Melodic Catalan Rock Band
Pere Flipat were a band playing Melodic Rock in the boom period of Catalan Rock (1987- 1993). We sang in English, Catalan & Spanish. We made an album in 1991 that was moderately succesful, but lack of promotion and direction led to schisms in the band and we split up. However, we are all still very proud of the music we made back then and that is why we want to make it available to a new generation of "Flippies" - as our fans were known. Sadly, a reunion of the original band is now impossible because Tony, our Saxophonist, was killed in a car accident a few years back.

Lyrics
Building Walls C I'm building walls, building walls, H To shut out the pain. O I'm building walls up once again. R I'm building walls, building walls. U I'm building walls. S I'm building up, I'm building up, I'm building up - walls! The foundations were laid at the moment of my birth, The first bricks cemented with tears. This one's for that bully, who beat on me in school, And this whole side Is for the others in the following years. CHORUS This rows for longings - longings betrayed. This rows for loves that have died. This for illusion - This fear - This pain - And these for all the Trojan horses That I've dragged inside. CHORUS So high - Cannot get over it. So wide - Cannot get round. So deep - Cannot get under it. So strong - I think I'll never tear it down.
