Shine on you crazy diamond : The Pink Floyd thread

Supraman

This is the thread in which we talk about all things pink and floyd and the combinations thereof.



Favorite albums ? scenes from The Wall ? This is the place for them.

I'll start off. My favorite album is currently Animals, with Dark Side of the Moon at a close second. But my favorite all around song has to be Comfortably Numb.

Druhim

We already have a music thread...

GOJIRA!

Is your favorite color green?

And/or do you own a lot of hemp?

GABBO GABBO GABBO

The only thing I hate more than Pink Floyd is Reggae music.

Druhim

Pink Floyd is great, it's just that there's already a music thread. So shut your gaping piehole Gojira.

Supraman

Dead Legend

Kovak

Que?

Should I not make stereotypical assumptions about the practices of many Floyd adherants?

Bongs and hemp got me through college.. As my father before me.

Do you keep your Metamucil handy, so that you are always ready to shit on new threads, Dru?

Are you hoping for a little tin "Junior Mod" badge, or something?

Nah, but i do love the floyd. Hemp seems like it would be uncomfortable to wear, at least to me.

I've lost a lot of interest in Dark Side of the Moon
Wish You Were Here still sounds great
And ever since The Departed I've had Comfortably Numb stuck in my head

I agree with all of this.

Supraman

Wish you were here fucking rules. I have one of the album cases up on my wall.

Do we not already have a music thread? Aren't you exaggerating the truth just a little bit dear? Do I really do this in every thread? Didn't I say I like Floyd? Are you suffereing from low blood sugar? Does that explain your irritability?

I don't listen to pink floyd unless I'm stoned and I've been clean for at least 2 months.

The Dude With Herpes

The Final Cut is my favorite Floyd album.

I'm not entirely sure why, but it just is. I understand that it's not normal.

Echoes is still my favorite Pink Floyd song, but deep down inside I know it's terrible.

Oh no you di-uhnt

I like the longer version off Meddle more than the one on Echoes.

potatoe

Aneurhythmia

The Wall is trash.

Bergy

I think run like hell is my favorite floyd song.

It's good, but it seriously does not deserve to be 23 and a half minutes long.

I don't think pulse counts as an album.

Though that version of Comfortably Numb is so awesome words can't describe it. Every time that pops up on my MP3 player I turn it up so loud that my ears ring for hours afterwards.

Don't get me wrong, I love Pulse, and was a happy man when it finally came out on DVD last year. Questionable quality aside, the 5.1 rocks my socks and sometimes I just put it on with the TV off.

Starfuck

fuck the music thread

pink floyd deserves their own thread goddamnit motherfuckers


Echoes is my favorite song E V E R

I'm incredibly partial to Saucerful of Secrets and Piper at the Gates of Dawn, but that is mostly the Syd fanboy in me

Animals really is quite a great album

I have this like 8 disc bootleg collection I bought years ago for like $150 that has some live Animals stuff on it. The quality isn't all that great and it came in a big round tin container, but it is still amazing. It is called Variations on a Theme of Absence. I have since let a good buddy borrow it indefinitely, but it is such a great piece of Floyd work.

I think my dad has that DVD somewhere around here. The wall shake with floyd when its on the good speakers.

Seattle Thread

Meddle is the best album

Yep those are the biggies
I myself gone into this kick last year of going around libraries finding random British Invasion compilations
and cherry picking the ones I liked the best on a single cd
I'm very happy with it

Hell yeah. Also for anyone who hasn't gone through the Darkside over the Rainbow experience and is a fan, you should definitely try it out.

Yeah i've seen that. its pretty damn cool how they sync up. I also saw one of a few songs on The Wall set to scenes from Alice in Wonderland. It didnt work as well as Dark Side over the Rainbow but it was still pretty cool.

Uriel

The Wall is a pretty cool movie.

I didn't really understand it though, since I wasn't high at the time.

BusterK

Now I have to make a mental note to start a British Invasion thread next month
