A loopy, calliope of a tune, Roger avails himself of recent travails. It’s still a bit morose, rog ain’t the happiest of guys. The “fantastic Drowse” “bores you to rages of tears”. See what I mean?
The good news is this song pretty much winds down the album and the playing and production elevates it above a retread of I’m in Love…which it sounds awfully like, to be honest.
Roger’s voice fits his song well, I guess, and this precursor to The Wall has a lot of the prog rock elements Floyd would employ.
I would say they should have covered it, but it’s not as good as anything Roger Waters could come up with.
