about

Christmas in Clifton House is a twinkling song that oozes EAHT’s personality-a marriage of music that draws from Evripidis’ classical piano training, indie roots and electro pop quests, with confessional, darkly humorous lyrics. Accompanied by a warm, analogue synth sound, Evripidis uses an unconventional Xmas gathering as an excuse to sing about youth, chosen families, queer sensibility, joie de vivre and the healing power of loving memory.

lyrics

Christmas in Clifton House
Will stay with me forever
We dropped acid, danced in kaftans
Laughed the time away together
You were sure that Mariah Carey was there too
There was proof all over the flat
According to you

London Town was musty and grey
We were so far away
From home
But among these damp, red, brick walls
We made a family, we’ll never be alone

Christmas in Clifton House
Will stay with me forever
We dropped acid, danced in kaftans
Laughed the time away together
You were sure that Mariah Carey was there too
She bled on the laminate floor
According to you

Though the stew was cooked for hours and hours
It was never served
Like mischievous children we engaged in peek-a-boo, hide n’ seek, role plays instead

If the world were meant to end today
I‘d hardly shed a tear
With my friends I feel invincible
Tonight we fly
In our red brick spaceship
above the skyline,
Venturing to the unknown
We’ll disappear

Christmas in Clifton House
Will stay with me forever
We dropped acid, danced in kaftans
Laughed the time away together
You were sure that Mariah Carey was there too
Now All I want for Xmas is to
Spend just one more, oh baby with you

You’ll stay with me forever
You’ll stay with me forever
You’ll stay with me forever

Evripidis and His Tragedies is Evripidis Sabatis. The "Tragedies" are the devastating, confessional, self-sarcastic, darkly humorous songs that draw on his classical piano training, queer sensibility and storytelling skills to examine and own up to the vicissitudes of life. Evripidis' pop inclinations take us for a bumpy, dancey ride across the fine line between tragedy and joie de vivre. ... more
