Pink Floyd - Whats your favorite album?

[tree_dude]

Dark Side Of The Moon is my favorite album. My favorite song is time. How about yours?

[Manfred Mann]

Mine is Dark Side of The Moon as well, a close second would be Meddle

[whereismymind]

Animals is the best Pink Floyd album. Dark side of the moon is over rated.

[tree_dude]

The Wall is another good album by them too.

[piggyman18]

Wish You Were Here and Animals are better than Dark Side and The Wall. My guess is those are the only two albums of their's you've heard, as they are the most popular.

I have:
Dark Side of the Moon
The Wall
Animals
Meddle
Piper at the Gates of Dawn
Atom Heart Mother
Wish You Were Here

[Mount_Happy]

Dark Side is indeed overrated.

My favourite album is Animals, i think they displayed the best musicianship in that album. Sheep and Dogs kick ass.

[Manfred Mann]

How is Dark Side of the Moon overrated? A lot of the songs on that album are on the radio yea...but say none of the songs from that album were never played on the radio...I think most would say wow you need to check out Dark Side of the Moon it might be their best album.

no you need to check out Animals before you say anything else. I can already tell your brainwashed because you think just because an album doesnt get airplay on the radio its not good? Youve obviously never heard Animals either because then youd know all of the songs on it are too long to be put on the radio, thats the exact reason why Dark Side is overrated, because it gets so much airplay and its so widely praised even though its obviously not Pink Floyd's best work, anybody whos heard a decent amount of their songs aside from Dark Side of The Moon would know that.

My advice to you: go check out Animals and Wish You Were Here, then come back and tell me Dark Side is their best and most deservingly praised album.

edit: ok you edited your post, still, even if Dark Side didnt get as much play time as it did, its still not their best album.

If you would of read my post earlier i said I have both Animals and Wish You Were Here, as in I own them, so I have listened to them. I know they are too long to play on the radio. Both are great cds, no doubt, I just seem to enjoy DSOTM a lot. I'm pretty sure the thread title reads: "Pink Floyd-What's your favorite album?", not which is the best, indeed, Animals shows good musicianship, but that doesnt mean that makes it the favorite in others minds.

Also, people might have a favorite song on one album, but say another cd is their best because overall the songs are better as a whole. Would that mean the album with the persons favorite song should be the one they choose as being the best?

[se7en777]

definitely The Wall because it tells a story and i love the songs.

[heaven's satan]

Mount_Happy, i agree that DSotM is a overrated album, but that doesn't mean that it can't be someones favorite album. it's one of my favorite albums, but there are other amazing albums as well (Animals, Wish You were Here, The Wall). why i like DsotM is because of it's amazing use of its instruments. if you listen through about all the songs, the drumming and vocals are so calming (same with guitar, but not all of the songs).

[Mount_Happy]

Mount_Happy, i agree that DSotM is a overrated album, but that doesn't mean that it can't be someones favorite album.
I didnt argue that it was someones favourite album, this is what i argued:

you need to check out Dark Side of the Moon it might be their best album.

and thats all i was arguing, i could care less if it was someones most favourite album, or someones least favourite.

[heaven's satan]

shit, i overlooked that. sorry, man.

[Manfred Mann]

I didnt argue that it was someones favourite album, this is what i argued:



and thats all i was arguing, i could care less if it was someones most favourite album, or someones least favourite.

I didnt mean it in a sense that you should go check it out, I assumed you have heard it already. And why would you post in a thread that you could care less if its someone most or least favorite album in a thread titled "Pink Floyd-Whats your favorite album"? I'm not trying to anger you, you just seemed to jump the gun a little bit and were preaching me on how I should check out Animals and Wish You Were Here when I had already posted I have those two albums. I agree with you, those albums are great, the songs are to long to play on the radio, but that doesnt mean "oh well you are brainwashed because if an album isnt played on the radio its not good" should be assumed of me. I have the other cds, you just were to blind to see my other post.

[drizzt]

How's about Ummugumma and Atom Heart Mother? Those are two of my favorite. Choosing a favorite Floyd album is like choosing between apples and apples.

[PrintNameHere]

My top 3 right now are Meddle, WYWH and DSotM.

I'm not a big fan of Animals but I do enjoy it. I think Dogs is an overrated song, especially people who praise it's genius. It's a good song but there isn't some big hidden message behind it. Anyone who has read Animal Farm knows this.

[Superfly]

The Wall..............

[RedDragon399]

another brick in the wall is by far the best album ever!

[strikeandburn]

I like
The division bell
WYWH
Dark side of the moon
The wall
Animals

Is there not a thread like this already?

[floydheadnumba1]

another brick in the wall is by far the best album ever!
Hehe, a musical noobie.

[Darth Stevious]

Animals is the best Pink Floyd album. Dark side of the moon is over rated.


Fuck you.

[jesusHBKchrist]

Fuck you.

pink floyd is for pretenious english wankers that don't know how to play guitar...

[floydheadnumba1]

pink floyd is for pretenious english wankers that don't know how to play guitar...
I am interested to hear what YOU listen to, fucker.
I'm not English, and I'm sure as hell not preteenious.
I'll bet you like emo shit.

[skater910]

Five favorites...

The Wall
Wish You Were Here
The Final Cut
Dark Side of the Moon
Animals

[mech_rabbit]

Ummagumma is my favorite album, dark side of the moon IS overrated and probably is the only reason why most of you know who pink floyd is, animals is pretty effing good, and I like the wall because it's been my favorite movie since I was 4.

[Captain Kirk]

Anything that doesnt have Syd Barret on is irrelevant

[Honkey_Donkey]

LIEK OMG DSOTM IS MY FAV CUZ IT'S ALL I HAVE is all I'm hearing out of most of you.
For any TRUE Floyd fan, there is no definite best album, nor is there any best PF song. All are simply incredible, whether lead by Barrett or Waters or Gilmour.
Get your heads out of your asses and look past The Wall and DSOTM and Wish You Were Here and pick up some of their older albums. Shit.

[bigjohn711]

The Division Bell is by far the most depressing. And Ironically the most meaningful. It also applies to whats going on right now in our government. Listen close to those lyrics. :thud:

[PrintNameHere]

High Hopes, being the last song ever released by Pink Floyd (excluding Echoes greatest hits you dykes) is pretty depressing.

[Deakmm]

I have every floyd album released and some of the solo albums aswell and i think its impossible to choose a favourite album as my top 3 changed all the time, like at the moment its-

1. Meddle
2. Atom heart mother
3. Obscured by clouds

I think every album is great to doff people (except amlor which sucked except for the intro on sorrow)

[PrintNameHere]

The only albums I haven't listened to are More and Zabriskie Point.

[jesusHBKchrist]

pink floyd are still pretensious english wankers.

[Captain Kirk]

^They were less so with Syd Barret..never released a decent note after he left

[Qwerty23]

Darkside of The Moon is my favorite album by Pink Floyd. However my favorite song by Pink Floyd is Another Brick in the Wall. Also Shine on You Crazy Diamond is a great song.

[PrintNameHere]

Shine on you Crazy Diamond is a fucking amazing song. I am gonna go watch the PULSE version of it live.

[floydheadnumba1]

^They were less so with Syd Barret..never released a decent note after he left
Someone is wrong...

QUOTE PRINTNAMEHERE: Yes, the song and the concert are/were amazing. :D

[sparrky]

the division bell and wish you were here and definatly my favorites. but then again I only have 5 or 6 albums of theirs.

[Captain Kirk]

My faves:

1. Astronomy domine
2. See Emily Play
3. Interstellar Overdrive
4. Arnold Layne
5. Bike

wow... you really are a pretensious english wanker.

[floydheadnumba1]

wow... you really are a pretensious english wanker.
Wow, you really are a fag. Like I said before, I'm guessing you listen to crap.

[led_head]

Animals would have to be my favorite, Dark Side Of The Moon is great, but it is overrated. Meddle is a very much underrated album, as is The Piper Of The Gates Of Dawn, I love Floyd's early stuff.

[jesusHBKchrist]

Wow, you really are a fag. Like I said before, I'm guessing you listen to crap.

no.. if i listened to crap i would listen to pretenious english progressive rock... or Rush.

[Captain Kirk]

:sleeping: ..anything after Barret is irrelevant like i said

[jesusHBKchrist]

dude.... floyd sucks so bad they would have to blow to be hard rock...

[Deakmm]

They dont wanna be 'hard roc'
Floyd cant be put into any genre because its all so diffrent, there legends and i font give a fook what you yanks think

[Mr X]

Guys, what is your take on Dark Side of the Moon, and the unusual way it works with The Wizard of Oz movie........

Dark Side Of The Moon - AKA - The Wizard of Pink.

Any thoughts?

[invisible 903]

Coincidence, the band members said so themself.

[Mr X]

Coincidence, the band members said so themself.

But isn't that one hell of a coincidence??? :confused:

[Mount_Happy]

I believe it was Roger Waters who, when asked about the Wizard of Oz deal, said "Some people just have too much time on their hands..."

[the FLY]

pink floyd cd's are only good as beer coasters.

[Captain Kirk]

Just buy Pipers...cut the rest of the bullshit

[heaven's satan]

Just buy Pipers...cut the rest of the bullshit

it is true, Pink Floyd was not the same without Syd Barret, but tPatGoD is definetely not their ownly good album. sure Syd Barret was very important, but they were still amazing even when he was cut from pink floyd.

[Honkey_Donkey]

Y'know Barrett does Jugband Blues on A Saucerful of Secrets...he didn't completely leave after they picked up Gilmour. Not until the drugs started affecting his performance. When this happened, the band slowly pushed him out.

[floydheadnumba1]

pink floyd cd's are only good as beer coasters.
I laugh at people like you who call their music bad, yet you like bands like ICP and Slipknot. Not only do they play about 3 notes durung an entire song, but they need very gay costumes so that they can sell their albums to retards like you.

[Captain Kirk]

When did he say he liked those bands?

[stevib]

he couldnt have, it was his first post .

LoLz

who is ICP and slipknot?
i've never even heard of them...

[tree_dude]

Pink floyd is the shit. All this modern rock is 100 percent crap. I gotta stick with the oldies. Simply THE best

[the FLY]

i use dark side of the moon for wipey wipey...

[piggyman18]

LOLZ!! I LOOOOV Dark Side Of THe MOON, but my favoite song is: "We Don't Need No Education" :rolleyes:

[invisible 903]

LOLZ!! I LOOOOV Dark Side Of THe MOON, but my favoite song is: "We Don't Need No Education"

I think you mean "Another brick in the wall [Part 2]", unless you were being sarcastic.

[Honkey_Donkey]

I think he was kidding. The LOLZ!! is a dead giveaway...

[Captain Kirk]

Just buy Relics or Piper..fuck the rest

[Honkey_Donkey]

or don't buy any of them and just download all of them. The only ones I've bought are Animals, DSOTM, The Wall, Wish You Were Here, Meddle, Piper and A Saucerful of Secrets. After that, I realized that the store I go to overcharges on everything so I just downloaded the rest

[BiL PiDJ]

1. Dark Side of the Moon
:Less of an album than an expirience. Excellent blend of lyrics with music
2. Wish You Were Here
:Better individual songs than DSotM. More music-oriented. Tremendous.
3. The Wall
:Excellent songs on here. Great album. I skip large portions of it at times though. Not entirely fond of Rogers voice, but it works.
4. Animals
:Great concept album. Not their best work, though. I love "pigs on the wing"
5. Meddle
:Not entirely fond of most of it. One of These Days and Echoes are some of their best work ever, though.
6. Saucerful of Secrets
:Interesting album, I bought it at random not knowing what itd be like. I hated it at first, buts it grown on me and is very underated.
7. Atom Heart Mother
:Pink Floyd's first #1. If is great. Alans Psychedlic breakfast is pretty fun. Title track is not my favorite, but there are those whod disagree with me.

Those are the ones Ive heard all of. Ive heard a lot of songs offa Piper, and theyre quite good, Id rate them either between Animals and Meddle or Animals and Saucerful. See Emily Play is nice.

[KEALYBOY]

Wish You Were Here

[piggyman18]

Wish You Were Here
More like Wish You Weren't Here.

[tophizzle]

More like Wish You Weren't Here.

More like Wish You Were Bent Over In A French Maid Costume.

[Mount_Happy]

I think you mean "Another brick in the wall [Part 2]", unless you were being sarcastic.
wow, the intelligence level of some people in this place never ceases to amaze me!

[the FLY]

pink floyd albums makes good beer coasters.
