Republicans block meningitis, chickenpox vaccine mandates (Wisconsin) – Los Angeles Times )(GOP death and disease cult infects public health – hard to believe fake-ideology matters more to GOP than public health!!!)

Collins wrote this song about the anger he felt after divorcing his first wife, Andrea Bertorelli, in 1980 – he was so devastated that he left Genesis for a short time. All of the original songs on the Face Value album, including the follow-up hit I Missed Again, were at one time intended to be “messages” to his first wife in an attempt to lure her back to him.
