Talk:Take Me Home (Phil Collins song)

message: Anyone know what the video is like, sorry I haven't seen it and if someone could write about that, then they'd be appriciated very much by yours truely :) Skully Collins (Talk) .
:To clarify, the woman calling from inside the house was Phil's real wife (at the time), Jill.  She was also (reportedly) one of the "bikini babes" in the David Lee Roth parody section of the video for "Don't Lose My Number".  Another misconception is that it was a "high-budget" video due to "travel costs".  It was actually one of Phil's cheapest videos, by his own admission, because the footage in exotic locales was just picked up while he was on tour in those cities.

replies: text: It's definitely Jill, though I can't find any reference to support this. I recall that either VH1 or MTV used to have a show where they showed popular videos which "bubbles" popped up displaying interesting (or otherwise!) facts about what was going on. In the Take Me Home one, it definitely mentions that it's Jill's voice at the end and, IIRC, their house in England at the time. It also mentions that when all of the various snippets were being collated to make the final video Phil was irritated to discover that he appeared to be wearing the same T-shirt in several different locations.MarkRae (talk) 15:39, 29 April 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: Ooooh, I didn't know Pop-Up Video did an episode with Phil's music video! I will watch the repeats on VH-1 Classic, and see when and if they air the segment. Thank you for the heads up! CarpetCrawlermessage me 16:09, 29 April 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: Pop-Up Video! That's the one - couldn't recall the name for the life of me! They definitely did Take Me Home - IIRC, there was one location where Phil refused to remove his baseball cap because he hadn't washed his hair...MarkRae (talk) 18:04, 29 April 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: You can see (most of) it here: http://mqsto.com/video/2062 - not sure how, ahem, legal that site is, so you might like to delete this post after viewing it. Unfortunately, it ends just before Phil's house and Jill's voice... :-( MarkRae (talk) 16:31, 4 May 2009 (UTC)
thread_title: The Video

message: "It was also featured on the premiere of Miami Vice's second season."  Did Miami Vice feature the video, or just the song?  Ho w does a TV show feature a video? --ScottAlanHill 11:41, 16 August 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I don't understand what that means, either, so I took it out. I know that the song had been on an episode, though, so I added that, with a reference. CarpetCrawler (talk) 22:06, 21 September 2008 (UTC)

thread_title: Fair use rationale for Image:Take Me Home (PC).jpg

message: I heard that the song is a critic on US-President Ronald Reagan's closure of many asylums in the 1980's, which resulted in many people who needed mental help finding themselves on the street again. I think it was said in the VH1 Pop Up Videos...  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 88.78.133.236 (talk) 11:43, 1 August 2010 (UTC)
