He said that we shouldn't vote for the tory party because then Phil Collins would come back from Switzerland and live with us, and I think he simply said he was shit a couple of times. Nothing too bad by Noel's standards, you should see what Kaiser Chiefs get
Also, correct me if I'm wrong, but Phil Collins hasn't written that much in the past 20 years has he? Or maybe he has but it was just MOR shite about as far away as Genesis' great early prog as is possible. Then again, only heard the odd tune.

With the two songs it's not just chords, there's similarities in the structure and main melodies. It's really pretty obvious. And I couldn't really see Bon Jovi ripping off Oasis, either, but that's obviously happened...
EDIT: Oli, found you some quotes!
"People ****ing hate cunts like Phil Collins, and if they don't — they ****ing should"
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Why did he sell so many records in the '80s? I mean, ****ing hell"
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Vote Labour. If you don't and the Tories get in, Phil Collins is threatening to come back from Switzerland and live here — and none of us want that." (on the 2005 General election)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"You can't kill the anti-Christ"
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
""Phil Collins knows he can't say anything about me because I'm the ****ing bollocks and that's the thing that does his head in, and the fact that he's bald."
Still not as bad as what he says about some other people.
