Vocal Coach Reacts To Phil Collins - In The Air Tonight - Live - Ken Tamplin

[@gilbertocruz1683]

So much emotion in his voice

[@she_sings_delightful_things]

Another Phil vid?!?! Be still my heart! This was an absolutely fantastic channel on it's own, but learning he covered Phil....TWICE....has quickly made this my fav KZbin channel! ☝💯

[@kentamplin]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@TYinNH]

If this song comes on and your buddy doesn't play the air drums, get rid of them. You don't need that negativity in your life!! 5:36 is just an epic moment out of any song ever written.

[@deanrobbins8102]

AGREED!

[@brianfuller7691]

Phil Collins is a legend . He's an iconic drummer/songwriter/singer and one of the best live shows ever🤘

[@kentamplin]

Brian- He sure is!

[@jamespilkington7576]

he is a great actor aswell. see the movie buster. about the great train robbery

[@redskin4040]

Around here in the 80's you were allowed to like Phil Collins even being a metal head lol. Awesome.

[@TookMe20min2findThis]

Thanks Ken for covering Phil. He's my favorite artist not only because I love everything he does but most of all, because he's a very nice and simple guy. Last time I saw him was last year and he had to sing while sitting on a chair. Still a great voice though. I'm afraid that was my last Phil Collins show.

[@danastout36]

That was awesome! My Mom had that album (Face Value) when it came out and I played this song and Missed Again all the time wailing away on the couch like it was a drum set. I must have driven the downstairs neighbors crazy in that apartment. My 2 Sons were blown away by this song when I played it in the car when they were young. Thank you Ken, and God bless

[@TheCheeksMiller]

I think to Phil is a guy who knows his vocal range and capability and has really dialed in how to make the most of it.

[@kentamplin]

Ed Miller Well said. I would say something similar about David Gilmour.

[@kayleeriley3591]

Zackmire and Brent Smith from Shinedown have an acoustic think they do and they called Smith and Myers and they did a version of this song and it is awesome would definitely recommend listening to that❤

[@JSpoto-gy1qg]

Phil , is multi talented. Love him! This song is awesome! Peter was good, as Solo artist. But... no one can touch Phill Collins! He’s the best!!!

[@kentamplin]

Rock on!

[@pamelariker5525]

OMG, that drum drop (or whatever it's called) gets me every time. STUNNING!!!!

[@JorgeOstos]

Chester Thompson also on drums there. A great and interesting drummer... He played for Genesis, Frank Zappa, Weather Report, Ron Kenoly, and others. Thanks Ken.

[@marianclough8577]

The entire video is so wonderful. I hope those on here will look it up and watch it because by the time Phil hits the drums, you are so excited.

[@wynkoop2000]

My favorite Phil Collins song! Thanks for choosing it!

[@KellyMark]

Yet another great video and reaction Ken! Got to love Phil Collins man! Totally enjoyed like always :)

[@kentamplin]

Thank you so much, Kelly!

[@KellyMark]

@@kentamplin never a problem Ken :) always love your videos my friend!

[@KG-th3cr]

Phil is hands down my favorite artist of all time. Started listening to him in the 80's and still do to this day. Discovering the older stuff from Genesis was like finding buried treasure. I love prog rock.

[@jo-annebotha9609]

Phil comes a very close second to Freddy Mercury in terms of singing but certainly first in drumming! He's had a long and lustrous career, so great that he could! This is one of those iconic songs that will never go out of fashion.

[@TheShmoo123]

Just walking slowly, purposefully.....in linen.......I can feel it COMIN in the air tonight, love it 💛

[@kentamplin]

👍💜😀

[@simplysing]

Phil C. may not have a broad, big voice but with his exquisite, pinpoint resonance he doesnt need it. His tone, pitch and diction are impeccable as he hits all his front resonators in his facial mask. His tone is somewhat metallic sounding which suits the style of music he sings as well. Incredible voice.

[@KG-th3cr]

Very well said. There's nobody in all my life that I've heard more than Phil Collins. I wouldn't say I'm an "expert" or anything silly like that but it's nearly like you read my mind. He has a very specific tone and level to his voice and he hits it in a millisecond and never has to change anything. It's almost like an "auto-pilot." You are right on the money with everything you said and I absolutely adore Phil's vocals.

[@urb4nviking219]

Probably one of THE best Singers live EVER! Like Ken said, the dude actually sounds like he does on the album. Crazy man, seriously crazy.....Another great vid Mr. Tamplin!

[@mamymimma]

Awesome!

[@lorgrenbenirus]

It is hard to play drums and sing. But he's Phil Collins, he can do anything.

[@kentamplin]

Certainly not an easy thing to do, Longren!

[@allisonhamilton9481]

He was actually an actor first lol, so yeah he does everything

[@larryclark4297]

He wrote this song after his divorce I think it was 2004 this was alive in France

[@manuelruen]

Maybe for you it is. But for them it's probably easy :P

[@rofavilla]

Not easy indeed, but he has a long experience since back then in early Genesis, drumming and back vocal singing with Peter Gabriel on stage.

[@theresaessalhi2419]

Phil collins sounds amazing great song and vocals

[@bloomingaccents]

I saw Phil in concert at Indiana University 1983. It was wonderful. I was only 22! He definitely had an impressive stage presence. Really great video Ken!

[@quistunes]

How did I miss this one a couple of weeks ago? LOVE Phil Collins drumming & songwriting. He has great pitch & uses his unique voice to perfectly fit the songwriting. Speaking of Peter Gabriel (a sonic master), I'd love to hear your reaction to his unique voice & stage presence.

[@kentamplin]

quistunes . I don't know!! Thanks for your suggestion!

[@Nostaljack]

The bassist is the legendary Leland Sklar who's played with...well...everyone who matters. I agree with you totally about Phil's pitch. He didn't hit a sour note the entire time. Truly an underrated singer.

[@dmdtmdmdtm]

It matter for me! And this is not Simon philips on drums, but chester thompson, on the road with pc and genesis for almost 30 years

[@cstarv]

luckily Phil doesn't block his music. Leland Sklar got blocked playing a few cords on a song he originally played. too many older bands block, how do they think newer fans will find them if they block their music.

[@KG-th3cr]

@@kentamplin It's not like that for everyone. I grew up in the 80's and my intro to Genesis and Phil Collins was the album Invisible Touch which came out in 1986. It wasn't till much later that I listened to their earlier albums and discovered a whole different side to Genesis. I would describe a lot of their early music as madrigal-like and whimsical prog rock. It's like nothing else and it's absolutely fantastic.

[@nightHawk66]

@@KG-th3cr Ohh... Genesis is a musical journey and U never seems to be satisfied. U always find something U never heard before and, boy, it´s a journey.... Been a fan since 1981 and still gets tears or joy in my eyes wether i listen to Genesis, Phil Collins, Peter Gabriel, Mike and The Mechanics, Steve Hackett or anything that relates to Genesis.... Not many bad songs....

[@evhleppard]

Great performance, love it. Phil has a very unique voice, great stuff.

[@kentamplin]

[@scottemmonsmusic6001]

This song is a great example of how creative use of effects can magnify the impact of the song. On the original recording his voice had that very pronounced slap back delay, Daryl Stermer's guitar was way back in a hall and the the amazing massive gated reverb concert tom fill was just SO dramatic. Great stuff! Your breaking down of vocal techniques is so informative! Thank you

I loved Phil Collins, Genesis was my favorite group, still is! I still have a cassette tape of Genesis that was defective and totally forgot to bring it back to exchange it, oh well.... As far as I know Phil came out of retirement and his son plays the drums for him, been a while since I looked up whats going on with Phil Collins , great reaction Ken! just looked him up He is actually on his "Still Not Dead Yet, Live!" Tour

[@christianmorgan2647]

Awesome show you are running I don't or atleast try not to miss a show great work 10/10

[@kentamplin]

Awesome! 👍

[@SixGunLover]

Thanks for this Ken. I would really love to see you do one of your dedicated takedowns/medleys/analyses of Phil Collins and his work with Genesis - such an incredibly versatile voice that can run the gamut from the softest, most delicate mainstream pop with something like "One More Night" to some pretty insane face-melting rock sounds on a track like "Mama". There's one particular scream on the latter track that always blows my mind, after one of the choruses ("Now *I* can see you mama", from memory)

[@kentamplin]

👍

[@Del-Scent]

Great reaction. I enjoy your reactions. As a musician yourself you know whats up. Phil Collins just iconic is all I can say. Impressive sound for a live show, sounded just like the studio version with an awesome drum solo. Such a talented artist !!!!!

[@kentamplin]

He is, indeed!

[@rsireaper]

Phil Collins ft Eric Clapton - I wish it would rain down is my favorite song ever, Phil's vocal tone and emotion is absolutely incredible, and Eric Clapton truly makes the guitar sing and it harmonizes so well

[@nightHawk66]

There is a couple of great performances with Eric Clapton on his tour with Phil on drums. Check on YT. Awesome!!

[@RyderWestwood]

Good stuff! It's sad, he can barely walk anymore and can't drum because of health problems. Age sucks.

[@TSmith-ls1zq]

tHe GrEy MaN I guess you didn’t see the actual beginning of that video .... he walks on stage and straight to his drums. The proof is in the watching...then speak

[@Brekkik]

@@TSmith-ls1zq This performance is from "Finally... The First Farewell Tour", which released on DVD in 2004. In 2009, he reported that he was unable to play drums due to an operation to repair a dislocated vertebra in his neck and in 2016 he confirmed he was still unable to play with his left hand. In 2018, it was reported that he suffers from drop foot, which makes it difficult for him to walk. A little bit of research can go a long way if you put in the effort.

[@michaelmfwayne]

@@TSmith-ls1zq that video is old. He's confined to a chair now. Watch some recent performances.

Name a drummers/singers that can do what Phil Collins did: Levon Helm (The Band), Karen Carpenter (Carpenters), Don Henley (Eagles), Ringo Starr (Beatles), and many others! Phil can do anything behind those drums and sing at the same time!

[@artdogg50]

Actually there are a surprising lot of drummers who eventually became lead singers. Especially in soul music. I don't necessarily think it's that unique. I think the unique part is that once drummers get reluctantly pushed to the front stage as the lead singer, they rarely get the chance to really play drums anymore. And Phil doesn't only they play drums either. He has a had a regular drummer as a solo act and with Genesis for decades. He always kept a drum set on stage for himself so he could play certain songs or to battle with the other drummer. I always appreciated that about him.
