when I was in the mental ward patients would always chime in when I mentioned a pink floyd lyric or saying…“if you don’t eat your meat, you don’t get any pudding…how can you get any pudding if you don’t eat your meat”? stuff like that.

Watching Syd Barrett lose it had a big impact on their work. Psychedelics, too, but insanity is a definite theme in their work. Crazy people probably like them because they skirted so close to craziness in their songs. I mean just listen to Brain Damage

I think if Syd Barrett had stayed well Pink floyd would have gone in a very different, more creative direction. ‘Arnold Layne’ and ‘See Emily play’ are great singles.
