On this rainy/sleety/lousy weather day, we go back to this week in 1989 for the last #1 song from Phil Collins “Another Day in Paradise” it’s today’s Forgotten 45 at 3:45.

The song not only was his last #1 hit, it was the last #1 hit of the 80’s AND the first #1 song of the 90’s!  A departure from some of his more fun 80’s hits “Paradise” tackled the problems of homelessness.  His album “But Seriously…” went on to win a Grammy Award for Record of the Year.

All told, Phil recorded 18 Top 40 hits, and that doesn’t include his work with Genesis.  Check out the video for “Another Day in Paradise” today’s Forgotten 45.
