More quotes by Phil Collins
I'm writing new songs for a Broadway version of Tarzan, which is very interesting. I think what I learned from the Brother Bear score side of things, I've brought into the new Tarzan songs. Thinking outside just guitar, bass, drums and keyboards.
Phil Collins
I just figured if I'm going to call myself a songwriter throughout my life, then writing for most genres of music is something I should at least attempt.
Phil Collins
When destiny calls you, you've got to be strong. I may not be with you, but you've got to move on.
Phil Collins
It's actually come as quite a shock to learn just how many people don't like me.
Phil Collins
Love can make you do things that you never thought possible
Phil Collins
God is a spa-bath of water and we are all individual bubbles
Phil Collins
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
Prog rock, with a little good taste, is ok. I tried to bring some of it into this century, I guess.
Phil Collins
The day Tarzan opened in London, I sat in a hotel room and discussed the project in detail.
Phil Collins
That's going to be on my headstone: 'He came. He wrote 'In the Air Tonight.' He... died.'
Phil Collins
Deep inside us we're not that different at all.
Phil Collins
Everything has added up to a load that I'm getting tired of carrying. It's gotten so complicated. It's the three failed marriages, and having kids that grew up without me, and it's the personal criticism, of being Mr. Nice Guy, or of divorcing my wife by fax, all that stuff, the journalism, some of which I find insulting.
Phil Collins
And I would like to marry and have more children. I would like to try and do it right.
Phil Collins
The answer is inside your head it's easy to find if you take it logically.
Phil Collins
I didn't become a commercially successful artist by design, and actually I think that commercially successful just means, if you analyse it, that a lot of people like you. It's become a dirty word, and I don't necessarily think it needs to be.
Phil Collins
All I set out to do was to earn a living playing drums, you know? And as luck would have it, I've surpassed that.
Phil Collins
When we're touring America or Europe, we use our own plane and a great advantage of that is it cuts out an awful lot of time checking in. You literally drive up to the plane, get on and then drive off at the other end.
Phil Collins
I don't want to preach, but I really think the rudiments are very important to developing your drumming skills. Many of the patterns I've recorded came from things like paradiddles, flam paradiddles, flam triplets... They might be boring to sit down and practice, but not when you apply them to the drums.
Phil Collins
I know it shouldn't make a difference, but crossing the dateline, we weren't sure what day it was - it was very strange. Now, I seem to cope with it better.
Phil Collins
Of course you can't please everyone all the time. It's just something that I've got to get over, and I'm better at it now.
