Easy Lover

Easy lover! Feel the explosive energy of Philip Bailey and Phil Collins' massive 1984 duet hit, "Easy Lover." This chart-topping smash blended pop rock hooks, soulful vocals, and a driving dance-rock beat into an unforgettable collaboration between two music giants.

Released as the lead single from Philip Bailey's solo album Chinese Wall (produced by Collins), "Easy Lover" became a worldwide phenomenon, hitting number one in numerous countries. Its powerful fusion of Bailey's soaring falsetto and Collins' rock rasp over an energetic pop rock/dance-rock track proved irresistible.

Co-written by Bailey, Collins, and Nathan East, this 1984 classic features driving guitars, pounding drums, and an infectious chorus. Warning listeners about a captivating heartbreaker, "Easy Lover" remains a defining moment of 80s pop rock and soul collaboration, showcasing both artists' immense talents.

SONG MEANING: The song serves as a warning about a dangerously alluring woman who easily captures hearts but inevitably leaves them broken ("She's an easy lover / She'll take your heart but you won't feel it"). The singers caution against falling for her charms, as she is captivating but ultimately untrustworthy in love.
