Great gig in the sky...

This must be the the best song ever made...
I've just learned to play it on the piano and I'm about to learn the steel guitar..

What do you think? I just love it.

You know, amazing and all. Tends to get a touch ordinary after the first 10,000 plays.

Still good, mind.

Share and enjoy!

Not one of my favorite Floyd tracks a bit waily and dull to be honest.

I used to hate the song (to be honest I hated almost all the songs on dark side the first time I heard it...but then I was 12 and stupid). Now I love it, it just fits so well in the album, the vocals are suberb. and yes it's very erotic indeed

The song sucks and it's not erotic.

(I love the rest of Dark Side though)

Re: Great gig in the sky...

HEY i recently learned it on piano too, its so good eh, especially the intro, that first B chord is soo dark yet beautiful in its context. Overall its one of my most fav songs, then any colour then breath then meddle and obscured by clouds stuff oh and summer '68 is great
