  • why does everybody read into everything Barrettt says as being strange or insane?

    seems to me he knew this man was trying to pick at his brain

  • There is all this heavy, negative propaganda about Syd Barrett, just listen to the nonsense at the beginning of this video. Why does Syd get this orchestrated & undeserved bad rap - even from Waters himself? WTF is up with that! High strangeness!

    unwittingly? are you for real??

  • @DanikaJadeee

    leave the man alone, was just enough his trip. imagine that on the backdrop of revolutionising music in the face of the draconian people of the 60s, all with dull questions like this interviewer, would be scary at the least. Part of syd's problem was people thinking he had a problem. the halo effect of ignorance. peace

  • syd had some mental problems it wasn't all the drugs sheesh

  • @JackTheBaptizer its called jealousy. me, i am a creative force and i say and do things that others consider outrageous, but to me are just run of the mill. and also, well, sid did fuck himself up pretty good. fuck the rest of pink floyd, give me a LIFETIME of listening to nothing but sid barrett and i would be happy as hell. thank you.

  • @Roberthenryii, You're 1000% so f*** damn right !

  • to be fair to Syd, those are some of the lamest questions I've ever heard in an interview.. "What are you working on inside yourself?" I mean come on..

  • it is 4th time listening to it.

  • @Ayan102 Shine on you crazy Diamond, after they haven't seen him in years, he was completely out of it. Not near the same peroson he was. I'm pretty sure that's some form of a mental illness. Like David said "Syd's just a story that fan's turned into some sad romantic story, when it's really not like that at all." (Something like that.) Now at the same time, don't get me wrong, I'm a huge fan of Pink Floyd, including their music with Syd.

  • @Ayan102 Are you seriously denying that he had a little fling with acid,? Haha, come on the rest of the band even reported one or a couple incidents where he just sat there de-tuning the guitar, and just completely stopped playing. There's another video here on youtube of him running around completely out of his head. And many times the band reported odd behaviour out of Syd towards the last times they saw him. And the time he showed up at the studio when they were recording (1/2)
