Deep Purple - 'Portable Door' (official music video)

It came to me one day in Jerksville
Man, I was right on the edge
That jacket’s too small for a man of your size
And those socks are too big for your head

My eyes glaze at whatever you say,
But I’m listening, do tell me more,
It goes under the bridge, right over my head
And out through my portable door

I was trapped in a dire situation
Between reason and someone-in-law
The winner takes all and runs off with the ball
Nothing could pleasure me more

Times were, I’d have spoken my piece
For a minute or two held the floor
But I can’t get a word in so here I am hurtling
Right out through my portable door

The jabbering’s hurting my brain cell so bad
For once in my life I am bored
The public house beckons, I follow the call
And slip in through my portable door

The unlikely event came upon me
I wasn’t prepared for the shock
Once round my neck and twice round the deck
And the rest disappeared up the block

So here we are and everything’s changed
Faster than ever before
You gotta be jokin’, man what are you smoking
Blow it out through my portable door

Δισκογραφική επιστροφή μετά από τρία έτη για τους Deep Purple. Ο διάδοχος του δίσκου διασκευών "Turning To Crime" (Νοέμβριος 2021) και 23ο συνολικά full length album της μπάντας φέρει τον τίτλο "=1" και αναμένεται τον δεύτερο καλοκαιρινό μήνα. Το έδαφος προετοιμάζει το single "Portable Door" (μαζί με το "απαραίτητο" βίντεο)...

Δελτίο τύπου: « ‘=1’ is the highly anticipated new album by one of the greatest rock bands of all time, Deep Purple.

Produced by the legendary Bob Ezrin, this record captures the band’s pioneering classic sound without relying on nostalgia, embodying the essence and attitude of their 1970s incarnation possibly more than any other recent album.

The enigmatic title ‘=1’ symbolises the idea that in a world growing ever more complex, everything eventually simplifies down to a single, unified essence.

It all adds up to one. With three consecutive No.1 albums in their back pocket and a new energy powering them forward, ‘=1’ represents Deep Purple at their pinnacle.»
