Phil Collins
Image
I'm much happier just to write myself out of the script entirely.
Phil Collins
Image
And I would like to marry and have more children. I would like to try and do it right.
Phil Collins
Image
I think I was the best drummer!
Phil Collins
Image
This stupid sensitivity! But then women like sensitivity.
Phil Collins
Image
Each thing leapfrogs. I do a Genesis project - like now, we're just finishing off an album - and then by the time the album is doing its thing, I could do nothing or I could do a film.
Phil Collins
Image
You can wipe off that grin, I know where you've been, it's all been a pack of lies.
