A very successful British drummer. Sadly, despite what people may tell you, he cannot sing and relies on electronic music devices to make his music sound good.
Mr. Collins normally sings out of tune, but his vocal harmonizers and pitch correctors fix all that.
Listen closely to any of his songs (even the Genesis ones) and you'll notice how his voice is always doubled and slightly echoed.
On the song "In the Air Tonight", about 2 minutes into the track, the filters are tweaked so that there are 3 versions of his voice singing at the same time - the 'normal' filtered version, a comical low pitched version, and his real voice. The low, weak, screechy, high voice in the background is his real singing voice.
Oh and FYI, the 'drum solo' on "In the Air..." was done on a drum machine, so I really don't know how it is considered a solo when a machine is playing it throughout the whole song.
But once again, he is a great drummer...

Get the phil collinsmug. A perfetic bitch that has a lower brain capacity than a bloody buzz feed feminist. I don't know how this is possible but she is actually more annoying than bad boy carney or Clayton. In other word she's a stuck up prick

Get the taylor collinsmug. Here's the deal: Phil Collins can't fucking sing. He's a great drummer, but he just plain can't fucking sing. What he *can* do, however, is apply a cheap 80s reverb filter so that people go ZOMG WHAT A GREAT VOICE!!11! What, you seriously thing think that 'great vocalists' echo when they sing?

Get the Phil Collinsmug. Places close too early, if you're under 21 there ain't sh*t to do, the mall is one floor and too small, vanilla valley, not enough places to dance and traffic is worse than Denver

Get the Fort Collinsmug. The author of "The Gospel according to Collins"; Creator of "The Collins Theory"; A phenomenal teacher who tells amazing stories in class.
Yo dawg, I read that "The Gospel according to Collins" book and was totally invigorated by that Mark Collins author.
Collins is totally a Mark Collins because he is such an amazing teacher.
