Talk:Breathe (Pink Floyd song)

message: I've just added info on the Sea of Green cover version. Seeing the note about Pink Floyd never having spliced the song with its reprise before that 2005 performance led me to recall that this other band had already done it years before the original creators!

message: I changed the song length from eight back to three minutes in length, being as it's still approximately three minutes in length no matter how many times you 'look at the album' like the previous contributor had suggested.

message: Trademarked or copyrighted names and on up to the naming of countries should probably almost always (but see Burma's talkpage for (part of) a long history of debate) be as the possessors of the name prefer, and is an official type of behavior for purposes of simple order.  This is clear.  Any deviation implies a kind of assault or a misunderstanding of the fact that an item may be found better here by allowing all reasonable options through re-directs.  Simply go through with a re-direct creation process.  Someone knowing where this process may be found may add that.  If you need to disambiguate clearly for a reason, I believe that you don't need a huge one.173.15.152.77 (talk) 00:10, 6 September 2012 (UTC)

==Authorship and composition==
The authorship and composition of this song is credited to David Gilmour and Richard Wright for the music, and Roger Waters for the lyrics.
I don't doubt that's what the source says, and Andy Mabbett's been a reliable one. 
However, just as a listener and musician, it doesn't entirely make sense. Those bass lines of Roger Waters's, the tone, the swing-triplet phrasing, the iconic C#-D-D#-E climb from A major back to E minor, they're pretty fundamental to the song. This was not one of those songs where Gilmour played the bass on the studio version. And it's one that, IMO, suffered most when Waters was absent from PF. It worked reasonably well with the Waters solo band, and sounded excellent at the Live 8 reunion. And bootlegs from the classic era show that Waters did a fair amount of improv on his bass. Maybe something should be said about all this.
Obviously, the secondary chord progression starting at C major 7 ("For long you live ...") was a Rick Wright sequence. There's no question; it's got Wright's signature all over it.
I guess if Gilmour isn't credited as a co-composer on "Money", I can live with Waters not being credited as co-composer on "Breathe". But in my ideal world, they both would be, respectively.
If this is more of a comment than a suggestion, please excuse me. I don't feel like demanding changes on Wikipedia much these days.

message: In the caption for the pedal steel guitar image, it says that David Gilmour bought his Fender pedal steel in October 1970, but that can't be the case, because a) he clearly played it on "Fat Old Sun" and "Alan's Psychedelic Breakfast" and b) "Atom Heart Mother" was released in October 1970.
Some sources say that Gilmour bought the pedal steel in 1968 while others say 1970. Which is correct?
