"Dark Globe" is a song by Syd Barrett for his first solo album The Madcap Laughs. It is notable for its eerie lyrics. Many also believe that this song is a point made to his former bandmates in Pink Floyd, saying that when he left Floyd, barely anybody noticed. This song has been covered by R.E.M. while touring to support Green, and on the British "collector's edition" of the single for "Everybody Hurts", and also as one of four cover versions within the rare "Automatic Box". The song has also been covered by Placebo. It has been played live by Gene Ween. The song was revived in live performance by Floyd guitarist David Gilmour, on some of his concerts in July and August 2006. A version was released on a live single entitled Arnold Layne later that year. 1970 songs Dark GlobeDark Globe
