don't think it's that hard to differentiate

the second song is about sticking it to the Man

the first and third are about Waters' wife

No, as songs themselves they're not hard to differentiate at all, but as song titles they can be if one doesn't specify which Pigs they're talking about, it can get confusing.

I need to refresh my memory of the album, but IIRC I really liked Dogs.

Dogs is good, no doubt,
but,
A little bit drawn out
to,
make the final cut.

I praise pigs prowess,
packs a pleasing political punch,
placating poor people with powerful punky punts.

Although I like all three
quite fairly equally
I feel I must concede
that it just might be Sheep.





On second thought, I have to go with Dogs. It is much more memorable; I can recall pretty much all of the guitar and lyrics despite not hearing it for several months. The only line I remember from Sheep is "bleating and babbling he fell on his neck with a scream. Wave upon wave of demented avengers march cheerfully out of obscurity into the dream" which IS an awesome line....it echoes of the way Roger describes light in Echoes: "...and through the window in the wall, come streaming in on sun-lit wings, a million bright ambassadors of morning". Can't deny Roger Waters' lyrical talent!

But everyone knows Gilmour is the better musician (even though I like Roger Waters more)

Animals is one of the few perfect albums to me. I guess I would go with Dogs over all.
