seriously think about this, since I know there are some Floyd fans out there.\n\n"was it love, or was it the idea of being in love?"\nOne Slip-A Momentary Lapse of Reason\n\n"You say the hill's to steep to climb, climbing\nyou say you'd like to see me try, climbing\nyou pick the place and I'll choose the time\nand I'll climb the hill in my own way\njust wait a while for the right day"\nFearless-Meddle\n\njust a couple of the many that are out there.

You raise the blade, you make the change\nYou re-arrange me 'till I'm sane\nYou lock the door\nAnd throw away the key\nThere's someone in my head but it's not me.\nAnd if the cloud bursts, thunder in your ear\nYou shout and no one seems to hear\nAnd if the band you're in starts playing different tunes\nI'll see you on the dark side of the moon\n\nFuck it. They are all to good to pick out a couple. FYI, this song (brain damage) they wrote about the band member who dropped WAY to much acid and went insane....had to be institutionalized, thats where the "lunitic" comes from in the song

It sounds more like a I-wish-we-could-get-back-together song. The narrator probably broke up with a friend and regrets his decision. The three words that would've saved his relationship are "I love you."\n\nThis suggests that love is essential to friendship.

Have all yahoo users abandoned proper English?\n\nIf you meant, "Does everyone fall hard in love at some point in their lives", then the answer is NO.  Not everyone.  In my opinion it is a gift to go through life without falling hard in love.  It allows a person to remain more authentic, and true to their life's purpose.\n\nNow, if you meant, "Does everyone fall in love at some point in their difficult lives," again the answer is no.  I think everyone LOVES at some point, at least those of us who are not psychopaths.  But not everyone falls in love.  Some people don't even believe in love (in the medieval sense you've alluded to).

you love me...but you said that you hate me...you must love to hate me...that's it (hee hee)...but i love you too\n\nas far as a hippie thing...i don't think i fall into any one catagory...i grew up in the 80's but even then i was the odd one out...i had my hair really long...played sports...was in either really advanced classes or the "special" classes...i did not do the normal stuff as far as learning...didn't have a lot of freinds although everyone thought i was cool...no matter what group you would talk to...i was weird all my life\n\nbut i like most hippies that i met...the only ones i don't like are the activist type that get in your face about stuff that i have no control over...they get on my nerves\n\nand yes...i like music...i even like nirvana...but my music taste vary as much as i do in real life...i like everything from rap metel to classical...country to oprea and everything in between...some of the music i listen to i don't have any idea what they are saying...but it sounds nice so i keep listening...i have no favorite right now...the last favorite was enigma...my favorite by enigma is gravity (of love) (there are some samples of enigma below)\n\nand yes music is amazing...no other form enterianment can have us go from one extreme to the other emothionally...you could be sad one minute because a sad song is one...the next you feel really relaxed...the next you can fell like your about ready to jump up and scream...and all that could be by the same person

Just out of curiosity, why Comfortably Numb? It seems more like a condition in life than death. I suppose I'd want a Pink Floyd song as well, but probably Time, so it can serve a warning to all the living, and what not.\n\nIf not, then Alive with the Glory of Love, by Say Anything, since I'm going to die during a revolution anyway.

awww.... of course i do....those were the days, when we were younger!\nit means that we have come a long way, & glad that we've made it so far. it wasn't easy, but bittersweet.\njust like what whitney houston sings: i will always love you...ohhhh...\n\nIf I should stay, \nI would only be in your way. \nSo I'll go, but I know \nI'll think of you ev'ry step of the way. \n\nAnd I will always love you. \nI will always love you. \nYou, my darling you.

I'll give you a couple...\n\n"To love man is a challenge. Men do not open that door too\neasily.  To be loved in return means that he has discovered in you the part that was missing in him.

Hey you have you got Time for this I would not like you to get marooned on this answer cause that would just fill me with sorrow. \n\nOne of these days I'll just answer the question. I think I have the jugband blues, eh those were the happiest days of our lives. Now all we have is high hopes while we wait for the pipers at the gates of dawn.\n\nBack to your question... Arnold Layne was out there at one "time", but now he's gone to the Fletcher Memorial home for that great gig in the sky, to listen to the delicate sounds of thunder, if he has enough Money.\n\nDoes that answer your question if not I have a bike that I have lent to Emily so she can play. Oh Vera I wish u were here, to see the tigers brake (broke) free!!!\n\nSorry but I have 2 go and make myself comfortably numb now on the dark side of the moon, before I am woken by  the division bells, but if I can't sleep I will always be able to count sheep before learning to fly.\n\nIgnore all of the above I just had a momentary lapse of reason, my mind has been obscured by the clouds. Why do I keep talking you think I'd be lost for words, well I think I'm on thin ice now just one slip and you will be calling for the dogs of war I should stop now or perhaps run like hell I think I've just had one of my turns.\n\nNow all I can do is wait for the trial. I hope my mother will be there to suppress my young lust for Lucifer Sam, but while I'm biding my time and waiting for someone to bring the boys back home the show must go on and now we get to the final cut I must say goodbye cruel world and goodbye blue sky there is Nobody home!!!

If you like "The great gig ..." you've chosen a memorable tune, and there's very few Floyd melodies that can match Claire Torrey's soulful vocals.\n\nWhich is probably why the Floyd is immensely popular.   And while I have my quiet, reflective moods, that listen to "If" and "Fat old sun", "Wish you were here" and all of "Shine on" ... \n\nMy favorite all-around tune is "Poles apart".   The lyrics are sensitive and thoughtful, yet Gilmour totally rocks out in perhaps his best guitar solo as the song ends.

young lust, another brick in the wall pt 3, and Breathe are all my favorite pink floyd songs...well i love all pink floyd songs...but those are my favorites..

Nice!  I can totally relate.  Here are some of my suggestions for the first 3 sonatas.  The rest are perfect (except the spelling on "deceive").\n\nI fell into your eyes,\nOnly to realize they are portals to your lies.\nTake away this love and fill it with hate,\nDestroy me from within, don’t make me wait.\n\nWhy do you say this love is heaven,\nWhen I feel the heat and know it's hell?\nPromise not to even try,\nBecause all promises someday die.\n\nI hear your voice of emptiness,\nOr is it pure madness?\nHappiness evaporated into sadness,\nSuspended between light and darkness.

Those words were written by Chis Christferson in the song " Me and Bobby McGee."  Janice Joplin sang and recorded this song back in the 60's.  One of the best, if not the best song she every recorded.\nI would suggest the you the entire lyrics to get the full meaning/context of this phrase.

Fearless by Pink Floyd\n\nYou say the hill's too steep to climb \nJust climb it \nYou say you'd like to see me try \nClimbing \nYou pick the place and I'll choose the time \nAnd I'll climb \nThe hill in my own way \nJust wait a while for the right day \nAnd as I rise above the tree lines and the clouds \nI look down \nHear the sound of the things you said today \n\nFearlessly, the idiot faced the crowd \nSmiling \nMerciless, the magistrate turns 'round \nFrowning \nAnd who's the fool who wears the crown? \nAnd go down in your own way \nAnd every day is the right day \nAnd as you rise above the fear-lines in his brow \nYou look down \nHear the sound of the faces in the crowd

These are beautiful words, and one would hope we would all listen to them and incorporate them into our lives.  Cynically speaking, most people don't adhere to these words how valuable they are, tend to be negative, looking for the brass ring.  People struggle with enlightenment wanting to do it on their own, control the situation, and become frustrated when life doesn't turn out the way they want it.  Hope through the strength of believing in God that all things will turn out for the better is what we should strive for, however, in today's society, it is doubtful.  I would hope people would read these words and say, "I get it!".

What is love? What is this longing in our hearts for togetherness? Is it not the sweetest flower? Does not this flower of love have the fragrant aroma of fine, fine diamonds? Does not the wind love the dirt? Is not love not unlike the unlikely not it is unlikened to? Are you with someone tonight? Do not question your love. Take your lover by the hand. Release the power within yourself. Your heard me, release the power. Tame the wild cosmos with a whisper. Conquer heaven with one intimate caress. That's right don't be shy. Whip out everything you got and do it in the butt. By Leon Phelps

The whole sound and vibe of the song invites comparisons to an LSD trip. I don't think the title Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds was an accident.\n\n"Everyone smiles as you drift past the flowers that grow so incredibly HIGH!\n\nAnother line says "climb in the back with your head in the clouds and you're gone!"\n\nThe references are unmistakeable. Factor in the year it was released, the known affinity for the drug that John Lennon had, his love of psychedelic sounds, effects and lyrics and I think you have a good case.

I think they are symbolizing any time you stand up for what you believe in and people disagree with you.  They're not ready to make nice - they're not ready to forgive and forget.  They say that forgiving sounds nice but they don't think the can forget.  And then they illustrate why - why would someone tell them to shut up and sing or else???  That's in the lyrics of the song.  They're not ready to suck it up and go on.  They feel hurt, and they're going to keep on feeling hurt.
