Syd Barrett-Love You

He changes his timing EVERYWHERE. It makes this song so hard to play.

[@ABurgess]

Band: hey Syd.. what's the meter on this tune? Syd: uhhh... one.. Band: ..okay, would you count us off? Syd: yeah... one, one, one, one

[@beckner4200]

I scream "Scuse me, I seen you looking good the other evening." Syd's the man.

[@BirkinIdk]

this man was an absolute genius.

[@silverdragon710]

Why do people keep saying that? Literally no other word anyone describes him it's just "genius" all across the board. I like his stuff a lot but idk why is he genius and others not as much?

[@RayonConmar]

@@silverdragon710 He was the original creative mind behind Pink Floyd. Even after drugs began to destroy him he was still able to make some extremely unique and innovative music.

[@scott7521]

I don't think he was a genius. I think he was a talented guy that did far too many drugs and destroyed too many brain cells. He was very creative, inventive and smart but the word genius is too often used to give the word any real utility.

[@BirkinIdk]

​@@scott7521 He definitely destroyed his mind, I have no doubt in that. But I maintain that he was a genius. The structuring of his songs and how he went about constructing them is absolutely uniquely creative, and something that had hardly been done before. The definition of a genius is "a person who is exceptionally intelligent or creative, either generally or in some particular respect" and I'd say Syd Barrett was exceptionally intelligent and creative, even if his mental health issues destroyed his quality of life.

[@thinginground5179]

@@silverdragon710 He literally invented Pink Floyd, and was the inspiration behind the "big 3" albums that they released in the 70s.

How can this song not make you smile?

[@galletasgeorge4305]

For all the people that are asking about if he says ´ice cream or i scream excuse me´ it's just a language paradox, Syd was very clever, he just made both meanings in one

[@JoeJoe-is1ki]

yes indeed

[@cheekymouse4]

I always thought ice cream as she looks delicious : )

This song, like all of Syd's songs, makes me feel young again. Hearing it can make it feel 1970 all over again, for me. : )

[@KortKramer]

50 years ago Syd blessed us with this.

[@TristanH90]

No matter how many times I listen to this. Hilariously brilliant. omg wtf he got into my brain so long ago and this is just brain candy now, I love Syd's antics. Even though you could see him sitting in a coffee shop uttering these words with a totally straight face with everyday facial expressions in appropriate places with a random band in the background rocking out while he talks he did it with this random precision of humor. God damn its good!

[@AngelA-qj4jx]

I think this song is simply joyful 😀, thank you Syd, for the “jolly good singles”!

[@iLoveTreySongz94]

He was gorgeous

[@debianzz335]

Spettacolare. È tutto così confusionario e incredibilmente orchestrato allo stesso tempo. Ogni strumento sembra che vada per i cavoli suoi ma nell'insieme è tutto così perfettamente parallelo. La chitarra poi ha un sound così svogliato e menefreghista che sembra quasi volutamente scordata. Syd aveva un senso del tempo eccezionale, come pochi. Come spezzava i tempi a tradimento riuscendo a rendere la cosa fottutamente orecchiabile comunque, lo sapeva solo lui. Era uno di quelli che bisognava lasciarlo fare, perchè mentre metteva in piedi tutto questo apparente casino un pezzo alla volta, chiunque (fra quelli che seguono solo ed esclusivamente la logica) non c'avrebbe capito una mazza fino a che il quadro non fosse completo. Solo alla fine tutto assume un senso. È come quando si fa un puzzle senza sapere quale sarà l'immagine finale che dovremo comporre, all'inizio non si capisce bene che cosa si sta componendo, alle volte può sembrare che ci si stia sbagliando ad assemblare questo o quel pezzo perchè la logica non riesce a concepire cosa possa essere l'immagine che si sta creando al momento, ma quando tutti i pezzi vengono messi al loro posto ecco che il quadro diventa molto più nitido. Syd era così, lui sapeva gia qual'era l'immagine del puzzle ancora prima di unire i pezzi, per questo non era capito. I produttori delle case discografiche dettati dalla logica non capivano cosa stava facendo durante le sessioni di registrazione e non facevano altro che lamentarsi ma poi guarda alla fine che cavolo ti tirava fuori. Posso capire da un verso la frustrazione dei produttori discografici che per loro era un po' come badare un bambino (dato i noti problemi di droga e i comportamenti bizzarri che aveva Syd) e avrebbero apprezzato un comportamento più sobrio e professionale ma l'unico modo per me era lasciarlo fare, lasciarli la briglia sciolta. I risultati poi arrivavano, non c'è dubbio.

Era un musicista impressionista , a me piace definirlo così

[@terribleTed-ln6cm]

I gave up a long time ago trying to play Syds music on my guitar, his time signatures and chord progressions are just insane, but he somehow makes them work beautifully, I have much better luck on the piano with his music......he was so simply complicated 😂

Maaan, that's seriously so impressive! Haven't heard this one in a good bit. The way the strumming and chord changes flow along with the time signature, not to mention his words, is just bonkers. What a pioneer.

[@samnrob1]

Has anyone else ever thought it might be "I scream ''scuse me, I seen you lookin' good the other evening!'" rather than ice cream like most lyric write ups say? I scream makes more sense.. any opinions?

Quote by MIKE WATKINSON ~ "The following month, various members of SOFT MACHINE tackled the difficult task of overdubbing on Syd's ragged and unpredictable tracks [Love You, No Good Trying & Clowns And Jugglers/Octopus]. The group's Robert Wyatt thought the sessions were merely rehearsals for the real thing. "We'd say, 'What key is that in Syd? And he would simply reply: 'Yeah!' or 'That's funny'."
