Apparently if you start Pink Floyd's Darkside of the Moon at the Exact moment the MGM Lion roars at the start of the Wizard of Oz, the album matches up on many levels to whats happening on screen.
some of the most noticeable connections are listed here (http://members.cox.net/stegokitty/dsotr_pages/printable.htm)
and those kind people at google video have saved us the bother of trying to get the cd to start on the thrid roar of the MGM lion here (http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=7667000257414927973)
wonder what people think, intent? Coincidence? or just plain ridiculous?.I'll say it works on some levels ie. Certain lines from songs seem to reference whats on screen and also the ambiance/mood changes seem to fit also in the munchkin dance scene they do seem to be in rhythm with the music. I leave it up to you guy's to decide for yourselves

Not this again. Its bogus. Someone came up with that when they were stoned. Other people tried it when they were stoned and realised the person who came up with it was more stoned than them.

Its nearly as mad a theory but not nearly as good as...
Paul is Dead! (http://www.paulisdeadhoax.com/)
though it would explain why he ditched Jane Asher for Linda. :D

Oh my God, that's amazing.
People are idiots.
Reading through it, I thought they would have concocted some strange coincidences together that actually made it sound feasible.
I'd appreciate that but they haven't.

Oh dear.

No. This isn't true. Not at all. The surviving Floyd's have said so, categorically. It's a load of auld shyte.

Someone, as an experiment, (as they were also stoned, obviously) once played it in sync with "It's a wonderful Life" and "The green Berets" and also found (if they closed their eyes tight enough) several 'similarities'.

Co-inky dinks.

Thats all.

Also if you play Meddle in Sync with the pilot of The Roaring Twenties...

Well its an improvement on TRT.
