Darude's "Sandstorm" or Phil Collins "In The Air Tonight" are two songs that you are guaranteed to hear during an ACC broadcast.

Over the recent months we have blasted these two songs on the back of happiness, sadness and other things that we can't put into words. With over 1 million streams on iHeartRADIO, we are confident that Phil Collins' daughter Lily Collins has tuned in for an ACC broadcast. Due to the right mood, atmosphere and timing of "In The Air Tonight" being played, we feel it sparked something within Lily to want to reunite with her father.

When Collins and his wife split, 5-year-old Lily moved with her mother to Los Angeles, and saw her dad only during school holidays after that. She said the separation led to a life of lingering insecurity.

“We all make choices and, although I don’t excuse some of yours, at the end of the day we can’t rewrite the past,” Lily wrote. “I’m learning how to accept your actions and vocalize how they made me feel. I accept and honor the sadness and anger I felt toward the things you did or didn’t do, did or didn’t give me.”

We feel the need to take responsibility for this soon to be reconciled relationship. Lily is yet to reach out and thank us for this but we are hoping to receive a thank-you letter soon. 

Lily if you're ready this, once again, you're welcome and all the best for you and Phil. 

Kind regards,
