Artist: PHIL COLLINS
Album: TESTIFY (CD)

Year: 2002
Media type: CD

Testify is the seventh studio album by British singer Phil Collins. The album debuted at #30 on the American Billboard Charts, which was also the album's peak position. To date, the album has peaked the lowest of his solo efforts. It was also the second Collins studio album where no track cracked the American Top 40 singles chart. It was also his lowest charting album in the U.K., becoming his only solo effort not to reach the Top 5. However, the album received much greater success and favor across Continental Europe.

Meat Loaf's album Couldn't Have Said It Better was originally to be titled 'Testify', but was retitled in anticipation of Phil's release. Couldn't Have Said It Better went on to reach #3 on the UK charts and sell over 3 million copies.

Despite the lack of success the album achieved, his subsequent tour - the "First Final Farewell Tour" - proved to be very popular, as well as being his last solo tour. It followed the pattern set previously on the "Dance Into the Light" tour (Trip into the Light).
