Pink Floyd’s Only UK No. 1 Single: Another Brick in the Wall (Part 2)

Despite decades of album dominance, Pink Floyd only scored one UK No. 1 single: “Another Brick in the Wall (Part 2)” in 1979. It spent four weeks at the top and became their best-known hit, though the band themselves disliked being reduced to a pop single.

Their next highest-charting UK single is “See Emily Play” from 1967, which peaked at No. 6. “Arnold Layne” reached No. 20, and later era tracks like “Money” stalled at No. 21. So the answer is yes—one single did reach No. 1, and it remains their only chart-topper in the UK.
