    13 years ago, i was a very lonely boy of 16 years old, i had no many friends and a lot of my days i spend in loneliness. But a god day, a boy that i knew from high school, invites me to his house. When i arrive his house, other boys was there, watching this DVD and this song was the most memorable thing of that DVD. I had no friends, but that kids, from that day to today, are still my best friends.

      If you put aside all the noise effects and other show-offs, this music is colorless, boring, empty and forced. You too, knowing the basics of music theory and having some studio capabilities, can come up with something similar. Pink Floyd try, but can do little.

      My dad is 74 aswell and is more into Waylon Jennings, Merle Haggard and George jones, it’s wierd how 2 ppl both born in 52’ can have such different music tastes, but to me all music is magic, it depends on the mood and situation. I really like country music ( NOT THE NEW GERNE) when drinking etc and Pink Floyd like this song when I’m all alone in my man-cave, no lights on just letting my mind flow to exotic destinations (no I never use drugs). Even classical music is a breeze when trying to solve a code bug

      Yes Oh Yes. Among so many other qualities, this one seems to be a bit under the radar. You just don't realize it until you realize it. They have managed this throughout their career.
      The last thing I want to do is slagging of other bands that used to make 20 minute long songs, but it's an art in itself and almost no-one pulls it off quite like PF.
      It's not restricted to longer songs of course, their pacing is just as exquisite in a 1 minute song. It all flows so naturally, nothing forced, exactly like it should be. (which is probably why it takes a while to realize they have that quality).

      @@suezuccati304 That's total BS. You obviously know nothing about Pink Floyd. This was recorded 4 years after Syd's departure. They were such a successful band, that some business man had the good sense to invest a bunch of money to send them, their crew, and all of their equipment to Pompeii to record them without an audience. David played with Syd long before there was a Pink Floyd, or even The Tea Set. He was the perfect replacement. Syd wrote some great song, he was innovative, and definitely deserves a lot of credit. But he also wrote some quirky pop songs, that the rest of the band moved away from. They were successful without Syd, while his own solo career took a dive. I don't like saying negatives about him, but to say that the band suffered without him, is pure ridiculousness. And let's not forget, David played on half of their 2nd album, so giving Syd all the credit for their success, just doesn't make sense.

      @@jagdeepkaul1261 Rick had basically stopped contributing by the time they made the Wall. He had a heavy coke habit, was distraught over the end of his marital relationship and was tired of dealing with Roger's ego. Rick later said that Roger was extremely difficult to work with. Anyway, Roger told him to start contributing more or he was out. Well, Roger kicked him out. Interestingly, Rick was the only one to make a substantial amount of money from the Wall because he was kept on in a professional capacity for the live performances of The Wall. So that was the last Floyd album Rick worked on until David hired him back a few years later, after Roger was gone and the court battle for the right to retain the name of Pink Floyd was over.
