The song is about having a crush on someone when you are young. He used Sussudio as a name to encompass any girl. </p> According to Phil Collins, when he was on VH-1’s Storytellers, Sussudio is an imaginary girl’s name.

Not guilty. Honest! <br /> <br /> Actually, the song doesn’t start out too bad- in an 80s synth-and-drum-machine-laden way (don’t get me started on the eighties!) until it gets to the chorus. Not only an annoying ‘hook’ but the backing vocals compound the irritation factor. Throw in the gratuitous key change at the end and it’s all over for me.... </p> <p> The god-bothering nature of the lyric aside, I really have no idea what’s going on the video, although my attention may have wandered during all the dry heaving. </p> <p> Despite struggling manfully to the conclusion of Yah Mo, even I couldn’t make it through more than 90 seconds of the godawful Sussudio. Only Phil Collins could rip off Prince’s 1999 and turn it into flaccid (sus)pseudo funk. However, I’m glad I lasted long enough into the video to witness (at 0’58) what appears to be Quentin Tarantino auditioning for A Flock of Seagulls.  A good look for him. </p> Oh yeah, thanks for making me look like an afficianado of lame ‘80s pop-soul.
