The only song on this masterpiece, arguably best album of all times, all genres, that I do not like. I heard Roger Waters play it one time on acoustic as a slow classic blues tune and it sounded much better like that.{#Yes}

It may well be one of the worst (least good) songs on the LP, but it's still better than many other bands best songs relative to their collective outputs.


 

I respectfully disagree on the basis of the extended guitar solo alone.  One of the greats.

In the warm light of his eyes by ~Araen

It took two weeks after daily work to complete the drawing. I scanned it in 2 parts because of it's size. Unfortunately I used wrong tools: an old, technical-drawing paper, and a too hard (4B) pencil - better things weren't under my hand at this time. I didn't have possibilies to draw until years, so I had to relearn to select and use the right tools.


 
This is a beautiful portrait...and Roger has definitely improved with age.

I'm with you on that one! I don't think I can ever seperate the audio from that image. Intentional or not - what a great soundtrack to the film.

My opinion, for what that's worth:   The worst (commercial top 40) song on the best (cutting edge, redefining music as we know it) album of all time.      It would have been a hell of a tune for anyone else, but looking at the rest of the album, it seems like a sellout.  Still a 8.5 for me though. . . .  .
 
There is no way to listen to this objectively and consider it a "sellout". Mainstream radio might play it 24 hours a day, but they can never co-opt the meaning of this song.

Agreed, though it only gets a 6 from me. On one of those documentaries; Roger played the way he first wrote it, more of a Mississippi delta blues style and it was awesome, just should've kept it a stripped down acoustic blues song! Anyway, this is the only song on the inarguably "Best Album of all Times" that I don't like!{#Notworthy}

Ya, but its censored thanks to Janet Jackson's tittie. I'm sorry you still listen to Clear Channel Terradio. Friends don't let friends listen to Clear Choice.

I want that do goody bullshit !!

I curse Janet Jackson's tittie...though I now have a mental image of it working in an office as a censor...with a little jaunty hat.
