Pink Floyd - Shine On You Crazy Diamond, Parts 6-9 | (AI Music Video)

The closing track from Pink Floyd’s 9th studio album, Wish You Were Here and a continuation of the first track on the album. Much like the album’s opener, the lyrics continue to pay homage to the greatness and the downfall of former band member, Syd Barrett. Also much like the opening track, the majority of this song is purely instrumental. Lyrics don’t appear until a few minutes in and they don’t stick around for much longer than a minute. From that point onwards, it’s strictly an instrumental track. Also, there is a lyric in Pink Floyd’s song Brain Damage from DSOTM, which says “I’ll see you on the dark side of the moon”. Roger Waters has said that Brain Damage’s insanity themed lyrics are based on Syd, much like this song is. Perhaps the lyrics here are referencing what Waters previously said to Syd on Brain Damage, that he’d “be joining you there” (i.e. the Dark Side of the Moon), and “Pile on many more layers” could be metaphorically instructing Syd to wrap up warm/prepare properly as the actual dark side of the moon is very cold, significantly more so than the side we can see from Earth.
