I may well be with you on The Final Cut; "And even now part of me flies over Dresden at Angels One Five. They'll never fathom that behind my sarcasm desperate memories lie" is one of the most wrenching lyrics I've ever heard.
I'm probably the only person in the world who thinks The Final Cut (March 1983) is the best Pink Floyd album. I know David Gilmour hated it, and, of course, it was Waters last album with the band. Still....it's brilliant. Not the only one; although I would have to modify my statement to "one of the best." It's my contention that Roger continued on in this same vein with Amused To Death. I'm a friend of their engineer and he co-produced the album and helped make it so interesting to listen to from a technical perspective.

I am glad you do: your arm outstretched in the sunlight, a siren singing on it.
