My FAVORITE Phil Collins song....just moving.
This is a song that leaves me wth mixed feelings!
this is one song that will stay with me forever. i made some bad choices in my early 20's and landed up in a shelter for just over a year. ive seen the worst side of life and this song is the apitomy of homelessness . theres love anywhere you find it.
I can relate to this song very well, as i have been there and done that.....Nev e r had it as bad as these people...But , lived in a Mission back in 1980. I do remember the struggles and do remember seeing men sleep under trees, under bridges and out in the cold.....Gre a t song indeed!
This song is not only true, it's beautiful. I love it! But it's sorta sad listening to it.

just think about it...

Have always loved this song. So much to think about.

Man this song really puts things in perspective, and i'm only middle class! What has Phil been up too lately?
Yeah, this song is unbelievably moving.
One of the best songs from Phil Collins
Man, very moving lyrics. I'm a casual listener to Collins, but never been disappointed by what I've heard. This is poweful.

every parent should take their kids to a soup kitchen, etc...like Lady Di did. I live in a city w some very rich kids..they are so unbelievably selfish and judgemental, as are their parents.

I'm a true Phil Collins fan
Another Day in Paradise. I think Phil Collins is compassionat e and caring and He has helped with events to raise money for the poor and homeless, etc. We must all do what we can with what we have. "To him who knows to do good and doesn't do it, it is a sin. We must all do what we can with what we have. God will judge all for what they did in this life with what they had and what they knew.

I think Graeme Nash and David Crosby from Crosby, Stills and Nash are singing with Mr. Collins on this song.
This song is a wake up call, Yes, anybody could be there, are you ready for that?.

What are you doing lady.....why do the rich people have to fix it......and for all you know does he have $ still maybe maybe not......non e of your business.... . . I f the world needs saving get started whenever you're ready.

I love hearing songs from filthy rich people talking about helping the poor. Is he doing something about it? I can't find anything on the internet.
sad but real song
rpuhger
Reminds me of the story of the good samaritan, but without the girl getting any help. How often do we cross the road to avoid making eye contact with a less fortunate human being? Compassion is NOT a sign of weakness!
Love David Crosby in the background.
This is what we live in. Paradise. Others cannot, or do not have the means to. Let's help'em out. Everyone deserves to live in a paradise of their own.
Great song about real issues. Love it!!!!!!!!!! ! ! ! ! ! ! !
i actally dont care for phil collins and was trying to get rid of it. sorry for the confusion ;)
Good Morning Phil,

Have a Wornderful Happy New Year. I' adult registered to your songs and they are beautiful songs. I don't want to unregister. Play those songs again For peace in the world. Yes I'm a Catholic. I enjoy thos songs very much. They are raising the voting age for children so they can learn from their studious parents.
Top 2 list
Making a Song that forces one to look and see people in need Is doing something to help the problem.
I'm the type of dude that actually stops and talks to street people, and have been doing that since I've been a little boy. I truely love people and to see what makes them tick...yes I will give them a little somethin, somethin too.

Poverty exists mainly because the "Free Market" is anything but free (i.e., it's manipulated ad infinitum).
mmbratton
"Fixing" the problem isn't a solution. Poverty is generational and a mindset. Empowerment is the key.
In a country as wealthy as America, there should be no homeless problem, or at least a much, much smaller number of people living on the streets. Even small gestures of goodwill are paid forward in time. Helping people feels great.
If he cares so much why is he singing about it instead of fixing it?
This song seems like it might be pretty hypocritical .
....oh, think twice......p h i l or someone thought twice whilst crafting this musical masterpiece.
tinytot73054
My husband's favorite song. Stop and listen.
gut wrenching lyrics
one of phil collins' greatest lyrical achievements .
This day is just another pardise day when I think about Jessica brady!!!!
VERY SAD BUT TRUE
one of the best songs ever written
