They took my voice
Erased my past
With all that noise
It couldn't last
With words so cruel
I washed my face
I hoped one day
I'd wake up in a better place
Today I took back
what was stolen
And gave new life to what was frozen
One mouth talking
A dead man walking
A thousand faces watched me falling
I've made my peace
with what may happen
Accepted I won't be in fashin
Oh you gave I got it
Yeah you gave I got it all back
Since I saw you last
When brothers land
And take what's good
You can win a war
Oh and shed no blood
Everybody plays their part
Oh we let the haters hate
While everybody's losing heart
Lying in the longest grass I sit and wait
Today I took back
what was stolen
And gave new life to what was frozen
One mouth talking
A dead man walking
A thousand faces watched me falling
I've made my peace
with what may happen
Accepted I won't be in fashin
Oh you gave I got it
Yeah you gave I got it all back
Since I saw you last
I know you heard
My shout for help
For those who stood and watched
Go f* yourself
I know you heard my
cry for help
I know you heard I was going through hell
I know you heard I was losing my mind
I know you heard it was a matter of time
I know you heard
I know you heard
I know you heard
I know you heard.

What'll you do when
you get lonely
And nobody's waiting by your side?
You've been running and hiding much too long
You know it's just your foolish pride
Layla, you've got me
on my knees
Layla, I'm begging, darling please
Layla, darling won't you ease my worried mind
I tried to give you
consolation
When your old man had let you down
Like a fool, I fell in love with you
You turned my whole world upside down
Layla, you've got me
on my knees
Layla, I'm begging, darling please
Layla, darling won't you ease my worried mind
Make the best of the
situation
Before I finally go insane
Please don't say we'll never find a way
And tell me all my love's in vain
Layla, you've got me
on my knees
Layla, I'm begging, darling please
Layla, darling won't you ease my worried mind
Layla, you've got me on my knees
Layla, I'm begging, darling please
Layla, darling won't you ease my worried mind.

solo career. Between
1982 and 1990, Collins achieved three UK and seven US number-one singles in his
solo career. When his work with Genesis, his work with other
artists, as well as his solo career is totalled, he had more US top 40 singles
than any other artist during the 1980s. His most successful singles from the
period include "In the Air Tonight",

completed drama school training, which secured him various roles as a child
actor. He then pursued a music career, joining Genesis in
1970 as their drummer and becoming lead singer in 1975 following the departure
of Peter Gabriel. Collins
began a successful solo career in the 1980s, initially inspired by his marital
breakdown and love of soul music,
releasing the albums Face Value(1981),
Hello, I Must
Be Going(1982), No Jacket Required(1985)
and ...But Seriously(1989). Collins became, in the words of AllMusic,
"one of the most successful pop and adult
contemporarysingers of the '80s and
beyond". He also became known for a distinctive gated reverbdrum
sound on many of his recordings. In 1985, he was the only artist to perform at
both Live Aidconcerts.
He also resumed his acting career, appearing in Miami Viceand
subsequently starring in the film Buster(1988).
In 1996, Collins left Genesis to focus on solo work; this included writing
songs for Disney’s Tarzan(1999)
for which he received an Oscar for Best
Original Songfor “You'll Be in
My Heart”. He rejoined Genesis for their Turn It On
Again Tourin 2007. Following a five-year
retirement to focus on his family life, Collins released an autobiography in
2016 and completed his Not Dead Yet Tourin 2019. He then joined up with Genesis for a second
reunion tourto commence in late 2021.
Collins's
discographyincludes eight studio albums that
have sold 33.5 million certified units in the US and an estimated
150 million records sold worldwide, making him one of the world's
best-selling artists. He is one of only three
recording artists, along with Paul McCartneyand Michael Jackson, who
have sold over 100 million records both as solo artists and separately as
principal members of a band. He has won eight Grammy Awards, six Brit Awards(winning
Best British Male Artistthree times), two Golden Globe Awards,
one Academy Award, and a Disney LegendAward. He was awarded six Ivor Novello Awardsfrom the British Academy of Songwriters, Composers and Authors,

publications with induction into the Modern DrummerHall of Fame in 2012, and the Classic Drummer Hall of Fame in 2013.
Phil Collinsrecorded
a new version of "A Groovy Kind of Love" in 1988. He had originally
suggested the song as a good one for collaborator Stephen
Bishopto record, with Collins producing.
While filming the movie Buster(1988),
Collins suggested the song as a potential love theme for the title character
and his wife. He
recorded a demo as a guide for the producers, only to find out later his demo
had actually been used in the film. Collins had initially expressed
reservations about being featured on the soundtrack during the movie, but
relented due to feeling it worked well for the scene. He
subsequently recorded a full version of the song, co-produced by Anne Dudley. This
version was originally released on Buster: The Original Motion Picture Soundtrack.
It subsequently appeared on the compilation albums Hits,
Love Songs: A Compilation... Old and New,
and The Singles.
A live performance appeared on his Serious
Hits... Live!album.
