Collins said the idea behind Going Back was not to make something new out of the great old records, but to recreate the sounds and feelings that he had when he first listened to it: “… not to bring anything 'new' to these already great records, but to try to recreate the sounds and feelings that I had when I first heard them. My intention was to make an 'old' record, not a 'new' record ".
