Pink Floyd has a lot of long songs, but can you name their top ten longest? Apparently, I couldn't. I Googled it and found this quiz: m.sporcle.com/games/dudemanbearpig/longest-pink-floyd-songsI got 75%, which isn't bad, but I still found it rather humbling (I missed 'Saucerful' and the Ummagumma tracks ). I got... 46% *braces for tomatoes*

I got 80%, I forgot the two post-Waters ones and somehow 'Alan's Psychedeccy Breccy' slipped my mind.

If anyone`s got 7000-9000 pounds to spare, you could be the proud owner of this.

I was watching this video And I was really bored, so I did a running commentary (with my amazing writing skills. ) So, here it is; *starts video* *looks at time stamp* "Good god! 9 minutes, ugghh." "Wow, David's hot." "That statue has NO NOSE!" "Nick drums like how I feel watching this." "Beards must be so awesome" "Oh my god! Dust! It's so cool how its swirling around and swishing. Groovy." "I really wish this was over." "Geysers! I love geysers!" Oh great, here comes the billion minutes of boring guitar wizardy." Wow, what great editing." "Oh wow, look, amplifiers. So awesome." "Shoot me." "How did they get all that stuff into that place?" "Aaahhh, it's almost done!" "Oh, damn me, there's a part two, feck." *clicks on part two* Yeah, okay I was really bored.

I've been learning the 'Comfortably Numb' solo. It's really difficult -- it's a really long and meandersome solo and there are so many bits to remember -- but SO WORTH IT.

I found this video yesterday: One of the world's biggest Pink Floyd fans, eh? It's good she didn't say she's the world's biggest Pink Floyd fan, 'cause that title probably goes to Loony.

Not sure where else to put this, but it's absolutely gold. I love to see those two chaps together... I think Rog and Nick were probably closer to each other than any of the others -- must be a rhythm section thing. {Spoiler} I'd ship them, but their noses are too pointy. just kidding

^^^ Aww. The bit at the end where they're talking about the Hans Keller interview with Syd and they remember exactly what he said... *sniff*

I took it again today and got 100%. If you put all the parts of 'Shine On You Crazy Diamond' together it's the #1 longest at 26:00 minutes, so 'Us And Them' is the fifteenth longest at 7:51 minutes. ...I'm thinking of creating a slightly psychedelic poster with the song titles and time-stamps in cool lettering.

I have no idea where else to put this, but #PinkFloydFriday is a thing on the Pink Floyd YouTube channel now and I'm happy about it. Every Friday they upload a new live clip from the Early Years archives.
