- Pink Floyd
- “Wish You Were Here” (Wish You Were Here, 1975) Feels kinda wrong, doesn’t it? To have a relatively straightforward ballad as the crowning achievement of one of history’s greatest progressive rock bands — it’s sorta like putting “Patience” at the top of a Guns N’ Roses list, no?
- “Run Like Hell” (The Wall, 1979) Not like it’s surprising that nobody ever thought to combine the strengths of Chic and Rush before Pink Floyd, but the fact that Floyd did, and came up with The Wall‘s side-four highlight in the process, is forever one for the top of the band’s resume.
- “Us and Them” (The Dark Side of the Moon, 1973) Dark Side’s crown jewel, a slow-burning sway built around a softly flaring Gilmour riff and radiant Hammond organ from Wright.
- “Comfortably Numb” (The Wall, 1979) The ultimate in Pink Floyd as classic rock titans, an absolutely towering power ballad where both elements of that phrase feel individually and collectively insufficient to appropriately summarize the song’s might.

- Paintbox. As the flip to 1967’s Apples And Oranges, the Wright-sung/written Paintbox fell between the cracks, but deserved better. Like the befuddled narrator – who “must admit I had too much to drink” – the song never quite seems to find its centre of gravity, lurching between ominously clattered acoustics and rattled drums.
- Childhood's End. The young Gilmour never had much confidence with lyrics, but the sci-fi novels of Arthur C. Clarke got his quill scratching, powering the high-water mark of 1972’s Obscured By Clouds and the last song written solely by the guitarist until A Momentary Lapse Of Reason.
- A Saucerful of Secrets. Roger Waters remembers A Saucerful Of Secrets as “a turning point. It gave us our second breath. It was the first thing we’d done without Syd that we thought was any good”.
- Fat Old Sun. Gilmour was convinced this Atom Heart Mother highlight had already been written, but he was wrong – it just felt like you’d known it all your life.
Aug 26, 2017 · Bill Wyman, a rock critic and journalist, has compiled a list of every official studio track by the legendary band, from "Julia Dream" to "Wish You Were Here". See his opinions, explanations and the top 10 songs according to him.
- Money. Pink Floyd - Money (Official Music Video) Few rock bands made as much money as Pink Floyd, so it was inevitable they'd have a few opinions on it ("Grab that cash with both hands and make a stash").
- Learning To Fly. Pink Floyd - Learning To Fly (Official Music Video HD) Pink Floyd survived the departure of their bandleader Syd Barrett after less than two albums, so maybe it was no surprise that they carried on after Roger Waters left the group in 1985.
- Arnold Layne. Pink Floyd - Arnold Layne (Official Music Video) Written by Syd Barrett, 'Arnold Layne' was Pink Floyd's first single and a perfect example of the more childlike nursery-rhyme side of psychedelia.
- Interstellar Overdrive. Pink Floyd - Interstellar Overdrive ('Pop 68') The literal and metaphorical flip of 'Arnold Layne' was 'Interstellar Overdrive', which alongside 'Astronomy Domine' saw Pink Floyd stretch their fingers and limbs for a lengthy psychedelic wig-out.
