The Drop
ARTIST: Peter Gabriel
CREATOR: Hrant Vardanyan
Video info:
I chose Peter Gabriel's work 'The Drop' because it is profound, it raises questions that concern me too. I called this short film 'Exit' because in all cases, there is a way out. I think even the birth of a person, and later, leaving this world, is also a way out.
Song info:
‘The Drop’ is a track taken from Peter Gabriel's album Up, released in September 2002.
Words and music by Peter Gabriel. Produced by Peter Gabriel.

‘The Drop has a melody that I had actually proposed for the Dome project but it had been rejected but I always liked it and so I thought I’d do a lyric to it. It’s of the book-ends approach lyrically it’s the tail end that you are looking at there. A parachute drop without knowing where you are going to land!’
