Temps de reflexió, incertesa, esperança... Amb Pink Floyd l'espera es més tranquila. Gaudim-ho Ticking away the moments that make up a dull day Fritter and waste the hours in an off hand way. Kicking around on a piece of ground in your home town Waiting for someone or something to show you the way ... Tired of lying in the sunshine staying home to watch the rain. And you are young and life is long and there is time to kill today. And then one day you find ten years have got behind you. No one told you when to run, you missed the starting gun. Ahhhh... (Oooh ahhhh) So you run and you run to catch up with the sun but it's sinking Racing around to come up behind you again. The sun is the same in a relative way but you're older Shorter of breath and one day closer to death. Every year is getting shorter; never seem to find the time. Plans that either come to naught or half a page of scribbled lines. Hanging on in quiet desperation is the English way

Acabem un any i mentre els darrers minuts s'esgoten, una bona cançó ens acompanya. Look up here, I'm in heaven I've got scars that can't be seen I've got drama, can't be stolen Everybody knows me now Look up here, man, I'm in danger I've got nothing left to lose I'm so high it makes my brain whirl Dropped my cell phone down below Ain't that just like me? By the time I got to New York I was living like a king There I'd used up all my money I was looking for your ass This way or no way You know, I'll be free Just like that bluebird Now, ain't that just like me? Oh, I'll be free Just like that bluebird Oh, I'll be free Ain't that just like me? Gràcies David per tanta bona música que perdurarà en el temps. Que tinguem una Bona entrada al 2017.

HAL 9000. Com la mort d'un ordinador ha passat a la història de moments mítics del cinema. HAL lletres que precedeixen a IBM o quan la tecnologia no es tan perfecte com creiem i els sentiments de la màquina es confonen com a les persones. Que mou HAL a actuar com ho fa? Sens dubte un dels misteris de 2001 que més tinta ha fet correr entre crítics, especialistes i bons cinèfils. Atrapat per la seva màgia.

I've seen things you people wouldn't believe. Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion. I watched c-beams glitter in the dark near the Tannhäuser Gate. All those moments will be lost in time, like tears in rain. Time to die. Quin gran final. De visió imprescindible !!!

Cançó clau en la història de la música, aquest Comfortably Numb es una de les millors cançons. Sembla ser que quan Pink Floyd es va dissoldre, una sentència judicial va dictar que cada compositor podia cantar només les seves parts a les cançons comunes escrites per Waters i Gilmour, Així va ser durant molt de temps. Per fi quan Waters va convidar al seu antic company a la seva gira, es va produir aquest moment màgic en que Pink Floyd va tornar (encara que sense Wright i Mason) a sonar com abans. Quina llàstima que no poguéssim disfrutar-ho al Sant Jordi, amb això els londinencs han tingut mes sort. M'agrada Pink Floyd Forever and ever....
