"One of the Few" is a song by the British progressive rock band Pink Floyd. It was released as the third track on The Final Cut album in 1983. The song is 1 minute and 12 seconds long. It features a ticking clock in the background and a steady drumbeat. The melody features most of the D minor scale. The lyrics describe a war veteran's return from the battlefield (specifically a pilot from the Battle of Britain, commonly known as The Few) to pursue teaching. The ticking clock continues to the next track, "The Hero's Return", which is sung from the veteran's perspective. This is one of the rejected songs from The Wall, and its working title was "Teach".

  • «One of the Few» (с англ. — «Один из немногих») — песня британской прогрессивной рок-группы Pink Floyd. Она была выпущена в качестве третьей композиции на альбоме The Final Cut в 1983 году. Песня длится 1 минуту и 12 секунд. В ней можно услышать тикающие часы на заднем плане и постоянный барабанный бой. Мелодия выражена по большей части в ре-минорной гамме. Текст песни описывает возвращение ветерана войны с поля боя (в частности, пилота Битвы за Британию, широко известного как «The Few»), чтобы продолжить преподавание. Тикающие часы переходят к следующей песне «The Hero’s Return», который поётся с точки зрения ветерана. Это одна из отвергнутых песен на The Wall, и её рабочее название было «Teach». (ru)
