So I'm guessing the top 5 will be:

1. Echoes
2. Comfortably Numb
3. Wish You Were Here
4. SOYCD (parts I - V)
5. Dogs

We're having another poll after this one. It's for live Floyd releases. What do you think?

With 600 concerts in circulation, have fun (: (I know you meant official released, but... stop looking at me D: ) :p

Us and them at 9, I didnt realise how popular the song was. Dont think it would be in my top 100.
Got to admit though, i think the poll does really express how real hardcore fans rate the floyd as far as their best work.
I read most posts and i know I should really post more often on the forum in general but i wouldn't really want to repeat what someone else has said. Its a pleasure being involved in such a poll.

Time consuming but not difficult. I must admit I was looking forward to the finding out the top 5 songs.

Wow, I've got a lot to catch up with... missed a lot of posts in the last days. The only excitement that's left for me is about the order of the top 5
:(

I'm amazed by the big gap between 7) pigs and 6) time in the total of points each song got... but I can imagine thoses difference will get even bigger in the top 5 list.

Seabirds

I've only got this in a sheet music book. Does it exist as sound?

It's playing as background music in the More movie, though not very audible, but seems to be an interesting song. A good contender for the Floyd Anthology (if).

If someone took the dialogue out of the Seabirds Track and kicked up the recording volume, I'm sure it'd be a good song.

Final five? My guess is WYWH, SOYCD (I-V), Dogs, CN, and Echoes. If WYWH and SOYCD (I-V) are in the final five, it will make WYWH the only Full album on the top 30. Close behind will be Animals, which only has the Intro and Outro Pigs On The Wing omited and DOTM, which is almost complete too if you count Speak To Me as part of Breath and Eclipse as part of Brain Damage.

Can you tell that Im bored at work?
