"the band is just fantastic, that is really what i think. oh, by the way, which ones pink?"
talks about people who listen to popular bands just to fit in. they call themselves, but they really dont know sh*t.

I totally agree with you and I'm so glad the floyd were able to represent that in such awesome lyrics.[hr

"Run to the bedroom and in the suitcase on the left you'll find my favourite axe."

Not to sound condescending but I hope we all know "favourite axe" means his guitar. Although "Pink" is pretty violent at that point.
(careful with that axe, bob geldoff

lol i think even people who dont play guitar or know nothing about guitar know that a guitar can be referred to as an axe. lol. true he was violent at this point so maybe his guitar doubled as an axe...for instance my cell phone doubles as a tazer

From Poles Apart:


"And did you see? It wasn't only me you were running from." The verse that the lyric is in is apparently directed at Roger, and when you think about it.....David's really saying something there.

I like The Final Cut a lot. The Wall is great as well, and its concept is the best of the whole Pink Floyd era.

The most beautiful, impressionist lyrics would probably be Echoes:
Overhead the albatross hangs motionless upon the air
And deep beneath the rolling waves
In labyrinths of coral caves
The echo of a distant tide
Comes willowing across the sand
And everything is green and submarine.

If I showed you my darkside will you still hold me tonight

The Final Cut

Echoes,...
"And no-one calls us to move on
And no-one forces down our eyes
And no-one speaks and no-one tries
And no-one flies around the sun.."

Either Echoes:
"I am you and what I see is me"

Or the first Pink Floyd lyrics I heard, from Time:
"No one told you when to run, you missed the starting gun"

I'll honestly have to agree with everyone; serously. Echoes and High Hopes is rediculously awsome...
