this video is the scariest video I've ever seen...

I'm amazed at the fact that the singing puppet actually looks like phil collins.

@colinbason Disturbed's version was the first one I ever heard too, until I went and searched Phil Collin's songs and found this and so many more. Only songs I really knew by Phil before was the Tarzan songs and I loved them so freaking much, well... also the songs I Don't Dance because my dad used to dance to that when I was younger and In The Air Tonight because... that's just an epic song. Who doesn't know it? lol

Still relevent now as it was then

Same old story; any time locals/indigenous people rise up and refuse to be bulldozed by (in this case blondies from Australia/South Africa) they are labeled as thugs, terrorists, etc. This is made even more ironic in this case considering what those same "blondies" did to the indigenous populations back in South Africa/Australia .

I love that lyric, "...My Generation will put it right, we're not just making promises we know, we'll never keep"

The Baby-Boomer Generation has done more to destroy society than any other generation and has broken more promises than anyone else....hahah!
