The story behind the song

This song captures the feeling of being on Ibiza, the setting of the film More, for which it was written. It evokes a sense of place and atmosphere, with a tin whistle adding to its distinctive sound. Appearing on Pink Floyd's 1969 album More, the song was a regular part of the band's live shows. It plays like a gentle, evocative journey into a specific landscape.
