Phil Collins - In the Air Tonight drums backing track
Built for players who want to hear the groove more clearly and get to practice without detours.
About this version
Some drum parts make sense on paper and still feel odd under your hands. This version is for closing that gap a bit faster.
Useful for
working on groove and feel
Useful for
cleaning up fills and transitions
Useful for
repeating the section before the section that usually goes wrong
A simple way in
A version for hearing the groove, fills, and transitions more clearly while keeping the shape of the original song intact.
Start with the tricky section, not the whole song. A few good repetitions usually tell you more than one rushed pass from top to bottom.
Once it feels settled, go back to the full arrangement and check whether it still holds together. That is usually where the real answer is.
Notes
"In the Air Tonight" by Phil Collins (HQ) Year: 1981 Album: Face Value Lyrics: I can feel it coming in the air tonight, oh Lord I've been waiting for this moment all my life, oh Lord Can you feel it coming in the air tonight, oh Lord, oh Lord Well if you told me you were drowning, I would not lend a hand I've seen your face before my friend, but I don't know if you know who I am And I was there and I saw what you did, I saw it with my own two eyes So you can wipe off that grin, I know where you've been It's all been a pack of lies And I can feel it coming in the air tonight, oh Lord I've been waiting for this moment all my life, oh Lord I can feel it in the air tonight, oh Lord, oh Lord And I've been waiting for this moment all my life, oh Lord, oh Lord Well I remember, I remember, don't worry, how could I ever forget It's the first time and the last time we ever met But I know the reason why you keep your silence up, no you don't fool me Because the hurt doesn't show, but the pain still grows Some stranger to you and me I can feel it coming in the air tonight, oh Lord I've been waiting for this moment for all my life, oh Lord I can feel it coming in the air tonight, oh Lord I've been waiting for this moment all my life, oh Lord, oh Lord I can feel it coming in the air tonight, oh Lord And I've been waiting for this moment all my life, oh Lord, oh Lord I can feel it coming in the air, I can feel it coming in the air I've been waiting for this moment all my life, my life I can feel it coming in the air, I can feel it coming in the air I've been waiting for this moment all my li-i-i-i-i-ife I've been waiting for this moment all my life, my life -- (C) 1981 Atlantic/Virgin #PhilCollins #InTheAirTonight #thebestofphilcollins2020
