He Was My Favorite Singer 30 Years Ago, But I Can’t Recognize Him Today…


A few months ago, rock star sensation Phil Collins revealed that he could no longer play the drums. The singer, who is seventy-one years old, broke the news to disappointed fans as his bandmates were planning to join forces again to go on a Genesis tour.

Now, Collins has appeared on stage in various venues across the world but was unable to stand during his performance in Berlin, which has made many fans worry about the singer’s health.

During the engaging event in Berlin, Collins performed alongside bandmates Mike Rutherford and Tony Banks. Although he did an excellent job with his vocal performance, fans could not help but notice that his health was failing him. Throughout the performance, Collins was unable to stand, so he remained seated, gripping the microphone to his chest as his life depended upon it.

Although fans who gathered to see Genesis perform at the Mercedez Benz Arena were delighted to see Collins in action on the stage, they could not help but be reminded that the singer is not the man he once was.
Because Collins was pictured sitting throughout the performance in Berlin, he became a trending topic on Twitter. Some fans went so far as to compare the British singer to his former bandmate Peter Gabriel.

Fans quickly turned to social media to defend Collins and argue that he is not looking too bad despite the health setbacks he has faced during the last few years.
