Oh yes, how did I forget about 'Jugband Blues!' My second favorite Syd w/ Pink Floyd song...

Amazing words to that song, especially the ending..."what exactly is a dream, what exactly is a joke..." Smile

It's awfully considerate of you to think of me here and I'm most obliged to you for making it clear that I'm not here

Amazing lyrics Thumbsup

So simple, yet so beautiful. And all the more poignant now of course... Sad

I've got 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!

"The Gnome". This song is like a children's book, and endearingly so. I'm also quite taken with "The Scarecrow" and "Arnold Layne".

Out of his solo works, you just can't beat "Here I Go".

I voted for Bike, because what can beat, this


"I've got a bike you can ride it if you like it's got a basket, bell, rings, and things to make it look good, I'd give it to you if I could, but I borrowed it."
