About
We Can't Dance is the fourteenth studio album by Genesi, recorded and released in 1991. It was their last studio album featuring vocalist/drummer Phil Collin, who would leave Genesis amicably in 1996 before returning for 2007's Turn It On Again: The Tour. We Can't Dance was Genesis' first studio album in five year, following the international success of Invisible Touch in 1986. We Can't Dance reached #1 in the UK and #4 in the US, selling several million copies (including 4 million in the US alone). The album also spawned several hit single, including No Son of Mine, Hold on My Heart, I Can't Dance and Jesus He Knows Me, the latter two supported by humorous video. Two songs were cut from the album, due to the fact "there wasn't enough room on the record." These two songs are On the Shoreline, and Hearts on Fire. Both songs were released as B-Side. Contrary to popular belief, Since I Lost You is not about a broken relationship. The song was written by Phil Collins for friend Eric Clapton. On 20 March 1991, Clapton's four-year-old son Conor died after falling from the 53rd-story window of his mother's friend's New York City apartment, landing on the roof of an adjacent four-story building. Most of the songs were created/written out of improvising at Genesis' Fisher Lane Farm ("The Farm") studio. Following the release of the album, Genesis would spend the majority of 1992 on the road, promoting We Can't Dance on a popular worldwide tour with sold out arenas and stadiums (where they mostly played on the US leg of the tour). This proved to be Collins's last tour with Genesis until the band reunited in 2007. Professional Reviews .
