Phil Collins

Hits

(Nearly) all of the great songs.

Review Score:

(10/10)
Whether or not you like a "Best Of" is also dependent on whether or not you like the artist - so, if you doesn't like Phil Collins radio-pop-songs ("One More Night", "Another Day In Paradise" etc.) this certainly isn't the record to buy! If you, however, know only a couple of the songs, and like those, you can be sure: You will probably like all those songs.

"Hits" is a great collection of Phil's songs, because it includes a lot of songs not from his ordinary albums ("Against All Odds", "Two Hearts", "Easy Lover", "Separate Lifes" from movies and more), which makes it worth the money, even if you have his albums.

All the hits included on this album deserves to be there, but there are some missing tracks. Of course, the CD can only have so many minutes, but still, "Don't Lose My Number" should not be let out - this is a REAL classic of Phil! Disappointing. Instead, a new and somewhat boring track ("True Coulors") has been included, which I don't think was necesary to get the fans to buy this album. Other missing hits are "Do You Remember" and "Everyday", but that's O.K. - there isn't space on the CD, and a double-CD would be overrated.

Still, the masterpieces included are: "Against All Odds", "Dance Into The Light", "Both Sides", "Susudio", "Another Day In Paradise", "One More Night", "Separate Lives", "I Wish It Would Rain Down" ... so there's no doubt that this is an excellent collection of fantastic songs.

A must for everyone who likes Phil Collins voice.
