So she would have been 49-50 at the 1975 release date. I would be fascinated to here if she has any interesting stories about things Syd fans might have said to her at the time if you'd be willing to share.

Who was Maisie to syd? A girlfriend? A relative?

I remember the very first time I ever heard this amazing song. ;) I was just discovering Pink Floyd for the first time, thanks to friends I had heard all the other albums and loved them but hadn't yet heard Syd's work. Then due to the Pink Floyd connection I bought the then-new "Opel". I was interested particularly since someone I knew at the time had written a PF discography, and under Syd's entry "The Madcap Laughs", he had simply written, "You've got to be a big Syd Barrett fan to like this album. It is highly strange and demented. So is his other one." I wondered whether or not it would end up being one of those truly "dark" albums that I would regret buying. Instead, I found absolutely nothing "strange" or "demented" about it; I was pleasantly surprised to discover lighthearted songwriting full of imagination, fun and potential. Yes, his voice did seem strange to me at first, but the material is so endearing that I quickly got past that. So then I bought the double vinyl album, "Syd Barrett", which of course was his first two albums as a double set. Loved it all front to back. And then I finally heard this song; WOW, what a mindblowingly freaky jam! I loved it! So full of attitude, and actually sort of spooky too, but in a fun, cool way. This guy's work was so awesome, so imaginative, and so flat-out FUN! ;D

Von Clohk Well it was obvious that his voice was strained upon first hearing it, but listening 2 the material through the vocal - I got used 2 that later - the songs themselves were obviously whimsical in nature & I was able 2 instantly see what they were meant 2 be; the 1 track that did haunt me a bit was what The Soft Machine members chose 2 do with "Clowns & Jugglers (Octopus)", which had a much stranger edge than what appeared on "The Madcap Laughs" - I like it, but can't really understand what those band members thought they were doing with the song, lol. There was 1 part that made me want 2 cry when I first heard it - the beginning of "Birdie Hop", obviously a children's song where at the start his voice was so cracked thar I teared up thinking, "OMG, What a beautiful talent lost 2 all those problems..." But in all, "Opel" didn't sound anything like I had originally thought it would sound like. Rolling Stone called it "spooky", but I call it "an extraordinary talent dealing with difficulties but nevertheless wrote lighthearted songs." ;) Rolling Stone was correct though when they called it an "extraordinary release" that was "a powerful & painful reminder of how much Syd Barrett had 2 share, & just how far out he was pushed on a limb 2 share it." Such a naturally amazing songwriter.

This is John, IErica went here and I had to comment right away. "We sat on the boats. Sea Phoenecian's, captured. "To Crete!' One of us yelled behind the guards back, he looked back." To the Island, to his Majesty! To his Bull. Even the guard laughed.

@pinkfloydfan22 Also you may not like Syd's voice, I find it quite interesting and good and his guitar skills are amazing to me .But the primary thing about Syd is that I love his music and that he is my favorite musician and I don't understand some of his songs but I love all of them.Trust me I'm not trying to criticize you like some people you just don't understand him,but its that magic in his song that attract a lot of people and thats why to me he is a genius and a master.

Lets face it it's just LSD fueled retro child nightmare put into words & music , but someone would 've done it at some point in time , just happened to be Syd and he nailed it.

Without Rodger Barrett, there would be No Pink Floyd. He was the architect of Pre Piper Floyd, and dominated that album. Maybe he did grow out of the Pop Star phase of his life, and lost interest in Pink Floyd, but his 2 solo releases were way ahead of curve. You can take or leave Gilmour's narrative on Syd's 2 LP releases, but musicality, structure and vocal are all Syd Barrett. And yes I too worshiped him as a Music Powerhouse right up there with Hendrix, but Syd's vocal arrangement and the lyrical content put him head and shoulders above any at this time. No wonder Roger Waters has such guilt and self hate, Roger Keith (Syd) Barrett was always superior to Waters.

@bravesoullabel Ok I really didn't want to reply but I have to,calling other people moronic is really not necessary,back to the subject.The theory you just presented is your theory of music someone has a different understanding of music and doesn't need intelligent lyrics to enjoy a song,I myself also love when there are good lyrics,but you can't define music.

This is not Syd. I know this song. It's a good cover, but it's not Syd.
