ONE
OF THESE DAYS
Concept:
A song written for BBC Radio 2 English disk jockey Jimmy Young, who the
band disliked.
David Gilmour: For some reason, we decided to do a double track of the bass...The
first bass is me. A bar later, Roger joins in on the other side of the stereo
picture. We didn't have a spare set of strings for the spare bass guitar,
so the second bass is very dull sounding (laughs). We sent a roadie out
to buy some strings, but he wandered off to see his girlfriend instead.
David Gilmour: It just sounded very violent and, you know, we like a joke
as much as anyone else...It's an old thing for us, 'I'm Going To Cut You
Into Little Pieces' and 'Be Careful With That Axe, Eugene' - They're similair
sort of things, aren't they? Roger
Waters: I think that the simplest sound effects are often the best. For
example, just the sound of wind at the beginning of 'Cut You Into Little
Pieces' is bloody effective..
Comment: This song is also known as "One of These Days I'm Going to Cut
You Into Little Pieces.
