What do you think this passage means? Is It in connection with CWTAE? Which is your opinion?

I don't know, but I heard things about Live in Pompeii that it sounds like he's saying something different? I'll have to watch it.
but CWTAE?

Re: One Of These Days I'm Going To Cut You Into Little Pieces

I've heard a story saying that Mr. Waters directed that at some obnoxious DJ who trashed PF on the air, or something like that. But I cannot remember exactly.

Re: One Of These Days I'm Going To Cut You Into Little Pieces

i have a live version of this song from a BBC session and the dj says it is described by roger "as a poignant appraisal of the contemporary social situation" make what you will of that.

Re: One Of These Days I'm Going To Cut You Into Little Pieces

Strange, but somehow One Of These Days... always had some ...mmm...emotional connection to CWTAE for me. Prolly it's all about the title, because musically there is not a lot of similarity.
But strange to see that someone thinks alike.

Re: One Of These Days I'm Going To Cut You Into Little Pieces

According to this month's Mojo mag, when the song was recorded, nothing was going right in the studio, and the passage is alluding to the frustration of that day.

Taking or leaving,

Mark

I believe it was said by Radio1 DJ John Peel, he was a big fan of Floyd and once described a performance, that included AHM, as being almost akin to a religious experience!

However on this occaision he was taking the piss as Fixxy says.

True. The DJ was Jimmy Young of BBC. I have a couple of early alternate studio versions of the song where you can actually hear at the beginning a sort of "medley" of this Jimmy Young speech ant then the song starts with Nick's voice "one of these days..."

Re: One Of These Days I'm Going To Cut You Into Little Pieces

Hmmm...that's funny, because I have a Live version of Raving and Drooling (Pink Floyd - Black Holes in the Sky (disc 1) - Raving and Drooling.mp3 is the filename) with an interminably long monologue of Jimmy Young. I suspect it was a recording of the DJ rather than him appearing Live as well. Funny.

I think there might be a connection with Careful With That Axe Eugene. I really don't know though.
