There’s something inherently awesome about a retired rock star who can do pretty much whatever the hell they want—like, for example, performing their iconic song with their sons’ middle school band, which is what Phil Collins did recently.

(I realize that some people may take issue with my characterization of Phil Collins as a rock star, but I defy you to listen to “In the Air Tonight” and remain motionless during the drum fill. Or to listen to “Against All Odds” without having any feels at all. Hell, even “Sussudio” gets most people at least bobbing their heads.)

Here’s Phil performing “In the Air Tonight” with a bunch of tweens (starting at about 2:00).

He might have retired a few years ago, and he might spend more time curating Alamo artifacts than rocking, but you can tell performing is still in his blood. Plus, I don’t know if that’s one of his kids on drums, but the kid nails it.

I also feel that an Earth, Wind and Fire shout-out is appropriate here:

And, of course, topical 1980’s-era puppets:
