“Anyone who cares about media – indeed, anyone who cares about our society and where it’s going – must read this book” – Robert Glaser, CEO, RealNetworks. “Anderson’s insights … continue to influence Google’s strategic thinking in a profound way.” – Eric Schmidt, CEO, Google. These are just two of the bragging rights printed in the back of the book. In my opinion – dare I add it in the same paragraph as the prior two – his insights are, well, insightful indeed.

“If” you hear our “Sorrow” it is because you chose “A Great Day for Freedom” to start “Learning to Fly” and perform “The Great Gig in the Sky” in “Any Colour You Like”. “One of These Days” we’ll “Have a Cigar” and “Keep Talking” for a long “Time” until we are “Lost for Words” and not “Obscured by Clouds”. You are “One of the Few” for which we had “High Hopes”. For now “The Show Must Go On” “Outside The Wall”. “Shine on you Crazy Diamond”. I’ll see you in “The Final Cut” for “The Happiest Days of Our Lives”.

“Did, did, did, did you see the frightened ones?
Did, did, did, did you hear the falling bombs?
Did, did, did, did you ever wonder why we had to run for shelter when the
promise of a brave new world unfurled beneath a clear blue sky?

Did, did, did, did you see the frightened ones?
Did, did, did, did you hear the falling bombs?
The flames are all gone, but the pain lingers on.

Goodbye, blue sky
Goodbye, blue sky.
Goodbye.
Goodbye.
Goodbye.”

You will be missed.
