Phil Collins - If Leaving Me Is Easy 1985 Live (Restored and near-complete w/ bonus footage)

- A great live version of If Leaving Me Is Easy, recorded at the Reunion Arena, Dallas TX, on the 29th May 1985. This was omitted from the No Ticket Required concert video, but was included on the Classic Albums: Face Value documentary in near-complete form. Also features a bonus snippet of This Must Be Love, also omitted from No Ticket Required.
There is a very long 7+ minute uninterrupted segment near the end of the documentary which only misses part of the sax intro, and a minute or so of the ending. I spliced in a part of Phil talking to the audience, which I presume was before the song in the actual concert. I also restored the intro sax using the Melbourne 85 soundboard recording, and used a bit of footage with no real home as a substitute for the intro. The audio was also balanced and normalised, since louder in the right channel and rather quiet as a whole.
In earlier parts of the documentary, small clips of the song are also present. Only when comparing side-by-side did I notice that while the same audio and performance, some had alternative camera angles (one source for instanced only focused on Phil, and the other cut away to Leland for a few seconds). I've included some of these alternate angles in the video where applicable.
I extended the ending footage out a little bit, but couldn't isolate the music when Phil commentates over it. I've left it in anyways as the concert audio is good enough to be deciphered. I added a small snippet of the ending to This Must Be Love from the same documentary after the song, since is too short to individually upload.
As for the source of the extra concert footage itself, this suggests the full tapes of other songs played but not currently available exist, such as I Don't Care Anymore, Inside Out, and Don't Lose My Number. The source appears to be composite, due to the presence of dot crawl around some of the edges where there is large contrast in colour, but still looks very good. One can only hope the full tapes surface someday and receive a proper release.

This pulls at the strings of the heart, a love lost and pain that time hasn’t fully healed.
One of THE of the (MOST UNDERRATTED) Greatest Love Songs EVER written. Can’t label it a wedding song (LOL), but still a beautiful ballad. My all time favorite Phil Collins song! 👍🏾❤️
Blah blah blah blah underrated
My favorite too, but definitely not a wedding song…this is a break up song..Trust me I know 😢

This one and ' You know what I mean" xxxxx ❤❤❤❤😊
It is one of my favorite love songs. This live cut is my favorite as well.
Broke my 💔in the 80s still breaking it now 💔😰
I can picture Phil walking down some New-York street, his scarf worn high on a chilly night, thinking of what he had just lost...
My grandmother said to me this is her favorite song
A lady of good taste.
Perhaps, one of the best songs Phil Collins ever performed live.
He can engage with an audience like no other.
Great tune. Heart breaking. Leland Sklar said this concert was his favorite and Phil was on fire. His band has just the best musicians.
Heard this song years ago and i stil love it today!!!!!!🥰
My Fav Song of His, just Everything the vocals, instruments, and Feeling all perfectly Blend......Beautiful 😊❤
one of the best ballads ever written,Phill Collins in its best.

My favourite song of Phil Collins, a masterpiece ❤
And to be fair, he was involved in a lot of masterpieces!
This is my song, leaving me with 4 children, and so sad after 26 years, I still love her to this day, i left all the hate on my latter year's, I'm 67 😢😢😢
One of my fave songs of Phil Collins ...can’t help not to cry everytime I hear it ....Love Phil! ❤️

Painful, but BEAUTIFUL at the same time, bittersweet.
Me too. So much pain. I can't just not listen. 😢
I have carried this song in my heart for over 30 years, still hits me the same way as the as the very 1st time I ever heard it
I love this song and I love Phil! I hope he's doing well!
No so well, unfortunately.
The magic of Mr Don Myrick on the saxophone at the end
It’s amazing how Phil can sound so melodic live..friggin brilliant

I think this song must be the best ballad of Phil..... The lyrics are complete awesome and romantic.. I love it so much 👍👍👍
My emotions now are connected to this song especially I am facing a heart-breaking situation we are almost close to our anniversary then she left me it was very hard for me to face the reality that we broke up it was very hard for to move on 💔💔
You can tell how much he loves this song by the way his soul speaks into it. Love 💕 this song. The Saxophone 🎷 is dreamy.
So deep,so brillant!!! Love You really Phil Collins 💖💞✨ Always

Loved this song from the first time I heard it….37 years later, it still moves me. Only those who truly feel each and every word… Mmm 🤔

Just a touch slower than the album recording, but full of passion. Beautiful.
He's so amazing live, sounds like it could be a studio recording. Thanks for bringing this to us
Studio recording on Face Value album
This song is very emotional poignant for my personal experience a great song timeless classic brilliant live WOW what a legendary singer drummer Rock on Phil Collins
I WILL NEVER FORGET THE FIRST I EVER HEARD THIS SONG, IT ALWAYS FEELS THE SAME, WHEN I HEAR THIS, THE ALTO SAX PEIRCES MY SOUL,
The late Don Myrick
This song made me realise that HE could write a song that I'd love......The best song, his best album
Love this song ❤ love u phil what a Beautiful song and voice.
I love the instrumental parts the best I was with a man for 15 years and being an older couple, it was a tough breakup. His new woman was so jealous said vile untrue things,, he even called to bury the knife deeper, it neatly killed my soul but it takes more to kill my ❤️ . It’ turned out all good though I found a man quite by accident & we’re falling in love like kids. Life is good 😊
Good for you.
O "ruim" dessa música é que ela acaba!
Queria morar nesse som!
Que viagem !
Isso é inexplicavelmente Lindo!
So true ☺️
Uma das mais belas canções/baladas da década. E olha que a concorrência era forte.
Vc tem extremo bom gosto ,fazemos parte de poucos ,mas somos únicos
THis song and Face Value is my alltime favorite up there with What's going On he sang with his heart and I felt him touched me so deeply

Oh this is so so very awesome. Im really enjoying this masterpiece so much.Thanks.😌
Todas as músicas do Phil Collins são excelentes de ouvir pois algumas dessas músicas levam lá pro passado e é isso aí muito maneiro poder voltar no tempo mesmo que brevemente!!!!
I absolutely wasn't aware you mixed all this together until I read your description, good job and a good recording that's worth listening
Thank you! The fact you didn't notice is probably a good thing, means that I didn't leave too many mistakes in ;) glad you enjoyed it!
@@genesiscentral That's what I meant!
Esse sax, doi, chora, emociona , a canção a letra a interpretação...... linda linda linda eu amei eu vivj, eu estou vivo....
SUBLIME ❤ EXCELENTE...
Una de las mejores baladas de la historia. No me canso de escucharla.
Linda demais!
Linda demais essa música e muito comovente. Love Love Love Love. 🎹❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️🌹🌹🌹💋🇧🇷
I miss you
Grandissimo pezzo
Wonderful live version of timeless breakup emotional heartbreak song
Uma lenda, Phil Collins ficará eternizado na história da música, sempre com belas canções, difícil de escolher uma música dele, porque possui muitas ❤❤❤
6:05 this part feels like the last nail for the coffin. 😢
My favorite version of this song and knew exactly what you were talking about immediately.
I adore Daryl's playing in this song.
Maravilhoso como sempre!
Perfeito como sempre!
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Very Nice Work!!!........I love this song and this live version. I saw it on YT and had to buy the DVD and did........I would love to have the whole/complete song without Phil talking at the end. If you listen to the DVD, it is one of Phil's favorites but he does not care to do it live because the audience is usually not quiet enough, so it can be enjoyed.
Somebody remembering the memories
Sure enough...
siempre que escucho esta cancion me lleno de nostalgia 💔💔
Todo lo que canta este caballero, es perfecto. Es tan sexy❤ Phil Collins FOREVER!!! 🎵🎶💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯
the second best song of Phil, the first one you choose :)
I wanna find a song like this one but I can’t, it’s the best
Que música maravilhosa, nunca vou cançar de a ouvir, basta fechar os olhos para ficarmos a pensar como o amor é maravilhoso
A very nice one
To jest tak piękne że brakuje słów aby opisać uczucie słuchając ♥️
Beautiful, old friend.💞
I'd love to hear a bit more of the bass guitar as i think it plays a significant part in what makes this song so beautiful and emotive. Great performance none the less
I disagree, this "live version" has a life of its own. The album version is a masterpiece as well.
excellent job! thanks so much!
Thanks, great job, stay safe!
Pero que me gusta mucho ouvirte cantando
Très belle balade. j'adore
Thank you for the upload
Great song
La mejor canción de Phil.....no la más masiva......como In the air tonight o Sussudio....pero para mi es mi favorita....me llega al alma. Phil Collins el mejor de todos los tiempos.
Lo amo 💓
NEC Birmingham 19frozentodeath. Phil and all his musicians were on top form.
❤❤❤❤❤
i love is music!
