Ben Hazlewood puts his own unmistakable spin on a Phil Collins classic, “Another Day in Paradise,” honoring the original but with a modern touch.
“I worked on this track in my NYC apartment with my friend and co-writing partner. I have loved this song since I first heard it and have wanted to cover it ever since.”
Being able to hear the theatrics in a performer’s voice is what makes a cover truly excellent, especially on a Phil Collins song. In Hazlewood’s rendition, those vocal nuances bring the story to life, showing how small shifts and a willingness to see things differently can deeply influence the way we approach love and one another. The track bridges nostalgia with a fresh, contemporary perspective, giving a timeless classic new resonance. Adding to the significance, the song was originally released the year Hazlewood was born, making this cover a full circle moment in both his life and musical journey.
