A goos song i must say even better when done live. The duet on it's decent, always loved Pink Floyd duets so i loved this.

And the ay it goes from it to Stop, The Trial and Outside The wall makes for a very varied and obscure conclusio to the album.

In total agreement. :)

WftW is probably my favorite song off The Wall, except maybe for Don't Leave Me Now. I love that little bass riff right before "all you have to do is follow the worms," how it sounds like Roger's bass but Dave's playing style...anybody know which one plays that riff? It's the one-note tremolo thinger. Anywho, the songs rocks. It ends perfectly, building in intensity until it all just stops and goes right into, well, Stop.

It's a beautiful song, though I have one complaint: Dave's voice never really seemed to fit Pink's character at that point in the album.

Oh, I love WFTW, it scares the wit out of me, it's just amazing.
I like it on the movie, too. Powerful secuence, and what can I say, I'm a sucker for Bob Geldof, and I think he did great in his role of 'Pink', specially in the 'In the Flesh' secuence. I can scare my family with those scenes...
But the song (and movie secuence too) that really scares me and keeps me in awe everytime I hear it, is The Trial, definitely. I think it was the first track I memorized...

I haven't seen the movie yet but I like the album track a lot. It does a great job of building up to the climax of "The Trial." For some reason I always loved Gilmour's delivery of "Would you like to see Britannia rule again?" with the echo of the backing vocals and all.
