Another great hit by Collins & Yukich
Rodrigo_Amaro5 March 2024
Phil Collins' smash hit "Don't Lose My Number" gets a highly entertaining music video directed by his director/collaborator James Yukich where Collins is pitched several ideas for his next music video. The ideas are either tributes or parodies of films, music videos and genres, and included here are samurai films, westerns, a "Mad Max Road Warrior" scenario (the highlight of the clip), or basic spoof of Elton John, The Cars and David Lee Roth videos. Plenty of good humor on those sequences.

It's always nice to see Collins having fun while making those 80's and 90's videos, which always allowed him to act a little as some bits of dialogues are included in the bookends. However, for those discovering the music or those who enjoy the great guitar solo delivered by Daryl Stuermer it might be a little disappointing as the solo stays in the muffled in the background as Collins and a hungry crew member discuss about the solo and some ideas for the video. You're not gonna hear it because of the dialogue which includes a funny moment at the end.

Excellent moment for Collins, the music and the video. 9/10.
