Answer 4

It's a tossup: On the Turning Away. Best from Delicate Sound of Thunder. Comfortably Numb. The guitar solo evokes so much loneliness. The musical genius of Pink Floyd is so apparent in this one for me. High Hopes. I love the bells in the background. Take It Back. Great song. Wish You Were Here. "We're all just, two lost souls living in a fish bowl. Year after year." Great line! Mother. Edit: Blue Light, David Gilmour. Love and Anger by Kate Bush, David Gilmour on guitar.
