 Topic: Best Pink Floyd Epic/Mini-Epic

A Saucerful of Secrets from Ummagumma is my favorite, that song alone is worth purchasing the album. I am breathless at the end of the live album because of that song.

We got to pump the stuff to make us tough
from the heart
Its astart
What we need is awareness we cant get careless
Mental self defensive fitness
Make everybody see in order to fight the powers that be

echoes, echoes, echoes...this is a brilliant song and defiantely the best "epic" by pink floyd in my opinion...but i feel compelled to name my runners up...:
2. Shine on you crazy diamond
3. Pigs (Three Different Ones)
4. Atom Heart Mother (this is an amazing song almost the whole way through but it gets a little drab near the end...but usually the climax more than makes up for it)
5. Dogs
6 DSOTM

God damn! Echoes or Shine on you Crazy Diamond! It really
depends on what sort of mood I am in. Soooo hard to
decided. However... I settled with Echoes... for now... >_>

Raw emotion, beautifull playing, wonderfully atmospheric. 'Shine on you Crazy Diamond'.

You actually have heard a part of Echoes- in Is There Anybody Out There, it has a bit of the echoes from Echoes playing low under the main music. I think it's after the second 'Is there anybody out there'

To me, it's Shine on first, but Echoes, the wall, AHM and all the animals songs are very close
