This seemingly useless poll, due to the incredible omissions herein will try to determine what head-fi's favorite Pink Floyd song is......It will be completely impossible to ensure that your favorite makes the cut......I will do the best I can to pick the 9 that I think would cover most people's taste, but I will leave option 10 open for you to add one if yours doesn't make the cut...

enjoy

Where be the poll?

When I did read the thread title however, the first song that shot through my head was "Comfortably Numb."

 

[sonci]

I think their work is better judged as a full, album by album, while its difficult to rate each song, f.example Comfortably Numb is just a good song, but inside the Wall is just great,
I voted Shine on You, cause its the only one that can stand on its own..

 

[krmathis]

Guess I would have to say "Wish You Were Here"...
They have so many great songs to choose from though, so the above is not fully set in stone.

 

[alvin sawdust]

Wish you were here.Superb lyrics.

 

[WalkGood]

Pass, far too many great songs they produced for me to select one favorite, I love them all!!! An interesting bit of trivia is their original name, "Tea Set." The Piper at the Gates of Dawn, A Saucerful of Secrets, Soundtrack from the Film More, Ummagumma, Atom Heart Mother, Meddle, Obscured by Clouds, The Dark Side of the Moon, Wish You Were Here, Animals, The Wall, The Final Cut, A Momentary Lapse of Reason, Delicate Sound of Thunder, The Division Bell, Pulse and The Wall.

BTW their name was derived from the given names of two blues musicians that Barrett had in his record collection—Pink Anderson and Floyd Council. On the spur of the moment, Barrett created it upon the discovery that another band also named Tea Set were to perform at one of their gigs

[Uncle Erik]

How could you leave "Bike" off your list?!

It was the first Pink Floyd song I loved, but I was a 'youngun at the time. About eight or nine, if I recall.

I voted for "Shine On You Crazy Diamond." Love it.
