Wow, I just listened to this song and really paid attention to the lyrics, and it's some of the most mystical and powerful shit ever. Anyone else find this? You can be transported to another world with this song.

Set The Controls is great tune. I remember one night me and a friend were driving through the mountains, going up to Yosemite. We were totally baked and pulled off the road at this scenic overlook place. It was during on of the Leonid meteor showers and there was a shooting star every minute or two. The two of us just sat there in the car, staring out at the mountains, watching the stars, and listening to Set the Controls. When it was all over he turns to me with his mouth hanging open and says, with his thick southern accent "Damn man, that was some fucking trippy music". We then proceeded to smoke another bowl and listen again :stoned:

I've seen Roger Waters perform it live twice but it didn't compare to the original Floyd versions.I think the best version is the live one on Umma Gumma. Probably my fav Floyd album

I'm watching the video on you tube. Trippy.
