5. Another Brick in the Wall, Part 2 (Track #5)
Score: 146
Biggest Fan(s): CasanovaZelos (#1)

Johnbobb: This song is almost too popular for it's own good. Taken out of the context of the album, as it far too often is, Another Brick Pt. 2 is almost cheery despite its dark undertones. It's a fun song. Chipper guitarwork and rants about pudding and singing children drowning Roger Waters' own vocals. Then that legendary guitar solo comes in, and it's sends chills down my spine. I highly recommend seeing the film's version if you can, because the darkness of the song definitely isn't overlooked.

4. Young Lust (Track #9)
Score: 151
Biggest Fan(s): HBJDubs (#1)

Johnbobb: I'm less than halfway through the album and already running out of ways to describe how fucking incredible it is from start to finish. I've sung this song in the shower maybe a dozen times, including the mumbly voice recordings at the end. It's one of the most straight rock songs on the album, which could've dragged it down from some of the more conceptual stuff if it wasn't just so fucking good.

3. Run Like Hell (Track #22)
Score: 178
Biggest Fan(s): Snake5555555555, Johnbobb, firefdr (#1)

Johnbobb: Perfect on its own, perfect in context, just altogether so so good.

2. Hey You (Track #14)
Score: 179
Biggest Fan(s): VeryInsane, Seanchan (#1)

Johnbobb: Underrated as far as Pink Floyd singles go! I feel like the big go-tos of this album are always Comfortably Numb and Another Brick Pt. 2 (Hey You getting cut from the film version might have something to do with it), but something about Hey You's comparable softness just really hits me, but what really brings this song together is 2 minutes in. No band can make a guitar solo have the same emotional hit like Pink Floyd. This is the first track that takes place within the wall, and it jumps around from calls, to pleas, to sudden realization.

1. Comfortably Numb (Track #19)
Score: 206
Biggest Fan(s): SpikeSetsFire, TheArkOfTurus, neonreaper, ChainLTTP, darkx (#1)

Johnbobb: I'm really torn on this. It's not as emotionally or thematically complex as many of the songs surrounding it, but it's also an incredible song musically, with multiple excellent guitar solos and vocal changes. It's also a little difficult to view it in the context of the rest of the album given just how huge this song became on its own.
