the bookends - Pigs on the Wing

genuinely moving sincere song

I generally don't look at Animals as a collection of songs, but rather as a suite. Each song generally seems like a movement of a larger score, especially considering how Pigs opens the piece and reprises itself at the end, giving the album symmetry and closure, but If I had to pick, I'd say Dogs, because I don't always make it through the whole album, but I always try to at least make it through that song.

For me it's "Pigs" - perfectly describes politicians and other people of the "high" class.

We should probably differentiate since there's 3 of the 5 tracks on the album are titled Pigs:

Pigs on the Wing 1

Pigs: (Three different ones)

Pigs on the Wing 2

My fault. I just have always ignored what is written in brackets in songs' names. Pigs (Three different ones), of course.
And, by the way, I totally liked your opinion about the album. It's a detailed description of every class of the society in a beautiful way. From the "pigs" to the "sheep", nobody remains unaffected.

"Pigs (Three Different Ones)" will always remind me of joining in with the Occupy protests earlier this year. Good times.
