Is the song Brain Damage?
Another Brick in the Wall Pt I according to the article. Woulda picked comfortably numb or something personally.
They actually don't specify what part so it's probably part II (aka. the most well known Pink Floyd song for some reason).
The clip almost makes it sound more like part of the intro to Run Like Hell, though, to my ear at least.
I mean it's a pretty song that people like to sing along, but they don't know what it means.
The first part is the intro to part I. The second part is too ambiguous to know. It's just the vocals saying "another brick in the wall". I didn't actually know there were two clips originally, so the second one is somewhat interesting.
Maybe the listeners thought of other songs while listening to it ?
The song chosen is my personal favorite from the album:)
