I didn't listen to this today because I listened to it this weekend! I was watching this youtube documentary about a youtube channel making a parody of the Wall movie (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rokAtlFGa7Y) and ended up watching the movie and listening to the album. The songs are haunting and poignant, they feel personal and universal. There is a reason this is considered one of the best albums of all time.
