Phil Collins Quotes

English - Musician | January 30, 1951 -

'Urban Renewal' was sweet because I've been - unfairly, I would say - plonked in the middle of the road because of a handful of songs. It came at a good time for me, because you do take a bit of a browbeating and, as you get older, you become better at accepting it and realizing why it happens.

Good Time Me Sweet Road Better

I just don't think of myself as a star. This is what I do for a living; I'm fortunate that I make ends meet.

Myself Think Living Meet Star Just

I can't play anywhere near like I used to, and I was a hot drummer. It doesn't bother me, because frankly, if you get to that point where you can't hold a drumstick properly, there are many other things in life which are far more important, like cutting a loaf of bread or a piece of cheese.

Life Me You Cheese Play Important

Learning Past Me Book Friends Talk

I've got one of four known Davy Crocket rifles. It's fantastic just to know it's one of the rifles that he actually used. His cousin had it.

Know Used Got Just Fantastic Four

I joined Genesis when I was 19. I've earned the right to actually do nothing. I don't want to be a shadow of what I was, so I've kind of just quite willingly stood back.

Shadow Back Want Kind Nothing Right

It's not often that an English drummer gets an Oscar. So I'm very, very proud of that.

Proud Drummer English Very Often

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.

Day Week You Now Up Sell

I don't really listen to music.

Music Listen Really

I don't own an ABBA album, and I never had the urge to go and buy one. If you're just talking about well crafted pop songs, they were fantastic.

Talking You Go Never Buy Own
