love this guy FOREVER. I just so wish i was there.
Loved you reaction peeps. ❤
Phil is a living legend !
👍👍👍🇸🇪😎💕
Love the anticipation/buildup with audience hand clap participation 💜
You will never FORGET THIS ONE! So many great songs to choose from…this is absolutely his most phenomenal performance 🎶❤️ Love the music from Genesis.
TOP TIER!
Sam & Phil,
Phil is one of those special artists that is a legend in their lifetime. I have watched this dozens of times. Phil appears to be just wandering about the set, YET he arrives at the drum kit just at the correct time. His timing is perfect!!!! Many forget that Phil is a drummer.!! Sam, you may not be old enough to remember Miami Vice, but this song was in one of their big scenes.. ENJOY it, it is classic!!!!!.......... Notice the audience's response as he gets to the drums... EPIC........... Was that great or what????
One of the very best drummers in music history. So sad he's no longer able to do it.
This is the most epic version.
Phil Collins is a legend. He's from a time when musicians were artists. A performance of a lifetime ❤
Mr. Collins is an icon in vocal and drum talent. Good choice!
Thanks for not pausing during the most epic drum solo ever! Goose bumps!
The lyrics are so important, they explain the whole story,
One of the best performances I have ever seen, I have watched it so so often
Guitar is killer!
This number always tak me right back to the Miami Vice time. Brilliant ♥️
Timeless
One of the greatest performances
I never get tired of watching Phil Collins in concert. He is absolutely incredible!!!!
Phil is a legend. Period. ❤
Brilliant performance by all!
He is a fantastic drummer and a great singer.
Phil Collins was HUGE in the 80s. So many good songs to choose from, whether it was from Genesis or his solo stuff. Songs like "Land of Confusion", "Sussudio", "Don't Loose My Number", "Two Hearts", "Easy Lover", "Against All Odds", "I Missed Again", "Don't Care Anymore", & his cover of "You Can't Hurry Love" and so many others. Legendary artist.
Land of Confusion was a Genesis song, written by Mike Rutherford.
One of only 3 people to sell over 100million albums as a solo artist and with a band. The 2 others are McCartney and Jackson.
I was blessed to have seen him twice on the Mama tour. He was a phenomenal front man and one of the greatest progressive drummers to ever play.
10:40 mark..."Damn"...sums up the entire song :) Great reaction !
Everything about this performance is fantastic. From the atmospheric buildup at the beginning (including Gandalf the Bass), the arrangement with more prominent guitar part in this version, to the iconic drum drop. Perfection.
The real name of "Gandalf" is Mr. Leland Sklar, a world renowned musician and bass player who has collaborated with a large number of international artists. His discography is just amazing (see wikipedia) He participated in the creation of more than 2500 albums !!!!!!!!!!!
He also participated in the creation of soundtracks for films and TV shows. A legend this artist.
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leland_Sklar (wikipedia)
@@JBletizef thank you for the information. Calling him Gandalf was meant affectionately not to disrespect his achievements/talent. Will read up on him 😀
I always wondered how much food got lodged in that raggedy thing......He probably has spaghetti noodles tucked deep in there from 20 years ago. 😳
@@LordRahl1975 he has his own YT channel where he shares all his great bass riffs from the thousands of records he was on and his memories! 😊
If you are 50+, there is no way you can listen to this, and not think of Miami Vice! Seasons 1 & 2 of the original series are worth a watch at any age!
My favourite artist ❤️❤️❤️just adore his work
There are so many songs that takes me back to my preteen-teen years but this one has been on the soundtrack for 90% of my life.
Don't care what anyone says. He WAS literally the best drummer in the entire world. The man went deaf due to how close he was to music and drums. Total legend!!!
I still remember first time I saw Phil Collins was in 1982 on a TV musical show called "Solid Gold". He sang his first ever hit "Can't hurry love". I was 13 yrs old 😉
That wasn't his first solo hit. THIS song. IN THE AIR TONIGHT, was his first hit.
@@kbrewski1 "can't hurry love" was his first top 10 single in the U.S.
@@kbrewski1 "against all odds" was his first #1 hit
Face Value was released in 1981. "The album's lead single, "In the Air Tonight", reached number one in Austria, Germany, Ireland, New Zealand, Sweden, and Switzerland, and is often cited as his signature song." It was #2 in UK, Canada. It was #19 in the US, which is still a "top 40" hit.
You Can't Hurry Love was a cover of The Supremes song, so not a Phil Collins written original song like In the Air Tonight. That song was released in 1982. It hit #1 in fewer countries than ITAT, and overall didn't do as well worldwide as ITAT. It did slightly better in the US since it was a recognizable Motown tune.
None of that is neither here nor there. They were both big hits, and In the Air Tonight came out a year before his Supremes cover. Thus, by logic, In the Air Tonight was his first hit. And it still stands today as the song people first think of when Phil Collins is mentioned.
Phil wrote this during marriage issues so is why the intensity. The original is on a solo album (after he left Genesis) 'Face Value' album & has some other really good tracks. It's always been one of my fav songs.
IT DOESN'T GET ANY BETTER THAN THIS!!🎵🥁🎙
Phil is a legend, and has so many bangers. Both in his solo career, and with Genesis.
A few of my favorites are; "I don't care anymore". (He wrote this after a very bitter divorce).
"Mama". Which is dark and kinda eery. "Land of Confusion". This video is very whimsical but, the lyrics are powerful and poignant. Even all this time later, they still are relevant.
Have a great day guys.
*oh, ps; I also agree with Phil's opening statement on Samantha's introduction. 😉
Mama is fantastic. And No son of mine.
One of my favorite Genesis songs is "Home by the Sea".
When this song was first released in 1981, it barely cracked the top twenty of the Billboard Pop Chart. Then the television show “Miami Vice” used this song and made it much more popular. Phil Collins has a catalog of hits from “You Can’t Hurry Love” to “Something Happened On The Way To Heaven “
Interesting, I didn’t know when this was. Just posted a comment re: Miami Vice. Bought the CDcollection about 5yrs ago. It was like Christmas 🎅 😂
I first heard this song on Risky Business when that movie came out in theaters.
I got to see this concert in Oklahoma City Oklahoma in 2004 three months after I got home from being deployed to Afghanistan. It was a bucket list item I loved getting to see. This is hands down the most recognizable drum drop EVER.
A superb concert made special by very talented musicians and backing singers 😊
Fabulous performance.
i'll never forget it. here in germany, 1986, 9:45 p.m., miami vice. a series like a comic, colorful, miami, cool guys, combined with music shot like a music video, never seen like this before. and then this drum kit pops in during a scene. i'm 56 years old now and remember it like it was yesterday.
51, Netherlands, same here.
I love the way he strolls off at the end. This is what I do, you’ve either got it or you ain’t. Amazing performance
As soon as the drums hits that’s it erupting everywhere goosebumps all over
Saw him perform this live---the place went up for grabs when he did it. He was a terrific performer and a true musical genius.
I grew up listening to the music of Genesis and Phil Colin's. I remember when this song came out I was cruising down the highway with the top down stero blasting at night. I highly recommend it. It's a cruising song. Phil is one of those musical genius I had the pleasure of experiencing in my lifetime. When I saw an MTV video of Phil while playing drums with Genesis singing Turn Me On Again, you just knew the guy was special. What a privilege.
Another song I can´t watch without getting tears in my eyes... 😍 Great reaction, guys!! Thank you!
Thank you too!
Besides being one of the best drummers (Genesis) and male vocalists, Phil Collins is an actor. Seriously. He starred in a Miami Vice episode called 'Phil the Shill' (TV) and then in two full length movies "Buster" and "Frauds." He is really good, but then he went to drama school before playing in rock bands. More Phil songs and some Genesis too.
Awesome song, thanks for reacting to this one...
Darealdeal
All I can say is what a f n BUILD!!!!!
Alot of people r amazed that phil is also playing the drums and singing, may i remind everyone that 2 of the greats have done it for decades and r in the R&R hall of fame...Don Henly of the Eagles & Ringo Star of the famous Beatles
This live is unreal!!!! saw him 1983 in Milwaukie
Love it love it love it
