I don't get it why DSOTM is so popular.

You can't be serious. DSOTM is rated as one of the most remarkable albums of all time because every single song on that album is mind-blowing, and that includes On the Run (I don't care what anyone says, I find it psychedelically inspiring). Time, Money, Us and Them, The Great Gig in the Sky (my personal favourite)... they're all classic compositions. I mean, how can you not get absorbed by the amazing musical arrangement and lyrics when listening to this album? I don't know, maybe that's just me.

I think I've made my opinion on the subject clear, though Wish You Were Here is also a favourite, but I'll have to go with DSOTM just because I prefer the concept of shorter tracks / longer track list.

Have to go with Animals, it's the only one I have rated 5 stars in RYM.

Runner-ups (all those rated 4.5 stars) are:

More
Meddle (should probably be knocked down to a 4 due to San Tropez and Seamus)
Obscured by Clouds
Wish You Were Here

My Mind Sedate · 05-13-2010, 04:13 PM

It is definitely Animals for me. Pigs(Three Different Ones) just blows my mind.

Huzzah, my top 3 are the top 3 chosen so far! Albeit in a different order. My favorite would be Meddle, followed by Animals, followed by WYWH. Animals used to have the 5.0 rating for me, but I'd say Meddle is the only one that screams 'personal significance' as of now.
