Top 3 Pink Floyd songs

[Ellestin]

Yes, a vast subject...

1. Comfortably Numb
I think I already put this among my 3 best songs ever
2. Keep Talking
kinda weird I know, but I dig the "broken mechanics" pace and the lyrics just keep talking to me...
3. Atom Heart Mother
obvious choice, this is so mindblowingly epic.

Actually I could easily have picked about 30 other songs for this podium. Such a useless thread again...

 

[Nico]

All's I need is Shine On You Crazy Diamond parts 1 - 2859

 

[Dick Sirloin]

1. Fearless
2. Comfortably Numb
3. Careful With That Axe Eugene

 

[Crimson Velvet]

Pink Floyd? Isn't that some pop-band?

 

[Krilons Resa]

IMPOSSIBLE thread!!!

 

[NAD]

yeah this is tough. ummmm, Mother is up there. so is Echoes. Dogs. Interstellar Fucking Overdrive. Eclipse. Have a Cigar. this could go on for awhile.

but then again, how can i possibly enjoy pink floyd songs not in the context of the entire album? i mean yeah Eclipse rules, but that's partially due to closing out Dark Side of the Moon in an absolutely perfect way. and yeah Dogs is fucking ace, but is so much better when listened to with the entire Animals album, especially with the line "have you heard the news? the dogs are dead..." like 20 minutes later. oh man i'm getting chills just thinking about that.

too hard to pick.

IMPOSSIBLE thread!!!

i think i'm the only RCer who doesn't really dig floyd that much. i mean it's cool and all, and i respect it blah blah blah, it's just never really marinated my tri-tip

 

[Demilich]

1. Comfortably Numb (Probably semi-due to nostalgia 'cause it's the first one I heard)

2. Goodbye Blue Sky

3. uh, like.. Wish You Were Here or something from that one...




this WAS hard! i think my choices would change every day

 

[KILL TULLY]

Exactly. Notice how I didn't reply.

Hahaha, same here man. I started typing. "Ok, this list is excluding, because they auto-win, Iron Maiden, Venom...Motorhead...Angel Witch...Saxon....Diamond Head..." then i just pressed "back" because it was already a failure, haha.

IMPOSSIBLE thread!!!

Exactly. But I'll try anyway:

Hey You
hey you! out there in the cold
getting lonely, getting old, can you feel me
hey you! standing in the aisles
with itchy feet and fading smiles, can you feel me
hey you! don't help them bury the light
don't give in without a fight

Breathe
for long you live and high you fly
but only if you ride the tide
and balanced on the biggest wave
you race towards an early grave

High Hopes
encumbered forever by desire and ambition
there's a hunger still unsatisfied
our weary eyes still stray to the horizon
though down this road we've been so many times

 

[Demonspell]

I thought of just listing all three from Animals but that would have been a means of avoiding the question...

 

[Sadguru]

mission impossible

Anyway:

- Comfortably Numb
- High Hopes
- Wish You Were Here
