"The Wall" is a rock opera presented as a double album by the English progressive rock band Pink Floyd, released in late 1979. It was subsequently performed live, with elaborate theatrical effects, and made into a film.

"The Wall" is a rock opera that centres on the character "Pink". Largely based on Waters' personal life, Pink struggles in life from an early age, having lost his father in war ["Another Brick in the Wall (Part 1)"], abused by teachers ["The Happiest Days of Our Lives"], nurtured by an overprotective mother ["Mother"], and deserted by his wife later on ["Don't Leave Me Now"] - all of which factored into Pink's mental isolation from society, figuratively referred to as "The Wall".

In 2003, Rolling Stone magazine listed The Wall as #87 in Rolling Stone's 500 Greatest Albums of All Time. ( Edited by Schligge)
