There are people that listen to music and then there are people that feel music. The former is good, but the latter is great! I think @Jamoris1 feels it.
And it wasn't about much of anything, at least not when Claire recorded it. If you watch the interview with her on, I think, the 20th anniversary, she said did it basically as a lark on a Sunday night, asked the band what they wanted, they shrugged, she did 2 1/2 takes to the basic piano skeleton, said "You should have enough now darlings," and left. Never even thought of the session until a friend complimented her on the album a year later. I mean, read whatever you want into it and how it's impacted you, but for Claire it was clearly "about" a session fee and a Stella.
It's so strange that a lot of people put this together intuitively without a single lyric. It was my inclination upon first listen but I wasn't sure if this was the consensus amongst fans .
It hits harder when you know the meaning of this song. The original version was recorded by a single vocalist on a single take and she changed music forever. Check it out.
This is on the dark side of the moon. A concept album that looks at the whole album as an experience to be taken as a whole, rather than a collection of songs.
I want you to picture yourself in 1973 when this album came out. And you're 15 years old. And you sit down at the invite of a friend, in a dark living room with 4-channel surround sound (yes they had it back then). And this album plays. From beginning to end (after flipping sides). There was nothing like it before or since. That's the reason it remained on the Billboard Top 100 albums-of-the-week list for more than 728 consecutive weeks... more than 14 straight years.
Don't have to "picture it". . . . . I lived it, in a buddy's apartment and the primo stereo AND THE DOOBIES!. . . . . DON'T FORGET THE DOOBIES. . . . .
One of Pink Floyd’s greatest songs is ECHOES. It is over 20 minutes long. The original studio version was released in 1971 on the Meddle album. Also in 1971, Pink Floyd performed Echoes live in an empty ancient amphitheater in Pompeii and it was filmed and released to the movie theaters. In the Pompeii version, Echoes was split into part 1 & 2. In 2006, lead guitarist/vocalist David Gilmour and keyboardist/vocalist Richard Wright performed Echoes live in its entirety in Gdańsk, Poland. It was the last time Echoes was performed live. Wright passed away in 2008. I hope you will take the time to react to Echoes in Pompeii by including parts 1 & 2 in the same video. And even if you don’t have time to do the reactions, try to watch all 3 versions of Echoes that I mentioned, just for your own enjoyment and enlightenment.
Personally I have difficulty listening to this version... bc Claires impromptu version is so superior and I'm guessing she used true emotion because they told her how they wanted her to relay the song.Whereas these womens are just copying
I was one of the guys who requested this and I remember saying that it will blow your mind. A lot of people will say that the original album version by clare Tory is the best but I think this stands on it's own merit. For me the three different voice textures add a new dynamic to the performance. I was at this concert and I was an emotional wreck by the end of it. It took me three days to recover and I'd only had two beers. ✌🏻❤🇬🇧
I knew you would love this song. As someone else said elsewhere, the best song you ever heard from Pink Floyd is the one you're listening to at that moment.
Learning To Fly, Mother and Another Brick in the Wall are also awesome!!!! I'm 72 and have loved Pink Floyd for 50 years since The Dark Side of the Moon was released in 1973 and I was 21!❤😊
I think this would be appropriate for listening to right after Time. It's kinda like the soul that is set free. That's how I started over 50yrs ago. Still do and I'm 78. Love me some Pink Floyd, baked or straight!!!
@@stevem-h3562 I guess we knew dat , and the fans knew dat 2, but our host probably did not know it. And it is important to the song...... Clare created and wrote the song on the spot.....and eventually got paid the BIG bucks for her contribution.
@@Rassskle I was taking the piss. And, she didnt write the song on the spot. The song was written by Rick Wright. Torry improvised the vocal part in the studio, which was precisely what she was paid a session fee to do. She had a financial settlement in the late 90s by the members of Pink Floyd, which legally and morally wasnt strictly necessasry as there was nothing legally or morally wrong with the original session arrangement. The only people who say that it was wrong are the ones who know naff all about how sessions work or around song copyrights, writer credits and songwriting. There have been thousands of other cases like this one, most notably Whiter Shade Of Pale and whether the Hammond part was truly recognised as being a part which changed the outcome of the record that the person who played it didnt get the writer credit for. Unless you get a songwriting credit, you only get the mechanicals if you negotiated them and you get the credit for having appeared on the record. Otherwise, all you get is your negotiated settlement fee. Thats it. Thats the way the industry works and its the way its always worked. Pity some of the Torry obsessives dont take the time to learn that instead of thinking that they're the only ones who have ever read the wikipedia article on the song or seen the Classic Albums DVD of Dark Side Of The Moon.
@@stevem-h3562 Rick wrote the music after Clare created ( wrote ) the song and melody with her vocals. A song is sung, the music is the accompanyment. If you want to be really pedantic, the band wrote the music, but Rick gets the credit because he did most of it and it was his baby. For the vocals and melody, the SONG, Rick had zero imput.
The voices you hear saying "I'm not afraid of dying" etc were people working where Pink Floyd were recording Dark Side Of The Moon. Security guards etc and they just asked them questions and added their voices to the intros. This kind of genius is never seen now. I thank goodness I got to see these wonderful artists play live.
Welcome to the Pink Floyd experience. Comfortably Numb and Great Gig are a great introduction to this world class band. Hope you'll get to react to "Time" and "On the turning away" from the awesome Pulse concert too. Thanks for posting and...by the way....the goosebumps will be back...
Richard Wright on keyboards and piano and one of the singers. David Gilmour playing the pedal steel guitar which he plays in another song from this concert you need to see called "high hopes"!
This was originally on the album done with one singer. ONE!! Her name was Claire Torrey. But the band never recruited her for shows, because they didn’t want to share royalties with her. She went 25 years without knowing she was prominently featured in one of the five best selling albums of all time. Nobody told her they used her sample!
Great reaction 👏 the original is worth listening to but I do really think that these three did it justice and though different from the original stayed with the theme beautifully. Each section still carried its designed effect: fear, acceptance and peace. The song is about dyeing and is one of the most moving pieces of music ever.
The blonde woman that started the vocals is non other than Sam Brown who did the beautiful song "Stop", but you really should listen to the album version. The guy on the piano/keyboard was Richard Wright, one of the founding members of Pink Floyd, who is no longer with us.
I`ve been listening to that song for over 40 years and I still get goosebumps. When you said it felt like it was taking you to the sky, you were dead on it without knowing. Welcome to the show man. Floyd is Forever!
You are absolutely right, in this song they use the human voice as an instrument to create emotion. So a question; Is the human voice a wind or string instrument? Because it's the passage of air that makes the vocal cords resonate, so wind or strings? The debate has begun.
Great seeing the next generation finding what I grew up listening to. Only heard a few tracks of Floyd then got took to earls court in 1994 by the local youth club to watch this concert. I was only 14 at the time, totally changed my life beyond amazing
If you start this album at the exact same time you start the movie The Wizard of Oz, the two match up perfectly. When Dorothy puts her ear to the Tin Man’s chest, you can hear a heartbeat. The second side of the album begins exactly as the color part of the movie begins. And Great Gig in the Sky plays during the famous tornado scene.
The title of your video sums up very well my thoughts regarding this vocal performance. - WHAT AN EXPERIENCE!! And to think that initially, this song was only intended to fill the remaining space on the A side of the album.
We told you there's nothing like Pink Floyd. You can't put them in a genre and if you keep going down this rabbit hole you'll hear some things you never thought possible.
Pink Floyd is a very addictive drug, what else is there to say? Individual songs are best suited to reaction videos, but the entire albums are the best way to experience and comprehend Pink Floyd. Their albums are "books"..and you're "reading chapters". It is only when you experience the entire thing that the full meaning, the full understanding, the full appreciation for their genius becomes clear.
You need to listen to the album version of this song. Those three sections were done by one little English woman in 2 takes and spliced together in 1973. Claire Torrey is amazing! The song is about the different stages of death.
🥸 Bonjour JAMORIS je suis fan depuis cette époque là (1994 THE DIVISION BELL ET PULSE ) j'ai 49 ans et quel plaisir de voir cette réaction ça apporte toujours un peu de magie supplémentaire j'ai kiffé à te regarder réagir devant ce morceau de légende écrit par RICK (THE DARK SIDE OF THE MOON est un album incontournable ! surprenant à chaque époque le FLOYD ! ) 🥰 je peux te conseiller la discographie de GOMINA (tape GOMINA CAEN FRANCE sur ta barre de recherche c'est de l'autoproduction ! mais c'est du lourd ! ) j'espere que cela te plaira si tu as l'occasion d'écouter les albums se nomment INTO THE SUNNY GRAY/PRINTS/WHENEVER THE GUYS ARE READY ou WYGAR ne t'attends pas à entendre de la guitare par contre il n'y en as pas NICO V (🎤🥁) PETER (🎹🎤) NICO R (🎹) JULIEN (🪕) j'ai espoir que tu kiffes mec ✌🥸
I haven't heard a "bad" version of this song yet. However, I think the original from the Dark Side of the Moon album sung by Clare Torry is still my favorite. JAMORIS, it would be worth your while to react to that studio version also. The story behind it is very interesting too.
Sam Brown, the blonde singer is a blues performer and had a pop hit on the 80s I saw her singing in a pub in Chester(UK) many years ago. The tall black girl is Durga McBroom. I've had the pleasure to meet her in Rome few years ago she's a nice person. But no version of this song is better than the studio version on The Dark Side of the Moon, sung by Clare Torry who is also credited as author together with Richard Wright
A beautiful lady of color sang these haunting parts on the album, and as good as this lady is on this, the original singer was simply amazing, way better. She came into the studio cold and absolutely killed it. You can hear her very soul poring out.
I dont know if Clare Torre would consider herself a lady of colour.....she is or was a smallish white English jazz singer. But......as a jazz singer, im sure she tried very hard her whole career to sound like a gifted coloured woman.
I really enjoy seeing a younger generation appreciating the music I grew up listening to.
💯
There are people that listen to music and then there are people that feel music. The former is good, but the latter is great! I think @Jamoris1 feels it.
Watching new generations appreciate this restores my faith. Also shows how timeless Pink Floyd is.
The song is about the 3 stages of death, the first singer fighting it, 2nd singer facing death, the 3rd excepting it.
I think you are right for this live version, but the original by Clare Torre was about the 5 stages of death.
*Accepting

I made the staff put this on my CD player while I was coming out of surgery. They all willingly obliged.

The Pulse tour needs to be watched from front to end!! Visually, lyrically and musically, it can't be touched.
Every time I hear this song the hairs on my neck stand up and I feel it down my spine. It actually feels like a static shock
I'm sure it has been said, but you MUST listen to the studio version. It is even more mind blowing.

kind of amazing how a song with no lyrics can evoke so much emotion isn't it?
That's how I feel about Marooned
