About music
I'm a fan of Pink Floyd. Most songs that I like were written when I was a child. The first time I heard them was in 1982. I lived in the USSR, beyond the Iron Curtain. Pink Floyd was forbidden in the former Soviet Union, but a lot of people kept records of Pink Floyd songs and shared them with each other. Of course there was radio, but there also were devices which created radio interference. So, it wasn't easy to listen to western music, but we did that just like millions of people everywhere.
At first I liked only their music, because I couldn't understand English and then, while studying language, I discovered the lyrics. It was incredible feeling to begin understanding words of songs that I had heard earlier. The lyrics of Pink Floyd appeared so deep and philosophical, that even if it was just not a rhymed text , I'd admired it anyway.
According to my personal taste, "Time" is the best song I have ever heard. Besides the excellent music, it has the best lyrics. Roger Waters found the perfect words:"Every year is getting shorter, never seem to find the time. Plans that either come to naught or half a page of scribbled lines".
He was only 28 years old when he wrote this thing.
My second choice that I'd like to share is split between "High Hopes" and "Learning to Fly", created by David Gilmour. Both deserve to be appreciated.
My third choice, I'd give to "Another Brick in The Wall". It is simply brilliant.
I'd continue writing but now it is time to listen to Pink Floyd ;-))
