Don't Leave Me Now

I personally thing this song is pretty funny because of how Roger tries to sing it. By trying to sing it really high it voice sounds like crap, and think it's pretty funny (I especially like the part where he sings "shredder"). So, basically, I wanted to see what you guys think and if any of you think the same as me.

Re: Don't Leave Me Now

I think it is pretty weak, but since it is easy to remember and sing, I often find myself doing just that.

By the way, welcome to the site.

I think that's definitely intentional, as it is supposed to be both harrowing and ironic. Kinda like how Rog always introduces "In the Flesh" with an over-the-top German accent.

Re: Don't Leave Me Now

Don't Leave me Now isn't meant to be a perfect sounding song that plays on the radio. It's meant to be a cry of agony and desperation and loneliness.

Re: Don't Leave Me Now

"The Wall" is not a collection of singles or separate songs, it's a narrative. If you separate the pieces they don't make much sense as separate songs in themselves (except from "Comfortably Numb", "Mother", "Hey You"...). "Don't Leave Me Now" works in the context of Pinky's breakdown showing how shitty his relationship with his wife has become.

I always thought it was a 'best of...' set. Why is it two CDs then?
