Aaaaaahhhhh, there wasn't a thread for Relics!? My own dear Relics!?
I guess no one loves you...

Except me!

I love this album, it's a perfect mix of good songs off of More and Piper (among others).

Even though it's officially a 'compilation' album, it's still my favourite PF album of all time.

I mean, I wouldn't have Julia Dream without Relics! Which you all know is my fave Floyd song, ( I still have no idea why, maybe 'cause the lyrics are beautiful. (See for yourself;

Sunlight bright upon my pillow
Lighter than an eiderdown
Will she let the weeping willow
Wind his branches round.

Julia dream, dreamboat queen, queen of all my dreams.

Every night I turn the light out
Waiting for the velvet bride
Will the scaly armadillo
Find me where I'm hiding.

Julia dream, dreamboat queen, queen of all my dreams.

Will the misty master break me
Will the key unlock my mind
Will the following footsteps catch me
Am I really dying?

Julia dream, dreamboat queen, queen of all my dreams...

) absolutely wonderwall they are.)

Well, thoughts?

None?

...okay *sniff*

The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not want,
He makes me down to lie,
Through pastures green he leadeth me the silent waters by,
With bright knives he releaseth my soul,
He maketh me to hang on hooks in high places,
He converteth me to lamb cutlets,
For lo, he hath great power and great hunger,
When cometh the day we lowly ones,
Through quiet reflection and great dedication,
Master the art of karate.

Gee, Eve, wait for people to get a decent wink before you give up on 'em!

I listened to it once. If it had 'Green Is The Colour' on it, I'd probably buy it -- I'd love to have that track without having to buy More, which I frankly find rather boring overall. But yeah, 'Julia Dream' is one of the most amazing pieces of gorgeousness ever penned by the Floyd.

I'm just not a compilation person.

You know that I care what happens to you,
And I know that you care for me too.
So I don't feel alone, or the weight of the stone...

Yeah, I've heard it. I think I posted about it in the Live, Outtakes, something, something, thread. (Sorry, don't remember the exact thread name.

)

It is great. Very mellow compared to the studio version. Not mellow in a bad way though.

Through pastures green he leadeth me the silent waters by,
With bright knives he releaseth my soul,
