Collins 'Desperate' For a Tony

He won't be happy until he gets a Tony for his work on the new Disney musical "Tarzan."

Rocker Phil Collins is "desperate" to scoop a Tony Award for his score for the new Disney musical "Tarzan" - to complete his impressive array of career honors.

The former Genesis drummer has an Academy Award, a Golden Globe and numerous Grammy Awards, but he won't be happy until he has collected the coveted Broadway theatre accolade.

Collins tells the New York Daily News, "I didn't do this show for pats on the back. A Tony would be lovely.

"It hasn't all been straight-ahead wonderful, but I've learned something I never knew how to do from 'Tarzan.' I'd never written for other people to sing on stage and to tell a story."

"Tarzan" opens on Broadway Wednesday.
