Every time I hear a Phil Collins song, I hate him a little bit more.

[Orrex]

Even as long as seven or eight years ago, I would have thought it impossible to despise him any more profoundly, but here we are.

[theNotoriousP.I.G.]

1. He's also on my most hated list

ever since I found out he told his wife he wanted a divorce via fax.

Classic asshole. I hear his shitty songs and they haunt me for days.

[Orrex]

6. The divorce-by-fax is news to me

And another reason to loathe him.


As if I needed one!

[peekaloo]

2. He really fucked up the mid to late '80's for me.

listening to that leprechaun howl harmed my psyche.

[Orrex]

7. I've hated him since I first knew who he was

And I blame him for the inappropriate proliferation of horn sections in 80s music.

[graywarrior]

3. I'd like to send him I Hate You notes

[Orrex]

8. We can send them together.

Perhaps, with enough like-minded people, we'll qualify for bulk mail rates.

[graywarrior]

18. I have no reason, and yet a million reasons why I hate him.

[mix]

4. And I thought I was alone.

11. This thread has made me feel so validated. I'm getting all misty-eyed!

In my junior high and high school years, I had a friend who was an absolute zealot for Genesis, so I knew everything there was to know about this awful band.

They're the most consistently just-below-average band in the history of modern music, and to this day they get far more air time than they deserve.

21. I had a close friend who was a zealot for Rush, so I know that feeling!

but i digress...Phil Collins, the original Mayor of Simpleton

5. Separated at birth?

[KG]

9. fortunately, i am able to inhabit a no-phil-collins world.

i find most pop music entirely forgettable, but his shit is downright annoying.

[Orrex]

14. What a beautiful world that must be.

Color me envious.

[tigereye]

10. so listen to Peter Gabriel, who tends to have the opposite effect on people!

to be fair, Phil can play the drums pretty well.

[Orrex]

15. If he'd stick to drums, I might not hate him so profoundly

But he can't seem to keep that shrieking yowl of his away from the microphone.

[tigereye]

16. yeah, I don't like his singing either....

[kedrys]

12. Worst earworms of all time

I have a psychotic breakdown every time I hear one of his "songs".

[Orrex]

13. True fact: "Invisible Touch" caused me to go on a killing spree in 1991

The verdict was "not guilty by reason of Phil Collins' awful music."

[Moondog]

17. I have never been able to stand this guy's

music, or him for that matter. I thought I was the Lone Ranger on this. Glad to see that there are others ....

[bigwillq]

19. Never was a huge fan of his.

He annoyed me.

[Arugula Latte]

20. He seems to have the invisible touch on you
