Shine On You Crazy Diamond (Full Length: Parts I - IX) - Pink Floyd

This is for people who have always wanted to listen (or download) Shine On You Crazy Diamond in full.

All nine parts of Shine On You Crazy Diamond, which is one of the greatest pieces of music made. This composition was a tribute to former band member, Syd Barrett. Written and performed by Roger Waters, David Gilmour and Richard Wright. From the album "Wish You Were Here".

Lyrics:
(Parts I-V)
Remember when you were young, you shone like the sun.
Shine on you crazy diamond.
Now there's a look in your eyes, like black holes in the sky.
Shine on you crazy diamond.
You were caught on the crossfire of childhood and stardom,
blown on the steel breeze.
Come on you target for faraway laughter,
come on you stranger, you legend, you martyr, and shine!
You reached for the secret too soon, you cried for the moon.
Shine on you crazy diamond.
Threatened by shadows at night, and exposed in the light.
Shine on you crazy diamond.
Well you wore out your welcome with random precision,
rode on the steel breeze.
Come on you raver, you seer of visions,
come on you painter, you piper, you prisoner, and shine!
(Parts VI-IX)
Nobody knows where you are, how near or how far.
Shine on you crazy diamond.
Pile on many more layers and I'll be joining you there.
Shine on you crazy diamond.
And we'll bask in the shadow of yesterday's triumph,
sail on the steel breeze.
Come on you boy child, you winner and loser,
come on you miner for truth and delusion, and shine.

WTF man, Barrett died in 2006 and this album was released in September 1975. Are you on crack?

[Sarthak Joshi]

FALSE. he actually walked into the studio while they were recording this. he actually died very recently in 2006

This is a pink floyd song i wouldnt be amazed if he was stoned :P

[Za5lol]

well, technically speaking this song sets the perfect mood for crack :D

[Martin Tynan]

When the end of this cut fades out I always wanted for them to take me with them. The Pink Floyd multi-verse.....the space between here and there......the perfection of what was the genius of PINK FLOYD.

25 minutes of heaven

[PsychedelicRockFan1]

Quality song, Floyds best IMO with Echoes and Pigs (Three Different Ones) very close behind.

[chrileons]

And your point is...? hahaha we all know he was no longer in Pink Floyd when this was released.
