Against All Odds

 

"How can I just let you walk away, just let you leave without a trace, When I stand here taking every breath with you, ooo wee ooo".

It’s the ooo wee ooo that makes this song. Phil ran out of lyrics by line two such was his emotional turmoil and how could he fill the empty bars? What could sum up his despair? Nothing, but the raw emotion of ooo wee ooo. Make no mistake, Phil has been through tough times and he knows the dark side – this song is a tribute to those heady days. You’ve left and now look at me, happy now? Nobody has captured that moment like Collins. You can whine all day about “I love you and you please come back” but where is the honesty in that? No, look at the fucking state I’m in is a more accurate if less noble statement to make. You were too good for her anyway Phil.
