If you can't appreciate Welcome to the Machine, Wish You Were Here, and Have a Cigar then there's no hope for you. Not only are they brilliant songs, albeit very dark, but the production is unreal.

When was the last time you listened to WTTM really loud on headphones? My God. People rave about Radiohead and yet that haven't come close to anything like that. Humphries is amazing.
