1982) Philip David Charles
Collins (born January 30, 1951
in Chiswick, London) is an
English singer, songwriter,
drummer and actor. He is best
known as the lead singer and
drummer of progressive rock
group Genesis and as a Grammy
and Academy Award-winning solo
artist. He is also an
accomplished actor, having
starred in numerous
films.Collins sang the lead
vocals on eight American
chart-toppers between 1984 and
1989; seven as a solo artist
and one with Genesis. His
singles, often dealing with
lost love, ranged from the
drum-heavy 'In the Air
Tonight', to the dance pop of
'Sussudio', to the political
statements of his most
successful song, 'Another Day
in Paradise'. His
international popularity
transformed Genesis from a
progressive rock group to a
regular on the pop charts and
an early MTV mainstay.
Collins's professional career
began as a drummer, first with
obscure rock group Flaming
Youth and then more famously
with Genesis. In Genesis,
Collins originally supplied
backing vocals for front man
Peter Gabriel, singing lead on
only two songs; it would not
be until Gabriel's departure
in 1975 that he became the
group's lead singer. As the
decade closed, Genesis's first
international hit, 'Follow
You, Follow Me', demonstrated
a drastic change from the
band's early years. His
concurrent solo career,
heavily influenced by his
personal life, brought both
him and Genesis commercial
success. According to Atlantic
Records, Collins's total
worldwide sales as a solo
artist, as of 2002, were over
100 million.
