I had the pleasure of going to the concert he gave in my country last year. It was very exciting, a gift for the soul. Phil sang sitting, with the same feeling as always; and his son played drums. Superlative!!! Thanks Phill for that unforgettable moment !!! 💕
Wow, 34 years passed like it was yesterday!😢 If we only knew then what we know now! To all those amazing memories and days we thought would last forever!❤
My uncle was a backing singer. He met my mum drunk in the coach and made luv to her . She was asleep but woke up after and said who the fuk are you and he said im baby daddy now .true story and a fun one . I grew up listning to Collins in my cage in a attick in the isle of man . Great memeories
I'm a grown man, but every time I hear this song it brings tears to my eyes. I'd like to share with you why. When I was younger I fell deeply in love with a girl, and she me. We both loved this song. Before I had met her I had become addicted to prescription painkillers from a sports injury I suffered, but that addiction ultimately took me to heroin. I was so in love with this girl and couldn't bear the thought of losing her if she found out. Hiding an addiction is nearly impossible and so is trying to find help for that addiction. She did find out and I'll never be able to forgive myself for the pain I know I caused her. Rather than saying good-bye to me, she stuck with me. Because of some serious crimes I had committed during the addiction I was arrested. I had never been in trouble before, so the day of my sentencing, she came with me and I was terrified of going to prison. I stood before the judge as he was about to pass sentence and looked over at her and she smiled. My knees buckled as the judge sentenced me to twenty years in a maximum security prison. I can't explain what I felt at that moment. I knew I had lost her for good and that thought bothered me more than getting the twenty years. After being in prison for about a month my name was called for a visit and it was her!! She said that she would be there when I got out. She came to visit every two weeks like clock work. Years went by and my name came up for parole after serving 19 years, 8 months. I was granted paroled and extremely excited and couldn't wait to tell her the news. I called, but there was no answer. After repeated calls, and no one answering I had called her Mom it was then that my world fell apart. In the two weeks since her last visit she was hospitalized after her Mom found her unconscious on the floor not breathing. During the time I was making all the calls to share with her the news that I was getting out, she had passed away. She had been sick for a long time, but she never told me, she didn't want to make my time any harder. In the few days before she passed away she had given her Mom a note for me, all it said inside was "Do you remember?". Thanks for letting me share.
Wow Scorpio54 your story is so sad, i cried my eyes out. Bless your Heart, I'm so sorry. And i already know she was absolutely a wonderful woman, and definitely loved you. I lost my husband 2 years ago this past July and it hasn't gotten any easier yet, but i hope and Pray it has for you. I've always heard God has a plan for all of us, i just don't understand what it is yet but i will never doubt him though. But i hope your doing better and God Bless You Always 😇😘
My favorite Phil Collins song. The first time I heard it, it reminded me of my father. I was five years old when I last saw him. He put me on plane to the US to live with my mother. He wrote letters, but I never understood why he wouldn't come see us when he said he would. Maybe I had done something for him to send me away. As a child, I thought maybe I was to blame for him not coming back to us. After a while, I learned to stop expecting anything of him, but I still loved him. Nothing that he did could have changed the love. He died on my 19th birthday and I played this song. The tears would not stop as I listened to the lyrics..."there was always something more important to do, more important to say...and now it's too late." 16 years later, the tears still roll.
+Sandra Akins sorry to hear of your story with your father. Children are too small to know what problems their parents had, and always think it is their own fault. It is not. It was something else, you may never find out. Read about missing fathers on a psychology website to know it wasn't because of you
Once I listened to this with my ex with someone WHOM I called my life and love... So many memories... But at the end she betrayed me many time and she left while I was sick on the bed... I cannot sleep and I listen to it now... Oh my Lord give all of us patience
truly a masterpiece.Phil Collins is such a brilliant performer and a song writer.He has written songs that captivates a lot of appreciation in the world of music.
Happy 29mil love your videos and keep doing your thing you just make me smile every day and I going to sleep with this sound on Whoever reads this i wish you a great 2023 with abundance in love and blessings 🥁💕
This is one of many songs in which Phil pours his heart out after the break-up of his marriage. He is one of the greatest at putting his heart into his lyrics.
We will be gone, but the music that we grew up with will transcend through time until the end of time. God Bless You , Phil Collins, and thank you for the song.
This is the most beautiful song, it speaks to the inner most soul, a lot of people can relate to this song no matter the circumstances. Thank u Phil for the great music, this goes a long way indeed! (Legendary)
Can’t forget when I played this to my ex after a 3 year relationship, my life hasn’t been the same since😔. I listen this whenever I remember/miss her, thanks for the song Phil
Yes, I do remember...when music was actually good. I'm so glad I was teenager in the 80s. I won't rant about today's music, it's not worth my time and has been said plenty.
I love this song it makes me feel very sentimental I love music that touches my heart and my soul. Makes me believe in genuine and real love. Feelings which money can't buy. I shall always be listening no matter how old I am or may get. Much appreciation man. Wish singers of nowadays used to sing music such as this, so soulful and definitely beautiful. Actually talking about genuine and real feelings of the heart.
I've waited my entire life (I'm 33) to see him. He stopped touring when I was in high school and it broke my heart. But a good friend of mine bought tickets and invited me to go.. I just saw him in Houston 2 days ago!!! I'm still freaking out. It was absolutely incredible. And I only cried once! Lol #BucketList
