Exactly the same, except I'd give it 5 stars. I was a teen when it was releases and it still does it for me today despite countless overplaying.

Time & Us and Them for sure, but following behind for now are Breathe (representing the first 2 tracks) and Brain Damage (representing the last 2, lol). honorable mentions go to the rest of the album as it is just a f**king classic, one of my top 3 favorite albums of all time!

Not the album I'd like to play most (there are 4-star albums which I play more often nowadays), but definitely a 5 star album in my book.

Time

The Great Gig in the Sky

Money

Us and Them

(with a honourable mention for Any Colour You Like)

Breathe
Time
Any Colour You Like
Eclipse

in order as they appear on the album, however Any Colour You Like is my favourite from this classic.

God only know how many copies of this I've had over the years, vinyl, cassette, cd, remastered cd and now the Immersion Box set. 5 at least.

To inspire discussion: what's so special about Us and Them? I've always found it to be incredibly boring and have never understood the love for it.

Time is number 1, followed by Us & Them and Brain Damage/Eclipse

I can understand your anger at me, but what did the horse I rode in on ever do to you?

Time
On the Run
Any Colour You Like
Brain Damage

But the album really does work best when treated as a single unit, so fragmenting it like this feels strange.

I felt mesmerized when I heard the organ intro; it's like a glimmering kaleidoscope in slow motion. And I like the work that was done on the backing vocals that sound like vibrant rays. And the piano solo was nothing like anything I've heard before at the time ... and it was followed by a saxophone solo! What a sequence! ... And I love the verse chord progression.

Just a great song. Every second of it is dark, accompanied by flashes of light that are music. Sounds jazzy.

I can't vote. For me it's a one track album Smile
