I will never understand how folks can think Roger Waters was the be all end all about Pink Floyd. This one song is miles beyond anything Waters ever released on a solo level. For me at least David Gilmour's soulful/haunting guitar and his ability to actually sing a song rather than just scream puts him head and shoulders above Waters any day.

Can make any difference, or turn back the page"

I've loved this since the first time I heard it all those years ago. It is very powerful IMO.
