The kid looks like his dad too from old pictures. I've been a huge fan for 38 years, he's not my kid but I got tears in my eyes for being so proud of him.
@@lukaradosavljevic5677 , Luke that was another wife and when he was super busy. He has Always been a great dad. He remarried Orianne because he wanted his family back and have more time with his kids. Nicholas would not be touring with his dad if Phil was a bad dad which Phil is not. He has always been a celebrity who had better values than most. For example not into drugs, etc.
@@lukaradosavljevic5677 Like another commenter said - "different wife"... additionally, he did not break up via fax... she dragged the divorce demands out while he was touring and apparently a document or two that he had to sign was faxed. Go to the light bruh- you don't need to repeat every negative story you hear. PC gave his life and health for you to enjoy his music - unless you're here just to troll. Peace anyway!
Nick you are you!!! Grew up listening too your dad !!! Love Him!!! ......You son !! blow me me away with your open sty and heart!!! rock on Son!!!! Rock On!!!! .....To your Dad...Love you Sir!! ..xoxoxo
God, I was there in Cologne. He doesn´t do it because Dad wants him to; it´s his nature and his spirit. He is living the music. When Phil Collins introduced the band, Nicholas Collins smiled a lot when the old members of the crew were mentioned. He played a few mistakes but his Dad sang some false notes. I have seen couple of shows of Mr. Collins and Genesis between 1994 and 2007 (including Grand Opening Of The Color Line Arena) but this was the best. Genesis is outside; another space. This was the best because it was a private atmosphere and the band played truely powerful. And the drummer is leading it. No reason for him to hide. I think there would be many drummers his age being arrogant playing drums at a Phil Collins gig; Nicholas does love it. Thank this guy for helping his Dad keeping the music alive live on stage.
Oh people!!!! What a great experience it is to see Phil and Nic Collins together...doing so well...excellent music...this was beautiful and inspiring...such a joy to watch! Thanks for posting!!!
@@thecawdsquad875 I saw him playing during the Something Happened on the Way to Heaven intro a couple of years ago, Phil could still play if he wanted to.
I'd like to see him use more dynamics sometimes, but I'd say for his age he's an incredible player. I'm quite jealous actually--when I was learning drums at his age (in the 1970s/80s), we didn't have TH-cam or really many drum instructional videos even. There were a few of course, but to even have a VHS or Beta video player was a luxury. And this kid has his dad to teach him as well--he's obviously benefited significantly from that, as he seems to play the parts very accurately. It's also very cool that PC gets to have his son on tour with him. What a bonding experience for those two!
And to answer your request? He did in the air tonight. Check out the TH-cam "Hyde Park concert scenes. Or the whole concert. Nick played that song. And yes. He did his father very proud.
I saw him perform when Phil Collins came to the Inglewood (Los Angeles) Forum. I was very impressed at what he could do, especially at such a young age. But then, he did have an excellent live-in teacher.
Nic is a truly talented young man and a great drummer in his own right! He will forever be compared to the master performer his dad Phil but Wow can Nic play! Thanks for sharing this great drumming. I can’t imagine Phil’s pride having Nic as his tour drummer! The video of Nic playing piano and Phil sitting on the bench with him singing “You Know What I Mean” is an emotional moment and unique experience for the two to cherish for years to come. I feel privileged watching that!
Uuuuummm, maybe I am missing something his dad did with the drums...and I certainly haven't seen and heard everything but in this video Nic is far better drumming than his dad...am I wrong or misinformed?
@AlexKx.... errr mate, his dad is Phil Collins, arguably one of the top 3 drummers in the world ever. Phil does not drum much anymore due to injuries I think it was. @Kelly Bezz, the real question I want to know is if Nick can sing too.
@@petert3355 Apparently he can. Remember, Phil's "Not Dead Yet." While Nic is a great drummer, and to make it clear I think he's fantastic. No disrespect, ... I feel there is much he still needs to learn before he takes that road.
@@icoughran7068 Fair enough, though I did not get to see the "Not dead yet tour". That said, Nic does have one of the best to learn from would you agree?
So great to see Phil's son is carrying the torch of his father's talents! I'm sure Nicholas mom & dad r proud of him. I would love to hear hi sing like his dad too...
YOU GO NICK! SAW YOU IN DALLAS 9/23 ---- EXCELLENT -- I KNOW YOUR DAD IS PROUD - DON'T LET ANYONE OR ANYTHING STOP YOU!!! ONLY READ POSITIVE REVIEWS!!!! GOD BLESS
Tienes una gran responsabilidad ante toda la gente que amamos a tu padre . Sigue así mostrando que eres de una madera que no se rompe y es muy fuerte . Amo a tu padre desde antes de que nacieras .
Go ahead!!!! I know that's right!!!! Play those drums!!!! Come on now!!! He took a lot after his father! Got his talent!!! What a joy to listen!!! Phill Collins fan forever!!!!!🎶💕🎶💕
In his rig tour interview, he says he does have a band, course that's when he's not touring with his dad (th-cam.com/video/Tx2MVwFO6jQ/w-d-xo.html) His band is 5800 in Miami fiftyeighthundred.com/meet-the-band/
Jake Orr i know its not phil i was commenting on someone elses post that said nick isnt a patch on phill, my comment was "hes nick" not phil let him be who he is and stop the comparing
emma cardall He is, but there are also a lot of them out there. He was one of them who had a chance to show of his skills. Not every drummer has so famous father ;).
His dad is the best drummer-singer-songwriter ever IMHO. Better than even Henley because PC was the superior drummer, again IMHO. Nick learned the skins from the master and it shows like you said!
Eu que já era fã ardorosa de Phil, podendo ver ele ao vivo no Brasil (algo que pensei ser impossível), fiquei mais fã ainda vendo o filho seguindo os passos do pai com tanto talento. Mas penso que mais do que ter talento musical, filhos somente seguem os pais quando o admiram de verdade, pessoal e profissionalmente. Carrego com orgulho a empresa que meu pai criou, a 15 anos desde o falecimento dele. Mas só o faço pelo orgulho que tenho da pessoa que ele foi. Penso que o Nick, além do talento, deve ter consigo a imagem de um homem incrível, pois senão, como adolescente, jamais acompanharia o pai em turnê, fazendo bonito o que muita gente formada não faria. Vemos nele um compromisso incrível que vai além do talento... Talento sem compromisso, sem boa criação, sem bons exemplos, é só uma característica que não decola ninguém.... Ao Phil, meu mais profundo respeito e admiração: por ter criado um menino com tanta comprometimento (ainda ouviremos falar muito desse menino, anotem ai) e por enfrentar um palco com tantas limitações físicas! O cara é bom. É muito bom. O cara é incrível.... I was already an ardent fan of Phil Collins, but after seeing him live in Brazil (something that I thought was impossible), my admiration has grown even more! Seeing his son Nick with such talent was awsome! But I think more than having musical talent, children only follow their parents when they really admire they personally and professionally. I carry with pride the company that my father created, for 15 years since his death. But I only do it because of the pride I have of the person he was. I think that Nick, besides talent, must have the image of an incredible man with him, otherwise, as a teenager, he would never accompany his father on tour, making beautifully what many "grown people" would not do. We see in him an incredible commitment that goes beyond talent ... Talent without commitment, without good education, without good examples, is only a characteristic that does not take off anyone .... To Phil, my deepest respect and admiration: for having created a boy with so much commitment (we will still hear a lot about this boy, note there) and for facing a tour with so many physical limitations! Phil is Good. He's veeeery good. He is amazing!
Que forma tan especial y natural de tocar la batería!! Muy bien muchacho Dios te ilumine mucho!! Será como su talento lo merece y va a ser el mejor p or el mismo.
Nice one plays like his dad good to see he.s takeing after you phil hope he's does well in the future must be proud be lovely if you where up there with like the old days with Chester keep him rocking 👍
Don’t care how many times I watch this, Nic makes me happy 😃 xx
Saw them both in Toronto when Nic was 17… always thought Nic would be so proud looking out at a stadium full of people all there to see his Dad!!!!
Saw Nick play in Sydney with his dad in concert .... all I can say is WOW ! What a talent this young guy is .. a natural !
The kid looks like his dad too from old pictures. I've been a huge fan for 38 years, he's not my kid but I got tears in my eyes for being so proud of him.
Thomas...saw Phil last night in Aus...i watched Nic closely...and yep...i cried.lol...Brilliant
saw him last night - THIS KID was Out of this World!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! and he LOVES his father!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Kid has his dad’s talent. Amazing.
You’re just a complete waste d space. Fuck off.
@@SoldatDeRigel that's rude
Brunce...can you play like that? He'll no you can't! Ingest a sack of Richards!
Definitely taught by dad very talented young men.
@@SoldatDeRigel And what have you done in your life with your amazing drumming skills?
Tears for Phil, tears for a tremendous legacy we are witnessing. Very emotional watching Phil like this. But happy his son has his back. Superb.
The boy can drum 🥁.phil can rest assured he’s handed down the sticks to the right person.
The other one Simon can rip it just as well.
day will come when Nic is no longer the son of the greatest drummer in history and Phil will be the father of the greatest drummer in history.
@@errolmcinnes7938 Phil Collins was the greatest drummer in history? Really? Okay, I guess...
OMG... he has such a bright future! I can't wait to see how he comes along! Imagine him and Simon together!!
Both Simon and Nick should play drums together. That would be great I am sure.can't wait...
Phil must be so proud of Nicholas.
What a great dad.
Annette Koch Not really, he divorced his wife through a fax machine
@@lukaradosavljevic5677 , Luke that was another wife and when he was super busy.
He has Always been a great dad.
He remarried Orianne because he wanted his family back and have more time with his kids.
Nicholas would not be touring with his dad if Phil was a bad dad which Phil is not. He has always been a celebrity who had better values than most. For example not into drugs, etc.
Dude, PC retired from his entire career to be with his youngest sons when HIS wife left him...just so he could be with them. Learn your facts.
For BOTH his sons.....2. Both play drums

Im very happy to see his son following on his fathers footsteps! AWESOME drummer!😎👍
Wow, amazing. Apple doesn't fall far from the tree! Best of luck to Nick on his continued success! 👏
Nick you are you!!! Grew up listening too your dad !!! Love Him!!! ......You son !! blow me me away with your open sty and heart!!! rock on Son!!!! Rock On!!!! .....To your Dad...Love you Sir!! ..xoxoxo
obviously that young man has inherited talent, DAMN he is good.
Apple definitely didn't fall far from the tree. Absolutely brilliant
Extraordinary, my goodness. What a talent . Phil Collins must be so incredibly happy . This is special . God Bless .

Phil sitting in a chair is still a phantastic singer. His son is already a master on drums.
The camera setting made me feel like I was on a high gust cruise ship. Nice to see Phil's son playing really great on the Drums.
Wow!! That was incredible! Phil must be very proud. Nicholas has great skills, just like his dad.
Would love to see a drum duet with Chester Thompson and Nickolas!!Sad that Phil can't play to well anymore.
Phil can't play at all now. He can barely walk.
@@thecawdsquad875 I saw him playing during the Something Happened on the Way to Heaven intro a couple of years ago, Phil could still play if he wanted to.
Happy,cuz he dont try to copy his father he's just trying to be himself. I really respect this!
I'd like to see him use more dynamics sometimes, but I'd say for his age he's an incredible player.

How awesome was Nicholas on the drums. Thanks for sharing.
Jesus!!!! Nic is already sooooooo great!!!!!!! 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
Anyone else think it would be amazing to see him to "In The Air Tonight"? Y'all know what part I'm talkin' bout
I did see him perform it 3 years ago in Dublin when he was only 16, He did not disappoint . He has definitely inherited his fathers talent,
And to answer your request? He did in the air tonight. Check out the TH-cam "Hyde Park concert scenes. Or the whole concert. Nick played that song. And yes. He did his father very proud.
He did
What a duo... and Phil son is really talented!!🥁🎤😘🎤❤️❤️
And how I wish to be there to watch them!!’
This kid is ABSOLUTELY AMAZING. Way to go Nicholas.... 😍
The Kid definitely has skills. He has a good upstroke, and release with his hands. DAD must be proud!
It’s my babyyyyyyyyy😍😍😍
I saw him perform when Phil Collins came to the Inglewood (Los Angeles) Forum. I was very impressed at what he could do, especially at such a young age. But then, he did have an excellent live-in teacher.
What a buzz for Phil . He grooves like his dad . Go son .
Dude. Yes. And playing that Gretsch concert tom kit. Sounds amazing. I don’t know why more drummers don’t use them.
@@patton303 yep nice kit, but you can pull out a good sound from most top end kits.
Was lucky to see them live.
Insane!

Such a blessing to have the gifts of various skills with regard to voice ;with regard to musical . ☺️
Carry the torch...the legend continues!
Very talented young man. Can’t wait to see me on the Genesis tour Next year
Let's hope so, Been waiting since November
Thank you for uploading
YOU GO NICK! SAW YOU IN DALLAS 9/23 ---- EXCELLENT -- I KNOW YOUR DAD IS PROUD - DON'T LET ANYONE OR ANYTHING STOP YOU!!! ONLY READ POSITIVE REVIEWS!!!! GOD BLESS
what a great drummer what a great band I love it so much Phil Collins seeing them in London last year was a dream come true
Like Father, like Son❤️
#1
Cool thing about the song is, as you get older, you really don't care as much anyways, so his voice just fits the emotion regardless of age.
Now that's what I'm talkin' about!! You're awesome Nic!!!
Brawo! Jestem pod wrażeniem!
Tienes una gran responsabilidad ante toda la gente que amamos a tu padre .
Sigue así mostrando que eres de una madera que no se rompe y es muy fuerte .
Amo a tu padre desde antes de que nacieras .
Go ahead!!!! I know that's right!!!! Play those drums!!!! Come on now!!! He took a lot after his father! Got his talent!!! What a joy to listen!!! Phill Collins fan forever!!!!!🎶💕🎶💕
A legend of a legend...
You go Nicholas....your Father is your legacy too. You have the talent you are awesome!!!!
Takes after good ol' dad. Love it...
Amazing job Nick you had the absolute best teacher in the world my opinion 💖
Nic ROCKS!! Anyone would love to have their child rock the hell outa one of the best songs ever. I know I would! Go Nicholas! Go Dad! Love this!
Wow! He's phenomenal. He needs his own band, unless he is in one already. Sounds like he could do a prog band much like Genesis.
I love this comment. But what is a prog band? I never heard the term before.
@ Chad Lenz
Prog is short for progressive rock. Bands like Genesis, Pink Floyd, ELP, Yes, King Crimson are examples. Great sub-genre of rock music.
In his rig tour interview, he says he does have a band, course that's when he's not touring with his dad (th-cam.com/video/Tx2MVwFO6jQ/w-d-xo.html)
His band is 5800 in Miami
fiftyeighthundred.com/meet-the-band/
Seeing him play that Bonham fill at 1:18 really makes me want to see a head to head drum battle between Nic Collins and Jason Bonham
The Best ❤
Nicholas is a great drummer and still learning his craft. Can close your eyes and think it is Phil Collins playing the drums.
Uauuuuu filho de peixe preixinho é
Caramba. O garoto arrasa, herdou todo o talento do pai. Um espetáculo. 😍😍😍
The boys got Chops!
It doesn’t hurt the Old Man had em, too.
Fantastic work.
Passion is the key here,
Not DNA.
That kind of playing takes WORK!
That is wonderful that he is that talented and Phil pass it on down to his son that is wonderful God 🙏 bless you all
Way to go phi - to me - your the man of working as a musician, that you can be your own & helping other bands - with your gifts of music
Wow! Brilliant guy fantastic love it!.
No other word...............outstanding.
He looks like totally with Phill. Uau! Estou admirada!!!!
he is now the new drummer for his father's solo tour and possibly with Genesis.
Of course he is brilliant because he had the very best teacher and role model , Phil Collins, ❤
Just like father and son they both grew up playing the drums, i don't know what else does nic cab play. Phil played almost every instrument
Prawdziwy wirtuoz perkusji.Udał się syn Philowi.Wspamiale ich słuchać.
Sem palavras
De deixar qualquer um de boca aberta
Maravilhoso!!!
WOW 💥💥 young Collins continues his Dad's legacy 💥💥the Sticks&kit live on❣️

D'accord!
Mucho talento y encanto como el padre. Espectacular
Simplemente fascinante.
This man was born to play drums.
Fantastic for someone so young.
Nic's band, *Better Strangers* just released a new song, and Nic does fantastic on the drums. The song is called, "Change."
Que absurdo o garoto é uma fera! Incrível o filho dele é demais! Tbm com esse pai não é preciso dizer mais nada!
Desafortunadamente otra vez no pude ir !!! Me alegro por todos los que pudieron estar cerca de semejante GENIO DE LOS GENIOS...
I CAN ONLY SAY WOW WHAT A TALENT.
I am happy to be born in same time as you...
Amazing talent like dad n good looking
