   Like I said, I would very much like a transcribed account or video footage of this interview so I can see for myself how quickly and honestly he seemed to respond to the question.

	Yeah, close study of Phil Collins will suggest the guy is very calculating. He knows that history treats his prog output much kinder than his pop output. I wouldn't put it past him for that to be a disingenuous answer in order to make critics and the old guard feel more kindly towards him.

	Then why wasn't it played on the 2007 reunion tour?

	After all he said in the 80's and 90's, I don't believe him. His contradictions already posted of past threads are legendary. Iván

	Who'd have thought Phil Collins, the drummer for Genesis at the peak of their progressive era would enjoy prog of all things!

	Phil Collins did a long interview on the YES network in NYC (The Yes network is a funny name as it has nothing to do with the band---it is the network for all things NY Yankees) But it also has adult style interview shows. He was asked what he thought was the most perfect representation of a Genesis song---and without a beat--he says, "Supper's Ready"!!! Would not have thought that great prog song was on Phil's mind at all.
