The story behind this one is that the singer, Clare Torry, was on acid at the time. She tried to vocalize to match the instruments. She sang, wonderfully. The next day she felt so ashamed of herself that she had just sung while intoxicated she decided that she would record again for Floyd at no extra cost. Pink Floyd said that the first version was more than good enough, and that was the version they stuck with. Wonderful.

Uh God... this song is incredible... like the entire dark side of the moon... The story of this song, in the "Dark Side of The Moon DVD Documental" is just great... Clare Torry voide is unbelivable... the first time she listened to the recorded instrumental, she tried to sing something, and that thing she sang was the one recorded. Only one try to a spectacular piece of hearing art...

When the Dark Side of the Moon suite was performed in 1972 (before the album was released), the song was completely different and went under the title "The Mortality Sequence". Then, it was simply an organ and samples of people speaking about death being played during the performance.

“And I’m not frighten of dying, any time will do.” Each time I come back from a funeral this album seems more magical. Money, insanity, death, the unknown forces and external forces (war, etc.) that make up our lives are all richly displayed. So, so, perfect.

Maybe they could have Stringmanuk; but I prefer they didn't. Using these ultra amazing vocals for more then just a couple songs would lose the uniqueness, a woman giving her all, no words to find- to make music gives more emotion than anything you could think of. Floyd is perfection of everything. Floyd has always had tis kind of of backing vocals, but never dedicated a full song too them.
