That's 3 for 3 and 6 points Kenny :) .

When I was 14, a schoolfriend of mine submitted the complete lyrics to "Wish You Were Here" to the English teacher as his own "poetry project". The teacher, not having heard of Pink Floyd, thought it was fantastic and read it out to all of us in class the next week.

"I'd like to read something out to all of you that Tim has written. It's one of the most outstanding pieces of writing I've seen in 20 years of teaching.

So

So you think you can tell

Heaven from Hell...

...come on, what are you laughing at there at the back? Come on, share the joke boy or get out!"

Hi PF4Eva

3 and 6 are correct and the album is correct for 7 but - aha! - you've gone for the wrong track. Have another go, be my guest!

Written By: PF4Eva on 07/15/03 at 04:16 p.m.

#7 is Sheep from the Animals album. I tired to edit my last post, but no luck.  :-/

I even HAVE Animals and I find it embarrassing to make a goof like that.  :-[

Hey, something just clicked in my slow and aged brain...does the "PF" in your name refer to Pink Floyd!?

Sure does! I went with the name because it's short, easy to remember, and it's the only screenname I have ever used on any website. Their songs changed my life when the only rock band I knew of was Styx.

No, that one isn't #2 but that song does appear in the quiz.

#2 has no articulate words in English at all. It's sung by a woman, if that helps.

...and Mordor got the album. I can't say that I'm a big fan of "The Final Cut", and I've never even heard "The Division Bell". I must be a lot older than you Mordor - when I was younger and wasted we listened to Dark Side Of The Moon!
