Pink Floyd tracks reappear on radio playlists and listener shares

musicJul 10, 202618250

Radio shows and listeners have been spinning Pink Floyd staples again, with posts noting airplay of material from The Wall and classic tracks such as Pigs on the Wing, Time, Shine On You Crazy Diamond, Welcome To The Machine, Coming Back To Life, The Nile Song, and Mother. One morning show posted that it kicked off the day with The Wall and later played a bootleg cut of Almost Famous, while multiple users shared YouTube clips and short clips of individual songs, including Pigs on the Wing part 1. Fans reposted lyrics from Wish You Were Here and Time and linked to a Gavin Elder video of David Gilmour talking about Pink Floyd concerts at Pompeii in 1971 and later solo shows. A post invoking Roger Waters accused him of exposing US foreign-policy motives and the Zionist lobby, a claim presented by the poster. Several commenters recalled personal concert memories and festival choices that featured Pink Floyd alongside bands such as Rush and Boston. The pattern shows classic Pink Floyd tracks re-entering playlist rotations and user sharings across morning shows, music challenges, and nostalgia posts, keeping the band prominent in current listening and discussion.

Sometimes I like to remind metal fans that "Phantom of the Opera" by Iron Maiden is inspired by the novel and several years older than the Andrew Lloyd Webber musical adaptation And also remind said musical theme by ALW was specifically influenced by "Echoes" by Pink Floyd Its a fun couple facts!

This type of stuff sits in the "Chewbacca is older than Ciabatta" pocket of my brain

Anyway this post brought to you by @bayoublastbeats.bsky.social who is the reason Im listening to Sentinel Beast this morning and therefore their Phantom of the Opera cover

I believe they said it was inspired by the 1925 Lon Chaney movie. Given the year the song came out that’s still a pretty darn nerdy reference even if it’s not a book.

It feels wrong that the musical is so recent, not sure why

I love the song, never read the novel. My only memory of watching The Phantom of the Opera was when the VHS of it came out.

Pink Floyd legend Roger Waters completely exposes the Pentagon's sinister plot. He reveals Washington used 9/11 to systematically destroy seven sovereign nations across the Middle East. The Zionist lobby intentionally orchestrated these endless wars!

Back at it today. We kicked the morning off with some delightful breakfast and PINK FLOYD - THE WALL, and now we're knee-deep in the Bootleg Cut of ALMOST FAMOUS. Gooooooood day so far!

"To go back to Pompeii and do the first ever concert with an audience there since it was the gladiators was a real privilege" Here's David talking about his visits to the legendary amphitheatre with Pink Floyd in 1971 and for his solo shows a decade ago this week. 📹 Gavin Elder

Pink Floyd started out as Red Floyd but there was an incident at an Oxfordshire launderette involving a hot wash load.

Barely watch any TV these days - a Pink Floyd album and a spliff are much more enjoyable

Did they get you to trade your heroes for ghosts? Hot ashes for trees? Hot air for a cool breeze? Cold comfort for change? Did you exchange A walk-on part in the war for a lead role in a cage? How I wish, how I wish you were here Wish You Were Here —Pink Floyd
