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
Bright and Beautiful He waits for her in a silver-grey Mercedes, Brushing that stray hair in place, For a perfect eyebrow line, An advance on God’s original design. She tells him that her seaweed is delicious, Flown in from the Bering Straits, Encased in Arctic ice. A grand a kilo, cheap at twice the price. It’s still the rich man in his castle, Still the poor man at his gate. As it was and ever shall be, Any new Eden is gonna have to wait. He types “Hello” on his gold ceramic laptop, Selecting from a world for sale, He takes a megabyte, Then sells before the screen bids him “Goodnight”. “Security” she says, “My love’s essential… Armed guards aren’t cheap, But good you’ll find, to keep about the house”. The CD plays the overture from Faust. CHORUS
