WIZARD OF OZ AND PINK FLOYD

Since this happened one week ago, I wanted to provide some context:

> * The lyric "balanced on the perfect wave" occurs just as Dorothy is
> balancing on the pigsty fence.
> * "...balanced on the biggest wave" as Dorothy balances on the
> fence, which leads into "On The Run" as she falls off the fence.
> * Chimes and bells sound just as Elvira Gulch appears on her
> bicycle.
> * During the "Time" guitar solo the fortune teller sign appears,
> reading "past, present & future."
> * The fortune teller tells Dorothy that she needs to go home as the
> lyrics play, "home, home again. I'd like to be there when I can".
> * "The Great Gig in the Sky" begins with the scene change to the
> tornado.
> * The tornado is seen in the background just as the words "and I'm
> not frightened of dying" is heard.
> * When the window sash knocks Dorothy out, the wailing vocal
> subsides.
> * "Great Gig in the Sky" is playing as the house is airborne.
> * The cash register in "Money" is heard just as the color of Oz is
> seen.
> * The ballerina Munchkins enter on the lyric "us..us..us".
> * One ballerina appears to lip sync the words "ordinary men"
> * The Lollypop Guild Munchkins enter on the lyric "me..me..me".
> * The Lollypop Guild's head motions synch with the music.
> * Dorothy turns to face forward on the lyric "forward he cried."
> * The Witch's appearance occurs on the lyric "black..black.."
> * On "blue..blue..blue.." we cut to Dorothy, who of course is
> wearing blue.
> * On the words "and who knows which is which and who is who", we see
> the Wicked Witch of the West looking at the dead feet of the
> Wicked Witch of the East.
> * For "up..up..up", the Witch is on top of a ramp; on "down..down..
> down..", she is walking down.
> * "And in the end", the dead Witch disappears.
> * "Out..out..out", Good Witch Glynda exits in a bubble.
> * The song "Brain Damage" is played as the scarecrow sings "If I
> Only Had a Brain."
> * The heartbeat heard at the end of the album coincides with Dorothy
> listening to the Tin Man's heart.

Echoes vs the Zapruder film

xp I’ve never got what’s supposed to happen when the album ends (and the movie has a lot of time left). Do you play it again? Switch to Wish You Were Here?

Interestingly, the next part of the move is they run through the "flowers" and then fall asleep. Seemed like a lost opportunity to me :wink:

I remember an old flatmate of mine tried this once. He also borrowed a Stockhausen album from me and I came home one night to find him watching "Metropolis" with the album playing and him insisting the two lined up perfectly. I can't remember what album it was though.

Oh man this piece is brilliant. Read of the day, gift link, go for it.

yeah, that rules <3
