Waters just can’t keep his fn liberal woke mouth shut. Typical loudmouth nobody Leftist.
Would not know, never listened to whatever band that weird old guy was in.
Waters looks like Aguqlung these days.
Somebody peed in Waters’ Cherios.
Funny how the same band had arguably, one of the nicest guys in rock, David Gilmour, and the most bitter in Roger Waters.
That is why some people look like they are normal until you hear what oozes out of their festering gob.
War Pigs is a much better anti-war song than Us And Them.
And this is why when asked if he would ever perform with Waters again, Gilmour instantly replied “Absolutely not!”.
No one has listened to Waters about anything since 1985.
That statement has more profound implications for Black Sabbath fanatics than for Ozzy Osbourne. Ozzy was a thug compared to the brilliant musician that is Roger Waters.
Now Ozzy’s not here to defend himself he makes these statements. He could of said all this when Ozzy was alive. Kind of cowardly of him and very disrepectful to those who are freshly grieving.
And Waters treated Rick Wright like crap.
And it was Gilmour who made sure Syd Barrett was well taken care of.
“...how pop culture figures can distract people from important political issues.”
I thought that was their purpose?
But I guess Waters can stick with his witty and biting political treatises. Like the following:
Grantchester Meadows (lyrics by Roger Waters)
“Icy wind of nights be gone this is not your domain”
In the sky a bird is heard to cry
Misty morning whisperings and gentle stirring sounds
Belied the deathly silence that lay all around
Hear the lark and harken to the barking of the dog fox
Gone to ground
See the splashing of the kingfisher flashing to the water
And a river of green is sliding unseen beneath the trees
Laughing as it passes through the endless summer, making for the sea
In the lazy water meadow I lay me down
All around me golden sun flakes covering the ground
Basking in the sunshine of a bygone afternoon
Bringing sounds of yesterday into this city room
Hear the lark and harken to the barking of the dog fox
Gone to ground
See the splashing of the kingfisher flashing to the water
And a river of green is sliding unseen beneath the trees
Laughing as it passes through the endless summer, making for the sea
“the Pink Floyd legend spoke about how pop culture figures can distract people from important political issues.”
Yeah, like acting like a Nazi and bashing Jews like Roger Hitler Waters does
Probably my favorite PF song is “Wots, Uh The Deal”, Gilmour’s vocals are so good, and I was surprised though that Waters wrote it. It’s been a regular song on Gilmour’s solo tours.
Wrong. They’re both brilliant. Go listen to Black Sabbath Changes from 1972. Then go listen to The Writ from 1975. Ozzy was a melodic genius. You’re ignorance is expected bytcstill tiresome. Have some respect. Sabbath are gaining on many other classic British 4 piece bands culturally. Ozzys’s first 2 solo albums are way better than any of Roger’s.
Waters is a dick with ears.
And Waters treated Rick Wright like crap.
.....
Stole my thoughts! Agreed.
I still get goosebumps watching the final time Wright played Echoes on Gilmour’s solo tour. Gilmour said he will never perform it again, without Richard.
He hates the Jews, because he blames them for killing his father. Which makes no sense to me. It’s not like the U.K. went to war with Germany to save the Jews. Germany gave them no choice, including The Blitz.
