Reviews about The piper at the gates of dawn
so you want to know which one is pink | Reviewer: m. j. zaragumma | 3/10/2006
syd barrett is pink, full stop. this is to me the most beautifully written and performed rock album, both in terms of its words and music. although one is entitled to an opinion, to compare its lyrics to the search for WsMD in Iraq is simply stupid. barrett's words are poetic and beautiful, and not unlike most poems, they don't seem to make much sense at first, but a careful reading into them with an open mind is certainly rewarding. they're painful, nightmarish, nostalgic, innocent, child-like, profound and sad (just to name a few). the powerful music then perfectly carries the words. nowhere can you find this perfect match of words and music in pop music, and it's an amazing journey and sometimes overwhelming experience listening to this album. and yes, no wonder he ended up in a lunatic bin, it's definitely not easy to cope with such powerful feelings.

One of the weirdest...and best | Reviewer: Voness | 10/30/2005
The first Pink Floyd album is an absolute ripper musically. Lyrically it makes about as much as sense as searching for non existent WsMD in Iraq but who cares?? If you want to find out what drugs can do to you, buy this album! You will see why Syd Barrett ended up in a looney bin.
