Not one comment? That’s surprising! Phil Collins wrote this album Face Value back in the early 80’s after Peter Gabriel left Genesis and Collins continued his solo work. The song itself is obvious. A poor family living in a small home struggling to get through the winter. Yet the outlook of the story teller is optimistic. With so many of Phil Collins songs being hits and ten of those reaching #1 on the board there are so many deep tracks to be explored by both the new and older generations. Many of these deep tracks are hidden gems and that’s usually how I find a favorite song when listening to a new band. So don’t just get hung up on a bands hits or you risk missing out on others to be found.
