Why do today, what you can do tomorrow? Joined: 7 November 2008 Posts: 10,466 User: 7,645	Did Radio 1 not playlist 'All For You' and 'Someone to Call My Lover' in 2001? I certainly remember them being played at the time?

I’m sure this was Phil Collins last big era on radio 1 too!

His next era got a top 10 and one more top 40 single in 1993, not sure if it was supported maybe to a lesser extent. I’m going by the fact “Another Day In Paradise” is his last ‘classic’ single imo.
