I prefer LFW and CBTL, but other than them t's the best song on TDB IMO.

"Forever and ever" what a way to end an album and a career. To think they went from Arnold Layne to that is just so weird, who could have prediced such a change in diretion?

Not forgetting the Comfortably Numb guitar solo here. That gives me a high. Stunning! :shock:

The version from PULSE is the best! And who says Gilmour can't write good lyrics!

Yes, these two songs are great. And Lost FWords...man what a GREAT song too! The Division Bell surely is Gilmours best work after Roger left the band. :D :D :D :P
