Breathe (Pink Floyd song)

[2] The authorship and composition of this song is credited to David Gilmour and Richard Wright for the music and Roger Waters for the lyrics.

[2] Since this track segues into "Breathe" via a sustained backwards piano chord, the two are conjoined on most CD versions of the album.

[7] Along with the other Pink Floyd tracks "Time" and "The Great Gig in the Sky", "Breathe" is seen as Gilmour "carving out a more distinctive style" with the introduction of blues-based chords and solos.

Pink Floyd bassist Roger Waters released "Breathe" alongside "Speak to Me" on 21 September 2023 as the third single in promotion of his seventh studio album, The Dark Side of the Moon Redux, a complete recreation of the original album The Dark Side of the Moon.

[19] Around early 2023, Waters announced that in celebration of the 50th anniversary of The Dark Side of the Moon, he would be releasing a complete recreation of the record that wouldn't feature the rest of Pink Floyd members, trying to re-address the emotional and political statements made on that record.
