You say the hill's too steep to climb, chiding
You say you'd like to see me try, climbing
You pick the place and I'll choose the time
And I'll climb the hill in my own way
Just wait a while for the right day
And as I rise above the tree-line and the clouds
I look down hear the sounds of the things you said today
Fearlessly the idiot faced the crowd, smiling
Merciless the magistrate turns round, frowning
And who's the fool who wears the crown
No doubt in your own way
And every day is the right day
And as you rise above the fear-lines in his brow
You look down hear the sound of the faces in the crowd
''...Walk on; walk on with hope in your heart,
And you'll never walk alone;
You'll never walk alone.
Walk on; walk on with hope in your heart,
And you'll never walk alone;
You'll never walk alone.
Liverpool! Liverpool!''[[#Notes|1]]

playing this right after the charlatans one is just an awesome move :D
Perfect William! Was wondering when we would get The Charlatans track and this back to back - nice. You captured it perfectly - it IS their name. And I'm sure it was a homage.
As long as it's not Capitol #11163 I can like it.
RP feature request: allow me to increment the number of times I come to this song to give it a 10, only to find that was already done.
A big yes..!!

Hey, doesn´t this sound like that Charlatans song?
The other way around. ...this song was first!
Funny how this is the first song I hear today, after hearing it live yesterday by Nick Mason's Saucerful of Secrets.
Pink Floyd "Fearless" back-to-back with The Charlatans "Here Comes a Soul Saviour" ....... with suitable comments in between from Bill. Pure class .
That was such a clever transition from the Charlatans!
Hey, doesn´t this sound like that Charlatans song?
I got to see Billy Strings last summer, and he started out the second set with a great version of this classic - instantly recognizable - very worthy cover from a great group of musicians!
This sounds like Pink Floyd.

Great segue from Baby by DakhaBrakha.
I'm not much of a floyd fan but this one always sounds most excellent
In retrospective, nothing special.
This is great! I just noticed the guitar riff used in the previous song by The Charlatans. Good call Bill.
Billy Strings played this a few weeks ago in Munich - fantastic!
A great example how Waters and Gilmour could work some great magic when writing together.

I love this album. It's like Barrett on one side, and the 'new' Floyd on the other. That transition they had to make after Syd lost the plot was nothing short of miraculous. It has to be said that if Syd hadn't taken quite so much LSD, we might never have had the classic Floyd albums we know and love so much. Crazy.

The album's title Meddle is a play on words; a medal, and to interfere. Storm Thorgerson originally suggested a close-up shot of a baboon's anus for the album cover photograph. He was overruled by the band, who informed him via an inter-continental telephone call while on tour in Japan that they would rather have "an ear underwater". The cover image was photographed by Bob Dowling. The image represents an ear, underwater, collecting waves of sound (represented by ripples in the water).
kind of sorry for removing the mystery of that odd shape : )
Looks more like the tip of an elephants trunk than an ear. I can't see it...

This is a decent song, but idk about 8.5 average rating. 
Bill! The Liverpool Kop choir are NOT hooligans! They are singers of the highest calibre and would run a mile from violence of any sort.
said "fuck yeah" out loud hearing the opening...

They were, as you quite rightly point out 'The Kop Choir' who are generally speaking non violent fans.
Less of the "English football hooligans" - sure they exist, but Floyd used the Kopp choir who, by and large, aren't!

I LOOOaaaaVE BIG MAC .... oh P I N K F L O Y D
David Gilmour is a G O D
As Charlatans UK sang, "Here comes a soul saver on your record player..." (I believe they were paying a quite well-aimed homage, not stealing anything; and, in the process, they became another soul-saving band for me, and remain in high position in my Rock 'n' Roll Pantheon). Indeed... I fell in love with this band with every song I ever heard by them. FEARLESS IS THE WAY TO BE! It has a price, of course, but I'd like to believe that whatever gets unjustly torn down in this realm arises anew and is justly glorified in the next, Amen.

totally cool song !
Shame about the Liverpool FC connection ! 
On the same album Echoes is an epic, never to be repeated, a jewel in the world of music......... come on Dave do another tour!
After so many years I never changed my opinion on this song: the soccer supporters choir at the end is the less psychedelic and alternative idea I can think of.
1974 I slapped some big ass speakers in the back deck of my 66 Mustang, and then made my sister and mom sit in the car in the driveway and listen to the entire Echoes album. When they didn’t shower me with appreciation I began to wonder if perhaps I was adopted.
this album doesnt get enough credit for being trippy ground breaking

In my view, among the best god-like songs of all time. Climb the hill. Overcome internal fear. Cast off the chiding remarks of those who won't because of their own fears. The very first chord fills me with encouragement.

When I worked for a stereo dealer back in the day, the sales guys used to sell quite a few ESS Rock Monitors with Phase Linear 300 amps, to the hearing impaired. Fixed a great many after they burned up too.
That was what they wanted, to feel the music.
I always wondered if any lived in apartments.........
Thanks for that blast from the past.
I still have a Phase Linear 400...When it was in use, that amp needed those huge

I saw Pink Floyd at Case Western Reserve University, in a gymnasium, about the time this was released. Although I was completely straight at the time, there was a contact high effect that was inescapable. In many ways, I think this era represents some of the best work they did. Even knowing what came later, this point in their evolution was unique at the time. In some ways, their own fortunes (not monetary) might have been better had they not become so popular. I guess my perspective is based on seeing this group in that setting, when knowing what Pink Floyd even meant set one apart from most people. This was a college gym.

Will try this track as an induction for deep self-hypnosis next time, it should be working because the effect has already emerged while I was listening. Now I can't go back to my work.

well only in the sense that "block buster" usually means "most popular." Although I bet that the "average" PF fan has purchased the same record more than once, like w/ DSOTM; too bad there aren't stats showing how many unique purchases an album had vs. repeat purchases.
For me, in the cassette tape days when I first started my journey into PF's music, it started with The Wall, graduated to DSOTM, then WYWH, then Animals (i.e. the 3 #1s and the #3) and then into the early stuff and movie soundtracks.

This song is featured in the bong scene in that latest R. Linklater movie "Everybody Wants Some".
Overall, a pretty disappointing effort for Linklater, who has hit some highs and lows. But hearing this song was probably the best bit in that movie.

In my view, among the best god-like songs of all time. Climb the hill. Overcome internal fear. Cast off the chiding remarks of those who won't because of their own fears. The very first chord fills me with encouragement.
This album got overshadowed by Dark Side of the Moon.
This is a mighty fine album. Play more from it!

Not sure if it just came up on rotation or if Bill is playing tribute.
Either way, great to hear this today.

I love this album. It's like Barrett on one side, and the 'new' Floyd on the other. That transition they had to make after Syd lost the plot was nothing short of miraculous. It has to be said that if Syd hadn't taken quite so much LSD, we might never have had the classic Floyd albums we know and love so much. Crazy.

Obscure? very little PF is obscure, except "obscured by clouds". :)
Arguably, this track is now obscure. When was the last time you heard it, other than here on RP? Seems like most young people these days (my kids' generation) know plenty of Pink Floyd, but only because of The Wall, and early stuff like this is foreign to them.Memories of girlfriends in the 70's :-)

These guy's have just ripped off the Charlatans "Here Come's a Soul Saver" - disappointing.
