I have been trying to figure this one out for years. All I can get is the man saying "Yes...yes, I'm sure of it." It seems to be a snippet of an old British radio drama...
Romana may know; she seems to be a veritable cornucopia of music knowledge.

Actually, I haven't a clue, and I've even surfed around a bit and can't find any references. (I did find this semi-psychotic site which claims, in the tradition of syncing Dark Side of the Moon with The Wizard of Oz, that a number of other Floyd albums lend themselves to syncing with other movies, including Wish You Were Here with It's A Wonderful Life.)
I also noted that this same tape of dialogue is used at the beginning of a live version of Wish You Were Here that I picked up on Napster, (origin unknown) and parts of it are just slightly more discernable, but not enough to tell what the hell it is. |

Yes! I found the syncronization of Dark Side of the Moon with The Wizard of Oz on Morpheus not too long ago. I was 56K at the time too! It was worth it...!
Myself and a pal tried setting it up ourselves one time, but we just didn't have it syncronized correctly. I found it under this name> Pink_Floyd_Sychronised_Wizard_of_Oz_.mpg ...but you probably need only type in Oz. Whoever made this did it absolutely right. It's one of the most mystical experiences. Especially the tornado sequence of course. Like trippin' without taking drugs...lol ...however, I wouldn't argue with a little marijuana right beforehand. Oz is my fav movie & I'm glad I found that... real fun. I don't know the words referred to in Shani's post... but you've certainly got this going through my head now> Male: He certainly was lookin' for a fight. (or something like that) Female: ...yeah... he was just crusin' for a brusin' |

Hooray for primitive technology.
I am not frightened of dying, any time will do. I don't mind. Why should I be frightened of dying? There's no reason for it. You've got to go sometime.

When spoken with a strong Indian accent.. Eric could have well been pronounced "D'erick" by that woman. (try it by talking Indian ) It would also make sense that he overheard his parents talking about him (it featured in The Wall film) and put things relevant to him in between songs on his albums.. he was right into concepts and stories. |
