Review

Phil Collins' '...But Seriously' is a musical journey that invites listeners to ponder life's weightier matters. Released in the twilight of the 1980s, this album marks a turning point for Collins, as he trades in his dance shoes for a more contemplative pair of loafers. The drum machines of yesteryear are set aside, making way for the warm, resonant tones of a live drum kit, while keyboards and electric piano weave a rich tapestry of sound.

Collins' voice, stripped of its usual effects, rings out with raw honesty as he grapples with social inequality and injustice. 'Another Day in Paradise' and 'Colours' stand out as powerful testaments to his newfound social conscience, painting vivid portraits of a world in need of change. It's as if Collins has opened his eyes to the world around him and decided to use his musical platform to shine a light on its darker corners.

The album's impact was immediate and far-reaching, climbing to the summit of charts across the globe and dominating the airwaves. Its success wasn't limited to record sales, however. The Seriously, Live World Tour of 1990 saw Collins bringing these poignant messages to stages around the world, proving that his evolution as an artist was more than just a studio phenomenon. With '...But Seriously', Collins not only changed his tune but also struck a chord with listeners eager for music with meaning. - Becca
