Phil Collins Quits the Industry

And says people won't miss him!

WRONG, PHIL. We Miss You All The Time! Especially in this era of shit music! You were one of the ones that made the 80's so friggin' great!

"He says he know feels an outsider in an industry he used to dominate.

He went on: "I look at the MTV Music Awards and I think: 'I can't be in the same business as this. I don't really belong to that world and I don't think anyone's going to miss me. I'm much happier to write myself out of the script entirely."

NO! NO! NO! Of course you see the MTV awards as a foreign world, it is! It sucks so much no one cares what they play on MTV. You're right on that, but don't let it fool you into thinking that's what people want! We want you and your gift of music writing, singing and playing! You are one of the absolute bests of all time!

"The 60-year-old, who lives in Switzerland, has suffered a raft of health problems over recent years. His hearing has been badly affected by playing live, he has dislocated vertebra and nerve damage in his hands which makes it virtually impossible for him to play his beloved drums."

We're sorry you feel so beat up, but don't quit forever. 60 is the new 40!

We LOVE LOVE LOVE all of your songs. You totally dominated the industry for years. People should be kissing your ass! You had at least 14 top 40 hits, not to mention how many #1's?

Bob Geldof said of Collins after recording the drums for the Band Aid single "Feed The World" "Phil Collins is a magnificent soul. He has touched the world through his music and he continues to fight against world poverty. He is one of life's true heroes."

Collins has stated he is a supporter of animal rights and People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA).

We f'ing LOVE THAT!

Your Genesis song "Land of Confusion" is one of our favorite songs OF ALL TIME! The lyrics are so inspiring and awesome.

Well this is the world we live in
And these are the hands we're given
Use them and let's start trying
To make it a place worth living in

Ooh, Superman where are you now
When everything's gone wrong somehow?
The men of steel, the men of power
Are losing control by the hour

CRANK IT UP AND ENJOY! (let it spool first, then go back and let it roll!)




I must've dreamed a thousand dreams
Been haunted by a million screams
But I can hear the marching feet
They're moving into the street

Now did you read the news today
They say the danger's gone away
But I can see the fire's still alight
There burning into the night

There's too many men, too many people
Making too many problems
And not much love to go round
Can't you see this is a land of confusion?

Well this is the world we live in
And these are the hands we're given
Use them and let's start trying
To make it a place worth living in

Ooh, Superman where are you now
When everything's gone wrong somehow?
The men of steel, the men of power
Are losing control by the hour

This is the time, this is the place
So we look for the future
But there's not much love to go round
Tell me why, this is a land of confusion

This is the world we live in
And these are the hands we're given
Use them and let's start trying
To make it a place worth living in

I remember long ago when the sun was shining
Yes, and the stars were bright all through the night
And the sound of your laughter as I held you tight, so long ago

I won't be coming home tonight
My generation will put it right
We're not just making promises
That we know, we'll never keep

Too many men, there's too many people
Making too many problems
And not much love to go round
Can't you see, this is a land of confusion?

Now this is the world we live in
And these are the hands we're given
Use them and let's start trying
To make it a place worth fighting for
This is the world we live in

This is the world we live in
And these are the names we're given
Stand up and let's start showing
Just where our lives are going to.

Oh, Phil, just come back already! We're so sick of stupid Britney Spears and the "so outrageous and creatively talented" Lady Gaga. She certainly puts the gag in gaga as every time we see her we want to puke. The industry needs you. We need some good rock and roll, not Justin Beiber. SAVE US!
