My friend has these pictures up on the wall. What do you think he's crazy about?
(These pictures have a common link, and the correct answer will explain each image in the same way.)
HINT:
The title is also a clue.

Oh well, to me, your friend is almost surely
a devoted Pink Floyd fan (and how could he not?)
The images represent
Pink Floyd songs: Dogs, Money, Eclipse, Time.
And the title, well,
the album The Wall
Also, about the description: I would say that
'crazy' could go very well with "Shine On You Crazy Diamond" in particular, and with a good half of their discography in general.

$\begingroup$ Great job! There's one more song reference in the description before the pictures. Think you can find it? $\endgroup$ Commented Jun 25, 2015 at 10:14

$\begingroup$ Right, I just added a possible explanation for that $\endgroup$– AiorosCommented Jun 25, 2015 at 10:19

$\begingroup$ If these are indeed the intended theme and answers, you need a different pic for the 3rd answer -- a crescent moon at night specifically indicates that there is no [intended 3rd answer]. $\endgroup$– Rosie FCommented Jul 28, 2016 at 7:08

$\begingroup$ There is another song that relates to one of the images. $\endgroup$– dacabdiCommented Nov 19, 2017 at 2:51

Although it's already answered, I was convinced that the answer was something along the lines of
Things that go away and then come back
1st
Dogs play fetch (go out and come back)
2nd
There is a rubber band on the bill (stretches out then snaps back)
3rd
The moon goes up then back down every day
4th
This is the one that makes it kind of a stretch, but the watch hands go up and back down
-
1$\begingroup$ +1, good thinking. You were able to use one line to explain the idea, and the watch stretch isn't all that far-fetched too. $\endgroup$ Commented Jun 25, 2015 at 12:32

$\begingroup$ For number 2, I thought it would be "spend money to make money". $\endgroup$ Commented Jun 26, 2015 at 6:44

Seems a bit obvious, but maybe he's crazy about
dogs.
Picture 1:
running dogs.
Picture 2:
a 100-dollar bill is called a C-note, so C-dogs or seadogs.
Picture 3:
moondogs.
Picture 4:
watchdogs.

$\begingroup$ No, it's much more straightforward than that. C-Note is a not so straightforward arc to reach seadogs. $\endgroup$ Commented Jun 25, 2015 at 9:21

Is it
Running/a run
Because:
Two dogs running, money run the world (or not running out of money), a moon running low (yes, there is such a thing, if it is high it is "riding high"), and time is running out (we have like less than 30 minutes till noon/midnight).
-
$\begingroup$ Interesting, but you missed the last line. You don't need to make up different explanations for each picture. There is one line that can sufficiently explain all pictures. $\endgroup$ Commented Jun 25, 2015 at 9:15
-
1$\begingroup$ @CodeNewbie I assumed "running" explains each image. $\endgroup$– dmgCommented Jun 25, 2015 at 9:17
-
$\begingroup$ Not without your explanation of how money runs the world, moon runs low, time runs out. Here, run has a different interpretation in each case. $\endgroup$ Commented Jun 25, 2015 at 9:19
-
1$\begingroup$ @CodeNewbie Golden, could also "explain" each image. Are you looking for a full sentence? $\endgroup$– dmgCommented Jun 25, 2015 at 9:20
-
$\begingroup$ Yes, one sentence/phrase that fits all. $\endgroup$ Commented Jun 25, 2015 at 9:22

If we consider that the objects are:
Dogs (from Animals) or Dogs of war (from A momentary lapse of reason), Money, The dark side of the moon, and Time.
We notice that they are:
All Pink Floyd songs.
Also:
Your friend posted them on a Wall (The Wall).
So:
Your friend likes Pink Floyd.

1$\begingroup$ Welcome to Puzzling! Good work with drawing the connection between the images, but unfortunately, someone else got there first. But while you're here, why don't you just quickly take the tour? I'm just going to edit your post so that not everything is in one spoiler, I hope you don't mind. $\endgroup$ Commented Nov 18, 2017 at 23:22
