Phil Collins

[Robson]

Comparing Phil Collins to Mark Knopfler is a road to nowhere. In my opinion, of course

Should we compare them to David Byrne?

Comparing in general is a trap.

Not sure you can easily compare artistes to be honest as they are all unique in their special way...

MK however is a different kettle of fish!!

Exactly!

It is all personal taste, there is no way to measure these things, Mark's music will last, no doubt at all about that. I adore Mike Oldfield's music, not everyone else does, that's fine. The point is, Phil seems in a worse health condition than Mark does, plus Mark has been more prolific a song writer, Phil's last album of original songs was Testify in 2002.

It's odd that formerly prolific writers like Phil and Billy Joel just seemed to stop.

Phil Collins is a much bigger artist than MK and I don't mean this in a provoking way. MK is sort of a man with an excellent working attitude. But Collins during his Genesis times made a lot of stuff that will last. Mama is superior to anything MK has done. In my opinion.

Bing Crosby was the biggest star on the planet not that long ago. Nowadays, not so much.

Maybe at Christmas, occasionally.

He was the biggest star in the world for a long time. However, that time was before your time.

I watched a few minutes, Phil seems to be in OK shape, just has to sit while he is singing.

Not my cup of tea, although I did briefly watch a small snippet. I should expect it will make it's way to social media in time!
