Re: gigolo aunt

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?

Re: gigolo aunt

Erm..."props"?

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

I could also be wrong.

Re: gigolo aunt

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???

Re: gigolo aunt

props= proper respect

where it came from? who knows. I will admit to using it. I will also admit to being ashamed for using it.

Re: gigolo aunt

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.

Re: gigolo aunt

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.
