Hits (Phil Collins album)

Hits (stylized as ...Hits), released in 1998 and again in 2008, following the success of "In the Air Tonight" on the Cadbury ad campaign, is the only greatest hits collection of Phil Collins studio recordings. The collection included fourteen Top 40 hits, including seven American number 1 songs, spanning from the albums Face Value (1981) through Dance into the Light (1996). One new Collins recording, a cover of Cyndi Lauper's "True Colors", also appeared on the collection and was a popular song on adult contemporary stations. ...Hits was also the first Phil Collins album to include four songs originally recorded for motion pictures (all of them U.S. number 1 hits) as well as his popular duet with Philip Bailey, "Easy Lover" (a UK number 1 hit).

In 1998, the album reached number 1 in the United Kingdom and number 18 in the United States. On 4 August 2008, it became the number 1 album on the New Zealand RIANZ album chart. In July 2012, the album re-entered the U.S. charts, reaching number 6 on the Billboard 200 when the album price was deeply discounted very briefly by Amazon.com. It has sold 3,429,000 in the US as of July 2012.

    PLAYLIST TIME:

    Bro. Bill

    by: Cactus

    People said it was cocaine
    People claimed it was gin
    I know the girl and the [dew-house] man
    That done my brother in
    Chorus
    They put the last clean shirt
    On my poor brother Bill
    They put the last clean shirt
    On my poor brother Bill
    They found him in the back seat
    Of an old abandoned Ford
    [Catch] the hand of my brother Bill
    It was a stiff as a running board
    [chorus]
    The preacher said, he's gone now
    Gone to another place
    They lowered him down into the ground
    I felt a tear trickle down my face
    [chorus]
    The preacher said, he's gone now
    Gone to another place
    They lowered him down into the ground
    I felt a tear trickle down my face
