At a beer festival:
It was a truly glorious summer's day in the middle of July, I was sitting on a bench with a beer in my hand, talking to an attractive barmaid. I wondered if life could get any better. Then the band started playing "Comfortably Numb" by Pink Floyd, which I consider to have the best guitar solo of any piece of music ever written.

Whenever I'm feeling grumpy I think back to that day and grin... Like I am now.

Click if you think Pink Floyd are awesome.

No click from me after 1970, then.
'The Wall' is far and away the most pompous, overblown, self-indulgent pile of wank ever committed to triple album, massive stage show and full length film.

I agree for the most part
But there are a few bright points - 'comfortably numb' and 'the wall' parts 1-3.

Barrett, yes - Waters, no, in my house.

I think
My second favourite floyd song has to be "Set the controls for the heart of the sun". It's the only one that all five members played together on.

Edit: This is a lie. My second favourite song is definitely "Echoes".

Echoes is fucking awesome
don't listen to Monty too much. We all know Roger Waters is an enormous arsehat, but they did some good stuff on Dark Side and The Wall.

I don't like the idea that people are just going to vote for songs that they like
rather than the stories behind them... However I do like Tubular Bells. ;)
