Re: Best song on "The Wall"

'What shall we do now'?

I know- how about we post an original thread that hasn't been done to death... or, how about, if we inadvertantly do so, we DO take the hint and DON'T perpetuate it?

Re: Best song on "The Wall"

"The Wall" sends a clear and definite message that the ability to teach others out of enforcement must require more than a diploma.
And regrettably, those days in England, not only was the hiring of teachers fundamentally based on schooling degrees, it was the ruler that served teachers as an enforcement of their allegedly well-deserved authority.
Ultimately, pupils might know division and multiplication properly, but when recalling the learning of that, they'll remember being snapped by a ruler and more of such unpleasantness.
What they won't recall is being reminded of the importance of what's learnt, the value of the educational acquisition and how beneficial it will become to one day.
Not being told of such, resentment might be developed to subjects such as division and multiplication. All concluding to nothing more than a bad imprint on one's book of life.
So, not only was the impartation of such elements as division and multiplication disrupted by inadequate education. The understanding of the meaningfully beneficial use of what's learnt was prevented by such cold, harsh means as the overly-blindly used action of snapping a pupil with a ruler.
Still, one mustn't forget that those harsh means were used by teachers because of the mistaken belief that it made pupils understand how and why they should use what was imparted.
Nevertheless, it does not justify the severity of this problematic teaching, but does indicate that those mistaken and perverse beliefs were a simply, yet torrentially contentious mistake.
A mistake that had been fortunately repaired, striven by such individuals as the Pink Floyd, who shortly clarified those days' teaching errors in their song.
A song I completely comprehended, despite living in a decade in which those indicated errors have been almost completely diminished.
Adjacent to the comprehension of the song, I strongly feel that a pupil should be generally contented with school, and be taught of the importance of his present doings- learning. Otherwise, it can all just be a waste.
And so we must keep strive to overcome further remaining complexities in our educational system. And I believe there's nothing quite more considerable than one's strivings.
And I, a present pupil will try as much as respectively possible to guarantee a better educational system for my future generations.
The Pink Floyd, as well as many others, had proven that such improvements are possible to achieve, if are genuinely striven.

Re: Best song on "The Wall"

What the fudge!? :o

Ok, your dissertation has accounted for Another Brick in the Wall, Part 2, so are we to assume this is what you think is the best song on THE WALL?

The ruler snapping may have been cruel but I guarantee you those snapped WILL remember their multiplication and division, if not the rest of their lessons.

I presume you're an advocate of the current laissez faire attitude to students and children in that nothing should be done to diminish their self esteem...even to the exclusion of demanding respect for the esteem of others.

And excuse me, but I am pretty good with most of the big words you used, but what the hell is "torrentially contentious" supposed to mean?

Oh btw, welcome to the boards.


p.s. Could the glorious Mod Squad please move this ill-placed thread to it's more appropriate location? I mean The Wall under Syd Barrett Solos?

Because you also knew that you're one of the few people who think it's "the second most overrated Floyd song".

For the record I, too, would say Comfortably Numb.
