Us and Them de Pink Floyd, del álbum The Dark Side of the Moon de 1973, explora temas de guerra, paz y la banalidad del conflicto humano. Originalmente, fue creada como parte de la banda sonora para el filme Zabriskie Point de Michelangelo Antonioni, pero no fue seleccionada. La canción pretende destacar la trivialidad de las disputas humanas contra un telón de fondo universal más amplio.
