The ending of Saucerful Live in Pomeii.

Time. So beautiful. Also love On the Turning Away. I got to see David live in Chicago back in 2016. Incredible. Also meet him in person while walking downtown. Best day ever!

High Hopes. The pensive, melancholy nostalgia in his voice perfectly colors the lyrics

I couldn't agree more.

Green is the colour

"The Nile Song" as an example of his 'rock' vocals chops.

Overall: "Time", "Dogs" and "Sorrow"

There are so many. Green Is the Colour from the live performances (Early Years box) are good, his later live vocals on On the Turning Away and Comfortably Numb are excellent.

I love Wot's Uh The Deal. His voice is like warm melted chocolate on that.
