Every song on Animals is a 10/10, while WYWH has 4 10/10's and an 8.2/10(Welcome To The Machine). Though WYWH does have SOYCD, which is better than anything on Animals, I'll still have to go with Animals.

Re: Animals or WYWH?

To me, Animals is just more emcompassing of the world today. It is music with a purpose, a social outcry. While Wish You Were Here is a brilliant album, with Shine On as one of my favorite Pink Floyd songs ever, Animals, with Dogs, Pigs, and Sheep, gives a warning about what society could become. Animals is just a deeper album.

Re: Animals or WYWH?

Arg, this is a really hard one, and in fact, almost impossible. Maybe the hardest, after Dsotm and wywh, or dsotm and animals, haha I'd prefer not to think about that :P

The album that is growing on me the most, is clearly Animals, from beeing a good album to an Imortal one. But still, i just cant let wywh, shine on and have a sigar loose, they've just been with me for so long, and the fact that it was my really first PF album, just speaks for itself.

Shine on!

Re: Animals or WYWH?

Animals is definitely number one for me. Dogs is my absolutely favorite Floyd song of all time. It has everything that made them who they are. The concept, the lyrics, the riffs, the epic scope, Dave and Roger singing. It just can't be topped. Pigs is also quite a rocking song. Sheep's opening is one of my favs, Wright did an amazing job with it.

Re: Animals or WYWH?

Very difficult to choose.

WYWH has the melancholy and Animals the angst. Probably I'll like one or the other more depending on the mood I am. But, in terms of sound, I prefer Animals (I love the guitars in "Dogs", all of them).

Re: Animals or WYWH?

Animals. Wish You Were Here was great, but I go with Animals, very much like Animal Farm. Love the disturbing images created by Sheep —

What a surprise!
A look of terminal shock in your eyes
Now this is really what it seems
No, this is not a bad dream

Things like that. I've noticed that most of Pink Floyd's stuff you have to view as an album...melds into each other...Animals doesn't, really. I can look at each song on it's own. Dogs' guitar thing is awesome, too...

Re: Animals or WYWH?

Tough question! Both albums are my number 1 and 2 favourites from PF. I gotta go with WYWH by a hair. Animals is an incredible album as well though. I remember back is high school a buddy of mine burned both albums back to back on a single cd. Talk about a one two punch!

Just 'cause as an album, it's awesome from first note to last.
WYWH, IMO, is not as solid all the way through.


also the spitting incident on ANIMALS tour stop in Montreal led to my 2nd favorite PF album,THE WALL...
