Never heard live versions of the other 2 songs though.

yet the live versions of Domino are much more powerful. Worth checking out the version from 'The Longs' ,turn the f**ker up loud and then watch your house shudderTongue
Agree and the version from live at Wembley Dvd is even better IMO

 
Imposiible for me making a comparison like that... kind of nonsense comparing completely different styles even talking about live shows, btw i would like to know what Gilmour and Collins' music have in common.

^ Yes, true. I have 'The Longs' on LP (and a long single LP at that) - it
and Domino is more intense but what I meant is that there's no room to stretch the piece out like Sorrow.
'In The Glow Of The Night' is quite excellent. And I've always liked the lyrics - for instance, some lines like these: Take a look at the mountains, take a look at the beautiful river of blood. And this - The liquid surrounds me, I fight to rise from this river of hell, I stare round about me, children are swimming and playing with boats......
Excellent. Shame most of the remainder of Invisible Touch doesn't have as much impact....

It's a good album indeed. Voted for Sorrow of course.

Sorrow. And that isn't even the best song on the album.

to take the place of the mud shark in your mythology...

Pink Floyd Sorrow

When he rides, my fears subside.
For darkness turns once more to light.
Through the skies, his white horse flies.
To find a land beyond the night.

Sorrow, which I still think is one of the finest Floyd songs ever.

Sorrow and Final Eyes.
I am currently digging:

Hawkwind, Rare Bird, Gong, Tangerine Dream, Khan, Iron Butterfly, and all things canterbury and hard-psych. I also love jazz!

Please drop me a message with album suggestions.

Sorrow is the pick of the bunch with this lot.
Domino is fine but very 'danceable'.
The Score is O.K. (I used to like the E,L,Powell album but not much anymore)
Final Eyes (same deal as above with Big Generator)

Sorrow is good but Domino is better.  Don't like that Yes album at all.

I recently got the ELPowell album (yep, 25 years late LOL) and find it pretty lame to be honest.

Voted Domino.

Domino by some margin. The track on ELPowell's album that might have garnered some votes is The Miracle.
