This is absolutely amazing but where in the devils name is the solo?

@FranzJosefHidin I agree. Gilmour is no Phil Collins (minus Gabriel era) heading off into commercial land. As I recall, when Gilmour joined Floyd, he was the "new guy" who knew about songwriting, and thus the influence on their post experimental work. This great combination was the magic which made Pink Floyd fly to the Dark Side of the Moon and beyond. I see Waters as bickering about the singer getting all the attention, I don't know why, cuz he can hold his own. Same old story with bands.

i used to sing this song to the twins when i would change their diapers. they would stop crying and stare it me. as they grew and i sang at bath times, or potty times and bed times, they started singing with me by about age 1 and a half. all songs like this. i sang this song to them the last time i saw them. they were 2 and a half. both in my arms staring up at me as i sang, trying not to cry. thank you dave.
i miss you my babies. will always miss you.

@FranzJosefHidin i prefer the division bell and on an island but prefer a momentary laps more then the wall. the wall was misery dark while laps was interesting dark. with music that melts the heart on onthe turning away or music that pulls one down into the depts of the himan mind with sorrow. music depts that where not reached with the wall though the wall did have its moments. the drpts that dave reaches with his solos are only those reachable by pure emotion.

Amazing but oh no...he left off the best part

Seem to me. Seem to me. It was a great interpretation.

Beautiful. Brings tears to the eyes.

The perspective you touched is true.Even though I believed they were complementary to each other,soemtimes changes have to be made .Roger is definitely the master of lyrics,however I find Gilmour's music ...the kind which digs in your senses to bring out the best in you.His music is that of high hopes and will constantly echoe in the bells of history!Long live David Gilmour

I'm sick to death of people saying Gilmour is a second fiddle to Waters or Barrett. Gilmour is a unique and amazing talent and can write about more than angst and childhood regrets. Nothing against Waters, but I thought the new direction taken on 'Momentary Lapse' was a breath of fresh air. Floyd Mach 3 is just as viable as any of the older stuff and it reached a whole new audience with it's fresh, positive perspective. Long live David Gilmour!
