‘Emily in Paris’ Lily Collins Reveals Who She Thinks Her Character’s One True Love Is
Phil Collins is speaking out about his health.
The “In the Air Tonight” singer got candid about the long-term effects of his decades of drumming, which eventually left him unable to play the percussion instrument.
“It’s still kind of sinking in a bit,” Phil said in the documentary Phil Collins: Drummer First, which was filmed in October 2022 and released Dec. 18. “I’ve spent all my life playing drums. To suddenly not be able to do that is a shock.”
The former Genesis frontman explained that the physical toll of drumming for so many years had impacted his hands and legs, which led him to formally retire from drumming in 2022.
“If I can’t do what I did as well as I did it, I’d rather relax and not do anything,” he continued. “If I wake up one day and I can hold a pair of drumsticks, then I’ll have a crack at it. But I just feel like I’ve used up my air miles.”
