Mid

This article has been rated as Mid-importance on the project's importance scale.

This article was a past project collaboration.

To-do list:

Fair use

Add fair use rationale to all images and sound samples (all except images already labeled free use).
Re-size large images around to 300 pixels (all "fair use" images), other than album covers (already done).

Articles

Expand all articles to at least Start class. Some song stubs can't be expanded and should be redirected to the relevant album article. Use the "Interstellar Overdrive" article as an example when editing a song stub.
Expand all of the Floyd's studio album articles to at least GA status.
See COTM for monthly collabs.

Project building

Add WikiProject Pink Floyd banner {{WPFloyd}} to all appropriate Talk pages.
Personally invite quality editors working on Pink Floyd articles to join the project.

If you complete one of these tasks, please remove it from the list.

Stub[edit]

I don't think this article needs a stub notification, as none of the other Dark Side songs have them. There's plenty of information on here - basically all there is to know. I'm going to take it off. Naturrien 18:54, 1 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Original research[edit]

I don't think that my assertion that ACYL is Floyd's only piece of 'absolute music' would constitute 'original research'. It's just something I happen to know, that's all Martyn Smith 19:02, 22 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Scat vocals?[edit]

I don't think there are any vocals in this song, maybe someone's getting confused about Gilmour's weirdly processed guitar solo that runs for the last half of the song. --JamesHoadley 09:29, 14 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah there are! They're tucked just behind the guitar and following the same notes in the same way that he does earlier at the end of Money and on Wish You Were Here.NH78.147.146.102 (talk) 00:51, 19 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Infobox[edit]

The template must be changed to Template:Song infobox. Armando.O^{talk • Ev} 04:58, 1 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Image copyright problem with Image:Money 1973.jpg[edit]

The image Image:Money 1973.jpg is used in this article under a claim of fair use, but it does not have an adequate explanation for why it meets the requirements for such images when used here. In particular, for each page the image is used on, it must have an explanation linking to that page which explains why it needs to be used on that page. Please check

That there is a non-free use rationale on the image's description page for the use in this article.
That this article is linked to from the image description page.

Origin of the title[edit]

It seems to me that this is no longer "unclear". The root origin is Henry Ford's (apocryphal) dictum, although Roger Walters got it indirectly, from a market trader (who was undoubtedly misquoting Ford). — Preceding unsigned comment added by 213.16.193.21 (talk) 08:24, 5 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Wright's Moog[edit]

Rick Wright admitted to using a Minimoog on "Any Colour You Like" and here's the source^[1], so there is a possibility that he used both the VCS3 and Synthi-A as well as the Minimoog. 220.245.150.73 (talk) 06:27, 15 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
