Fred Taylor's favorite song...

True, Phil Collins has more talent musically than the majority of what passes for music today. I can see "In The Air Tonight" as a motivating song to play before a game.

Taylors gives a great interview. If only we had this guy earlier in his career.

Pardon my ignorance for not knowing but does anyone know the favorite songs of the other Patriots players? Seems like it would be a great mix CD to put together at some point.

Vince Wilfork's favorite is Cheeseburger in Paradise

This thread annoys me. I've got that song in my head now and I can't get rid of it.

Picture yourself as a young Tom Cruise, on a train alone with Rebecca DeMornay, and see if that helps make the song become less annoying.

I don't think that was ever proven...

Then again that's a good song for anyone to like...damnit now I can't get it out of my head!

Hey, it's working! Thanks a lot!

You'd think more recievers would like this song...

YouTube - In the Air tonight LIVE- phil collins

play the video, and picture yourself as Fred Taylor standing in the tunnel waiting to run out...at the Superbowl....crowd going crazy... 11 years and finally your chance.

I just gave myself chills.

As a drummer- I think Phil had some good beats/sound.
The song has a good buildup.
He had some cheesy stuff but some really good stuff too.

Its all about the beats....rap, reggae...metal...whatever....

Pre-game beats elevate the testosterone...better for battle.

:agree:

I was about to say, "Odd song for a running back, isn't it?"

It has one of the greatest breakup lines ever :

"If You Told Me You Were Drowning, I Would Not Lend a Hand"

How can you NOT like that ???

Phil Collins is a genious. I don't understand all the hate he gets.

Hmmm....I am going to go out on a limb and say that Wilfork, Taylor, and others may not be referring to the original Miami Vice/Phil Collins version, but the 2Pac remix - which by the way is a pretty sweet song to get pumped with!

I'll never hear this other version but when Wilfork's WEEI interview starts on Mondays they play the original and he seems into it, never referring to any other version.

Well then I defer...I do not live in the area so I don't catch the WEEI intro/interviews.
I just couldn't picture 20-something year old guys listening to Phil. Perhaps they stop at In the Air Tonight and don't listen to Sussusudio or Against All Odds.

Collins was actually very good through "Hello I Must be Going" (first 2 CDs). After that . . . not so much.

Well at least his favorite song isn't ....
