Now I really feel old. Also, the first time I saw The Wall, I was completely sober, and I understood it. Then I watched in after partaking of some herb and understood it even more. What does that say about my brain. Lol.

@TrianglesAndCircles That awesome. At one point, I remember seeing David Gilmore fully wired Fender pick guards. It came with the same pups, the same volume/tone pots, and wired to his specs. It was around the same time Fender released an anniversary edition of David's famous "Blackie" Fender. All set up the same as his guitar. I kind of remember the guitar selling for $4000 and the pre-wired pup/pick guards selling for about $500-$700. So, if you couldn't afford the signature guitar, you could just swap out your pick guard/pups. I'm not a guitar player, so I passed on both.

Syd Barrett's decline was so rapid and so tragic that is has become legendary in rock history. He was the original lead singer and song writer for the band in their early days. They scored a huge hit in the UK with "See Emily Play" but drugs and mental issues caused him to decline fast and hopelessly into insanity. David Gilmour, Syd's college friend, took over as lead guitarist.

Years ago, when I graduated high school, I got a job at a fast food place. The boss there played guitar. I learned to play (after a fashion) and when he taught me a song, I would practice it for eight hours a day, seven days a week. This was one of my favorites. I learned this in about 3 days. He was amazed. Sadly, Junior College led me astray from a wasted life as a musician that I oh so wanted to engage in.

No intoxicants of any sort are needed when listening to Pink Floyd. All the trip necessary is in the music itself. This is one of my all-time favorite songs because it has special meaning to me so I was glad to see you cover it. But I hope at some point you start reviewing the full albums. Most of them only really become clear when you listen to the songs all at once, in order. It makes a big difference.

Pink Floyd do not just write song; they craft experiences. To be truly appreciated, each album should be listened to as a whole, as should this full concert, as the experiences add up to a journey. Further, each journey is unique to each individual listening and may take you somewhere different each time you listen.

This was the first song I ever learned when I started learning acoustic guitar in '98. One of the most fun times I had playing it was after a lesson in the guitar shop my lessons started out in. I talked to two teenaged/early 20's aged guys about music and what they liked. Eventually, they picked up a six and twelve string guitar, respectively and I was on my six string acoustic. All three of us fell into a version of this song because I'd just learned it. Talk about an awesome jam session!

Poor old Syd fell to bits in the early 70's and he really missed out on Pink Floyd's best work, yet he must have been pleased, yet disappointed that he didn't get to contribute to these masterpieces in a way he wanted to. He did contribute via the love and affection the boys had for him which is why his presence was always found in their work.

@mikeh720 9 ай бұрын

The album that this was originally released on (Wish You Were Here) is one that fit the CD format even better than the vinyl format. It tells a contiguous story that is emotional and moving. A lot of PF's album also tell a story, but the A-side/B-side either hit from a different view point or a before/after scenario. Syd's story is a sad one, similar to Brian Wilson's (The Beach Boys) in that their mental health issues really robbed the world of their presence and them of an identity in the real world. An alternative (simpler) take on this track is one of missing part of oneself or a very close companion and being very lonely for it, but encouraging the singer/listener to push forward, to not accept that position, and to take the reigns of their life and drive in the direction they want. And that's my sober response...I've definitely had some serious(?) discussions about this whole album while being far less than sober. Cheers Diane, keep it up with the amazing selections you've been choosing from our recommendations. 💚 to you, Chewie, and ED.

Hi Diane! A great song, a song that gives testimony to the frailties in life. Sid, in the early years of the band helped give Pink Floyd the direction that makes them such an iconic band today. Sid Barret wasn't the only one who was a casualty of mental illness. Peter Green, one of the founding members of Fleetwood Mac, also suffered from a mental illness that caused him to be dropped from the group. Give Chewie my love, you never cease to amaze me . Love you and I'll catch you Friday!

The main song on the Wish You Were Here album is Shine On You Crazy Diamond. It book ends the album as Rodger Waters intended to make a big statement,. having come down from the huge success of the previous album, Dark Side Of The Moon and struggling to come up with something to follow up. Shine on You Crazy Diamond, Parts. 1-5 (13:40) at the start of the album & Shine on You Crazy Diamond, Parts. 6-9 (12:31) at the end. It's worth a segway listen to all of it to appreciate it's full glory

@peterjamesfoote3964 9 ай бұрын

Poob! This song and it’s album were my introduction to psychedelic rock in my junior year of high school. It’s not just a laid back trippy song but an innovative existentialist examination of loss and distance from reality. This is a theme to be found in much of the band’s music through the album and film “The Wall”. Much of Britain lost their lives in WWII, not only troops on the front, but women and children as well through Nazi bombings of England. Band members grew up in the post war era where many fathers and brothers had been lost in the war leaving much of England without significant role models. So who has been lost? Who is Derek? Well, everyone who has been lost or suffering from loss. I understood this song much better after the loss of my fiancée Peggy in the crash of AA flight 191 at O’Hare in 1969, a crash that should never have happened. At this point the song’s meaning changed for me from an easy quiet reflective feast for the ears, to a reflection on sadness and loss and the feeling of helplessness and indirection that comes with it. Prior to the crash, my life was laid out before me with a clear direction and path. Afterwards, like most people after a great personal tragedy I felt lost and overwhelmed and romantic relationships of any kind became horribly risky to me. It would be 15 years before I met my wife Anna and real healing began. The existential impact of war on society is often misunderstood by those who advocate for war having no connection with the losses of the last war. Yet like any work of art, the song also reaches those who face minor less important losses that move them. Reflections on post WWII society, alienation and how Britain did and did not cope well with young people in the post war era become a major theme in Floyd’s music. Other Pink Floyd songs to listen to: Money, Breathe, Comfortably Numb, The Great Gig in the Sky, Another Brick in the Wall (part 2), Us and Them, Time. As always I really enjoyed your reaction.

Great review, Diane! This really was a thought provoking album as tribute to Syd Barrett ("Wish You Were Here" & "Shine On You Crazy Diamond"), and also a cynical stab at the record industry ("Have a Cigar" & "Welcome to the Machine"). In those days, it was not unusual for concept albums to have fewer, longer songs, in this case four. Note that "Shine On..." is split into Parts I -V and Parts VI-IX. Barrett's mental health issues were certainly exacerbated by his extreme use of hallucinogenic drugs in the 60's. I think you could relate to the two songs about the "Industry", being similar to acting. The cover art depicts one man "getting burned" in a business handshake... Hope you're having a Wonderful Wǝᴉɍdnesday!

Bless your youth Diane. When this was released music videos didn't exist. This is my favourite Pink Floyd song, so beautiful, do melodic and so pertinent to so many people in difficult relationships.

This has always been my favorite Pink Floyd song. Like a lot of other people, the meaning behind it changed for me when I lost someone dear to me. I still love you Holly and I miss you every day.

Great song and reaction. Many videos have nothing to do with the song. Just eye candy for you to watch as you listen. Keep enjoying your musical journey. 😊🎉❤

I saw a documentary about this album. One or more band members (I don't remember which) said Shine On You Crazy Diamond was about Syd. The whole album was for him after he had to leave.

Every Pink Floyd song tells a story that is a story within a story. It is like The song is a story within an album which is a larger story. Then each album together with the other albums are a larger series of stories.

Back many years ago...... you didn't listen to some bands as single tracks. You listened to the album, then you follow the idea/story then hear the music. The Beatles started the album concept. Floyd, just continued from it, to another level.

My sister and I were visiting Edinburgh Scotland last Fall. As anyone knows who lives there or visits, there is always a bagpiper playing on Princes Street, usually traditional tunes. One day we walked by, saw a big crowd, and heard a trio: guitarist, drummer, and bagpiper playing this song. It was fantastic.

A lot of their songs are “pretty chill”, but they typically have a much deeper meaning. Their album ‘The Wall’ is an entire journey from beginning to end, and is really amazing.
