So I've heard the new Roger Waters song Hello (I Love You) in its entirety. I really dont know if its just because its new or what, but I am almost prepared to say its his best song to date. The lyrics are kind of remeniscent of floydian days and the guitar solo is very Gilmour esque. All and all I would give this song five stars, two thumbs up, an A+, or whatever other high acclaim I can give it.
I have listened to the song several times and would not say it's one of his best. His voice is pretty much shot. Personally, my favorite is "Sexual Revolution" from Pros and Cons.
Sexual Revolution is very good, but i feel i must defend his new song. I don't think his voice is necessarily shot, of course it isn't what it used to be but Roger can still hit certain pitches that no other singer can. The song itself is beautifuly constructed and has a great guitar solo in it. Now I know i said early that I was close to saying that this was his best work ever, but that was a little bit of an overageration on my part. Even though I believe it to be in his top 5 for best solo songs, it is not his best to date.

Have you heard
it was on the news
your child can read you like a bedtime story
Like a Magazine
Like a has-been out to grass
Like afternoon T.V.
Why is my life going by so fast?
Hello I love you
Is there anybody in there?
Put down the phone
Shut up the shop
Make all their techno babble stop
We'll find a short-waved frequency
the wave connecting you and me
Hello I love you.
Have you heard
it was on the news
the general staff can't figure out
is this campaign win or lose
Life is long but it goes fast
the kids will have to separate
their future from our past.
Hello I love you
Is there anybody in there?
the ghosts are walking by my side
I feel their love I feel their pride
For I have built a bridge or two
bridges between me and you
Hello I love you.
Have you heard
it was on the news
you can make your peace
on the dark side of the moon
I'll see you there
we can rock 'n' roll
we can make our choice
we can say goodbye or say hello.
