I like how the distorted voice says: "Silence in the studio!" But was that an accident or something?

Publius has it right, I'm afraid. Pink Floyd was still in the processing stage for this album when they found a newspaper headline that stated a woman got a pacemaker for her heart that was powered by atomic energy so she could survive childbirth. Hence the term ATOM HEART MOTHER. It's as simple as that. No shrooms, no hallucinagens, just a newspaper clipping.

Or not, I don't really know anymore (about it being in the top 4 instrumentals of all time). However, there is a superior 15 minute version of the song without the orchestra. Blasphemy on my part? maybe. But I still prefer the other verion.

But not as good. Excellent though, I got a friend onto PF's trail with this song. It's still his favorite of theirs (go figure).

I think it's about both: part a), Father's shout, is the kind of ominous part at the beginning, like a rumor of war that's started by the people in charge (the "fathers" of the world). Breast Milky starts when the peice randomly goes into the smooth, calming tunes after a couple of measures of dissonance. This is the typical disociation from what's really going on that most people go through during times of war. It continues until the motorcycle, where mother fore takes over, ie, where there's a constant sense of panic, worry, and depression about what's going to happen. This is also the part of the song where the actual war takes place. As I see it, this is the greater majority of the suite. Towards the end, there's a hope that it will all be over soon, but instead it's followed by the oddness of Funky Dung. This peice represents the literal a figurative fallout of the war. Not somewhere you want to be. Following Funky dung is the odd mixture of Mind your throats. It's a convolution of everything previous in the album mixed in a way. At this particular point, there is really no law or order, just people trying to stay alive by any means possible. Probably lots of betrayals and assasinations going on at this time, so you should "watch your throat" - you never know who's out to slit it. Finally, it resolves into Remergeance, which starts as the triumph of someone taking control, or having order, then backs off. Order restored, civilization can now continue, starting off weak, as life typically does, and grows into the full matuirty of a new civilization, having risen from the ashes of it's fallen predecessors. Of course, I wrote this while listening to the song, and I interpretted without doing any prior research. All of this could actually the be furthest thing from the truth, but, that's how I interpretted the song.

thanks to Demau Senae who wrote the unique words of this impressive opera. i didn't manage to understand them. this song is in some way related to neuclear weapons or nuclear power. but what represent the six parts of the song: a) Father's shout, b) Breast milky, c) Mother fore, d) Funky dung, e) Mind your throats please, f) Remergence random title...? don't think so. i would say that remergence is immediately after the explosion but it isn't... any idea?

It's about nothing. Pink Floyd just wanted to sample different types of music throughout the entire "Atom Heart Mother" album and this song reflects that.
