3. Oh, yes indeed...

Roger can be Pink if he wants...

The deity of David must not be denied!

4. Nonsense!

Syd trumps the lot of them! And I deny the divinity of David!

bluesmen Pink Anderson and Floyd Council...

Syd is a bi-polar acid-casualty...

David is GOD...

7. Tough Call, because

The song Have a Cigar, in which the line "Which one's Pink?" appears, is on the Album Wish You Were Here. Barrett had copletely left the band when WWYH was written. In fact, it was written about him (Shine On...). So this would lead me to believe that it was a reference to Waters. However, the song Have a Cigar is about the entrance into the industry. When those events would have taken place, the recognized band leader, aka "Pink", would have been Barrett...

So, anyway. I chose Waters for the hell of it. It sure as hell isn't Nick Mason or Rick Wright, and I am betting its not David Gilmour. Odds are "Pink" is either Waters or Barrett.

So, if I had to choose, I would say Waters, because I like his writing.

But, the real answer, I feel, is that no one is Pink. There is no Pink, as the name Pink Floyd was a blend of two famous Jazz artists. Plus, the line is more of a display of the ignorance and disinterest of studio executives within the industry. They don't really care to know about the band, they just want albums to be cranked out.

"The band is just fantastic, that is really what I think..."

Anyway...

I know way too much about Pink Floyd for someone who is 22 years old.

9. I agree.

The line in the song was mocking the studio exec.

10. Bob Geldof!
