about
An affectionate nod to the late Syd Barrett. I used to wonder what Syd might have been thinking when he'd see the relentlessly obsessed fans hiding behind his garden wall, hoping for a glimpse of their reclusive hero. One day, I was talking about this with a friend, and off the top of my head began singing in my best faux-Syd voice-- "I made my mind up and it became clear, I put the walls up so no-one comes near, I rode my Bike straight off the rails, Into the drink there's no way to fail..." It was all a bit of a joke really, but I began to add more and more silly words to it here and there; mixing in a couple of Syd song titles for good measure, until a song began to take shape. To my surprise I began to take a real liking to it, dropped the over-the-top Syd Barrett vocal inflections, and set about recording it for the album. I still have a soft spot for this song that came out of nowhere.

Steve Robinson recommends:
-
Hypnotic and heartfelt; I find myself frozen and staring off when I listen to it. I'm usually thinking, "This is how it's done". Effortless-sounding in a Weepies/Innocence Mission sort of way.
