I'm not sure what to do here. Absolutely Curtains, I suppose.

 

[DaveC]

Mudmen.

 

[Zoots]

Oh man, Mudmen is beautiful!

Absolutely Curtains can go.

 

[phanan]

Haven't listened to this one in a while. I need a refresher first.

 

[GibsonGirl]

LOL, this is easy.

Bye, Absolutely Curtains. You're one of the worst Floyd songs ever recorded!

 

[LemonMelon]

I dunno...I haven't listened to this thing in ages, and there aren't any terrible songs on it. I'll take Absolutely Curtains this time, because it doesn't really go anywhere.

Free Four rocks!

 

[Axver]

Could this be any easier? Goodbye, Absolutely Curtains!

 

[DaveC]

Having just listened to the album again, I wish I had waited. Absolutely Curtains deserved a unanimous boot.

MOST IRRITATING END TO A PINK FLOYD ALBUM EVER.

That it does! I love how the song sounds so upbeat and happy, while the lyrics are the complete opposite. "You are the angel of death! And I am the dead man's son!"

This album is lovely. I don't know why people are so indifferent to it.

 

[GibsonGirl]

Oh, and I simply cannot decide which song I want to win. Right now, I'm torn over Wot's...Uh The Deal, Free Four, Childhood's End, and Stay.

 

[cobl04]

What a ridiculous bunch of song titles.

Yeah, I'm glad I listened to it earlier, for the first time in a while, cuz Absolutely Curtains is just awful.

 

[Aardvark747]

It's curtains for curtains!

 

[GibsonGirl]

Nice, a resounding thrashing.
