description: "He owned the 1980s twice over: once behind the kit and mic for Genesis, once on his own with a drum sound and string of singles — 'In the Air Tonight', 'Against All Odds', 'Another Day in Paradise' — that made him more inescapable than any other artist that decade."

# bio (long form, separated for readability)
bio: |
  Born in West London in 1951, Collins started drumming at five and spent his early teens as a professional actor, playing the Artful Dodger in Oliver! on the West End. He joined Genesis as drummer in 1970, then stepped up as lead singer in 1975 after Peter Gabriel left. A decade later, spurred by a broken marriage and a love of soul, he launched a solo career that turned him into one of the defining voices of adult contemporary pop: Face Value, No Jacket Required, and ...But Seriously sold tens of millions. He played both Live Aid shows in one day via Concorde, won an Oscar for 'You'll Be in My Heart' from Tarzan, left Genesis in 1996, came back for reunion tours in 2007 and again from 2021 to 2022. Estimated 150 million records sold worldwide, inducted into the Rock Hall twice.
