. . "The recording is notable for its atmospheric production and macabre theme. Collins wrote the song about the anger he felt after divorcing his first wife, Andrea, in 1979. In a 1997 BBC Radio 2 documentary, the singer revealed that the divorce contributed to his 1979 hiatus from Genesis until the band regrouped in October of that year to record the album Duke. \"In the Air Tonight\" remains a popular selection on many classic rock radio stations. It is the song most often associated with Collins's solo career, and he has performed versions of it at many events, most notably at Live Aid, where he played the song on a piano on the same calendar day in both Philadelphia and London. He also performed the song at The Secret Policeman's Ball, which was his first live performance as a solo artist. The lyrics of the song take the form of a dark monologue directed towards an unnamed person: I was there and I saw what you did Saw it with my own two eyes So you can wipe off that grin I know where you've been It's all been a pack of lies Musically the song consists of a series of ominous chords played by a Sequential Circuits Prophet-5 over a simple drum machine pattern (the Roland CR-78 Disco-2 pattern, plus some programming); processed electric guitar sounds and vocoded vocals, an effect which is increased on key words to add additional atmosphere. The mood is one of restrained anger until the final chorus when an explosive burst of drums releases the musical tension, and the instrumentation builds to a thundering final chorus. Collins wrote the song in the wake of a failing relationship with his wife. Collins has described obtaining the drum machine specifically to deal with these personal issues through songwriting, telling Mix magazine: \"I had to start writing some of this music that was inside me.\" He improvised the lyrics during a songwriting session in the studio: \u201CI was just fooling around. I got these chords that I liked, so I turned the mic on and started singing. The lyrics you hear are what I wrote spontaneously. That frightens me a bit, but I'm quite proud of the fact that I sang 99.9 percent of those lyrics spontaneously.\" The song's popularity in the 1980s increased after a nearly complete recording of it was featured in the pilot episode of the American television show Miami Vice (\u201CBrother's Keeper\"), one of the first pop/rock songs to be featured as part of a TV program in this manner. Its use in that scene was \"a moment that first signaled to audiences and critics that Miami Vice had something to offer that few other TV programs on the air in 1984 could match\", The A.V. Club wrote in 2012. It subsequently grew popular again, \"bubbling under\" the Billboard Hot 100 at #102 in late 1984. On the heels of this successful merging of media, Collins became associated with the show; other Collins tracks including \"Take Me Home\" were later featured, and Collins himself also acted in an episode, \"Phil the Shill\". In 2013 the song served as the dramatic backdrop for a dialogue-free scene in the pilot of The Americans."@en . "Artist"@en . . . . "0"^^ .
