35yrs and still dealing with pain of an abusive stepfather and mother. Physical and emotional. But that's ok. Cause it gave me what I needed. Married for 20+ years. Father of 3. Oldest is 20, youngest 11. Still at their side. And married to their mum. I'd rather be rich than wealthy.
My parents beat me for nothing every day, and eventually my mother left me. I'm 51 and these wounds are still hurting. This song is so sad and brings back all those painful memories 😢... And I always live through it very strongly when I see violence against children..
I'm sorry. I know is hard. Is kind of the same for me when I hear this song. The videoclip shows very well the feeling of all poeple that had to live that situation.
Oh, man, I feel for you. I have never been physical hurt, but I have been ignored. I hope you got a person you have got something special to talk to.

I am so sorry for you Ekke sometimes songs like this can be upsetting. Thinking of you.
@@jenniferjones188 thank you dear Jennifer! 🙏
Goosebumps everywhere. To all the rejected children.
Thank you.
Dedicated to anyone that is haunted by a terrible childhood. Dedicated to anyone that has a difficult relationship with their father. The pain is hard to describe but this song does help…… thanks Phil !
Murray Head - Pity The Child is good song too about childhood.
What helps about this song? He walked out because he was living in fear, then came back and was blamed for not loving living in fear... then he gave in to survive like a slave.
My dad ignored me, he to puffed up with pride,
@@8lifeisamovie8 Ah yes, from the classic hit musical: Chess!
@@mikeb3172 What helps about this song is knowing that others have gone through the same thing, there's some comfort in that.
Anyone can be a father,but it takes a real man to be a dad. Best wishes.
Sad but true!
True
comment deserves 8 k likes in 8 years as it is.
My Dad was a true father and a true man, I know he's looking down on me whenever I listen to Phil's music. I love you dad, R.I.P 🥀🥀💪
Uncomplete thoughts...
All Genesis songs are masterpieces....
Vous avez parfaitement raison.
C est pourquoi, Genesis est le plus grand et le plus important groupe musical de tous les temps .
@@jeff-bg2fn nous sommes bien d'accord 😁
@@lilyfelicis merci.
Phil Collins confessed, that he misstyped on his Iphone back in the 1990s, as he was texting his friends about the band name: „Hey Guys, what about calling our band Genesis (instead of Geniuses).“
The iPhone was shocked by this mistake and turned into a standart-keyboard phone again to avoid such mistakes due to touchscreen. Then Apple came and took this idea and re-invented the iPhone again.
Happy days!

Well the key to my survival
Was never in much doubt
The question was how I could keep sane
Trying to find a way out
Things were never easy for me
Peace of mind was hard to find
And I needed a place where I could hide
Somewhere I could call mine
I didn't think much about it
'Til it started happening all the time
Soon I was living with the fear everyday
Of what might happen that night
I couldn't stand to hear the crying
Of my mother, and I remember when
I swore that, that would be the last they'd see of me
And I never went home again
They say that time is a healer
And now my wounds are not the same
I rang the bell with my heart in my mouth
I had to hear what he'd say
He sat me down to talk to me
He looked me straight in the eyes
He said:
You're no son, you're no son of mine
You're no son, you're no son of mine
You walked out, you left us behind
And you're no son, you're no son of mine
Oh, his words how they hurt me, I'll never forget it
And as the time, it went by, I lived to regret it
You're no son, you're no son of mine
But where should I go,
And what should I do
You're no son, you're no son of mine
But I came here for help, oh I came here for you
Well the years they passed so slowly
I thought about him every day
What would I do, if we passed on the street
Would I keep running away
In and out of hiding places
Soon I'd have to face the facts
We'd have to sit down and talk it over
And that would mean going back
They say that time is a healer
And now my wounds are not the same
But I rang that bell with my heart in my mouth
I had to hear what he'd say
He sat me down to talk to me
He looked me straight in the eyes
He said:
You're no son, you're no son of mine
You're no son, you're no son of mine
When you walked out, you left us behind
And you're no son, you're no son of mine
Oh, his words how they hurt me, I'll never forget it
And as the time, it went by, I lived to regret it
You're no son, you're no son of mine
But where should I go and what should I do
You're no son, you're no son of mine
But I came here for help, oh I was looking for you
You're no son, you're no son of mine, oh
You're no son, ha yeah, ha yeah, ha yeah, ha yeah
You're no son, you're no son of mine, oh, oh
😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
Sometimes the unloved children become the best parents.
my brother found that he saw me so different to his other siblings... in swore no more hurt...
True
Sometimes...
This song means alot to me. Phil Collins is one of my favourite artists from this era.. My family went through domestic violence and we all, Mum, brother and myself left him behind, but like in this song my Father blamed us, he was never wrong, right up to his passing 4 years ago.. I gave him so many chances to appreciate what he did to us, but never did. I wrote him off and didn't speak to him 3 years before he died.
What a heart touching voice... Phil Collins... You are a truly unique Legend
It stir the childhood memories when growin g up
@@siaswatt 1
I love Phil Collins, thank you Dad for introducing me to him. You're no longer here but I am forever grateful for the things you did for me including introducing me to such incredible music 💪💪💪
My dad also passed and I keep.listebing music he loved it Just feels Good :)
i can only hope to introduce this to my child... god bless you bro.
@@rafaeltiano cheers dude 👍💪
The music introduced to us by our cherished parents is music that never loses its beauty or magic, and connects us to them in our heart each time we hear it.
Weird to comment this under this exact song...
Listening to this song and reading some of the comments from people sharing their stories is making me feel very emotional. I don't care what anyone says I love Phil Collins and Genesis!! To all the mean people out there leave my Phil alone!!
gotta love phil and genesis :)
Es tut weh, zu sehen, wie so ein brillianter Sänger alt und schwach wird...😔 mein ganzes Leben haben seine Lieder mich begleitet. Möge er noch lange seine Stimme brillieren lassen können...😊
Ganz Deiner Meinung 🤔 ich persönlich, finde die geplanten Live Auftritte nicht gut 🤔
Mir geht es genauso. Seine Musik begleitet mich schon immer. Er ist einfach ein wundervoller Künstler. ❤️
@@wolfgang8818 Die aktuellen Genesis-Gigs sind großartig, und Phils Stimme ist von Tag zu Tag besser gewordenen! Ich hoffe sehr, dass die Tour wie geplant fortgesetzt werden kann und im kommenden Jahr vielleicht doch Konzerte in Europa hinzukommen.
I was the child running away, looking for answers. Now I can understand how it is to be a father, nobody is free of these situations when you say something that can hurt a child's heart.
May all abused souls here find their peace
👍
Respect ✊
Lyrically this is at its best - I was rejected by my parents.. I can relate to this so much - makes me cry
Phil Collins for me, is definitely up there in the top 5 artists of all time
+Jack Roberts
Definitely man. He was great on a band, by his own and even making music for Disney. What a genius!
nothing more to say!! :)
Definitely agree =D
Do you mean Genesis, Jack?
Agreed
This one gives me shivers down my spine. It's a really strong track. Probably one of my favourite songs by Genesis.
Brilliant, I relate to it!!!
So true so good 😊
The whole album is a masterpiece.
Yeah-We Can't Dance album is a classic!
"Fading Lights" became their beautiful and very powerful swan song...
I like a musiques ! 💞
I’m the black sheep
Of my family (married the opposite religion and failed) but my father was and is always there for me ❤
Respect to all survivors out there I left home at 13 in 1997 been through more miles and more lifetimes than most people could even imagine I appear like a grizzled grown man with a story but inside I'm just a broken kid that needs love and never got it even as an adult.
I feel you. I ran away from my father's home age 13 in '93. Never went back. Found my mum, spent 9 months with her 14-15. Had to leave there too. Was passed around extended family like unwanted baggage till I found my home on the streets of Byron Bay age 15-18. A lifetime of violence, abuse, neglect, abandonment- scars that others can't see but that haunt me day & night & have caused unbearable, seemingly never ending suffering. I'm 46 now, I feel I've lived a thousand lifetimes, & experiences most could never understand & that generally I wouldn't wish them to experience. Now & then I come back this & similar songs - I guess just to find comfort that some one somewhere also understands... ❤ to all who do!
@@anikajain571 We're still here though darlin keep on keeping on ❤️
Обнимаю всех вас! 😢❤
I love you ❤️
So sorry .iv been there .we get scared to trust .love .but times change .either stay prisoner or choose freedom .❤
1991 what a wonderful year for music!! I never forget Genesis! Thank you for this masterpiece 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Soory for all Children ...........
thank you father. you are amazing to me....i am blessed to have you.
When I first watched this video, I cried so much and all those bad memories flooded my mind.
My childhood was horrible, I lived in fear of my parents and still to this day, I am scared from my early days.
Beautiful song.
“They say that time is a healer
And now my wounds are not the same”
I agree and now I finally found peace with my father until is too late. He is 75 years now and we love each other after almost 40 years
Back when music was made for the art and was allowed to be longer than 2 minutes 35 second and still got played on the radio.
Thank God they played this on Absolute Rock FM recently 🙏🏻💞
As a musician at heart I wish I had the ability to reach so many people and help them in difficult times with songs like these. Music truly is a gift.
This song is so depressing yet so awesome at the same time
I wonder how a band singing about this kind of things could sell so many records...
Jérôme Nicolas Because there's not only joy on our lives. Lots of people have gone through what he says on the song or wanted to do so.
yes, you're right, it's not as if my parents had ever been abusive.
Well put and a truly great song from the best band ever
Don't love darkness. Love Christ sacrifice for the forgiveness of sins// God bless you//
2020 ... This song is a timeless masterpiece
Ich gebe dir vollkommen Recht ein zeitloses Meisterwerk.
I m))!!!!!!
Agreed. The amount of recognisable songs he has is incredible that withstood test of time! ✌
Es ist wirklich ein Meisterwerk... 🍻
Я !!!!!! это шедевр
Absolute Classic. One of the best Genesis songs of any formation.
This song touches my scars...
I am the eldest of three brothers and I always felt responsible for them, our father was an alcoholic and violent man; he was looking for any excuse to leave the house and go drinking.
Many nights, we spent not knowing if he was going to be okay, or if someone would come home in the morning to bring us the news that he had died... in one of his usual bar fights.
When he arrived at two, three or four in the morning, my mother always waited for him (she loved him despite everything), undressed him and helped him shower, and gave him a plate of hot food.
No matter what I did to please my father, he never seemed to be happy with me and never missed an opportunity to let me know, it was common for him to make fun of me and say something hurtful. He always let me down, breaking his promises.
With time and the advancement of his alcoholism, he became more violent. I remember once, on Mother's Day, after giving to our mom a gift, suddenly and without knowing why, he punched her in the face and left her with a black eye.
I started to wish at night that he wouldn't come back to our house... and I stayed up many times, because of my brothers and my mother, because I was scared for them, and that made me stay alert.
Sometimes, crying, I asked God to take him away and never come back.
I loved my father... but I couldn't take this situation anymore.
One night I heard him arrive... And then there was only silence. My mother hadn't stayed to wait for him that time, and she was sleeping. But hearing nothing, I had a bad feeling...
I went to my parents' room and found him on top of my mother, trying to force her to have sex. He was holding her by the neck and hitting her, but she didn't stop fighting.
What could I do at that moment?
He was a thirty-five year old man and I was only thirteen...
I ran towards him and rammed him; I hit him so hard with my shoulder that I knocked him off the bed. I don't know where I got the strength from.
He got up furious and wanted to hit me, but the shame took over him and he started crying, he dressed quickly, apologized to us and left the house.
I never left my home, as the protagonist of this song did. I stayed to take care of my mother and my siblings, and as soon as I was old enough to work I took care of everything.
My father left us permanently, at that moment, he abandoned our mother and left. Many years passed before I was able to forgive him. I recently started talking to him again.
We don't have a great relationship, but I still have affection for him.
Time and the ability to forgive can heal a man's heart.
i lived through the same with my father. he was lost in his addiction after leaving the paras, spent many years overseas leaving my mother and me and sister alone. turned out my mother was a bit of a flirt and i was left alone and my sister had to raise me. i once caught my mother giving oral sex to my sisters boyfriend. i was 7. my parents seperated and i went with my dad and step mum and my sis stayed with my mother. my dad got better thanks to my step mother. he used to rob my piggy bank for scotch. even got a evening job at the pub he drank in to pay his bar tab. so we moved away. he is sobar now. but as a young child i missed my dad. im only now getting him back
Your story is so touching,but all is well brother, God is watching.🙏🙏.
👍
That was moving. Thanks for sharing. Thanks to God I had a good relationship to my father without violence. But I met people that lived through similar stories than you.
You're a man of honor.
Genesis such a talented band with amazing songs
+MsFanmail they are!
So so true x
Diane, this song could have been rote for my brother and I.
I had the privilege to see Phil Collins in Dubai when he did the retirement tour. The man is a Marvell. Xx

I haven't talked to my father in 20 years. This video hits home.
like me
I haven't talked to my father in 23 years.. and i am 23 years old.
@@gokumetrix80 omg feel you😋
Hadn't ever talked to my father and now he's dead
@@zawarchaudry4886 mine too..Do you have regrets? :-(
This song reminds me of turning up to see my grandma age 13 on my own after being in Northern Ireland for 4 years. He opened the door and said 'who are you'. He died suddenly in September. I am torn between pain and sheer anger.
The early nineties - when pop music still ruled.
And the 80's
The cinematography... You can almost feel his stress and emotions ;-;
This might not be one of the most well know Genesis songs, but one of their best, Phil Colin's brings such emotion to this song.
Sanuja Rajasinghe Invisible Touch is awful. Mediocre album too with an exception of maybe Domino
Oh that one is known like shit over here. All-time airplay back then - even in the mid 2000s
for me too
I bloody love this song. I didn't discover it until I was about 18-19. So 1999-2000. Love Genesis and Mike & The Mechanics aswell as Phils solo stuff.
Też uwielbiam.
And where you from?
I ve read a lot of the comments below & my heart goes out to the many of you who have suffered such things . May you find happiness , solace & peace , you deserve it . Chas .
genesis masterpiece
I love this song, but it chokes me up....'' but I came here for help, oh i was looking for you'' and still got rejected by his father for walking out in the past. I feel so bad for the son, lost and confused living with the regret for running away from his abusive father. Even after obtaining the courage to return. His heart in his mouth as he pressed the bell.....just damn......brilliant song writing.
I can relate to all of this. My father was an abusive alchoholic and time never healed my wounds... I did not even visit him at the hospital when he was dying of cancer, or went to his funeral. Now he is dead, buried and I am still numb and wish I had a father who was able to show he cared in his living years... (I am sure he wanted/did) Its no hope of ever getting that fulfilled. All I can do now is to try to do the best for my own sons.
Awesome album .... I love it still in 2024 ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
My God I love this song, its a really powerful story and you can feel all the emotions, a true classic.
I'm so lucky to have fantastic parents.
you and me both!
Ich kotz gleich
Yea cant replace my parents i love them😊
All Praise the one true God Phil lol
Just was great music
I worked on this video with Genesis. You could feel the emotion on the set.
oh really ? sounds very intresting. (: How was it to work with Phil, Mike and Tony ?
What an honor, what a thrill, that must have been a beautiful and strong experience.
Great Martin!!!
Amazing!
Was the god of drums
Chester Thompson on drums in this ?
I have grown to love this man,
Honesty, regret, loss, adoration and a cheeky spot on the drums
I have to agree- massive 80s icon
And Tony and Mike?
There is no rule book when you become a parent, you just do the best you can with the knowledge you've got, some people suck at it, others excel. Be the best you you can be, and hopefully you'll leave a wonderful legacy.
Thank you Genesis and Phil Collins for being the story book of my life - always! ❤
All Songs With Best Phil Collins And Genesis Are Timeless Masterpieces
I never understood this song when I was just a child but now I understand it all. Very moving.
One of the best ever made!
By far one of best Genesis songs ever :-)
I remember watching this at my 12th or 13th birthday, it was approx 4am and on an all night music channel, I'm now 37 and still love this song so much. Genesis, one of the greatest.
+Tanzman78 Me too ... listening this on the radio when I was about 17... and been like that boy but it passed away thanks God!!! :) and now it's fine! :)))
Me too I got this album for my 10th birthday :) Genesis
Tanzman78 like me 🙂 im 37 now
Love English
Love English Norfolk feeling fine today
Göttlich,wie eh und je .Love you oll
My brother and I used stay with my Dad every second week. He hated our existence, and would rather not see us at all. He bashed us and did all matter of sadistic things to us. Constantly told, he hated us. Remember hearing this song at 10yrs old, on a Sunday morning in Australia, whilst staying at his place. It certainly hit home. Tough to listen to, but it’s a very moving song.
Very powerful song. Still resonates with me so many years after a troubled childhood. Bless everyone who is here sharing their stories ❤
This song Always gives me the strength to go on. Even if life throws you back in your horrible past and childhood. Thanks Genesis !!!
"We can't dance" best album ever... Magical
This track really gets me, and I had a great relationship with my dad. Must be heartbreaking for those who didn’t or still don’t. Why are so many guys angry all the time?!!
Fantastic song for someone who experienced this emotion. Phil one hell of a singer and songwriter
This is for all fathers, even when our son took the wrong path,.He is always my son and I love him.
I have been a fan of Phil Collins for over 40 years and I went to my first concert in high park a few years ago and his voice and looks have no changed, Phil Collins is the best and greatest song now as he was years ago.
Keep it up
+ Genesis, as this is is a Genesis song lol
How about them and their projects outside of it like the great: Mike + the Mechanics??
Hits as hard as it did back in the day
Genesis is one of the best Bands in the World. And Phil is simply a f**king Genius #Phil4Ever
Love Phil's drumming on this. So simple but spot on.
Senin de profil resmin beni acıktırıyor dostum. 😁
One of my favourites of all time.
You can feel the pain in the lyrics. Amazing song
It tskes a human being to actually become a father , not a Demon. A Demon is not a father.
one of best Genesis songs ever :)
Excelente
Tema
Love
De la Época de Oro Excelente letra y sobre todo el. Ritmo es Único Inolvidable es lo primero que llega al fondo de tu ser.
Such an intense song and video. I've got a friend that has lived through something like what this song tells. Thankfully, time was in fact a healer and her family is again united and happy, they left all those dark days behind.
Thank you for this Song Phil!!! Michael Matthias Frohn Mühlstroh und Jesus Christus!!! 😂❤❤❤!!! Overwehlming!!! Wunderbar!!! You know what my Father Herbert Josef Frohn did to me!!! He said you are no son of mine!!! Wunderschön!!!
The Queen's favourite song at the moment.
this song is so real to me keeps me saine keeps me grounded makes me a better father in every way i had a shit father now i have a child and she is the world to me i die for her music helps alot thank you for this one
👨👦❣
Being a child and being a parent are completely different. Glad you know the treasure you have.
Masterpiece of Genesis! Long life for this guys of the band!
Amazing song Genesis is one of the most talented groups Phil is amazing and always has so much emotion in his music you can tell it's his art
What a strong piece of music! Still one of my favorites.
Genesis most serious and powerful song so love this group
MsFanmail me too. I am so in love with Genesis, everybody in the band contributed with such a strong and unique manner. Some time ago I didn`t like the Albums after the departure of Steve Hackett, but even a lot of the commercial songs in the eighties are fantastic, this is in particular
- _oh, his words how they hurt me, I'll never forget it_
Dein vater war dein vater du bist du 👍
This sentence is my favorite part.
But I came here for help, oh I came here for you
same I can say ...I will never forget ...
@@pinobalducci1899 aber es gibt Aussagen, die Du nie vergessen wirst ...seine letzten Worte als er in meinem Arm verstarb... Du hast versagt ...
Goosebumbs every where!!! 😂❤❤❤!!!
The way the chorus comes recklessly crashing in after the ominous, intense buildup perfectly illustrates the helplessness and bewilderment of a paternally abused child. Phil has said the song wasn't written from experience as he had a very happy childhood, which makes the band's empathic artistry even more affecting.
makes you wonder where he got it from then, if it wasnt from experience, because man for those of us who walked that road, it resonates like a muthaf.....
Play it loud
Play it proud
What a song
A very powerful song!
Genesis will never die
No but the bad dad's will boom xx
that time (80s to early 90s) was magical in every way! Unfortunately, we only notice this in retrospect
Such a great song. Phil Collins is a legend.
This song hits home for me. A great song but very emotional. Brings back alot of painful memories
Ppp
You can't do better. The voice, the sense of melody, the nerv... Brilliant musician with an awesome career. Long live, dear Phil! We appreciate you so much!!!
Shout out to the guys who had to hear those words from their dad's.
Or mothers.
love this powerful song...love Genesis forever
Great song. makes me wonder how many people are going through similar crap
More than you can imagine. People should be submitted to a psychological examination, because there are more abusers out there than people fit to procreate.
You are so right.. tragically..
My friend was one of them she had a bad childhood lucky i had a great one
Песня на века. Столько эмоций в одной песне, просто через край. Бесподобная операторская работа
это точно
true will win ! vivat russia ! history happen again ! west and ukraine are fascistic !
What a tremendous voice and a powerful song. Genesis were truly an outstanding band!
The Genesis is my favorite groupband.
wow. still powerful all these years.
Not heard this great song for 30 years now listening really haunting but a great song the words send chills down my spine Phil Collins is a legend
This song definitely helped me through all the childhood trauma 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼 Thanks phil🌈💖🙏🏼
I love Phil Collins grew up listening to his music still listen to his songs on cassette tape I’m old fashioned lol can’t beat the older music
Legend!!!!
I from Polen, and despite i speak on English just medium, I feel a feelings. When I read lyrics in my language, I cryed. (sorry, if i bad wrotte, but i can't ;) )
Language is no barrier you did well
2:33 the melody feels incredibly beautiful
