The Endless River is the final album by Pink Floyd. It is a ambient, instrumental farewell assembled from various recordings from before the death of keyboardist Richard Wright. It is not meant to be held up against classic albums like The Wall or The Dark Side of the Moon, but it accomplishes what it sets out to do. It is a fine goodbye.

Bellion thinks this is such an original move that he sings the same line over and over for almost a minute, stacking the contrived autotuned harmonies higher with each repetition. This is the absolute low point of the album, not counting the verse that follows immediately after, the song “Carry Your Throne”, the rap verse that is repeated twice in its entirety on “Luxury,” the single “Simple and Sweet,” and, debatably, every other point on the album.
In honor of World Suicide Prevention Day, the Majestic Theater hosted a Robin Williams tribute screening of the movie “Good Will Hunting” this past Thursday.
