Yes, the idiot is obviously not an idiot. Also, I can't keep my eyes from the circling skies - tongue-tied and twisted, just an earth-bound misfit. |

Physically bound, spiritually free. Without the binds, could the spirit soar? |

That is debatable, and I shall not go in-depth on that very matter right now, good sir. |

This thread's very poetic and all, and I hate to bump in like this (so feel free to delete this post if it somehow bothers you), |
|
That's up to you to decide. Deform the posts with your mind, and absorb them however you are inclined to see fit. Be voluptuous here, good sir, for this is a voluptuous topic. None of us shall agress. |

You pick the place and I'll choose the time is also a line in Fearless, which is indeed a song by Pink Floyd. |
|
Yeah, I didn't realise that until you mentioned it though. Man I love that song. I really need to dig that album back out, haven't heard it in a long time. |
|
I hadn't heard it in a long time either. I thought I should listen to some Pink Floyd, so I listened to some Wish You Were Here, Fearless and of course Dark Side of the Moon. |

I like you already. |

I first heard "Another Brick in the Wall" when I was about 8 or so and was in love with the band ever since then. Though, I must admit I'm not much of a fan of the post-Roger Waters Floyd. Waters was what make them so great. |
|
Yeah, the name alone annoys me. But I'll be sure to check out some Waters solo albums. I've heard some Syd Barrett solo songs, but they aren't too great. I never really liked the PF albums when Barrett was in lead anyway. Seems to me like they hadn't found their groove, and Barrett was always a bit of a looney. Only shows later, when he became mental. But it's still undeniable, Barrett did establish somewhat of a ground that Pink Floyd established on. |

I've heard some of David Gilmore's solo stuff and I'm not impressed by it either. The style is too far from the PF style. |

Ah, a Pink Floyd discussion, about time. I've always liked the band, but it wasn't until earlier this year that I started listening to them religiously. The reason for that is because I stumbled upon an explanation of the Wall and the indepth symbolism that transfers from song to song. I love when songs have symbolism and when the band actually puts the effort in to make that symbolism work. |

Pink's? You realize noone in the band is called Pink, nor Floyd? |
|
In the album the Wall, the protagonist's name is Pink. Very evident in the song In the Flesh. |

Careful with that ax, Eugene. |

I wish they'd get back together. Roger has said he'd like to do a full reunion but David dosn't. |
