I really like the connection Publius made with Dawn of the Dead (minor correction- Goblin composed the music). I think the song is about experimentation. Some people may think this is about experimenting with drugs, but I think it is about experimenting with technology. Some of the devices used on DSOTM were never heard before, and ACYL is a great example of this.

actually, i think this song is about drugs. no joke. dark side of the moon is about all the different things in life that can drive you crazy (money, time, war, etc.) and drugs can do that as well. i dont think its a coincidence that the next song is titled brain damage.

This song is a great experience on acid. I saw vibrant colors-the song, itself, just sort of "sounds" colorful (but I do have mild synesthesia)-but it's still a good trip song, as is the whole album. The song is about colors-that's all. It's supposed to make you think colors and trippy shit.

if you think the album, or this song in particular was made to make people's "trips" better, you should try listening to the lyrics, if you can get your head around all the big words. This whole album is obviousley a hell of a lot better than a little flashing-colored trip.

The band\'s roadie, Chris Adams, used to use the phrase taken from the Ford Motor Company: You can have it in any color you want as long as it is black! Chris used to let the band members know that they had to make do with what they have when he couldn\'t or he didn\'t want to do what they asked of him. Chris\' response was: You can have it in any colour you like. The boys added it to Dark Side when it was under production, because they thought the album should have a track reminiscent of one of their jam sessions.

If you want to really experience this song, play it at maximum volume on a really good stereo system. Or get it on SACD and play it on a 700 watt system. you will probablly experience mind alterations without drugs.

Tenuous connection here but; this sounds a lot like the incidental music from Dawn Of The Dead by Dario Argento. Dawn Of The Dead is a film about consumerism and humans portrayed as zombies who just want to shop, shop, shop. And here, the title of this song 'Any colour you like' is a consumerist reference, about availability; what you can buy and in what colour.

I'd imagine this song would be awesome to listen to while under the influence of alcohol or other mind-altering substance. Sweet stuff.

I agree with chiron090. This song is about how you have an illusion of several options though your choice has already been made. The variation in the guitar says it all. Easily one of the most amazing instrumentals of all time!
