    Pink Floyd will be the Progressive Rock Band listened to and remembered for years to come,.. because as Roger said once fifty plus years ago ......."Rock will never die". Four musical geniuses that got together and created and played the most iconic music ever that only a true Floydian can comprehend and enjoy the esence of their creations. RIP dear Rick. Long live to David, Nick and Roger.Let's keep the Floyd's legacy alive.

    At the time of this awards ceremony, Richard Wright was terminally-ill with Lung-cancer, and from the Nick's slight pause when mentioning him, it bothered him terribly; No surprise David wasn't there since Roger was, but Rick had just months to live at this time. He is missed.

    @@ThatIsDopeBro LOL! One thing about Pink Floyd is at any given time any album will be somebody's favourite. Like many prog bands each of their album is so different my theory is that it depends at what point in your life you are listening. I'm aware I'm in the minority as I never liked Dark Side of the Moon THAT much. I think Animals is the one I listened the most often to, it was 'my favourite for longer' than the other albums, but I like Meddle as second best ALWAYS. The Final Cut I had my go of having it a favourite, but it wasn't long. Davids job was always to make sure hte music stands on its own as much as the lyrics, I don't think that happened in Final Cut or in Rogers solo stuff. He more than made up for that with lyrics, and it was at a time the music took a back seat anyway.

    It says it all when Roger says "we weren't taking any drugs....apart from alcohol". He also said "I hardly took any drugs, I only had a brief stint of drug taking.....four or five years". He was also a chain smoker. Frankly drugs probably would have been better. Pretty sure david spent most of the eighties in a cocaine haze, MOST of the music industry did. But if you listen to lesser known music stuff from britain, you find they weren't so singular, they just got more populare.

    Well that's simply not true, One Over X. Since Roger wrote pretty much all the music AND lyrics of all PF's post-Barrett albums and songs. And yes (coming from this amateur guitarist for 40 yrs of playing) Gilmour is superb and a complete original and with Jeff Beck and Knopfler one of my three electric guitar heroes. But creating music and lyrics seems to me to be the hardest thing to do, especially such complex chords, progressions and melodies. And those are primarily Waters' ideas. AND he created Amused to Death, which is up there with the very very best of Floyd's material. So yeah, not to take sides, but Roger is just the most gifted of the 4, when it comes to creating, songwriting, lyrics. Up there with Paul Simon and Paul McCartney, to name a few.

    If anyone are wondering who the guy speaking first is. His name is Fredrik Reinfeldt, former Prime Minister and are responsible for the fall of Sweden and used mass-immigration as a weapon. He knew very well of the consequences and that it's practically undoable without turning all faschist/nazi in some way. Fascism, nazis and any form of alt-right is frowned upon very actively by the general mass, the media and the governments public sectors. He used this opportunity for his own fundamental idéas which he very well explained in his book 'Det Sovande Folket' from 93. He wished to remove the welfare state and create a lower class for his own elitist capitalist money making insanity. It was during the last years of being prime minister and no matter the outcome he has to step down because you can't be a prime minister for longer than 8 years (please correct me on this), but they were also very likely to lose their next campaign (which they did). His party went from a majority in the first term to forming a minority government(?) and their party showed decline so it was pretty obvious that the Social Democrats would win 2010, which would be perfect because Merkel stated that Syrians we're welcome, they said the same shortly after(?) which created a flood of immigrants to Sweden and suddenly we had a situation that was completely out of control for the next government to deal with somehow and show Sweden they're a weak party and of course he knows people are stupid enough to adress their anger and mistrust to the Social Democrats and quickly forgot that him and his party are to blame. He knew from the start that this issue and his actions is something the left already support. Mastermind.
