Adrian Borland - Walking In The Opposite Direction (Unofficial HQ Video) #Acoustic #Demo

The whole album, and particularly this track, is full of melancholy and powerful lyrics. A set of acoustic solo demos was recorded on a four-track from 1994 to 1998, including sketch versions of seven songs he eventually fleshed out for the second White Rose Transmission album. Recorded by Carlo Van Putten and Adrian Borland. Vocals and guitar by Adrian. All tracks were recorded at Carlo's house. The album was released in 2000, after Adrian's death (26th of April, 1999). This video is based on a documentary, filmed in 1971. The Battersea's Doddington and Rollo estate. A high-density development built by Wandsworth Borough Council in the late 60s to house 7000 people. Battersea is a district of South West London, England, within the London Borough of Wandsworth.

Lyrics My spirit’s free, you won’t get me Into the box your life is locked in Your value system’s broken down I see it blocks the road it stopped in And every day the things you crave Make a play for my affection I tell you straight, I won’t be swayed I’m walking in the opposite direction They scream at me from flashing screens They hassle me from city walls But these are other people’s dreams They don’t resemble mine at all And every day the things you crave Make a play for my affection I tell you straight, I won’t be swayed I’m walking in the opposite direction The stuff that you hold dear and high How does it warrant such devotion? I think you’ve lost the reason why Though you still carry on the motion And every day the things you crave Make a play for my affection I tell you straight, I won’t be swayed I’m walking in the opposite direction
