Pink Floyd
A tribute to Pink Floyd is long due.
My favourite band which I regard as one of the greatest band ever. Followers of ‘Led Zeppelin’ , ‘The Doors’ , ‘The Who’ , ‘Beatles’ might not agree with this though. Well , what can I say to that! … “To each, its own”
And now to the question , ‘what makes them that special?’. To be candid , there is no specific answer for that. There are so many aspects to music which one can identify to. It would be unfair to put down one or two of those aspects here based on my personal biases. Although I am certain about one thing , you would be able to relate yourself at some level no matter what aspect of music you are attached to.
And that relation Pink Floyd brings to/in/around you is what makes them God of all bands.
Of Mirrors and Hopes …
Looking in the mirror, an alien stared back at him.
He Smiled.
He had seen it happening in the movies, in the countless horror and sci-fi films seen over the years. Yet this was not supernatural. Nor did he consider it to be.
His look went to the tree visible from the window in his room, where a tiny golden bird chirped as it spread its wings, perhaps ready to fly in search for food. The bright sunshine reflecting off the bird made it appear as a almost divine creature .. as a phoenix that had just risen up from its ashes. And then in a swift motion, the bird flapped its wings and flew away.
He smiled again. And this time, it was for a different reason.
