Phil Collins: 'Something Happened On The Way to Heaven' Live in Berlin

Venue: Waldbühne Location: Berlin, Berlin, Germany Date: July 15, 1990

In July 1990, Phil Collins was riding high on the success of his album '...But Seriously,' which had just been released the previous year. This live performance of 'Something Happened On The Way to Heaven' captures Collins at a pivotal moment in his career, as he was transitioning from being primarily known as the drummer for Genesis to a full-fledged solo superstar. The Seriously, Live! World Tour showcased his dynamic on-stage presence and deep connection with the audience, making this concert at the stunning Waldbühne in Berlin a true highlight. Interestingly, Collins' heartfelt ballad resonated widely, with its themes of resilience and personal struggle echoing the intense socio-political climate of the time. It’s a reminder of how music can unite us during challenging moments—a sentiment Phil has always embraced.
