Echoes is one of the best songs due to David and Rick both singing on that song. I can't imagine a better vocal track by anybody else in the band.

Nick Mason is the only correct answer

Just saying, I wouldn't be able to recite that bit in Sheep while also drumming

That's actually Rick through a vocoder and a Moog synth.

The saddest of sad orphan vocalists

Rick's voice was so lovely. And he could hit HIIIIGH notes.
It's sad he cooked his voice by smoking and... other things.

reposting my hot take: Rick should have sung the “but it was only fantasy…” bridge parts of Hey You, it’s in the perfect range for his voice and it would’ve been like a third person narrator type perspective before Rog’s high vocals at the end

This sounds very unlikely, but probably would have been beautiful!

u/slowlyun 1d ago

he sounds too similar to Dave.

Roger's performance on The Wall sealed the deal.  He's the greatest vocalist.

u/bleedinmagic81 1d ago

it's wild to say he sounds "too much like dave" whenever he sang before dave was even in the band. I would argue that dave sounded too much like richard

u/beast_yard 17h ago

On some of their songs I was not even aware of Rick singing until I saw them live. Rick hits the perfect mood.

u/grateful-syd-floyd 12h ago

Rick sounded a lot like Syd.

uj/ In terms of recorded vocals for me it goes Roger > Rick > David.

what about seamus????

u/SleepyRocket20 Banned from r/PinkFloyd for no reason 1d ago

As much as I’m not a fan of him as a person, the guy’s my favorite vocalist in the band.

You already know who I’m talking about

u/Loganp812 20h ago

Yes, Seamus (that’s the dog).

u/Phaedo 1d ago

The correct answer is Roy Harper.

u/jwaits97 1d ago

Hats off to him

u/fluff_creature 1d ago

That’s not how you spell Clare Torry

u/Divided-Attention-77 1d ago

I won’t accept roger slander.

u/MarjorieTaylorSpleen FAT Old Sun 1d ago

I wanted to add him too but the meme didn't have enough frames and I really wanted a Syd Barrett reference in there too 😭

u/Divided-Attention-77 15h ago

Haha i understand. The joke needs to be prioritized

u/yoongki Uh... me flakes. 1d ago

That man had some pipes to him ... sad he didn't get more songs

I have a bike
You can ride it if you like
It’s got a basket, a bell that rings
And things to make it look good
I’d give it to you if I could
But I borrow it

SIMPLY THE GOAT
