Phil Collins announces retirement
The Associated Press ![]() 05:12:35PM (ET) Tuesday,March 8,2011. LONDON (AP) — British singer and drummer Phil Collins has taken to his personal website to announce his retirement in a bid to clarify recent speculation over his career. In a post titled "Breaking News," the multiple Grammy award winner writes that he wants to explain his reasons "for calling it a day" in response to articles claiming why he was quitting the music business. "Many of the articles printed over the last few months have ended up painting a picture of me that is more than a little distorted," Collins explains. Collins says he is stopping music so he can be a full time father to his two young sons "on a daily basis" — not because of bad reviews, bad press or because he doesn't "feel loved." Collins has sold an estimated 100 million albums as a solo artist. ---------------------------------------------------------------- * Phil is a class act and will miss his music. Who knows ? Perhaps he will make a comeback... ![]() Only time will tell. *
