Maybe in art class I'll start working on pictures that depict song titles, and do one for Pink Floyd.

I like the 3rd one best but there all awesome.

Wow, listened to Any Colour You Like for the first time in a while today, and I forgot how awesome it was. I love the groove Wright and Gilmour are in. The guitar is soooooo awesome.

Ok, well here's my angry little story.

Last night I made a post around 10:38 I believe, and it turned out Riva had just made one as well, about the 5 things. I made my list, but I forgot the internet at my house auot-shutsdown at 10:40, so when I tried to post... nothing :angry:

I think I got them wrong anyway though, here were my guesses:


The DSotM prism

The heart represented the heartbeat in DSotM

Wish You Were Here

PF

And I thought the knight dude was accepting his death fro the angel, ala Great Gig.

Yep, made a post about that a few pages back :thumb:


EDIT: Oops, double-post.

Any Colour you Like is amazing. I need to listen to DSOTM again soon.

It's been ages since I've listened to DSOTM. I should put that on. I went through an Animals obsession, and since then I haven't listened to much Floyd except live stuff like DSOT, which I got recently.

[QUOTE=JonG]Time is the greatest Pink Floyd song, amazing piece of artwork, DSOTM is. Took 1 n a half years to make 9 songs. Money is the most known, but it is a very great song, The raggity sax and the guitar after makes me get pumped :P

As for Comfortably Numb, it's alright, I'm not the biggest fan, Wish You Were Here has great vocals and Run Like Hell is one of their best instrumentals. I also like Welcome To Machine.[/QUOTE]

I believe you mean on the run, not run like hell. Both very good songs, but I'd have to say my favorite album is not darkside like most people. My favorite floyd album is the wall, and my favorite song would be money (I'm a bass guitar and a sax player :-P ), or echoes. or breathe.....too many good songs

I have an obscure theory that Meddle is actually a concept album.

I'll share it with you sometime.

I know what you mean, Everybody says DSOTM is so great everyoine should own a copy, and I do belive DSOTM is a sick album, But I like The Wall so much more

Yes, please do.

I'd love to see it sometime.

DSOTM > The Wall. I just find DSOTM to be so much more accessible.

Meh, I think The Wall is more of an experience.

[QUOTE=Obi One Kenodi]Meh, I think The Wall is more of an experience.[/QUOTE]
I agree the Wall is more immense and powerful. However, in terms of pure music, I just think DSOTM is better.

[QUOTE=DeusExMachina]I agree the Wall is more immense and powerful. However, in terms of pure music, I just think DSOTM is better.[/QUOTE]

I see your point, I think I'll give DSOTM another listen. I've been listening to mostly Animals and Meddle, lately.

Dont mean to change the subject, but while i was loking for aussie floyd tix, I noticed some concerts had a ticket limit and some didnt. Do ticket limits apply strictly at venues or does it depend on the concert? Tix go on sale this saturday and I was planning on getting about 8+, but dont want to invite more people then can come...info?

I also think DSOTM is better then the wall...The Wall tends to weaken sometimes like with fragments to hold the storyline together. It cant keep my interest all the way through; i guess its the flow. But the concept of DSOTM also is much more comparible to anybodys perspective too.

[QUOTE=DeusExMachina]I agree the Wall is more immense and powerful. However, in terms of pure music, I just think DSOTM is better.[/QUOTE]

I'll probably have to agree with that. I like WYWH and Animals more than either though.

[QUOTE=DeusExMachina]I agree the Wall is more immense and powerful. However, in terms of pure music, I just think DSOTM is better.[/QUOTE]

I agree with you 100 percent. The Wall is great, but there are so many other Pink Floyd albums that should be getting just as much, or more, recognition.

Favorite album = Meddle

I'd really like to hear that theory, I can kind of see where you are coming from. Even though all the songs are completely different... they just feel... connected somehow. I'd really like to hear your opinion, maybe it will help me piece together whats in my mind.

BTW, I think DSotM > Wall. The Wall is a great album, but just too depressing for me. Great music can come from sadness, but really I'd rather be happy from listening to music. I'd definitely say the first half of Disc 2 is the best part by far though.

The thing I love about DSOTM is that it's so many great songs and moments in music melted into about 43 minutes. It isn't like The Wall, where you have to basically set aside an entire evening to listen to it. DSOTM can fit into any part of my day with ease. I listened to it every night before I went to bed for about two months straight a while back....now I only listen to it about 3 or 4 times a week.

the only floyd album i listen to regularly is animals...the other are too mellow and laid back for most of my day. hard to appreciate when theirs backround noise all over the place...animals is much more rockish, so its better for that.

I really only listen to dsotm and wywh when practicing with the guitar...the others i may just play when on the computer...usually random albums though. I The last time i listened to meddle was when i read that in the song One of these days, at the actual part they say one of these days im going to cut you into little pieces, hes also saying something else, but it was hard to hear without panning it. Im sure its already been discussed before though.

Oh man. I'm so high right now, and [I]Time[/I] is like totally orgasmic at the moment.

Nope, that's really interesting, think I'll research it.

EDIT:
[QUOTE=songfacts.com]The spoken words are different, depending on what speaker you are listening to. On one speaker: "One of these days, I'm going to cut you into little pieces." On the other speaker: "One of these days, I'm going to dance with the evil beast."

:amaze: *tries*

Oh, and apparently there are some audio samplings of the show "Dr. Who" in the midsection :confused:

EDIT #2: Oh. my. God. It's true! That is definitely "dance with the evil beast". Wow. When I heard it, time just sort of seemed to freeze for a second... and then that jam kicks in... Holy crap, that was one of the craziest feelings of my life...

Oh, and I guess all those freaky sounding like alien-ship noises during the "reverb" part were the samplings. Wow, I appreciate that song so much more now...

[QUOTE=Deathcrush]Oh man. I'm so high right now, and [I]Time[/I] is like totally orgasmic at the moment.[/QUOTE]


I felt left out when you left Soulseek to get baked...


Oh what I wouldn't do for a J right now...

Try listening to Any Colour You Like.

Wow this site (songfacts.com) is awesome. I'm looking at 'Echoes' right now, listen to some of this stuff.

[QUOTE]A year or two after the release of 2001: A Space Odyssey, Pink Floyd was working on Meddle. The ending part of the movie is 23 minutes long and the song echoes is also 23 minutes long. Play the song while watching the end sequence of the movie and enjoy.[/QUOTE]
Wow. I love this site.

Man. I need to listen to Meddle again now. I haven't listened to it in too long.

yea, songfacts was what i saw it on. Interesting stuff.

Probably one of the most awsome online sites ever.

dogs is the best song ever

You guys need to listen to One of Thse Days otu of one speaker too, make sure I'm not just crazy...

I'm having a lot of fun on this songfacts site... you guy seriously should check it out. One of the coolest things is that a lot of people that make comments are from NC too for some reason... kinda weird but cool :)

Whoa...I heard it too. I think it was just one of those things where "you'll hear what you want to hear". But I'll try it again.

Youve turned into an advertisement for that site!

Ive mentioned it sometime before, but nobody gave a **** (postcount --). Glad to know you guys are liking it though. Awsome for random knowledge for pwning your friends in music trivium.

On the bottome of the page to i believe you can go to an artistfacts site thats the same thing, but for bands/artists. Also some pretty cool stuff there.

I just listened to One of These Days, and it is indeed true. Crazy stuff.

I'm listening to AHM right now. I really want to convince my school to perform it.

:lol: I wonder if anyone gets that reference besides me...
Anyway, I'll check that artistfacts thing out...

NP: Echoes (currently the "whales in labor" part :thumb: )

That One of These Days thing is awesome.

Yesterday I started drawing a sketch of what Echoes looks like. It's gonna be hard to do, but I have an idea of how I'll go about drawing it. When I finish, I'll post it up here.

Does anyone know if the tribute band Think Floyd are any good? I'm going to see them in Hastings in a couple of weeks, just wanted to know if they are any good.

I want to start drawing a picture of Pink Floyd song titles, like the Grateful Dead posters. I have to think it out first though.

I tried it, and it actually works. Holy cr[i]a[/i]p, I can't believe nobody noticed.

Wow, that site really is awesome. I had know idea Hats off to (Roy) Harper was about the guest vocalist on Have a Cigar.

Edit: So, I was thinking, I read on the songfacts sight that Echoes is about recognizing humanity is someone, and responding with empathy, and I started thinking about the whole Meddle is a concept album thing. So One of These Days is about hating someone ("One of These Days, I'm going to cut you into little pieces") so we start with a character who hates people. I dunno how A Pillow of Winds fits in, but then theres Fearless (which I always thought was about fearlessly trying new things.) So here we see the character starting to change (climbing the steep hill.) Once more, I dunno how San Tropez or Seamus fit in, but then in Echoes we see the character completely changed, recognizing humanity. Just a thought.

I also have a theory about how Wish You Were Here is a story, not just a concept album about Syd.

I severely doubt that Meddle is a concept album. The first side is just a collection of songs.

WYWH and The Wall and Animals are definitely concepts though, and DSOTM is debatable.
