Rock Icon Phil Collins Says He’s Lost Drive to Make Music: “I’ve Been Sick — VERY Sick’


British rocker Phil Collins, the drummer-singer for the band Genesis who became a chart-topping solo artist, says he has no drive to make new music because of severe health issues.

In a new interview with Mojo magazine, Collins says he is “not hungry” for any creative efforts, even in his own home:

“I keep thinking I should go downstairs to the studio and see what happens,” Collins tells MOJO’s Mark Blake. “But I’m not hungry for it anymore. The thing is, I’ve been sick, I mean very sick…”

Collins suffered severe nerve damage following a spinal injury in 2007 and has had deteriorating mobility in recent years, meaning that for Genesis’s farewell shows in 2022 he had to sing sitting down while his son Nic played drums.
