This album is a masterpiece. Period.
Indeed
Well, it's 72 minutes of continous sound and should be heard from start to finish. NicknLex are not getting good advice: the opening line is a reference to the previous song, "And I grieve for my sister."
@@scherado01 totally agree.
This album is a masterpiece. The tittle track will move you to a dark place.
This was the first solo album I bought from roger
Jeff Beck's guitar and the ending were like mix between Floyd and dire straits, beautiful song from a brilliant album.
It is a masterpiece. I agree with others here. But this song for me, holds a special place. Roger and his cohorts lyrical and acoustical capabilities collided with my finally having audio equipment worthy of it. This song, on the right headset, or in any well setup audio environment, mmmm mmm mmmm.
Amused to death and Pros and Cons of Hitch Hiking are both fine albums, highly recommended. Haven't heard them in a long time, so this is awesome. Waters is an amazing lyricist and as time goes by I'm learning to love his singing more and more as well. Not what is stereotypically perceived as beautiful but amazingly expressive and emotive. 👍👍
On the first song on the album "The Ballad of Bill Hubbard" guitarist Jeff Beck uses his technique of playing melodies by bending harmonics with his whammy bar. Beck first used this technique on his 1989 song "Where Were You" from his "Guitar Shop" album. The album "Amused To Death" also uses Q-Sound - a process where certain sounds and instruments will appear to come from outside of the stereo spectrum if you are sitting in the mid spot between the speakers. Sometimes dog barks sound like they are coming from next door.
I love the guitar on that song
So many great tracks on Amused to Death. I really love Watching TV and The Bravery of Being Out of Range. But I rate this album up with DSOTM.
Indeed. I also really like Too much rope and What God wants pt.2.
Not only overlooked but a completely underrated album if ever there was one.
Glad you did this so you can listen to whole album soon (I know I sent it to you). Once you hear it all at once you will realize how great it is. You will like the bleed overs when you just listen to it all!
I would love to hear you do perfect sense part 2 off this album. There is a cool part in the middle where he has famous sports announcer Marv Albert announcing the war like it is a game!
Waters is the master of musical storytelling! Definitely a masterpiece.
Reading the lyrics helps emensly.
This and the album it came off is a highlight of Rogers solo work
AMAZING album! Thanks for checking out this track. Please also consider 'Watching TV' from the same album.. Cheers.
Great album and love Jeff Beck so it's really great he's on as a guest appearance. You will love the next track and that's without me playing the next reaction. Lol - Love Roger's dry sense of humour, which is prominent on all his albums....OK - onto the next track.
Yes! On to the next track. ✨🤪
When you saw Roger Waters you must have seen my friend Dave Kilminster on lead guitar, stage left.
I don't know why I've never delved into Roger's solo work much, especially considering I'm a huge Floyd fan. And I've heard most of David's solo work. I'm getting subtle Mark Knopfler vibes in parts, both on the guitar and vocally. Am I crazy? I just may be. The lunatic is on the grass... I really like this, I'll have to download it.
I always thought Knopfler sounded like a cross between Dylan and Waters.
@@lionelraoul glad I'm not the only one that hears the similarities.
@@lionelraoul I hear the Dylan in Knopfler as well.
Yeah, Jeff Beck is the guitarist on this track. He plays on 8 of the songs from this album. Eric Clapton was the featured guitarist from his first album, The Pros and Cons of Hitch Hiking, and Andy Fairweather-Low was the featured guitarist on Radio K.A.O.S.
Personally, I listen to Roger Waters far more than I listen to Pink Floyd. But, then again, I listen to Roger Hodgson more than Supertramp, and I listen to Jon Anderson FAR more than I listen to Yes.
Me too! I never listen to Gilmours stuff. I've tried but this just moves me/you. Can't say more than that.
Hi Nick ‘n’ Lex! Have to agree with Nick about “Radio K.A.O.S” . Often overlooked, it is yet another
masterpiece from Roger Waters. Was lucky enough to catch the Minneapolis show during his tour,
and wow - a phenomenal concert. I like the mix tape you folks have in the background. Way cool.
Phenomenal track. Helped me through very trying times in my early life.
Try "What God Wants", also with Jeff Beck
Amazing album
Well done for reacting to this album I dont think anyone on youtube has reviewed this before
Well done guys
The species has amused itself to death. So true.
Hate to be that asshole but it's This species has amused itself to death.
Always reminded me of similar voices talking about death from “Big Gig in the Sky” (they could be leftover voice recordings from that). And Dogs.
But really nice, dreamy selection. Thanks, Mauricio. Great reaction, N&L. But ... the real star 🌟 of this video: Marley. He seemed to perk up when the dog barked. Lol. Too cute - that doggie profile!! Thanks ✨🤪
Doesn't get much more Earphone Music than this. It's so ironic and/or sad that this would have sold millions and millions more copies if only the name "Pink Floyd" had been on the cover instead.
So true. But I think it is even more sad that people get so hung up on "labels" such as band names and especially genre names.
I bought this album twice, first on cassette when it came out, then CD a few years later.
One of the greatest albums ever made!
" amused to death" The greatest concept album. Best lyric from title song " out in the valley warm and clean,. the little ones sit by their TV screens,> no thoughts to think,> no tears to cry,.all suck dry. now add phones and computer screens
Radio Kaos is ...in my opinion...one of the most overlooked albums of all time..........A must listen in my opinion.
To be honest I just wasn’t thinking. The bleed over never even crossed my mind sorry about that but I loved your reaction! 👍🏽👍🏽🙏🏽✌🏽❤️
Thanks for making the request.
@@RoverT65536 Hey w you’re welcome I wanted to request the whole album but those requests were already sold out.
"Amused to Death" and "The Pros and Cons of Hitch-Hiking" are both amazing albums, and wildly different, with 'Hitch-Hiking' featuring guitar work from Eric Clapton and 'Amused to Death' from Jeff Beck.
Nick, I'm curious if you've heard this: In the early 2000s, a fellow on the internet called Chad released a bootleg extended edition of Radio KAOS that incorporated several B-sides and thematically-relevant tracks from the "Where the Wind Blows" soundtrack, with a few interstitials, and I think it makes a pretty wild difference in elevating a somewhat abrupt, unfocused record into something truly special. Check it out if you haven't heard of it, it's called "Project KAOS"!
Waters take you to places that are uncomfortable to make you think. Wonderful album
He had me at: Jeff Beck on guitar
Oh yeah me too!
Este álbum es una belleza! Tienen que escucharlo completo
"Perfect sense" by this man👌
Amused to death. Perfect album.
The album, like The Wall, has to be listened to as a whole piece.
This album is incredible. Some of Jeff Becks Guitar work. If you haven't done it, you gotta do "what god wants" parts 1,2 & 3. Little factoid : Jeff Beck did this entire album in one take improv. Learned that from an interview with Roger Waters.
Roger , the genious 🇵🇹🍻
Probably the pinnacle of Roger Waters solo music is the closing four songs of Amused to Death. (Although I would say that this one is the weakest of the four.) You should definitely listen to all four.
I believe that is Don Henley from the Eagles at the beginning saying (And I Grieve For My Sister)
It's Waters screaming it, but Henley does sing on the preceding song.
@@GatorScribe726 yeah i wasn't sure I just knew he sang on the album
The opening with the woman telling the story of how she tried to commit suicide along with her children, only to survive because she couldn't afford the bigger gas bottle. Brings me to tears every time.
I never knew what the hell she was talking about... thanks for that.
Waters is presenting this idea whether to choose to do the right thing or be selfish. A genie shows up to grand Waters three wishes. But in his effort to wish change the course of past events that are the source of his current pain, an opportunity of love presents itself. Soon he becomes regretful and contemplates that perhaps he should live with the pain and settle with having a lover in his future. Instead he's left alone with the regret, and the circle repeats itself. Three wishes that solved nothing.
"I went to buy a....a gas bottle. At first I wanted to buy a big one,
but then I hadn't got enough money, so I had to buy a smaller one. And I
think if I bought a bigger one, then it would have been... the way I
wanted it.
And then, er, we went down, and ahm, I put the children to bed. And I tidied the flat and everything.
And then they were asleep and everything was a kind of night. I made a
bed in the bathroom. I carried them there and put on the gas bottle.
But today when I think back peh.. about that. If God did take me, then I would've been in hell because I wasn't right."
the woman is talking about how she tried to kill the whole family, but she survived
This whole album is amazing plz react to more waters
Radio K.A.O.S.! Amazing! :)
You want to "Come Dancing" with us, me and Jeff Beck, we want to see you "Come Dancing" to the album Wired.
This album is as good as any Floyd album, a true masterpiece. The guitar solo is by Jeff Beck, my favourite guitarist
Featuring a story about a woman gassing her children to death. Waters is such an upbeat, fun songwriter lol
yeah, the first line, was an echo of a line in, watching tv, the track before this one
R.I.P. Jeff Beck 🙏🏽🕊♥️
The video for this makes it work better for me.
Waters ...the genious
pink floyd songs always get me into a trance like state lmao i just feel them on a different level
Suggestion: Jefferson Starship "Blows Against the Empire"
Would you guys be interested in reacting to one of my songs from my next album?
This is a great album, but it should be listened to in order.
what would this album be like with Pink Floyd?...what was lost by breaking up?
I've really enjoyed his covid session video recordings, especially the John Prine covers!
Me too
Those backing singers are amazing
Great material! Thanks for mentioning that. ✨🤪
Amused to Death is as good as anything Floyd did....that's a mouthful What God Wants , God gets God Help us All
He didn't have Gilmour, that's right. But he had f...g JEFF BECK!!!!
The guitariste is Jeff Beck
i love this Roger Waters is unbelievable -one of the greatest artist and human in in the world in in my life
Thanks so lot - please hear also Ca ira -i love this
Greets from germany
best guitar playing by Jeff Beck not David Gilmour !!!
for me Roger ist the hero from PF not David Gilmour - hear his Solo albums und his political activty and look at Gilmours sleepy solo works
Ca Ira would be a bit left field but it would be interesting to see what Nick and Lex would make of it. I suspect it would be their first opera reaction.
@@alangillespie what is bad on left -hearts also left ...and i thing , in the beginning and in the end we are all equal (RW) be human and help to make a better world for each other.....you can born teheran or in kandahar ....its a coinsidence
all the best for you from germany
Roger is best consumed while "medicated".
Comfortably numb in other words😂
How much would it cost to have ya'll listen to the entire album all the way through in one video?
Have you done the pros and cons of hitchhiking? If not please treat yourself
It's nice to hear impressions and discussions of Roger's solo work. I hope you continue and increase interest in his underrated albums.
There is a nice video of this passage in which Roger's second wife, Priscilla Phillips, appears:
m.ua-cam.com/video/SWEPrenL5d8/v-deo.html
This is my least favourite track on the album, and it's a great track.
Radio Kaos is his best work
Not even the Pink Floyd moniker would have saved this musical mess. Personally I don't like it at all.
Ok Justin Bieber 👏
@@davidbrown3971 😂 okay, that one hit hard. All good👍
