Best tracks from The Final Cut: New remaster poll

This poll has indeed been conducted before.

However, that was before the remaster, and as you all know the album has changed with the new 2004 re-release out. Hence a new poll.


So, what are your favorite tracks from The Final Cut?

I was going to make y'all pick just one, but that's difficult to do on this album, so pick your favs.



For me, in order, it's:

1-Not Now John
2-The Final Cut (beautiful, moving lyrics)
3-Your Possible Pasts
4-The Hero's Return
5-When the Tigers Broke Free
6-The Post War Dream


Due to option limits I couldn't place Two Suns in the Sunset on here. Reply to the thread to vote for that one.

Re: Best tracks from The Final Cut: New remaster poll

I used to really like Fletcher Memorial Home but the rest of the album's grown on me more and that one's gotten boring (thanks to whoever put it on Echoes).

1. The Gunner's Dream
2. Paranoid Eyes
3. When the Tigers Broke Free
4. Your Possible Pasts
5. Southampton Dock

Actually they're all good but those 5 are my favourites. No, wait... my REAL favourite is Two Suns! Where is it...?

No room in the poll.


That's 1 vote for Two Suns then.

Re: Best tracks from The Final Cut: New remaster poll

Yeah, Two Suns is probably the best. But I voted for Fletcher and Your Possible Pasts.

Re: Best tracks from The Final Cut: New remaster poll

As I cannot be arsed to buy the remaster (Tigers is a lame addition and I have it already on Echoes), my choices remain the same: The Fletcher Memorial Home, The Final Cut and The Gunner's Dream are the only worthwhile songs in the album for me.

Possible Pasts is brilliant, but in truth it's all good. A tad too depressing in some places, however.

Re: Best tracks from The Final Cut: New remaster poll

This album, even if you hate it, has such a beautiful flow to it that I have always considered it as "one big track". I have never skipped past songs. It would be like putting on Echoes somewhere in the middle because you like a certain part. I can't do it.

I guess The Gunner's Dream is my favorite, and I think the addition of "Tigers" is wonderful (I am so glad they didn't just tack it on at the end, although it would have worked at the very beginning even better).

It would, but TPD is already such a brilliant opener.

Re: Best tracks from The Final Cut: New remaster poll

Well that's your opinion, not a very good one, but an opinion.

My top 5 are
1. The Gunner's Dream
2. The Final Cut (Would of been first but the guitar solo, tsk tsk tsk, Dave you can do better.)
3. Not Now John
4. Southhampton Dock
5. The Hero's Return
