In The Air Tonight Music Video

Back


"I don't know what this song is about. When I was writing this I was going through a divorce. And the only thing I can say about it is that it's obviously in anger. It's the angry side, or the bitter side of a separation. So what makes it even more comical is when I hear these stories which started many years ago, particularly in America, of someone come up to me and say, 'Did you really see someone drowning?' I said, 'No, wrong'. And then every time I go back to America the story gets Chinese whispers, it gets more and more elaborate. It's so frustrating, 'cos this is one song out of all the songs probably that I've ever written that I really don't know what it's about, you know."

The story about the song is just an urban legend... But maybe he just wanted to see his wife's lawyer drowning and he wrote this, but the song doesn't have a story behind it. Fin.

Phil Collins was telling in lots of interviews, that it´s a song about him finding out about his wife cheatin´...it has nothing to do about rape..and surely nobody was killed...
