Maybe "Smell The Roses" isn't the lead single, but more of a taster. (Besides most albums these days have the lead single as the second or third track)
So how does "Smell The Roses" hold up beside the lead singles from his previous albums? (Thanks Wikipedia!)
And yes, I included When The Wind Blows.
Decided against "Another Brick In The Wall Pt.2" from The Wall Live In Berlin and anything from "Music From The Body".
What's that? You think they would swing the vote? Oh it's on now!
Oh, Wiki says "Smell The Roses" IS a single.
OK, so I'll also include To Kill The Child/Leaving Beirut and Hello (I Love You)!
Let voting commence!

...and Going to live in L.A.? (a b-side of a lead single). A great song!
The best one anyway is Leaving Beirut (minus the silly "prosciutto-risotto" stuff).

Well I was going to leave off "Music From The Body" as no singles were released from it.
But yeah, "Chain Of Life" is the better of the Roger strummed tracks.

This is refreshing. Not a Waters vs Gilmour thread, or Waters vs Barrett, or Waters vs Storm, or Waters vs Pink Floyd, but Waters vs Waters. Finally getting right down to it. This should have been the concept of his new album right here. Sort of like Quadrophenia.

"Each Small Candle" is the best song he has released as a solo artist IMO.
