Roger Waters is the worst part of Pink Floyd

"Andrew Lloyd Webber's awful shit / goes on for years and years and years .. ."
-- Roger Waters, "It's a Miracle"

Thanks blankfist. Glad to see more fans of Roger and this album out there.

For some reason I always think of that old commerical "I'd like to buy the world a Coke" when it comes to Roger Waters' music, but for some reason they always spit it out like cold medicine...

The best song by one of the greatest and most creative bands ever. Pink Floyd's music has a daily presence in my life. If you are a Floyd fan and do not own the DVD "Pulse" go buy it now. You will not be disappointed.

IMO, the loss of Roger Waters was not a great one. I prefer David's solo stuff over Roger's. Roger's sense of self importance and significance in the band was inflated. He felt that without him there should be no Pink Floyd. MLoR was done without Waters and is one of their best records.

that guy on the giant parade float with all the piercings was cool, looked like a Roger Waters moovie when i suffered the half could stand.....

Hi - don't know if you saw this, but it needs some love. Not my sift but good stuff

From Wiki:

The song's title character is a transvestite whose primary pastime is stealing women's clothes and undergarments from washing lines. Some believe that "Arnold Layne" was actually based on a real person, and that he routinely stole underwear from the mothers of Barrett and bassist Roger Waters during their childhood days in Cambridge.

However, despite finding a place in the Top 20, the song's unusual transvestism theme attracted the ire of Radio London, which deemed the song too far-removed from "normal" society for its listeners before eventually banning it from radio airplay altogether.

Producer Norman Smith wanted the band to re-record the Joe Boyd-produced song after they had signed up with EMI. While Waters and keyboardist Richard Wright were willing to do this, Barrett, on the other hand, was entirely satisfied with the existing studio cut, and argued against recording another version.

A black and white promotional film of "Arnold Layne" was made the same year, and featured members of Pink Floyd dressing up a mannequin before showing it around a beach. Recently, an alternative promotional film was unearthed, which featured the young Floyd goofing around in a forest and in front of a church. It is also the only known footage of Syd Barrett lip synching to the song.

Upvote, but this video is from the Pulse dvd which was taken from a 1994 concert (sans Roger Waters).

Written by Ennio Morricone.

Vocals by Roger Waters.

Guitar solos by Eddie van Halen.

This is one of my favorite songs.

I liked it for several reasons.

Ennio Morricone did the soundtrack.

Tim Roth is one of my favorite actors.

And the big reason was Roger Waters collaborating with Eddie van Halen for Lost Boys Calling.

The 2004 version wouldn't be good because from what I remember, Don Felder wasn't there playing. Without Felder, it's not the same. Just like Pink Floyd without Roger Waters isn't the same. Yeah, I know...the Eagles had many different line-up changes. But Felder is such a great guitarist.

Hey I wont fight you on the Roger Waters points.

Need Roger. This was good, but the G8 concert version of this song with Roger Waters was better, IMHO.
