Mods pull.
My favorite tune by Pink Floyd, even though it failed to chart.
I think it/they were The Pink Floyd at that point.
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
I’m going to have to look the video more carefully... I thought I saw Nick, Doug, Richard, Roger and Syd. But then I realized there were only 4 in the piece.... I think.
Seem to recall Roger Waters marveling at that lyric by Barrett. As in, perfectly capturing what it meant to be young and British, or a similar compliment. Waters seemed to be saying that nobody came close to Syd’s knack for pop lyrics. Not being a creative, Thus Guy defers to Roger.
Careful with That Axe, Eugene
Remember a Day is my favorite on Relics. Just because of the drums.
My favorite early PF song is Rick Wright’s “Paintbox”.
