You pulled me like the moon pulls on the tide What days have come to keep us far apart Come the night youre only what I want I see you on the street in company |
| ThirdRail_33 (Beautiful Bonita Springs in Sunny Florida) | Posted: Oct 01, 2011 - 08:03 7, only because it's such a great song |
| Cynaera (Kenneth's Frequency) | Posted: Jul 30, 2011 - 12:49 Oh...achingly beautiful. I've always loved Gilmour's music, but it's my first time hearing this, and I love it. Puts me in a very good place for today. Thank you, RP! |
| WonderLizard (2,755.46 mi. due east of Paradise) | Posted: May 28, 2011 - 11:14 It's hard to miss covering Thompson. But what amazes me is this soft almost gentle rendition from someone who glowers more than smiles. Nice. |
| spaceman (Vienna, Austria) | Posted: Apr 26, 2011 - 21:53 I much prefer Gilmour's voice to Thompson's. Amazing how high he can sing at his age... Not a big fan of gospel choir backgrounds, but other than that, I like this version a lot. |
| ThirdRail_33 (Beautiful Bonita Springs in Sunny Florida) | Posted: Mar 26, 2011 - 07:53 Passable cover/adequate effort, but nothing like RT's original, the Corr's cover, the Bonnie Raitt cover, etc. etc. etc., (and I suspect the upcoming Allison Krauss cover). |
| bluefrog | Posted: Feb 22, 2011 - 20:44 wtf ? I just read the rest of the comments. did I listen to the same song everyone else did ? am I in an alternate universe ? |
| bluefrog | Posted: Feb 22, 2011 - 20:43 1 or a 2 ? 1 or a 2 ? 1 it is . utter rubbish. |
| Shesdifferent (Just visiting this planet this is not my home) | Posted: Jan 22, 2011 - 14:12 Very nice but man, Gilmore has so mellowed in his age...... |
| MortimerS | Posted: Nov 20, 2010 - 11:50 I had this conversation with my nephew that was rather strange to me. It was strange because he does not see Pink Floyd from my history and he is a very good guitarist. He was saying that Mr. Gilmour was the sole reason that Pink Floyd existed and I (a bit buzzed) was saying that the crazy guy and Waters lyrics were the only reason that Floyd was any good. Lately, after listening for the first time to the Gilmour stuff, I understand where he is coming from. But my truth is that it was still the lyrics that made Pink, Pink... Mostly... Okay, Gilmours guitar had a lot to do with it. Maybe. :) Had Gary re-imagined this song with his electric it would have probably been outstanding. 4 for me. Kind of proved my original point :) Old dogs and new tricks for me.. |
| decorgirl (Alberta, Canada) | Posted: Nov 20, 2010 - 11:42 Stunning. The sort of song that, when you hear it, you have to you are compelled to just sit and do nothing but let it wash over you. Easy 10. Sigh. |
| rabaak | Posted: Nov 20, 2010 - 11:41 Mary Black has also done a very nice cover of this song. |

| Geecheeboy (under a crescent moon and palmetto tree) | Posted: Oct 19, 2010 - 19:38 Looks like a pretty Taylor guitar. Sounds sweet too. |
| ra990 | Posted: Oct 19, 2010 - 19:36 Definitely agree with you grelch (the first time). |
| grelch (SFCA) | Posted: Sep 08, 2010 - 16:04 I think this is a very lovely version of a wonderful song. Gilmour's version sounds very different, and it sounds quite natural coming from him. |

| darrio (Northern Ireland) | Posted: Jun 14, 2010 - 06:55 Any Trouble did a nice version on Girls Are Always Right. |

Maybe it's just my many years of listening to her do it, though. Agreed. Bonnie Raitt owns this song in my ears too! Gilmour sounds, er, wrong performing this. Check out this performance together w/ Richard Thompson: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1o8M74ufF4Q |

| CaptTofu (Wilton, New Hampshire) | Posted: Apr 11, 2010 - 18:05 David Gilmour is one of the best musicians ever. You always know his guitar style even before you hear his voice. I didn't know this album existed. It seems worth obtaining! |
| ra990 | Posted: Apr 11, 2010 - 16:47 So glad this made it on! |
