Ok, this one is a little special .. Here it is the upcoming
release of Phil Collins ..
This CD should hit your stores in November .. and this is
the FULL advance copy of it.
Production Help: Rob Cavallo, Allen Sides, Tim Pierce, James
Sanger.
Phil Collins' first collection of all-new solo material in
six years will reflect the veteran singer/songwriter's
newfound contentment with marriage, fatherhood and modern
technology.Testify, scheduled for a Nov. 12 release,
features songs inspired by Orianne, Collins' wife since
1999, and their 14-month-old son, Nicholas. The title track
is "the most upfront, direct love song I've ever written,"
he says, while a lullaby-like tune called Come With Me
(Close Your Eyes) combines music originally written when his
13-year-old daughter from an earlier marriage was an infant
and later adapted for a music box in Nicholas' bedroom with
a new lyric "about trying to do the best you possibly can
for your kids."In writing songs for the new CD, which
includes "some harder-edged stuff" as well, Collins worked
extensively with computers, a method he also is using for
the soundtrack of a new Disney film due in 2004. "I had
resisted computers for a long time, but the freedom they
give you in composition is amazing," he says. In addition,
Collins plans to write new material for a stage adaptation
of his first animated Disney feature, 1999's Tarzan.One
thing Collins will be doing less of in the near future is
touring. A year and a half ago, the singer developed "sudden
deafness," a viral infection that killed cells and affected
his aural comprehension in one ear. "I can hear and write
and sing, but loud noises aren't comfortable," he says. "So
I may do some showcase gigs, but I'll be concentrating more
on writing and recording than live performances."
