TottsI played Dark Side of the Moon the other Day. I had not heard it for years.
It may be sacrilege, but I still don't like it. Animals was their best work.
In fact, I'd go so far as saying it's their only album worth listening to
Fragarach@Fragarach what do you think it means xxx
@Geri
In the days before mechanisation, those estates that had lawns employed men to cut the grass with scythes.
They did this in small teams, line abreast and fairly close, so you could do it all in one pass. Accidents were a regular occurrence, hence "Me, I'm just a lawnmower. You can tell me by the way I walk."
Not sure why the Floyd dropped it in there, possibly to drive people like me mad trying to work out a rationale.
I found this out around the time I found out why Haha Road in Woolwich was so named. (There's still a haha running alongside the road BTW).

@Fragarach it's Genesis not Flloyd xx
@Fragarach I like the idea
That the lawnmower is not the device, more the gardener who trims the grass with the device
