"The Fletcher Memorial Home" is a song by Roger Waters, performed by Pink Floyd. [1] The song appears on their 1983 album, The Final Cut. [2] It is the eighth track on the album and is arranged between "Get Your Filthy Hands Off My Desert" and "Southampton Dock".
The song is split into distinct segments: a groupie (Trudy Young) performs a monologue ("Oh my God, what a fabulous room!") while a television plays, under which a synthesizer makes atonal sounds, which eventually resolve into a quiet song in C major in 3/4 time ("Day after day / Love turns grey / Like the skin of a dying man."
The founding members of Pink Floyd were Roger Waters, Nick Mason, and Richard Wright, who enrolled at the London Polytechnic at Regent Street in September 1962 to study architecture, [2] and Syd Barrett, two years younger than the rest of the band, who had moved to London in 1964 to study at the Camberwell College of Arts.

"Cirrus Minor" has an unusual chord sequence: E minor, E flat augmented, G major, C♯ minor 7, C major 7, C minor 7 and B 7. The chords are built around the chromatically descending bass line. The B 7, C major 7 and G major chords are the only chords which fit into the functional context of the E minor key.

The grandiose introduction to "Funeral for a Friend" and additional synthesizer parts in "Love Lies Bleeding, were performed during final overdubs and mixing at Trident Studios on an ARP 2500 synthesizer (erroneously credited as A.R.P.) by the album's engineer, David Hentschel, who, John recalled, overdubbed track after track of music and ...
