Let Collins - Hits ..... Hit You!

Advantages: Quality collection of Phils Greatest Hits
Disadvantages: A few tracks not justifying enough

...just any album, his Greatest Hits and that's why Collins entitles this album.... the......Hits. Phil Collins was one of the biggest songwriter/singers of the 80's decade and carried on making his career a success right through the early 90's and managed to succeed more with other leading artists such as Brandy updating his ' Paradise ' song. So here's the album, his greatest hit's and why I think you should buy the album! ------------------------------------ ...
...collection of Phil Collins Greatest Hits right through the 80's till now. I've used the word ' meant' because I'm not sure if he justifies himself. Considering it's entitled Hits ( The Greatest Hits ) I'd have not expected but more had of hoped to have a more fully complete album. I find the album disappoints me with a few weak tunes 1/3 the way through the album but does end on a quality high! Many of you know him well, his tunes, the music and ...

Aargh, no! Please make it stop. Please.

Advantages: None.
Disadvantages: Dull, radio friendly, middle of the road dreariness.

Collins sold out completely when Peter Gabriel left Genesis in the early 70s and should have stuck to being a decent drummer than a third-rate solo artist. This is uniformly bland, over-produced, middle-of-the-road rubbish. Another Day in Paradise (1989)- a patronising attempt to show what a sensitive chap Collins is, by highlighting poverty. Poverty of ideas more like - it contains the lines "Oh think twice, its another day for / You and me in ...
...you, / You and me in paradise" - that's all right for millionaire rock star Phil Collins to say. This track reeks of hypocrisy. True Colours - if this wasn't "pass me the bucket" sick-making enough, True Colours is a terribly saccharine love song - I see your true colours / so don't be afraid to let them show / your true colours, just like a rainbow". More insultingly badly hack writing here (not from Collins himself, so he can't be blamed for ...

A grovy kind of ALBUM

Advantages: 16 Great songs
Disadvantages: design of cover

Phil Collins ...Hits has 16 of his most popular songs, and is one of my favorite CD's. Songs it contains are: 1. ANOTHER DAY IN PARADISE 5.22 from 1989...'BUT SERIOUSLY' A great song recently remade by Brandy and Ray J. This like many of Phils songs contain great lyrics and tell the story of an old homeless woman. 2. TRUE COLORS 4.33 from 1988...'HITS' Like in all of Phils songs he plays the drums in this one. It was sang on a car advert by ...
...WALL' 4. YOU CAN'T HURRY LOVE 2.53 from 1982...'HELLO... I MUST BE GOING' 5. TWO HEARTS 3.25 from 1989...'BUSTER' soundtrack This is one of two songs from the film BUSTER where Phil played Ronnie Biggs, The Great Train robber who was in the news recently after returning to England. 6. I WISH IT WOULD RAIN DOWN 5.28 from 1989...'BUT SERIOUSLY' This is a great song in which Eric Clapton is playing the guitars. 7. AGAINST ALL ODDS 3.23 from 1984...'AGAINST ...

Hello this is brilliant!

Advantages: Its phil what more can i say
Disadvantages: nada!

...again! I purchased this latest hits one on CD (no Im not lending this out to no one!) It has all my favourite tracks on one, its an album not just for us oldies(ok im 29 lol)who remember him, but I know a few younger people who like this too. It has a good mix of songs. A lot are ballads, but there are a few upbeat tunes too. You cant hurry love the old supremes cover, done by phil is excellent, you just have to sing along to it. The two from ...
...any on here i dont like. There isn't anything new on here, but then it is a greatest hits compilation, and it certainly is greatest hits. And listening to it on the car cd system, snuggled up in the back seat, zooming down the M25 is pretty awesome too (*L*) ...

This really is a CD of Hits.

Advantages: one of his best releases combining all his best work
Disadvantages: Nonewhatsoever

Well... What can I say? I have been an avid Genesis/Collins fan for quite a while now and my CD collection consists mainly of that! However i rate ths CD very highly in my collection as it is a CD full to the max with really likeable music even to non collins fans. There are 16 tracks on this particular CD which are as follows; 1. Another Day in paradise 2. True Colours 3. Easy Lover 4. You Can't Hurry Lve 5. Two Hearts 6. I wish It Would ...
...The Way To Heaven 9. Seperate Lives 10. Both Sides Of The Story 11.One More Night 12. Sussudio 13. Dance Into The Lght 14. A Groovey Kind f Love 15. In The Air Tonight 16. Take Me Home On most CD's you get the odd track that you don't really like, but not with this one. t might be so that we have them all already on other CD's but this compilation of all his best stuff really shows the true talent of the legend that he is. This CD is very ...

A wonderful CD

Advantages: Great music
Disadvantages: none

I recently bought the CD Phil Collins.....Hits. I only really bought it for the song True Colors, but it has many other classic Collins songs on it such as You Can't Hurry Love, Two Hearts, and Against All Odds. I think that this CD is only one to buy if you're really into Phil Collins, if you're just wanting one of his songs, look around for a CD with music from various artists, or your going to end up with a CD which you payed a lot of money for, ...

Another day in paradise

Advantages: Quality tracks
Disadvantages: Nothing

Phil Collins is a veteran of the music industry. He’s been going for longer than most, and has enjoyed success in all areas of his colourful career, as drummer in Genesis, lead singer in Genesis, as a solo artist and as an actor. This album, a ‘best of’ of sorts, takes into account his solo career. It has all my favourites, and most show his evident ear for a good set of drums and the solos that ensue. You have the thoughtful and lyrically excellent ...
...Lives’; the dark and brooding tracks of ‘I Wish It Would Rain Down’ and ‘In The Air Tonight’; and the poppy fun ones like ‘Two Hearts’ and ‘Something Happened On The Way To Heaven’. Each and every tracks well deserves to be included and the quality of lyrics, and indeed the music, is unrivalled. I can listen to this over and over, as it’s the sheer range of styles that makes the album – and the artist – what they are. Excellent. ...

So much better than the garbage thats in the charts now!

Advantages: everything
Disadvantages: none

Why doest Phil return? He is such a talented, singer,musician and songwriter he could really show Britney Spears and N'Sync some tricks of the trade! All his songs are so orginal and this albul compliments all his greatest hits. Now again I was brought up on Phil Collins so in a way people could say Im biast making comments about him but I truley thing is one of the most talented men of the century. This albulm prooves with the greatest song on ...
...of all time is "Groovy Love" which despite the fact it sounds like a pop title is actually a slow and sweetly satisfying melody with some words which bring a tear to your eye! (watch the film Buster which Phil stars in and you'll see what I mean!)It really is greata and a must buy for anyone who wants the orginal and very much more talented artists to return to the charts once more. ...

"SOMETHING IN THE AIR TONIGHT"

Advantages: Great collection of songs Overall
Disadvantages: A few weaker tracks

What is there to say... its Phil Collins, and its hit greatest hits! Simple as that, if you love him, then you will probably already have all these songs, if you don't, then buy it now!!! If you are a vague fan of him, and only like a couple of tracks, or know only a couple of tracks, then i would definitely give this a try. Some songs may sound a bit 80 - 90's slightly corny/movie tracks, some are, don't get me wrong, but some how unlike most artists ...
