I first of all wanted to give props to a song that i think is a little under rated. In my opinion, Gigolo Aunt is probobly Syd's best solo song, and i rarely hear anyone say anything about it. What are your educated opinions about this song? One other question, what the hell is it about? any opinions or ideas?

Erm..."props"?

"Gigolo Aunt" is...um...good and it seems to be about a day out at the seaside.

I could also be wrong.

I think "props" means credit.

I had the feeling it was about someone who dumped his girlfriend and now he's going on about how he saw through her.

But who knows???

c'mon bride of a bull, you're from los angeles, i'm sure you heard a few people saying it there. Didn't you know, it's cool to use improper english these days.

Props is a relatively new term and Byron is a long time resident of England (they have their own slang) so I am sure he has not heard anyone use it.
