Reviews for Echoes Lyrics

Pink Floyd is the very band which made me like music and after several years spent listening to other rock bands from the 70's and 80's PF is still my favourite.
I always liked Echoes in particular but never really listened to the lyrics (I'm French) but a few weeks ago I did listened and realized the deepness of this song. I can't help listening to it again and again now =)

If you haven't been convinced that most music is garbage you probably haven't put on a good pair of headphones, dimmed the lights, and listened to Echoes. Not sure what else to say. It doesn't matter how many times you listen to it. It's like the first time every time.

Such a great music, transporting you upon everything. Pink Floyd are among the rare bands and artists who really understood the goal of music, and I am happy to read many of these comments, of people who also seem to understand. These sound-sellers are nothing compared to such great musical artists.

Yet, I know only one group as great as PF, Led Zeppelin of course. Their 6 first albums are so great, such as Since I've Been Loving You and Stairway to Heaven.

Thanks to these two bands, their music never betray us.

23+ min, pure perfection, combine of magical Wright keyboard touch, magnificant guitar parts by Gilmore, effective bass by Waters, and genious drum addiction by Mason...No one can reach this PF perfection!!!

this song summarizes the essence of Floyd music , it takes to you to calmness and make your mind flyes around whatever you remenberings want without the necessity of takung any drug. Simply awesome . RIO the great and only RW.(in memoriam)

I'm 42 years old and have been listening to PF when I was about 12 years. With the years I appreciated the music even more. Recently i bought the David Gilmour Live at Gdansk DVD inclusing full version of Echoes.
I blow me away. What an intense music. Starting quite normal and then the keybord of R.W. communicating with the guitar of DG. Just....no words.
Above all these artists have been so humble all their lifes. Big contrast with todays so called popstars. PF is real top quality music that goes into your bloodstream and touches you.
Really hope that DG has enough time to produce/compose more diamonds of music.

This song, whilst long, is my very favourite song of all time. I want this to be played at my funeral- the full 23:31 seconds version, not the shorter version seen on Echoes: the best of Pink Floyd, which is only 16:33 seconds. I'm only 15, but have had the chance to see Roger waters Live (he unfortunately did not include echoes on his set)which was an amazing night and my first ever concert- I'm wearing the tshirt from the night right now. 18th May 2008 at the appropriately named Echo arena in Liverpool.

I don't think that epitaph is any better or worse than echoes. Echoes is driven by David Gilmour's excellent guitar playing, whereas Epitaph is driven by Greg Lake's singing. I think it just depends on which one of these you prefer.

Echoes takes you to a different land. That is the essence of Pink Floyd music..you can escape. The melodic voice of Rick Wright combined with Gilmours voice and guitar play is simply magical. R.I.P. Richard!

These Pink Floyd songs are the music of my childhood. for as logn as i can remember, my dad played tapes in the car, sang to me when i was taking a bath, and it was conforting. Now, older, i can appreciate the lyrics along with the amazing music. i love PF soo much and this is one of my favorite songs!

Pink Floyd is masterpeice after masterpeice, true artists. King Crimson is good, but i dont think they even touch floyd.

Compare Epiteph to Echoes. They sound very alike, but epiteph just dosnt cut it.

Pink Floyd is an excellent band, though I wouldn't go as far as calling them the best band ever, not even the best progressive rock band ever (King Crimson holds that title). Alongside Us and Them, and Time, Echoes is easily one of my favorite Floyd songs. I just got done watching 2001: A Space Odyssey, and I synced Echoes to the Jupiter and Beyond The Infinite segment. I must say, it worked out incredibly well.. It only adds to the amazing experience that is Echoes.

This is one of my all time favorite song by Pink Floyd. It's sad to hear that Richard Wright has died on 15 Sep 08. We'll always remember his touch of music for Pink Floyd. Thank you Rick, Goodbye Rick & R.I.P. Rick.

This is by far my favorite song of all time, from my favorite band of all time. I'm young, and unfortunately wasn't around for the opportunity to see Floyd live, but this song has influenced me greatly, every day. No other masterpiece has come close to making me feel the ethereal, mysterious wonder Echoes has. May this song be a message to all musicians, that songs more than 20 minutes CAN in fact succeed.

hmm iv had so many trips with floyds music, without drugs. over the years iv come to the conclusion that all pink floyd songs have a definite meening, they are all strang and confusing, but i think their trying to tell you this one simple perfect pure distinct emotional word. and that word is.......try.
