Born and raised in west London, Collins played drums from the age of five and completed drama school training, which secured him various roles as a child actor, with his first major role, aged 13, as the Artful Dodger in the West End musical Oliver!. He then pursued a music career, joining Genesis in 1970 as their drummer and becoming lead singer in 1975 following the departure of Peter Gabriel. Collins began a successful solo career in the 1980s, initially inspired by his marital breakdown and love of soul music, releasing the albums Face Value (1981), Hello, I Must Be Going! (1982), No Jacket Required (1985) and ...But Seriously (1989). Collins became, in the words of AllMusic, "one of the most successful pop and adult contemporary singers of the '80s and beyond". He also became known for a distinctive gated reverb drum sound on many of his recordings. In 1985, he was the only artist to perform at both Live Aid concerts. He also resumed his acting career, appearing in Miami Vice and subsequently starring in the film Buster (1988). In 1996, Collins left Genesis to focus on solo work; this included writing songs for Disney's Tarzan (1999) for which he received an Oscar for Best Original Song for "You'll Be in My Heart". He rejoined Genesis for their Turn It On Again Tour in 2007. Following a five-year retirement to focus on his family life, Collins released an autobiography in 2016 and completed his Not Dead Yet Tour in 2019. He then rejoined Genesis in 2020 for a second reunion tour, ending in March 2022.
Collins's discography includes eight studio albums that have sold 33.5 million certified units in the US and an estimated 150 million records sold worldwide, making him one of the world's best-selling artists. He is one of only three recording artists, along with Paul McCartney and Michael Jackson, who have sold over 100 million records both as solo artists and separately as principal members of a band. He has won eight Grammy Awards, six Brit Awards (winning Best British Male Artist three times), two Golden Globe Awards, one Academy Award, and a Disney Legend Award. He was awarded six Ivor Novello Awards from the British Academy of Songwriters, Composers and Authors, including the International Achievement Award. He received a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame in 1999, and was inducted into the Songwriters Hall of Fame in 2003 and the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame as a member of Genesis in 2010. He has also been recognised by music publications with induction into the Modern Drummer Hall of Fame in 2012, and the Classic Drummer Hall of Fame in 2013.

Shooby doop dobby dop dobby doop dobby dah dah dobby op

Shooby doop dobby dop dobby doop dobby dah dah doo dap

The lyrics of Phil Collins's song Desbaratando el Campamento, particularly the ones above, can be interpreted as nonsensical and meant only to serve as a playful musical accompaniment to the scene they were written for. The song is from the soundtrack of the Disney animated film Brother Bear, and is played during a montage of the main characters cleaning up a campsite after their stay there. The melody is upbeat and whimsical, and the lyrics fit this mood, sounding like a series of nonsense syllables strung together to make the listener smile.
The first verse of the song sets the tone for the rest, with a series of repetitive "shooby doop dobby dop" sounds that seem to mimic the sound of someone cleaning up a campsite. This is followed by a "wah wah ba doo" sound, perhaps meant to represent the last item being cleared from the site. The refrain of "Do BOP she doo WHOO!" is likely meant to emphasize the feeling of accomplishment that comes with a job well done, lending a celebratory air to the scene.
Overall, the lyrics to Desbaratando el Campamento are not meant to be taken literally or analyzed for deeper meaning. Instead, they serve as a fun and fitting accompaniment to the upbeat melody and playful scene they accompany.

Bueno, yo tengo 14 años y sigo teniendo infancia, y aunque sea anciano, yo jamás renunciaré a los juegos, películas (creo).

Yo la escuché en un CD pirata, pero no había visto la película y por lo tanto, no la pude identificar, pero aún así me gustó.
