I don't think he was a genius. I think he was a talented guy that did far too many drugs and destroyed too many brain cells. He was very creative, inventive and smart but the word genius is too often used to give the word any real utility.

​@@scott7521 He definitely destroyed his mind, I have no doubt in that. But I maintain that he was a genius. The structuring of his songs and how he went about constructing them is absolutely uniquely creative, and something that had hardly been done before. The definition of a genius is "a person who is exceptionally intelligent or creative, either generally or in some particular respect" and I'd say Syd Barrett was exceptionally intelligent and creative, even if his mental health issues destroyed his quality of life.

I don't know why but hearing him say "ICE SCREAM 'SCUSE ME" is so strangely satisfying

This must be the most intriguing lyrics ever written. I wont ever stop smiling listening to this. Thank you Syd:)

this song has been stuck in my head for 2 days straight.

For all the people that are asking about if he says ´ice cream or i scream excuse me´ it's just a language paradox, Syd was very clever, he just made both meanings in one

This song, like all of Syd's songs, makes me feel young again. Hearing it can make it feel 1970 all over again, for me. : )

I think this song is simply joyful 😀, thank you Syd, for the “jolly good singles”!

Syd's music, to me, never sounds old or dated, it feels new, ea. time. Music for the ages.

I gave up a long time ago trying to play Syds music on my guitar, his time signatures and chord progressions are just insane, but he somehow makes them work beautifully, I have much better luck on the piano with his music......he was so simply complicated 😂

No matter how many times I listen to this. Hilariously brilliant. omg wtf he got into my brain so long ago and this is just brain candy now, I love Syd's antics. Even though you could see him sitting in a coffee shop uttering these words with a totally straight face with everyday facial expressions in appropriate places with a random band in the background rocking out while he talks he did it with this random precision of humor. God damn its good!

50 years ago Syd blessed us with this.

Spettacolare. È tutto così confusionario e incredibilmente orchestrato allo stesso tempo. Ogni strumento sembra che vada per i cavoli suoi ma nell'insieme è tutto così perfettamente parallelo. La chitarra poi ha un sound così svogliato e menefreghista che sembra quasi volutamente scordata. Syd aveva un senso del tempo eccezionale, come pochi. Come spezzava i tempi a tradimento riuscendo a rendere la cosa fottutamente orecchiabile comunque, lo sapeva solo lui. Era uno di quelli che bisognava lasciarlo fare, perchè mentre metteva in piedi tutto questo apparente casino un pezzo alla volta, chiunque (fra quelli che seguono solo ed esclusivamente la logica) non c'avrebbe capito una mazza fino a che il quadro non fosse completo. Solo alla fine tutto assume un senso. È come quando si fa un puzzle senza sapere quale sarà l'immagine finale che dovremo comporre, all'inizio non si capisce bene che cosa si sta componendo, alle volte può sembrare che ci si stia sbagliando ad assemblare questo o quel pezzo perchè la logica non riesce a concepire cosa possa essere l'immagine che si sta creando al momento, ma quando tutti i pezzi vengono messi al loro posto ecco che il quadro diventa molto più nitido. Syd era così, lui sapeva gia qual'era l'immagine del puzzle ancora prima di unire i pezzi, per questo non era capito. I produttori delle case discografiche dettati dalla logica non capivano cosa stava facendo durante le sessioni di registrazione e non facevano altro che lamentarsi ma poi guarda alla fine che cavolo ti tirava fuori. Posso capire da un verso la frustrazione dei produttori discografici che per loro era un po' come badare un bambino (dato i noti problemi di droga e i comportamenti bizzarri che aveva Syd) e avrebbero apprezzato un comportamento più sobrio e professionale ma l'unico modo per me era lasciarlo fare, lasciarli la briglia sciolta. I risultati poi arrivavano, non c'è dubbio.

Maaan, that's seriously so impressive! Haven't heard this one in a good bit. The way the strumming and chord changes flow along with the time signature, not to mention his words, is just bonkers. What a pioneer.

the first time i heard this was the last time i heard this. wacked on cubensis on a nude beach on the big island played by two dudes with mandolin and acoustic guitar at sunset. LOVE YOU!

I scream you scream we all scream for ice cream

He was gorgeous

I'd say it's "the perfect lovesong". Ever been in love? Did you feel completely sane? I don't think so. Me neither. *wink

To me this is more Pink Floyd than anything post Final Cut could ever be.

I scream, "he's my ice cream!"

I love syd’s music with all my love.

He says "ice cream". Remember, Syd was the type to make random lyrics to screw with people.

Wonderful Barrett.

marvelous poetry .... unique sensibility ...

Love you too, Syd. xxx

can't stop to play again and again and again...

Has anyone else ever thought it might be "I scream ''scuse me, I seen you lookin' good the other evening!'" rather than ice cream like most lyric write ups say? I scream makes more sense.. any opinions?

Very happy piece... I can picture him singing this ^__^

Such a catchy tune.

man can easily say at his solo albums, which song was recorded with Syd in good mood, and which with Syd in bad mood, without motivation. This is clearly example of the firt group, luckily :-) Nice bluesy tune :-)

love you, syd

What a composer

This is every beetle member and their talent in one amazing guy love the beetles but give credit wear credit is due

Ice creammmm sceeewwwzzzz me hunny hunny luv ya Syd

amazing song love Syd

Grande Syd.

I know a good time rocker woman.

Great album

aww i love him

Quote by MIKE WATKINSON ~ "The following month, various members of SOFT MACHINE tackled the difficult task of overdubbing on Syd's ragged and unpredictable tracks [Love You, No Good Trying & Clowns And Jugglers/Octopus]. The group's Robert Wyatt thought the sessions were merely rehearsals for the real thing. "We'd say, 'What key is that in Syd? And he would simply reply: 'Yeah!' or 'That's funny'."

Fantastically Awesome!

What a romantic expressionism theme of the 60/69 times a nice greeting to meet you.?

HAPPY BIRTHDAY SYD BARRETT!
