Usually, in the studio, on this sort of thing ... you just go out and have a play over it, and see what comes, and it's usually — mostly — the first take that's the best one, and you find yourself repeating yourself thereafter.

— David Gilmour

Where would rock and roll be without feedback?

Pink Floyd: Live at Pompeii (1972)

It's crazy that America gives such a paltry percentage of its GNP to the starving nations.

Who are you and who am I
To say we know the reason why
Some are born, some men die,
Beneath one infinite sky?

And so all things time will mend,
So this song will end.

The band? It's over. Reunited because of the good cause (Live 8), to get over the bad relationship, and not to have regrets.
