Phil Collins
Hits

THE REVIEW

A collection containing the most beautiful tracks of an artist who made music history, through Genesis and beyond.
Phil Collins gathers all his historic “Hits” in a single CD. A true best-of, with the aim of making old fans relive the many emotions he has offered throughout his long career, both as a solo artist and with Peter Gabriel's band (until 1974).

Collins, besides being a good actor with 23 films under his belt, has been one of the most influential drummers in rock history. A genius who has recorded countless pop-rock songs, with an extraordinary inventive spirit and that unique zest for life.

The 16 tracks on the album, released in 1999, will give you that surge of happy energy, which is sometimes missing, as well as enchant you with their beauty. Songs like “Another Day in Paradise”, “True Colors” or “One More Night”, will evoke incredible romantic moments. “Something Happened On The Way to Heaven” and “Dance Into the Light” will make you go wild with joy once again! You'll go back to dancing like 20 years ago with “Two Hearts”, “You Can’t Hurry Love” and “Sussidio”. You'll rediscover “Easy Lover” with Phil's magnificent voice, as he plays and sings the drums with his usual spectacular touch and creativity. In some tracks, the ingenious Collins also plays the keyboard and in “Both Sides of the Story” even all the instruments. The now 52-year-old, originally from Chiswick near London, still continues to offer us soft happy music and to move us with lyrics of extraordinary poetry.

“These are things one never forgets.”
