About this Artist

Editorial Reviews

The second post-Roger Waters Pink Floyd album is less forced and more of a group effort than A Momentary Lapse of Reason -- keyboard player Rick Wright is back to full bandmember status and has co-writing credits on five of the 11 songs, even getting lead vocals on "Wearing the Inside Out." Some of David Gilmour's lyrics (co-written by Polly Samson and Nick Laird-Clowes of the Dream Academy) might be directed at Waters, notably "Lost for Words" and "A Great Day for Freedom," with its references to "the wall" coming down, although the more specific subject is the Berlin Wall and the fall of Communism. In any case, there is a vindictive, accusatory tone to songs such as "What Do You Want From Me" and "Poles Apart," and the overarching theme, from the album title to the graphics to the "I-you" pronouns in most of the lyrics, has to do with dichotomies and distinctions, with "I" always having the upper hand. Musically, Gilmour, Nick Mason, and Wright have largely turned the clock back to the pre-Dark Side of the Moon Floyd, with slow tempos, sustained keyboard chords, and guitar solos with a lot of echo. William Ruhlmann, All Music Guide

September 19, 2009: This cd is soothing and fun to listen to. I remember a lot of the tracks from my youth and it brings up memories from my childhood. Not all the songs are appropriate for children as it is adult material.

February 18, 2006: Pink Floyd had done it again, without Roger Waters, hit it big, and at #1 on the charts. This album will never be the same without Roger, but is a multi-colored release. It shimmers with beauty. My only criticism(s) is/are that some of the songs don't strike a cord with me. "Keep Talking", "Wearing the Inside Out", and "Take it Back" are some of the biggest bits of rubbish I've heard out of this group. All the ones I haven't mentioned off of this album are just superb. Their last number 1. Tremendous effort (with the exception of P.U.L.S.E., since it went #1, but that's a live album).
