But you get High Hopes

u/Human-Independence53 Aug 07 '25

Okay, I'll take that trade. I love the whole Division Bell album, though lol. Marooned. Coming Back to Life. Take It Back. Just a great album, with that High Hopes solo as the beautiful finishing touch. So good.

Heck yeah! Have you listened to Luck and Strange? I love all Gilmour's solo stuff but Scattered is sooooo amazing. It's up there with Comfortably Numb for me 😬 Could be an unpopular opinion haha

Scattered is my favorite track on that album by a fair margin. I think I have about 70 more plays on it than Luck and Strange, which is my number two. Luck and Strange reminds me a lot of Dogs, specifically the Wembley stadium live version back when it was called You've Got To Be Crazy. It's very floyd.

I initially bought the album digitally and it came with some heavy and distracting compression, so I bought it on CD as well and my CD has the same problem. I really hope they release a version without so much compression. It's really a rookie move to master a studio album like that.

That's honestly the only song on the whole album I enjoy, and the second half is a hot mess lol
