An excerpt of the music is featured on Echoes: The Best of Pink Floyd. The piece was written by David Gilmour and Richard Wright. The song has sounds that describe the setting as an island (such as seagulls and waves crashing on the shore).The song was composed while jamming aboard the Astoria in early 1993. The high-pitch guitar sounds on the track came from a Whammy pedal which makes the guitar sound an octave higher, also known as a pitch shifter. Alike to "Is There Anybody Out There?" this song also used the shrill siren-like sound effect of the song "Echoes". The track was given a Grammy Award in the category of Best Rock Instrumental Performance at the Grammy Awards of 1994. The song has a video in which various tropical islands appear from a helicopter view. A beautiful woman is seen on the Island.
