Billy. Pink Floyd - "Set The Controls For The Heart Of The Sun"

Interested in your choice of Billy.

 

[por_please_ya]

Interested in your choice of Billy.

Almost ten minutes of a song can be draining especially when it's Pink Floyd. They are a brilliant band but not for everyone.

You're not Ocha905

 

[por_please_ya]

You're not Ocha905

I know but I'm telling you why I nearly billied it lol

 

[Ocha905]

Interested in your choice of Billy.

I get Pink Floyd are pioneers and musical geniuses but crikey that particular song was so pretentious. A 10 minute equivalent of dudes wanking in front of a mirror. I happy for those that connect with it but it's not for me.

 

[JHF1870]

Ive nrver had an issue with length of song. The longer ones often offer a wide range of feelings i initially had your song out of the votes but loved it the more I listened to it

Dinsdale

I reckon I gave 5 votes to a 15 and 18 minute song before

 

[JHF1870]

Riviat. What was that 18 minute song you nommed

 

[Loonerty]

I nommed King Gizzard's The Dripping Tap once and came 8th

 

[JHF1870]

I nommed King Gizzard's The Dripping Tap once and came 8th

Theres Ularu Rock by Earthless which won. I wanted to nom it. 14 minutes. Given the sentiments I doubt we will see an 18 minute song again hey Ulahoopski

Ocha905 reviewing a Pink Floyd masterpiece:

 

[Raveneyes]

17 noms in so far. I've replied to everyone.

From artists who have surprisingly never been a part of the SC, to some "unheard" gems that should go well.
Playlist looking pretty good so far.

Keep 'em coming.

AEDT aka NOW aka Eastern fake time

 

[Raveneyes]

any 18 minute songs?

Surprisingly short noms so far. Apart from the epic 27 minute piece in there. Written by Scorcese I think.

Depends if people wanna cater to the Twitter generation.
