Welcome to the Machine. I personally think Sheep is overrated. And for me, Us & Them and High hopes don't come close. And there's no good reason why I didn't go for One of these days, I just simply like WttM more.

This is tough, So I'm not voting for the track I think is best which is all relative, I'm voting for my personal favorite, Sheep. Although it could have been WTTM or Us & Them easily. Personally I have never found the big 3 (DSOTM, WYWH, Animals) to be overrated, And how anyone could say such a thing is blasphemy to me.

"Us And Them" is such a dreamy, relaxing song and my favourite FLOYD tune.

Choosing between Sheep and High Hopes was hard. In the end, Sheep signifies what Pink Floyd has accomplished better. Oh, and Animals is amazing.

I was never all that crazy about Sheep or One of These Days, even though I'm a Floydophile. Good but not great.
High Hopes is the best song I've heard without Waters, but....it's without Waters.
Us and Them is just beautiful. It's so beautiful I even liked it when Alan Parson's Project re-recorded it as Time.LOL
But I think Welcome To the Machine is unbelievable. I love the acoustic guitar, the vocals, the lyrics, the sound effects, and the synths. I think it's darn near perfect and I'm not quite sure why it isn't higher on the ladder in the minds of Floyd Fans. Too simple?

I picked "One of These Days".  First Floyd song I ever listened to, *sniff*.
