Hey guys If you're newer to the channel you probably haven't seen my face on here before! I'm Rere's brother, I haven't uploaded on here for a while but will be a more frequent face on the channel! If you go back to earlier reactions you can find me and Rere's duo reactions. feel free to drop me any suggestions below!

[@brianwalker5937]

Was just going to comment that y'all should go back to duo reactions. Don't get me wrong, I appreciate this and your other solo reactions, and Rere's too, but I tend to like your duos. If scheduling or logistics is a problem, maybe you should at least do the really big ones together (like this one). I know there are a few that y'all did separately and we get two reactions, but I am drawn to reactions with duos because of the reaction together. Hard to put a finger on why.

[@RNDReacts]

@@brianwalker5937 I get you 100%, I watch a lot of reactions to Tv shows and always prefer duo / group reactions (as I enjoy watching multiple people react, and also enjoy discussions and having multiple perspectives) We’ll definately bring back the Duo reactions. We’re gonna get a new audio interface aswell which will allow us to connect 3-4 microphones + headphones so that we can do the occasional group reaction aswell (perhaps bring our other brother and sister on every now and then)

[@Reba-123]

Just wanted to say .. that it would be perfectly okay to google artists when you do reactions as that would give you a bit of background on them ..

[@RNDReacts]

@ thanks! Sometimes I do, in quite a few vids I’ll have a google search after listening to the song to get a bit of context and background on the artist (more so with bands to see the different members and such), but I’ll certainly do that more as it does help alot

[@Reba-123]

Phil Collins …live version of I Don’t Care Anymore another song about his divorce and boy, he is not happy … Genesis Home By The Sea ….Mama…invisible Touch… Follow you follow me …I can’t dance …. There are many more but that’s a start

[@petricaangold5000]

My God!!! You are such a handsome manv😊 great smile. Brilliant performance by Phil Collins. xx

[@sliceofheaven3026]

A lot of younger people dont realize how influential and successful Phil Collins actually was during his career.

[@RNDReacts]

As an aspiring musician I felt insanely inspired seeing / listening to this all these years later, dude is a legend! and extremely skilled both vocally and as a drummer, it was a lovely surprise to see him switch from vocals to drums in the last half of the song

[@davidtaylorbfd]

At his peak the biggest star in the world.

[@Vee1music-lover]

Best live performance in the world! Can’t stop watching people react to this! Damn it was good to grow up during a time when so many epic musicians were doing their thing! Btw, we ALL played air drums when this song came on the radio✌🏻😎

[@maryrini8719]

I was lycky enough to see him three times!

[@396Cap]

Phil did his studio version in 1981. This live performance was done in 2004. Phil is still king.

[@kbrewski1]

Phil is one of the best drummers of the last almost 60 years. He started as the drummer for the progressive rock group Genesis in 1971, when Peter Gabriel was the lead singer. When Gabriel left Genesis to pursue a solo career in 1975, Genesis auditioned dozens of singers to be the lead singer. They weren't satisfied so Phil said "why don't I give it a go". Phil had sung backup and harmony vocals to Peter Gabriel. He obviously knew the new material they had already written, and after singing a few songs, the other band members were convinced he could step right in as lead singer. Genesis then toured with Phil up front singing, with a 2nd drummer playing behind him. Their dual drumming duets became legendary (Genesis did a lot of instrumental music which Phil drummed on). Phil also was in the progressive jazz rock fusion band Brand X playing drums as a side project in the late 70s. He then started his solo career in 79 and 80 parallel to Genesis. He is simply one of the most talented singers/songwriters/drummers/musicians ever.

[@rk41gator]

Isn't he amazing? Phil Collins is an accomplished drummer. I love how you appreciate the 'abstract elements' of his music and performance. Even the stage is sparse and gives space! His concert videos are amazing entertainment. If you like abstract and synth sounds you will LOVE Genesis. Before he took over vocals he sang BACKUP to Peter Gabriel, another singer you must find. This performance takes your breath away. I love his little bow at the end. His quality and intensity is so true on all his work. This IS about betrayal. While on a very long tour, with his wife and two young kids at home, she left him with the guy working on their house. He followed her to Canada to work it out but no go. When he got back to London he sat in his house brooding and writing music. I think he wrote this AT the guy (not his wife), maybe fantasizing a conflict. Check out his first album 'Face Value'.

[@dagmar.6954]

Great live version! Phil Collins is best known as the drummer/singer of the rock band Genesis in the 70's & for his solo career. He has had so many great hits such as "Another Day In Paradise", "I Don't Care Anymore", "Against All Odds", "One More Night", "Sussudio", "Take Me Home", "Two Hearts", "A Groovy Kind Of Love", "I Wish It Would Rain Down", "You Can't Hurry Love" etc.

[@kbrewski1]

No one thwacked those rolling tom toms better than Phil.This song made "gated reverb" drumming the drum sound of the 80s. See also Phil playing drums on Peter Gabriel's great song INTRUDER from his MELT album. See also Genesis' MAMA.

[@timhmetal3499]

Guess ya didn't know he was a world class drummer in Genesis before he ever sang lead vocals. After Peter Gabriel left Genesis, Phil took over lead vocals.

[@RNDReacts]

I did not know that! Fascinating stuff, super dope that he’s multi skilled and extremely good at both

[@JoDean1545]

Phil Collins is the absolute GOAT!!! Love him, he never had a bad song 😊

[@anitawright7169]

Phil Collins is an icon singing an iconic song. He wrote this song about his divorce. He is amazing! It is very difficult to sing and play the drums at the same time and he does it with ease! Love your reaction!

[@rk41gator]

Check out Collins singing ABACAB live from Wembley (1986). It rocks and Phil's drumming is on fire.

[@Reba-123]

Phil also started out as a child actor in the stage musical as the Artful Dodger … he also played the lead in the movie Buster … about one of the criminals who took part in the Great Train Robbery in the UK in the 1960s

[@5ft15jodi]

Phil once said he is a drummer who can sing a little. He is amazing at both. I used to play this on my way home from work just to release the stress of the day. I, of course, was air drumming in my car.

[@V12BenzAMG]

I saw this same performance in Florida on his First Final Farewell Tour and the entire concert was amazing!

[@kbrewski1]

React to "I Don't Care Anymore" Live at Perkins Palace 1981. Another intense song written about the same time as this one.

[@janturley949]

If you notice the other drummer(Chester Thompson) is drumming in sync with him- genius

[@nadinechehine3297]

Legend❤❤❤

[@TheAppaloosa14]

I was 18 in 1990 Through the 80.s and 90’s he was huge. Check out the movie American Psycho, Patrick Bateman loves Phil Collin’s

[@FUBAR1986]

Phil Collins was the drummer for Genesis. Saw them in concert Giants stadium…. Phil Collins also played drums in a concert with none other than BB King, Albert King, and Stevie Ray Vaughan how’s that for being in the business? ☮️❤️🙏🌎🌏🌍🇺🇸❤️☮️

[@rk41gator]

The dude grew up on R&B! We can hear it in his music.

[@willbiles6033]

Great reaction! Phil Collins’s is one of the all time great performers. If you like drummers as lead singers then take a look at any song by a little group called the Eagles. Masters class!

[@RNDReacts]

Thanks! I do have a reaction to ‘The Eagles - take it easy’ (but a lot of people told me I should be careful reacting to them, as often times those videos get blocked ! Which I don’t want for this channel)

[@Almcosta25]

@@RNDReacts Welcome back! I would also suggest a group called "The Band", also the drummer is (was) one of the main singers. Great reaction!

[@petterhansson7312]

And Roger Taylor of Queen is a great singer, too!

[@vickib5579]

Please try reacting to The Eagles Hotel California Live 1977. There are many reactions to it on KZbin, so you may be able to post without it getting blocked. It's a great performance and the video has nearly 500,000,000 views! @RNDReacts

[@PB...]

We can see a classic scene with this song, in the first episode of TV show "Miami Vice" (in 1984)

[@belindafallon2509]

Please watch "Mama" live at Knebworth....its awesome

[@cocobean666ful]

You got “Eagles “ the singer star “ Hotel California “ from the start 👌

[@PaulaThompson-x9w]

Probably my favorite live performance. Phil was the drummer for the band Genesis. When singer Peter Gabriel left the group in the late 70's, i believe it was, Phil took ove as lead and was still the drummer. Phil left the group to go solo in the mid 90's.

[@RNDReacts]

Understandable! this man is insanely skilled to do what he did in this performance, what other songs from Phil Collins would you recommend listening to?

[@PaulaThompson-x9w]

@@RNDReacts I have always liked his song " Sussudio". I can't help but want to dance when I hear it .

[@kbrewski1]

​@@PaulaThompson-x9w Aaaargghh!

[@Wishes890]

I love how the audience is perfectly quiet until at 2:05 the drums start and then they go!!

[@kbrewski1]

Actually it's Daryl Steurmer's first guitar lick which is the first big moment. There are no drums at 2:05, the crowd reacted to the lights and seeing Phil.

[@lovesmusic0845]

If you love drummers that sing, check out Hotel California by The Eagles. Don Henley is another Drummer who sings.

[@michelegreen6879]

Phil describes himself as a drummer who can sing a little.

[@Mikey-DiLo]

Great reaction to this epic performance!

[@Prozak63]

Brilliant reaction! 💯🔥🤙🏼🍻

[@mztweety1374]

This is one of the greatest breakup songs I've ever heard along with -sail on -The Commodores -Go your own Way -Fleetwood Mac -I hate everything about You -Three Days Grace -ain't gonna miss you when you're gone- Prince.

[@brianharding200]

Accompanied by the amber liquid in order to to appreciate an almost biblical performance by Phil I was with you all the way thank you for sharing this my man

[@allengray5748]

Actually Phil sings as well (as well is 2 words BTW) and plays drums Very Well!! There was a strange rumor about the song and years later he put it to rest word for word crazy enough. Rumor he seen someone watch another person drown and later gave this person front row seat for this song. Great Reaction! Peace 🕊️☮️♾️😎🎸🤟🏼

[@allengray5748]

Part II 😅 YES!! The Drum "Phil's"!! ☮️

[@בלהאלגריסי]

ביצוע מדהים🤘🤘🤘🤘אהבתי את התגובה שלך👍👍👍🫶🫶

[@terrylandess6072]

Actually when Peter Gabriel left Genesis and Collins took over lead vocal duties we asked: "Sings as well?"

[@madman3446]

There’s God…and there is this performance

[@schmedrake5429]

They always start watching an old bald guy with a good voice. Then they realize they're watching the GOAT.

[@ozzyprogdomino8815]

Phil Collins is a total legend. He is incredibly talented and has massive catalog of songs as a solo artist and as the singer and drummer of the band Genesis. I recommend Genesis “home by the sea” live at Wembley kzbin.info/www/bejne/mqOYhqCopZqdiMksi=Bw2OM3cKRs7j3wIm

[@jamesgreenhow108]

Why are so many people surprised that drummers can play and sing at the same time?? Britains child phemom NANDI BUSHELL has been doing it since the age of 8.

[@RNDReacts]

I’m surprised because it’s a very difficult thing to do, I play piano, but to sing while each hand is doing different timings and then to sing notes outside of those timings is extremely difficult, so I’ve gotta give Phil Collins props for this, aswell as the other drummers + singers

[@izbo10]

Cause singing and drumming go naturally against what you should be doing for either. They don’t mix well without great body control

[@Theresa-lp9xd]

He's speaking of not saving the man from drowning who was having an affair with his wife and he caught them. Great reaction!

[@kirktennyson612]

Good call I thought that he was talking about how he felt about his Wife! But thinking about it you might have a good point.

[@jamescrane2156]

House of Pain - Jump Around (Official Music Video). Hip hop party music from 1992.

[@spiller8463]

Не знаю чому,але мені подобається дивиьись реакції людей на цей виступ.

[@Reba-123]

Phil Collins is only one of 3 artists to have sold over 100 million records as part of a group and solo …the other 2 are Michael Jackson and Paul McCartney

[@pamelariker5525]

If you ever get the chance, you should watch Phil Collins doing a drum duet with Chester Thompson during a Genesis concert at Wembly (I think). kzbin.info/www/bejne/jJvOk3qIadWjebssi=gJM-PfbQjonI-urK

[@Mikey-DiLo]

Please react to some more Queen. React to Somebody to Love, live at Montreal 1981, White Queen live at Hammersmith Odeon 1975, Under Pressure live at Wembley 1986 to start. You won’t be sorry.

[@RadioJammor]

Not sure I care for all the little additions there are to the original tune in this live version. I can imagine this being divisive for people who like the song. Not saying this is bad, or anything like that, but for me it feels a little too removed from the original. Now that you've heard this, I would suggest listening to the recorded version. This song is incredibly atmospheric and conjures up cinematic images in your head. This was not lost on Michael Mann, who when making his 80s TV show, Miami Vice, used this song in an incredible driving sequence before a showdown. The song was perfect for it. And Phil later made a guest appearance in the show. For other Phil songs, I would suggest the big songs from his albums, Face Value or from Hello, I Must Be Going. I would particularly suggest "Do You Know, Do You Care?" from the latter album, for the atmosphere you get from it, and again, the recorded version is recommended. PS The song was written when Collins was going through a divorce, but he has wisely left the song open to interpretation.

[@RNDReacts]

Thanks for the feedback (of course I haven’t heard the original studio version), how does this version differ to the studio recorded version?

[@RadioJammor]

@@RNDReacts The arrangement is a little different. I can understand if you do a song over and over wanting to freshen it up, but I think he played with the iconic sound of this one a little too much for my personal liking, at least. You're best listening to the original studio version for yourself. The fact that the audience isn't there in itself makes such a difference to the atmosphere of this one. *After* you do listen to the studio version, here's the Miami Vice clip. The problem with it is that it lacks the full context of the episode, but it still gives you a fair idea of how it was used in the show. kzbin.info/www/bejne/Y5KwdK2In5iGr8ksi=b2q_tIFmYc641M-K

[@carolmingo-craft9312]

This story is about his wife cheating on him, true story. O. G . AMAZING ❤❤❤❤❤❤

I love how you say "In The Air Tonight". (what is your 'accent'?) Phil is an animal on drums. Perhaps a gorilla though smaller. LOL

[@RNDReacts]

@@rk41gator haha I’m from “Birmingham” in England, so I have a “Brummie accent”, so that would be the same as Ozzy Osbourne or if you’ve watched “Peaky Blinders” a more subtle version of their accent

[@rk41gator]

[@iamjbob]

He wrote this song while he was divorcing his wife

[@kirktennyson612]

Yes He wrote this number about one of his Ex wife's she really must have ticked him off at some point!

[@susanboles5587]

Was written after his divorce.

[@jamescrane2156]

You may want to wait until videos are completely over before cutting them off, even if there’s just 5 or 10 seconds left. You missed the roaring crowd and the young woman crying. Not complaining, just a suggestion.

[@RNDReacts]

Thanks James I’ll make sure to do that so I don’t miss anything!

[@kbrewski1]

The extra video stuff you added on to Phil's live video was unnecessary and demeaned the real thing.

[@russellbywater4648]

An excellent review my fine friend. So much talent packed into such a small body. I mean him, not you. I'm not suggesting you have a small body. No, not at all. I'm a bit confused tonight. Sorry. I thought 'In the air tonight' was about COVID but apparently not. It took my mind off Trump winning again for 20 minutes and I thank you for that. Do something else.
