NEW YORK (AP) — Phil Collins is un-retiring. Collins tells Rolling Stone he is no longer officially retired and, in his words, “The horse is out of the stable and I’m raring to go.” Collins dropped out of the spotlight to spend time with his family. His marriage broke up and his ex-wife moved to Miami with their two boys. Collins later moved into Jennifer Lopez’s old house in Miami. He wants to make an album and tour, although he’s not sure which will come first. He’s got a way to go before then, because he’s recovering from back surgery. The good news is that Collins says the surgery should resolve his previous nerve problems that kept him from playing drums.

Uncovered and Unplugged,” comes out November 20.

The song was released Friday and went to number one on the iTunes singles chart in 85 countries. “Hello” almost was a dud. Kurstin says Adele and he had written the verse, but their time together ran out and he went home with half a song.
