Phil Collins quote: "I don't really listen to music."
I don't really listen to music. Phil Collins
Many people think of me as a perfectionist, someone who polishes and shines each song and performance. I've always been bothered by that assumption. Phil Collins
I grew up in the day when the Beatles sold 1 million singles in a week. And all you've got to do now is sell about 10,000 singles and you're in the charts. Phil Collins
I'm not trying necessarily to become a movie star; that wouldn't be bad but that's not the aim. I'm just trying to do interesting things and go into areas where I've not been before. Phil Collins
Phil Collins quote: "Put your faith in what you most believe in."
Put your faith in what you most believe in. Phil Collins
