Roger Waters – ‘Speak To Me/Breathe’ Now Available

Pink Floyd - A Fleeting Glimpse Posted on by

Roger has released his final singles from his upcoming Dark Side of the Moon Redux, which is the opening tracks Speak To Me and Breathe. Speak To Me features some familiar lyrics from Obscured By Clouds, Pink Floyd’s 1972 album which preceded The Dark Side of the Moon. You can now stream the songs and view the lyric video below.

Roger Waters - Speak To Me / Breathe (Official Lyric Video, DSOTM REDUX)

 

 

 

 

 

“When we recorded the stripped down songs for the Lockdown Sessions, the 50th anniversary of the release of The Dark Side Of The Moon was looming on the horizon. It occurred to me that The Dark Side Of The Moon could well be a suitable candidate for a similar re-working, partly as a tribute to the original work, but also to re-address the political and emotional message of the whole album.

I discussed it with Gus and Sean and when we’d stopped giggling and shouting “You must be ****ing mad” at one another we decided to
take it on. It’s turned out really great and I’m excited for everyone to hear it. It’s not a replacement for the original which, obviously, is irreplaceable. But it is a way for the seventy nine year old man to look back across the intervening fifty years into the eyes of the twenty nine year old and say, to quote a poem of mine about my Father, “We did our best, we kept his trust, our Dad would have been proud of us”. And also it is a way for me to honor a recording that Nick and Rick and Dave & I have every right to be very proud of.”
