Polo says "this is the best song without drums I've ever heard." All of us say "just wait". :)
Yeah that was GOLD that he said that :))
I couldn't help but laugh out loud when he said that!!!
Oh yeah!
Indeed!
I hear THAT!! I just about fell out! 😂🤣
40 years later and still the most intense drum drop ever
Amen!
Goosebumps! Everytime!!!
Father Time on the bass
@@GuitarDreamerwhen he was younger,he looked like Jesus.
And we all do air drums when that happens!!!!!
Sometimes I feel sorry for this generation, that they will never know artists like this. All the studio trickery today, true talent seems to be evading these new generations. Now you are seeing why we say, we had the best music!!!!
Agree. I’m 69 and I think I’ve been blessed
Agree- sadly the reason we had real lives and emotions instead of emoji and tik-tok
The generation?....... most people in that generation were programmed..... they just didn't understand the program..... what band was Collins in?..... Genesis...... hmmmm.... why did they pick that name..... Collins is a freemason... like most well know singers in bands like that.... the police, Queen.... get the gist?.... what's the lyrics telling you?..... look to other band lyrics..... Queen one Vision.... John Lennon Imagine.... the police... every breath you take.... what is it telling you..... freemasons are Luciferians.... new world order..... communist..... in your face.... and the lyrics are in all those songs, bands and singers.... "the pack of lies"..... religion....
One of the few good musicians of the 80s. Most 80s music is trash
I know. I so.know. I'm 70. And this is the 3rd videos I've watched of younger Ones Hearing Him for for first time. They're reaction is funny. I.miss Our music soooo much. So.much. ❤❤❤
Phil Collins is also generally recognized as one of the best drummers ever.
Gotta rate Karen Carpenter in there, too! Karen always said she was a drummer who can sing!
Phil Collins is not a singer who plays drums, he is a kick ass drummer who can sing
and kicks ass when he sings too!
So sad he isn't ever going to play them again. His health won't let him
@@ktriplet1967 I know, that's so sad. Some sort of nerve issue
@@aleatharhea nerve and back surgery that didn't work.
True that
Who else gets excited when Polo is blown away by one of the very best songs we grew up with😁😁😁😁
Everytime 🥰
Like watching a child open up a new fabulous toy.
For me it's like watching someone truly recognize which "Machine" was being "Raged Against" for the first time! 😊❤
Phil Collins was the 2nd lead singer & Drummer of the band Genesis after they fired Peter Gabriel. Both of them, wrote songs about that day on their 1st Solo albums, THIS was Phil’s. AMAZING !!! ❤ Glad u “FELT” it
Word to your mother! 😂
Nobody ever talks about the lyrics. One big reason this song is so powerful is the lyrics. Musical genius, yes, and a fantastic writer.
Something draws you in and never lets go
Completely agree
It's about his wife cheating on him!
This song killed his ambitions of becoming a lifeguard 😫
If you believe it will happen
From a 56 year old english white male I give you respect brother. It's beautiful watching your response to something old but new to you. Enjoy the journey
58 and same!!
57 the same😊

Anyone else have a laughing fit at “best song without drums I’ve ever heard”? Love it!!
Definitely. I was, just wait, you're gonna love it. And laughed out loud.
Yes absolutely
There are drums he plays all instruments
Saw this man 3 times.
😂😂
“Yo, has my man been walkin to the drums the whole time?!”
Such joy to experience this through a young person’s eyes.
What's even better regarding this video.... everyone in the audience is *"There, in the moment, singing along and clapping"* I believe hardly ANYONE was holding up a damn cellphone📱
Yes we we're blessed to be around when musician's really played and sang with no auto tune!!! We only have a few musicians these day's that still do it's sad....it's just my opinion from a senior but I love Billie Eilish, Primus and Michael McDonald so I listen to a wide variety of music so kids now should take note and we need to teach them before AI takes over and we lose music altogether....sorry for the lengthy note but I think you get it😊
I want to suggest Quincy Jones “Dude” album and “Back on The Block”❤
@@hollysmith9979 Musicians still play and sing with no Autotune. You just couldn't help but be a sniveling boomer piss-ant over your own narrow horizons and generalization.
And AI doesn't exist.
yes
I am a sixtys baby, so I was weined on good music, I almost feel sorry for the younger generation, who will never have the musical experience I had.
For those of us that have followed Phil for a long time,me personally over 50 years,know the power of all of his songs.If he started again today,without doubt he would be,the best singer songwriter ever.
I was privileged to see him in concert.
Phil's last concert was in March of 2022.
His spine is deteriorating due to an injury, plus he has other issues such as, debilitating pancreatitis and diabetes.
Phil won't be performing again, most likely.
During his last performance, his son, Nic, had to play the drums.
Phil Collins will always be one of the best drummers and pianist this world has ever seen.
Prayers and positive energy to you, Phil.
Thanks, too, for your magnificent music. That will live forever.
❤😊❤
I was there, O2 London with Genesis fantastic event. bought tears to my eyes
@kevindower5987
Fantastic. I've been too many concerts. But, 2 people I wish I'd been able to get to.
Elvis was one. I had tickets, still have them to a concert here in NY but sadly Elvis never made it there because he passed away.
The second would've been to see Phil Collins. Just didn't get to any of them.
Hey, Polo Reacts: Styx always has mixed reviews! I’ve always liked Come Sail Away! You wanna hear an Old Guitar Player? Go wayback to my childhood. Check out Chet Atkins, Singer Tennessee Erny (sp?) Ford! The 1st song I ever memorized is “Like A Bridge Over Troubled Water”!
Oops 😬 this should be on main comment list.
Prayers out to Phil Collins. He is not doing well. He is, and will always be, a true legend.
I had the opportunity to see him in concert a couple years ago. Sad to see him in a wheelchair but glad to see he still brought the house down!
"This is the best song I've ever heard without drums."
Well then STRAP IN SON!. !
heeheeheeheehee
Best Solo Drums SON
Perfect comment!
when I said that I was thinking, "just wait".
I was hype to see his reaction 🤣
"This is the best song without drums I've ever heard" .... hang on King.
I was gonna say the same thing! 😂
Gotta be a fan now, right?!!
Phil Collins is one of the best drummers ever. I've loved his music forever. I'm a blessed GenX 'er!
We had ALL the good music!
I beg to differ w you; it’s the boomers with ALL the great music!
@@judywright8455, I think there was great music in both generations. Now today's generation is a different story all together.
*No* Gimmicks, *No* special effects, *No* fancy clothes, *No* overdone aesthetics, *No* half naked women or men, yet is the most talented, & coolest dude, that ever walked this planet, IMO!!! 😎😎😎
well, there were a lot of special effects. But Phil kicks ass regardless.
@@ThatDudeGuruthere were hslf naked ppl on done vids i think too
Some of the backing vocals have autotune, but it's done for effect, and not for reasons people usually use autotune. In this case it serves to make things better
Yea Phil is great, but as far as the most talented?....I beg to differ.
Sandy you a little off there…
Love this man. He beats those drums like they owe him money
YES HE DOES!!😂😂😂😂 Have you seen the Cadbury chocolate d with the Gorilla playing this drum solo??😂😂 It's fkn classic!!
They do.
🤣🤣🤣🤣funny and true
Lol
😂
You noticed the crowd’s excitement, right before the drum came in. They knew!
They could see the drum set rising which you don’t get on the video and, of, course, they knew what was coming.
Genesis was a great band and Phil Collins is a UK national treasure.
Phil Collins was 30 when he released In the Air Tonight & is on the doorstep to turning 73 today. He's an amazing singer/song writer!
I thought this was a break up song & the best bit of drumming singing I know
Sadly, his health is in decline. I loved Genesis and Phil as a solo. So glad I got to see them live.
And he did a song with bones thugs and harmony
His son plays a drum like him now he taught him how to play drums like him
Phil Collins could play any instrument, drums, piano, guitar etc etc, a truly gifted man + that voice! WOW 🔥
I grew up listening to this. Classic Tune!!
I born in '71
I am 64. I was 20 when I walked into a 7 eleven store. This song had just started on the radio inside the store. I stopped dead in my tracks and listened to the whole song. Captivated and stunned by what I just heard. The song was released on the radio the same day I heard it. Still to this day it brings chills when I hear it. NUFF SAID
our generation had the best music on the planet 70s
Agreed! Bought it in Jan 1981. & This song is the perfect definition of 'Timeless Classic'. To say I've heard "In The Air Tonight" over 1,000 times in the last 40 years is a gross understatement. & This damn video still gives me goosebumps, every time I watch it.
It-Never-Ends! & That my friends, is the very definition of ... Timeless.
I was in high school playing football, it got me so pumped up. Guess that's why I played in college.
What an AMAZING memory!
Love this story!
Me thinks Polo didn't know Mr. Collins is a renowned drummer.
I have to say, I know it's a year late, but the sound production engineer that recorded this deserves a life time achievement award for this video.
The whole video was beautifully done. Setting the scene and adding to the anticipation. Fabulous work!
Agree completely
Polo, I am a 70 year old gramma and even I went nuts when u said, “this is the best song without drums.” I could hear everyone saying, “WAIT FOR IT!!!” I also had goosebumps. Phil Collins is an awesome drummer.
And I am a 78 year old Grandma and I loved his music and the BeeGees plus a bunch of others too. Disco music was fabulious.
He is Phil… He is LEGEND ! 😁
Hello Denise.
When he said that I thought. Ohh really! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I grew up with Phill Collins, Bee Gees, Neal Diamond, etc cause of grandmother's like you. ♡ huge thank you!!
Right there with you sister!
80’s music was the best. They weren’t entertainers, they were musicians that played every instrument and rocked us out with their amazing talent.
70s music was also epic.
You bet it was.@@nancyenright9562
Go back 20 years to where it all started
The nostalgia is epic. So glad to have lived it.
British performers:- Queen, Blondie, Eurythmics/Annie Lennox, Ultravox, OMD, Kate Bush, Police, Ian Drury & the Blockheads, Bryan Ferry….
Can you imagine how difficult it would be to keep those tones singing while beating the heck out of the drums? Just amazing !!!
He became singer when their lead singer quit. So what? He was the drummer who just stepped into 😂lead singers role and, ? The rest is history.
" The anticipation is killing me" "This better be good" just brought a big smile to my face.
Imagine a summer night, rolling down the road with your high school friends. Windows open, warm breeze blowing through your hair. The smell of fresh cut grass, and summer sounds. Slipping into the night, just relaxed and chilling. Then this song comes on the radio.
Yeah. That was how it was when this song came out. Life was just too cool.
THIS!...in my 72 Camero with a Realistic equalizer paired with a Pioneer deck and speakers...on a back country road in Alabama with my best girl (soon to be my wife and mother of 3 boys)....cruisin'!...how lucky are we to have that. :)
@@djonpow I grew up in Fort Worth. Drove a '72 Olds Cutlass. My friends in their Cameros, Chevelles, Impalas and Mustangs. Not to mention trucks - so many trucks. lol
I'm in Alabama now. This song is perfect in either!
🤣👍🏻
I remember that night! Ocean breeze instead of grass but yup, I was there :)
I'm 57 and I still get goosebumps listening to this track.
Phil Collins class act
I was at that concert in Pittsburgh. Great performance, but it took a toll on him. He sang the last couple songs, sitting. His son came out and helped him with the vocals. It was sad. His music narrated my life.
Phil Collins could play any instrument, drums, piano, guitar etc etc, a truly gifted man + that voice! WOW 🔥
I grew up listening to this. Classic Tune!!
I born in '71, good ol'dayz
OMG, I about DIED when you said "This is the best song without drums I've ever heard.". I think I squealed with joy. Haha!! I LOVED THIS VIDEO!!!!!!! You just made my whole day! Thank you for doing what you do!!!
Looove it. Does,t get any better!!!
❤
And then, "ah, you've been walking up to that drumset the whole time." Priceless!
Totally!
Ikr
Every drummer watching had the biggest troll face when he said "This is the best song without drums I've ever heard". Because this is the #1 air drum song in the world!
And THEN there's his drum solo whole the band takes a break: czcams.com/video/fq0E6ECEkgw/video.html
Hmm Moby Dick?😆
😂😂😂
Yes, but that was before they came in. Great reaction, wld be shocked otherwise. Av bn 2 10 of his & genesis×10 ❤
Even Gorillas play it in TV Adds...
Phil Collins is a legend and this song is a classic. He literally has a voice like no other.
I've been a fan of Phil Collins since"Genesis!" ❤
When I was 22 was having an absolute terrible day. I was at the DMV with my 6mo old son and the lady sitting across from me heard me singing a Phil Collins song from Lion King to my son quietly. She asked if I had plans for the evening. I said no, so she gave me BOX SEATS to PHIL COLLINS! The concert was that night in town, and it was a private box. It was SO amazing. I took my son bc we were in the box. So that is the story of how my son's first concert was Phil Collins at 6 mos old. My son is 18 now, and Phil Collins is one of his favorites.
That’s awesome!!!
Ummm… Phil Collins didn’t write the music for The Lion King, Elton John did. Did you mean to say Tarzan? Phil Collins wrote the music for that and Brother Bear.
Great story!
That's so awesome! 🥰
@Court That was an emotional comment, may you and your be blessed and may the reason for that “absolute” terrible day be a lost memory.
Bloody loved your reaction on this one, I was sat on the edge of my seat waiting for Phil Collins to hit the drums 😂
Me too!
Me three❤❤😂😂
Phil Collins changed things ...the way people thought about "lead singers" movie soundtracks, tv shows...like Miami Vice
it just never gets old does it....musical perfection,, you have either got it or you dont,,, and phils got it , a jedi knight
love when you said " best song I've ever heard with no drums" ... not realizing Phil is the drummer
Phil was a drummer before he was a singer, and a perfect performer--the timing on this is marvelous
Made me laugh
This is just one example of why the 80's had some of the greatest music of ALL TIME!
AMEN!!!!!
Agree
Exactly.
Got Right ✅ That's my Music. For Sure there are some new Song's, But they create there Songs to Earn money. In the 80 they play the music ,only to play the music✅ And they have so much f****** fun ❤️🌈
My son always tells me that the 80's have the best music ever
He was sensational. This Song is haunting. Musical genius and singer and still today. We love you phill always
It's amazing how many great songs that he has. Watch his eyes. Alot of singers don't make eye contact with the audience. But Phil not only makes eye contact with his audience he also connects with his music.
Who else can wail on the drums while singing like that? Phil is a freaking legend.
Karen Carpenter did it-BEFORE him...js
Don Henley
He's great
I'm gonna throw Roger Taylor in as on this level
Paulina Villarreal. 5 foot tall ball of energy
There are just a handful of excellent singer/drummers. The best have already been mentioned. Another is Levon Helm of The Band.
"This is the best song without drums I've ever heard"
- Polo, talking the song which had the most famous drum fill of all time.
I mean, I felt like maybe he was trolling us. Is this really your first time, sir??
@@EstaraTshirai maybe he grew up only listening to rap, like the guys on twins r the new trend channel.
My thoughts exactly! I was oh, no , sir! This guy is a drummer!!! Wait for it! ❤️
@@EstaraTshirai My response was "Ohhh he doesn't know... this is gonna be *GOOOOOOD"* - and I'm inclined to think he was for real with that comment based on his reaction to the drums at the end.
Exactly
I’m so proud of Phil Collins…Such a talent!
No dancers, no prancers, and no vixens... pure talent and connection with the audience. This is when 100$ for a regular seat is absolutely worth it. Another great performance, such as this, was when I saw Dan Fogelberg sing "Leader of the Band."
Not to take away from Phil but my most prized possession is my ticket stub from Led Zeppelin ‘1977, it was $9.50 for general admission and we wound up 14 rows from the stage.
When he said, “this is the best song without drums I’ve ever heard” oh man, the excitement/anticipation for when he goes in on the drums was crazy. Great reaction 🙋🏻♀️👍🏼🙌🏼👏🏼💜🇨🇦
I just thought "Wait and see"...
I was like, is he trolling 😂
YES!!! Me exactly lol
When this song first came out, there were times when you would be sitting in your car, listening to the song, and then when the drum solo came (the part you said was badass), you'd see 3 other cars all around you all doing the air drums to that part. It was the coolest thing...
Omg I miss that kind of shit SO MUCH. When cruising the mall at 16-17 back in '00, we still always listened to the radio and CDs was something rich kids had in their cars. You could totally tell who was listening to 98.7 or 99.5 in their car by whenever In the Air Tonight came on!
@@MegaKat And then every once in awhile, you'd make eye contact with someone else who realized exactly what was going on, and you'd both smile and laugh hysterically... great times, I tell ya!
@@ArtofFreeSpeech oh God, absolutely! Or they'd have their windows rolled down, just as I did, and something like Spacelord would be on 100.3 and we'd start singing along with them, we'd grin at them, they would grin back, and we'd hit that chorus HARD with
I LEFT MY THRONE A MILLION MILE AWAY
definitely good times!
Omg. I almost forgot that was a thing. You could always figure out what station ppl were listening to 🤣
Me and my two young sons ages9 and 4! All doing make belief drums,!
I'm 78 and Phil Collins has been one of my favorites since he started with Genesis and Peter Gabriel. Great drummer, unique voice! We used to listen to him for hours, sipping wine and enjoying the mood.
I loved both. Equally. Miss those days!
Musicians were built different back in the day!👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
One of the greatest musicians Britain has ever produced . I feel so lucky I grew up as a teenager in the 80s listening to great music . I'm 55 now and this performance still gives me goose bumps . Such a shame Phil Collins is now struggling with parkinsons disease.
I was terribly sad when I heard about Phil's fight with Parkinson's Disease.
All my thoughts, prayers and positive vibes are with him and all who love him.
☮️☮️☮️💖☮️☮️☮️
OMG! Really? Parkinson’s? I can’t deal! This man created the rhythm of my life.
I'm with you bro! I feel the same way
@@ThePowerflake I know how you feel. He's a brilliant artist, man and it breaks my heart.
I didn't recognize him him in a recent picture. When my son was born he loved listening/watching Phil Collins/Genesis. He's now fast approaching his 37th birthday and still listens. Phil Collins is timeless.
Watching people react to this video for the first time never gets old.
The first 2 minutes is the musical equivalent of foreplay, so by the time the drums rise up from below, the audience is whipped into a lather. Gentlemen, take note. LOL
Amazing comment haha!
You got that right❣️
YEAH WHAT SHE SAID!!
2022's Best Comment Award goes to Nancy Rutman!! 🤣
I gotta give credit to why i'm still married.
I am 70 and listen to all ages of music. It is so personal. Some of the new music and artists I try listening to as much as I can
…and now you know why the crowd went crazy when they heard the first strum of the guitar!
I can't believe there is a person in this world who is just now hearing this song for the very first time. Amazing 🤩 one of my all time favorite songs ever !
Never too late to show mad respect to Collins!
I was 31 when this came out and 40 years later is still great to hear it again thank you.
There are moments I feel sorry for the younger generations that missed out on what real musicians were. I'm happy that you can at least see and appreciate it when you see it now!! ❤
Those of us who got to see Phil do this in concert, in his prime, regard it as a near-religious experience. Some feelings can’t be explained, you just needed to BE there…
That's how I feel about "Stranglehold." I feel you
Yes! I say this wasn't just a song.. it was an experience.
Amen!!!!
Well said. The song absolutely is religious. It vibrates your soul
I did and you're right. The entire concert was one of the best live performances I've ever seen!
What's unbelievable were all of the hit songs Phil Collins had through the years. Some rock stars hated him for it. The man was a hit machine.
I was just listening and imagining how electrifying it must have been to be in that audience! Oh, lord!!
I know by your reactions that it has really hit you, thanks for playing this ❤
The 80's had some of the coolest music that fused past, present and future...we rocked out to this when I was in my teens- I'm 55 now! Phil Collins...legend!
I have skated many laps to this song, lol!
Yes!!!
Me too. I'm 55 this year and I have loved this song for almost 40 years!!
56 and loved Phil Collins amongst other like The Jam Blondie. We had music good 👍
Those of us who grew up in the 80’s had the best music. Genesis and a Phil Collins carved a new line in the sand of music!
Saw him a couple years ago. Due to physical ailments he sat for most of the concert. His 18 year old son played the drums which was special in and of itself, but then for this song, he stood. And his baby boy killed it on the drums 😭❤️😭❤️. What a beautiful thing to witness.
I was there in Philly 2018. Baby boy killed it. PCollins always gives a great show.
He retired now because of his health. I miss him.
I saw him in Dallas for that tour.
I’m afraid the next time we see him in the news it will be a sad sad day…
Yes. Saw that same tour in NC. He was in a great deal of pain , as he had undergone back surgery and went on tour anyway.
Best concerts…….. hands down GENESIS with Phil❤️ 1985
Phill Collins is a fantastic drummer who sings incredibly well! He is an all around talent! He wrote this song about his divorce!
I'm 67. I can remember the first time I ever heard this song. It gave me goose bumps then and it give me goose bumps now. One of my all time favorites. So glad you young kids are bringing back old rock. Thank you
Gives me goosebumps thinking bout what I was doing.back then, who I was hanging round with!!
me too.. 66 ...
I agree. My kids learned a lot of different generations of music. Kids need to listen to some.
I hear you Birdhouse I was 19 or 20 and now I'm almost 61 and i feel the same way man cheers Dx
It's not called "old rock" anymore.
It's true rock now.🤘
Your reaction to the drum intro was almost as great as the song itself. Your response was almost emotional and I totally understand why. Phil Collins is a legend.
Another one of my favorite artists. He is the same age as I am which is 73. Love Phil Collins! He had a fantastic career! He played piano during the Live Aid show.
One of best songs ever.
"I gotta hear that part again" . Says everyone who has ever heard this song. Phil "OWNED" the 80s. It's unfortunate he's in such poor health these days. Not bad for a guy who reluctantly decided 'What the heck, I'll try singing".
Here's Phil with Genesis singing lead in 1971, I don't think your statement is quite true. czcams.com/video/BHus88oxvLE/video.html
That reminds me of the line in his ".. I wish it would rain down" video. "..I never said I could act, HE said I could sing..." Or similar to that ..
It’s really sad because he himself has said that he still mostly has his vocals but not his body.
So if anything he might be able to make an appearance or two and maybe record a song
I've enjoyed listening to this song so many times but watching Polo react to it made it feel like I was hearing it for the first time again. What a song. Phil Collins is on another level.
And now you know why Phil Collins is still the favorite of so many of us boomers. We mourn that he suffers from severe aplastic anemia and can no long perform.
Phil Colins is one of the greatest. ❤❤
Genius!! This man laid out every ounce of pain he’s held. He kills it. Loved it live ❤ love the different reactions of first time listener’s
"best song ive heard without drums " .. i smiled all over ..
My half sisters dad is the piano player for phil in this vid. Phil was my first concert in the early 90’s and is one of the best live performers IMO. love seeing people check out phil for the first time.
How wonderful!!!!!
Not only in this vid. He has been with Phil since 1990 - and we hear him singing (the "computer voice" in the background).
SO LUCKY!!! 😍👍🏽😉😊👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
No way... Brad is one of the best!
@@fdkbonn always love to hear that people know his name. ♥️ cheers
It’s like the threat gains momentum then a crashing attack !!! That drum break is total cracking power!!! Thanks bringing this to us Polo!
Those drums are iconic of this song. You know when anyone in their car is listening, because when those drums come, whew! We ALL do them air drums! 80's forever!!
This song was written by Phil about his x wife and his divorce. She cheated on him while he was on tour which explains the anger. It's an iconic song by a legendary man. Love you Phil! ❤
❤️
She had an affair with a painter n decorator. Phil Collins sang this song for the first time on top of the pops, with a tin of paint next to him! 😅
This video was recorded "Live in Paris" when it was already world famous for near two decades. Music nerds knew that drum-break coming and anticipated the whole song. But can you imagine how that felt when it hit the people first? Fresh on vinyl - lots of former Genesis fans now curious about Phil's first solo album. And then thunder struck...
Yes, this performance was recorded in Paris. But "Live in Paris" was the name of a tour in 1997 (with a totally different looking stage by the way). This one was actually from his "First Farewell Tour" in 2004.
Didn’t know this was in Paris. Does it happen to be the same place where Rammstein recorded their amazing performance of “Du hast”? It’s one of my other favourite live recordings.
@@sauermusicDE... Recorded live in Paris... Would be better without parantheses. You are so right. Thanks for emphasising!
I’ve got all his albums both with Genesis and solo and he’s my favourite, such a nice guy too
More than that even, there are a lot of people that credit this song for the popularity of Miami Vice. The amount of people that heard it for the first time watching Crockett and Tubbs drive that Ferrari to confront the big bad guy...
Phil is KING of percussion hands down
I am 68 years old.
I played drums when I was young. I can't get enough of this performance.
Makes me want to buy another drum set and play again.
Thank you for posting this and making an old rocker love the drums again. ❤
The term “classic” gets thrown around too often but this song still hits so goddam hard. Classic.
He slayed the 80's. Every other song on the radio was his, and not the same one being played over and over like today! Almost every song he touched was a banger! This song is when he went solo. He's always been percussion and lead vocals. Check out his first band Genesis.
Great comment, but I have to point out that Phil was with Brand X before Genesis, and the music was also KILLER
Phil Collins is the G.O.A.T.. LOVE HIM.
Partied many night's to this song. Never gets old listening to this song
It’s called one of the best “beat drops” of all time for a reason. ❤️❤️🔥🔥🔥 Phil Collins is a beast of his own. Thanks for reacting. He has plenty of other awesome songs
Mesmerizing...how Phil Collins takes command of the entire arena with only his eyes, his presence and his voice. Truly amazing. This was my favorite song when i was 13 yrs old in jr high. Im 55 now and i still love it just as much.
Me too
Yeah same here!!!! I first heard him on an album I borrowed from a library and I heard this track and I thought "Omg who IS this guy??? I'm buying my OWN copy of THIS!!!" 🤣👍think I wore the vinyl tracks off it tbh...
Leah, yepper, I was about 18. Miami Vice, you HAD to be home on Friday night for that!!!!
I’m with you there. I was 15 when the album Face Value came out. I was blown away by it then and I still am now.
It is one of those rare, so rare, instances where the song can never be overplayed. I can listen to this and Africa a thousand times in a row and still be jamming with goosebumps.
I've been listening to him since I was a kid
I've watched your reaction to this video over and over. I love how you love Phil.
I remember when this played on Miami Vice. Blew us away because the context of the episode was matching perfectly to the lyrics. Absolutely one of the best live performances of all time.
Every time I hear this song the image of Crockett & Tubbs in the Ferrari pops into my head.
@@phunkydroid right as the big moment is about to go down....
It was the premiere two hours episode of Miami Vice, Brother's Keeper. The scene was a masterpiece of TV cinematography, and changed television forever, bringing the era of popular songs crafted into popular shows.
Yes! Miami Vice and this song…eternal. Unforgettable.
This song blasting as the wheels are turning and they race down the highway. It was epic.
Phil Collins not only has an incredible voice but is also regarded as one of the greatest drummers in drum circles.
Drums? Just look at the Cadbury chocolate ad with the Gorilla. Thanks for appreciating the best of British. Enjoy .Tone. Phil is the best! I am 77 years of age and I have tears every time I hear the song. Amazing. You have a good show
Beyond amazing, we were so lucky to grow up with Phil Collins
Phil Collins started out as a teenager playing drums for Genesis then their singer left and he became the singer then went out on his own. If you hear this while driving you will play the drums on your steering wheel, we 've all done it😁
Yeah it's probably not wise to play this and drive at the same time. I have that same thing with the Music for the Deaf album by Queens of the stone age. Air drumming for my life!
I was there in South East London with 3,000 others to see the first-ever Top Of The Bill show by Genesis exactly 50 years ago,in 1972:)
@@Isleofskye Well... HAPPY 50th anniversary you lucky bastard!! :))
Super cool, I have no doubt it's a memory you and those other 2999 cool people treasure dearly!
Thanks but I would rather be 18 again, my friend:)
They were supposed to be the support Group but the original bill toppers: Bell 'n Arc" disbanded the day b4 and they stepped up and never looked back.
Wiki confirms that other group did disband in 1972 not 1982 :)
@@Isleofskye Well, it had to be I guess!
I think us older folks were lucky to be young before this age of madness.. Things weren't perfect ever but I wouldn't want to be 18 today.. And IF I could go back in time, I would too, but not without some of the knowledge I have today :)
Personally I've never seen Genesis live but have seen other greats like Sting, Stevie Wonder and Michael Jackson.. And heard Prince do a soundcheck through a door hahah.. Sadly it was the last time he was in The Netherlands and I didn't have money for a ticket.. But never the less: Experiences to be grateful for. Have a good one lovely person over the pond :) Let's ENJOY the music forever!!
Man, this song. It never get's old. The suspense and build-up to the drums is so awesome. I am still heartbroken that Phil can't play the drums anymore. Those performances were legendary
Oh can’t he? How come? I guess he must be really getting on in age now..
@@plan4life He had back surgery that went sideways and he can barely stand as a result. The surgery was done because of the pain from years and years of drumming. Not really age related (he's 71), since Mick Jagger (78), Rod Stewart (77), & Paul McCartney (80) are still filling arenas.
@@MoanAlotsa_24-7 Oh, I had no clue. That is quite tragic, he was such an exceptional drummer.
@@plan4life yeah sadly this last tour he struggled to stand so he sat most of the time. He would still get up to hype the crowd for this song before sitting at the drums. I believe he mentioned that even sitting now hurts his back
@@plan4life his son Nick is as good as him and plays with him now
To this day, this still leaves me speechless. The whole band and Phil are just so incredible! What talent - wow!
I’ve loved Phil Collins my whole life, breaks my heart when I see him now , AMAZING ARTIST 💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💔😘🇬🇧
