Trying to learn this song on guitar. The chords are simple, but the phrasing is difficult as hell. I'm realizing how Syd's genius in songwriting worked... There are emphases in his vocals that are not "signaled" by any emphasis in the guitar line. Most music, in my limited experience, "cues" changes in the other instruments, especially vocals... But with Syd, it's almost like playing two different songs at the same time in some spots. Then in other spots the changes are right with the words/beat, like you'd expect. And I've not even mentioned the strumming pattern and chord changes at unexpected points in the vocal line. All of this creates an "emotional" effect. I think maybe it's how really good songs are able to hit the listener emotionally, while only using the same notes and chords as every other song. It's going to take a lot of practice for such a "simple" song.

He's not called a genius by those-in-the-know for nothing!

I'm not judgmental here, I'm just trying to keep realistic. The lunatics are in our brains.

This song is a cry for help from someone that knows they're losing their mind. Syd knew that music was his passion, but for some reason, every time he'd get into recording, he'd lose it. More & more. Thus, this was the song where he realized that it was music making him crazy, but music is what he wanted to do. That is why this song brings me to tears every time. It's reminiscent of someone gasping for air, after they filled the room with the poison they love so dearly. I know the feeling

@@redacted2275 I think painting and other visual arts were easier and more comforting than music for Barrett, possibly because they were stationary, while music is always moving in time and requires some structure in relation to conventional measures of time. We can observe from the last decades of his life that he gave up trying to communicate with the outside world with words, preferring to be alone and to create images, mostly for himself. I don't know if that's a tragedy or not. Who knows what degree of happiness or satisfaction with life he had in later years? He wouldn't tell anyone. He gave up on us, even if we didn't give up on him.

some say syd was insane, a mad cap, I say he was one of the few who had a grasp of the joys of life. This music is mental, intuitive, and so real to me. perfectly imperfect like life is.

[follows] - Furthermore, I met people in Cambridge that knew him and said he was a definitely lovely guy, adored by everybody in town.

Keith Barrett same here😢

“Dark Globe” (1970) shows Syd Barrett’s awareness of his own psychological state. He was a founding member of Pink Floyd, but mental illness led him to a reclusive life. The take of this tune on the LP “The Madcap Laughs” (1970) was played out of time by Barrett, who skipped or added beats at will. There is another version of the song on the album “Opel,” (1988), a compilation of Barrett out-takes, also known as “Wouldn’t You Miss Me?”… Both Roger Waters and David Gilmour took time off from their work as “Pinkers” (for want of a better term) to help produce their former bandmate’s record. 💜🎵💜 May you rest in peace, Roger Keith “Syd” Barrett (1946 - 2006)…🌹

Painfully sad song. God I love syd, may his legacy live on forever

this whole album just shows how much of pain and pressure syd was goin through.sad to see the genius fade away.

This is one of the saddest songs in the world. At the time it was written, Syd was losing his mind. But he was on the cusp, so he was slightly aware of this. The more he did music, the more he lost his mind (the LSD didn't help). This song, to me, is the crying out of a person who is realizing the very thing they love the most is the thing that's driving them mad. And it breaks my heart. Shortly after this album, he simply went further over the edge into insanity. What's worse is that far later, when Pink Floyd was recording Wish You Were Here (about Syd), Syd showed up. Ready to get back into music again, only to further demonstrate his mental illness... bringing the band to tears for being reunited w/a person they loved so much only to have him disappear before their eyes into insanity. I don't know why, but I have a HUGE emotional affinity for those who supposedly have gone "insane."

I don't rely only on his albums: I've read a number of biographies on Syd Barrett, and found that he was a kind and sensitive person who passed through a tough time in his life, as many do. And this is how he's always been described by people who knew him well, like his sister. If I were a "type to believe a sly liar", I'd totally agree with you.

Syd is a unique individual and there was no one who was more original than Syd. No one can argue that Syd lost touch with reality, but whether that makes him insane or crazy, is debatable. RIP Syd!

Yes, he was a genius and yes, he had serious issues with drug abuse and mental illness, but he managed to (pretty much) recover. He lived happily, peacefully and normally for the rest 25 years of his life. He wanted to be left alone with his cycling tours, his walks, his garden and his art (paintings) and he got exactly what he wanted. By all accounts, he died a happy man. Btw, when he died, he had 2 million $ on his bank account - all that coming from Gilmour and Waters taking care he never got cheated out of his royalties.

@@Oh_I_Will sorry I should of specified. Syd Barrett & Pink Floyd: Dark Globe by Julian Palacios

Just a tear😥

We used to have a band called Dark Globe... back in the early 80s

This track is the spirit behind The Wall. It reminds me to "Don't leave me now"
