Somebody has just had a momentary lapse of reason.

Besides, The Division Bell sucked. No Roger Waters? Get out of here. Gilmour is great but honestly no Roger Waters is basically no Pink Floyd, I know that's they said about Barrett but they managed to pull it off. In this case, they didn't pull it off.
I'm not usually a massive music critique but when it comes to my favourite bands I have a certain expectation when it comes to their music. Earlier stuff is absolutely gorgeous. But continuing on from there they got a bit topsy turvy. You could say I'm more of a Syd Barrett fan because I prefer his solo albums to many Pink Floyd albums, but I do love Animals and Wish You Were Here.
Goodbye Blue Sky is also my favourite song from The Wall after listening to it again.
I dislike A Momentary Lapse Of Reason as well because Roger Waters cocky attitude got the better of him. But to have no Waters all.... Just.. No.

Personally I think when Roger Waters became too dominant in the band, they suffered which is why I think their later more dominant Roger Waters albums are quite boring at times.

Rolling Stone normally spends its time running down albums, only to change their minds about those same albums ten years later and put them into one of their greatest albums list. How can anybody really take the critique of that mag seriously.
