Phil Collins puts down his drumsticks and quits music for good.
PHIL Collins has quit music for good after developing hearing problems, a dislocated vertebra and nerve damage in his hands from his 40-year career playing drums.
The Easy Lover hitmaker also thinks people are sick of him and his music.
“It’s a good time to stop,” said the star, who has sold more than 150 million records.
“I look at the MTV Music Awards and I think: ‘I can’t be in the same business as this’.
“I don’t really belong to that world and I don’t think anyone’s going to miss me. I’m much happier just to write myself out of the script entirely.
“I’m not worried about not being able to play the drums again, I’m more worried about being able to cut a loaf of bread safely or building things for my kids.”
