Pink Floyd-Dogs Part 2
From Wikipedia. Roger Waters - Bass guitar, vocals David Gilmour - Vocals, acoustic and Fender Telecaster electric guitars Richard Wright - Fender-Rhodes piano, Hammond organ, Mini-Moog Synthesizers, ARP String Synthesizer, backing vocals Nick Mason - drums, percussion. Dogs are used to represent the megalomaniacal businessmen who destroy themselves and those around them by obsessing over their egos and their careers. A number of comparisons are made and metaphors used to show how close ...
Tose two notes at 5:05 are incredible, just as they were 10 minutes earlier in the song.
This is an incredible song. Any ordinary band would be delighted to have written and performed a song as well as Floyd did this, though Floyd could simply write it off as ‘done during an uncreative period’.
The acoustic at the beginning immerses you into the song immediately, the lyrics are haunting, and good fun to sing, and you can’t fault Gilmour’s guitar. Ever.
It’s funny that part two has almost half as many views as part one. part two is the culmination!
Nice of you to notice but who asked you if anyone asked him?
The three middle songs on Animals are among the best they ever played. Too bad no one noticed
Is this a “don’t mess with my little brother” story? That’d be somewhat amusing
Animals was Pink Floyds best album IMO.
DOGS is awesome….timeless genius.
“only a stranger at heart”
agreed best album next to dark side of the moon
YOu’re right. Those two notes and the solo that follows it are definitely defining pieces of Rock History.
God, I love this song…
“only a stranger at home??”
draged down by the stone
david gilmour is the best bye far no contest
at least BrokenChair88 hasn’t commented here
I love Wish You Were Here and Animals…can’t decide which is best. Dark Side comes in third.
Every C.E.O deserves a copy of this
album
this song is great
I saw this tour in Louisville, Kentucky back in ’77, it provided me a glimpse of something that I had never seen before. Imagine 25,000 people, all on acid, and not one of them making a sound throughout a three hour concert. They stared in rapture, barely breathing, and when Gilmour hit those infamous two notes in the refrain of “Dogs” I’d just about swear that they all orgasamed at the same time. I’ve never seen any other band provoke such a response in a audience.
its got nothing to do with god!:-)
lucky one, i can only imagine,
I was also fortunate enough to see their “Momentary Lapse Of Reason” tour, even without Waters their sound and effect on the crowd was the same.
Fuck fuckity Fuck Fuck Fuck! this shit’s amazing…saw waters in ’07 on mushrooms…fuckn wonderful ambience. truly a sight to behold. long live the FLOYD!!!
I love the subtle political overtones here and the types of people in the world. On the album cover is a real picture of a factory set in WW2 with barbed wire around it. Was it a concentration camp factory like IG Farben? I went to see these guys the year Roger Waters left the band how depressed I was because I played bass at the time and really admired the bands creativity with Waters. Good concert anyways though. Capitol Center , Wash D.C.1986 or 1987 . remeber
How far back have you looked through the comments? XP
The five studio album stretch (Meddle, Dark Side of the Moon, Wish you were here, Animals and The Wall) are really unparrelled in rock history. And while this album criticaly and commercially took a back step to Dark Side and The Wall, it is by far my favorite Floyd Album. With “Dogs” being my favorite Floyd song on it.
