>>>Phil Collins says he is quitting music and believes "no one will miss me".
Collins, who lives in Switzerland, insists he is happy to be "written out of the script entirely" now that he has dodgy hearing and his hands are no longer able to grip a pair of drumsticks.
The singer and drummer no longer wants to be a pop star, play gigs or even be Phil Collins. "I don't think anyone's going to miss me," he told FHM Magazine. "I'm much happier just to write myself out of the script entirely..."
The former Genesis drummer went on to sell over 150 million records as a solo artist and play live with Led Zeppelin.
Last autumn he released a collection of faithfully re-recorded Motown standards called Going Back. He added: "I know that when I did interviews it came across like I could do everything, but I've never actually felt like that. I went through all my own VHS stuff recently and found mountains of old interviews with me and it was very, very hard to watch. I barely recognised the person I saw from that time.
