The correct question would be "Am I the only one that’s NOT inexplicably moved to tears by the great gig in the sky?", because that would be actually surprising.
Lyrics for Great Gig in The Sky: "And I'm not afraid of dying, anytime will do, I don't mind. Why should I be afraid, there's no reason for you've got to go sometime.

You might want to recheck your lyrics..... You have the word "Afraid" quoted twice and it is not in the song anywhere ever....... I am pretty sure they go like this.... "And I am not frightened of dying, anytime will do, I don't mind. Why should I be frightened of dying; I see no reason for it, you've got to go sometime" "I never said I was frightened of dying"
She GETS it! I've heard many versions of this, and the vocals always sound like someone trying to do an American Idol version. This has a range of emotion. It's primal. Wonderful.
Stuff like American Idol promotes the thought that if you can’t sing, you can’t be a musician and playing an instrument doesn’t matter. It also takes away from people singing those ‘primal’ videos and not using your diaphragm and instead using your head voice.
The sad thing is this woman would probably not make it past the audition stage for American idol. It is a music show were the judges have awful taste and no ability to recognize true talent.
If David Gilmour sees this he will sign her up for his next Great Gig In The Sky performance, I have never heard any female vocalist get so close to the original notes. Brilliant all round cover.
Holy sh*t the female vocalist is absolutely killing it on this!!! This is an insanely hard song to cover vocally. Many people can hit the notes, but not bring the grit and soul like on the studio recording. Whew loving this!!!
She is probably the best one I have ever seen to cover this nearly impossible song. She needs to be on stage either with Floyd or someone needs to write a song with her. I have hear hundreds of covers on this song. When I say that she did an Amazing doesn't. Words cant really do her justice.
Have to admit I really was sceptical about the vocals when clicking on this video. I know the mucisianship is always outstanding but holy crap Lilian just knocked it out of the park! Fanfuckingtastic guys. I am going to share this with everyone I can think of.
MeeCor Acres I must admit I felt the same way you did, but then that first vocal came out and I was shocked and thrilled to hear her do those famous vocals so flawlessly. Awesome musicians and an awesome singer. Props to you guys, probably the best version on UA-cam and I've listened to quite a number.
Yessir indeed It seems there is no improvisations (as many people who tried to cover this had many improvising parts), just true to the original recording. And that is what makes it even better than many covers of this song in UA-cam, it's one of the only ones that stay true to the originals.
This one is very good as well. Unlike most live performances, Amy Smith does the whole three segment herself. Pink Floyd and other PF cover bands tend to use 3 girls as the song is so demanding and difficult for one performer. The Brazilian girl in this clip NAILS IT, as does Amy Smith. ua-cam.com/video/ltt_YScyCVg/v-deo.html
Stunningly brilliant. I've been listening to this song for the 47 years that it has been in existence, and this is, by far, my favourite version of it. I'm sure Clare Torry is proud.
My Dad once told me that when he first heard this song he thought of an angel singing that part. I've always heard it to be true, now I can see it's true!
Eu estava assistindo a esta perfeição musical com lágrimas nos olhos pelo trabalho de cover tão bem feito em todos os detalhes, tanto instrumental, quanto vocal. Daí vi na descrição que quase todos são Brasileiros! Orgulho de vocês!! Orgulho de ser músico brasileiro! Grande abraço!
Que topppp. Sou fã incondicional do pink floyd. Essa cover superou minhas expectativas. Vocal simplesmente incrivel. Banda sem palavras. Com lágrimas nos olhos.
late to the party, but having experinced Floyd live, and their need for 3 women to sing their respective parts, I never thought I'd hear someone come close to Torry, but damn girl, you nailed it from start to finish, much, much respect.
Next to the national anthem, this is probably the most difficult song for a singer. Great job by her and the musicians. Really captured the essence of this great song.
Many people call it the National Anthem because "The Star Spangled Banner" sounds pretty condescending. Either way, you have to admit it's very difficult to sing.
This made me enthralled and speechless. Lilian - if Clare T is watching, I know she would be very flattered and proud. I have seen a few good covers of this song before, but nothing matches this. Hands down the best great gig cover I have ever seen. Where can I see more of Lilian's work?
Incredible!!!!!!! Just incredible!!!!!!! In all my years of listening to this song and the many covers there of I have never heard a good a job as this!!!!!! For a few moments I thought I was watching and listening to the actual studio recording of Pink Floyd and Clare Tory..... I have even heard Clare sing it live and she sucked compared to you!!!!!! What an angelic voice you have and what a beautiful girl you are!!!!!!! WOW incredible!!!!!!
Finally!!! The only cover, out of hundreds that I've heard and seen, that does this song justice. All other covers try to make this song their own when you can't. There are certain songs that you can't make your own and, "The Great Gig in the Sky," is one of them.
Que cover tan extraordinario , un verdadero homenaje al gran Rick Wright 👏👏👏👏👏🎼🎼🎼. What an extraordinary cover . A true tribute to the great Rick Wright 👏👏👏👏🎼🎼🎼.
People all over the world will be listening to this song till the end of time. I still get the chills up and down my spine even after 50 years of hearing it. Thank you. ❤
lol I think I watched like 30+ covers searching for the ultimate cover of this song. This is the first cover that I watched from this channel and they didn't disappoint me. I will never watch or look for another cover again because this is absolutely the closest and the only one that can be compared with Clare's studio version. Even the back-up singers of Pink Floyd from any DSotM concert since the '70s can't even beat this.
holy fucking shit! I've been sitting here going through covers of this and, while they've been good, THIS sounds like Clare herself. You fucking NAILED it girl! Someone hire this woman! Now!
Nothing beats the original performance by Claire Torry. Meanwhile I have heard a lot of interpretations and none of them was so good as this one. I am a fan!
OK, so now you really got me! My favorite song of all time, not just by Pink Floyd, but by anyone. Nuts.....goosebumps all over! How incredibly well done and a world class performance!!! Lilian knocked it right out of the park.....to climb right into that deep, emotional pit requires energy and stamina and boy, has she got it!!! BRAVO and a standing ovation to all of you!!! ~Jackie
...WELL, I have no words to explain how I feel with your performance. Excellent!!! Excellent!!! I look every month who can sing this song. You, You, You, but I don't know your name, what a pity! Thanks, My ears thank you forever! I saw now, sorry. Lilian Ximenes you are BEAUTIFUL!!!
Absolutely amazing performance by all, but in particular by the vocalist, Lilian Ximenes. There are many who have attempted to sing this song but fell far short of doing it justice. While IMO no one will ever equal Clare Torry's original recording, this is as close as I have heard anyone come to doing so. Bravo!
As a man who was amazed by Clare Torry's version back when it first came out, this...Right here... is THE best cover I've ever heard and I don't think it can be done better.
@@lawabidingcitizen5153 Truth is one sided. Just keep bringing up YOUR arguments and they will continue to be shut down. Might as well just not reply, probably the smartest thing to do on your part. My god, you arrogant people.....
I don't mean to nit pick but the piano wasn't perfect, There was nowhere near enough sustain used, and while her voice is great on the high parts, she lacks any depth at the lower end and is quite sharp.... some of her mid range parts are very nasal... Kudos though, better than most people could ever do :)
Rusticmonkey I think the critique is a little douchey...lol C'mon...this is UA-cam and she basically nailed it note for note. Anyone else I've heard try to cover this song does not come remotely close to nailing it note for note. Props!
Rusticmonkey "I don't mean to nitpick, but..." followed by a heap of pedantic nitpicking. Why, because this is only a 99.814% match to the actual album cut (which Pink Floyd themselves don't even reproduce in concert, btw)? Watch the video of Clare Torry singing it live... she sounds less like herself than this woman does! Who was it that said everything before the "but" is meaningless?
It's because there were like 3 versions of the song and Allan Parsons had to splice them and recompile all to make it best as a whole. I think she didn't care enough to follow the final outcome and remade the performance. Would still prefer listening to this than her live performance though.
And you're right. No singer in Dream Theater and even Pink Floyd/Roger Waters have done justice to the song in their live concerts. Whenever I watch their videos in its complete footage, it was so cringy that I had to skip it.
You guys should be proud of yourselves for two reasons. One, for being Pink Floyd fans, and Two, for delivering the best cover version of this song to date.
I’ve listen to to this song since I was a teen in the 70’s when I purchased Dark Side of the Moon album. This song I played over and over and it’s not like you could press a button and replay you’d lift the arm of the turntable which caused scratches. With my mom yelling to turn it down. 🙆🏻♀️😊 but anyway This is the first cover that gets closest to the original. Loved it 🖤💥💥💥 all the notes at the right time make the difference
I can confidently say that, in my opinion, this is the best vocal cover i have seen in my entire life. The power in her voice, the intrumentals, everything is made to perfection.
This is the part where I walk up to the tip jar and put 500 dollars in, you know to get things going. By far the best version I have heard vocally since Care Torry's superb performance. Even the sound effects were on point. Excellent job.
OH MY GOODNESS. these people are truly amazing.no one comes close to these amazing performers. artists.t he whole band floored me with there perfect musicianship, but that keyboard player truly caught the spirit of the original.no other keyboard player that I've heard comes close to him bravo sir!!!. But that Special, vocally superior, tremendously inspired ,woman has far surpassed any other person s rendition Of the incomparable Clare Torry. the others tried but she totally, almost perfectly, duplicated the sound and spirit of Miss Torry. pink Floyd should Definitely hire her.but i hope she still remains with these guys .please don't break up perfection. Thank you all so much for your hard work ,
I was fortunate to see the best Floyd tribute band on the planet… BRIT FLOYD just the other night with some good friends at the SHOW Theater in Rancho Mirage California and to those out there who want to see and hear the best representation of their work I highly recommend seeing this band…. I am 56 and have seen dozens of tribute bands over the decades and the show i saw the other night was possibly one of the best concerts I have ever seen, they were that good and this song they played with the solo vocal my their vocalist was absolutely brilliant…. If You love Pink Floyd in any fashion, in your lifetime you must see them without a doubt…. They were that good!! Cheers to all the PF fans and for keeping their timeless music alive since 1965… Man we are all getting old… lol🎸
so beautiful. The bass and piano excellent, the singers vibration and focus is so present and powerful. I appreciate this version of the recording. If a future experience ever were to occur in which the singer was present to record this again, I would be so estatic to hear her take a risk to sing outside her safe vocal range to reach the high notes and would be so delighted to hear that recording. I don't care if she actually can reach them, but to hear her attempt them would delight my spirit.
Hi *****, thank you for watching and commenting the video! You are right: we are from Brazil (Vocal, Bass/Lapsteel/Piano, Drums) and England (Hammond Organ).
Took almost 50 years but we found someone who can come close to what Clare Torey did that very early morning.
You are correct sir!
Viviane Donner come close too

In verità è perfettamente identica all'originale! Gli strumentisti sono straordinari e la vocalist è fantastica... sembra proprio Claire Torry! 👍👍
Exactly. The best cover I had ever seen before this is/was by Viviane Donner, of Argentinian(?) Pink Floyd cover band 'Atom'.

those are not words, but feelings
greatest youtube comment right there
She GETS it! I've heard many versions of this, and the vocals always sound like someone trying to do an American Idol version. This has a range of emotion. It's primal. Wonderful.
It's so hard to capture the music
Excellent word - primal. Says it all.
American Idol promotes awfulness.

Next to the national anthem, this is probably the most difficult song for a singer. Great job by her and the musicians. Really captured the essence of this great song.
***** I can assume U.S. anthem because it's definitely hard to do right. I'm sure there are plenty of other difficult ones out there too. :)
laserfloyd Maybe he meant the Radiohead song.
If someone refers to their national anthem as "the National anthem" they are 'muricans. Hard to find a more narrow-minded people
Many people call it the National Anthem because "The Star Spangled Banner" sounds pretty condescending. Either way, you have to admit it's very difficult to sing.

People all over the world will be listening to this song till the end of time. I still get the chills up and down my spine even after 50 years of hearing it. Thank you. ❤
lol I think I watched like 30+ covers searching for the ultimate cover of this song. This is the first cover that I watched from this channel and they didn't disappoint me. I will never watch or look for another cover again because this is absolutely the closest and the only one that can be compared with Clare's studio version. Even the back-up singers of Pink Floyd from any DSotM concert since the '70s can't even beat this.
Oh my god!!! Thanks to all people envolved in this cover
🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Lilian, the new Clare 💕💕✨✨🙏🙏
This song is a masterpiece , and this woman played brilliantly
Her name is Lilian Ximenes, and I want to have her baby.
🙏🏻❤️🥰
@@burtpanzer ❤️
@@LilianXimenes I hadn't thought you would ever see that, but thank you...
@@LilianXimenes very talented
holy fucking shit! I've been sitting here going through covers of this and, while they've been good, THIS sounds like Clare herself. You fucking NAILED it girl! Someone hire this woman! Now!
seriously amazing Nova!
🙏🏻😘❤️
they are all amazing, but she truly steals the show.
If there were a word more perfect to describe this than perfect I would use it, but I guess the best I can say is PERFECT!
Freaking nailed it - every part, and unbelievable vocals - best I've heard, equals Clare.
Nothing beats the original performance by Claire Torry. Meanwhile I have heard a lot of interpretations and none of them was so good as this one. I am a fan!
OK, so now you really got me! My favorite song of all time, not just by Pink Floyd, but by anyone. Nuts.....goosebumps all over! How incredibly well done and a world class performance!!! Lilian knocked it right out of the park.....to climb right into that deep, emotional pit requires energy and stamina and boy, has she got it!!! BRAVO and a standing ovation to all of you!!! ~Jackie
🙏🏻😘❤️
Love the red-head, her voice is amazing!!!
+David B She has a fantastic voice.
@Appoddigare lilian ximenes
...WELL, I have no words to explain how I feel with your performance. Excellent!!! Excellent!!! I look every month who can sing this song. You, You, You, but I don't know your name, what a pity! Thanks, My ears thank you forever! I saw now, sorry. Lilian Ximenes you are BEAUTIFUL!!!
❤️🙏🏻😘
Absolutely amazing performance by all, but in particular by the vocalist, Lilian Ximenes. There are many who have attempted to sing this song but fell far short of doing it justice. While IMO no one will ever equal Clare Torry's original recording, this is as close as I have heard anyone come to doing so.
Bravo!
🙏🏻😘❤️
I never thought a cover could be done this well to great gig. but you all proved me wrong. every aspect of it was phenomenal.
Breath taking... brought tears to my eyes...
Ive been looking everywhere for a woman who can carry these vocals!!
Lilian has a fantastic voice.
best ever cover of anything
As a man who was amazed by Clare Torry's version back when it first came out, this...Right here... is THE best cover I've ever heard and I don't think it can be done better.
just watched again. not sure anyone can ever beat that cover...
Good Lord, what a performance. That made the hair stand up on the back of my neck. Well done everyone, especially the lady singing.
🙏🏻😘❤️
Still, in my opinion, the best cover of this song.
0:17 I always wonder how to make that psychedelic sound.
It's a steel guitar dummy, put the pipe down.
@@DIGITLRIZZ Not everyone knows that, no need to sound like a dick about it
@@lawabidingcitizen5153 Deal with it softy, If you don't have thick skin you wont survive in this world.
@@DIGITLRIZZ You've run out of arguments, haven't you?
@@lawabidingcitizen5153 Truth is one sided. Just keep bringing up YOUR arguments and they will continue to be shut down. Might as well just not reply, probably the smartest thing to do on your part. My god, you arrogant people.....
I come to comment on this video, and omg HER VOICE ITS BEAUTIFUL LIKE THIS SONG!!! its the best song
piano, bass drums PERFECT
I don't mean to nit pick but the piano wasn't perfect, There was nowhere near enough sustain used, and while her voice is great on the high parts, she lacks any depth at the lower end and is quite sharp.... some of her mid range parts are very nasal... Kudos though, better than most people could ever do :)
Rusticmonkey I think the critique is a little douchey...lol C'mon...this is UA-cam and she basically nailed it note for note. Anyone else I've heard try to cover this song does not come remotely close to nailing it note for note. Props!
Rusticmonkey
"I don't mean to nitpick, but..." followed by a heap of pedantic nitpicking. Why, because this is only a 99.814% match to the actual album cut (which Pink Floyd themselves don't even reproduce in concert, btw)? Watch the video of Clare Torry singing it live... she sounds less like herself than this woman does! Who was it that said everything before the "but" is meaningless?
It's because there were like 3 versions of the song and Allan Parsons had to splice them and recompile all to make it best as a whole. I think she didn't care enough to follow the final outcome and remade the performance. Would still prefer listening to this than her live performance though.
And you're right. No singer in Dream Theater and even Pink Floyd/Roger Waters have done justice to the song in their live concerts. Whenever I watch their videos in its complete footage, it was so cringy that I had to skip it.
You guys should be proud of yourselves for two reasons. One, for being Pink Floyd fans, and Two, for delivering the best cover version of this song to date.
Oh my God, she's amazing... Congratulations, guys! I never heard a cover like this before..
Lilian, já ouvi vários covers cantando esta musica ,mas você me impressionou, que show.
🙏🏻😘❤️
I’ve listen to to this song since I was a teen in the 70’s when I purchased Dark Side of the Moon album. This song I played over and over and it’s not like you could press a button and replay you’d lift the arm of the turntable which caused scratches. With my mom yelling to turn it down. 🙆🏻♀️😊 but anyway
This is the first cover that gets closest to the original. Loved it 🖤💥💥💥 all the notes at the right time make the difference
Generally the right notes at the right time is pretty important
simplemente perfecto
She really nails it, I love That they also added in the “if you hear this whispering” from the original
I always thought it was "I heard somebody whispering that time"....
It’s a girl saying I never said I was frightened of dying
Why only 170.000? Maybe every week ım watching this amazing performance and this video is really deserves a billion views
Chills, chills, chills
I can confidently say that, in my opinion, this is the best vocal cover i have seen in my entire life. The power in her voice, the intrumentals, everything is made to perfection.
Perfect, just perfect. Such a great tribute to Richard Wright & Clare Torry. This has never been done so well since 1973. Wonderful, thanks
Fechem os olhos e ouçam a interpretação de Lílian Ximenes. Impressionante!
Obrigada 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
As amazing this sounds, just imagine witnessing Clare Torry in the studio recording this song. Goosebumps!
This is the part where I walk up to the tip jar and put 500 dollars in, you know to get things going. By far the best version I have heard vocally since Care Torry's superb performance. Even the sound effects were on point. Excellent job.
Best cover of "The Great Gig in the Sky" I have ever heard.....BRAVO.
She started hollerin' when my meds kicked in with a bang ,thank you for helping me attain cosmic euphoric greatness!😮
OH MY GOODNESS. these people are truly amazing.no one comes close to these amazing performers. artists.t he whole band floored me with there perfect musicianship, but that keyboard player truly caught the spirit of the original.no other keyboard player that I've heard comes close to him bravo sir!!!. But that Special, vocally superior, tremendously inspired ,woman has far surpassed any other person s rendition Of the incomparable Clare Torry. the others tried but she totally, almost perfectly, duplicated the sound and spirit of Miss Torry. pink Floyd should Definitely hire her.but i hope she still remains with these guys .please don't break up perfection. Thank you all so much for your hard work ,
🙏🏻😘❤️
what the hell!!!! oh girld you have one of the greatest voices in this world..just amazing...and you have a great band too
I was fortunate to see the best Floyd tribute band on the planet… BRIT FLOYD just the other night with some good friends at the SHOW Theater in Rancho Mirage California and to those out there who want to see and hear the best representation of their work I highly recommend seeing this band…. I am 56 and have seen dozens of tribute bands over the decades and the show i saw the other night was possibly one of the best concerts I have ever seen, they were that good and this song they played with the solo vocal my their vocalist was absolutely brilliant…. If You love Pink Floyd in any fashion, in your lifetime you must see them without a doubt…. They were that good!! Cheers to all the PF fans and for keeping their timeless music alive since 1965… Man we are all getting old… lol🎸
This is your best DSOTM cover. The slide sounds amazing, the voice, the hammond (love the part at 1:58), all great
Same
I'm a hammond organist myself and it's pretty much one of my favorite pieces to play
so beautiful. The bass and piano excellent, the singers vibration and focus is so present and powerful. I appreciate this version of the recording. If a future experience ever were to occur in which the singer was present to record this again, I would be so estatic to hear her take a risk to sing outside her safe vocal range to reach the high notes and would be so delighted to hear that recording. I don't care if she actually can reach them, but to hear her attempt them would delight my spirit.
This is the Best cover of This great song.
I'm sure!
That's the best cover version I have ever heard. Thank you guys... and special thanks to Lilian's beautiful vocals. Shivers!
Thank you shinycrazydiamond
Six years passed, still SHIVERS! And once again, I cannot but say Congratulations you Brilliant Players
Absolutely perfect!
Indeed ***** , Apparently some people from Brazil, they're amazing :)
***** Thank you for watching Bogada, In the description you can find de country and youtube address of the players (3 from Brazil and 1 from England)
Hi *****, thank you for watching and commenting the video! You are right: we are from Brazil (Vocal, Bass/Lapsteel/Piano, Drums) and England (Hammond Organ).
Wow! Chills from this. By far the best PF cover I've heard.
