Masterpieces and popular songs by Pink Floyd

Let me introduce songs by Pink Floyd, a rock band from the United Kingdom.

Pink Floyd performs in a style that blends psychedelic rock, blues, and folk, operating in a genre often referred to as progressive rock.

Their floating, atmospheric sound is particularly striking.

It’s said that the band’s formation was sparked when three of the original members, who were attending architecture school, got into a heated debate about contemporary music.

Now, please enjoy Pink Floyd’s songs with this playlist.

Pink Floyd’s masterpiece The Dark Side of the Moon, a worldwide success, was released in March 1973 and continues to captivate countless listeners as a towering landmark of UK rock.

The band’s ensemble playing radiates overwhelming taste and precision, and the lyrics—at times sharply criticizing greed and materialism in capitalist society—remain as powerful as ever.

The album has sold over 50 million copies worldwide and set an astonishing record by staying on the U.S.

Billboard 200 chart for 962 weeks.

Its grand soundscapes transcend the boundaries of progressive rock, making it a gem that every music lover should hear at least once.

The Beatles and the Stones became the biggest bands in the world with three- or four-minute songs, while Pink Floyd composed rock suites over 20 minutes long and earned the highest acclaim.

Both are rock, but it needs no explanation which one is more removed from reality.

Above all, the latter-half guitar solo stands out.

Combined with the stage production, the visuals make it crystal clear how the emotions gradually swell.

Despite being a long track, the build-up from the start to the guitar solo is so good that you can keep listening without ever feeling bored.

Between Two Points (with Romany Gilmour)David Gilmour

This is a gem-like ballad featuring Pink Floyd’s David Gilmour performing with his daughter, Romany.

Released in June 2024, the song is a cover of a track originally put out by The Montgolfier Brothers in the late ’90s.

It’s a beautiful production where David’s characteristically refined guitar sound blends perfectly with Romany’s crystalline vocals.

Themes of disappointment, betrayal, and the loss of trust are portrayed with delicacy, conveying the process of overcoming hurt and accepting reality.

The track is included on his first solo album in nine years, Luck and Strange.

It’s sure to move not only Pink Floyd fans but music lovers of all kinds.
