I can understand this. Grandaddy's music does the same thing to me. I still love their songs though.

I have this c.d. I haven't made it all the way through it because I keep falling asleep when I play it. I like it but it is just so relaxing I doze off.

One of the better tracks on DG's weakest album, IMO.
(and that's some BAD sub-Yanni cover art!)

Indeed, Alan Parsons, at the time an engineer at Abbey Road Studios, produced Dark Side of the Moon for Gilmour and Pink Floyd.

And 12 RPees a much,much smaller one,for there #1!!

David deserves an much bigger island. #9.

Good enough to download --- and little enough airplay to be exempt from the compulsory 3 Floyd rating.

It's a very nice CD; no doubt - but a rather "quiet" one. This tune mostly reflects his wonderful deep guitar play.

I tend to prefer the material from Gilmour's first solo album over the second, and the second over the third. Having said that, one can hear the songwriting advancing over his earlier work through creative use of space and pausing--the influence of the last two Floyd albums, perhaps? Very lush and ambient. I like it.

another masterful segue!

Ungar, Mason & friends - Ashokan Farewell

Awesome tune, master guitars and vocals, excellent production, can't expect less from one of the greatest contemporary musicians

What a pompous, arrogant thing to say ... This is Gilmour, the master of emotional guitar playing. Who the hell are you?

My thoughts exactly!!

Meandering, self-indulgent, and boring.

Not a Floyd fan at all.

Every time I Hear this song I am reminded of an "Alan Parsons" Song "Turn of a Friendly Card"

Nice Groove ...

Dedicated to my mate in PA. On an Island

Remember that night
White steps in the moonlight
They walked here too
Through empty playground, this ghosts' town
Children again, on rusting swings getting higher
Sharing a dream, on an island, it felt right

We lay side by side
Between the moon and the tide
Mapping the stars for a while

Let the night surround you
We're halfway to the stars
Ebb and flow
Let it go
Feel her warmth beside you

Remember that night
The warmth and the laughter
Candles burned
Though the church was deserted
At dawn we went down through empty streets to the harbor
Dreamers may leave, but they're here ever after

Let the night surround you
We're halfway to the stars
Ebb and flow
Let it go
Feel her warmth beside you.

love love love Gilmour's voice... very beautiful imagery

Too bad this is the only good song on this yawn of an album. I was hoping for more but this is where the artist is at.
