- “Wish You Were Here” (Wish You Were Here, 1975) Feels kinda wrong, doesn’t it? To have a relatively straightforward ballad as the crowning achievement of one of history’s greatest progressive rock bands — it’s sorta like putting “Patience” at the top of a Guns N’ Roses list, no?
- “Run Like Hell” (The Wall, 1979) Not like it’s surprising that nobody ever thought to combine the strengths of Chic and Rush before Pink Floyd, but the fact that Floyd did, and came up with The Wall‘s side-four highlight in the process, is forever one for the top of the band’s resume.
- “Us and Them” (The Dark Side of the Moon, 1973) Dark Side’s crown jewel, a slow-burning sway built around a softly flaring Gilmour riff and radiant Hammond organ from Wright.
- “Comfortably Numb” (The Wall, 1979) The ultimate in Pink Floyd as classic rock titans, an absolutely towering power ballad where both elements of that phrase feel individually and collectively insufficient to appropriately summarize the song’s might.
