Notes: Hang in there! That is the message of this song in a nutshell. This slogan was put into practice in a humorous way in the music video for our current TotW. Phil Collins and his band play on the "S.S. Udio" until the ship sinks - which, however, is caused by the band playing too loud. The video was relatively expensive to produce at the time because it was shot in black and white, but Phil Collins and the band are highlighted in colour. Although it is the first track on ...But Seriously, it only appeared as the last single on the album in 1990. The single or maxi CD of Hang In Long Enough was available in various versions and with various remixes by Shep Pettibone, who is best known for his work with Madonna, Janet Jackson and the Pet Shop Boys. To reflect the character of the remixes, the single or maxi CD bore the song title in graffiti style with the colloquial spelling "enuff" (instead of "enough"). On ...But Seriously, Leland Sklar plays bass for the most part (as on the tour for the album); the only exceptions: Something Happened On The Way To Heaven and Hang In Long Enough. Here Nathan East was used as bass player. He had reportedly asked to be involved on a couple of tracks. Since the tour band plays in the video, Leland plays there, of course. |
