I've been listening to my old Pink Floyd albums in my car recently, so I thought I'd have a crack at a Pink Floyd lyrics quiz.

Song title and the album on which it was originally released gets you 2 points.

Limit 3 for now and as always no cheating please!

Ant

#6.Astronomy Domine? The Piper at the Gates of dawn?
#13. Pigs(Three Different ones)? Animals?
#18. Hey You? The Wall


Great quiz, I love pink floyd due to my dad. Animals and side 4 of the wall are my all time fav.

I was fortunate enough to see Pink Floyd in 1986 I think. Great Concert!

Hi again, Graham...always an entertaining quiz when you're involved!  ;)

#1. 'The Gnome' ('Piper At The Gates Of Dawn'  Absolutely terrific LP!)
#17. (Deep breath) 'Several Species Of Small Furry Animals gathered Together In A Cave And Grooving With A Pict' ('Ummagumma')
#19. 'Alan's Psychedelic Breakfast' ('Atom Heart Mother')

This looks like a great quiz, Graham, but I'm afraid I'm just not that familiar with Pink Floyd's lyrics... :-[

Karma to you, though, for doing it!  :)

All correct Ant, and the albums which you later added are also correct. 

#12 is "Wish You Were Here".  :)


Yep, that's correct ladybug, from the album of the same name (I'm sure you knew that!)

2. The great gig in the sky - Dark side of the moon
3. Breathe (the reprise part) - Dark side of the moon
8. Run like Hell - The Wall


Well done Frank, all correct  :). Particularly well done on #2, I wondered if anyone would recognise my transcript of the fantastic vocals by Clare Torry on this track.

#6.Astronomy Domine? The Piper at the Gates of dawn?
#13. Pigs(Three Different ones)? Animals?
#18. Hey You? The Wall


Good woork, all correct  :).


Great quiz, I love pink floyd due to my dad. Animals and side 4 of the wall are my all time fav.


Your dad has good taste little devil rider, I haven't started playing any Pink Floyd to my kids yet, I'll try some in the car later today!
Not sure whether my youngest will like it, her favourite band at the moment in The Jonas Brothers  ::).

#17. (Deep breath) 'Several Species Of Small Furry Animals gathered Together In A Cave And Grooving With A Pict' ('Ummagumma')

Thanks Karen, if you've never really listened to Pink Floyd then I would recommend doing so. "Dark Side Of The Moon" is probably a good place to start, a classic for all the right reasons.

Great quiz Graham!

#5....Free Four....Obscured By Clouds?

#7....Sheep.....Animals?

#11....Welcome To The Machine....Wish You Were Here?  


Thanks Kevin  ;D, your guesses are all correct.

A schoolfriend of mine, when we were aged about 14, submitted the lyrics of #11 to the school poetry competition. He was awarded first prize, until someone ratted on him to the English department!

Well done Frank, all correct  :). Particularly well done on #2, I wondered if anyone would recognise my transcript of the fantastic vocals by Clare Torry on this track.

The great gig in the sky is one of my favorite Pink Floyd songs. My wife can't stand it, she calls it "the crazy woman screaming "song

Oh, don't get me wrong...I love their songs!  It's just that I never really listened closely to the lyrics as the music always 'stuck out' more with me because it's so awesome!

And btw, I own a copy of Dark Side Of The Moon... ;)

#14 :The Nile Song- Soundtrack to the film "More"
#15 : Breathe - Dark side of the moon
#16: Not now John - The Final Cut
#20 Dogs - Animals

These are all correct Frank, thanks for finishing off the quiz  :).

I like Pink Floyd, was a pleasure

"Not Now John" was one song I couldn't play in front of my parents.  :)
