 * I would like to put in my two cents that interpretations be removed from the articles regarding songs on The Division Bell and more citations of David Gilmours comments regarding the songs be added. There are numerous sources in which Gilmour basically states that he refuses to say what the songs are about. Anything that is not a direct quote is pure speculation and may actually hinder the ability of the reader/listener to form his or her own unique ideas about the music, which is exactly what the band seems to prefer - leaving the songs open to interpretation. --Chinagreenelvis (talk) 20:01, 25 April 2008 (UTC)

Pale U2 Imitation
I wouldn't say this song sounds especially like "Where The Streets Have No Name" in particular, but to my ears, it was obvious from the start that Gilmour was deliberately trying to sound like The Edge, in hopes of having a hit. This is ironic, considering that The Edge was probably influenced by Gilmour's earlier work with digital delay and palm-muting on The Wall (1980). But The Edge took it in his own direction, so when Gilmour turns up in 1994 with this riff, he's is the one who sounds imitative. Bizarre, but there you have it.

Just one of the many little ways in which this song ''suuucks. . . .''

 * It's not Pink Floyd's fault that every U2 song sounds the same. This makes it almost inevitable that ONE of their songs would sound like ONE U2 song.  But I digress...this page is meant for academic discussion of the article...--NYMFan69-86 (talk) 22:43, 6 October 2010 (UTC)
 * I was also coming to ask whether any critic had ever observed that this song is Pink Floyd trying to sound like U2. —Mahāgaja · talk 10:43, 19 March 2021 (UTC)

Question
What makes this article start class when it seems to resemble a stub?--NYMFan69-86 (talk) 02:34, 24 October 2010 (UTC)
