EchoesPink Floyd38rank/position

Echoes

Pink Floyd is a band beloved around the world for their music rooted in art rock and progressive rock.

It seems Mr.

Araki is quite fond of Pink Floyd, as he used “Shine On You Crazy Diamond” as the basis for Part 4.

This “Echoes” is known as the inspiration for the popular Stand “Echoes” in Part 4.

Since the Stand’s ability is based on sound, this work may hold particularly strong significance for Mr.

Araki.

EclipsePink Floyd39rank/position

Eclipse

Pink Floyd’s The Dark Side of the Moon is celebrated as a legendary album worldwide.

The track that closes it is Eclipse.

To understand how this song relates to the “moon,” you need to know the album’s original title: The Dark Side of the Moon—literally, “the far side of the moon.” This phrase is actually a common idiom: because the side in shadow can’t be seen from Earth, it’s often used to mean “the unknown.” And at the end of Eclipse, the lyrics say, “There is no dark side of the moon really.

Matter of fact, it’s all dark.” The album ends on that line.

What it means is up to you to interpret.

Goodbye Blue SkyPink Floyd41rank/position

Goodbye Blue Sky

Goodbye Blue Sky begins with a scene where a girl tells her mother that there’s a plane flying in the sky.

It turns out to be a bomber, and the lyrics portray the horrors of war—how people must flee and hide even under a clear blue sky—and the suffering that continues even after the war ends.

Featured on the 1979 album The Wall, the song was written by Roger Waters based on his own experience of losing his father in World War II.

The gentle guitar sound further accentuates the sorrowful lyrics.

It has been covered by many artists, including Foo Fighters and Gov’t Mule.
