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
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...
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 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.

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.
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
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.
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!
Syd Barrett es el equivalente a Brian Jones, dos genios incomprendidos con muchos problemas personales de adicción y de cierto modo sobrepasaban encima de los miembros de sus respectivas bandas. Ambos fueron expulsados de sus agrupaciones, ambos bautizaron a sus grupos y sus creatividades no tenían límites.
So simple, light and magic. Such a happy song, don't feel sad for Syd. Celebrate the songs he left us.
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

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
I can always come back to Syd's songs to feel good. Such beauty in simplicity.
I do as well......
This is an insight to what Floyd would've sounded like if Syd stayed only Rick and Dave were in tune with him.

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.

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?"
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
This song is so relaxing,like a nice walk... Syd was beautiful,too..
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.
I can’t stop loving you
60s and 70s uk rock is the best.
I wish I could have met him once in my life!!!!
Yeah
Syd or Roger?
Oui moi aussi😊
The genius and the really fondator of Pink Floyd.
Star is shining in the sky for Syd god bless him❤
No soul on earth can make out the love I have for him and this song
Canzone fantastica ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Grande! 🇮🇹
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.
I knew a girl and I like her still

By her open eyes

Thanks a lot
I love Syd's beautiful English voice and poetry and melodies, all just him with a few friends helping record.
Poor little darling. I want him back
I do too. ..
so sweet
He was too sweet and innocent for this cruel world 💎
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 !
Shine on you,Syd! Rest in peace with Rick !
R.I.P. Barrett, you inspire me greatly
this song holds a special place in my heart 😖

I strongly agree.
Happy Birthday Syd, wish I had known you, still, I feel like I did. R.I.P Syd
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 era ed è il diamante pazzo della musica
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.

Beautiful song !!!
probably the best video put together to go along with this song
Linda mesmo, provavelmente uma das melhores canções de amor de todos os tempos.
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.
So sweet and honestly raw no words
I love how the very start is clearly the tune of "Arnold Layne. It's not the same.."
Miss You, Syd... So much...
Amazing song even more relevant now days

Syd....knew what he doing....escaping big money machine of the floyd...
Escaping Tavistock more like. I really wish I knew the truth about Brian Wilson and Syd Barrett especially.
@@jm-tl6od Indeed......i think, the counter-culture, of 1960s, was MK-Ultra.....CIA....
@@marclayne9261 I also think Paul is dead lol
@@jm-tl6od Indeed!
I love all these comments....
Ele foi original como poucos!
God bless Syd.
Syd was his own worst enemy.
awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww we love and miss you,syd!!! xxx
Lovely song. Syd got some good musical backing from Gilmour and the rest on this one
I knew a girl and I like her still
