Pink Floyd Quiz: Guess the Song & Test Your Trivia

A Pink Floyd quiz tests two things: name the song, and do it with no chorus to lean on, since much of the catalog is long, instrumental or segued. Guess the Pink Floyd song from a sound rather than a lyric: the cash-register loop of 'Money', the clocks that open 'Time', the acoustic 'Wish You Were Here' and the solo in 'Comfortably Numb'. Then test your trivia on the deep cuts, from 'Shine On You Crazy Diamond' to 'Echoes', 'Dogs' and 'Atom Heart Mother'. The sound tells you, not the chorus.

✦'Money' is built on a spliced tape loop of cash registers and coins and runs in an unusual 7/4 time, two favourite Pink Floyd quiz details.

✦'Time' opens with a montage of alarm clocks that engineer Alan Parsons recorded one by one in an antique shop, then layered together.

✦The Dark Side of the Moon plays as one continuous suite and stayed on the US Billboard 200 for hundreds of weeks after its 1973 release.

✦'Another Brick in the Wall, Part 2', with its choir of schoolchildren, was the band's only single to top the US Billboard Hot 100, in 1980.

✦For the Animals cover in 1977 the band floated an inflatable pig over Battersea Power Station; it broke loose and drifted into airline flight paths.

The Dark Side singles (where casual fans score)

Most players catch these fast: 'Money' by its cash-register loop, 'Time' by its clocks, 'Another Brick in the Wall' by its choir, 'Wish You Were Here' by its acoustic intro and 'Comfortably Numb' by its solo. These are the free points in a Pink Floyd quiz, most of them known by their sound before their title.

Name it from the sound, not the chorus (the real test)

This is the angle that sets a Pink Floyd quiz apart. Long instrumentals and effects carry the song: the heartbeat under 'Speak to Me', the footsteps and screams scattered through Dark Side, the slow build of 'Shine On You Crazy Diamond'. With no clear chorus, the miss is placing a track from its texture alone.

Waters, Gilmour and the deep cuts (where superfans pull ahead)

Past the singles, the field thins on the album pieces and on who sings: Roger Waters' bite on 'Dogs' and 'Sheep' from Animals, David Gilmour's tone on 'Echoes', and the sprawl of 'Atom Heart Mother'. Place these from a short clip and you have reached the top tier of a Pink Floyd round.

The Syd Barrett years (the early curveball)

The trickiest questions reach back to Syd Barrett: 'See Emily Play', 'Arnold Layne' and the debut 'The Piper at the Gates of Dawn'. 'Shine On You Crazy Diamond' was later written for Barrett himself. A thorough Pink Floyd quiz keeps one wildcard from these early years.

Which Pink Floyd songs are in the quiz?

The signatures lead: 'Money', 'Time', 'Wish You Were Here', 'Comfortably Numb' and 'Another Brick in the Wall', with deeper cuts from Animals and the Syd Barrett era in the harder rounds.

What makes the Pink Floyd quiz tricky?

Many tracks are long, instrumental or run straight into each other, so there is no chorus to grab. The catch is naming a song from its sound: the cash registers on 'Money', the clocks on 'Time', the heartbeat across Dark Side.

Can you score 10 out of 10 on Pink Floyd?

Only if you know the album pieces, not just the singles. Placing 'Echoes' or 'Dogs' from a short clip, and telling Roger Waters from David Gilmour, is what turns a good score into a perfect one.
