aw

That's actually kind of shitty.

phil will hunt these fucks down

that's super shitty. Screw these people.

lmao

Don't worry, Phil...

You'll beeeeee in my hearrt NO MATTER WHAT THEY SAY

I don't care how unmanly it is, that song makes me tear up.

bring on some new phil!

Wtf.

he's a nonthreatening type of guy lol this is indeed shitty

this has to be my favorite thing I've seen this year

What's so bad about Phil Collins?

It's a joke petition and it's closed now.

This is basically my favorite thing ever

Tracy Jordan: I'm gonna make you a mix tape. You like Phil Collins?
Jack: I have two ears and a heart, don't I?

The article I read where he said he was coming out of retirement was the best thing ever. He seems to have a very dry sense of humor

What's so bad about Phil Collins?

everything

Or you know nothing, dude's legit legendary

honestly who gives a fuck about phil collins anymore
the only thing worth caring about now is that his daughter is insanely good looking

Sure...

Pretty much, that's why this petition is so odd

"the only thing worth caring about now is that his daughter is insanely good looking"

and not even this is worth caring about in the least.

Kind of a dick thing to do.

That doesn't mean I wouldn't sign it, of course.

fuck these guys...wtf

You can't stop that drumming.

man i really care about that

man you really care about that

what the fuck. of all the people to do this to, they choose Phil Collins. there are thousands upon thousands of worse artists they could do this to

this is funny, i remember some guy from seattle said he'd give weezer 10 million to stop making music a few years ago

someone who actually had 10 mil?

Some people really have nothing going on with their lives.

grow up, of all the things people could bitch about, Phil Collins is at the top of their list

[At the UN, early morning]

"Let us begin the meeting. Our first order of business today, and one of utmost importance, is this petition that has reached us with the disturbing news that Phil Collins has come out of retirement."

*Nations representatives awash in panic*

"Now everyone, calm yourselves. This is distressing indeed. But with swift and proper action, Phil Collins can be dealt with, as is the will of the people!"

This is a scenario that will NEVER FUCKING HAPPEN.

"Some people really have nothing going on with their lives."

I mean it takes all of half a second to sign the petition.
And the dude that made the petition probably spent 2 minutes at most doing so.

Unless you were talking about Phil Collins.
If so, wow rude.

Outside of South Park and Nostalgia Critic, do people really hate Phil Collins that much? I thought people loved Genesis.

Invisible Touch is my jam forever

It's trendy to hate him right now, jump on that bandwagon while it's still rolling

There's nothing wrong with Phil Collins wtf

the guy is a fucking legend so this is pretty sad

"Outside of South Park and Nostalgia Critic, do people really hate Phil Collins that much? I thought people loved Genesis."

The stupid shits commenting here (or at least the stupid shits that signed the petition) probably don't even realize he was in Genesis.

ok

I wasn't referring to you. You obviously know everything. That goes without saying. But I am still suing you.

There's too many men, too many people making too many problems!!!

too many men too many many men

petition update ruined the joke

The joke ruined itself by being stupid.

Yeah--this was moronic even as a joke.

Face Value is a great record, "You Know What I Mean" being the crowning jewel. As good as "In the Air Tonight" is... "You Know what I mean" just slays my black and withered heart.

This is fucking hilarious. Best thing I've seen all day, mainly due to its sheer stupidity.

LOL.

Phil Collins rules.
End of story.

Agreed.

Phil Collins rules [2]

I think the whole thing with people hating Phil Collins is almost a joke in itself. The man is a legend.

Yeah people need to stop hating on him.

phil rules

His solo albums are awful. The end

Phil Collins is a bad ass, I really don't understand why this would happen.

"His solo albums are awful."

No, they aren't. Definitely not his early ones and even his later, considerably weaker work is hardly ever truly awful.

there are thousands upon thousands of worse artists they could do this to[2]

What a bunch of pricks. Online petitions are a joke.

You're right. Let's start an online petition against online petitions.

butthurt itt is hilarious

people it was a joke petition. A JOKE!

Phil Collins has sucked for a long time.

He should join the Bosley team or something. Put some effort into something he has needed for awhile.

I don't get it, he's not even that bad.

say what you want about him, he knew how to make a hit, and was an integral part of the best prog band ever

Thought this was about Def Leppard Phil and was like wtf that man is sexy

Phil Collins is far from a joke of a musician, m8

"adamantly defend a joke of a musician...."

go back to tumblr

"I don't understand how people can be so mad about a joke petition yet at the same time adamantly defend a joke of a musician...."

because the joke wasn't funny and Phil Collins is anything but a joke

dude's a fuckin' legend, bar the solo stuff

yeah phil collins is god tbh

dude's a fuckin' legend, bar the solo stuff

dude is a legend

im not i just think he's great.

I REMEMBER

"i was more specifically referencing him presently, not his past work. He's 64... i can't imagine he's at his musical prime."

The guy just came out of retirement how would you know whether or not he's a joke musically right now?

there's lots of musicians worse than phil collins who deserve this more

are they coming out of retirement though?

why tho? this is dumb and his daughter is hot so there's that

I don't like his solo stuff that much, but even barring Genesis his other projects like Brand X and all the credits he has on like Eno and Gabriel make him freaking legend. I can just picture the nerds that put this together being like "The guy that sang in Tarzan? LOL he ain't hype!"

ever heard of assumptions....?

it didn't read like an assumption tbh

Land of Confusion is a good song at least this petition is dumb

stop tho

star-swipes bro. deal with it bitch.

...But Seriously

"I think you and me are the only two dudes left on this site with original taste in music smdh"

fight to the death?>

"seriously ain't even a good drummer really"

tbh i dont even give a fuck about genesis i just like bangin his solo stuff on tape in my car

"I could never fight you, taters. We share a kindred e-spirit. Blood is thicker than water."

:')

i genuinely do but im totes ghey as fuck for 80's pop, synth pop, new wave and all that other ghey shit in general so what can i say

Wow, that was pretty un-funny.

Just because you didn't get it, doesn't mean it wasn't a joke...

Brilliant.

This is dumb

I'm ready for more sweet, sweet Disney tunes by Mr. Collins.

people have too much time on their hands

Declared a jest by the creator though

"I'm ready for more sweet, sweet Disney tunes by Mr. Collins."

Refresh my memory here; what Disney movie does he have credits in? I wanna say Lion King, but I'm also thinking that's elton john.

Tarzan!

Lion King was Elton John, yes.

Yessss Tarzan.

I'm totally up for more Phil in Disney. Perhaps Pixar. That'd be money.

Seriously?

He wrote songs for Tarzan AND Brother Bear.

"Seriously?"

Yes. Seriously. Well I can't truly say if it'd be money or not. But it is my opinion and guess that if Pixar and Collins were to collaborate, the output would be money, both literally and figuratively.

This is really upsetting to hear. If you don't like an artist don't listen to them, but having a petition signed to keep them from creating art? That's awful.

A petition to stop a musician? On change.org, no less? How cute. I was a 14 year old with internet access once.

PHIL COLLINS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Fuck this shit! I love his music!

I actually like Phil Collins but I found this hilarious!
