Collins, Phil - Girl (Why You Wanna Make Me Blue) Lyrics






I love you, girl, with all my heart and soul
I can't understand why you treat me cold
Your every wish, girl, is my command
And that's why I can't seem to understand why
Girl, girl, girl, why you wanna make me blue?
I'm askin' you girl, girl, girl, why you wanna make me blue?

One day you say you love me too
The next day you tell me that we are through
My love for you is just a game
But each time we play, girl, my heart feels the pain
Girl, girl, girl, why you wanna make me blue?
Oh girl, girl, girl, why you wanna make me blue, so blue?

[Instrumental]

Woo Girl, girl, girl, why you wanna make me blue? (make me blue)
Oh girl, oh girl, oh girl, tell me why can't you be true? (can't be true)
The way you treat me, it just isn't fair
You make it so plain you just don't care
You have a ball around my time
Of sleepless nights I'm getting tired
Girl, girl, girl, why you wanna make me blue?
I'm askin' you girl, girl, girl, why you wanna make me blue, baby?
Girl, girl, girl, why you wanna make me blue?
Oh oh girl, girl, girl, why you wanna make me blue?

[repeat to fade]

    Not bad Phil but bit of a carbon copy. London 60s mod band The Action made it theirs. A million times better. I still like you though .. no offence

    M.... n....

    This is a motown song written by Smokey Robinson for the temptations there is no better version than the original

  5. P.... T....

    Amaizing song! Love ♥️

  6. L.... H....

    Thank you always to #PhilCollins for brilliant music .

  7. P.... W....

    Its Proper sad , you have to get older in life ;)

  8. G.... A....

    Lllllllllooooooovvvvveeeee............🎆🎇✨🎉🎄

  9. J.... H....

    Everything he does is fantastic!

  10. B.... A....

    not quite my tempo

  11. W.... C....

    Looking very good song, new grooves

  12. h.... k....

    I am so glad to hear him singing again he still is the best singer !!

    h.... k....

    trop cool

  13. A.... D....

    simplemente los mejores bueno ver a Phil, a Chester y parte de la banda que toco en Paris en el 2005 con el Farewell tour !!!.... really but really awesome we are waiting to see you again Phill the best of the best!!...

  14. C.... H....

    I love him so much. .
    and now at the age of 30 I have rediscovered him all over aging.
    I was So Yong when my father first introduced me to his songs ...I plan on seeing him for the first time in NY. Oct 26th

  15. J.... Z....

    Desde Uruguay gracias Phil por toda esa maravillosa música que haces un grande de todos los tiempos.

  16. L.... G....

    Am I the only one who thinks he is a nice person? I don't know why but I really liked him after the first song I heared

    L.... G....

    "[Phil Collins] is a nice person"
    "Well, if you told me you were drowning, I would not lend a hand" -Coming in the air tonight

    L.... G....

    Sure, everyone thinks he's nice when they hear his music... it's when they actually meet him that they think he's an asshole.

    L.... G....

    I fell the same. I think he is a nice person because he has helped many people in need.

  17. M.... g....

    Phil Collins sir. I am 13 and I play at a drum set like you and I want to tell you I look up 2 u and your fellow brit Ringo. I can't wait for the going back reissue.

    M.... g....

    Phil Collins doesn't actually use this channel

    M.... g....

    he has his own YouTube channel

    M.... g....

    Hey Martin have you seen the video of Nick Collins playing drums at the US Open?

    M.... g....

    Cool. You should start "playing" a drum set and stop playing "at" a drum set. It'll help a lot.

    PS. Phil Collins doesn't read these comments.

    M.... g....

    Me I have seen Nick. AND I WANNA BE THE WIFE OF NICK RIGHT NOW!

  18. J.... M....

    We need more Phil, please :-)

  19. L.... J....

    I would just rather talk to him, myself. But sometimes things don't happen the way you want, because you can't have everything you want in life, until you know your purpose I guess. Then you just except things the way they are. That's just the way it is.

  20. F.... H....

    Só grandes gênios da música para fazer releituras musicais como esta... Parabéns, Mr. Phil Collins, gênio da música mundial e obrigado por nos presentear com estas performances especatulares

  21. M.... Y....

    Awesome music

  22. J.... K....

    Phil come back to stage, make a concert in Prague, we all miss your songs here!

    J.... K....

    +Jana Khadija he just left retirement and is coming back

  23. S.... ....

    Beautiful music and chant, excellent kisses nadette

  24. C.... D....

    should have left this one alone

    C.... D....

    Well...Clearly you're opinion.

    C.... D....

    no YOU are opinion...

  25. L.... M....

    Amazing Phil! xx

  26. W.... W....

    What a musician !!! 

  27. M.... C....

    A Temptation's classic!

  28. C.... D....

    Omg ! Love it. Phil forever # a french 16 year-old boy <3 love you since 1998

  29. m.... r....

    I don't know. Tell.

  30. R.... A....

    GENIO!!!!! CADA DIA CANTA MEJOR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  31. b.... s....

    omg he sounds f----ng great no one like him xxx

  32. D.... S....

    My hero!

  33. A.... C....

    The man makes it work, and hey! He's got some of his gang backing him up. Guess whose on bass?

  34. Y.... R....

    Dear God i love Phils music its made my life ao sweet!!!!

  35. Y.... R....

    OMG!! he sound soooooo freakin good!!! ahhhhhhhhhhhh just lost my breath right on Phil!!!

  36. A.... E....

    That trombone player. That is some nice tone.

  37. D.... P....

    Phil Collins is the man I would throw him up there with some of the best ever. His ability to take any song and put his on spin on it is something not alot of artist can do.

  38. C.... N....

    Vai tocar batera fíu!

  39. G.... A....

    thak you pal

  40. e.... ....

    @MSWEDREAM
    I agree. Phil's version sounds sweeter, fresher and pops nicely. I love the entire album immensely.

  41. M.... ....

    ive since listened to several of the temptations videos singing this song & in my opinion this arrangement beats them hands down

  42. M.... ....

    fanofprotopic i for one had never heard this song ,so glad phil collins did it

  43. A.... A....

    Ele é maravilhoso e eterno...amo muito.

  44. R.... D....

    Collins has great taste and I sure admire him for hiring so many of the classic Motown musicians. But I wish he, Michael McDonald, Rod Stewart, Mick Jagger and everyone else would realize these classic songs have already been done definitively by the original artists and should be left alone.

  45. D.... ....

    the best song on his new album i bought it today its amazing :)

  46. R.... R....

    Nice to see the guy from Life on Mars as a backing singer...... ;-)

  47. C.... R....

    I love this album, this track is my favourite. Seems like round this age, most of the great performers (e.g. Tom Jomes, Peter Gabriel, Phil etc) make the kind of music they WANT to make, rather than just to please the record companies, and I'm glad they do!! Superb!

  48. d.... ....

    Is this JAZZZZ?

  49. O.... ....

    I need to meet him sometime in my life. I need to tell him how much his music means to me :) <3

  50. D.... L....

    This might be the smallest kit I've ever seen Chester Thompson play and it sounds great!

  51. S.... K....

    @sdan94 because he's enjoying the music! ^^

  52. t.... ....

    I was real happy to see Bob, Ray and Eddie in the video.

  53. t.... ....

    DON'T KNOW WHAT I WOULD DO WITH OUT PHIL'S MUSIC IN MY LIFE!

  54. f.... ....

    LOVE IT.

  55. j.... ....

    @sdan94 Because I can't bear to see the crowd's response?
    #justkidding

  56. j.... ....

    I appreciate Phil Collins for giving respect to his forefathers. I wish the original creators of this music had such resources and studio support as there is in this video. Phil Collins could reinterpret these songs. He could choose lesser known tunes to promote (that would sell fewer albums).

    I like Michael McDonald's stuff better in this vein. He's been a Blue Eyed Soul for awhile.

    Play some drums, Phil if you won't to back. 1st generation Genesis was a #badassjam.

  57. s.... ....

    why doesn't he opens his eyes? :/

  58. C.... ....

    one love phil

  59. M.... ....

    Hee hee, he's so funny sounding doing R&B.

  60. V.... L....

  61. n.... s....

    so sad he retired. damn him for for being so lovable even at 60

  62. n.... s....

    how could a 60 yr old man sound and look so good?

  63. K.... T....

    Great Great Voice Phil...Have heard your music since "Sussudio"

  86. i.... ....

    When Phil Collins blue
    All he decides to do
    Is take a look at you
    Then he's not so blue...

  87. s.... ....

    his voice sounds a tiny bit raspy on this, but it just makes him sound better

  88. m.... ....

    WONDERFUL!!!!! As usual Phil!!!!

  89. S.... O....

    was the best of the ideas of humanity! collins do sing these beads

  90. C.... F....

    WOW! Phil Collins sings this song so awesome! Love it!

  91. T.... ....

    It's still blasting! ;)

  92. b.... ....

    Nice to see he`s back recording,a good version of the record but I prefer the original version.When its played at some of the Northern Soul/Motown events the original will fill the dance floor,not to sure about this version,but good on him if it gets more people listening to some of the good sounds of the Northern Soul/Motown classics from the past
    Keep The Faith

  93. l.... ....

    Preciosa!!

  94. W.... R....

    Very good!

  95. R.... D....

    I usually don't like remakes of Motown songs, but this is ok. I still prefer the original though.

  96. M.... G....

    Eres el mejor. Como el buen vino con los años MEJORA tu musica mejora.
    Y formas parte de momentos especiales de la vida de los demas. Un brindis por ti
