Long Long Way to Go
1985
Painful realisation that for some people war in another part of the world is just "bad news", never realizing that behind their 5 minute entertainment there is the death and suffering of other people. But sure, switch it off....

Another Day in Paradise
Album: ...But Seriously - 1989
Così come il brano Man on the Corner, scritto da Collins ai tempi in cui faceva parte dei Genesis, Another Day in Paradise affronta il tema dei senzatetto, con uno stile musicale completamente diverso da quello utilizzato dal cantante fino a quel momento.

Supper's Ready
[1972]
Tony Banks/Phil Collins/Peter Gabriel/Steve Hackett/Michael Rutherford
Da/From Foxtrot
"There was one particular incident that gave me the inspiration for Supper's Ready. There was this room at the top of Jill's [his wife] parents' house. The room was the coldest part of the house. I always used to get the shivers when I went in there. It was covered in strong purple and turquoise wallpaper. Everything was bright purple and turquoise.

I don't know how to explain it - it was as if she had had a fit, or something. I experienced a sense of evil at that point - I saw another face in her face.

Inspired by the Warrington bombings of 1993, similarly to ''Long Long Way to Go'' it discusses that people can get too familiar with violent events when they are part of the daily news, but when it affects them personally, that's a different story...
