"What Do You Want from Me" is a song by Pink Floyd featured on their 1994 album, ''The Division Bell''. It was composed by Richard Wright, David Gilmour, and his then-girlfriend and subsequent wife Polly Samson. A live version from ''Pulse'' was released as a single in Canada, reaching #28 in the Canadian Top Singles charts. ==Song structure and lyrics== The song is a slow, yet rocking ballad. It has a drum roll introduction, followed by a keyboard solo and then a guitar solo. David Gilmour has agreed with an interviewer that it is a "straight Chicago blues tune", while mentioning he is still a blues fan. In an interview, David Gilmour was asked if the song returned to the theme of alienation from the audience. He responded by saying that it "actually had more to do with personal relationships but drifted into wider territory". There is also speculation that the lyrics are a message to Floyd fans from Gilmour expressing how he feels the fans are always wanting more and more from the band, such as "Should I sing until I can't sing anymore? Play these strings 'til my fingers are raw?", "You're so hard to please", and (song title) "What do you want from me?" The song uses the miracle of walking on water as a sarcastic metaphor.〔(What Do You Want From Me lyrics, Pink Floyd ), Sing365.com.〕 The music borrows almost entirely from "Raise My Rent," an instrumental track from Gilmour's 1978 solo album ''David Gilmour''. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「What Do You Want from Me (Pink Floyd song)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
