Green is The Colour of Pink Floyd's Early Years



       On November 11, 2016, The Early Years 1965-1972,  Pink Floyd’s massive 27-disc box set that includes unreleased outtakes and demos, TV appearance, performance, interviews, three films, and 20 unreleased songs will be released. This is a news that will definitely send the fans jumping for joy—until we realize that it’s too pricey for its US$550 price tag.

       Anyway, the box set includes this previously unreleased video for Green Is The Colour, a songa love song to an island written for the film More. And what can I say? The video is as lovely and as sweet as the song. Seeing Pink Floyd (with Waters in it) performing live is always a delight. 





Green Is The Colour

Heavy hung the canopy of blue
Shade my eyes and I can see you
White is the light that shines through the dress that you wore

She lay in the shadow of the wave
Hazy were the visions of her playing
Sunlight on her eyes but moonshine made her cry every time

Green is the color of her kind
Quickness of the eye deceives the mind
Envy is the bond between the hopeful and the damned
