Early 2008, they hit the radios with their debut single ‘Beside You’ and immediately made an impact by hitting No.1 on the Malta Top 10 chart. The second and third singles 'Wake Up' (June 2008) and ‘Genuine’ (October 2008) once again made it to the top position of the local chart.

These achievements and several live performances led ‘Airport Impressions’ to be named ‘Best New Artist’ of 2008 at the Malta Music Awards. The band also won two other prestigious awards at the local ‘Bay Music Awards’ being the ‘Best New Comers’ and ‘Best Artists’ choice’.

The name itself reveals a feeling which most of us experience in moments when waiting in an airport. Such instants are not just an intuition for song writing but also for expression of feelings which surely is bound to be expressed in the upcoming debut album by ‘Airport Impressions’. The project was initially a combined effort of songwriters/musicians, Errol and Johann who had started as Riverstone way back in 2004 in local acoustic venues. They have experienced Ireland in 2005 for six months which was the main triggering inspiration of this project. In March 2008 they were in Germany to work on some songs from the album in the pipeline. Steve (drums) joined early 2008 contributing deeply in the band’s songwriting.

Walk With Me
Airport Impressions Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

That's the way I want it
Sometimes you can feel it
I don't have to run and hide ever again
That's the way to hold you
In my arms, remember
For this love song you're feeling
I know they're still dreaming
Now I want you here beside me

With the feel of your hand
I want to hold here forever
Makes me feel alright
Walk with me
The minutes that you stay with me
The seconds that you're free with me
Walk with me
Grant your fear
Sometimes it gets so hard to see
Never stop to wonder why
Walk with me
If I had to hide it
Sometimes we can find it
The city will be on you, right here in the night
That's the way to hold you
Come, look in your feeling
Right through here Now I want you here beside me
With the feel of your hand
I want to hold here forever
Makes me feel alright
Walk with me
The minutes that you stay with me
The seconds that you're free with me
Walk with me
Grant your fear
Sometimes it gets so hard to see
Never stop to wonder why
Walk with me
When you got a soul, then you'll feel alright When you got a soul you'll remember one thing
You got a soul from me
Walk with me
The minutes that you stay with me
The seconds that you're free with me
Walk with me
Grant your fear
Sometimes it gets so hard to see
Never stop to wonder why
Walk with me
Walk with me
The minutes that you stay with me

The seconds that you're free with me
Walk with me
