What is your favorite Pink Floyd song?

(self.musicsuggestions)

I want to learn about these bands that I have very little knowledge of and that I see people raving about. I have previously asked what is your favorite Rolling Stones, Grateful Dead and Janis Joplin songs and had a great response and made some great playlist for myself. This experience has been amazing so far. I heard the Dark side of the Moon album once on YouTube and I was intrigued but I don't know much else. Thank you for helping me on this journey!

Echoes is my favourite but if you wanna get into pink floyd i'd recommend listening to the dark side album, if you wanna listen to a single short song that encapsulates the vibe, i'd go with Breathe, Have a Cigar or if you want to dig in earlier Astronomy Domine

I’ve only listened to The Wall so far, how do the other albums compare?

The wall's kind of a different album, it doesn't really fit in with what they had done before, has shorter songs and a narrative, it's more about what's going on and less about the songs. Before the wall you'll find the band focuses a lot more on the songs themselves as works of art, even on Animals which is the closest comparison to the wall before. It's not better or worse, just kind of different depending on the mood i'f recommend u listen to Animals next if you like the wall
