It reminds of Halloween for some reason. And has some influence from 'The Wall' writing on the 'David Gilmour' part.

"erm...On an Island"

"Okay, let me run this one by you. How about if we have a picture on the cover of you......wait for it.....ON AN ISLAND !! "

Not much of an island is it,really? The Collins English dictionary defines "Island" as a MASS of land surrounded by water.Not really a mass is it,as such...Perhaps if the album was called "on a giant turtle" it would make more sense!

How come there is no cover on Dave's website?

What a strange cover, I mean to use the Geralde Scarfe-like style writing seems a bit strange - Something waters would do.

Rick's last album has by far the coolest solo PF cover (syd's Barrett is 2nd)...this Gilmour one, if it is the one we end up getting, is odd.
