Some Pink Floyd references in unusual places

Post by Sentience »

I found it unusual for rapper Eminem to be referencing Pink Floyd in his work, but here's Smack That from 2006 featuring PULSE bass turned right up; and then there's Space Bound from 2010 featuring PF's signature heart beat.

Feel free to post PF references or covers from bands we don't usually associate with PF.

Progressive metal band Dream Theater has covered Dark Side of The Moon in it's entirety, along with a few of the signature Floyd tunes like Comfortably Numb, Hey You and Echoes. I found their covers varying from great to awful. Basically they did great on DSOTM, but everything else sucked.
Their keyboardist is one of the best in the business, he did a decent job on On The Run and Any Color You Like, IMO.
