Diamonds are forever

i was on my way to bed, trying to make a early night for once, and i was just gonna check something on a forum quick and i saw a topic of one thread:

"Syd Barret dead"

i couldn´t believe my eyes, was he really gone? "no, that can´t be true" i thought, and i followed the link and read...i just couldn´t believe it, Syd Barret is gone. i have been a fan of Pink Floyd´s music for a couple of years now and i have listened to Syd Barrett´s solo albums so this felt kinda hard. to loose someone that has inspired so many to do music and other. with Syd Barretts passing away it felt harder than when Kurt Cobain passed away. don´t get me wrong here, i miss Nirvana and i think it´s very sad that we lost Kurt Cobain but i feel that Pink Floyd´s music means more to me than Nirvana´s.
