PHIL COLLINS - consistent five tracks

Thelawnmower · Dec 12th 2023

Following on from my Genesis question....

We’ve had lots of great polls about albums and tracks and I always find it hard to pick a top 1, 5, 10 or whatever it is. My top ten changes over time. But there will always be five songs in my top ten Phil

Easy Lover - great pop music and drumming

In the Air- picks itself

This must be love - a superb little love song

You Can't Hurry Love - sometimes a cover version is well worth doing

I missed again - shoes his skill as a writer and arranger and great horns and drums

Beyond that I have about eight to ten that would take up the remaining five slots

So, which five would always be in your top ten?
