Beats the Hell out of some other tunes that wouldn't get get out of my head in the past ("Her name was LOLA!! She was a SHOWGIRL!!") If ever I see Barry Manilow on the street, that sumbitch better run.
Enjoy

That's a lot nicer than the one I stuck in my wifes head last night.

Just a great tune. Cool and easy, almost dream-like.

IF you are going to be infected with an earworm...THAT is a pretty good one ...
Just don't listen to Cher's Do You Believe In Life After Love ...shit, now I've done it to myself just by thinking it!

Dark side of the moon is mine and a hell of a lot of other peoples favorite album.
I think a lot of really good drugs were used when some of these great albums were created!
I love it here!

Dark Side of the Moon is tops - I recommend you check this video out - its from their performance in Venice and features the oh soooo very lovely Rachel Fury
Everytime I hear "My Favorite Things" by John Coltrane it gets stuck in my head for hours. In fact, just typing this post is going to have me humming it for a while.

Great song from a great album.

Haven't listened to that one in a long time; I have a Pink Floyd playlist and that song is not on it. Saw them touring Dark Side--before it became a stadium show. Very grateful

Saw a guitar strap today with that prism design on it. I am not worthy to wear such a strap.

My earworm is still stuck on TMats' "The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down". Love that song.

^^^^ Please, don't talk about Bryan Adams. We'll be better off
Now, any version of Fat Old Sun is good, especially this one.

Inspired by this thread, I pulled out "The Dark Side of the Moon" album and played it all the way through for the first time in decades. The last song on side 1 is this one, "The Great Gig in the Sky." There is a nice live version of this song out there and THREE wonderfully talented women share the vocals of the 3 movements of the song. I am posting the album version because one woman, Clare Torry sang ALL three parts.
There are conflicting stories about the recording of this track. Rick Wright wrote the music, and years later--following a lawsuit, Clare Torry was given co-writer credit for the song. Reportedly, Roger Waters said to her, "There's no lyrics. It's about dying – have a bit of a sing on that, girl."
