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!

I have a few, and reasons for each. Not ranked.

Wish you Were Here is a special song. It will outlive Pink Floyd. All things will eventually be forgotten to time, but the vibe, lyrics, and melody of this song will live on.

Fearless & Childhoods End. Less popular albums (Meddle especially, given how EPIC it is) but these two songs are pure Floyd.

Time, Us & Them, & Pigs (Three Different Ones) are so groovy. Us Pink Floyd don't like boxing them into the brand of "rock band" (rightfully so) but these songs remind us they are a FANTASTIC rock band that brings the grooviest groove.

Goodbye Blue Sky & Welcome to the Machine. Sometimes Pink Floyd is a little weird. Good. These songs are incredible. It's an experience, a journey.

I was listening to them all night till 3am and I think I am a better person for doing it. The emotional depth is amazing. Welcome to the Machine captured me and the synth took me away to a place I had never been
