4. It seems many artists of the 60's, 70's, and 80's were.

Black Sabbath were too.

3. ..

Welcome my son
Welcome to the machine
Where have you been?
It's alright we know where you've been
You've been in the pipeline
Filling in time
Provided with toys and scouting for boys
You brought a guitar to punish your ma
And you didn't like school
And you know you're nobody's fool
So welcome to the machine

Welcome my son
Welcome to the machine
What did you dream?
It's alright we told you what to dream
You dreamed of a big star
He played a mean gituar
He always ate in the Steak Bar
He loved to drive in his Jaguar
So welcome to the Machine

5. No way spooky!

Pink Floyd was the cool of the cool, the 'bad' of the 'bad'. They totally rocked, especially if you had headphones. I might/could add obvious drugs to the equation, but having done the drugs, I still think they are fabulous to this day without them!
Ditto totally w/Queen. What can I say? I loved Freddy, the group, the sound, and their legacy.

6. I miss Freddy too!

7. Try seeing the animated video they made for it.

I have it on tape now, I got it off "VH1 Classics."

:scared:

8. My favorite Pink Floyd album!!

I was driving one night in upstate NY at about 3:00am -- I was heading to my parents' house for Christmas and was on a lonely, country road and it was dark. I was listening to a radio station from Ottawa, Canada and they played "Animals" -- the whole album. Being on a dark road by yourself, driving through the Adirondacks and listening to Pink Floyd's "Animals"...pretty amazing.
