Animals with DSOTM an extremely close second.
Animals came out at the time when I was most heavily into acid which is probably why it wins. The timing was just perfect. Plus I shared Waters' viewpoint of the world back then.
Dogs is my favorite PF song ever and the solo right before "And when you lose control....." is Gilmour's best IMO. It not only totally nails the melody of the backing but also emotes exactly the tone of Waters' lyrics. One of the only solos that I'll still play every now and then. Never been able to quite get the "evil laughing" lick tone though. I think it's some sort of ring modulator.
Even this guy doesn't get it right.
