I always loved Phil Collins' music as my dad listened to it, but I never actually felt the words till I broke up with my missus. There's not one song by him I don't somehow relate to. At the end of the day, isn't that the mark of a true artist?
That song killings RAP... That is real music, That is great, like Beatles, Jhohn Lennon, Bruce Springsteen, Led zepplin, Eric Clapton... - They all greatest legend.
This song makes me soooo sad! This song is for Katie.....you were the best thing to enter my life and I will always cherish the time we shared together. I love you!
You are my sunshine, my only sunshine. You make me happy when skies are gray. You'll never know dear how much I love you.... Please don't take my sunshine away!
You are the greatest gift to have ever been in my life. If there is a God well please hear my prayers for this gorgeous, incredible, wonderful man! I love him very much. My prayer is that one day God will bring us back together.
I love you Paul with everything I have inside of me!
After I left this for you...i left work and grabbed my iPod and that was the song on it! Right now it is raining outside and on me. You truly are my soulmate and my life. You complete me in every way. Katie, Will you marry me?
There is a point at 5:24-5:26 where Clapton's guitar does actually "sing"....not saying that the rest of his playing here is nothing less than fabulous.
I always loved this video. The video's understatedly funny. The band has well-known musicians in it, and yet Jeffrey Tambor's character looks down on them all. I like how "Billy" is singing his heart out, picturing himself as a theatrical/movie star, and at song's end, the producer/director, with a wave of his hand, decides to cut the number.
Im trying to understand exactely the meanning of this " I Wish It Would Rain Down On Me " butt i cant , my english is werry poor , please explayn with other words if you can , i will really apreaciate
Im trying to understand exactely the meanning of this butt i cant , my english is werry poor , please explayn with other words if you can , i will really apreaciate .
Shiver me timbers!!! I didn't even know this was from Phil. I have been looking for it every where but couldn't remember the title. Thanks for upping. Beautiful!!!
Is it weird that this is a childhood song for me, even though I'm only 22. lol The feeling I get from this is similar to the feeling I get from watching an old nursery rhyme. Lovely.
Awesome Phil, you were so cool in the 80's and you whisked us into the 90's with this song and others in the album. Miami Vice's final season is really sad and i might make video with clips of it paired with this song.
I Wish It Would Rain Down, an clean my Soul and help me forget the past with all that Pain insite of me. But there are things that gone never disappear
Had this song stuck in my head for a couple days, so just HAD to check out this classic vid. EXCELLENT work by Phil, one of his all-time best songs ever:-D
I didn't know that. It felt strange already that Nathan East (being the main bass player during ...But seriously's recording) wasn't there... I can't imagine why, if they had 2 other really well-known bass players, any of them was in the vid, and a third one who didn't participate in the writting of the song took their place
theres a part that goes "cuz i know i never meant to cause you no pain, and i realize i let you down, but i know in my heart or hearts, i know im never gonna hold you again"
tune tune tune!!! what a classic!!

He he, you're right!
But I'm a guitar player, so naturally my focus goes to the instruments first.
And besides, it's one thing to mime a song, since you're really miming your own voice.
But pretending to play an electric solo on an acoustic guitar is of course impossible to do.
Well, not to pretend to do it, but to actually do it.
That's why it's sillier to fake guitar playing than singing. But it's still fun!
