Your abilities and your versatility are really something. I love Pink Floyd. Got tickets to take my wife to Brit Floyd in March as she is a bigger fan than I am and you just really gave me a blast here. Very nice.

At first sight of the title and intro I thought "Terminator - Rise of the Duran" ;) (lol) Very cool track and guitar rides Michael - futuristic and innovative!

It took a while, thought "what the hell are they talking about?", but now I understand. This is a very inspired version. It feels like you really dived in the middle of the original to pick up the spirit in it.
Very good guitar play. I like the sounds you have put on the background. It's adding something dark, something machine-like and it makes me think of a train that never stops anymore.
And, this still sounds like Pink Floyd.
I enjoyed it, Michael.

Inspired take on this masterpiece - you've really enhanced the original with your take on it, squeezing every last drop of emotion out of it.
Wonderful stuff MD, really great. And I gave you stars for vocals because that guitar really talks here!
