I never really considered this to be Pink Floyd. Maybe Floyd Lite.

Just because you can put a flower pot on your head...doesn't make it a hat.

Gave the song an 8.  Everyone would be going on and on about how awesome this song is...except that it gets disregarded because it doesn't have Waters ranting and raving on it.

Sounds to me like an early U2 influence.

I've covered a lot of ground listening to the Division Bell, this is one of the stand out songs for me. I really enjoy it. For me, the theme running through seems to be loss & subsequent, positive, regeneration and rejuvenation.

Don't care who it sounds like.

I like this song very much.

Actually if there is one word for whatever drum set-up this song uses it's "pretentious."

This is something I've recently noticed too, even though I've owned this CD since it was released.  I know that Gilmore has his own history of tasty delay effects (see: Run Like Hell), but this seems to be a nod to the Edge.
Great song.  The song after this on the disc, Coming Back to Life, is an awesome bookend with more great guitar work.

It's Edge-y all the way through.  The whole song reminds me of some other song...which one is it??? "Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For".  That's it.

I had this on cassette, and I SO need to get it on CD, or maybe get my music-guru to send it to me on MP3.  I love this song... David Gilmour has done some clunkers in his day, but to me, this is NOT one of them.  It's good to hear it on RP, since my cassette seems to have vanished...

I thought this was the Alarm before pulling it up. The vocals are eerily similar.

As far as the music goes, a highly underrated album IMO.
