Not sure about this.


My thought is if you are wanting to sound like the pet shop boys, then work with them.. this sounds like someone attempting to be trendy remix on soundcloud.... A dance pop shift in sound would work for me, this track just sounds far to kitchen sink to me

Totally agreed. When I heard it I felt the urge to put on "Stars of Track and Field". I can totally get on board with "Your Cover's Blown" and "Electronic Renaissance". But this is just boring.

Don't get me wrong that funky little guitar bit at beginning signals the start of something fun, but it quickly gets lost into a neo-disco mess.. would dig hearing a Johnny Marr or Pet Shop Boys remix of it
T.Rex

A Momentary Lapse of Reason is my favorite Pink Floyd record.

Not a Floyd album.... read up on it.. Gilmour hired literally like 80 studio musicians to come up with something that would sound like Pink Floyd. Not even Rick Wright was an "official" Floyd member at the time

The Division Bell is my second favorite.  Would you like to discuss this one?

Why do you care so much what I like, at least to the point where you need to comment negatively on my choices?

A Momentary Lapse of Reason is my favorite Pink Floyd record.

Not a Floyd album.... read up on it.. Gilmour hired literally like 80 studio musicians to come up with something that would sound like Pink Floyd. Not even Rick Wright was an "official" Floyd member at the time

if your read Salman Rushdie's memoir, Joseph Anton, its hard to think too highly of Yusuf...I would never pay money to see him....of course, if you read Salman Rushdie's memoir, Joseph Anton, its also hard to think too highly of Salman Rushdie...

I think Meddle is my favorite now...Sort of overplayed Dark Side...

the first Floyd album might be my second favorite..

Not a fan of the Wall

I don't think one should get so touchy because its pointed out, correctly, that AMLOR is a forgery.

Top Cover Songs, according to the Brits:

http://www.avclub.com/article/british-voters-say-pet-shop-boys-had-best-cover-so-211069

That is good....

Their cover of Where the Street have no name is also really good....I think it segues into Can't Take My Eyes Off of you..

LOL

I dont know why you carried this to a second thread.

A Momentary Lapse of Reason RULES.

David Gilmour RULES.

I didn't want to clutter the Hey Seth thread....I think it should be left open for Seth stuff...like asking for shows or saying thank you

If you think A Momentary Lapse of Reason...

It is basically a David Gilmour album...Nick Mason hardly plays on it cause his drum chops were so pitiful they got other guys ..the usual session dudes (Keltner, etc.).. Rick Wright hardly plays on it (he wasn't even in the band!)... its Gilmour with studio musicians trying hard to sound like Floyd...... Why? Because Gilmour's solo career had been a bust so he had to go back to the "Pink Floyd" moniker...

To call it a Pink Floyd album is ridiculous.....

Sorry if I'm trampling on your heroes.... I'm not into fanboy shit.. its important to read about albums and learn about their history

You shouldn't feel insulted or anything.. plenty of people don't know the source of AMLOR and aren't able to hear its a forgery..
