| Best acoustic (more or less) Waters? |

| Well i'd say mother, though Dave sings the chorus and plays a very memorable solo. It's just such a rueful song, a mixture of love and remorse. |

| Grantchester Meadows but that was a hard one. As far a Mother is concerned, I really like the keyboards in that one, I seem to be drawn to that first. ~Andrea |

| Ouch...it's between "Mother" and "If" for me. Technically, "Mother" would only qualify as a half-accoustic song, what, with Dave's incredible solo (which, with the rest of the song, really makes it good). So considering that, "Mother" is disqualified, leaving "If." |

| I'd have to go with the little bit he improvised backstage in the opening scene of "In The Flesh: Live".. you know the one about the "trouser dick".. |

| That is quite a hard toos up between GM and If but If just clinched as I voted. |

| "If I were a good man, I'd understand the spaces between friends" Definitely "If" |

| Pigs on the Wing. Unequivocably. Especially with Snowy's electric solo in the middle. |

| I voted for "If". Mother doesn't really count for the reasons others stated - David's vocals are too much a part of the song for it to be an 'acoustic Roger'. If is a great tune - insightful lyrics, Roger doesn't try to ober-sing it. My 2nd-favorite song on AHM (behind the title track, of course). |
