Flashback: Phil Collins Says ‘Farewell’ – And Actually Means It

By Andy Greene

Andy Greene

Not a lot of people took Phil Collins seriously when he announced his “First Final Farewell Tour” in 2003. Beyond the fact that the tour’s title was clearly tongue-in-cheek, performers from the Who to Cher to Frank Sinatra have said “farewell” over the years, only to go back on the promise just a few years later. Also, Collins was just 53 and in fine health. It seemed unlikely he’d just disappear.

Doubts aside, the tour was a huge success. The set list focused on his large catalog of solo hits, from “In the Air Tonight” to “Sussudio” and “Another Day in Paradise.” “Misunderstanding” was the only Genesis song, and he only performed three songs from his new 2002 LP, Testify . As always, the show ended with “Take Me Home.” (Here’s video of “In the Air Tonight” from Paris in 2004.)

Just two years after the tour wrapped, Collins reunited with Genesis for a 40-date world tour. In 2010 he fulfilled his Atlantic Records contract with the Motown covers disc Going Back , and he promoted it with a handful of gigs in America and Europe, but those shows didn’t feature a single one of his original compositions.

It’s now been 11 years since Collins released an album of original material, and he’s been very clear he has little interest in getting back into the game. “ I’ve kind of put that side of my life on hold mainly because I feel like I’ve earned this opportunity to do nothing,” he told Rolling Stone in 2012.  “And I have young children, so I don’t feel the drive to go out there and compete . . . I can’t be what I used to be. I can’t play like I used to. And I don’t want to go out there and do it half-assedly.  ”

Frail Phil Collins begins Genesis farewell tour in Birmingham, singing from chair onstage

Thanks for contacting us. We've received your submission.

“Against All Odds,” Phil Collins is soldiering on.

A frail-looking Collins finished his first show with Genesis on the group’s “The Last Domino?” tour in Birmingham Monday night, remaining seated throughout the concert.

Collins, 70, sang all of the evening’s tunes from a chair onstage, though he was not alone in that regard: The group’s guitarist Mike Rutherford also opted to play while perched on a stool at points.

The Birmingham show was the first stop on the band’s farewell tour and their first live performance in 13 years since 2007’s Turn It On Again Tour.

In the latest issue of Mojo , Collins said recently that this will be the final chance to see Genesis in concert. “This English and American tour, that will be enough for me,” he said.

Collins has struggled with his health in recent years and has been open about his physical issues heading into this tour.

Asked how he’s been prepping for months of three-hour shows, Collins told the Guardian that he hasn’t:  “I don’t do anything at all,” he said. “I don’t practice singing at home, not at all. Rehearsing is the practice. These guys [his band mates] are always having a go at me for not, but I have to do it this way.”

Collins revealed prior to starting the tour that he can “barely hold” drumsticks owing to the combination of improper technique and a spinal injury he suffered in the late aughts.

“My vertebrae have been crushing my spinal cord because of the position I drum in,” he explained. “It comes from years of playing. I can’t even hold the sticks properly without it being painful; I even used to tape the sticks to my hands to get through.”

Collins’ 20-year-old son Nic has taken over the drum throne for him. Collins called his handicap “very frustrating ’cause, you know, I’d love to be playing up there with my son,” on “BBC Breakfast” earlier this month.

Asked if the current tour is putting Genesis “to bed,” Collins said, “We’re all men of our age, and I think — to some extent — yeah, it probably is putting it to bed.”

“Just, generally, for me,” he added, “I don’t know if I want to go out on the road anymore.”
