'Brain Damage' and 'Eclipse' are from Pink Floyd's 1973 album, 'The Dark Side Of The Moon'. The Wizard of Oz was released in 1939. In this video, when things start out, the Scarecrow is near the edge of the field he's supposed to be watching over (0:18), instead of somewhere out deeper in the field, suggesting that he has intentionally been placed here (near a crossroads) so that Dorothy will 'happen' to run into him. This in turn suggests that there's some kind of deception (of Dorothy) going on, as if she's being 'set up' in some way. The verse heard twice at the beginning of 'Brain Damage's vocals is, "The lunatic is on the grass." This verse suggests that Dorothy is a lunatic, with "on the grass" indicating that at some point while near the field, she becomes high due to the effect of breathing in airborne pollen from the tall grass growing there. A close-up of Dorothy is shown at 00:23.
