49. Phil Collins’ But Seriously (1989) - Is it too long?

5 ft 6 Phil Collins was a GIANT music star. Only Michael Jackson & Madonna sold more than him in the 1980s. His last album of that decade, ‘…But Seriously (1989)’, sold more than 21M copies. The previous release, ‘No Jacket Required (1985)’, sold 25M. So why is he not talked about and remembered in the same reverential way as those other mega-selling artists?  Paul & Stephen discuss this while critiquing each song on the album to create an under 50 minute cut of it. Along the way they’ll tell some Phil Collins jokes, play archive interview clips, reminisce about seeing him play live in 1992 & 1994, and give their opinion on when he should have called it a day to preserve his artistic legacy.  What are you waiting for?!
