I don’t think they would work today. People don’t have the patience for such slow-burning brilliance. Most wouldn’t get past the intro to songs like Shine On You Crazy Diamond today. They landed at the perfect time, when people would invest time in music, and were prepared to be challenged by music that didn’t deliver hooks every 20 seconds, and I believe the 1970s were the greatest years for classic rock.

@@MusicMatters_SC This has already been proved by science. What the researchers found is that harmonic complexity has decreased (making music sound homogenous), timbral diversity has dropped exponentially after peaking in the 1960s (meaning modern music is less deep and rich), and loudness has increased (which means that volume is now favored over sound quality). Such a shame. There are probably only a couple of genres still producing complex and rich music, like metal and country where musicianship is still valued.

He’s the ultimate champagne socialist. He also suffers from serious delusions of grandeur with regards to the importance and influence he thinks his own opinion has.

I know Roger definitely lip syncs for certain songs the past 10 years. Especially another brick for some reason. But he really does sing 85+ percent of his songs that he plays to this day.

At my show for that song.

True but there's still a longing out there for what a lot of people refer to as "good music."

If people think Taylor Swift is something special no Pink Floyd wouldn’t work today. If people have that bad of taste in music as thinking her albums are good they wouldn’t get it. I mean how many songs can you write about ex-boyfriends.

[@clansome]

Sorry have to vehemently disagree there. As someone who is a prog rocker, a heavy rocker, who is so greatful I grew up in the 70's as a teen. First 3 concerts were Hawkwind, Wishbone Ash and Argent. I was raised on Deep Purple, Led Zep, Black Sabbath. I saw Thin Lizzy, Blue Oyster Cult, Yes and Rush a couple of times. Never managed to see Floyd sadly, or Genesis for that matter, but I still loved the music and waited slavishly for every album to buy.But I didn't let my rock music roots blind me to other music. For instance the Carpenters back then were dismissed by myself and my mates as "Dad" music the sort of stuff he'd listen to on Radio 2, it is now only decades later that I realise how good that music is and how great a singer Karen Carpenter was, despite her mental troubles. I still love Floyd and all the music then now but I have widened it to include groups such as Marillion, Nightwish, Within Temptation and The Pretty Reckless. I also found myself listening to Taylor Swift, probably from the TV concert she did with Def Leppard back in 2008. She might lyrics and songs in a way that is completely alien to you but it does not make her music any less relevant. You have obviously never actually listened to her either, to say "how many songs can you write about ex-boyfriends" sums it up perfectly. There AREN'T that many actually. I think you would be very, very surprised at the number of folks that do actually listen to both rock music and Taylor Swift in the same way that I do. Some would say "what's a pensioner listening to Taylor Swift for?" I would answer "why the fuck not! we can live in the present and the past and enjoy each for what it offers and the memories".

[@MusicMatters_SC]

The music industry has changed drastically since Pink Floyd’s day, perhaps because of changing musical tastes or perhaps due to corporate machines that dictate musical taste through algorithms. Maybe both! But yes, Taylor’s ex made her a lot of money ha.

[@donwarnick1089]

You’re right on one aspect I haven’t listened to her music. Especially since her fan base is between the ages of 8-16. You see it as expanding your mind and opening up to different music. I see it as selling out to bubble gum sugar coated commercialized crap. By the way I like thousands of artists from The Beatles to Prince to Yes to Sade to Run DMC to Black Sabbath to Benny Goodman to Jack White. I like my music with less high school drama Taylor seems to bring to it. Things like Def leopard and Swift concert are just a contrived commercialization of what used to be good music. Brought to you by the same kind of folks that sell you hamburgers and the latest superhero movie.

[@clansome]

@@donwarnick1089 If you think her audience are 8-16 year old girls then you are very deluded and merely buying into what ever mainstream media says. She has amongst her audience not only 8-16 year females but males also as well as their parents and grandparents who first started going to see her 18 years ago. btw the Def Leppard show was for CMT, and is used as a way openning up Country Music listeners ideas to other forms of music. The trouble is YOU let your eyes do the listening not your ears. You may have once let your ears listened but are now so blinded and prejudiced by what others say that you have just become an echo chamber. Is she my favourite artiste, no, not by a long way, but we cannot forever live in the past. We are getting old, hold onto your memories sure, I do, but embrace new things, once you have listened to them properly. Music is like food, unless you've tasted it you don't know if you like it: you might not in which case just quietly move along. There's plenty of music old and new that I don't like but you wo'nt find me bitching about it here.

Waters was a great lyricist and ideas man but when it came to performance of what he wrote it was Gilmour/Wright's voices and Gilmour's guitar with "anyone can play bass", although Guy Pratt is a better bass player.
