This song,.. I heard this song when I was 9. I didn't know the band or title, radio didn't say. Didn't hear it again til I was 22 or so. This is the most beautiful piece of musical fruit I have ever tasted, itellyoowhut man. I wish Tool would remake it. They're the only band that could do it justice. However, Pantera DID do a great job on Black Sabbath's Planet Caravan, so I suppose we never really know until we try. But, I'm NOT gonna try the vaccines. Their scales are not on my eyes, so I see thru the lies of the "elite", the gods of this world. Yea, I see em in movies and shows, I hear em making music, but I also see behind the scenes, things they don't want us to know. Child trafficking has been a problem since Old Testament times,.. it's nothing new. This was just one island, one epicenter of satanism. Call it what you want,.. if you're not believing in Jesus, then you're worshipping the Devil. Jesus said we're for him or against him, there's no middle. Do you like fairness? Do you like joy? Do you like honesty? Do you like the truth? If you said yes, man,.. you need to meet Jesus. He's ALL of that and soooo much more
When I was 16, the boy I had a crush on told me his favorite band was Pink Floyd. I ended up watching this video at midnight and it filled me with unspeakable dread, so of course I bought the album.
The song that made me fall in love with Pink Floyd. This track is so fucking obscure, unsettling and beautifully hunting. It takes you on this powerful, surreal, dark trip. When I hear it, I feel like I'm in this capitalist, industrial world of machinery, and there is a sense of hopelessness. Everything is so bleak. Excellent work by Richard Wright. The song's atmospheres is on point, and I consider it to be David Gilmour's best vocal performance. Severely overlooked song. It's a masterpiece, like the album.
+Raul Ruiz de Velasco - Obscure? I wouldn't call it that. Perhaps relative to "Wish You Were Here" or "Comfortably Numb", but "Welcome to the Machine" is a fan favorite.
This song is and has always been a conversation piece. It stirs up all kind of feelings and thoughts. Pink Floyd was brilliant and their alluring music captured the world's attention. Seriously, how could you not be drawn into their somewhat bizarre world? As for me, I find some of their music bone chilling and the sound effects can be quite spooky. For instance, the beginning of this song sounds like something straight out of a horror movie, it's quite sinister; freaks me out a tad-bit. Of course it doesn't help having ear buds shoved in my ears which seem to magnify the sound even more, duh, But I can't quit listening, because, um, it's Pink Floyd, dammit. And the video? Whew, it too, is a little menacing. I found myself visualising war in America, you know, disturbing mental images of missiles falling from America's virgin skies. ugh and ugh Definitely, a little sobering and frightening to say the least. But hey, if you want to surf some darkness for a few minutes, then click and surf away. I hereby invite you to feel the gloom.
war is so fucking disgusting. war is perverted. you can hear it in the twang to this song. war makes me happy to. happy to get anger and loathing out of your system. i believe it's useful to clear your system by ways of...channeling out these feelings...by...smoking a joint...or punching someone in the face repeatedly till you break their face apart...either or
Sorry, this song means many different things to many different people....This is big brother, this reflects things that are going on now, and have been going on for a long time. People's eyes are becoming clearer...
Syd Barrrett got scammed by pink Floyd because he made "the wall, never the less he is main figure" but was deemed for being mentally ill lost his royalties This Dub over represents how syd;s under standing was relevant to all this technology that existed at the direct time of his performance of this song..
+crispset 1 Syd did not make the Wall. Syd had nothing to do with the Wall. I grew up during the era of The Wall. The Wall was not even about Syd. The Wall was about Roger Waters' dislike for the Pink Floyd arena fans. Roger even stated this on the inside jacket of the double album! Decades later he even apologized for this statement on the Howard Stern show! All Syd ever did was help play on their really shitty first album. You ever hear old 60's Pink Floyd, man? They sucked all to shit. Sounded like someone trying to turn the Beatles into elevator music.
+crispset 1 we may both be wrong"As with Pink Floyd's previous three albums, The Wall is a concept album and explores themes of abandonment and personal isolation. The album is a rock opera that follows Pink, a character whom Waters modelled after himself and the band's original leader, Syd Barrett. Pink's life begins with the loss of his father during the Second World War and continues with abuse from his schoolteachers, an overprotective mother, and the breakdown of his marriage; all contribute to his eventual self-imposed isolation from society, represented by a metaphorical wall. Waters conceived the album during Pink Floyd's 1977 In the Flesh Tour, when his frustration with the audience became so acute that he imagined a wall between the audience and the stage.The Wall features a harsher and more theatrical style than Pink Floyd's previous albums. Wright left the band during its production but remained as a salaried musician, performing with Pink Floyd during the Wall tour. The album was one of the best selling of 1980, and by 1999 it had sold over 23 million"It must have been"Wright left the band during its production but remained as a salaried musician, performing with Pink Floyd during the Wall tour."
crispset 1 Stop reading Wikipedia! The album is a concept album that tries to deal with Roger Waters' distaste for fans. Waters found himself hating his fans. One night, after spitting on a fan, he thought to himself that he would really only enjoy playing live if there were a wall that separated himself from them. All the bullshit about Wright and Barrett are completely wikipedia irrelevant. Buy the fucking vinyl, man. Read what Waters wrote for yourself.
+rofyle to tell you the truth I really don't care. Pink Floyd put out some crappy albums and Rodger waters was lead vocals on those albums. This album Wright was lead vocals and its better than a lot of PF songs. Enjoy reading your albums but I dropped more SYD and mescaline and have a strong understanding as to what they were doing. This youtube video is pure genius and it works well with the video, so just go out and fuck your self.
I would say "Person of Interest" brought me here, but it didn't. I totally knew they HAD to use this song at some point, which they did (SPOILER!!!). My Dad is a huge Floyd fan, so my brother and I are too. This is what real music does, kids. Tells a story, scares us, inspires us, even if we don't quite get it. Wouldn't be surprised if POI's creator is a fan of Floyd.
👍👍👍👍
whats the message?
Andd Pink Floyd R The Best

The Machine is readying its jaws. The Machine is not military equipment. The Machine only works at the behest of The BEAST.

Our life and times are dictated by corporate design. :(
War sucks but isn't "the machine" supposed to represent Sids guitar and not so much the machine of society?
"Where have you been? It's alright, we know where you've been."
Who cares what the song means.. just enjoy it.. Geez

Nice video, goes well with the song.
the media has quite a mixture however, the bullshit violence, wars, hate etc...is no longer exists in my world. it is what one "decides" to feed into.
Find yourself while your here
pink floyd son geniales su musica es de generaciones siempre se escuchara por siempre....
Person of interest, there watching us
Sorry, this song means many different things to many different people....This is big brother, this reflects things that are going on now, and have been going on for a long time. People's eyes are becoming clearer...
Or OPENING AN EYE
Nope. No it's not. It's about Syd losing his mind.
Ian Chiasson Yes! Like 3rd eye....
***** That too. Like I said there is so much open to imagination in their lyrics, the way they present their songs.
you guys do realize this song is about the music industry?
actually this is about how world works
👍
you're thinking of have a cigar
No it's not. It's about Syd losing his mind.
no that would be wish you were here
always agood feeling
~Person of interest~
ive been trying to find this song for the past year and i finally found it
Good song-Wrong Video-ideologies
"Welcome my son. Welcome to the Machine." "Thank you, father. Now step aside while we tear it down." #FeelTheBern
The Machine refers to the music industry, this song is about Syd
+Daniel Chapman If that Bern is B.Sanders you get the prize for the saddest wiggly bear.

Every time I hear this song I think of 1984
+Jack Dilinger i think he means the book....
+Elisabeth Newall Such an amazing (and downright frightening) novel! Orwell is one of my favorites, next to Bradbury.
+Elisabeth wall Orwells 1984, just what the world is becoming.... North Koera is ....
+Elisabeth Newall I think of Metropolis
+Elisabeth Newall f*** Van Halen..........lol
