omg this sends chills down my spine and i have what i call a musical orgasm, which is 1000x's better than any sexual orgasm. its like u can feel the music taking you over and the climax your whole body becomes overtaken with endorphins causing you to spazz out \m/
Amazing! I remember Easter Sunday as a kid with my father and mother.. having our dinner on the front deck... Hearing this brings me back to that very moment. RIP Dad
One of the most gifted artists ever out there, playing drums (so do I) and piano. And a voice as unique as it gets. Too bad he is done, would love to see him solo again.
you ever notice how when modern artists sing their songs live they never sound the same on their CDs, but like eminem, phil's songs sound exactly like his CD
Best drum break ever. You here it and you know what song you are listening to. Gonna miss Phil and his great voice and drum playing. Enjoy retirement Phil.
i seriously doubt there is a single person that likes this song that doesn't air drum, its such an intense fill, just have to do it, sometimes even do it just for the fun it without the song on and make the drum noises, and just have to sing a few bars of the song after that, then back to the fills lol
My dashboard rattles everytime I play the drum solo with Phil in the car. He makes you sing and drum along with him. My whole family knows its coming when this song comes on. Best Ever
Im a you kid who likes rap rnb etc but if i could see anyone live it would be him he has got a great voice and the drums are just the best and how he walks around the stage the atmosphere must be great and the cabreys advert with the gorrila is me fav advert its astonashing :)
His voice is one big eargasm to me and that is no lie. I wonder if it's wrong for a girl to be turned on when he plays the drums as he sings.... Dammit what is wrong with me.
@mimicrawford I believe he's more like, why didn't I go naked, because people actually wanted to come for music, not the celebrity... which roughly translates to "because FUCK YOU, that's why"
IS IT WRONG I GOT GOOSEBUMPS, THE HARDEST BONER IN MY LIFE AND MY NIPPLES STIFFENED UP LIKE FROZEN SKITTLES AND I AM A MARIIED MAN WITH 3 SONS. ..FUK IT !@!
I Love this song, but in this video the sound and image are not syncronized. This probably happened when transcoding the original to a compressed format.
Great song to close your eyes to and flail your arms about in an attempt to get every drum hit and cymbal crash Phil does... I fail this but have fun trying.
@413xxx86 Your comment made me choke on a sip of coffee, so thanks a lot! :) You're right, I always plan to keep my cool with this song, but when the drums kick in I just have to flail my arms about! Flail and fail--what fun! hehe
I quite enjoyed this version - how he comes up from beneath the stage and the little intro woodblock percussion sounds. At 46 he was still very capable of belting it out.
I've faved this song on alot of other people who've posted these from live tours and no matter what I jsut cannot get tired of it. Phil Collins is awesome!
this song rocks the shit but he can't be playing them drums u see him mashing the bass peddle like shit and u cant even hear the bass. then u see the backup drummer =/ gr8 song
I actually have this recording on VHS, store bought, and I will be eventually getting the DVD version . This is probably the best live concert I've ever viewed... Phil's the Man ! Notice how his drum set comes rising up out of the center of the stage right before he walks up!
I actually have this recording on VHS, store bought, and I will be eventually getting the DVD version . This is probably the best live concert I've ever viewed... Phil's the Man !
This was a well-organized musical event. I appreciate how the management team set up the lighting for each musician, especially Phil. It really intensified the whole experience; I wish I was there for that. Phil, the voice of a forgotten angel!
me queda decir que es muy exelente trabajo de sonido y la cancion en general la primera vez q la escuche fue en la pelicula de ton cruce en ''negocios sucios'' cuando esta en el tren con su novia waooo en sueño lo que pasa dentro ehh jaja y de fondo esta cancion :D jejejejej....
Just amazing both vocals and drums. I go crazy when the drums start as it's been said already, also I fly away when hearing "in the Aaaaaaaaaaair tonight" in one of the last refrains.
Love this live version - even better than the original. I think I first heard this song when it was used so effectively in "Risky Business" (great movie too!)
Des de que era niño tengo un sueño. Cierro los ojos y escucho en silencio. Veo el mejor club del mundo, lleno de gente, a oscuras, y con "in the air tonight" cerrando la sesión.
Gracias arbatowski, por todos tus videos. Gran concierto.
Gracias Phil por ésta, y por todas tus otrs canciones.
Haha, I bet the guy in the white shirt at 4:18 is thinking " god, what's with all the people clapping around me? they're ruining the performance for everyone!"
I love the full band version so much more power and texture....it's humbling to see live how good they really sound. Consistently Genesis sounded even better live than on recording, which lets face it is all too rare anymore.
See em live @ the FFFT in Munich and i remeber me was yesterday! A hot Summernight and the Sounds fills the Area of the Olympic Stadion! A Nice look back in Time! Thats so great id never forget! THX for a the great Job
Pokemonmaster2203...i shall point that you should get the facts right first...this is pure coincendence, Phil Collins in an interview actually commented on this b******t and said that its not true...it was just a rumour...so you get the facts right too
actually the song is directed towards a guy that met up with collins at a friends cabin. there was bad weather yet this guy encouraged collin's friend to go out on the lake in a boat against phils advice. the friend drowned. collins first played this song when that guy was at a concert and focused a spot light on him. its very personal. look it up, it also explains the life preservers on the stage
