His best song, imo, is "I don't care anymore".

[@michaelsweat9044]

Phil Collins has been a professional drummer for over 40yrs. Unfortunately for his fans, he has retired due to his age and medical issues. He is currently 73yrs old.

[@aleclewis9123]

But fortunately for him, two of his sons, Simon and Nic, are carrying on his legacy by being equally amazing drummers in their own right. 😊 Simon with his projects Sound Of Contact and e-Molecule as well as his solo career and Nic with his bands Better Strangers and The Effect. 🙂 I've met Nic at an event in England last Christmas. A really nice guy.

[@thepragmatic6383]

Phil Collins is part of this generation of artists with whom I had the chance to grow up. And Wonder MommaOG knows how to pay homage to them in an ever-so-grand way.

[@movieman1556]

I close my eyes and I'm transported back to the mid eighties, I'm 24 years old, and Miami Vice is blowing me away with this song. Glorious times❤

[@robynhurley5119]

Me too i was 19 in mid 80s

[@karlsmith2570]

That's actually what comes to mind for me, too

[@geekverve]

Look. I've been watching KZbin for a LOOONG time, and I probably spent way too much time doing so still. That said, seeing people's reactions to Phil dropping this iconic drum fill during this live performance is still one of my favorite things to watch.

[@mommabear7845]

I actually cried because this was absolutely phenomenal ❤

[@WonderMommaOG]

💬I know, I know. I did another live version first. 😅 In general, I prefer studio versions of most songs over live versions, unless I am in the same room with the artists. I plan on doing the studio version but the live version is probably one of the best live versions of a song I’ve seen on video. I want to wait a bit to do the studio so there are more reactors to use. 99% of the reactors have heard this song, but have not seen the live performance. That was another factor in why I did the live version first. This edit was particularly tough due to the audio waveform (not sure if that’s the technical term) was difficult to match up in the last half of the song. Plus I used a fair amount of different reactors. Enjoy! ONTO THE NEXT! 💜

[@pukkoku]

Thanks for all of your work WonderMommaOG, you're one of the best in this arena. You and Derek Brooks are my favorites. Appreciate you!

[@kevinakers8872]

Phil Collins is a treasure.

[@correctlyrics]

The drum fill... Phil made this fill and another fill. (At his home studio...along with other parts of the song) When he went to the main studio to mix the song, he grabbed all the tapes of the different tracks he had recorded. He looked at the 2 drums fills and didn't think either fill was special. He just decided to take the first one. This is what we got. Phew.

[@TomZacchini]

This is one of these songs that last forever, till the end of all times ❤

[@dionshare7103]

Oh yes. Absolutely. Someone had to do this. And the live version too. When Phil Collins walks around to the drums and goes off on them.

[@ninajones1175]

It’s awful getting old. I am 57 and have watched as these absolute LEGENDS have become unable to perform or passed. They don’t make artists like this anymore.

[@streghewitch77]

I truly believe that there are people out there who do make great music. Music like this where they don't use autotune, play their own instruments and write their own songs. I just think they don't get record deals anymore. It's much easier to control an artist you have created then it is to control an actual artist. The handpick these people and create for them a public identity, a facade that is easily marketable. With auto-tune and music sampling, anyone can appear to be musically talented

[@diamondstud322]

Chills every time…I can’t think of any other song that conveys such a clear sense of menace (in a good way), and this live version is exceptional. So sorry PC’s health has forced him to retire from performing, but at least we can still enjoy this video. Hope he is able to spend time with loved ones and enjoy the time he has. Great job, WMOG! ❤

[@jhood758]

So glad you did this live version. I’ve seen Phil Collins and Genesis both. To see this live was simply amazing. Brought back the feelings and anticipation of what everyone watching this was about to experience!

[@paulwebster3417]

This was a good song when it was first released. Two words that made it iconic, Miami Vice!

I just want to say that after seeing the compilation of reactions to this song has made me appreciate Phil even more which I didn’t think was possible. Thank you Phil. You are a legend. My heart sends you much happiness

[@Scorpius65]

Being a man of this generation that the song came out in. I could not count the many times I have heard this beautiful iconic song play Phil Collins. And I have seen every one of these reaction videos individually. I have to say you edit them together very nicely. But the best reaction I've ever witnessed was it when I was at work one night security for a very large chain of grocery store. And I was up on the bridge looking at security monitors best people came in walking through the store doing their shopping is couples families individuals. I also was able to choose the music being played and this was one that happened to play. And if you know this song you know the drum drop. It is legend to this song alone. And I kid you not, when it came up, every single bro , which had to be at least seven.. all dropped what they we're doing. In one case let go of his entire basket of goods... And proceeded to knock out an air drum 🥁 in whatever aisle they were in. All of them in unison the Phil Collins. It was glorious to witness. And I knew right then and there this song was legend. And to see this compilation 40 years later gladly proved me right. Rock on.

[@lindazee]

That's a one-in-a-million type of moment! I can almost feel it from how you described it. Thanks for sharing.

Thank you Wondermomma ❤...you once again hit my music life journey...I remember when it came out ...I loved it immediately...but there is something about this live version and build up...that is even more haunting to me...its like he knew this may be the last time he could physically do this song...you can feel the pain...Wow!!! Love to you for choosing this astounding live version! 💕

[@irishroverinflorida5822]

Thank you, thank you, thank you! Another bomb dropped by the "Momma." No one does it better!!!

[@dadosamac]

Phil Collins was originally drummer for the Genesis band. Once lead singer left the band. They start looking for the new singer . Then Phil stepped in . They never heard him sing before, once they heard him sing the rest of it is a history we all knew. Go Phil ❤

[@Makai77]

Almost every single one of us from GenX knows this song absolutely blew up on Miami Vice- circa 1981. Fun fact: This song is about the lingering tension caused by the divorce of Phil Collins and his first wife. These negative feelings were "In The Air," and affecting not just the couple getting divorced, but the entire family. Urban Myth: When Collins was a young boy, he witnessed a man drowning someone, but was too far away to help. Later, he hired a private detective to find the man, sent him a free ticket to his concert, and premiered the song that night with the spotlight on the man the whole time.

[@RobynHurley-zp9sh]

Love how you put up the name of the reactor when they are on screen. AR, BP, and Elizabeth are always on top of reactions!

[@sthori01]

I’m confused that all of these reviewers (especially the majority who have heard the song before) are mind blown that he’s the drummer. Phil Collins is first and foremost a drummer and producer. He was Genesis’ drummer from 1971. This, his first solo effort, came out in 1980. How, in 43 years has it escaped so many that he’s a drummer, and a revered one at that. He pioneered the drum sound of the 80s and 90s. That said, I have to admit that the “he plays drums???” reveal is what makes these reactions compelling to me. Maybe liner notes (poured over as the album spun on the turntable) are the lost gems of a bygone era. They were meticulously written and actually imparted knowledge to the listener that’s overlooked today.

[@maroone124]

I honestly really appreciate you doing the live versions first! I'm also someone who usually prefers studio versions, but your videos really help me gain a new appreciation for the live renditions, along with the energy and vibes from the reactors! Keep up the amazing work :)

[@WonderMommaOG]

I love this! Thank you for letting me know that. I am really set on the studio versions too but through watching reactions have learned to appreciate many live performances.

[@chantalmassicotte3934]

I remember when this came out, my sister and I were laying on the living room floor with headphones listening to this full blast, eyes closed, not realizing there was a tornado happening outside. Once the song ended, we opened our eyes to blackness. We ran to the yard to see a tornado throwing our patio furniture in the pool, a tree being uprooted and my dad's shed door coming off. I will never forget that power...both the song and that storm!

[@WeNeverHadForever]

I remember while growing up, the lady across the street from where I lived would give me a ride to school sometimes, and she would always play this. Didn't know he was the drummer. Also never paid attention to the lyrics until this video. Absolutely haunting. Thank you for your hard work and for sharing it with us.
