Wolfen

Question

Help answer this question below.

Years ago I heard that Phil Collins' song "In The Air Tonight", was about his fiancee being raped and him seeing the assailant. Anyone know if there is any truth to this?

    "As Phil Collins has explained numerous times over the years, "In The Air Tonight" (as well as most of the "Face Value" album) deals with his bitterness and frustration over the end of his marriage to his first wife, and the lyrics do not reference any specific real-life event."
