Philip David Charles "Phil" Collins, LVO (born 30 January 1951) is an English singer-songwriter, drummer, pianist and actor best known as a drummer and vocalist for British progressive rock group Genesis and as a solo artist.
Collins sang the lead vocals on several chart hits in the United Kingdom and the United States between 1975 and 2010, either as a solo artist or with Genesis. His singles, sometimes dealing with lost love, ranged from the drum-heavy "In the Air Tonight", dance pop of "Sussudio", piano-driven "Against All Odds", to the political statements of "Another Day in Paradise".
Collins's professional music career began as a drummer, originally in a band called The Real Thing with Andrea Bertorelli, who later became his first wife. Collins played drums and shared lead vocals (with Brian Chatton) in Flaming Youth which recorded one album, (Ark II). In 1970, he took over drums for Genesis, which had already recorded two albums. In Genesis, Collins originally supplied backing vocals for front man Peter Gabriel, singing lead on only two songs: "For Absent Friends" from 1971's Nursery Cryme album and "More Fool Me" from Selling England by the Pound, which was released in 1973. Following Gabriel's departure in 1975, Collins became the group's lead singer.
[Verse 1]
Ballerina, trapped between the
Walls of her own home
Oh God, Kristina
Don't once think that
This madness is my fault alone
Now a nightmare's in the house
Still everyday's another chance
[Hook]
I'm on my way, I'm on my way
Let's get married, I'll buy a ring and then we'll
Consecrate this messy love
[Verse 2]
Spinning one beat, 'till I finally
Realize how busy I am
We're both so broken, done long hoping
Is that we'll stumble upon our love again
Just believe in me, Kristina
All these demons, I can beat them
[Hook]
[Bridge]
I caught you dancing quietly
It felt like being somebody else
Oh my friend, it seems like
Our love is too lovely for everyone else
