Sid...took too much acid that lead him to have that "look in your eyes"...like "black holes in the sky." There is a famous picture of a very different Sid, shaved and head blank stare who just showed up in the recording studio while the were recording this very song, and it took a while for Gilmore and Waters to see that it was Sid.

There was a documentary, in the documentary there was an interview and David and Roger where asked about this, or maybe they brought the subject up, I'm not 100% sure.. but during the answer..you could see that it hurt them to see Sid that way..

@pablozee6359 День назад

Even though Syd didn’t physically die until much later, the band wrote numerous tributes and odes mourning his loss to mental illness while he was alive. A terribly tragic situation for all of them. Syd was the main creative inspiration and force on those early Floyd records before his dramatic decline and exit from the band. But my god, their collective pain and grieving gave the world some incredible music. So real and emotional. It all still hits hard.

I, too, prefer the second "half" of the song. Richard's work on part 9 is particularly haunting. ...and the final bars of "See Emily Play"... And it ends Major. After 20+ minutes of minor chords. I understand why the piece was split, (it wouldn't all fit on one album side) but it's a shame. It's a cathartic experience in it's entirety.

@rohnnyjotten3985 День назад

S hine on Y ou crazy D iamond = S Y D. Syd lost his mind, accelarated by LSD use, but, LETS BE CLEAR ABOUT THIS, Syd would have lost his mind WITHOUT DRUGS, it woud just have happened more slowly, he was surrounded by 'bad' friends (not the band) who were plying him with LSD and taking advantage of him. Roger has spoken about this, and with Drs, and he is convinced Syd would have been ill eventually, without the drugs.

67 yrs. old and still have to take a hit when I hear Pink Floyd. David Gilmore came into the band after Syd went nuts so to say.

A lot of Pink Floyd albums are concept albums, so it is nothing new that songs smoothly transitions to each other. In this case, numbers mean parts of movements in one big piece. Except that on this album, you got another song with that same name with a few similar sections. Only with this number I can recognise these parts. Great reaction as always.

During the recording of this album, Syd made a visit to the studio and made them cry because they could no longer recognize their soul mate. And that's where we get the line "Now there's a look in your eyes like black holes in the sky" Now Hollywood, it's possible you might know Pink Floyd better than I do but wondering if you've heard any Floyd covers like Kittie's cover of Run Like Hell, Korn's cover of Another Brick in the Wall Parts 1-3, or my favorite is the Primus cover of Have a Cigar

@RobONeill-b5e День назад

Syd was the main singer, songwriter, and only guitar player until Gilmour was brought in to help out after Syd started to lose more and more control. Something happened to Syd after a weekend when he went on a psychedelic bender - nobody really knows what, but he was never the same after that

@alanpeterson4939 День назад

Syd pretty much lost touch with reality, due to mental illness and drugs. He could not continue with the band. They always felt terrible that they could not help him back to reality. The band kept Syd on the payroll, as a member of the band, for the rest of his life. Syd spent the rest of his life as a hermit, cutting himself off from society, cared for by his sister. He thought of himself as an artist, a painter. He spent his last years doing paintings, and then burning them.

@HenritheHorse День назад

Yeah, the "wish you were here" was his mind that he lost.

@scozz6139 День назад

No band like Pink Floyd, Period. Since you mentioned Blues, Pink Floyd was definitely a Blues based band, their roots were American Blues. Virtually all the Rock & Roll Bands to come out of England in the 1960s were Blues based bands, Americans Blues from the early and mid 1900s were huge influences on these English bands. Some of the great Blues players, Buddy Guy, Albert King, BB King, Buddy Holly, The Big Bopper, Johnny Lee Hooker, Eddie Cockran, Gene Vincient, Chuck Berry, etc., etc., etc., I could go on all day. Floyd even took their band name from two obscure American Blues guitarists from the mid 1900s,.. PINK Anderson, (1900-1974), and,... FLOYD Council, (1906-1976). Syd Barrett had, and listened to their records, and he came up with the band name. That famous Lyric from "Have A Cigar",... "By the Way, Which One is Pink",... is an actual quote from a record company executive, some of the other lyrics, while not direct quotes, were paraphrased from a meeting with said executives.

The WYWH album cover is a commentary on the music industry. Two men shaking hands, and one of them is literally getting "burned" in the deal. The background is a film studio. It's a blatant dig at the industry taking advantage of the the talent. "By the way, which one's Pink?"

@RedHand_Mat День назад

Syd was the original songwriter for the band. After he lost his mind, Roger Waters and David Gilmour had to step in which led to the most recognized Floyd albums.

@michaels3093 День назад

Pink Floyd, the name originated from two obscure bluesmen, Pink Anderson and Floyd Council. Blues was an early influence on the band members and yes the "oh by the way which one's Pink?" did happen and awesome and wonderful they found a way to include it in a song.

@hudsonhollow День назад

@anita3018 День назад

I don't understand why people don't get that it wasn't just drugs, he had mental illness which they said could have something to do with the heavy drug use, Pink Floyd were some of the first to bring mental illness to the forefront, it wasn't talked about back then 😅

@WtCBoston День назад

This song is about Syd. He left the band after having psychological issues due to drug use, LSD etc.

@mikethemotormouth День назад

Don't forget schizophrenia. Or that those were drugs were often given to Syd by flatmates and hanger-ons without his knowledge

@cnote3492 День назад

The Band explained it, Syd had to take a mental break because he was very experimental with the drugs and would go off singing a different song in the middle of the one they were playing. Syd came back after taking a break, he just wandered into the studio and the guys didn't recognize him, he had put on huge weight, a shaved head and a blank stair, like black holes in the sky, their friend Syd wasn't home anymore. We wish he was here.

@hilarymiseroy День назад

There are interviews with Waters Gilmour Wright and Mason all on here and they all have a slightly different take on Syd. Gilmour said that one day in 68 or 69 they were due to pick up Syd to go to a gig but they all decided not to. So he never officially left or was kicked out of the group. They just froze him out but made sure he would get his share of the royalties. If you read between the lines there was a lot of guilt over the way they treated him. Wright shared a flat with Syd for a while and he would leave to go and play with the group but tell Syd he was going out to get something like cigarettes. When he'd get back it would be obvious that Syd had no clue about how much time had passed.

@bigdavezilla День назад

First of, "Momentary Lapse of Reason" was Pink Floyd's 13th studio album released in 1987. Syd Barrett was the original singer and songwriter of Pink Floyd (along with Roger Waters), and he was only on the band's first album "The Piper At The Gates Of Dawn" released in 1967 and portions of their second album "A Saucerful Of Secrets" (1968). Syd was heavily into drugs (especially H) and this unfortunately caused him to have mental illnesses. After a show where Syd just stood on stage like a statue and did nothing at all for an hour because he was too stoned, the band had no choice but to replace him. He was replaced by his close friend David Gilmour. Interestingly, after leaving Pink Floyd, Syd Barrett was able to release two solo albums (with the aid of his former Pink Floyd members). After that Roger and the gang lost contact with Syd for several years. While they were recording the song "Shine On You Crazy Diamond" (which has 9 parts, not 5) Syd surprised them by showing up unannounced at the studio. This was really awkward considering the song that they were recording was all about him. They almost did not recognize Syd. The drugs had taken their cruel toll, and he was very frail and thin.

@paulqueripel3493 День назад

I thought he was the opposite of thin when he visited them. "Waters asked the audience if they knew him because he was not sure who that man was and what he was looking for, and then Wright realized it was Syd Barrett, with excess pounds, shaved heads and eyebrows. Totally unrecognizable, he looked like a middle-aged man, although he was only 29 years old." Taken from Wired.

@robbysguitars8223 День назад

Syd fried his brain with acid and became unable to perform. This was about 1968.

@happilyeggs4627 День назад

Syd Barrett is the subject of the song. It's a lament. Syd had a psychotic break after heavy drug use. He couldn't tell what was real and what was the trip. It was so bad he could no longer play cohesively when playing live. This is why the band brought Dave Gilmour into the band. Syd was the founder member of the band and much loved by Waters and Co. Much of the early material that the band recorded after Syd left was either a tribute to, or a lament of, the loss of Syd to mental illness, and to the loss of his genius. In the early years (Saucerful of Secrets and Piper at the Gates of Dawn) he was the main songwriter. He wrote a lot of very psychedelic songs, very trippy, and a lot of quirky, darkly humorous, songs. So, Syd having written the Piper at the Gates of Dawn album you can see where the references in Shine On You Crazy Diamond come from: Come on, you raver, you seer of visions Come on, you painter You piper, you prisoner, and shine: Syd was the piper at the gates of dawn. The writer of the songs in the new (drug induced) enlightenment, the dawn of the hippy era with it's use of drugs to expand the mind..

"Too much drugs" is a great rock & roll story, but Syd had all the hallmarks of schizophrenia. The drugs were probably his attempt to self medicate and tame the monsters in his mind.

@linkloudenback8359 День назад

Sometimes a group will make a song that is to long for the side of the record or tape. So it’s broken into parts. For example Genesis has a song called “Home By The Sea” on this album. But it’s in two parts on the album because it’s the last song one side A. So part one is side A and part two is on side B. Whenever it’s played on the radio it’s usually part one. But back in the day we had a station that would have block party weekends and sometimes they would sneak part two in on the weekends.

Pink Floyd - ' Shine, on You, Crazy Diamond ' I - V (* parts 1 -5 ) Long intro , ( reminds Me of the beginning of 1979 - 1980 old movie ' The Final Countdown ' w/ Martin Sheen & Kirk Douglas ... ) THIS also sounds great LIVE, when David Gilmour starts his guitar intro & I think the crowd goes wild, loud ... I think the ' parts ' are the music breaks in between the whole song You can also hear the time signature is either ¾ or ⁶/8 beats - bluesy, kinda jazzy, mello, - oh & don't forget the keyboard solo intro, - then back to the guitar, & then he FINALLY starts singing ... " Remember when You were Young, ( laughing, chuckle), You shone like the Sun ... " SHINE, ON YOU CRAZY, DIAMOND! (* Sax solo ... 🎷 & time change, another ' part ') " DEUCES! " ✌🏻😸✌🏻

@johncampbell756 День назад

The song was written in segments, and different people or combinations of people wrote each segment. Then, they worked out how to fit the segments together. Syd was the main songwriter of the first album (Piper at the Gates of Dawn -1967) and only wrote one song on Saucerful of Secrets (1968). Roger only wrote one song on Piper and wrote or co-wrote most of the rest of their songs until he left in 1985 after The Fibal Cut (1983). You called A Momentary Lapse of Reason (1987) one of their early albums. It was the first without Roger. Pink Floyd had few line-up changes, once they were signed. When Syd's drug use and possibke mental illness. Roger abd David thought Syd has schizophrenia, but Syd's family denies and mental illness beyond being "on the siectrum" of Asbergers. The band invluded several tributes to him after he was fired. The other line up changes were Roger demanding Richard Wright be fired after The Wall or Roger would record The Fibal Cut as a solo album. Richard demand to produce The Wall, but his production work, took too lkng and was unusable. He hadn't gotten a writing credit since the Wish You Were Here album. He returned as a guest on Momentary Lapse, but was a full member for The Division Bell (1994). The Endless River (2014) is essentially a tribute to Ricard Wright who died in 2008. About 3/4 of the album was unused recurdings from the Division Bell sessions by Richard Wright David and several producers worked these into new dings. David wrote a few new pieces fir the slbum. Only one song actually has any lyrics. David's wife Polly wrote the lrics, and almost all Pink Floyd lyrics on The Division Bell as well. Side note: one of the band nanes used befire Pink Floyd was The Meggadeaths. I wonder when Dave Mustsine learned about that.

The Hava A Cigar song is about the greediness and ignorance of record producers, not the band making fun of themselves.

@TheAcgtrs День назад

Well, if I had to guess why they separated songs out into different parts, was probably due to financial contracts. Basically, the more songs you have a writing credit on, back in the 70s, the better your paycheck was. There is more than one instance of such things occurring. Just look at the number of suites that Chicago recorded, back in the early in mid 70s.… It was a way of getting paid for individual writing credits for different parts.

The line in Have A Cigar you referenced, "the band is just fantastic, that is really what we think, by the way, which one's Pink?" was not the band making fun of themselves - they were making fun of the record/music company staff when they either wanted to sign them, or just after they'd signed them (can't remember which)

Have A Cigar is about being ripped off by the music industry, as many bands were in the 60s and 70s and even the 80s. Many still are even now

Music is personal...You like what you like, and you don't owe ANYONE an explanation why. It either speaks to you or it doesn't. Even though we've been through the whole "meaning" of this song over and over again, the real beauty in music is that you can have it mean whatever you like based on how it makes you feel. Sometimes I will avoid learning from the artist or anyone else what a song was really written about. It may forever ruin it for me. Just my thoughts on the subject....God bless...

You need to check out parts 6-9. To Me the cover symbolized one person getting “burned “ in a deal.

@daveheesen9174 День назад

to me this more like Shine on you crazy diamond part 1 through 75...every couple measures the song changes...the only consistent thing is the quality of the music

@Eowyn187 День назад

I can never decide which is my most favorite... this or Have A Cigar. But the intro to this is freaking orgasmic.

Hi Guys the reference in "Have a Cigar" are where the record company execs know so little about the artists, the album cover refers to being burned by the record company where the artists are unaware or the implications of the small print in the contracts that the band have signed, and Syd Barratt "cry for the moon" refers to mental health when the lunatic is effected by the full moon and frightened by shadows at night and exposed in the light.

@martynbayley8925 this and Welcome to the Machine are about them being taken from a subsidiary label to the major label after Dark Side took off.

Not taking themselves too seriously wasn't what they were talking about with the lyrics... 'The band is just fantastic, that is really what I think, Oh by the way, which one's pink?' They were making fun of of record company people, that don't know shit about them, actually thinking, hey the band's name is Pink Floyd, which one of them is Pink? It's really a fuck you to the record company hacks.
