1 stars A Waters who wants to change a cult album, what does that mean???

1. Speak to Me cools the heart, more ambient, serenity... bam a voice that breaks... the atmosphere, I haven't gotten used to it for a few days 2. Breathe (In the Air) for the bird's voice, meowing in the distance... but that's all, yes taken up and lacking in creativity, the height of it, me who hoped to be able to decry those who... criticized 3. On the Run again Roger with his voiceover, a regret... this cuts the original, but perhaps this is precisely his choice... the sound behind it hurts to be thus in the background, this voice Ok for 'The final cut', but hey it's over we have to evolve! In short, at the moment when you imagined the guy running and panting, there you have nothing left to imagine, castration, the other side of the musical effect 4. Time... ah I just found a positive effect, the sequences are easier in this repeat, this redux! Well otherwise what is the point seriously? The distant air of TDSOTM without the reference musical score; an ersatz that's the right word, an ersatz poorly re-duplicated and poorly reproduced, a lament for a profuse Alzheimer's demented perhaps, I'm looking for what went through his head...I listened to repetitions of it , covers, re-chewings of TDSOTM, raped, housed, synthesized, electronified, heavyfied... we could understand a little the commercial or other goal, but there, ah yes the Cello which hums but it's little... well something good about the chirping bird, yes I'm hanging on to the branch! 5. The Great Gig in the Sky go for those who will love that dull schizoid voice behind you, that's too much; the title is just butchered, it takes me back to a YouTuber discussing the titles live... erm in phrasing for the only solution!

6. Money that I was waiting for, yes, I said to myself, come on, wait, you'll see, it's going to go down... well, mono from mono, not the group that plays on atmospheres, here it's flat from the wave at the level of the mouth of Mt St Michel; disappointment; your monotone and mono...lithic to make you wake up a witch near Stonehenge! 7. Us and Them follows, well I fear even more and here the exception, a title which comes closest to the original, we feel the emotion, the waiting, the latency, the organ is good highlighted; good for those who were waiting for female voices in heat (yes we could write it before!!) there it is rake, nada finally you see!!! 8. Any Color You Like for the return to the phrasing title which pollutes the origin, period! 9. Brain Damage follows, well since it was air modolo there it goes; the height of it would have been for Roger to release a punk tune on us to erase the original tune; most wind instruments 10. Eclipse now to go all the way; once again the serious narration breaks the original air, the prog blood which was flowing freezes, the slightly grandiloquent atmosphere frankly fades, this narration erases and pollutes more than it brings originality.. . I wait for the heart, much too far away, much too outdated! (1.5)
