Best Pink Floyd Song?

Thaspian	Date: March 17, 2004 @ 3:45 PM I vote for Us And Them. Very calming.
dkeifer	Date: March 17, 2004 @ 3:55 PM Careful With That Axe, Eugene. Creepy.
Distilled1	Date: March 17, 2004 @ 4:25 PM Sheep all parts then 3 four off of obscured by clouds is a great tune Hell I love them all
kredd	Date: March 17, 2004 @ 5:09 PM learn to fly or learning to fly ...my favorite regardless of what its called!
torndownunit	Date: March 17, 2004 @ 5:15 PM Fearless from Meddle. Actually, the whole Meddle album.
Distilled1	Date: March 17, 2004 @ 5:19 PM Meddle is very cool So is learnig to fly got to see that live at Solder Field in Chicago center stage about 30 rows back!
robbydadrummer	Date: March 17, 2004 @ 7:18 PM If I'm just listening, "Shine On You Crazy Diamond"... If I'm trippin, "Echoes".

nvoise	Date: March 17, 2004 @ 8:09 PM "bike"
johnnygnote	Date: March 18, 2004 @ 3:11 AM So far all of the above are excellent. I love Grantchster Meadows, Fearless and San Tropez on the mellow side. On the rock side I love Run and Dogs Of War, as well as Learning to Fly. On the bizarre side I love Several Species of Small Furry Animals in a Cave Jiving with a Pict, very cool.... Like Distilled said "hell I love em all"
Dexter	Date: March 18, 2004 @ 7:17 AM Tough choice. :thinking: At the moment - Comfortably Numb.
mawcs	Date: March 18, 2004 @ 11:02 AM YOU HAVE GOT TO BE KIDDING!? There is no such thing as "the best" Pink Floyd song. Having said that. I think I still really get a kick out of Wish You Were Here and The Machine.
mawcs	Date: March 18, 2004 @ 11:03 AM I just realize that I might be misunderstood by my previous comment. I meant that all Pink Floyd songs are "the best" and none of them are "better." Its just a matter of temporal prejudice
Gmonk	Date: March 20, 2004 @ 12:12 PM Comfortably Numb gets my vote averytime! G
hrpr99	Date: March 20, 2004 @ 1:43 PM Best Pink Floyd song - mighty difficult! But for atmosphere and summing up the late sixties - Remember a Day
pog	Date: March 20, 2004 @ 5:52 PM Several species !
pog	Date: March 20, 2004 @ 5:54 PM Yah I saw Johnny had posted it... though for some reason I thought it was Several species of a small furry animal, gathered together in a cave, grooving with a pict.

Acumen	Date: March 20, 2004 @ 9:50 PM Dogs no doubt within my mind
pog	Date: March 21, 2004 @ 2:38 AM yeah... !! sheep's cool, to.
pog	Date: March 21, 2004 @ 4:39 AM anything off animals for that matter
robbydadrummer	Date: March 21, 2004 @ 4:09 PM We were getting ready to play our second set at the gig last night, and "Fearless" came on the jukebox. We started playing along with it... lol.
UnbreakableTed	Date: March 22, 2004 @ 10:29 AM One of These Days. Or Pigs (3 Different Ones). Or Dogs. Or Wish You Were Here. Or... crap.
wailingmiserere	Date: March 26, 2004 @ 6:07 PM Hard to choose but I would say Great Gig in The Sky
milladrive	Date: March 26, 2004 @ 6:16 PM This is one of the most difficult questions to answer.
pog	Date: March 26, 2004 @ 8:06 PM Mother
fighterpilot	Date: March 27, 2004 @ 2:39 AM theres just too many.....maybe i'd go for Echoes....or Shine On....errr....Money? dude theres just too many lol
wailingmiserere	Date: March 30, 2004 @ 9:32 AM oh yes... forget Echoes
wailingmiserere	Date: March 30, 2004 @ 9:33 AM hmmm... i meant forgot Echoes, of course
PuffDanny	Date: April 10, 2004 @ 12:59 PM I have to definately vote for Dogs. My favorite album is definately Animals. I like them all but my favorite right now is Animals. Another album I really like (and this is not a popular opinion) is the Final Cut. What's everyone's favorite album?
pmscpc	Date: April 15, 2004 @ 2:43 AM THE GREAT GIG IN THE SKY (Dark Side of the Moon) and WISH YOU WERE HERE... and almost nothing from The Wall onwards.
jeddak	Date: April 15, 2004 @ 2:46 PM On the Run (actually, I'm serious)
Veracohr	Date: April 18, 2004 @ 7:49 AM I concur with 'Dogs'. 'Wish You Were Here' is of course a classic and must be included. 'Welcome to the Machine', 'Echoes', 'One of These Days'. I'm not very familiar with anything before Meddle or after The Wall.
Intergalacti...	Date: April 18, 2004 @ 10:08 AM very hard to decide but great gig in the sky maybe? thats prob my favourite anywya
Thaspian	Date: April 18, 2004 @ 11:27 AM The Great Gig In The Sky scared me. I'd go with Dogs and Us And Them.
PuffDanny	Date: April 18, 2004 @ 12:58 PM The Nile Song
djfacemachine	Date: April 18, 2004 @ 1:02 PM i watched wizard of oz synched with dark side of the moon last night at this movie theater. but it was so bad. they totally messed it up and nothing was meshing at all. the first time i did it, it was absolutely perfect. the second time was just ok. and this time just really blew. i've never actually seen that movie with the sound...
Technicolour	Date: April 24, 2004 @ 11:07 PM dude, this topic is blasphemy. You can't define a single song as Pink Floyds best work. Pink Floyd in itself was their best work. This would be like saying "What's the best Led Zeppelin Song?" it just should not be done.
Thaspian	Date: April 24, 2004 @ 11:21 PM I hate that. Pink Floyd was not god, and wasn't the start all end all of all music. They were a _very_ talented band, but it just seems arrogant reading things like that. Dogs was awesome.
synesthesia	Date: April 29, 2004 @ 3:20 PM Technicolour, I agree with thee. blasphemous wankerism
ps-I-forgot	Date: May 21, 2004 @ 7:25 PM Mine has always been "jugband blues"...I love Syd's lyrics in that song and lyrically it's one of my all-time favorites as well.
100thmonk	Date: May 22, 2004 @ 5:04 PM several species!! yeah johnny!! also astronomy domine milla's right though, this is way to hard to be conclusive abut.
vucky	Date: May 23, 2004 @ 12:07 AM i'm sure the title is. 'maroon' ?? it's very nice instrumental.
chrismacmanus	Date: May 23, 2004 @ 8:42 AM Shine on gets my vote Don't really agree to much with the Scissor Sisters' rape and pillaging of Comfortably Numb - shockingly bad stuff
adititahiti	Date: May 26, 2004 @ 8:27 AM anything from when syd was in it
ihatejacknjills	Date: May 26, 2004 @ 10:49 AM I like 'Time'
ICF	Date: May 26, 2004 @ 10:54 AM Anything in "the wall"!!
thought-fox	Date: June 1, 2004 @ 12:12 PM Wish You were Here is great - I like to think about it being addressed to Syd, Shine On Crazy Diamond, but my favourite is on Division Bell and has fantastic lyrics - it is Coming Back To Life, I just love that song and the sentiments - it's really uplifting. Pink Floyd are just amazing to have been going so many years and still turning out show stoppers.
100thmonk	Date: June 1, 2004 @ 4:55 PM anyone ever hear voivod do astronomy domine? that's a pretty cool cover of pink floyd.
Traf	Date: June 3, 2004 @ 8:02 PM Without a doubt... Coming Back to Life on the Division bell... The best song ever.. Oh.. well theres' Cumfy Numb as well.. yes, Cumfortably Numb... er, and of course Brick in the wall.. Yes, that one...
UNDERTAKER2B	Date: September 16, 2004 @ 12:52 AM Gotta say High Hopes is the best song. Best guitar solo EVER!!
povertystricken	Date: September 16, 2004 @ 1:02 AM Shine On You Crazy Diamond 1-9
vucky	Date: September 16, 2004 @ 3:41 AM maroon
Droquen	Date: September 16, 2004 @ 8:57 PM Comfortably Numb!!!
mudshadow	Date: September 17, 2004 @ 9:24 PM "Bike"
gothian	Date: September 19, 2004 @ 12:33 AM This is unfair, I wouldn't be able to write just one song
AppleJuice	Date: September 19, 2004 @ 9:16 PM HIGH HOPES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!or comfortably numb...or pigs.....or dogs......or goodbye blue sky.....or e careful with that axe Eugene........or Set The Controls for the Heart of The sun........
migbee	Date: September 23, 2004 @ 6:35 PM alans psychedelic breakfast or fearless. those songs are incredible. dogs is very good, as well.
migbee	Date: September 23, 2004 @ 6:38 PM "Another album I really like (and this is not a popular opinion) is the Final Cut." the final cut is way too depressing. thats the only floyd album without any sort of happiness. the nile song is fucking heavy.
mudshadow	Date: September 23, 2004 @ 8:14 PM "The Narrow Way" -Umma Gumma
AppleJuice	Date: September 26, 2004 @ 3:26 AM Animals is pretty depressing actually.
koiulpoi	Date: October 5, 2004 @ 5:04 PM Shine On You Crazy Diamond can't beat the guitar work in the later parts. at all.
