A whole different level of darkness for Floyd...I imagine some of The Wall to be like this?... Thanks for watching! 🥰
Yes, much of The Wall is similar, but with Pink Floyd everything is tied together neatly into a fabric of time and space where some lyrics or notes on the guitar or keyboard are shared between some songs within an album and even from album to album. Just because they gently pick you up at the beginning of an album and gently bring you down back where they left you doesn't mean they are finished.
The Wall has darkness and drama, but the darkest... not only in PF's discography, but... of all that I know of any band, is "The Final Cut" album.
Nice, thanks!
Oh wow OK...I did hear that Roger screams in it!
@@bigjapi1never listened to that album. It’s reputation keeps me away. Is it worth looking into? From what I’ve heard it’s really Waters album and everybody was pissed off and the band was disintegrating
Both Division Bell and A Momentarily Lapse of Reason are superb albums imho…
You know I think they will end up being 2 of my faves. Every song I've heard from both is superb! Thanks for watching
I've always found it curious that the album "A Momentary Lapse of Reason" (1987) is so decried by PINK FLOYD fans and, in general, ranked so low in the various professional critics' charts (obviously, this first PF album signed David Gilmour, and without Roger Waters who did not hesitate to diminish its quality publicly and with an arrogance tinged with pettiness, frustrated more than one idolater of the founding pope). For my part, I consider it among the seven best albums produced by the group and it is moreover one of those that I re-listen to regularly with the most pleasure. Thanks.
[NB: Wow! What a background illustration!]
Oh god I’d forgotten about this gem. 🙆♀️but it’s all coming back to me .. again. ❤
I love Pink Fridays 💓
Me too! Guaranteed great tunes! Have a wonderful night my friend....
Yes!!!! Friday Floyd night!! Bow Wow! Ruff Ruff!!!
Maybe I'll start a "Retro Reactions After Dark" weekend series LOL! These definitely be some deeply dark dogs......
@@retroreactions.... 🤣🤣
Another fantastic Floyd tune! I got to see this song live twice…. just amazing live as was the entire show! Curious to see what you’ll surprise us with tomorrow? A couple of bands I’ve been listening to lately that you need to revisit is Supertramp (Brother Where You Bound) and Porcupine Tree (Stranger By The Minute). These are both incredible songs.
Nice, must be insane live! Let's just say you've recommended tomorrow's song in the past so I know you're on board! I'm excited for it...Let's see...Supertramp a bit far down the list, but PT might make it in for next week! As you know, the more amazing artists I add, the bigger the gaps get in between turns... 🙁
You’ve barely scratched the surface as far as finding more amazing artists! Just think that after you’ve gone through all of Pink Floyd’s 70’s-90’s albums, as well as going through Genesis, you’ll have Friday and Sunday open for more. Maybe start a Porcupine Tree Tuesday or Wednesday is women singers?? Lol
Yes, I def have channel security as far as content! Yes, I wonder when I'll finish with those 2 artists. Floyd will definitely end first, I still have tons of Genesis! You're really pushin for weekly PT 😀 Wednesday Women, HA has a nice ring to it!
I always loved this song, brooding with menace. David has the perfect vocal delivery for this. Tony Levin does it again!
Sweet! Clearly I loved both songs today....tomorrow's will be insane I bet!
I think the only Floyd song that comes close to the darkness and despair of "Dogs of War", is "Goodbye Blue Sky" from "The Wall".
Tremendous tune from the Great Pink Floyd with a dark tone 💫❤️☝️ thanks for the reaction bro 💫☝️
Dogs of War" "Us and Them" "In Any Tongue"!!!! Three great anti-war songs from these guys!! And of course David Gilmour is involved in all three! That is whether it's just the singing, the guitar or the writing or all three!
Those three songs Just show that war is ignorant and stupid for any reason!!!!
You want a dark song by Pink Floyd? Try “The Gunner’s Dream” or When the Tigers Broke Free.”
Ok, so now that we can discuss this one freely, I can disclose that this song has always struggled to break out of the bottom 4th of my full discography ranking ...BUT, but...even admitting that, I have to give it props for two reasons. 1. It checks off another box in the Floyd Genre-Busting Bingo game. As you stated, here is yet another facet of their sound that defies easy categorization and sounds like nothing else they ever did before or since, and that diversity is one of my fav things about the band. And 2. It contains perhaps my single favorite transitional tempo shift as the guitar solo gives way to the sax solo. I may not listen to it for the kind of spiritual uplift and anxiety balm I rely on Floyd to provide, but like The Nile Song and One of These Days before it, it's a perfect song for driving fast with the top down. Also, "One World", twisted though it be by the dark subject matter, is the defacto thesis of the entire aMLoR album, as it's stated again in Sorrow and is the whole point of On the Turning Away.
Hello. Was definitely wondering what your thoughts on this one were. Yes, this one gets its own lane. That's how I felt and you've confirmed it, knowing their full catalog. This album grew on me fast and will clearly be one of my faves when all is said and done...Great to hear from you as always!
@@retroreactions.... I've heard that more than a few times, and it always tickles me to no end when someone gives Momentary Lapse some much overdue love, even if - maybe especially BECAUSE - it's not the album I immediately reach for. You talk PF long enough and you will hear literally e-v-e-r-y album is someone's favorite, even the dreaded *buh-buh-BUM!* Ummagumma. Gawd I can't wait until you -suffer- I MEAN experience that one. Heh. Good weekend to you m'friend, chat w'ya again soon!
😂🤣✌
This song, there was a poll one time, maybe Rollingstone? Can’t remember. But this song was somehow voted as the “worst” Pink Floyd song on that weird poll. Time has served this song well, I agree that it’s amazing and it says a lot about so called “critics”. And if this actually is the worst Pink Floyd song (I don’t agree), then what does that say about their body of work??
Hello. What a weird choice for their worst, unless the options were limited on that poll. Very true what you said. Pink Floyd's worst song is better than countless artists' best songs, in my opinion! Thanks so much for watching Mike!
Fantastic song Brandon! I love it!
OMG, F1 pole position 4 me LOL
Woohoo, glad you do, definitely blew my mind a bit 🙂
Yes sir! 🥇 Good night!!
It's been a while since I heard this. A great song from a very good album. I saw the tour for this in '88 at Wembly .... god I'm old!
the live version from "the delicate sound of thunder" concert is killer,and has some great visuals at the beginning.
PF does it again! Absolutely Awesome!
As you being a youngin back in Reagan era there was the Iran-Contra arms deal with Oliver North. Watching the hearing in front of the people on TV , then this song with the lyrics hit the nail on the head.
Ah yes, remember that well!
The original studio versions of the tracks on this album are perfect as they are without the remastered versions which I believe slightly take away some of the original power of this masterpiece of an album!
Hello! Was this one the original?
Yes, this is the original album version @@retroreactions....
I just watched the remastered video of On The Turning Away. I’m glad it exists, because there are elements of the vocals in particular which sound different, rawer than the studio version and the Delicate Sound of Thunder. It’s the same recording so it’s interesting hearing how the same song can sound so different with a few turns of the knobs in production. That said, I agree. I’ve never gotten the criticism that the album has too much 80s sheen to it and they didn’t need to “clean it up” at all. But still it’s neat to have different versions to listen to.
Oh good! Thanks
This is already the late phase of the band, which indicates a bit the end of creativity. "Animals" was boring and with all the songs (like here with "Dogs Of War") after that the flow of the songs is pretty predictable und unsurprising. The basic rhythm always reminds me of "Black Velvet" by Alannah Myles. That came out two years after "Dogs Of War" though.
I'd like to see you reacting at "Cirrus minor" from Pink Floyd
Yeah, usually you expect this kind of anger from Roger Waters. I think it’s the angriest song that Gilmour himself sings.
Sure seems like it! Loved it of course..
@@retroreactions.... yeah…pretty powerful. Kind of Pink Floyd’s answer to War Pigs by Sabbath.
Pigs n dogs seem to be a recurring theme in rock!
The Pompeii live version is amazing Brandon do try it one day ❤
This and On The Turning Away are my least favorite songs on that album.
Pink Floyd's darkest song?!(about 4:20) Oh, wait until you hear the Animals album...
Hello Michael, Brandon reacted to it already 😉
We did Animals already. It's my favorite Floyd album.
Yea, for some reason this seemed darker than Animals songs. Maybe I need to revisit that album....Thanks
I think The Wall is there darkest album
I think you might be right. The Wall is really DARK.
This song really grew on me over time. That transition and that darkness comes at you like a wall of darkness.
Great song. Great reaction, thanks
Thank you as well!
I suoni dei cani sono sintetizzati come in DOGS . Invece in SEAMUS il suono del cane è reale ..come nel video MADEMOISELLE NOBS dal Live at Pompeii.
Questo è quello che stavo pensando. Grazie per la conferma. Piacere di vederti come sempre!
@@retroreactions.... 😘
They WILL TAKE and YOU WILL GIVE
Your occupied doing other things than listening to the music. I am sorry to say.
He’s quickly scribbling down things he wants to remember to talk about. 🤔
Thanks!
Hello. Yes, I am 100% taking in all the music. I do take notes throughout the song so that I don't forget anything I want to say, but I've been practicing writing without looking down so it's not so obvious. Not the easiest feat! Thanks.
Friday night Floyd 🙌🏼🔥👋🏼
What better way to spend a Friday night! And I'm available worldwide!! 🤣🤣
💙
@@retroreactions.... Wowsa, worldwide 🤣👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼🩵
@@retroreactions.... Please add to your (ever growing list) “Black Friday” live by Steely Dan 🔥🔥🔥
Done!
I kind of like the live version of this song better. For me the studio one sounds a bit messy and more like a live version, if that makes any sense lol.
Interesting....I'm guessing they played it only on the '88 Tour?
@@retroreactions.... When I said it sounds like a live version, I meant it sounded like most other bands live versions of their music. My brain doesn't work in this heat. The actual live version is more cleaned up, and not as dirty. The album was released in '88, the tour started the next year. Hope u check it out.
Great tour, I've reacted to a few songs from it. Will keep this one in mind!
I was 16 or 17 at the time. Bought the CD and the LIVE VHS tape. Played both for my Mom. She loved the band and bought me a Fender. I played Mother for my Mother on it. We analyzed every word together.
That's crazy GREAT!! :D
Hi there. Wow, what an incredibly cool way to bond with her. Thanks for sharing the great memories (and for watching!)
Thank you all who can appreciate that. It sure meant a lot to both of us. Funny thing she said was these guys don't even look like a rock and roll band, noting that David Gilmour looked like the last plumber that came over to fix the sink, but her eyes were glued on The Delicate Sound of Thunder performance. Even worse, she had a thing for Slash. RIP Mom 1938-2009 I love you!
Plumber LOL...very normal looking man, especially when he cut his hair short....She's your angel since 2009 clearly 🙂 ✌
@@retroreactions.... I smell her perfume here once in a while and I pick up my guitar and play her a tune. I have other angels as well. Maybe I can explain all that some day to more than the 5 people that know. On another note, I have been enjoying your channel for a month or two, kinda on and off. No particular reason other than I spend most my non-wotking waking hours watching and promoting Ren. I think my Mom would have liked Ren. Heck with Slash, Ren is a cute little puppy! Anyway, the power of meditation and prayer illuminates my path, so if you need some energy just ask. Don't ask me though. Go directly to God.
