Rep: 'Phil Collins not retiring'

Phil Collins has said that he does not plan to retire from music.

Speculation over whether the popstar would stop performing and recording hit the web after his recent interview with FHM.

In the interview, Collins said: "It feels like a good time to stop for a while... I don't think anyone's going to miss me."

However, Collins's representative has now told People: "He is not, has no intention of, retiring."

The singer underwent surgery last year to treat nerve damage to his left hand.

Collins has sold more than 150 million records.
