Phil has been inducted into the Songwriters Hall of Fame, as well as the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame (once as a member of Genesis and again as a solo artist). He had a cameo appearance in Steven Spielberg's Hook, as well as starring in British rom-com Buster. Dabbling in the world of film and television, Phil also made appearances on the big screen. His work on the soundtrack also led him to receiving the Disney Legend Award in 2002. The songs were huge hits, with his track 'You'll Be in My Heart' winning him an Oscar, Academy and Golden Globe Award for Best Original Song. Known for his distinctive drum sound, Phil was recruited to write and perform songs for Disney's Tarzan in 1999. He then embarked on a chart-topping and historic solo career, releasing huge hit songs such as 'In The Air Tonight', 'You Can't Hurry Love' and 'Another Day in Paradise'. Sadly, John passed away in 1980, and George passed away in 2001.Īfter spending years enjoying fame within Genesis, Phil began to enjoy solo fame in the 1980s, before leaving the band in 1996. 2016 even saw the release of their very own documentary, The Beatles: Eight Days a Week, about their touring years in the 1960s.
The Beatles appear in the Grammy Hall of Fame, the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and the UK Music Hall of Fame (to name a few) - and, of course, have their very own shiny star of the Hollywood Walk of Fame. The band set numerous World Records, including Most Recorded Song, Most US Number One Albums, and Most US Number One Singles, and reigned in countless Grammy Awards. Nominated for well over 100 awards, it's no surprise that members Paul McCartney and Ringo Starr were knighted for their services to music. Throughout their years, they provided us with timeless classics such as 'Here Comes the Sun', 'Hey Jude', 'Come Together' and 'Let it Be'. The Beatles made music history during their 10-year reign, making a huge cultural impact with their influences on music, fashion and even film.
