- A song about loss, divorce, anger and frustration all wrapped into one of Phil Collin's first singles, "In The Air Tonight" is an emotional tale from Phil's own life. It will be interesting going on this journey with empathy and perspective.

shoutout to the divorced!
You did know he was the drummer for genesis
..... Just a wee critisism stop interrupting soooooooo much, take a breath love the sound and chill and smile ๐
No one I watched said anything about the bass line. ๐
Hey Elizabeth... I watched this video about back when you first put it out, and so the other day I ran across a very sad news update video on Phil Collins.
He's now gone from the incredibly capable singer / drummer / stage performer who could sing so well even when being physically active drumming (as you pointed out) to a near wheelchair-bound man who, in his own words, can barely even *hold* a drumstick in his hands, much less hit a drum.
Evidently he's had some health issues as well as having taken a very nasty fall in his home a few years back, and now has tremendous nerve damage. I gather he can still sing, but he's both functionally and physically now a shell of the man he used to be.
Very, very sad.
When he starts the drums, NEVER PAUSE. It is a crime against humanity.
Damn skippy it is!
When you pause the drum solo, even the angels in Heaven and the demons in Hell go "Hey! We were listening to that!"
She talks too much...
@@raffytaganile2955 While I enjoy hearing what she has to say, she does need to work on her timing for pauses.
@@SuperStarWarsFan1138 I understand your point, but this is a reaction video, not a listening to video, so I guess if you want genuine reactions you have to accept her enthusiastic pauses. We can all go and listen to the performance without interruptions if thatโs what we really want.
The vocoder was on the backing vocal, controlled by the keyboard player, who's also controlling the 808 hihat line. Obviously the main drum line is held down by the first guy, we designed the performance so Phil could be nice and relaxed and just do the 'solo' part on his kit while preserving the dynamic element of the vocal part.
Great info! Upvoted, hopefully Elizabeth will see this :-)
I have absolutely zero idea what you said, but I wholeheartedly agree
AS AN AUDIO/PERFORMANCE NERD THANK YOU FOR COMING HERE AND COMMENTING THIS!
you can see the vocoder guy at @21:19 bottom left
Did you set it up differently for the gorilla?
The look on your face at the 18th minute and the rapid blinking of your eyelids says exactly what his music makes you feel. Phil Collins, the singer, writer and drummer is brilliant.
It's because drums come so natural to him. 50+ years of drumming and 40+ years of singing while drumming. Knowing where his health is right now, watching this brought me to tears when he hit those drums.
Every time i watch this, its all i can do to hold back the tears from just flowing without even knowing why ..
It makes me sad to see Phil look as old and frail as he does today.
Me too! That was his passion!
Yes, so sad.
Sadly we all get old. Coming up there's going to be a lot of legends passing on to whatever death holds. So many, but the comfort we have are the recordings of their lives to carry us through till it's our time to check out.
โHe is in a groove with his voice, almost like how a drummer is in a grooveโ
- proceeds to do the best drum break of all time ๐
Yeah...that was awesome that she didn't know there was a fantastic drum solo coming. (She was the only one who didn't know!)
And he plays the drums๐
@@catherinelynnfraser2001 He was originally the drummer with Genesis, taking over the vocals after Peter Gabriel left. Seeing her reaction to his talent that we've been enjoying since 1978 is like, dudette, where have you been?
@@billfitzmaurice3837 I know, right? I can't help but wonder where she was doing research on him that didn't say he was and had always been a drummer. I'd always found Phil Collins fascinating and amazing for being that lead singer NOT on a guitar or keyboard. I think being a percussionist is what gave Phil such a visceral feeling with his songs. I'm so sad for him that he can't play music like he had due to his health. He's endured so much.
@@Tiewaz Sad, yes, but sooner or later the torch must be passed. I saw him/Genesis in December, and you've never seen a prouder father than Phil when he introduced their current drummer, 'My boy Nic', who's just as good as Phil ever was.
You know those chills? We've been feeling them for 42 years now. That's Phil Collins.
those chills are in the air
@@NonsensicalSpudz tonight!
Correct.
Yeah this song was amazing when it first dropped, and still is today.
My best accomplishment might be that my college aged kids know Philโs name and music. And hit the cue perfectly on air drums! ๐๐
"It's really hard to play the drums and sing at the same time" - Phil Collins..."Hold my beer!"
I know right ๐๐๐
I believe he said... "Hold my Guinness!"
We could walk and chew gum at the same time too! Babyboomers Unite!
โ, c'mon.
You know he can't dance, and he can't sing... :)
๐คฃ@@bontondon4502 ๐คฃ
4 decades on..and this is still THE drum solo. Every time it is played, the volume goes up. Way up. Immortal song
Not a drum solo, but yes, the most iconic break in any song
A DJ in Philadelphia years ago gave a funny award to Phil Collins for โThe Largest Drums Ever Recordedโ for this song.
People in the audience when he sits at the drums: โIโve been waiting for this moment for all my life.โ
Exactly๐
Oh lord!
๐ถ๐ฅ๐ถ
wait for it.... here it comes....yeah I am singing my head off with Phil Collins!!!!!
"almost like a drummer would be in a groove"...classic, perfectly timed comment!
I thought the very same thing, and was thinking, wait for it..... wait...
Yes, it was remarkably well timed and insightful.
as he steps up to them. flawless victory!
That was on the timing level of every Jinjer Pisces reaction pausing at a specific moment and then either going "this is nice and mellow" or "I hope they pick up a bit".
Yep, I was like "lol... just wait 'til he sits down..."
The loook on your face once he started drumming said, "WTF JUST HAPPENED?!?! ๐คฃ๐คฃ๐คฃ It was great. Glad you liked it.
It was painful knowing what was coming and her pausing it right before it happened. I just kept saying, LET IT PLAY. DON"T STOP IT.
Her face expressions, so perplexed and full of awe, it was priceless, to me it was so emotional, I envy her for the chance to experience it for the first time.
That's pretty much what I felt when I heard it the first time too!
the percussion - Phil. He was Genesis's drummer - then Peter Gabriel left, and Phill said he'd have a go at singing. I'm glad you're as impressed with him as all us Brits are :)
Yeah I love how she doesnโt realize that heโs the drummer and lead singer of Genesis after Peter. Ahโฆ to experience music for the first time! Wish I could do it all over again.
I totally agree. It's mindblowing.
I wish I'd never heard Jimi Hendrix too, so I could repeat the thrill of hearing him for the first time
The crowd starts going nuts as he approaches the drum set because thatโs one of the most famous drum breaks of all time. They knew what was coming.
So true
And as I suspected she totally hosed it up...lolol. Just can't help herself.
They could feel it coming in the air that night.
Mike tyson style
I pictured Mike tyson air drumming lol
The older I get, the more I appreciate what a singularly amazing musical talent Phil Collins really is.
I agree
10000000% I was gonna same today word for word
He's my favorite male singer.
Here here! One of my all time favorite artists!
I agree!!! Wow..
Phil Collins is a musical genius. Incredible talent. But this is the song that immediately brings him to mind. But the ending? OH MY LORD!
Elizabeth's reaction when Phil started playing the drums while singing (without missing a single beat) is my reaction every time I see a live performance of this song ๐It is truly amazing.
Phil Collins was a drummer who accidentally starting singing. He pioneered gated reverb on drums, that classic 80s drum sound. Phil Collins, a legend.
I've heard that he's always said he didnt like his voice- said he couldn't sing very well! In reality, his voice is freaking awesome!
@@NotAChevy1969 Correct, he felt that way well into the mid 80s . Thx to all the gods he didn't quit singing !
@@urgigrull4013 I know.. He's one of the greatest ever. As a teen in the 80s, put on some Phil Collins and the girls came flocking..
We didn't have beautiful people with highly produced music back in the day. You had to be damn good all the time. CF: Neil Young, Joe Cocker, B. B. King.
I saw Ray Charles in a smoky little club in Ihe 70s, and his rig wasn't much better than my garage band's rig (yes, we snuck in), but jumping Jehosaphat did he make it work for him. One man, one keyboard, and 'The Raylettes' backing him up. Better than his shows at the Hollywood Bowl, at least for me. I could see the sweat dripping off of his nose, hear the sound of the Raylette's shoes on the stage. Heaven!
Music has been the foundation of my family's life for generations, and your joyful analysis of all types of music has rekindled the flame for my first true love. Thank you for who you are and what you do!
@@kmc8ij1 I know. Those were the days, eh? Iโm 51 so I remember them all too well.
Everyone:- Here it comes
Phil Collins:- Does his thing
The Charismatic Voice:- Surprised Pikachu face
Should have live audience to the live reaction
Check out Paulina from the Mexican band The warning, she can sing and play the drums at the same time like Phil Collins, but even harder, she has a beautiful voice and her 2 sisters are amazing too (:
@@chewingpiano I was going to say the same thing - she needs to see Survive from the TED talk concert.
@@MattLathrum Better yet, this performance. ๐ krplus.net/bidio/YpeNapqje23afXY
Would love if she did some (old) Genesis!
I'm 68 and to this day, I hear this song and CRANK IT UP!
There is nothing more 1980's than the sound of Phil Collins drums.
One of the most iconic drum fills in history, by one of the best known drummers of all time.
Check out the drum duet with Chester Thompson ,
Awesome !
He's also good at the piano (guy with a huge beard said that in the interview).
This one and Jack and Diane!
They should call them drum Phils in his honor.
And it's deceptive as well. Normally when you just go down the toms it's called "falling down the stairs". Phil added extra accents and notes. He made it his own. That's the way the truly great ones do it.
"He is in a groove with his voice, almost like a drummer would be in a group."
Died. Laughing.
I lost it there too :)
Same.
If she only knew
โ@@heidibrowershe read about him before this, I'm pretty sure she knew๐
These youngins killed me๐๐๐
I was waiting in anticipation to see her reaction to his Iconic drumming in the song. It did not disappoint!
What do you expect? When you hear the name Phil Collins, you associate two things: perfect drums and the voice of one of the most charismatic artists of the last decades!
The look on your face when Phil started playing the drums was priceless.
That part didn't happen in GTA Vice City ;)
I love her smile/jawdrop.
Ya, itโs like she didnโt know that she was watching one of the greatest musicians of all time.
@@scootscootriot Yep agree. That's what you get when you're watching one of the best in the business!
The moment she realizes heโs a fantastic drummer, too: Priceless.
Should we tell her about Dave Grohl?
Or Don Henley from the Eagles
@Blake N Not sure I agree with your description of Dave Grohl. Foo Fighters are celebrating 25 years as a band this year and have just released their 10th album.
While they were a seminal band with a huge influence, Nirvana only released 3 albums and were one of those "James Dean" bands (Live fast, die young, leave behind a beautiful corpse). These days, most people would be very surprised to learn that Dave was their DRUMMER.
Not just a fantastic drummer. Legitimate top 10 of all time drummer. Try it, Google "top ten drummers of all time" and there he is at #10
@Blake N Point taken. I agree, that longevity and number of albums doesn't confer "greatness" (one of my favourite artists is Devin Townsend - 25 + albums in a 30 year career yet virtually unknown to the wider public), and there is no comparison between the influence of Genesis and Foo Fighters. My point was that more people today would know Dave Grohl from Foo Fighters, rather than Nirvana. And that they would be surprised to learn that Dave was even in Nirvana.
You should do Phil Collins live version of "I don't Care Anymore", great song, with a great backstory as well, also about his divorce. Underappreciated song as well.
๐ฏ!
I love that song!
Dang. That divorce literally fueled his career! Two hit songs worth of pain. She must have been an amazing gal!
HE PLAYED AND SING THE WHOLE 26YRS. HE WAS WITH GENESIS FROM 1970-1996. HE'S CONSIDERED ONE OF THE RARE FEW AND GREATEST SIMULTANEOUSLY SINGER DRUMMERS EVER.
โHeโs in a groove...like a drummerโ get ready for some incredible news lol
I almost screamed at my computer!!! HA HA HA!!!
My thoughts exactly!!
The joy on her face when he starts to play the drums is how we all feel every time.
LOVE 18:48 mark where Elizabeth realizes that Phil is singing AND pounding out an incredible drum solo. Her face is priceless. Looks like she is about to have a private adult moment.
You know when a singer is singing an emotional song, the instruments become a part of the emotion your singing. Which to me it makes sense that the drums are expressing the words also, with emotion. It's like your own backup voice. It's not just a beat, it's an emotion. He and the drums are one.
I love it when people don't know that he plays the drums. The reaction when he starts pounding the kit, is always priceless.
PRICELESS. I never get tired of seeing the reaction.
exactly
Every time I watch this young lady, the phrase, "Like a kid in a candy store" comes to mind. Her excitement is contagious.
Have you watched her react to Creep? It's a cover but I can't think of who sings it. She gets super hyped! Lol
@@kelleewolfe2834 Nope. But I will before the say is done. Thanks!
Itโs her expertise - being able to articulate why a performance is good and the technique that goes into it is so much more entertaining than a simple emotive reaction.
@@kelleewolfe2834 OK, I just now watched her review of Creep. I think she went from a kid in a candy store to a kid on Christmas morning. I thought she was going to hyperventilate a couple of times. :-) Thanks for suggesting her review of Creep. Oh! The cover was by Post Modern Jukebox.
cringe
Phil's timing is amazing. It just seems like Phil is wandering about aimlessly. Yet he arrives at his drum kit just in time for his drum riff, solo. One of the best drum solos ever. Everyone in the world has played "air-drums" to it!!!
Your smile and the shine in your eyes are SO warm and charming!!! A true reaction!!! Plus you managed to teach me something --- you mentioned a vocoder. I had heard this song 1000 times. And did not know that is what it was. I just figured it was just the keyboard. Well, I guess it is!!!! I love it and I so enjoy your channel........!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Drummers that play and sing at the same time??? Think Karen Carpenter, Don Henley, Phil Collins, and many more......... Talent permits this!!!
I have read and heard that Phil is beginning to have health problems. Bummer!!! But he is still out there for us!!! The man is gifted, a true talent!!!!!!.............. Thank you young lady... You are special......... How is your new baby??? I hope and pray that he is well....... I am certain that he is growing super fast!!!! Enjoy every second of being a mother. You will learn how to function without any sleep as time goes on... That is part of the process and job!!! Love your channel, thanks.....................
If you really pay attention to his wandering, he definitely hits specific spots at specific points in the song. It really goes to show how talented he is; he's essentially holding the entire song in his head with sticky notes all over it. "Hit the bottom of the stairs here, vocoder there, be ready to push through the cheers when they see you getting to the drums."
How I wish I hear this song for the first time again... This channel is perfect for this purpose.
That voice and those drums send shivers.
LOL the moment when Elizabeth realized that Collins is a drummer. And a damn good one. The build up to the huge da dum, da dum, da dum, da dum dum dum DUM! Is iconic in rock music history. Genesis was such a terrific band.
Is! They are going on tour again!
Yea, I watched her reaction when realized he was drumming too.
Brand X was an alien band .
Phil is just a monster on the kit
it was today when i realized he was the one who played that part. i've known the song since i was little, and i knew he played drums but i'd never watched a live performance so my reaction was just like hers haha !
To see the suprise on her face when he played the drums! Its Phil Collins. One of the best drummers in the world playing one of the most iconic drum rhythms in the world. He is famous for being able to sing at the same time. Not sure how she missed this information when she googled him.
I'm not sure how anyone from planet Earth even has to google Phil Collins, or has never heard this song...at least in passing, lol!
"He is in a groove with his voice, almost like a drummer would" :))))))) Priceless!
I was waiting for that moment all my life. Or at least from the start of the song :D
Sheโs obviously a lot younger than us ๐. I grew up on Genesis and Phil Collins. But she only remembers him from the theme song from Tarzan because โshe was a Disney Kid.โ
Man, I do regret never seeing him in concert. He is amazing!
@@michaelanderson215 USA isn't the whole world mate
His voice is clear and precise...because he sings
ENGLISH...ENGLISH...was a choir singer when a child...thats his angel voice..
As one of his generation's best 'emoters' WHY HAVE YOU NOT DONE MORE PHIL COLLINS? There are few singers who can equal his ability to convey his emotions so intimately and authentically through song. This is true both in his band Genesis and here in his solo performances. ps His ability to handle poly-rhythms truly IS his super-power!
And Dire Straits! โค
@@letsgococo288 YES! She seems pretty swamped with requests, but at the absolute minimum Dire Straits 'BROTHERS IN ARMS' is a must. The music and lyrics make this song of sorrow and resignation with its appeal for humanity one of rock's finest works ever created. She just recently discovered the Cranberries video for 'ZOMBIE' and was affected deeply. She will have a similar reaction to Brothers In Arms!
He reachs the drums just in the exact moment that the song requires. Perfection.
I about died when I saw that back then!
Pure work of art . I think he even walked down the stairs in time to the beat
40 yrs of performing it.
Only the gorilla did it better *wink
Unlike Eric Morecombe on the piano lol.... 2 yards short!
Phil is insane. The crowd knows exactly where he is going. He is known for the drums and singing. Just a Master Piece of music.
I thought he wouldn't get to the drums in time for the big fill, the speed he was walking.
I can definitely relate to the pain and anger in his voice, This song is definitely personal. ๐
As a drummer who learnt how to sing while performing later in my career, I can tell you it is incredibly difficult to sing and play drums simultaneously, but when it hits... it hits hard and is incredibly rewarding and satisfying. Phil Collins is the epitome of what I strived to be as a performer. Excellent episode, I can't wait for more!
Elizabeth: He's really in a groove, like a drummer's inner groove.
Phil: Here, hold my beer.
I'd think it would be more along the lines of Blazing Saddles: "Hold on a moment while I whip these drums out."
He is an excellent drummer, after all.
Well, Phil is almost like a drummer... :-D krplus.net/bidio/aJWqiaGagGzOdmU
@@unwesen that's like saying the Grand Canyon is a big ditch!!!
@@darrelladams7804 or a big groove. Not sure what made it, but see what I did there?
Phil's drum riff has frequently been voted as the most recognizable riff in all of rock music.
I love air drumming to this song
IMHO, it isn't the big drumming in the last half, but the subtle drum beat at the beginning is so unique to this song, it's immediately recognizable.
Itโs hard to sing and play drums at the same time, but this is what heโs done his whole career
I know I'm years late in commenting, and I absolutely love Elizabeth, her education, accomplishments, BUT.. in the last year that I've found her channel, I'm absolutely amazed at the number of ...esp.. rock artists from the 80's/90's to current that she's NEVER heard of.. chuckles, where'd you grow up? :p
When he starts playing drums, watch his eyes. you'll notice that the moment he started playing, his eyes closed. Simply put, he had to start layering the focus he used between the drum and his voice. As someone who played percussion all through school, the concept of singing while playing is ridiculous. The different layers needed just on the drums still amazes me. The fact that he is able to sing while doing that puts him at a level that I cannot understand and still sit in awe even after 40 years.
He is his own category in music.
I have no idea how complicated that is but I trust you it is. I guess that's the reason not many drummers sing at the same time they play. Roger Taylor from Queen comes to my mind but I think it's more usual that guitarists and bassists sing along than drummers.
And he can't even read music. Some people are just born with it in them. I admire people like that, and curse them in the same breath because I can't do what they can.
Working with Genesis (and his other fusion group) he and his mates took their music very seriously. To stay together from the '70s into 2007 is amazing. They are all exceptional.
Also Don Henley is another that did it often in the Eagles.
Check out The Warning. Their drummer sings lead in some songs and backing in most others. And they deserve to be much better known! :)
The look on her face when she realizes that he is playing the drums and singing at the same time, priceless. This is Mr. Phil Collins.
Seeing you hear it for the first time and in this perfect live version, made me cry a little the moment he comes in with the drums. Your face of surprise and amazement was a beautiful moment. Thanks โค
Phil Collins is a famous drummer so heโs been singing and drumming his whole career ๐๐พ
She says... "He is in a groove.. Kinda like a drummer" Boom then he sits and plays the drums. It is crazy how spot on she is!!๐
yes i picked up on that too
Kinda makes you wish she had really looked into his pedigree before reviewing his music. I stopped in mid video when she referred to Robert plant and jimmy Paige as, the singer and guitarist.
please tell me you are being sarcastic?!
You're crazy if you think she didn't know anything about Phil before she did this, please... She did her research and still doesn't understand. Smoke and mirrors "blind reaction to someone I don't know ANYTHING about" please... She's older than me and I would marry this man if I were gay. Noone doesn't know Phil!
@@thereaper2762 Honestly I could care less whether she knew or not. I thought it was a good reaction video and it doesn't really matter what anyone else thinks. Just like any other reaction video, anyone can say they knew about who they are reacting to but that's not really why I watch. She just like others have opened me up to music I actually didn't know anything about so critiquing every small detail is not why I watch.
I know this is a late comment, but I only recently discovered Elizabeth and her wonderful channel. The moment when she realizes that Phil Collins is one of the extremely rare people that can drum and sing at the same time, and the pure joy and amazement on her face, is just awesome.
Welcome to the enjoyment of her reactions! She is amazing, and I am glad you have discovered her channel. I was just watching this one again because she does such a great job, and Phil Collins gave such a mesmerizing performance in this one. I almost fell over when she was saying his voice was in a groove almost like a drummer gets in a groove JUST before the drum beat drop! Her shock seeing him drum and sing, both so amazingly well, is well worth watching again.
Yes! Phil Collins and Karen Carpenter have something in common!
@@philippesauvie639 - Karen Carpenter had such an incredible voice
Well said. I also felt her joy in that discovery.
Um, Dave Grohl?
He's a genius. This song is very powerful.
Itโs heartbreaking that he will never play the same way againโฆone of the greatest drummers of all time
Phil Collins is a legend! I miss talent like this in the media pushed music.
He's still on my bucket list to see and I felt bad I miss the last tour which might be the only time I could of seen him.
^^^
The Real King of England, baby
Once, he was one of the greatest drummers in the world.
{:-:-:}
Love Phil Collins..this song is spot on, even now...divorce-ing what does not work is key. Locally, nationally, and globally. This song came on the radio a week ago and it's as telling now as it was when it was first released. So glad Elizabeth is doing such analysis about this songs involving emotions- 'in the air'.
Honestly from all of the KRplus musicians, this woman is the most most passionate and I love hearing her explain things and it's just you can see it in her eye's and her expressions
Well said. I was about to write almost the same thing. She gives a technical explanation in a way that informs even us (me) old rockers.
@@CreatorInTrng right! I hope she react to more rock and metal music
I saw the iron maiden she did and yes I agree. I learned something as well. Out of all the reaction videos I have seen this is the best channel so far. Although STOP STOPING THE VIDEO EVERY 5 seconds. That drives me nuts.
@@CreatorInTrng both Elizabeth and @BethRoars are excellent at what they do ;). Love these videos.
Meee, 2 .......from Yuma Arizona
Phil Collins is my absolute favorite artist because he is mesmerizing.
Phil is just an amazing musician! Drummer, singer, lyricist...he just nails everything
He starts out by just standing still, in plain black clothes and still gives the audience a fantastic ride with just his voice. And then when you think "this is awesome!" he just walks up to the drums and delivers one of (if not THE) most epic drum segments. While still singing just as fantastic as before. He is a great singer, but he is a legendary drummer. He just stacks his world class talents on top of each other. Just listen to the audience when he gets close to the drums, they all know exactly what is coming, and that moment is probably the moment they all came to the concert for!
Your facial expressions are great!......its like a 5 year old on christmas morning .....your sooooo happy!
That's why this is one of my favorite reaction channels. The pure visable joy when hearing and seeing an amazing performance.
By the way, for me this song is among the greatest 25 of all time.
Sheโs not just listening, she pays attention to everything thatโs happening. But yeh, that wide-eyed glee, and her girlish giggles get me, too!
She's a real life Disney Princess, basically.
For sure, she's one of the best. I watch several dozen vocal coach and musical reactors but only subscribe to like 3 and she is one of them.
phil is phil it's just awesome. no regrets. everything is phil.
Phil Collinโs is one of the GoaTs in drumming.
โWaka wakaโ - The charismatic voice, 2021.
krplus.net/bidio/c7aDm3Z8nI3QfHI Waka Waka ;)
Who knew Fozzy Bear would show up on the Charismatic Voice๐คฏ
Yay, finally something I haven't seen a lot of reactors do: Going down history lane, and having a blast from the past. Looking forward to more of that.
Phil is amazing. You need to do more. I saw him in Nov 2021 on the last Genesis tour. He has a degenerative disease which left him unable to play drums (his son played them) and nearly unable to walk. Despite all of that, he rocked hard and even seemed to gain strength throughout the concert. Many Genesis songs require him to put out as much or more emotion as he does on this one. I don't know how he did it. I'll never forget it.
"He shouldn't be able to do this...." Yeaaaaah. That's why he is greatness, A game level, one of the all time top performers.
I just read an interview the other day where Phil said he can't even hold drumsticks anymore... and that upset me in a way i can't explain
i just found that out. so sad. They said his 19 year old son will take over the drums.
There are live videos on KRplus from their current concert in Birmingham England
He was taping them to his hands at the end shows.
Me too!... Genesis was the first concert I went to and it was The Lamb Lies Down with Peter Gabriel and Phil Collins I lost it I absolutely lost it when they said he couldn't hold a drumstick anymore I really fell apart
Me too. Would have loved to be able to see this song played live. My parents went to see him in 1995 when he came to Australia and I wanted to go but I was 10 at the time so they said I was too young. He would have been in his absolute prime then.
Iโve heard this song thousands of times. This is the first time Iโve listened.
Well, this is Phil Collins, one of the greatest musical legends of all time. What do you expect!??
Sheโs right when she says โhow can he do it?โ Belting out the lines whilst banging on the drums perfectly. I think itโs because heโs singing about a poignant time in his life and this performance is raw emotion. Itโs storytelling at its best, relating the story of his breakup. Pure Theatre. It was like a best friend telling you about his very, very personal breakup.
Thank you Phil.
This must be one of the best live performances of all time.
Next to Dire Straits Alchemy Live, of course.
As a person who grew up in the 70's and 80's, you are getting a taste of why he was an iconic, almost demi-god level artist for us.
Yes! He's an amazing artist. ๐
There is no Dana, there is only Phil
Well he was the drummer and backing vocalist in Genesis for years until Peter Gabriel left, at this stage of his career it was something he had been doing for a long time.
Yes! He was VERY popular and I remember my dad and me jamming to his music in the truck as we drove to farm auctions. Itโs strange the memories that songs can trigger. ๐
Then you guys should check out The warning from Mexico, they sing in English but they have a lot of 70s 80s sound, and they're amazing at playing and composing great music
We've (Phil Collins fans) been waiting for Elizabeth to hear those drums...ALL OUR LIIIIVES!!!
I couldn't resist. I was waiting with baited breath to see the genuine reaction on your face, and oh man, you didn't disappoint. I remember the first time I heard Phil...it was after seeing the Tarzan movie as well, and specifically it was this song that introduced me to him. I was fairly new to rock at the time, and I was like 'is this metal??? THIS IS BADASS!!!' I have been a fan ever since, even followed Genesis down a rabbit hole after Disturbed covered 'Land of Confusion'. I had that same reaction you did, the first time I saw him sit at that set and just EXPLODE on those drums. I KNEW you'd be blown away, and I'm so glad!!! Phil deserves tons of respect for all his capabilities as an artist. ONE OF THE BEST SONGS EVER MADE, HANDS DOWN!! Soooo immensely happy that you reacted to this, but also enjoyed it as well.
This has always been one of very favorite songs of all time i grew up with this song. Iโm a 70 year old man that has gone through three divorces and this one really appeals to me. Thanks for sharing this song tonight.
If I close my eyes, this song is Crocket in a white Testerossa driving in the night
Ok gramps,,,,๐
Donโt feel bad buddy. Iโm 42 and thatโs all I see every time also because my uncle used to watch Miami vice all the time when I was young.
Got me right in the feels.
I still own the original Miami Vice soundtrack on CD, so I can definitely relate to your comment. lol
And we are talking about Don Johnson. I still haven't seen any new updated Miami Vice. Don't mess with the original version
Something about seeing Phil on the drums makes me want to cry. Such a shame he can't do it anymore. Also, big up to Leland Sklar on the bass ๐๐ป
ya time marches on in last tour i think his son played drums
I met Leland at a small venue in Sonoma county CA once
@@lg103 Yes, it was his son
Leland Sklar is one of the most amazing bassists in rock history. I am a huge fan of his work from Phil Collins to Toto to hundreds of other bands and albums.
@@MrREH1962he is a true bass wizard, even looks the part.
She backs the position I have always held since I started playing percussion 60 years ago that drummers are the true talent and geniouses of the music world.
Imagine being one of the best drummers in the world, and one of the best singers. Amazing.
Imagine being an elite world class drummer and singer at the same time.
Dang Phil
Take Me Home .. guaranteed to make me weep for my teenage years. The lost promise of a girl I never dared to ask out as I travelled home on a bus from a week's summer camp...
@@timothybaxter7392 shut up Tim
I've been playing drums and singing for fifteen or so years and singing and playing drums isn't all *that* hard. Once you've done it for a while, you know that your key words will fall on the downbeat and the answer words will fall on the up beat. Pretty simple, all in all. But what Phil does here is *vastly* more complex than that since he isn't playing a main rhythm line. He's drumming across the toms and almost all of the rhythm he's playing on the toms is on the off beat until he reaches the floor tom, which is where he anchors himself vocally. I've been trying to figure out how to do what he does in this song for about five years and I still can't pull it off. I have a massive amount of respect for the skill it takes for him to do what he does in this song. It's mind-boggling.
Spiderbait - dude can drum fast as hell while singing. Try, Yeah Oh Yeah by Spiderbait.
It donยดt look easy at all. People like me struggles whit scaling a banana :):) But if you say that, i would likely be as good as Phil Rudd when he was 25 years old:) :) :):) lmao
His work with Geneis for decades helped, with Peter Gabriel's singing ability teaching him. But he's a unique talent on top of that
Anybody can do it, but doing it well is a different story.
As a guy who played piano and guitar and started singing recently I always felt that singing and playing piano is the easiest, singing and playing guitar is harder, singing and playing bass is even harder, and singing and playing the drums is the most impossible one.
What you're watching is a consummate performer. One of the best.
Phil is a legend. Period.
Phil Collins is one of the greatest musicians and vocalists of our generation. And a large portion of young people have absolutely no idea who he is. Phil does not seem to get enough recognition or respect for his insane levels of talent. I am always happy to see anyone reacting to his work, hopefully you will inspire some people to delve more deeply into his work, it is truly a journey worth taking.
Are you serious? Some work from his solo career is very well recognized by people between 20 and 30, if only for his work with Disney. Then there's a generations wide appreciation for his work with Genesis both as a drummer and later as their singer.
It's sad that he's almost deaf and in poor health but when he picked up touring again a couple of years ago he performed for full venues (stadium size) all over the world. This man is a legend.
It makes me sad how the younger ppl donโt know him as well as us older ppl. It just seems like a rite of passage for music lovers. You must take a course, Phil Collins 101, before u become a music artist! ๐
@@daanvdwielen8760 I think he took a lot of flak (unnecessarily) because he was EVERYWHERE in the 1980s-1990s. Familiarity breeds contempt, or something. I think he's amazing and always have.
@@daanvdwielen8760 He is a legend but unfortunally only for you, me and many other children of the 70's and the 80's. But the younger generation (not everyone of course) really do not know the artists that our generations knew by heart. So I see a full grown-up man who reacts for the first time to ABBA, or the early Madonna, or Pink Floyd, or Dire Straits just to name a few. I am not even longer surprised there are people who do not know songs by Queen or WHAM! or Pet Shop Boys - something that would seem to me quite unfathomable yet a few years ago.
both phil collins and peter gabriel, two legends from the aptly named Genisis. To be fair though, I more gravitated to peter's work especially his work for the Last Temptation of Christ in the 90s. Excellent work.
He's been doing that his whole career. Even when he was singing with Genesis he was also their drummer. Phil Collins is truly talented in this respect as well as composing.
Very sophisticated musician. His drumming is some of rock's absolute best. Few are his equal.
@@rkress9349 I understand this lady is not familiar with Collins, but she had a tendency to fill the cavernous holes in her knowledge with guesswork: In the Air Tonight is not about PC's divorce but 'Face Value' of course is home to several songs that deal specifically with this event. PC has been using Drum Machines since the late 70s - this sound is not generated from a keyboard; Collins is a perfectionist in everything he does musically. He was a producer of many albums himself and understands the writing and recording process intimately. He played Fusion Jazz with Brand X; Prog with early Genesis; Sang on numerous other artists' work including John Martyn, Clapton and others. Any sounds heard on this live recording went past Collins' musical intelligence 'quality control checks'. She demonstrated to me the difference between a 'classically trained' music brain and an absolute creative genius like Collins. She spoke far too much for my liking - and not always adding any insight.
Phil Collins was originally the drummer, and only moved to singing when Peter Gabriel left Genesis.
@@MrCarlCampbell thatโs why itโs called a reaction mate, she did a great job for a first listen, if itโs not your cup of tea jog on....
@@chrisgoldston9755 Read the first nine words of my comment; I qualified everything I said afterwards - i then added a bit of comment on some of her guesswork/opinions. I have no real issue. Not sure why you got a bit grumpy - try Preparation H and a soft cushion. Just my reaction to your 'work', I hope that's ok?
The one thing I noticed was anger and pain on his face during the pure lyrics to just this look to joy at one point on his face while playing the drums. It was truly beautiful.
Donโt ever stop reacting to songs, because you have the most real expressions and truly real reactions. You can read every thought and emotion on your face. And you are so cute, and adorable the way u react. I canโt even explain it well enough, but I love the way you are in shock at what you are seeing. Your insight into the voice, and explanations of the vocal cords, the space in the mouth, the sounds and mechanical effects you hear, are very insightful. I know thatโs a lot of praise, but I watch lots of music reaction videos, and you are the best, hands down.
When you paused it at 17:12 I cried out "NOOOOO!!!!"
It'a not your fault. If you've never heard the song before, you couldn't have known you were interrupting one of the greatest beat drops in the history of music.
I did too. It was painful to be paused there.
If she would have just shut up and listen to the whole video and left her musical experience that she's trying to impress us with until after it was finished she wouldn't have blown it
@@sheag6200 You do know that people watch her videos for her musical experience and expertise, right? She focuses on the voice; that's the point of the videos.
@@susanmarie3425 understood but then she needs to wait till the end before she shoots her mouth off
@@sheag6200 maybe go be angry somewhere else just saying
I love the look she gave when she heard the drum break for the first time, and then realized he was playing and singing. We've all been in that exact moment. Her reaction is priceless.
Her reaction took me back to 1981 when I had the same response when I heard it for the first time. Thank you
Phil is a one off, a legend.
_Thatโs_ Phil Collinsโ superpowerโฆto be able to sing and _drum_ that way. He was singer and drummer for Genesis, as well as other groups.
I thought everyone in the world had heard this song. It's everywhere. That drum fill is so iconic.
Its called pretending.
@@SleepySeel Yeah... Probably. Didn't want to say it lol
this man is just a genius. the majority of his titles were recorded by him alone in his personal home studio where he plays all the instruments... he may not be people oriented, but his talent needs no one else...
The drum break in this song is so iconic, that Phil Collins has laughingly reckoned it will be on his tombstone when he finally passes and it won't need to mention his name at all. "Bedum, Bedum, Bedum, Bedum, Dum Dum"
In my opinion, Phil is one of the best drummer player ever. He is also a great composer. Miss your live performances Phil.
The looks on her face when he starts playing the Drums is priceless! How can he do it? Practice he's been doing longer then you've been alive!
I found this hilarious. I saw this tour live. I was sitting at the edge of me seat waiting for her to realize Phil is a unicorn when it comes to talent.
And this is so not Phil's top performance! Some of his older live shows he did the singing much better. But everyone gets old.
The percussion pattern sounds like a double paradiddle.
She's adorable !
the voice the facial expressions , the enthusiasm .
Love her
I was so excited when the drum part approaches
What a timeless piece
Love the detailed music reaction.
