P ink Floyd’s the Wall is one of the most intriguing and imaginative albums in the history of rock music. Since the studio album’s release in 1979, the tour of 1980-81, and the subsequent movie of 1982, the Wall has become synonymous with, if not the very definition of, the term “concept album.”
It follows the story of a rockstar named Pink which due to his problems with drugs, sex, his mother, his wife, and making music drives him closer and closer to insanity where by The Trial he's just crazy, but when it gets to the last song, Pink is pretty much Roger.
The Wall is a rock opera [28] that explores abandonment, cycles of violence, and isolation, symbolized by a wall. The songs create a storyline of events in the life of Pink, a fictional rock star based on Waters and Pink Floyd's former frontman Syd Barrett.
As with so many Pink Floyd songs, “Goodbye Blue Sky” illustrates that the ostensibly simple can be deceptively complex. Halfway through the song, the multi-voiced narrator sings how “The promise of a brave, new world / Unfurled beneath the clear blue sky” – a lyric that, at first glance, seems nothing more than well crafted.
