Shine on Raaaid, you crazy Diamond.

Do you have any musical abilities at all? Maybe you could forge a Cult following like Syd Barret, 'The Madcap Laughs' is actually a very good record.

Here's Syd's version of a James Joyce Poem from the 'Chamber Music' collection (Poem V ). Very poignant and sad, in a way.

Lean out of the window,
Goldenhair,
I hear you singing
A merry air.

My book was closed,
I read no more,
Watching the fire dance
On the floor.

I have left my book,
I have left my room,
For I heard you singing
Through the gloom.

Singing and singing
A merry air,
Lean out of the window,
Goldenhair.


Just say no, Kidz. Syd was great, shame he went bonkers.
