This world in general can be so cruel... Syd was beyond all that, he knew gentility, something that is rare to find in this world, but once you know it, it will stay with you forever I loved her... she loved me... she (my girlfriend) was always so gentle with me, so pure... I never expected her to destroy me like this... but "I knew a girl, and I like her still..." I haven't given up on her, and I hope she won't give up on me
Syd was a genius. Syd was a giant. I feel so sad that his works didn't become famous that much, and the world didn't respond to his genius in his lifetime. And when we realized that we hadn't let a star blossom, the poor chap had grown old. A flower wasn't allowed to blossom when he had the energy of a young man flowing through him. And he is definitely better than The Beatles. WE MISS YOU SYD!!!!
not sure why you had to compare him to the beatles, they have nothing in common... but yeah, it makes me sad when i think about syd's life and career. he was, and i rarely say this, a genius...
Lol at the unhinged obsession some people have with comparing everything. Syd would be disturbed. The Beatles were The Beatles. Syd was Syd. Don't be asleep to reality.
he was a one man beatles allright. just not in the right place at the right time. the hypertrophy of the music industry wasnt his thing and he got out early is what i like to tell myself.
this is one of Syd Barrett's best songs ever. So sweet That must be Rick Wright on keyboards. Syd is still sadly missed .'Piper at the gates of dawn is still one of the best albums of all time. Poor thing. , poor unlucky genius. R.I.P.
John Smith i hope this is not sarcasm, he suffered of serious mental illnesses and drugs made them 100 times worse. With time he stopped losing interests in life. He died in 2006 but mentally i think he died years earlier
This is probably one of Syd's most simple pieces of work yet for me personally I find it one of his most beautiful. How I would have loved to have heard many more years of his voice as I also would have Ian Curtis.
According to New Order, Syd walked in the studio while Joy Division was recording. I've never seen this story apart from an interview, but it's a weird fact if it is true.
Ditto, this is a painting but just constructed using music and poetry instead of a paintbrush, and if anyone can't see that, then hard lines to you. Syd was a genius and an important inspiration to generations of future successful artists.
i disagree. this song, and the vibe it has, is clearly syd's state of mind. there is some loneliness, sone emptiness mixed with a beatiful touch of melancholy and a joyful piano. that, in my opinion, is how syd barrett felt when he went solo...
I knew a girl and I like her still She said she knew she would trust me And I her will I said, ok baby, tell me what you'll be And I'll lay my head down and see what I see. By the time she was back By her open eyes I knew that I was in for a big surprise.

What a beautiful song! Richard's harmonium and tin tack piano is just perfect accompaniment to Syd's wonderful piece of music and your video is the icing on the cake! Absolutely gorgeous!
I love this song, I find it really touching. Although simple, I find, to me at least, it shows Syd's vulnerable and exposed side. Sometimes simple is the most beautiful option.
For me, his songs are dawn and dusk at the same time. The very little second just before birth and the very little second after death in one moment...I adore him deeply
although i love waking up to Syd (as I just did when i pulled up youtube and this vid was there) it always forces me to go down the Syd rabbit hole and burn up my entire morning!
i think syd might have bin a borderline personality case,it also fits the fact that he never forgave the floyds,the self destruct he had with and after the band,the day he showed up on the studio,fat and bold ,is a clearly a sign for self destruct-in other words-a call for help,syd made himself lonely but he suffered every single day from it. all he needed is love.
He was a great musician.... It's sad that the music world was cruel to him...
true !!!
I think he should be done to show him in all his spender let everyone see sad to lose it
A part of it, but it doesn't matter, we are the outsiders and they are the loosers

Syd was already gone before before the music world,he was taking acid like candy

His whole life he was enjoyed thru the sonic scapes he created
And a lovely boy too,

syd only genious
idd.....fantastic piece of music
You write a comment, then
Why poor, why unlucky? He did great. Didn't even need to use his hands while playing live.
John Smith i hope this is not sarcasm, he suffered of serious mental illnesses and drugs made them 100 times worse. With time he stopped losing interests in life. He died in 2006 but mentally i think he died years earlier

Two very similar figures in UK music, just a decade apart!
Much missed
Wined and Dined is also one of my favorite Syd songs.
Weird, I’ve been on a Joy Division kick and just found myself hear after looking for sad songs.
According to New Order, Syd walked in the studio while Joy Division was recording. I've never seen this story apart from an interview, but it's a weird fact if it is true.
I can always come back to Syd's songs to feel good. Such beauty in simplicity.
I do as well......
This is beautiful, it just seems so, well like you can see his vulnerable side. I will have this played at my wedding.
Did you get married and did you have this song played at your wedding? I’ve been waiting for almost 10 yrs to find out.
It’s also about dropping acid 😵💫
So simple, light and magic. Such a happy song, don't feel sad for Syd. Celebrate the songs he left us.
Wonder what Syd would have thought of all the love his music and art keep getting, 13 years after his death.
He would appreciate the love
I hope he'd think "But why not more?"
He didn't care much for his musical adoration and fame. But he loved painting
it's hard to connect and love people when you are far out/in your head, and disconnected. hard to do.
You know it brother, hope ur doing good out there
Star is shining in the sky for Syd god bless him❤
This song is so relaxing,like a nice walk... Syd was beautiful,too..
Ditto, this is a painting but just constructed using music and poetry instead of a paintbrush, and if anyone can't see that, then hard lines to you.
Syd was a genius and an important inspiration to generations of future successful artists.
I wish I could have met him once in my life!!!!
Yeah
Syd or Roger?
Oui moi aussi😊
This is an insight to what Floyd would've sounded like if Syd stayed only Rick and Dave were in tune with him.
i disagree. this song, and the vibe it has, is clearly syd's state of mind. there is some loneliness, sone emptiness mixed with a beatiful touch of melancholy and a joyful piano. that, in my opinion, is how syd barrett felt when he went solo...
60s and 70s uk rock is the best.
Canzone fantastica ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Grande! 🇮🇹
a song that seems made to make an irresistible homesickness feel for an irretrievably lost time
M'y favorite Barrett song, thé piano parts are pure magic !
I knew a girl and I like her still
She said she knew she would trust me
And I her will
I said, ok baby, tell me what you'll be
And I'll lay my head down and see what I see.
By the time she was back
By her open eyes
I knew that I was in for a big surprise.

Thanks a lot
I love Syd's beautiful English voice and poetry and melodies, all just him with a few friends helping record.
What a beautiful song! Richard's harmonium and tin tack piano is just perfect accompaniment to Syd's wonderful piece of music and your video is the icing on the cake! Absolutely gorgeous!
Hi I recommend an indie song and album here on youtube called 'Looking Into The Mirror' By Robert Nix
Syd sure had the look. timeless my grandkids love him he was remarkable
I love this song, I find it really touching. Although simple, I find, to me at least, it shows Syd's vulnerable and exposed side. Sometimes simple is the most beautiful option.
No soul on earth can make out the love I have for him and this song
Syd Barrett 💖 what a great song, Great Voice. If it wasn't for him and Roger Waters, there be No Pink Floyd. Always in our Hearts 💕🌹🌹

For me, his songs are dawn and dusk at the same time. The very little second just before birth and the very little second after death in one moment...I adore him deeply
Syd is the best.
this song holds a special place in my heart 😖
Happy Birthday Syd, wish I had known you, still, I feel like I did. R.I.P Syd
R.I.P. Barrett, you inspire me greatly
although i love waking up to Syd (as I just did when i pulled up youtube and this vid was there) it always forces me to go down the Syd rabbit hole and burn up my entire morning!
great to see this one back my friend!
the loving people are coming together all over this planet.
Words can't describe how i feel about Syd's art, all i can say is wowzers🙊♡
The genius and the really fondator of Pink Floyd.
seemingly innocent , yet you hear Syd's incredible genius, he had a way with words and his philosophy intricate. Mad cap laugh!!
When days was better , great syd

My new favorite of Syds

Ele foi original como poucos!
RIP Syd ❤
quasi mezzo secolo fa; ancora oggi emozioni dal " diamante pazzo ". Che elegante malinconia
I love how the very start is clearly the tune of "Arnold Layne. It's not the same.."
Miss You, Syd... So much...
A British Darling.... Stunning... Quality... Very very pretty...
Lovely song. Syd got some good musical backing from Gilmour and the rest on this one
Delightful!
Amazing song even more relevant now days
God bless Syd.
Povero Sid.... Un vero genio, un vero Diamante folle .
Sensacional!

InlovecSyd ...above all in the night....we are Energy
I wanna go tree climbing with Iggy and Syd.
Filmed in 1967!
1967? I'd say it must have been around 1970..
RIP Iggy the eskimo
@@mimidean6950 hahah mimi dean. You and I have the same aesthetic.
Filmed early '69.

One of (the only one perhaps) Syd's best songs I've ever listened.
Wonderful ☺
Pasan los años y lo voy a seguir escuchando. Syd Barrett desdé Argentina 2017.
