Syd's song 'Dark Globe' from his 1970 solo album 'The Madcap laughs' with pictures of him with Pink Floyd as well as his solo era.
For anyone who doesn't know who Syd Barrett was, he was the originial singer/songwriter for Pink Floyd, who gave them their name and direction. He had to leave the band in 1968 after only one album, because of his erratic behavour possibly caused by too much LSD and/or mental illness. He made two solo albums in the following years.
Lyrics
Oh where are you now?
Pussy willow that smiled on this leaf
when I was alone you promised a stone from your heart
my head kissed the ground
I was half the way down, treading the sand,
Please, please lift a hand
I'm only a person whose arm bands beats
And his hands hang tall
Won't you miss me?
Wouldn't you miss me at all?
The poppy birds wave
Swing twigs coffee brands around
Brandish a wand with a feathery tongue
My head kissed the ground
I was half the way down, treading the sand,
Please, please, please lift a hand
I'm only a person
With eskimo chain
I tattooed my brain all away
Won't you miss me?
Wouldn't you miss me at all?

I think Waters' more crazed sounding vocals were very inspired by this song.
