    Lyrics:
    Easy lover
    She'll get a hold on you believe it
    Like no other
    Before you know it you'll be on your knees
    She's an easy lover
    She'll take your heart but you won't feel it
    She's like no other
    And I'm just trying to make you see
    She's the kind of girl you dream of
    Dream of keeping hold of
    You'd better forget it
    You'll never get it
    She will play around and leave you
    Leave you and deceive you
    Better forget it
    Oh you'll regret it

      @@theblackpearlofbraavos Wow really. I come from the other side: I've been a Phil Collins fan since I was 11 years old, so this wonderful piece of music reached my radar very soon after. Sometime later, I learned to know Philip Bailey's album Chinese Wall and I thought it was a wonderful American/British collaboration. When I learned to love 1970s and 1980s soul/funk/R&B in my late teen years, EW&F came automatically across my ears and since the recent years I've thought All 'N All is my favorite EW&F album.

      I read that Phil Collins was going to produce this song sung by Philip Bailey but that when it came time to record the song Phil Collins had one idea on how the song should sound while Philip Bailey on the other hand had another completely different idea on how the song should sound. So Phil Collins said screw it and let's just do this song together. And that's how we ended up with this great duet.

      He's one of the greatest drummers of the last 50+ years. At one point, he was the lead singer and drummer of Genesis, he was also the drummer of the jazz fusion prog band Brand X, and he was working on his first solo album in which he played ALL the instruments, all at the same time. He invented the gated reverb drum sound on Peter Gabriel's Melt album on the song Intruder, which he then also used on his own mega hit In the Air Tonight, Genesis' Mama etc.
      In the 80s He PRODUCED and played drums in between Genesis and his solo albums and tours for Eric Clapton, the Abba singer Frida, Robert Plant, this one for Philip Bailey of course, and many other artists. He played in the Secret Policeman's Ball concerts, the Princes Trusts Concerts, at Live Aid in 85 where he played in England and the US on the same day, playing drums and singing with multiple artists (Sting, Led Zep, his solo sets). He played in multiple Knebworths.
      He was the most dominant, busy and successful artist of the 80s for sure, he was all over the place, movie soundtracks (Against All Odds), later the Disney films. Truly a nonstop workaholic.

      Allah did not forbid music. This is a complete fabrication. There is no such ruling in the Holy Qur'an. Music is a wonderful gift from Allah to people. Those who want to discredit Islam fabricate such lies in the name of the Prophet Muhammad.
      Аллах не запрещал музыку. Это полная выдумка. В Священном Коране такого постановления нет. Музыка - прекрасный дар от Аллах. Те, кто хочет дискредитировать ислам, используют имя Пророка Мухаммеда, чтобы сфабриковать такую ложь.
      Allah no prohibió la música. Esta es una fabricación completa. No existe tal regla en el Sagrado Corán. La música es un regalo maravilloso de Allah para las personas. Aquellos que quieren desacreditar al Islam inventan tales mentiras en nombre del Profeta Muhammad.
      لم يمنع الله الموسيقى. هذا تلفيق كامل. لا يوجد مثل هذا الحكم في القرآن الكريم. الموسيقى هدية رائعة من الله للناس. أولئك الذين يريدون تشويه سمعة الإسلام يختلقون مثل هذه الأكاذيب باسم النبي محمد.
      Allah müziği yasaklamamıştır. Bu tamamen uydurmadır. Kutsal Kitabımız Kuranı-Kerim'de Allah'ın böyle bir emri yoktur. Müzik Yüce Allah'ın insanlara lütfettiği güzel bir nimettir. İslam'ı bilerekten gözden düşürmek isteyenler hz.Muhammed Peygamberin adını kullanarak böyle yalanlar uyduruyorlar.

Concert prices were like going to a movie matinee. We could literally go to dozens of concerts per year, forget about everything for a night. Now concerts are like a down payment on a new car.

    11:40 I absolutely love how they have the track playing but also you can hear the live parts from the video. At one point shortly after this, I swear you can actually hear live instruments layered over the audio track while they're on stage. This video is almost 4th wall breaking, it's amazing!!

      Allah did not forbid music. This is a complete fabrication. There is no such ruling in the Holy Qur'an. Music is a wonderful gift from Allah to people. Those who want to discredit Islam fabricate such lies in the name of the Prophet Muhammad.
      Аллах не запрещал музыку. Это полная выдумка. В Священном Коране такого постановления нет. Музыка - прекрасный дар от Аллах. Те, кто хочет дискредитировать ислам, используют имя Пророка Мухаммеда, чтобы сфабриковать такую ложь.
      Allah no prohibió la música. Esta es una fabricación completa. No existe tal regla en el Sagrado Corán. La música es un regalo maravilloso de Allah para las personas. Aquellos que quieren desacreditar al Islam inventan tales mentiras en nombre del Profeta Muhammad.
      لم يمنع الله الموسيقى. هذا تلفيق كامل. لا يوجد مثل هذا الحكم في القرآن الكريم. الموسيقى هدية رائعة من الله للناس. أولئك الذين يريدون تشويه سمعة الإسلام يختلقون مثل هذه الأكاذيب باسم النبي محمد.
      Allah müziği yasaklamamıştır. Bu tamamen uydurmadır. Kutsal Kitabımız Kuranı-Kerim'de Allah'ın böyle bir emri yoktur. Müzik Yüce Allah'ın insanlara lütfettiği güzel bir nimettir. İslam'ı bilerekten gözden düşürmek isteyenler hz.Muhammed Peygamberin adını kullanarak böyle yalanlar uyduruyorlar.
      上帝并没有禁止音乐。 这是完全的捏造。 《古兰经》中没有这样的规定。 音乐是上帝赐予的美好礼物。 那些想诋毁伊斯兰教的人以先知穆罕默德的名义编造这样的谎言。

    This is one of the very best songs of the 1980s. I have listened to it thousands of times, and play it on my bass several times a week. The bass line is great, but what really makes the song are the explosive drums and incredible vocals by the two Phils.

    I remembered this song last night and how things would have been between me and the man who called me his "Easy Lover" so long ago, and my heart ached! It ached for the love that we could have shared, the kids that we could have had, the life that we could have built. I looked for him on Facebook and found him. When I saw the girl he married I was not surprised. He married someone who resembles me, and I can bet that he thought about me more than once while being with her because we are the same ethnicity (Hispanic), the same coloring, similar features, etc., but I KNOW that he didn't find in her what he found in me. I know it because there is only one of me. He was very special to me too, but our timing was off. That said, I am happy that we had the time that we had, that he told me how he felt and that in my heart and in his, I will forever be his easy lover. . . 💋💋💋❣❣❣
