Bike – Pink Floyd

Bike – Pink Floyd

Thanks for the earworm Gnotic Pasta 

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.

You’re the kind of girl that fits in with my world.

I’ll give you anything, ev’rything if you want things.

I’ve got a cloak. It’s a bit of a joke.

There’s a tear up the front. It’s red and black.

I’ve had it for months.

If you think it could look good, then I guess it should.

You’re the kind of girl that fits in with my world.

I’ll give you anything, ev’rything if you want things.

I know a mouse, and he hasn’t got a house.

I don’t know why. I call him Gerald.

He’s getting rather old, but he’s a good mouse.

You’re the kind of girl that fits in with my world.

I’ll give you anything, ev’rything if you want things.

I’ve got a clan of gingerbread men.

Here a man, there a man, lots of gingerbread men.

Take a couple if you wish. They’re on the dish.

You’re the kind of girl that fits in with my world.

I’ll give you anything, ev’rything if you want things.

I know a room of musical tunes.

Some rhyme, some ching. Most of them are clockwork.

Let’s go into the other room and make them work.

A Pillow of Winds – Pink Floyd

A Pillow of Winds – Pink Floyd

A little afternoon Floyd 🙂

A cloud of eider down

Draws around me softening the sound

Sleepy time when I lie

With my love by my side

And she’s breathing low

And the candle dies.

When night comes down you lock the door

The boot falls to the floor

As darkness falls the waves roll by

The seasons change

The wind is warm.

Now wakes the owl, now sleeps the swan

Behold a dream, the dream is gone

Green fields

A cold rain is falling

Near the golden dawn.

And deep beneath the ground

The early morning sounds and I go down

Sleepy time in my life

With my love by my side

And she’s breathing low

And I rise like a bird

In the haze and the first rays touch the sky

And the night winds die.

Obscured by Bokeh

Obscured by Bokeh

Someone commented on Rajini Rao  post about a Syd Barrett video http://goo.gl/u2W5l so it popped into my notifications.

I figured it’s time to share some Pink Floyd. Then I thought I should find something obscure. Although I ♥ all things Floyd, Dark Side of the Moon can be shared only so many times. Ditto for The Wall. Then I thought, I haven’t listened to Obscured by Clouds in a long time.

So here is Childhood’s End on Obscured by Clouds. Obscured by Clouds was Pink Floyd’s soundtrack for the French film La Vallée, which is about a woman who goes on a search of a mysterious hidden valley in the bush of New Guinea. The album was released in 1972 and reached number 1 in France, 6 in the UK, and 46 in the US :(. The album cover, which I sadly miss with CDs and DVDs, is a perfect example of Bokeh (intentional blur, out of focus, photography).

Another interesting tidbit, check out the other users of the EMS VCS3 synthesizer, which was used on Obscured by Clouds.
