next_no = 3"If" is a song byPink Floyd on their album "Atom Heart Mother ". Written and sung byRoger Waters , it is about self-analysis. LikeGrantchester Meadows before it, "If" carries on apastoral and folky approach, but instead deals withIntrospection and self-deprecation.The song was only performed live once by the band, at a
John Peel session, inJuly 16 ,1970 , atBBC 's Paris Theatre,London . Unusually during that performance, Rick Wright plays both organ and bass. However, Waters did perform it numerous times on his solo tours, mainly during the 1984/1985 'Pros and Cons' tour, and in support ofRadio K.A.O.S. in 1987.Personnel
