Follow Alice down the rabbit hole with Pink
Floyd The Wall. Roger Waters's entire paranoid, dystopian opus (minus
Comfortably Numb) is set to the Disney flick of Lewis Carroll's Alice
in Wonderland. All the ususal suspects are there - the white rabbit,
tweedledee and tweedledum, the walrus and the carpenter, the mad hatter,
and the Queen and Cheshire Cat - but with all new twists and turns.
The
final trial is a purrfect match.
Imagine another
way to listen to this album than sitting alone in the dark!
The
Set-Up |
Cue The Wall
(Disk One) to begin at the very first image of the film - the
title card. Once the disk has run its course pause the film, insert
The Wall (Disk Two) and unpause both simultaneously. The track
Comfortably Numb (track #6) must be skipped. The film and album
should end at precisely the same time.

Test |
In the first
song, In the Flesh, the lyrics "when a crack in the
ice appears" should correspond precisely to Alice's dipping
her finger into a pool of water making a series of rippling waves.
