** The band also had the tendency to indulge in a sort of musical form of [[Prop Recycling]] by reusing sound effects and other bits on their albums, almost as a [[Continuity Nod]]. For example, aside from the [[Book Ends]], the submarine "ping" from "Echoes" shows up in "Hey You", the "[[Careful With That Axe]], Eugene" scream is re-used in "Another Brick in the Wall Pt. 2", "Run Like Hell" and "Two Suns in the Sunset", the distorted whale-noise from "Echoes" is used in "Is There Anybody Out There?", and probably the most extreme example, ''The Final Cut'' cannibalizes sound effects from ''Meddle'', ''Dark Side'', ''Wish You Were Here'', ''Animals'' '''and''' ''The Wall''.
** And tying that into the [[He Also Did]] entry in the Trivia tab - that approaching helicopter sound at the start of "The Happiest Days of Our Lives"? Reused in [[Kate Bush (Music)|Kate Bush]]'s song "Experiment IV". Supposedly, her engineers just couldn't duplicate the overwhelming sound so she just borrowed the actual original effect from Roger.
