The Final Cut


The Post War Dream B Good song and lyrics
Your Possible Pasts B+ Throwaway from The Wall. It would have fit good. It is a good song.
One Of The Few A Good lyrics, but much too short
The Hero's Return B Don't like the beginning much, but it gets better towards the end. Still not one of this album's best
The Gunners Dream A+ One of their best. Excellent vocals and I love the lyrics. Very similar to the Final Cut in my opinion.
Paranoid Eyes B+ Good lyrics, but not much else but singing
Get Your Filthy Hands Off My Desert C+ Not my favorite, but it provides variety. A little faster tempo than other songs on this album
The Fletcher Memorial Home A Fletcher is Roger's father's middle name. This song sounds like it would fit good on the wall. Is it just my imagination or does the fletcher memorial part sound a lot like the end of the soft part on One Of My Turns?
Southampton Dock C+ Not a real great song. Gets better towards the end and leads nicely into the next song with the last words being the final cut
The Final Cut A+ The Best One On Here. Excellent vocals by Roger, his best ever in my opinion. Written about Roger's attempt at suicide which he could never carry out.
Not Now John A A great surprise after ten mellow songs to hear Gilmour shouting "Fuck all that" at the beginning. Good vocals and just a nice break from the rest of the album
Two Suns In The Sunset A+ Album finishes on three straight high notes. Kind of a depressing song. Once again good vocals and lyrics by Roger


Pink Floyd's most highly criticized album. Some don't like it, but it is one of my favorite albums. It is essentially a Waters solo album. I guess Waters fans really like it, and if you are a Gilmour fan it might not be so appealing, but Roger has great vocals throughout the album so I love it.
