Watch Travis Barker and Cynthia Erivo perform ‘In The Air Tonight’ as Phil Collins tells Rock & Roll Hall

Phil Collins foi induzido ao Rock & Roll Hall Of Fame na noite passada (14 de novembro), com Cynthia Erivo e Travis Barker, do Blink-182, unindo forças para uma performance de seu clássico 'In The Air Tonight' – assista abaixo.

1. Say Now – ‘Say What You See’ EP review: another step closer to becoming girls of the moment.
2. The unbelievable truth of Twisted Teens: the New Orleans punks preaching the gospel of fast, cheap and out of control.
3. Kofi Stone is getting comfortable with life’s contradictions.

The 75-year-old singer and drummer was honoured at the Peacock Theater in Los Angeles, becoming a two-time inductee after previously being recognised as a member of Genesis in 2010.

Barker delivered the induction speech, paying tribute to Collins’ influential drumming and his extraordinary success as both a member of Genesis and a solo artist.

Ele continuou descrevendo o famoso break de bateria da música como “arguably the most badass drum fill of all time”, antes de agradecer Collins por inspirar gerações de músicos.

Following the induction, Erivo delivered a powerful, stripped-back rendition of the 1981 single, with Barker behind the kit to recreate the iconic drum part.

Collins, who attended the ceremony alongside his daughter, Emily In Paris star Lily Collins, was visibly emotional as he received a standing ovation.

O músico, que tem enfrentado uma série de problemas de saúde graves nos últimos anos, caminhou até o palco usando duas bengalas.

Reflecting on his career, Collins said: “I grew up just wanting to play the drums. Everything else has been a really happy accident.”.

Ele também agradeceu às suas três ex‑esposas pelo apoio ao longo dos anos e por lhe terem dado seus cinco filhos.

And despite having stepped away from live performance in recent years, Collins ended his speech with a promise to fans: “You haven’t heard the last of me. I promise you that.”.

The comments come after Collins ruled out performing at the ceremony earlier this year, explaining that he was not physically ready for the demands of rehearsals and singing live.

Collins tem enfrentado desafios de saúde significativos desde que sofreu uma lesão na coluna em 2007, que lhe deixou com danos nervosos e afetou sua capacidade de tocar bateria.

He has also undergone multiple knee operations.

Durante a última turnê do Genesis em 2021 e 2022, Collins tocou sentado, enquanto seu filho Nic Collins assumiu as funções de baterista.

In August, he spoke candidly about his recovery from alcohol addiction, revealing that he had been sober for three years after a period of serious illness that had left him critically ill and on life support in 2024.

Collins lançou sua carreira solo com o álbum 'Face Value' de 1981, que contou com a faixa 'In The Air Tonight', antes de lançar uma série de álbuns incrivelmente bem-sucedidos, incluindo 'Hello, I Must Be Going!', 'No Jacket Required' e.

His solo hits include ‘Against All Odds (Take A Look At Me Now)’, ‘Sussudio’, ‘One More Night’ and ‘Another Day In Paradise’.

Elsewhere at the ceremony, Oasis, Joy Division and New Order were inducted, with performances from Deftones, Lauren Mayberry and Peter Hook.

An edited version of the ceremony will air on ABC in the US on December 8, before becoming available on Disney+ and Hulu the following day.
