Added DiffLines:

* FranchiseOriginalSin: The band had used session musicians on previous albums for more complicated parts, but the large cast of session players on this album, even replacing an out-of-practice Nick Mason, led many people to dub this album a David Gilmour solo album in all but name. It's one major reason that this was considered one of the weaker Floyd albums.

* ContestedSequel: Like ''Music/TheFinalCut'' before it, ''A Momentary Lapse of Reason'' is heavily divisive among Floyd fans, largely owing to its dated late 80's production values and the fact that, due to circumstances outside the band's control, it ended up being a David Gilmour solo album in all but name. To some, it's a welcome change of pace after the increasingly bleak tone of the Waters-era albums, while to others, it's clumsy and ill-conceived.

* UnfortunateImplications: The lyrics of "One Slip" come across as misogynistic SlutShaming to some listeners. In a [[https://www.robertchristgau.com/get_album.php?id=5686 retrospective review]] of the album, critic Robert Christgau said the song was "no less sexist than the rape-fantasy cover of Music/RogerWaters's ''Pros and Cons of Hitchhiking.''" This kind of criticism might be a reason that the song was only played live on the album's supporting tour.

* NewbieBoom: Similar to Music/TheGratefulDead and "Touch of Grey" released that same year, the band picked up a new, younger fanbase with this album and the success of "Learning to Fly" on Creator/{{MTV}}. Fortunately, the band didn't suffer as nearly many problems with this new fan base as the Dead did with the "Touch Heads", and successive generations of fans have gotten along pretty well with older Pink Floyd fans.

* VindicatedByHistory: The album has gotten more respect from fans over the years, especially after the remixed version was first made available as part of the ''Later Years'' box set.
