My fave Floyd songs have got to be:

1. Money ( I know it's kind of overrated but I still love it.)
2. Another Brick in the Wall
3. Time
4. Echoes
5. Comfortably Numb

Pink Floyd rocks

i love every album by Pink Floyd except for Piper At the Gates of Dawn, the real pink floyd sound didnt emerge till A Saucerful of Secrets came out IMO. Dont get me wrong PATGD is a well created album but it was too reminiscent of the beatles.

i think Saucerful gave them David Gilmour so i think that is what completed the sound they needed to be great, saddly i think the departure of syd was what was needed for them.

My favorite songs are:
1. set the controls for the heart of the sun - a saucerful of secrets
2. remember a day - relics
3. see emily play - relics
4. keep talking - the devision bell
5. the fletcher memorial home - the final cut
6. brain damage - dark side of the moon
7. sorrow - momentary laps of reason
8. in the flesh - the wall
9. shine on you crazy diamond - wish you were here
10. several species of small furry animals gathered together in a cave and groovin with a pict. - works (this is a collection of their early works, but this first song, is just animal noises all jumbled up and mixed to sound like percussion instruments, its rather uh strange!)

[QUOTE=DeusExMachina]Is Wright's solo stuff good? I really liked the song on the DVD.[/QUOTE]


Awesome. My favourite is a song called Mediterrainen C, which is an instrumental. Really haunting, yet melodic. Reminds me very much of his work with Floyd.

Awesome. Can you send me some of that stuff some time?

[QUOTE=thickasabrick]....your name is the mighty zep...why on earth would you make fun of someone for saying "led zeppelin rox?"

let people vote what they think, not what you want them to think.[/QUOTE]


Dude, Led Zeppelin does rock, and im not trying to bash on them or nothing like that...but you cant deny all these n00bs do say stuff like that all the time. I would know, because before i came to these forums i was one of them. I just figured that you know...were in the Pink Floyd Thread...maybe some people here would want to vote for Floyd, but i guess i was wrong. I guess it doesnt really matter anymore because their getting crush by about 100 votes, so whatever. The better band won.

Any way, im still yet to get Ummagumma, since its pretty hard to come by here. That was their 2nd or 3rd album right? i believe it came out in 69, but im not sure. I really havent heard much of Barrets material, but i wont critisize it or praise it until i have a final opinion.

95% of you guys dont know anything about Pink Floyd. All you mention is things off of The Wall or Darkside. That is only 15% of their career. Did you even know they had about 6 albums before darkside, and only the first had Syd (piper at the gates of dawn). They also had 3 albums after The Wall. In my opinion Darkside was alright and The Wall was nothing compared to other albums such as 'Meddle' with the epic song 'Echoes' at the end of the album. Another good album is Atom Heart Mother which is more trippy then darkside. The title track 'Atom Heart Mother' is comparable to the song 'Echoes'. By the way, i will say you arent a true Pink Floyd fan until youve seen the 1972 Live in Pompeii movie. Its the best Pink Floyd piece ive experienced.

Some other mentionable Pink Floyd songs:

Childhood's End (Obscured By Clouds)
A Saucerful Of Secrets (A Saucerful Of Secrets)
Fearless (Meddle)
Interstellar Overdrive (Piper At The Gates Of Dawn)

ummagumma is the ****

excuse me? dont say 95% of us don't know anything about pink floyd, you've been here for how long? maybe it appears that we only talk about DSOTM because we are currently having a DISCUSSION on it, so don't just jump in on us.

and Meddle is an amazing album, i really like One of These Days, and of course Echoes is my favourite.

last night i was listening to Interstellar Overdrive (while high) and for the first time i realized what genius that track is. i used to think it was just a bunch of noise, but finally i noticed just how much work and effort they put into it. simple amazing.

fair enough.

i really like Ummagumma. ya it came out in 69, its like half a live album half a studio album. i warn you, barret doesn't add a whole lot to this album (im sorry if that offends someone). but its still great.

and by the way...how do you guys pronounce ummagumma? i say it like um, but some people say oom.

You think your so smart because you are so different not liking the Wall and Darkside. Bravo! Seriously, you need to learn to stfu. If you like other work, thats good for you but we don't all share the same tastes. If you ask me, the Wall is far superior to Meddle, not because it's more popular, but because it has countless great songs (Mother, Nobody Home, Vera, One Of My Turns, Don't Leave Me Now, Waiting For The Worms, Outside The Wall, Goodbye Cruel World and the list goes on).

And if you did know something about Pink Floyd or just something about basic mathematics, you would know that The Wall + Darkside Of The Moon span much less than 15% of Pink Floyd's carreer, jackass.

btw: even gilmour called atom heart mother ****.

Yeah, I love Ummagumma, as I have said before. However I only have the tape version, which sucks, because the quality is running low. And I pronounce it um-ah-gum-ah. But then again, I'm aussie, so it might be different for other accents. :p

Please don't be an elitist. Sure some of these people might not know much about Pink Floyd. Sure some of them like DSOTM more than many of their other albums. But you know what?

At least they are enjoying discussing Pink Floyd, which you haven't done at all in this thread, and yet have the teremity to put others done.

What bullsh[font=]i[/font]t is this, that a true Floyd fan has to qualify by seeing a certain DVD. What if I said that a true Floyd fan has to own More: The soundtrack to the movie, on it's original tape? Everyone would call me a dickhead, which would be justified. If you are going to be a stupid elitist and try to make yourself feel like you know more about Floyd then any of us, you are wrong. There are at least three people on the forums who I know for certain are the biggest Floyd fans on MX.

just so you know, jugband blues on a saucerful of secrets was also syd barrett. It was during the production of that album that he was ousted.

Oh snap. N00b elitist :rolleyes:

You are an idiot. I have all of Floyd's albums, you know what, I still love the wall. I also like The Division Bell. There are tons of people here that know what they are talking about, far more than 5%. Who are you to judge, you joined within the last few days. Good qualification for a "true Pink Floyd fan" btw, seeing a movie makes you a true fan, and anyone who hasn't seen it isn't afan :rolleyes: Moron. Also, I have all of the songs mentioned above on my computer. I don't like them as much as oher stuff. The sound I like by Pink Floyd was not as defined on OBC or PATGOD. So I am less of a fan for liking their later stuff? No. Oh yeah, as far as released stuff goes, The Wall and DSoTM is far less than 15% of their releases, I can tell you are good at math. FYI, they had [b]7[/b], not 6 albums before DSoTM. PATGOD, SoS, More, Ummagumma, AHM, Meddle, and OBC. I have the LED version of PULSE, do you? Probably not, since it was a limited edition release when the album came out. Doesn't that make me elite :rolleyes:

I really love an elitist n00b who doesn't even have his facts straight :thumb:

OMG Im awsome becuz ive seen a movie and i have their early cds. wowzers, everyone else here sux.

People are so smart, it amazes me.

Aside from the spam, do some people own Obscured By Clouds? (No, I'm not trying to act like I'm a bigger fan than everyone here, because I'm not) I just find it very good, yet I never hear discussion about it.

And One of These Days is one of the coolest album-openers ever.

I do have Obscured By Clouds, but it's on tape. And One Of These Days live on Delicate Sound Of Thunder is fantastic.

first of all you cant even really consider The Wall a 100% Pink Floyd album, so your basically saying you like roger waters the best.

I do have OBC, not a bad album, but not my favorite. One of these days is pretty cool, but so is Speak to me...kinda like a synopsis of the whole album, plus the heartbeat thing is cool.

[QUOTE=MistyMountainHop]first of all you cant even really consider The Wall a 100% Pink Floyd album, so your basically saying you like roger waters the best.[/QUOTE]

What's wrong with Roger Waters? Brilliant musician and songwriter if you ask me. His only problem was that his ego got in the way at around this time. (And a bit on Animals, as well.) He had a good run while it lasted though.

so if i sat here and had the most posts on a website, it would somehow make me a big pink floyd fan? ive spent multiple hours with each one of their albums and i doubt youve listened to half of them all the way through.

Please stop flaming in my thread. Take it elsewhere if you wanna get owned, but don't try to bs in a thread full of fans.

Why do people who like Pink Floyd get pissed off at other people who like Pink Floyd? We all like Pink Floyd, that's why were here. If you know more than most about them, good for you. However the majority of people just like the music and come in here to add their thoughts about it every now and then. So let them enjoy Darkside and The Wall, while you feel smug about yourself because you're lisening to Atom Heart Mother.

Haha, of course not, but neither does seeing a certain concert. By the way, I congratulate you for another dumb post. Why would I own albums and not listen to half of them all the way through? Maybe we have :eek: different musical tastes! What a concept, you mean not everyone agrees on what is good? Oh my. I didn't claim to be a bigger fan because I have a higher post count, I was commenting on your newbness because most people who have been here awhile have learned not to try and be elitist assho[i]l[/i]es :thumb: I like how you didn't even bother to address the fact that you were wrong about their album count as well. I proved you wrong, and you didn't even acknowledge that. By being wrong I therefore proved you not to be as hot as you thought, you don't know every thing you think you do. Moreover, My play count in itunes for every Pink Floyd song ranges from 5 to 20 :thumb: My parents also raised me on it, so I can almost guarantee I have heard them more than you, since I have been listening to them for 18 years now :)

w3rd, lunch.

*high-fives*

Now, what do you reckon the best song off of Obscured By Clouds is?

i just get mad becuase lots of people (and you know this) dont know anything beyond Wish You Were Here, Darkside, and The Wall. pink floyd just has way more music then that. some people try to seem hardcore when they arent. i wasnt directing it towards any specific person, but ive read some posts through out the thread and ive seen some pretty halarious replies.

i didnt admit to my album count because i purposely didnt count ummagumma. and anyways, i thought getting the album count wrong by one was a pretty little thing to argue over.

Why not count Ummagumma?
