  • Pink Floyd what are their best ten tracks? These in my opinion are good places to start your interstellar journeying into the heart of this band's extensive oeuvre.

    Dogs is my no.1 as well, man that guitar work is serious business. Animals contains Dave’s most ferocious, angry, dramatic playing. If you haven’t heard it, listen to the Oakland 77 bootleg. It’s a real treat to hear Dave improvise and stretch out his solos. My favorite Floyd is the early stuff by a long shot however, I really connect with the dark, spacey, avant garde psychedelic jamming they used to do. Cheers!

    Excellent selection, although my own list would have to put _"Comfortably Numb"_ in the top spot, probably with _"Dogs"_ at the second spot. The remainder of my top 10 would include almost all of the songs in your list, although not in the same order. It's really nice to see _"High Hopes"_ mentioned. When _"The Division Bell"_ was released I felt it was a relatively weak album for Pink Floyd, but eventually noticed that I was playing it over and over again without getting tired of it, and that's especially true of _"High Hopes"._

    Just got a thumbnail of 'Julia Dreams' from a rather charming 1968 black and white video from the band, with a youthful Gilmour appearance that's completely charmed me. I was never the greatest fan of Floyds more, fey, Lysergic- infused- offerings- per se, with the exception of say, Grantchester Meadows, Fat old sun and Green is the colour perhaps, but this tune is quite the revelation.
    There's an incredible number of weird and wonderful bands coming my way lately via thumbnails from the glory days of the early 70's, e.g-Camel, Werewolf, Caravan...all with at least a smattering of 'keepers'- songs for the mp3.There's even stunning archive concert footage trickling through as well; in particular a Genesis,1973 appearance at Paris, Bataclan that is unfathomably good in cinematic quality. What a great tragedy Floyd didn't get their Wall concerts adequately filmed.

    Wow, you really went deep with your explanation. I think you made some great choices and I also love AHM too. I just think we need to love the songs. The great thing about ALL Pink Floyd music is it can mean something different to every lister and no one is wrong. This added with the fact their music is as relevant today as it was the day it was written makes it even more special!

    I don't think i've ever listend to this song without playing it all the way through, it's just that good.
    Atmospheric and subtle, but gloriously metaphoric in it's tones, it really is a tour-de-force of Pink Floyd at the peak of their powers.

    Another great vid! I was so pleased you dedicated that much time to MEDDLE..."One of These Days" is still huge in my life...when I worked overnight "progressive" rock radio, I/we (all the jocks did it) used to play "Dogs" and count the number of times the word echoes through the piece -- that's how boring overnight radio can be! (And none of us ever had the same word count!) I must agree with Roxanne Walsh below...I did love me some "See Emily Play." Thanks, Barry!

    Thoughtful video, well done. My list would be similar although I'd only include "Mk. II" Floyd songs from Meddle to The Wall, when the band figured out who they were and truly peaked. Fat Old Sun and Remember A Day are great songs, but they would have to be honorable mentions. Curious that Mr. CAR didn't rate any of The Wall tunes as good enough to make his cut. It's tough to leave off Comfortably Numb, which arguably has not only the best guitar solo in their catalog, but it might be the greatest guitar solo in Classic Rock history, no offence to Mr. Page.
    #1 Shine On You Crazy Diamond Pts. I-IX (the entire song, perhaps technically a medley). In fact, it's my favorite song in all of music for all the reasons Mr. CAR describes. Beautiful, haunting, timeless.

    My second favorite pink floyd song is Jugband blues. I have a soft spot for Syd and this song paints a painful picture of feeling alienated from his band and bandmates. We'll never know how much acid he took and the ultimate toll it had on him and I think the lyrics are surreal with him telling how he was something to be in charge of. He never wanted to be an icon of great attention or accept the demands from his producers and bandmates alike to create money making hits to no end. I still cry at the end of shine on you crazy diamond.

    My favorite PF song is A Pillow of Winds. It's so cosmically romantic. The whole Meddle album is in a world apart from their other albums.

    Picking ten is a really hard task when their best albums are much more than a collection of songs. My choice would come from those four classic albums from Dark Side to The Wall. The trouble is, just looking To the track lists and eliminating some feels like destroying part of my history for the last 45 years.
    I think I know my favourite track from each of those four - Us and Them, Shine On, Dogs and Comfortably Numb.

    For me, a top ten list of Pink Floyd songs would just be a snapshot in time. The order, and even many of the songs listed would change on a monthly basis. However, Comfortably Numb would always be number one. A song that rarely gets mentioned would also make the list somewhere: The Gold It’s In The... from Obscured By Clouds. Just wanted to give some love to that deserving bit of joy.

      @ Classic Album Review ... I stated 'Time' as being my favourite before I had heard any of your other choices beyond 'High Hopes' ( which I also really like; it actually reminds me a little of 'Breathing' by Kate Bush ) . Anyway they do say that " great minds think alike" lol. BTW my favourite line on 'Time' is ... " No one told you when to run ... you missed the starting gun" !

    Have you ever heard of the Finnish 90's band Kingston Wall? They made three albums and never got a record deal.. The guitarist/singer committed suicide in 1995.. Worth listen sometimes.. Records II and III Tri-logy are absolutely great albums and the first album is also good but a little bit different.. Or how to say it now.

    It's funny when I think of Wish You Were Here....If you'd have asked me 10 or 20 years ago, I would have definitely put it in my top 10 Floyd songs. I don't know why, but I started disliking the song a few years ago and I don't know what made me feel like that.
    Maybe I've listened to it too many times, and it's suffered the same fate that so many 'classic' rock songs have.
    I say it's funny because there are other Floyd songs that I've listened to roughly the same amount of times that haven't had the effect that WYWH has had....in fact if anything, I've liked them more.
    So yeh, it's funny the effect that some songs have on us 😎👍
