Don't lose my number - Phil Collins

Phil Collins has said that 'Don't lose my number' was actually written during the recording sessions for his debut solo album 'Face value'. It turned up four years later on his third album 'No jacket required'. The lyric of the song was partly improvised, and Collins admitted that he does not fully understand what they mean.

The single was not released in the UK, but was in most of Europe and in the USA. It reached number 4 in the US Billboard Hot 100 chart.
