| Phil Collins – In The Air Tonight Lyrics
| 3 years ago
|
|
My interpretation would be that Phil is meeting a person who he witnessed a long time ago drowning someone (if you told me you were drowning, I would not lend a hand) a long time ago. Phil plans to avenge the death (I’ve been waiting for this moment for all my life), perhaps by killing them. This might indicate that the person who was drowned was someone close to Phil, a friend or perhaps a family member. |

The song is about people (probably record label or producers) wanting Nik to be like this, be like that, be better than this. (Talk tougher than James Cagney, act smarter than Charlie Chan) |

About some sort of cult, who recruits a man who is struggling (lost in space, nowhere to go), and has been through a lot (resistance is so low). He is driven into the cult, which has different 'faces' to appeal to different people. The man nearly falls into the cult (for a moment they were in my body, they were under my skin) but after hearing his inner voice (I heard a voice, it said ‘help me’ then I realised it was me) and leaves. The song also reflects that you might think that you are ‘going places’ with the cult, you are not. ‘Close your eyes and let yourself unwind’ might possibly refer to praying and would certainly but a more explicitly atheist perspective on the song but I don’t think so |
