    The Apartments "drift", CD, Digipack with booklet

    "drift" was universally praised by the critic when released in 1993. Composed in London where Peter Walsh then lived, it is a collection of unclassified dark pieces, a timeless masterpiece, the remarkable class of a songwritter, the obsessional record of an aching mind.

    Sold out for many years, it became necessary to release this one again. Three unreleased songs are present on this remastered version (tape recorded demos from 1986: ’You Wanna Cry, STOP, I’m the Staying Kind’, which were composed as a response to the rumour saying that Dusty Springfield was going back on stage. Peter wanted her to appropriate this song).

    Includes unlimited streaming of drift via the free Bandcamp app, plus high-quality download in MP3, FLAC and more.

lyrics

Let her inside, says she’s been locked out all her life
But you never let anyone get near
See her disguise every hope that got betrayed
All the tickets go nowhere now
Heaven’s hidden, hidden. It disappeared

But now, now, now, now
Nothing stops it does it?
Nothing stops it does it?
Takes a hold, don’t let go of you

Forget who it was, jumped from the ship at Vera Cruz
Turned twenty five that day
Well that’s just how I was
I fell through a trapdoor and blacked out
I didn’t own a feeling then
Just a hollowed out ghost in your life

But now, now, now, now
Nothing stops it does it?
Nothing stops it does it?
Takes a hold, don’t let go of you

It don’t let go, it don’t let go
You will have to search everywhere
You will never get past this desire

Now, now, now, now
Nothing stops it does it?
Nothing stops it does it?
Takes a hold, don’t let go of you
