I am working on cleaning up this article along with completing the two parts of this song.

more trivia: The choir singing "All in All it's just..." sounds very close to German "Hol ihn, hol ihn unters Dach" (Get him, get him under the roof). --84.56.223.181 15:19, 17 June 2006 (UTC)
Sounds like a "Floydish" thing to do. --Eddie 13:09, 10 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Teacher's voice
Does the school teacher's voice belong to John Cleese? --Ceaser 20:29, 5 May 2006 (UTC)
I seriously doubt it.
The teacher's voice belongs to the late British character actor Alex McAvoy. He played the part in the Wall movie. --Sk'py Skwrrrl 21:48, 21 July 2006 (UTC) ^^i thought waters would have done it on the album
[edit] Occasions this song was used
I have heard it was used during the Tiananmen Square protests of 1989, but I can not confirm this evidently. Does someone know more? Wandalstouring 11:03, 12 August 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Seperate the three songs
All three parts of "Another Brick In The Wall" are independent songs - or at least as independent as any other pieces within the broader context of "The Wall" - and really should have their own pages. The page for the whole trilogy is too messy and over-emphasises part 2.
[edit] Miscrediting
"Another Brick In The Wall" did not appear on the Resident Evil soundtrack. It did however appear on the soundtrack to the movie The Faculty and was covered by Class of 99.--Marr0w 05:52, 8 September 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Missing Trivia
Someone removed all the trivia listing the common mishearings around the world claming "needs reference, I've never heard of anyone mishearing, therefore it can't be that many" (22:03, 11 May 2006 by User:M4bwav). So let me get this right, becouse this one person never heard of it, it never happens? I'm sure that there are many things in this world that exists with out his knowledge. It's my assesment that these trivia items that were removed are some of these bits of knowledge that exists and yet are unknown to him. My question is, do other people feel that this content (which was provided by multiple people) adds value to the artical and should be allowed to say?--Ceaser 10:30, 14 September 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Seperating pages.
The three parts of "Another brick in the Wall" should have their own pages. Part III has only got a sum-up of the plot, it needs more information (about the sound effects, for example). Part II has good information, which should be fitted into a seperate page.
[edit] Gilmour says
"Even the songs that Roger supposedly wrote by himself, it's never the full story. You can never say exactly what happened when that record was made. The whole ending part of 'Another Brick in the Wall (Part 2)', he didn't write the guitar solo or the chords in that section. He didn't make up the drum parts, the rhythm. I'm not going to abandon something I've worked really hard on, or feel I had something major to do with, just because it says Roger wrote it. Life is too short." - David Gilmour
I'm gonna put this in the page. If someone think it's wrong, reply here.
[edit] German
The trivia section currently contains the following:
- In the Part of the Childs-Chourus can you hear "Hohl, ihn, hohl ihn unter's Dach!"
Is there any evidence this was intentional or in any way meaningful, as oppose to someone (an editor of this article?) going "hmm....that's odd"? If not I will remove it. --Black Butterfly 18:59, 7 December 2006 (UTC)
