Song Name: Summer '68 Artist: Pink Floyd Album: Atom Heart Mother Run Time: 5:29 Year: 1970 Track Number: 3 Sung By: Richard Wright Written By: Richard Wright Info:
* About a one night stand, likely with a groupie, and the return to habitual life. The soft piano intro contrasts with the rich, revenge-style Morricone trumpet solo breaks in the middle and end of the song.
* The song also hints at the tedium of touring and a desire to escape from it all: 'My friends are lying in the sun, I wish that I was there...'
* The song can also be interpreted as the metaphorical thoughts of someone returning from a magic mushroom trip, which typically last about 6 hours. Hence the lyrics, "We met just six hours ago..." and the continuing sensations and disillusionment with what's happening.
