  "account": "In an interview on Piers Morgan Uncensored, Phil Collins discussed several significant topics coinciding with his upcoming induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and the reissue of his solo album Face to Face. During the hour-long conversation, Collins opened up about his health struggles, a spat with Oasis, his relationship with Paul McCartney, his opinions on Donald Trump, and his musical preferences.\n\nCollins revealed that he had suffered from a health issue called \"drop foot\" in his right leg since the knee down due to recurring knee infections and surgeries. He also discussed his distaste for Donald Trump, stating that Trump's abrasive nature and business-like approach to politics made him unappealing. Collins felt that Trump viewed everything as a deal, either won or lost.\n\nWhen asked about Oasis, Collins revealed that he did not think of the band at all, comparing Jagger's response to Paul McCartney's indifference toward U2. He also expressed his admiration for the Queen's Golden Jubilee concert at Buckingham Palace, which he found to be a highlight of his career. However, Collins revealed that he had a disagreement with Paul McCartney regarding a signed Beatles biography. Collins felt patronized when McCartney signed the book, and they later reconciled after Paul called to apologize.",
