Phil Collins is best known as a Genesis member and solo artist, but he also recorded a handful of memorable duets that remain notable today. This piece highlights three standout collaborations that showcase his range across ballads, upbeat pop-rock and even a hip-hop reworking of one of his signature tracks.

– "Separate Lives" with Marilyn Martin: a poignant 1980s duet written by Stephen Bishop, featured on the soundtrack to the 1985 film White Nights.
– "Easy Lover" with Philip Bailey: co-written with Nathan East, released as a single in 1984 and included on Bailey's album Chinese Wall.
– "In the Air Tonight" with Lil' Kim: Collins's solo-written 1981 debut single from his album Face Value, reimagined by Lil' Kim in 2001 for the tribute album Urban Renewal — the only track on which Collins himself appears.
