    I seem to like Pink Floyd songs a lot more when Ed sings them... 🤷🏼‍♀️ So Incubus for me

    Back when Incubus's version come out, I was super into Incubus and loved Morning View.  It's more personally how I enjoy the song than whether or not it's better for me.

    Thank you for introducing me to that Bee Gees tune @cdthomas1981 !  :smiley: Wowow that was quite... mmmm something. I thought a melodic Bee Gees song might sway my vote but it didn't quite work that way this time ;)

    Oh yeah, that is definitely not one of their best.  :)

    Pretty simple.  Looked for Pink Floyd's name and voted for it.

    Voted for Pink Floyd because it’s such a powerful song (Syd Barrett and all) but I enjoy that Incubus song every time I hear it as well.  Fact is,
    I generally turn up the volume whenever I hear either 👍

    Same here, exactly!

    I still prefer Floyd over it (and sorry to Ed; to my ears, his voice just doesn't suit the song - at least from the versions I've heard).

    Incubus song was really good for the time when it came out.  I still like hearing it too.

    I’m not a Pink Floyd fan at all but this is such a great song
