Not necessarily for a reaction, but for yourself, try to set aside an hour (a bit less) of your time to listen to this whole album, in order - in a darkened room just by yourself. Headphones on, no distraction. It's timeless and sheer genius and it may even change your life. The pinnacle of the golden age of the concept album.
Kevin is spot on.
Listen to Kevin! Headphones w/o possibilities of any interruptions!
Or look for the wizard of oz version.
Couldnt tell you how many nights i fell asleep with my headphones on listening to the dark side of the moon.
Yeah kevin I bet she's off to do all that as I type this.
As a man past 60 it brings such joy to see a younger generation react to the brilliance of Pink Floyd. The true test of great music is its ability to become timeless.
Thank you very much
Clare Torry walked into the studio and captured lightning in a bottle in two takes with minimal, if any preparation. Simply extraordinary.
🥰🥰🥰
They paid her 30 pounds and a beer...years later she was able to win writing credits for her performance.
Thank you choosing the original, as Clare Torrey’s improvised creativity has, for me, never been remotely approached by the extremely talented vocalists that have performed this classic. Ms. Torrey conveys emotional feels that other performers just fail to emote with their own vocalizations. Brava!
My Pleasure! She is for sure very talented! Thank you for your kind comment!
Pulse version is excellent. I might even give it the nod to being better. Of course, Clare set the bar high and was the original.
@@briankuczynski4375 Of course, these are subjective opinions, for me the extremely accomplished vocal gives a different take which is nice, but doesn’t take me on the emotional journey and give the “feels” time and again like the original artist. Many, especially younger fans, prefer the Pulse, which I wouldn’t disparage, as the listener’s mileage can be expected to vary. Good music will survive, not only in recording and film, but as new artists interpret it over the generations. The power& inspiration of the music lives on. 👍🏻
Delicate sound of thunder live version is super good.
I've heard this song a thousand times and STILL get chills. What a great choice!
Fifty years later, and this still gives me chills
🥰🥰🥰
@@AaliyahCapiliI think you would enjoy their Meddle album as well. All the best. Always.
And it is still the gold standard in studio production. Incredible
Ditto
Clare Torry was told only that she was to represent vocally (without words) the five emotional stages one goes through when they are dying. First, Denial, then Anger, Bargaining, Depression and finally Acceptance. Her performance was totally improvised and was done over 2 1/2 takes !
Thanks for sharing🌺
one of the greatest vocal performances of all time.
🥰
I just felt through your reaction what I felt 40 years ago,in 1984, when I listen it for the first time, I was 14 at the time. Thank you for that my love.
This album gets even better as you age, it really is timeless.
😍😍😍
+Bealzabahb I'm sorry but this album is not time-less at all: it actually has a track called "time" !! ;-)
He is the best until end of time !
When Richard Wright, the keyboardist, died in 2008, it was this song that was sung at his funeral by Durga Mc Broom, one oftheBackgroundsinger fromthePinkFloydWorld Tour. This was his express wish during his lifetime. The rumor persists that none other than Jon Lord accompanied on the piano.
Thanks for sharing🌺
McBroom was the best of the three backing vocalists on the Momentary Lapse tour. But I thought the overall performance of the band was phoned in when I saw them. And the three ladies, even including McBroom, were a pale echo of Torry’s performance.
This amazing tune is usually heard right after Time from the same, historical album, Dark Side of the Moon. You should hear that album in one listen to get how ground breaking and sonically futuristic this was in 1973.It looks at universal themes for humanity and is utterly brilliant. It is always in the conversation for best album ever. Enjoy! 🎵🎸🎤🎹🎷🎶
Thank you for ur suggestion!
@@AaliyahCapili The whole album is less than an hour long, and is one of the best ever made. Enjoy!
Yeah if people are listening to songs outside of the context of an album they are robbing themselves of something quite special.
She's singing about the stages of dying. Denial, Anger, Bargaining and finally Acceptance.
This album remained on the top 100 albums for 14 years (736 weeks). It was certified Platinum 14 times in the UK. It sold over 45 MILLION copies of the album. A testament to how brilliant this album truly was. Their songs are still in rotation on my classic rock stations even today. Side note, saw them twice in the late 1980's and they were just amazing to watch in concert.
The crazier the world gets, the more sense this song makes.
🥰
What Clare Torrey did here was phenomenal. She tells a story about a woman dying and the fear we all have about our own mortality and finally the peace and acceptance of death...All without lyrics!
Must be heard on headphones.
….and she walked away from the session believing that she had totally messed up,. Too embarrassed to ask how she did.
@@christianweller4288 Turns out she did pretty well!
@@clivenewman4810 Absolutely! Her reason for the embarrassment was “the Floyd’s “ awkward silence after the session. Probably too stunned to speak.
@@christianweller4288 Weren't we all?!
She is expressing the 5 stages of grief proving words aren’t always needed to get message across.
You should also check out the live version from Pulse tour & Comfortable Numb. Trust me we won’t mind this song twice. Drove 28 hours round trip to see them on that tour. Tied for best concert I attended
Yes she definitely proves that. It’s super impressive to see. Also thank you for ur suggestion!
Are you in Canada?
@@brad6576 no middle USA but 2 nearest venues sold out
That's actually an urban myth or whatever you want to call it, sorry. Clare Torry herself has said she was given no direction when she went in to the studio to sing this, and in the end she basically just decided to try to use her voice like another instrument in the composition. She never says anything about trying to express the 5 stages of grief.
@@supertrexandroidxmmm…the band members were the ones letting her know what the song was actually about. You are correct in that initially, she wasn’t well-informed enough…but that’s only because Floyd wanted her utterly raw take on it. Her initial attempt at the vocal track didn’t quite jive with what they wanted to hear from her, so they explained it in more detail. After said explanation, she understood much better, and her second go was much closer to what the band wanted. 🤷🏼♂️
Im almost 60 and still get chills from this song. seeing your facial expressions says it all..
Oh thank you so much🥰
This is the only song that makes me cry every time I hear it.
Thanks for sharing🌺
The whole Dark side of the Moon album is a treat... A work of art . ; ))
Thanks for letting me know!!
Its all about Time, your lifetime and lunacy. It IS considered the best example of progressive rock music as art.
So happy you started with this studio version! ❤ That is the late, great Richard Wright on piano. The man was an utter genius and imo the soul of the band. Great reaction!
Thank You I am glad you are happy with it! I agree, He was definitely a genius.
@@AaliyahCapili Now you are ready to experience them live. Unlike anything you've probably ever seen before. This same song live features 3 different ladies singing Clare's part. Def worth a look when you get a chance. Stay safe young lady!! Much love ❤🇺🇸
One of the one off Rock and roll miracles. Glad you enjoyed it.
My pleasure!
One off? I want to try and understand your intent, because parsing this in a standard way makes it seem an absurd thing to say. Pink Floyd's average amazingness is extremely high, they have no "duds" that I am aware of. This happens to be my favorite Floyd, and overall one of the best songs I have ever heard, but I could easily name at least 10 masterpieces from the top of my head from this superstar band.
I'm 58 and bought this Album with my pocket money when it first came out, I still have it, but it no longer plays due to being worn, so had to buy another, it brings a smile to my face when I see young people as yourself listening to and appreciating this masterpiece all these years later, Clare Torry's vocals are amazing, but credit should also be given to the late Richard Wright's beautiful keyboard arrangement on this track 🇬🇧
Nobody ever wants to give Alan Parsons for putting this together.
Really? You bought a Pink Floyd album when you were 8 years old. Give your head a wobble.
@@mp3vault yep, had heard my friends dad playing it and was just overwhelmed by it, so had to go and buy it
Thank you very much Mr. Gary, for sharing🌺
I've been listening to this song for almost 50 years and I still get goosebumps
😍😍😍
A lot of people have misheard the last spoken words as those which you found. But the actual phrase is, 'I never said I was frightened of dying," which was spoken by Patricia Watts, the wife of one of the road managers. I think the actual words are much more powerful than the misheard ones.
^ This
Yeah I hate how those misheard lyrics keep gaining a foothold because the actual quotes have been confirmed for decades. No fault here for her, but anyone putting forth lyrics on these lyrics sites ought to do due diligence.
Thanks for sharing🌺
She features much less prominently on the preceding song "Time" too. I think you would like hearing that one too (or even reacting too it) . "Time" has some of the best lyrics. My fav is "hanging on in quiet desperation is the English way. The time is gone, the song is over Thought I'd something more to say.". Very charming & knowledgeable reactions to great music. Thanks.
She did not sing on Time. That was Doris Troy and Lesley Duncan. This was the only song Clare Tory sang on.
The entire album is super deep. I don’t believe anyone should be taught music and not be told to listen to this album from front to back. It’s not only inspiration for musical reasons, but for emotional and philosophical as well it will stay with you the rest of your life.
🌺🌺🌺
When I was 16 ..this was a new release
Imagine hearing this type of music in 1973
It was ground breaking, the Album is highly regarded
as one of the best of all time
Watch it live it's incredible..Pink Floyd 1994 pulse concert
Oh thanks so much for sharing💕
For me, it is hard to accept it was 50 years ago that this album was released. It has been in the top 200 billboard forever. The Great Gig in the Sky still gives me goosebumps. I am so glad you young professional musicians appreciate how great Clare Torry's improvisation was.
Thanks for sharing
PinkFloyd is the best. Their albums are best listened to all at once, instead of on song at a time. If you get the chance, listen to this one, Dark Side of the Moon, all the way through. Preferably like you said - at night when it's quiet and you're alone. Life changing. 🤯
Thank You for ur suggestions!
+Weed
take the time to listen to the whole album, I prefer listening to the CD so that there are no interruptions between tracks since a lot of them flow into the next…
No other version of this song, regardless of who performed it, could ever touch the pure majesty of Clare's original performance. This really is just the tip of Pink Floyd. They have a very, very deep rabbit-hole you can fall into. From instrumentals like "Obscured by Clouds", to very cerebral songs like "Brain Damage/Eclipse". Sorry for the pun, and you have to listen to a version of Brain Damage that includes Eclipse. So many fabulous pieces of sonic art to choose from. To stay away from ones that are often recommended, I'd suggest something like "Free Four", and "Interstellar Overdrive" to get a feel for their earlier style, the two previously mentioned above, and any two consecutive songs from "The Wall".
Thanks for sharing🌺
i have been listening to these vocals since the 70s and I still get goos bumps, loved the look on your face when the vocal started
Thank You!
You are adorable, keep listening to great music
Thank you 🤗
The Greatest Female vocal of all time.
😍😍😍
I love how deeply immersed you got with this reaction. As someone who listens to almost all genres of music I think your open-mindedness is wonderful.
Agreed 👍🏼
Agree. Every musician can learn from all other forms of music and should indulge a wide variety of music to better inform and inspire their own creations. And there are few better listens than DSOTM from beginning to end; uninterrupted. And yet Time, this song, Money and Us and Them still work well as standalone songs. They are better as a package and the others I feel definitely only really work in the context of the album. Bottom line - it’s a masterpiece of 20th century music, plain and simple.
Thank you very much for your kind words🌺
Clare Torry was called in to improvise the vocals she did 2 and 1/2 takes they paid her around $25 they didn't think they was going to use her cuts but they took parts of the 2 and 1/2 and made it work. She sued Floyd and they settled in 2005 they made millions off that song its only right to give her a big cut..❤
Yup I agree she deserves a big cut
The band members were in favor of Claire getting her fair cut after the album was a hit, it was the record company that provided resistance.
@@johngalt97 yes it's always the record company. Blood sucking devil's. Boy the story's I have to tell about satanic record labels. But I want to live a little longer. 👹☠️
OF COURSE she deserved more than the original miserable amount she was paid... as has been pointed out in the past by others, Clare Torrey WROTE that incredible, amazing piece of music in addition to performing it (the vocal part, I mean)...
Pink Floyd the lyrics are always deep and beautiful. Thank you for the flashback. ❤️ From 🇮🇹🇧🇪
My Pleasure! I agree!
Those lines came to my mind last summer while suffering a heart attack, although I recovered completely,at the time I felt completely at peace with the idea of dying and was thinking about this song and the meaning of it and accepting the stages of realizing your life maybe ending. I always loved this song and album but it even means more now 50 years after 1st hearing it.
Hello, Mr. David, thanks so much for taking the time to share. Hope all is well and that you will fully recover🙏🌺🙏
I knew you would love this. I have listened to this album a thousand times since 1973. It never gets old.
🥰
An unparallelled masterpiece, with most of the music composed by the late keyboard player Richard Wright. It has given rise to many covers.
🥰
I bought the album in 1973 and it still gives me goosebumps
🥰🥰🥰
Clare Torry was all of 4'10" and 21 years old when she was hired to improv this vocal. There's an interview here on UA-cam with her and she recalls the events of that day, definitely worth your time to watch.
Thanks so much for watching💕
No worries.
It will never get more beautiful then this...everytime I listen I feel such deep emotion..I'm drowning...❤
🥰🥰🥰
I loved the expression on your face when the vocals started. I have been listeng to this for 50 years and I still get goosebumps!
Wow, thank you! ♥️♥️♥️
I hear inClare Torey's performance each of the five stages of grief/death: denial, anger, depression, bargaining, and acceptance. Such a brilliant emotional interpretation.
Thanks for sharing
a tear appears every time i listen to this song
🥰
@@AaliyahCapili awwww
Loved your reaction I like watching newbees to Pink Floyd to see the reactions and accptance to Pink Floyd hears some history.
Great Gig In The Sky
Clair Torry
The album was released in March of 1973 but was started in 1971 and was worked on till the release date This album is considered one of Pink Floyd’s best works Roger Waters states it’s an expression of political, philosophical, humanitarian, and documentary that was desperate to get out. Pink Floyd went to Allen Parson for a female vocalist to perform the Great Gig in the Sky and he suggested Claire Torry (one of the best vocalists ever). Clair was guided by David Gilmore who told her the cut was a song written about life and the inevitable descent into death without using any words Clair was to convey this, This was when Clair decided to use her voice as an instrument and did a one take doing this and left the studio not knowing if Pink Floyd liked it or not thinking she had failed it wasn’t until the release of the album that she new her cut was used the problem was that Clair Torry was not credited as a co-writer and was not credited for any royalties which she sued for in 2004 and won. She received an undisclosed amount in the settlement. The album went to #1 on Bill Board and sold over 45 million copies it stayed on Bill Board's top 200 for 33 years
Thank you very much for taking the time to share🌺
Timeless album!
Timeless indeed😍
Glad to hear that you're giving PINK FLOYD a chance 🎉💖 They happen to be my favorite band of all time 💯 👍...by the way...there really is more songs you as a opera singer can react to. ✌️You won't be disappointed.
Thank you! I am glad to be reacting to them and I am looking forward to checking out more of their songs!
Her voice is truly an instrument.
🥰🥰🥰
Good reaction. Thank you.
Thank you too!🌺
Her vowel control is amazing.
🥰
This song still puts goosebumps on my goosebumps, and I've listened to it hundreds of times. Pink Floyd is peerless, and Clare Torry is beyond amazing. She deserves her own new adjective because presently there aren't any that are adequate.
😍😍😍
yes - great reaction
Thank you💕
Nice reaction, this song is a work of art !
Thanks so much
Great pink floyd song
Yas I agree!
Pink Floyds album Dark Side Of The Moon is in the Top 10 selling albums of all time. It was on Billboards Top 200 for almost 20 years. Check out the Pulse Live version of this song with three vocalists covering Claire's vocals.
Thanks for sharing
I always felt that this song without words is about Birth, Life and Death.
🥰
Makes me cry every time😢
🌺
There is no key change, it is a very unique chord progression that simply repeats. And the female voice does not say you are dying, it says "I never said I was afraid of dying" . That said, you really must listen to the whole album from start to finish. It is incredibly deep and meaningful, and is a complete work, not unlike a progressive rock "symphony" with various movements, not individual songs. And there is a reason it is one of THE highest selling albums of all time. Your musical education is not complete without listening to the whole thing. And as others have pointed out now that you've heard the studio version with Clare, watch this live performance where 3 talented ladies attempt to approximate Clare's feat, quite well in fact:
ua-cam.com/video/vWZ6hmHj2MA/v-deo.html (Pink Floyd - The Great Gig In The Sky (PULSE Restored & Re-Edited))
After you listen to the whole album there is a documentary by the band on the making of, and at time 8:45 Richard Wright describes his chord progression and Clare's incredible vocal performance and this commentary on the song ends at time 10:15 and they display the female's words on screen as described above.
Here is another Pink Floyd song with very visceral and deep meaning plus some scat along with the guitar by David Gilmour, and this live version is as good as or better than the studio version:
ua-cam.com/video/84Tq-eAJIk4/v-deo.html (Pink Floyd - Wish You Were Here (PULSE Restored & Re-Edited))
Thanks so much for sharing all of these🌺
Beautiful reaction. Clare Torry is a monster voice! The last note is the dead!
Thanks for sharing
I first heard it from the 1994 live concert. WOW that is a must see also.
Thanks for sharing
You are going to love this solo!!!!! Pink is super good!!!! This song is from one of the best albums EVER! I say that as a fact.
Super deep is what Pink Floyd is about! I am the first to admit, I am biased, this masterpiece came out the same year I graduated high school. Yes girl I'm old!!!! I think it is one of the BEST albums ever. Pink has sold 45 million copies worldwide. So I am not the only one to think that. Pink's music is a journey thru space and time. Did you LOVE it???
Thanks so much for sharing all of these🥰
Thank you, imagine getting the call "we've got an unknown band and they want you to sing without words". Then your song sells 1 billion times and stays in the 10 ten albums for a decade?
Amazing😍
Check out the LIVE version at the PULSE CONCERT. Clare Torrey is not part of the performance, but it is still an outstanding live performance.
Thanks for your suggestion
It was great, but it took 3 singers to do the same job. There is a Lady in "The Brit Pink Floyd Experience" that does it solo and it is almost as good. My co-worker was in tears when he heard her sing it 2 rows from the stage (not that distance made a difference)
Improvising is definitely the right word to describe the vocals on this great piece of music.
🥰
The song tells the story of death: first fear, anguish, fighting to not die, then giving in, acceptance, followed by peace, tranquility, and calm as she fades away into oblivion.
Thanks for sharing this
The entire album is a masterpiece.
But if you want to see the guys playing in the ancient Roman Amphitheatre of Pompeii with No Audience.

Thank you your suggestions!
Claire says "I never said I was frightened of dying," not "If you can hear this whispering."
Her whisper really intrigued me for a long time and finally found a reference. If you listen very closely, that's what she says.
It amazes me how many people get this wrong. It’s clear as day.
Thanks for sharing
@@vs5against1 No, it's really not. For the longest time I would have sworn she said "You'll never sell this record, Tommy."
If you haven't already, you should play the PULSE version. Live with three different singers. It's an awesome performance, and I love to see them actually singing
Thanks for sharing🌺
I always thought that the vocals represented the stages of dying, resistance, then acceptance.
Thanks for sharing
The Great Gig In The Sky is about the moment of death -including a little before and after-. It is one of the greatest musical creations ever and can only be compared to classical era compositions. But in terms of how the vocal element is used, it is difficult to find an exact equivalent of it as Missa, Lied or Chanson..
This masterpiece was created by Richard Wright. He recorded it as a chord progression for the electric organ in 1972, a year before The Dark Side Of The Moon (which is the album containing this original recording) , under the title of "The Mortality Sequence". Masterpieces are not always innate, sometimes they can also be created by dusting off a substrate and polishing it a bit..
Spoken Parts:
(At 0:39 -of original recording-) "And I am not frightened of dying. Any time will do, I don't mind. Why should I be frightened of dying? There's no reason for it - you've got to go sometime." - Gerry O'Driscoll, Abbey Road Studios janitorial "browncoat".
(At 3:33 -of original recording-, faintly) "I never said I was frightened of dying." - Patricia 'Puddie' Watts, wife of road manager Peter Watts.
The members of the band went around asking questions and recording responses from people working inside Abbey Road (the famous studio where the album was recorded) at the time. Among the questions, they were asked "Are you afraid of dying?". They used these two above in the recording from among the answers given.
So.. "If you can hear this whispering you are dying," is a very common misinterpretation. Maybe it would be better, but unfortunately it is not. "I never said I was frightened of dying," Puddie Watts simply says there :)
Omg enough horseshit already. greatest musical creation ever? Oy vey
Thank you for sharing all of these, much appreciated
Salamat, Aaliyah! I am so pleased you have started with some Pink Floyd! Just so you know, Clare Torey is not actually part of the band and the rest of their music, while just as amazing, do not sound like this special song does! The Dark Side of the Moon album was released in 1973 and stayed in the Top 100 Billboard chart of albums every week for more than the next fifteen years, I kid you not!!! To truly do this band justice you should next react to each song in order, on this LP, as they are meant to be heard that way, not one at a time separately. Later on we'll get you started on some Queen, but one great band at a time, I say!! Enjoy your vacation!!
Walang anuman! Thank you for suggestions
I think it's terrific that someone of your age and musical inclination is listening to and presenting some of the music from that generation (my generation). There's a lot of very good music from that time and you are certainly finding some of it. I enjoy your positivity and, what is apparently, your deep appreciation for music.
Oh, and by the way, thank you for letting me know what is said in that whisper. That one always eluded me.
Thanks so much for your kind appreciation. There are really so many beautiful music to listen and watch, grateful for the recommendations from everyone🥰
I get chills every time.
😍
Nice new hair style
Thank you so much
Great reaction! It is always instructive to hear a critique of rock vocal performances from a trained singer. In terms of the fatalistic lyrics about dying, if Wikipedia is to be believed, they were made by the Irish doorman at the Abbey Road Studios where the album was recorded, a Mr Gerry O'Driscoll. Apparently the band's bassist and chief lyricist, Roger Waters, recorded the band's crew and staff at the studios answering questions posed to them via flashcards, with their responses being mixed into the various songs on the album. (The actor Naomi Watts's father, Peter Watts, who was the band's road manager at the time, can be heard laughing maniacally on several of the tracks.) If you get the chance, listen to the whole album from beginning to end in one sitting, especially with headphones on. Like The Who's albums "Tommy" and "Quadraphenia", or Jethro Tull's albums "Thick as a Brick" and "A Passion Play", "Dark Side of the Moon" works best when listened to in its entirety. (Counterintuitive I know for a generation raised on iTunes and Spotify playlists.) I look forward to your next reaction video!
Oh wow thanks so much for sharing all of these informatiom, truly appreciare it
O.K. girl buckle your seat belt.. The ladies solo will knock your socks off!!! SUPER,SUPER DEEP! That my dear is Pink Floyd in a few words!! There is a video on UA-cam of this masterpiece. Instead of one singer, there are several. David his playing a lap-steel. Near the end he stops and gazes at the ladies singing.... Little lady --- Deep meanings equals Pink Floyd.. As you are learning.... The Dark Side of the Moon is one of my ALL time favorite albums or CD's. I had it in my cars CD player for weeks. I have replaced it for the time being with the Moody Blues.. Keep learning pretty lady...
Thank you very much for sharing🥰
I was blessed to have this masterpiece be my introduction to Pink Floyd. Give Meddle a listen. All the best to everyone.
🥰🥰🥰
Aaliyah,
This is my first journey on to your channel. You young lady have selected one of the best songs from a great rock and roll group. I maintain that the Dark Side of the Moon is one of the BEST albums EVER!!!! This was released the same year I graduated high school. SO I have a tad more time hearing this piece than most. I/we have an advantage with this masterpiece due to experience. Not to worry, you will get there! ENJOY!!!!! You are still quite young. Sometimes these things just take time..... I read that when Tori arrived at the studio they told her to just go for it. Nothing was written for a vocal part. AND we got this. Unreal, so moving!!!!!!!! A great solo!!! I am thrilled that you learned from this. Please continue to explore and work at your craft. Until the next time!
Thank you very very much for sharing all of these🥰
Clare Torry also contributed her vocal talents to Yellowstone Park, a song by the German band Tangerine Dream. Not entirely sure if her vocals are improvised there or not, but it sounds like it to me. In any case, she adds another layer of talent to the Tangerine Dream composition.
Thanks so much for sharing
HER VOICE GIVES ME CHILLS TOO
She is amazing💕
Her first run through she was doing ooh's and ah's and they said that's not what they wanted. So her approach was to try and sound like another instrument in the mix.
Yes, and they were satisfied with her second try, but brought her back for a bit more to polish up during mix process.
Thanks for sharing
If you start this album exactly as you start the movie The Wizard of Oz, this song will play during the infamous tornado scene. And ends exactly as Dorothy opens the door, and the color part of the movie begins.
oh wow that’s so cool! Thanks for sharing
Huh. I seem to recall "Money" kicking in in that scene.
She's going thru the stages of death. it's about a woman dying
Oh thanks for letting me know
Great reaction. Thank you!
Thank you too!
I cried my eyes out forty years ago. I’m still crying my eyes out now. What a beauty young lady too n😂😊
Thanks so much for sharing🥰
Another awesome reaction. So glad you enjoyed it! My next suggestion is to check Freddy Mercury from Queen. I'd suggest Bohemian Rhapsody, I'm confident you'll enjoy it! Keep up the amazing reaction videos!
Thank you so much for your kind comment and thank you for ur suggestion!
Well, she has done Bohemian Rhapsody covered by Angelina Jordan -- that's not a bad start :-)
I would also suggest Who Wants To Live Forever and The Show Must Go On from Queen as well.
The live version of the Pulse Tour is incredible, too, even though the song is sung by two or three different singers (for the different parts).
Oh thanks for sharing
And with the live one, you see and feel them, a must
😍
Great reaction, Aaliyah! I have been listening to this song for 50 years and it always brings tears to my eyes... such a haunting and magnificaent vocal performance over the top of Richard Wright's (RIP) excellent piano work. I had never seen the lyric for that last line. I always thought she said "I never said I was frightened of dying"
Thanks so much for sharing
I really like your reaction and how much you enjoyed it. I am just wondering if you realized this in one of greatest vocals ever recorded in music history. I encourage you to do even more research into this historic album. Did you know this stayed on the Billboard music charts for 820 weeks?!?! Think about how many years that is…and this song was a large part of that! There are more gems in that lp….
Oh wow thanks so much for sharing, so amazing😍
Yes. It was all improvised, with little guidance from the band, in less than 3 takes!
ClareTorry tells her story of the recording&aftermath here: ua-cam.com/video/mIW7xZSlZoM/v-deo.html
Thanks for the link!
They actually used the second take because the third wasn't better.
@@jamesanderson5268 it's a mix of all three takes
Dark Side of the Moon has to be listened to from start to finish on good headphones.
You'll find a train journey or whatever evaporates.
Thanks for the recommendation💕
This original is a masterpiece
🥰🥰🥰
@@AaliyahCapili 🤘🩷
You should absolutely listen to the whole album in one sitting, in the dark, with a glass of red.
Time and The Great Gig, describe conception, through to the final moments of death.
Heavy subject.
As you get older, the whole album starts to take on more meaning, and make more sense.
Stunning, scary, and totally relatable,
Especially "time".
Thanks for sharing Mr. Richard
Not exactly what you would expect from one of the late twentieth century's biggest rock bands. Imo, people today have pigeonholed rock into a simplistic stereotype and forgotten the complexity and deftness that's possible.
Thanks for sharing
Beautiful reaction! You have a very introspective and mature intuition musically for such a young person. This entire album is timeless and transformative. Every musician should be familiar with this album. Good luck and go far!
Oh thanks so much🌺
Thank you for this reaction. This band will take you on journeys and will change you with beautiful music. I have enjoyed this unbelievable music for over 50 years. I hope you enjoy the journey, and I am looking forward to more PF reactions.
Thanks for sharing Mr. Robert💕
Great reaction but im confused.. One time you're in the US, the other time in HK and now in PH.. Where does Aaliyah's heart belong? ( you HAVE to choose) Don't eat too much lechon and hug your lola. 😀
Do not become an opera singer, if you are not willing to travel.
Hahha yup I will hug my lola and not eat too much lechon!
The biggest treat was the wonderful surprise of hearing my favourite composer Handel. I immediately watched you sing a few parts first and then came back to this video after.
Thanks so much🥰
I am 55 and I still get chills listening to that
😍
Im 55 too. And chills since 14
I have listened to this many times since 1973. When alone it makes me think of a good friend I lost September 28, that year. I cry her remembrance, every time.
Oh sorry to hear about that, thanks for sharing🌺
