Tomorrow Is Always Too Long

This new feature by Phil Collins is a kaleidoscopic vision of Glasgow starring its citizens and the songs of Cate Le Bon.

As an artist Phil Collins is known for his interest in the voiceless, whether they be reality TV victims, Palestinian teenagers or Kosovan refugees. In this warm, generous new feature, the focus is on Glasgow from the point of view of its citizens, amplified by the songs of Cate Le Bon. ‘No Good’ is placed in the mouth of a restless schoolgirl, ‘I Wish I Knew’ gets the karaoke treatment, while ‘Are You With Me Now’ becomes an anthem for a young prisoner. Between the big numbers we channel-hop through a weird TV netherworld of psychics and home shopping, and silhouette animations depicting the city’s nightlife.
