AMLOR -- the individual songs are more memorable. Also hit when many of us were in high school and thus old enough to see PF live.Just curious what the peanut gallery thinks. Which album will have more songs on the countdown . . . The Final Cut or AMLOR?

I know its early but Final Cut is already picking up spots in the countdown. AMLOR is going to need to to hit the board with some of their weaker stuff, think Final Cut will take itBased solely on my picks AMLOR by farJust curious what the peanut gallery thinks.

Samesies. Did we just Tinder?I have 2 Final Cut vs 0 Momentary
I wouldn't have a Final Cut tune in my top 95% fwiw. It's awful.I agree it will probably be AMLOR over The Final Cut - more accessible songs on the former IMO.
I don’t think it’s awful, although among my least favorite albums. Only picked one from AMLOR.I wouldn't have a Final Cut tune in my top 95% fwiw. It's awful.I agree it will probably be AMLOR over The Final Cut - more accessible songs on the former IMO.
I have two, and two just missed. I have one pretty high, but its NOT flying.I don’t think it’s awful, although among my least favorite albums.

I expect the first AMLOR single you mentioned you liked to do well.AMLOR came out when I was a kid, before I actually got into Floyd. I really liked the first single.......if you asked teenage me I'd have said I liked AMLOR better than The Final Cut.......now, I'd probly go with Final Cut but not by much. Neither are great Pink Floyd albums for different reasons.
For this I think FC has more entries and we will see them all very soon. AMLOR will have a couple higher scoring ones though I bet.
I didn't do a list, but if I had, one song from The Final Cut would have been on it.I wouldn't have a Final Cut tune in my top 95% fwiw. It's awful.I agree it will probably be AMLOR over The Final Cut - more accessible songs on the former IMO.
On my list it would be a tie but my sense is Momentary Lapse in a landslide.Based solely on my picks AMLOR by farJust curious what the peanut gallery thinks. Which album will have more songs on the countdown . . . The Final Cut or AMLOR?
So basically the Final Cut = Pats and Eagles fans? I don't hate them, just don't find them to be a pleasant listening experience.I didn’t pick anything from AMLOR or Final Cut. But if I ranked everything and added up scores for all albums, AMLOR would rank higher than Final Cut by a lot.
I don’t hate Final Cut to the same extent as PIK — likely no one does — but with the exception of one song, I don’t find it to be a pleasant listening experience at all.
I'm really surprised that SO MANY people took the cheese on The Final Cut / AMLOR question, the answer was pretty obvious.On my list it would be a tie but my sense is Momentary Lapse in a landslide.
To be fair I own the album and I don’t think Ive ever actually listened to it in entiretyI would rather listen to William Hung doing She Bangs on repeat, then play the Final Cut once. Seriously.

I said we have a road paved with nothing but dreck for the immediate future. AMLOR really only has 6 fully developed songs on it. The rest are entirely or mostly instrumentals (ie, filler). More people liked the core of the AMLOR songs. But there were WAY MORE outliers that came from TFC. Final tally, AMLOR 5 songs, Final Cut 9 songs.
I originally had this in my top 25, but made the cutting room floor at the end. Still really like it though.#89-T - A Saucerful Of Secrets from A Saucerful Of Secrets (1968)

I cannot criticize others for submitting list because I couldn't set an order with 5 thru 20, but I will be hypocritical anyway and say this belongs much, much higher. Sure, ultimately my fault!Back to The Wall next to see if anyone can remember an 8-line, 95 second song.

That's the right song . . . your comment that it belongs much, much higher is what surprised me. Not sure how much higher it would be . . . almost every song from The Wall made the list. What bandwidth would you guess it might rank?

The show must go on was already listed and has more than eight lines
Outside the wall is a bit longer and has too many lines
The Happiest Days... is too long, too many lines, and maybe combined anyway
Empty Spaces is too long time wise and too few lines
Stop is only about 1/3 of 95 seconds
Part III could be a candidate depending on how you count the 7 lines, but a bit too short
Bring the Boys back home is close (and the comment would still apply) but only four lines
That to me, unless I'm forgetting something from the movie (which were usually longer) only one 8 line, 1:33 (on my copy) song left. I also took the "remember" as a clue. Does anyone else in here feel the way I do?
For me it is top 15. I'd have expected top 50 for list since it never really had airplay. But as a song it just rips you apart with its sentimental arrangement simultaneously expressing the bitterness of betrayal and commenting on the gall of any optimism at the start of any war. I could only guess what this song would have been like during the Invasion of the Malvinas. And then you get the next song.That's the right song . . . your comment that it belongs much, much higher is what surprised me.

Back in the day, I would have agreed with you. I still do, but I got away from playing albums / CD's years ago. Almost all my music is in folders on computer . . . meaning I practically never listen to full albums anymore. I listen to individual songs (normally on shuffle play). I agree that makes the short in duration table setting and mood driven toss in's on The Wall hard to listen to as random standalone songs. They don't link anything, and they aren't a lead into anything either.Joe is my alter-ego and I am kind of surprised Vera didn’t make it higher. BFS makes my case for me spot on. The plaintive call to a now missing Vera is the gut wrenching equivalent to where have you gone Joe DiMaggio. As with many Wall songs this songlet works magnificently as part of the whole and makes me continue on each time I hear it.
I deleted a similar reference before posting my reply. Vera Lynn in '78-''79 the person was not really forgotten or no longer visible (I think she had just released an album.)the gut wrenching equivalent to where have you gone Joe DiMaggio.
Oh I get that but it’s the wail for the time Vera represented that’s missing and that to me is just as affecting.I deleted a similar reference before posting my reply.

Funny, I once wrote on here that The Final Cut holds a special place as it was the first (and really) only Pink Floyd album I heard as an album before I had heard countless times the songs that got airplay. So I knew Another Brick (as well as the "long version"), Run, Young Lust, Comfortably Numb, and Hey You pretty well before I heard the whole album. So for me this kind of reverse. Not counting where someone else programs the listening choices, I seldom listen to any part of the Wall as a single song. I might not listen to the whole album, but I'll always listen to at least three or four songs in succession. And other than Crack the Sky, I probably listen to Pink Floyd more than any other group.Back in the day, I would have agreed with you. I still do, but I got away from playing albums / CD's years ago.

Same problem I had with picking The Wall songs among my top 25. Numb is clearly there, but I went in other directions for the rest of my list.The Wall is so hard to break into individual songs. I like Vera, but as part of the collection of songs leading into Comfortably Numb. They're kinda all linked together in my mind. That said, I've got one of those on my list as well.
I guess I truncated my post. What I tried to say was Vera Lynn the person wasn't lost, Vera Lynn the idea of "some sunny day" was.Oh I get that but it’s the wail for the time Vera represented that’s missing and that to me is just as affecting.I deleted a similar reference before posting my reply.
