Syd Barrett (1946-2006)

Syd.jpgBike

I've got a bike,
You can ride it if you like
It's got a basket, a bell that rings
And things to make it look good
I'd give it to you if I could, but I borrowed it

You're the kind of girl that fits in with my world
I'll give you anything, everything if you want things

I've got a cloak it's a bit of a joke
There's a tear up the front it's red and black
I've had it for months
If you think it could look good then I guess it should

You're the kind of girl that fits in with my world
I'll give you anything, everything if you want things

I know a mouse and he hasn't got a house
I don't know why I call him Gerald
He's getting rather old but he's a good mouse

You're the kind of girl that fits in with my world
I'll give you anything, everything if you want things

I've got a clan of gingerbread men
Here a man, there a man, lots of gingerbread men
Take a couple if you wish, they're on the dish

You're the kind of girl that fits in with my world
I'll give you anything, everything if you want things

I know a room of musical tunes
Some rhyme, some ching, most of them are clockwork

Let's go into the other room and make them work.

Emily tries but misunderstands, ah ooh
She often inclined to borrow somebody's dreams till tomorrow
There is no other day
Let's try it another way
You'll lose your mind and play
Free games for may
See Emily play

Soon after dark Emily cries, ah ooh
Gazing through trees in sorrow hardly a sound till tomorrow

There is no other day
Let's try it another way
You'll lose your mind and play
Free games for may
See Emily play

Put on a gown that touches the ground, ah ooh
Float on a river forever and ever, Emily, Emily
There is no other day
Let's try it another way
You'll lose your mind and play
Free games for may
See Emily play

Shine on you, crazy diamond ...

It's awfully considerate of you to think of me here
And I'm most obliged to you for making it clear
That I'm not here.
And I never knew the moon could be so big
And I never knew the moon could be so blue
And I'm grateful that you threw away my old shoes
And brought me here instead dressed in red
And I'm wondering who could be writing this song.

I don't care if the sun don't shine
And I don't care if nothing is mine
And I don't care if I'm nervous with you
I'll do my loving in the winter.

And the sea isn't green
And I love the queen
And what exactly is a dream?
And what exactly is a joke?

Arnold Layne had a strange hobby
Collecting clothes
Moonshine washing line
They suit him fine

On the wall hung a tall mirror
Distorted view, see through baby blue

Oh, Arnold Layne
It's not the same, takes two to know
Two to know, two to know
Why can't you see?

Arnold Layne, Arnold Layne, Arnold Layne, Arnold Layne

Now he's caught - a nasty sort of person.
They gave him time
Doors bang - chain gang - he hates it

Oh, Arnold Layne
It's not the same, takes two to know
Two to know, two to know
Why can't you see?

Arnold Layne, Arnold Layne, Arnold Layne, Arnold Layne
Don't do it again.

Adesso forse i Pink Floyd sono davvero finiti.

ho visto tante persone piangere oggi.

oh...che poi magari vi interessa ize of the world...a me piacerebbe troppo sapere cosa ne pensate..seriamente eh...http://squareplaza.blogspot.com/2006/07/music-corner-ize-of-world.html

oddio...scusate la parentesi pecedente. non mi ero accorto della notizia. Bye Syd. I'm sorry. Bye.

mi dispiace tanto. l'ho sognato 2 giorni fa, vecchio e ingrassato, e mi diceva (in inglese) che aveva un nuovo pezzo che non gli sembrava male. aveva la chitarra e me l'ha fatto sentire, nel sogno, e mi è sembrato meraviglioso. al risveglio mi sembrava di avere in testa la melodia e dicevo, devo trovare gli accordi, devo trovare gli accordi, ma appena ho messo un piede in terra, mi ero dimenticato tutto... addio grande syd, per me vale più octopus, o dark globe, o baby lemonade, di tutti i dischi dei pink floyd senza di te. davvero.

Era stata sua l'idea di chiamare il gruppo con i nomi di Pink Anderson e Floyd Council. Astronomy Domine degli Anderson Council, non suona male..
Bye Syd

Perche' siamo tristi...? restera' sempre. Anche se non ci sara' piu'.

per quello che mi riguarda sono molto legato ai pink flpyd ma nel periodo post barret. Anzi per dirla tutta fino a the final cut e l'uscita di roger waters.

Mi dispiace, ma rimanevo peggio se mi moriva un gilmoure o un waters

Ci sono rimasto troppo di merda e quindi vorrei una conferma: qualcuno ha ascoltato/visto servizi dei TG e dei GR sulla morte del sommo?
A me risulta che nessuno abbia messo su una nota delle sue canzoni ma tutti abbiano messo le solite "Shine..." e "Wish....". Come celebrare Vivaldi con la colonna sonora del Rondò Veneziano.
Mi spiace deludere le tue speranze Matteo, ma quanto a provincialismo questo cazzo di paese deve fare ancora tanta strada per schiodarsi.
Ma accetto eventuali smentite....

OT: Tranqui chi, il mio maestro di chiatarra delle medie?! visto il blog, può essere ... vabbè cmq si, è così ... in realtà ho sentito anche pochissimi servizi in merito ... solo qualcosina su GR2 ... curiosa la coincidenza del concerto di Roger Waters, in questo momento "in diretta" su Radio1, che ovviamente lui ha dedicato a Syd ...

Astronomy Domine...
Syd, un altro viaggio...via verso Jupiter e Saturn!
