Phil Collins (And Other Genesis Types)
TomTomTelekom replied to DevonDeathTrip's topic in DeathList Forum
I grew up as huge Phil Collins Fan, and still I am. For me, he is definetely up there in the top 3 artists of all time. But makes me sad to see him these days It's NOT about his age, he is quite young compared to McCartney... It's about his condition. It really looks like he has not taken care of his health at all. I could be wrong and he has just been unlucky. But many people look and talk better at 70. And to me it seems a bit like he is not able to self-reflect and recognize his own limits. Wish him only the best!
