Coming Back To Life is a great, fantastic song and I love it.

But High Hopes is undeniably the best here.
 
"It's a bit of jump isn't it? I mean Accountancy to Lion taming in one go. Don't you think it might be better to work towards lion taming gradually, say via banking or insurance?":wink:


Agree with Axver. I love Coming Back To Life, but High Hopes beats it into a corner.
 
"What you've got there is an anteater."

What I love is when he back tracks. "Maybe I will try banking first. Or stay in accountancy."

I have High Hopes.
 
High Hopes is by far the best post-Waters song.
 
High Hopes is probably the only song from the Post-Waters era that can justifiably be mentioned alongside some of the greats from the classic albums. I would encourage everyone to check out the live version from Gilmour's "In Concert" DVD - the stripped arrangement is stunning.

Agreed. It's a stunning song.
