High Hopes

This is the final song on "The Division Bell" and sadly the last original Pink Floyd song as well. The song speaks to all of us as it discusses what all of us human beings gain and lose through our lives. This is a typically long Floyd song clocking in at almost 9 minutes and uses sound effects which go all the way back to 1967.

The author Douglas Adams (The Restaurant at the End of the Universe) chose the album title from a line in this song.
