Three Weeks/It's a Record/Listened to Death

Post by Furious »

It ended 2 weeks ago now.

Roger Water's Amused to Death had been playing in my CD player on endless loop for 3 weeks

Whether i was in the room or not, it was playing.

Unfortunaltley, my power went off when my desk lamp lightbulb blew, and ive played the album now only a few time since.

It's a Record.



btw, I'm an Idiot.

It's funny, I don't think i could actually do it with most of the other albums i have, I'd get sick of them.

For some strange reason, I just can't get sick of Amused to Death.

Weird.

It's difficult to decipher. This is basically how it goes:

"In the light and visions of the issues of Stanley, we have changed our minds. We have decided to include a backwards message, Stanley, for you and all the other book-burners."

You get the idea...

Roger's vocal skills have really declined.

I think Rogers voice on ATD is great.. infact I think at times he sings quite brilliantly. 'Watching TV' for example..
Whereas on Pros and cons Rog sounds creepy and 'mumbly' at times - on ATD he sounds more clear.
Besides - it's the awesome lyrics and strong music which make 'Amused to Death' the masterpiece it is..

Each to his own though :lol:

I've noticed a lot of the same topics coming up again and again in "new threads" - yet this particular one is quite unique, obviously the original poster is a fanatic, and I go through periods of listening to too much floyd - now I don't feel so compulsive-obsessive (I was worried about all the Gilmour I've been listening to lately).

They come and go. I understand it annoys people sometimes, but I don't do it much, and they pass...I guess you have now contributed to it staying a bit longer, and now with my response, geez...but really...

Rather tha O:) n start a new thread, I will now ask, do any of you ever worry you're being overly compulsive or obsessive when it comes to Pink Floyd. Me, I do, yet some of you are definately MORE so.

I suppose I'm a bit obsessed. Though I used to be much worse. For 2 years straight I practically played my entire Pink Floyd collection every-day. These days I still listen to them almost every-day. Mostly I find myself listening to Animals, The Wall, The Final Cut, Wish you were here, and occasionally even AMLOR and The Devision Bell :o
