""It's an ongoing thing. I have a 24-hour live-in nurse to make sure I take my medication, as I should do," Collins said. "I've had challenges with my knee. Everything that could go wrong with me did go wrong with me. I got COVID in hospital. My kidneys started to back up. Everything seemed to converge at the same time. I had five operations on my knee. Now, I've got a knee that works and I can walk, albeit with assistance, crutches, or whatever.""
""The things that are ahead for me would be, apart from just being back to being totally mobile and healthy, to maybe go in there and have a fiddle about and see if there's more music," he said. "You tend to sort of feel, That's it. I've done that. But you've got to start doing it to see if you can do it. Otherwise, you don't do it. So that's something on my horizon.""
Phil Collins is feeling his best in years and is considering a return to music. He has a 24-hour live-in nurse to ensure medication adherence and underwent five operations on his knee, restoring walking ability with assistance such as crutches. He contracted COVID while hospitalized and experienced kidney problems after excessive alcohol use following Genesis' farewell tour, resulting in months in hospital. Collins has been sober for two years. His last studio album was 2010's Going Back, consisting of Motown covers. He retains completed and unfinished studio projects and intends to explore creating new original music as mobility and health permit.
