Pink Floyd Trivia Question Two things just happened to come together this weekend and I thought "holy shit, that's were that came from" Back in 1970, Pink Floyd did a soundtrack to a film called Zabriskie Point. One of the songs on that soundtrack is called "Come in number 51, your time is up" A weird name for a weird song. Question is, where did they get that name?? Rating: 5

It is unhealthy how long I have been trying to draw the correlation between the song name and some 60s rock group. I hope you have the correct answer and not just some stoner connection! (Dude, Jerry like died at age 51, so the song is about his death!) I'm just messing with ya.

Ok, in the first Beatles movie, A Hard Days Night, there is this kind of melancholy scene where Ringo is walking along a river. There are some boats in the river and for no apparent reason he turns to them and shouts "come in number 51, your time is up"

I had gotten really high last Saturday and was watching that movie. When he said that I knew I had heard that somewhere else before. I hadn't listend to it for at least a year but, by pure coincidence, on Sunday morning I pulled out the Pink Floyd Relics cd. I looked at the songs and the very last one was "Come in number 51, your time is up" Instantly the light bulb went off over my head.
