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! ------------- Progrockdude |

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. ------------- Matt |

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. ------------- My other avatar is a Porsche It is easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle if it is lightly greased. -Kehlog Albran |

On The Run Time A Great Gig In The Sky Us And Them
Just a great song. Every second of it is dark, accompanied by flashes of light that are music. Sounds jazzy.

I refuse to pick my favorites for a concept album that's supposed to be listened to all the way through. (ok, Breath, Time, and Us and Them.)

Let's see... Breathe Time Money Us And Them But, seriously, the whole album is a genuine musical masterpiece despite it's popularity and the dozens and dozens of accolades it gets each year.

For me: - Time. - The Great Gig in the Sky. - Us and Them. - And Brain Damage / Eclipse. I really want to chean on this one and vote for this last two songs, since for me they don't sound complet if they are not together, and I wouldn't vote for any of them by themselves, for I would be unsatisfied if I heard one without the other... and then I wouldn't have a fourth song to vote for (well, perhaps Any Colour you like, if I really had to choose another one). And I wouldn't leave any of the other three out. |

'Time' and 'Us and Them' have always been my favorites from the album going back to when it first came out in my college days. ...though there isn't a bad song on the album imho.
But I rarely play it in it's entirety because it has been played to death on the radio and by myself and my friends.

| Any Colour You Like is just plain AMAZING !!! The way it bursts in after a 7 & a half minute bliss-fest is mind-blowing. The VCS3 synths are superb (no mini-moogs credited as far as I am aware). Live versions are twice as long and vastly different. Actually, many pre-album live tracks are different in arrangement. No better, no worse. Pretty amazing album no matter how many spins it gets...... |

| I didn't remember Any Colour you Like being so long... except for the live versions. Well, the only live versions I know are the one from Pulse (not particularly expanded, if at all), and the one included on the live version of the album from the new re-release, and ideed that last version is great. |

^ The 7 & 1/2 minute bliss-fest was directed at Us And Them. I have a version of Any Colour You Like on a vinyl that goes for almost 8 minutes. Great quality too !! |
