I'll never forget when that song came out. My uncle heard it on the radio a lot and he told me there was this killer new Bulletboys tune on the radio and it went, "I cant dance...I cant talk...only thing about me is the way I walk.." I was a Bulletboys fan as well and looked forward to hearing this song. A few days later while home watching MTV, that Genesis video came on and once I heard those verses, I burst out laughing over the fact he actually thought that was a Bulletboys song.I can't dance......
Surprise, surprise, surprise!

Do you like Phil Collins? I've been a big Genesis fan ever since the release of their 1980 album, Duke. Before that, I really didn't understand any of their work. Too artsy, too intellectual. It was on Duke where, uh, Phil Collins' presence became more apparent. I think Invisible Touch was the group's undisputed masterpiece. It's an epic meditation on intangibility. At the same time, it deepens and enriches the meaning of the preceding three albums. Christy, take off your robe. Listen to the brilliant ensemble playing of Banks, Collins and Rutherford. You can practically hear every nuance of every instrument. Sabrina, remove your dress. In terms of lyrical craftsmanship, the sheer songwriting, this album hits a new peak of professionalism. Sabrina, why don't you, uh, dance a little. Take the lyrics to "Land of Confusion". In this song, Phil Collins addresses the problems of abusive political authority. "In Too Deep" is the most moving pop song of the 1980s, about monogamy and commitment. The song is extremely uplifting. Their lyrics are as positive and affirmative as, uh, anything I've heard in rock. Christy, get down on your knees so Sabrina can see your asshole. Phil Collins' solo career seems to be more commercial and therefore more satisfying, in a narrower way. Especially songs like "In the Air Tonight" and, uh, "Against All Odds". Sabrina, don't just stare at it, eat it. But I also think Phil Collins works best within the confines of the group, than as a solo artist, and I stress the word artist. This is "Sussudio", a great, great song, a personal favorite.

I wonder if Patrick would have enjoyed Chinese Democracy.

Demoralize the enemy from within by surprise, terror, sabotage, assassination. This is the war of the future.
