You can get synchronised versions off of Kazaa, apparently. And yes, I have seen a short clip of it during the munchkin scene, and it is trippy as hell.

Gilmour is one of my favourite guitarists ever. I'm planning on doing The Wall (movie) for a related text in my english class. I can pretty much guarantee I'm the first one to do it.

Yeah for all who haven't heard it, listen to Comfortably Numb on PULSE. Beats the pants off all other versions. I heard the PULSE DVD is coming out finally in December in Aus.

when people say 'start the CD' do they mean press play or pause it at the beginning of Speak to me/Breathe and then press play. and the start, middle, or end of the roar?

Start of the CD is at the start of the third roar.

Put the CD in, and press play at the second roar, so that the third roar will match the beginning of Speak To Me

I was in the Hard Rock cafe in Dublin a couple of weeks ago and Learning to Fly came on. We were finished eating so they told us to leave but i asked if we could stay to listen to the song. They said no so i started arguing and they got a bit angry and kicked me out. What a bunch of wan[B]k[/B]ers. They don't know the meaning of Hard Rocking.

I think alot about all the different ways the "wall" is conceptualized, how many different contexts it is used in. What a remarkable piece. I have never heard a more imaginitive or creative album. I dont think I will in this lifetime.

High hopes kicks much ***

The Wall is an array of different themes and stories interwound into one. It seems like it would never work, sounds too complicated but it fits together beautifully. In my eyes it is one of the greatest piece of art ever created. If one was to study the wall it could take many years to analyse every aspect of the piece. In a hundred years time professors of rock will be pouring over the wall and other floyd to find the meanings of it hidden deep beneath.

It is the only album I can think of worthy of a whole book of analysis. I've pondered the idea myself lol

i get all of The Wall except Run like Hell and Waiting for the Worms

[QUOTE=HeavyRiva]I am getting The Wall DVD for my 18th, hopefully!! Only a week and a bit and I will be able to see what my friend said was the trippiest video of his lifetime.[/QUOTE]
I just bought it yesterday....It is really trippy, yet the it has a lot of meaning. The tits ain't bad either.

The Wall is. Pretty much the only explanation i've come come up over the last hour to explain fully.

i am a huge pink floyd fan, and The Wall and DSOTM are great, and though it doesnt have very many songs, Wish You Were Here(not just the song, the entire album) was great, the song WYWH is great, along with Welcome to the machine, Have a cigar, and i have never met anyone that didnt like Shine On You Crazy Diamond(dedicated to their first main songwriter, syd barret, who suffered from mental complications after their first album)

overall, Money is great for his awesome tenor sax parts by Dick Parry(i play tenor sax so its a weakness of mine), and WYWH is one of my fav songs ever, but the most haunting lyrics come from "Speak To Me/Breathe"

for long you'll live and high you'll fly, for smiles you'll give and tear's you'll cry, for all you touch and all you see is all your life will ever be - Speak To Me/Breathe, Dark Side Of The Moon Album

I just recently started to listen to them and think they're amazing. I have DSOTM and I'm just wondering what CD I should get next. Any suggestions?

I have WYWH, DSOTM, animals, The Wall and the final cut. So uhh yeah.

Carry on...

Dave Gilmour thinks he's a pretty crap guitarist, how wrong he is. On my three best albums it is arranged 1. Wish You Were Here (I love Have A Cigar) 2. The Wall and 3. Dark Side Of The Moon (Time contains one of the most beautiful guitar solo's ever constructed, so bluesy yet so vibrant!)

Nice!

I will tell ya'll something about Waters and his lyrics.

For truly haunting incredible lyrics, check out the songs "Two Suns in the Sunset" and "The Final Cut" off the underrated album, The Final Cut. Maybe the album is too meloncholy for the general majority of Floyd fans, and is admittingly musically adventurous, but those two songs are amazing. I happen to love the whole album, and as sick of people are of the conceptual design of most of Floyd's albums, it would be a sin for hardcore Floyd fans to not give that album some love.

Also, Meddle is a masterpiece too. Echoes is absolute brilliance, and we all know Fearless is mindblowing.

Some tidbits about Gilmour and his writing outside of Waters, if you can find it, Gimour released a solo album in the mid 80s called About Face. There's a song on that album called "Murder" that is jawdropping. Excellent writing on that song. Very dramatic. The rest of the album is slightly mediocre though, but if you can't find that song lemme know and I'll post it.

I'll see if I can track it down. Sounds interesting.

My favorite songs are Comfortably Numb, Time, Welcome to the Machine, Money and Eclipse... David Gilmour is an amazing guitarist, and i have to agreee that comfortably numb is better live. I find it creepy on dark side of the moon - brain damage when its like "I'll see you on the dark side of the moon"... anyway a fantastic band, and lots of their music is very relaxing.

I think Floyd is more than argueably the best band ever. The didnt just make music, they made art. Everything about their songs just works so perfect...DSOTM is a masterpiece, one of them albums thatll never get old-even if you listened to it 3 times a day for the rest of your life. Every song on that album, better or worse, is just as important an aspect to it than the last, TIme will forever be one of my favs. WUWH is so touching to me, that theres not even words. Welcome to the machine is probably one of my favorite songs, but only when i listen to it with the album. Animals took floyd from the slow rock/jazz combo to a bit more hard rock, crazy solos...making Sheep one of my favortie songs ever. The Wall is a bit unlike the FLoyd sound i enjoy listening to...but still a piece of art. COmfortably Numb, Another Brick I-II, The Trial, all classics.

After Waters left, theres no doubt the band got a bit worse...but worse for pink floyd is only 9 bars above incredible as to 13. The Final Cut and Momentary Lapse arent good, they have their moments, but still...Division bell is a good one. Greatest guitar work ive heard in a long time, Marooned, Take it Back, High Hopes. Its a great album.

The word of them reuniting is spreading like crazy around here...i just heard it on the radio on the way home, but its just not gonna happen. the Magazines say that for more issues sold-Djs for more listeners, they just want money, so they start rumors. The odds of that happening are about 1:50, but if it did...I think it would be great. Id buy tix to that show so fast and pay as much as it takes. I dont care if they suck now, i just want to see the greatest band of time in action again.

hey you is the best song its kinda of haunting though
espiceally the video for it on the wall dvd

does ne body have any stuff from them with syd barret on guitar

oh the movie the wall kick ***

[QUOTE=jimi hendrix the third]hey you is the best song its kinda of haunting though

Piper At the Gates is a great album.(Syd Barret on guitar)

My favorite, as I said earlier, is Animals. I think it combines the overall sound and musical quality of WYWH with the dark and emotional lyrics of the Wall to form a happy medium that fits me perfectly. Plus, Animals is their best concept album, but no one considers it as one.

[QUOTE=KingofDudes]Comfortably Numb is great on the "Is There Anybody Out There? The Wall Live: 1980-81" CD. I havent heard anything off of Delicate Sound of Thunder, but im downloading Time and Comfortably Numb off of it now. :thumb:

The Wall in general has very haunting lyrics IMO.

Like Lunch, my favorite Floyd CD is Animals.[/QUOTE]

The Wall is a concept album I believe.

I absoloutly adore Shine On You Crazy Diamond

[QUOTE=Big-Bird]The Wall is a concept album I believe.[/QUOTE]

Which is why I said the whole album has haunting lyrics.

Ummagumma is a concept album, isn't it?

The final song certainly is very strange.

I pity this thread...ive only rad the first page but i seems as if it was all the WYWH , DSOTM, and The Wall fans......and A few exceptions of Animals.....ok first of all DSOTM is overrated in a way...it is an awesome album but is given more appreciation than it always should....The best floyd song is obviously THE NILE SONG from the album "More: Music from the Motion Picture." This song is perfect in every way as in it mixes psychadelic sound with heavy distorted metal guitars and vocals better than what they normally did...in the song Atom Heart Mother off of the album of the same name there is a truly awesome slide solo.....and any floyd fan that picks WYWH over A Saucer Full of Secrets is insane......OK now the Wall is a dark creepy album but I am ashamed to say the album The Fragile by NIN is a dark two disc album that is fairly similair to The Wall but sadly alot better so please listen to it and compare them....now lastly.....listen to all the Floyd songs before u pick your favorite... :angry:

OMG this made me want to puke....The Division Bell Hurts my ears more than the putrid vocals of that band Coheed and Cambria! oh godddd......u forgot sum major "artistic" albums they made...PATGOD and Ummagumma...and i guess you could say More:MFTMP...please dont confuse the Division Bell with PINK FLOYD anymore...oh gpd...*throws up*

oh and Final Cut album did have Waters in it...and it was a very good album....only a couple notches below The Wall...

I have Ummagumma, More: Soundtrack from the Motion Picture, and Obscured by Clouds on tape, The Wall, DSOTM, WYWH and Piper At The Gates Of Dawn on CD, and have heard plenty of other songs. And I still prefer Wish You Were Here, Time, Run Like Hell and Comfortably Numb over any other song. So listen to other people before you spout off.
