Re: Syd Barrett has passed away

I have just read this, sad that he left due to drugs giving him mental problems, too many great people have fallen victim to them

RIP

Re: Syd Barrett has passed away

What a great shame that such talent was overshadowed by his subsceptibility to the culture of the time.

'Shine on you Crazy Diamond', just in a better place - RIP Syd.

Re: Syd Barrett has passed away

at least now he will finally be left in peace

at true legend and if not for him and other pioneers in the 60s who knows what sort of music we would be listening to today.. such a shame the younger generation today rarely appeciate these stars

will be listening to the classic Piper later on tonight

Re: Syd Barrett has passed away

I know he didnt write these lyrics but he was responsable for possibley the best band ever to have played a tune.The more I think about it the sadder I get.I have loved pink floyd since the first time I heard Dark side of the moon whilst stoned at the tender age af 14.So in remberence of Syds memory and the legacy he was responsable for.My favourite song by pink floyd Wish you were here


So, so you think you can tell Heaven from Hell,
blue skies from pain.
Can you tell a green field from a cold steel rail?
A smile from a veil?
Do you think you can tell?
And did they get you to trade your heroes for ghosts?
Hot ashes for trees?
Hot air for a cool breeze?
Cold comfort for change?
And did you exchange a walk on part in the war for a lead role in a cage?
How I wish, how I wish you were here.
We're just two lost souls swimming in a fish bowl, year after year,
Running over the same old ground.
What have we found? The same old fears.
Wish you were here.

There was nothing like floyd at the time. He was a talented genius with mental problems how many revered talented artists or composers were junkies or mental loads of them and people play millions for there are and music.
