For that song I wouldn’t have chose these two parts. I would’ve gone for Part 1 and Part 3. Instead of a sequel Part 2 feels like a separate installment if you get what I mean.
Plus that’s kind of cheating. Is every prog song split into multiple parts considerable for this? Like also from Pink Floyd, Wish You Were Here (the suite?) is split into two large sections, and the folksy Pigs on the Wing acts like a storybook introduction and ending split into two parts and put at the start and end of the album.
There’s a ton more examples like that. Especially on concept albums. The Beach Boys’/Brain Wilson has Wonderful, Song for Children (Look), Child is Father of the Man, and Surf’s Up exploring the same idea and building on top of one another.

The suite on Wish You Were Here (album) is called Shine On You Crazy Diamond.
oops
coincidentally i think the actual wish you were here song is also a folksy one but more rock
There’s so many multi-part pink floyd songs it ain’t even funny. Its pretty much every single album except some of the early ones
Time > Great Gig in the Sky
That’s basically why they sued to not allow their songs to be sold as singles.
they what?
They sued iTunes or so for selling songs as single downloads.
i agree but i think that one’s just a good transition
lol it’s a song about growing old followed by a song about death
Would you say Gig is a sequel to Breathe?
