I am 67 years (male too) and same here with most of the songs of this amazing and unrepeatable band. I am grateful to life for many things but, especially, for having been able to grow up, mature and grow old with their music.
I just love the way you just get Pink Floyd, I also cry to them, they are my go to band Stacy, you just can't get better than them, perfection to say the least, sending love to you from Plymouth England 🏴
David Gilmour never wastes a note. Absolute genius and I've never heard anyone make the guitar cry the way Dave Gilmour does. That solo at the end is one of the sweetest ever. Also, I'll never get over how brilliant this song is. It's perfect and beautiful beyond words. Perfectly composed, arranged and orquestrated. A true masterpiece.
@@StaceyRPGReactsI appreciate you replying and noticing about that because it's true when it comes to David Gimour. He's like a maestro and his music will always be timeless for generations to come to enjoy!
It's not just that, every note he plays HAS to be there. With nearly all guitar solos there's some point where you think "Now you're just showing off". Not so with Gilmour. Changing anything in his solos would be like touching up the Mona Lisa with a marker. I have yet to hear a Pink Floyd cover that's an actual improvement over the original and I doubt I ever will.
@@JC130676 absolutely correct. It's totally intentional. You won't catch him shredding for no reason. He's like the polar opposite of someone like Malmsteen.
In music you have major and minor notes/chords. Typically, major notes, are used to emote happy feelings while the opposite is true for the minor scale. I hope this helps.
PF is not something you listen to... it's something you feel. DG reaches into your soul and pulls on the strings of your heart. I'm in my 50's and still cry every time, I still feel it! This is what music is supposed to do... perfection
The album "The Division Bell", is largely about (non-) communication and especially about the mentality where simple words can often solve many problems in life. The Division Bell is the name of a bell that rings at the Palace of Westminster, Houses of Parliament (London, UK). The bell indicates to parliamentarians that the debates will resume, or that these debates are coming to an end, that it's time to move on to the final vote. To put this song in context, you could try: Pink Floyd - Keep Talking (PULSE Restored & Re-Edited). Here's a sample of what you might hear in Keep Talking: "Why won't you talk to me? - You never talk to me - What are you thinking?"
The difference between most of the "guitar-greats" and David Gilmour is his incredible ability to make his guitar cry. I've never heard a guitar player get as much emotion out of his instrument like he can. For a truly mindblowing Floyd experience, you should watch Echoes live from Gdansk. It's a life changing song... Thank you for your wonderful reaction! It was a joy to watch.
Sono completamente d accordo con te , David ti entra direttamente nel cuore come nessun altro. Ho avuto la fortuna di vederlo nel 1987 e nel 1994 con i PINK Floyd .....PAZZESCO. Poi l ho visto nel 2006 assieme al suo Fraterno Amico RICHARD WRYGHT ed infine a POMPEI NEL 2016 mi sembra .... Rimani senza parole , solo lacrime .....un ANGELO CADUTO PER NOI ❤❤❤❤❤
I appreciate and enjoy your reactions to Pink Floyd. They are absolutely one of the greatest bands ever. This reaction, in particular, hit me in the feels, watching you soak it all in. Because you also enjoy Nightwish, I strongly recommend that you listen to their tribute to "High Hopes" from the End of an Era concert. Their version is definitely their own, but the respect and admiration for the original certainly shines through.
You're spot on, High Hopes is about nostalgia, regrets, yearning for better times. FWIW, I've heard it probably hundreds of times, been a fan for 50 years, and this song still makes me cry, so I'd say you got it exactly right. Great reaction!
The instrument David Gilmour is playing is a version of a lap steel guitar made by Fender. Nobody plays it like him. So beautiful. He plays it in several Pink Floyd songs 💗
I always liked to believe that he tried playing it on the guitar but the finger acrobatics was too much to achieve what he wanted out of it. Because it would definitely be some wild bending of the strings to get anywhere close.
When he says "forever and ever" I let out a "Oh God" at the exact same time you did. It just proved that that part gets into people's soul. This is poetry! 💫
The bell in the background is “The Divison Bell” which is used in England to call lawmakers to come and vote. High Hopes was a last minute addition to the album. Supposedly David was inspired by something his wife said and he constructed the song and recorded a demo by himself in one night and the rest of the band came in and recorded the full song which was added to the album.
Their music is timeless. I am proud to say that my 24 YO daughter also loves them. She hated them when she was younger but a more mature mind is all that is needed to appreciate this mastery. I know you are also a huge Nightwish fan you need to react to their performance of this song live. It is a a gem.
Yes, with the incredible Marko singing what is definitely more of a tribute than a cover of this classic Pink Floyd tune. Nightwish bring something very different out of it while staying true to it's message.
Hi, I'm writing to you from Sicily, in southern Italy. I had the fortune, honor and joy of attending the Pink Floyd concert in Rome on 19 September 1994. I was only 17 years old and it was an unforgettable experience. It was incredibly emotional, and even today I am moved listening to them, just as I was moved that day at the concert. Groups like them should be eternal; they would never have to grow old to continue writing songs, or rather, poems. The Pink Floyd videos you are watching are taken from the "Pulse" tour, the one I participated in. However, I highly recommend you watch the entire movie "The Wall" by Pink Floyd.
Crying when listening to Pink Floyd is totally normal! I'm 57 and I still can't hold back my tears when I hear their music, so don't worry. I saw the Pulse tour live and we all cried!!! I even saw a few people pee their pants.
The sounds at the begining are the sounds of the English countryside which transports me back to when I was a kid. Quite fitting for the song. A couple of decades back I was suffering from a form of depression, I hadn't felt anything for what felt like months and thought I was dead inside. One summers day driving home from work this song came on the CD player and when I got to the slide guitar solo at the end I felt for the first time in what felt like a long time and all my emotions came out all at once. I had to pull over because I was crying so much and couldn't drive. Once I composed myself the rest of the drive home I felt lighter and clearer than I had in weeks and the depression never came back (it's flittered round the edges on occasions but never settled since.) It was the most amazing catharsis I've ever felt. This song still takes me back to a childhood in the country with church bells ringing out from villages on a Sunday, endless summers, bees and simpler times. Music is amazing!
Thank you so much for sharing this story! It’s amazing how music can take us back to these significant moments that we will remember for the rest of our lives. Loved your story!❤️
Wonderful recitation as always! You recognize the key things in Pink Floyd's music very well. I think you should listen to both "I wish you were here" and "Shine on you crazy diamond" as soon as possible. Those two compositions are in a way anthems of many generations ... also pay attention to David Gilmour's solo work after Pink Floyd. you will hear more absolutely phenomenal music. Some say that actually David Gilmour is some kind of god walking the earth. And I mostly agree with that.😇 By all means keep it up. Your reactions are really wonderful.
Gilmour has one of the greatest voices in rock and his guitar-playing is deeply emotive, so don't apologize for crying. We all do and some of us have been listening to Pink Floyd for 50 years or more. They were far ahead of their time and never get old.
I was crying too, and I’ve heard this song/watched this performance a hundred times. It’s an emotional release; we’re with you. And your interpretation of the lyrics and feeling were spot-on.
'The Dawn mist glowing' 'the Water flowing' t'he endless river, forever and ever' And Tears. This is floyd's best song for me by an absolute mile, hauntingly beautiful, incredible lyrics, beautifully arranged, the piano and bell throughout, and that amazing slide guitar solo to top it off. It' never fails to make me cry, just the most beautiful song.
Listening to High Hopes for the first time in the summer of 1994 when the solo started, it captivated my soul that I stood frozen thinking how someone could play such an instrument that stops in your tracks and takes to another realm where's there is no pain or suffering.
Just found your channel. PF being my favorite band I was curious to see your reaction because I know this is their most moving song to me, after "Sorrow". I was right there with you with tears and it was only like my 200th time hearing it. Thank you for doing such a respectful reaction / review. They also move me more than any other band.
Whenever my time comes, i want them to play THIS song full blast at my funeral. I bet nobody will keep it dry when David starts his solo! It's so beautifull! Also i'm jealous of people that where there at the pulse concert in 1994. I was 4 years old in '94 so i was too young to go. My parents did see them multiple times, so i grew up listening to the records. But i've never had the chance to watch them play live. One band that still plays progressive music is Porcupine Tree. They started out when bands like Pink Floyd, Genesis, Marillion etc "stopped" making new records. But they are imo just as good, and have an amazing drummer! I did see them live in their Closure/Continuation tour in the Ziggo Dome Amsterdam. (They released it as a live album/blu ray) It's hands down the best concert i've been to. You should really check them out. Especially their live performances!
I can tell you, I'm listening to Pink Floyd over thirty years now and even now I have still tears in my eyes. The way David Gilmour let's his guitar sing, he transports emotions right into my heart. So everyone who knows this effect of Pink Floyd's music will understand your reaction. I love it to see how the music touches your heart. And there are still a lot of songs to discover. Feel free for asking for more possible songs. For example I would like to see your reaction to the version of "The great gig in the sky" from the Pulse Concert.
'High Hopes' is a composition rich in poetic images and symbolism. Released on the album 'The Division Bell' in 1994, the song is often interpreted as a reflection on the past, the loss of innocence and the progressive passage of time. The lyrics, written by guitarist David Gilmour and his wife, Polly Samson, evoke a sense of longing for an idyllic time and place, possibly the band members' youth and the early days of their musical career. The expression 'world of magnets and miracles' can be seen as a metaphor for the fascination and enchantment of childhood, where everything seems possible and the world is full of wonders. The song also mentions 'the long road' and 'the boardwalk', indicating a journey that the band members have traveled together, and questions whether there is still a common meeting point, 'by the cut', changing changes in relationships and the dynamics of the group. The song's chorus, with its repetitions of 'The grass was greener, The light was brighter', highlights the human tendency to idealize the past, seeing it as a time of greater vivacity and happiness. The song ends with the image of an 'endless river', perhaps symbolizing the continuity of life and the eternal search for satisfaction and fulfillment, despite the many times we have already walked the same path. 'High Hopes' is a melancholic meditation on the human desire to achieve our dreams and aspirations, whilst struggling with the realities of life and the weight of our ambitions. The story about the creation of "High Hopes" is extremely curious. For those who imagine that such a crafted and detailed song would have required a long time to mature, David Gilmour brings a completely opposite reality. He says: "High Hopes was actually supposed to be the last song on the album (Division Bell), a kind of finale, in one way or another. It's one of those songs that you work on quickly but beautifully, almost immediately. I carried some ideas with me into a cassette tape, with just a few bars of piano, and I went to a little house somewhere with Polly, to try to make some progress on writing lyrics. She gave me a phrase and very quickly we wrote it. Then I went back to the studio, with no one else there, I completed it and put it in a demo. I did everything myself and I can say that it was completed virtually in a single day."
I’ve also shed tears to all three songs dozens of times. David Gilmour has many other solos with this level of emotion, but I personally believe A Great Day For Freedom live from Gdańsk with orchestra tops them all. It’s incredible how much emotion comes from his hands
That is the essence of Pink Floyd. It stirs your emotions to the core. After listening to a song like that, you feel like you had your eyes opened to a new perspective on life.
I believe you are spot on with your reaction Stacey. Pink Floyd's music has much emotional content and is so easy to relate to and David's gift of playing touches the soul of us all. This year I turn 60, with graying hair and wrinkles starting to arrive, i am left contemplative which I suspect is much the point of his music. Hope you find as many years enjoying them as I have!
Outside of my previous comment about the Division Bell, David Gilmour's guitar solos take you to a place where emotions run free. You can listen to the same song over and over and experience the same emotional rollercoaster of feelings. Great reaction.
My favorite Pink Floyd song is Coming Back to Life. It is one of their very few feel good songs. It's about, no matter who has put you through the wringer and crapped on you in the past, saying screw that I'm going back to my hopes and dreams and goals, with or without you. The bell tolling at the beginning is The Division Bell, a bell that is rung in British Parliament to signal and time (8 minutes) to vote for or against a resolution. It also signals the start of the day and 2 minutes of prayer. You're not far off, it's actually an epilogue, looking back on your life in old age and the High Hopes you had for your life when you were young.
This song evokes childhood memories of summer in a typical English village set in green rolling countryside on a sunny Sunday morning, the village church bellringing, playing in the corner of the farmer's field with friends where hollows in the hedgerows became our dens, and we'd jump across a small brook, occasionally losing our footing and getting our feet wet. Happy days.
Excellent reaction. This is probably their best song post Roger Waters. I have had the pleasure of seeing this live 5 times. It definitely hits the feels. And since you are doing Pink Floyd and Nightwish on the channel, the next logical song choice would be the Nightwish cover/tribute of this song. Out of the 200+ concerts I have attended, Pink Floyd and Nightwish were probably the best shows start to finish.
Nobody can throw their soul at you with a guitar like David Gilmour does I'm 60 and I always come back to Pink Floyd Thanks for your brilliant analysis
I understand the tears are tears of sheer bliss and musical pleasure it's the same for me and I'm sure for thousands and thousands of true pink floyd fans pink floyd have always had their fingers on the pulse of human emotion David gilmour for me is a modern day pied piper and his fellow musicians are all geniuses in their own right what an incredible combination and an incredible group I've been a fan for over fifty odd years and still can't get enough what does that tell you great reaction loved it rock on
Pink Floyd is by far THE BEST band to ever exist. I'm almost 39 and I've been listening to them since I was 8 years old. My parents actually let myself and my sister watch the movie, when we were kids. Pink Floyd is forever my favorite.
Just imagine listening to this entire album while driving around in a convertible mustang in Hawaii with the top down, the sea breeze blowing and the sound of the surf as accompaniment. I did that right after this album came out and now every time I hear any song from the album it transports me right back to that magical place in time.
Bright Angel Stacey, I love your channel and your sincere heartfelt commentary. When music touches the soul, it becomes part of you that never dies. It's a form of magic that reflects the kind, thoughtful person you are.
Watching you cry to this solo made me cry because while music is a very subjective experience that is unique to every listener, seeing it affect someone else the way it does me makes me feel even more connected to it. I realize I'm not experiencing these emotions alone, and I'm not entirely accustomed to that. Thank you for sharing that with me.
To me, this song tells the history of Pink Floyd, their beginnings, their rise to fame and their drive to continue through the chaos and struggles to recapture their past
I wait to see the exact point Stacey is due to have an inner emotional explosion. Its very hard to describe, I cry too, I am a bloke and not ashamed, it think it is utter tears of joy that cannot be described even by the most saluted or celebrated literary genius.
I love seeing the music I grew up with having an impact with a younger audience. Music touches emotion and can be varied....... watching the Pulse tour reminds me of taking my new wife to her very first concert.... emotions are tied to memories and often those pair well with music. And I shed a tear along with you.....
Makes me emotional seeing you get emotional to my favorite band. I was always amazed at how PF used so many different instruments and sounds that to this day I still pick up on different sounds throughout a song. At props to cat mom! We got to see the kitty cat in this one.
Hi Stacey, it's very interesting to me watching a young lady literally become a fan of a band i have loved for some 50yr or more & it's a beautiful thing to watch. keep going & your appreciation will only grow i'm looking forward to watching your journey.
Nice choice of song, you’re digging deep into PF’s repertoire, Time or Great gig in the sky would be a great follow on. You got the meaning of it pretty much right, nice reaction. Just out of interest Nightwish have done a cover of this, Marko sings it! Jeez if you’re blubbering at this I dread to think what you’re gonna be like when you hear Paulina from The Warning singing her cover of Creep by Radiohead!!!
The bell is the parliament’s division bell, but to me, sounds here as a powerful symbol : it is the bell that rings the time when you depart from childhood’s fusional experience of the world, the time when you set out for fame, money, ambition and other social decoys … and lose touch with the sensuous and rapturous matter of life. Eventually, it is the tolling bell of your childhood’s funeral. And the beautifully elegiac music targets the core of your heart. Once again. Pink Floyd is the only band I know of whose music merges so perfectly emotion and meaning. All my love to you all who are as moved by it as I am.
Striving for success and achieving goals is no guarantee of happiness. The path is everything and the past is an integral part of that. That's the message I take from this classic. And you were absolutely right. The nostalgia is intended
It was very emotional to see your reaction on this song, I think your emotions came out in a more physical way than the others. It made me feel more also. I’ve listened to Pink Floyd since I was a toddler, so we can say their music have been part of what makes me who I am today. High hopes is one of my favorites, and I will really recommend you to listen and react to «Time» which have some really hard hitting lyrics. Thank You for sharing your musical journey with us ❤
The switch from beautiful, melodic Spanish guitar making you feel all warm and cozy with his reassuring vocals, to the wild screech of a Fender slide guitar can upset anyone's sense of balance. But that's the point. Right? Cry all you want.
Another great reaction, Stacey. You are definitely not alone when shedding soulful tears during Pink Floyd's transcendent music..... I'd like to break down this great Pulse concert for you, in regards to the type of music they perform at this show. For more beautiful, moving ballads, check out Shine On You Crazy Diamond (the concert opener), Wish You Were Here, The Great Gig In The Sky, and Us And Them. When you want a break from tearing up, go to their faster songs, which have a unique, mesmerizing power all their own: Keep Talking, Another Brick In The Wall, One Of These Days, Sorrow, and the concert finale: Run Like Hell.... Another great rocker from an earlier concert (1987): The Dogs Of War (from the same Delicate Sound Of Thunder film you watched for On The Turning Away). For me, it is one of the great over-looked gems from Pink Floyd's live performances.
There always was an extreme melancholy around Pink Floyd, or at least many of their songs. This is about life passing, the endless river, for ever and ever just gets me… I still cry, nd I am 65.
This one is really great. Gilmour is a treat. And if you like this one....I am 100% sure you will also like the Cover Version of this done by Nightwish....They covered that on the DVD End of an Era....give it a try...you dont have to compare it to this one.....just look at it and lets enjoy it together. I am sure it will be a treat.
Great reaction. You must listen to "On the turning away" 20 years ago i drove home in the middle of the night from hospital after my mum has died. That song was on repeat on the car stereo all the way home. It was so perfect at that time.
Music is a great gift we have.... Thank you for the great commentary... Definitely helping to inspire a new generation... As an older guy it really is nice to see how many young people admire this majestic music of the mind, heart and soul... Music is a great gift we should all be happy we have it. ........ Imagine the world with no music. ... Keep up the great work... You are a superb inspiration to the generation of today. These are all great videos to watch.
Tengo 65 y se imaginarán cuantas veces he escuchado los solos de guitarra de Gilmour. Siempre se me inundan los ojos y se me arruga el corazón. Esos músicos han sido seres de luz.
No surprise at all Stacey. This song taps into some really deep stuff. For me it's a sadness of realizing how short this life is and how I've got less time left than I've already experienced. It's so hard to articulate, but when David starts into the steel guitar solo, I lose it every time. He's such a gifted musician to be able to make a song mean so much to us. It's universal. I am incredibly fortunate to be able to see David in concert next month in the Hollywood Bowl. I never thought I'd have the chance. High Hopes is in the set list, and I'll tell you right now I'm going to have a lump in my throat when the bell starts and a complete puddle when he does the solo. Thanks for posting this.
I enjoy your reactions as they remind me of how I felt the first time I heard these Pink Floyd tunes. Thanks! "Run Like Hell" from Pulse is the final song of the encore and probably won't cry 😅
I watched David Gilmour play live at Royal Albert Hall in London a few years ago and when he played this song, as well as Comfortably Numb and Shine On I cried like a baby - partly because of the experience of watching a master Ive grown up with live, but also undeniably because these songs are masterpieces of emotional, melodic intent drawn from real experience telling you a story. Pink Floyd are unsurpassed.
Hello Stacey, thanks for the reaction, David has a unique language of expressing himself through his guitar(s). the instrument he was playing in the last solo is a Steel Guitar, in general a normal guitar can be used using a Steel Slide, a type of tube that is placed, for example, on the ring finger of the left hand, a method often used by guitarist Chris Rea. Thank you very much for the video and yes Pink Floyd "forces" us to cry without wanting to. Greetings from Portugal 🇵🇹
Every time that music wakes up your emotions, makes you cry or give you goose bumps you know for sure that this music touches you and it is part of your personal music collection. That music is on the same wavelength as your soul/spirit referring your life experience.
Stacey, I love your heartfelt reactions. I’m 64 years old, and they have been a favorite of mine for many years. David makes the guitar sing. Would you like to hear young Pink Floyd? In 1971, released in 1972, they recorded Echoes in an ancient outdoor stadium in Pompeii, Italy. No audience. Just them and the film crew. One of the UA-cam videos that captures this is Pink Floyd-“Echoes” Pompeii. That is Part 1 on the HDPinkFloyd channel. A video that shows both parts is Pink Floyd-Echoes/Live at Pompeii (full). I highly recommend. A year after this, in 1973, came their hugely successful Dark Side of the Moon album.
Eight months later I know, Stacey but if you haven't heard the song yet I heartily recommend "Learning to Fly." That one gets played at my remembrance after I'm out of here. It's a song about life of course and it hits like all of the three I've seen you hear so far. Like the Classical music from the past, Floyd will be remembered centuries from now when the rest have turned to dust on the lens of time. The guitar David did his solo on was a steel guitar which is actually very much used in country music. Leave it to David to lift such a beautiful solo from it. At 78 I've been following Floyd from the very beginning and loved it all.
Loved the reaction, thank you 🙏🏻. The guitar David plays is a slide guitar, he holds a tube in his left hand and slides over the strings and that gives it that twangy sound. Next on the list…. ? Studio version of “The Great Gig in the Sky”. Little disclaimer, this song is from their album “Dark Side of the Moon” arguably the best album ever made. It’s a concept album which is best listened from beginning to end.
I've always loved this song since my 20's. Now in my mid 50's and, for me, it feels like a beautiful musical lamentful self-eulogy that opens one to reflective mourning over their own faults and missed opportunities.

The endless river- Forever and ever!
Agree ❤it and at the same time feel😢
I am 65 years (male), and I always could cry when I listen to this fantastic song, one of my favorit of all time.
the same here!
I am 67 years (male too) and same here with most of the songs of this amazing and unrepeatable band. I am grateful to life for many things but, especially, for having been able to grow up, mature and grow old with their music.
24yr old male, probably my favourite song
So you aren't an alphabet person? You are certain you are a (male) 🤔 😂❤
Same here.
You know it is a perfect day when you cry to Gilmour’s guitar solo 🙏🏻💫
A Gilmour solo will make even the worst day better
damn , man, don't give away the secret
I can't remember who said it, but Gilmour could make a cheap ukelele sound like a Stradivarius.
Pink Floyd is medicine for the soul. Attending a Pink Floyd concert is a complete sensory experience where you can open and bare your soul.
I'd give everything to feel it
I just love the way you just get Pink Floyd, I also cry to them, they are my go to band Stacy, you just can't get better than them, perfection to say the least, sending love to you from Plymouth England 🏴
Your nervous system is the real musical instrument and Pink Floyd is plucking those strings for you. It's magical.
Well put.
Yeah, how do they do it😢 Genius musicians of all time ever in history of human kind😢
David Gilmour never wastes a note. Absolute genius and I've never heard anyone make the guitar cry the way Dave Gilmour does. That solo at the end is one of the sweetest ever.
Also, I'll never get over how brilliant this song is. It's perfect and beautiful beyond words. Perfectly composed, arranged and orquestrated. A true masterpiece.

Who is not crying while listening to most Pink Floyd songs? I think it is beautiful that you allow yourself to cry in front of a camera!
Pink Floyd is an experience that everyone should have at least once, This song is so beautiful, emotional, sad, and inspiring all at the same time. 😊❤
i didn't hear frank sinatra singing in this song!!!
@@normankennith7919Shut and and go away!

The album "The Division Bell", is largely about (non-) communication and especially about the mentality where simple words can often solve many problems in life.
The Division Bell is the name of a bell that rings at the Palace of Westminster, Houses of Parliament (London, UK).
The bell indicates to parliamentarians that the debates will resume, or that these debates are coming to an end, that it's time to move on to the final vote.
To put this song in context, you could try: Pink Floyd - Keep Talking (PULSE Restored & Re-Edited).
Here's a sample of what you might hear in Keep Talking: "Why won't you talk to me? - You never talk to me - What are you thinking?"
The Division Bell title was suggested by Douglas Adams author of Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy
It’s those songs with deep meaning that will make you think and remind you of what makes up life that Pink Floyd so perfectly makes
I thought was also used to break up fights between individuals out in public establishments. Is this true as well?
The difference between most of the "guitar-greats" and David Gilmour is his incredible ability to make his guitar cry. I've never heard a guitar player get as much emotion out of his instrument like he can. For a truly mindblowing Floyd experience, you should watch Echoes live from Gdansk. It's a life changing song... Thank you for your wonderful reaction! It was a joy to watch.
Sono completamente d accordo con te , David ti entra direttamente nel cuore come nessun altro.
Ho avuto la fortuna di vederlo nel 1987 e nel 1994 con i PINK Floyd .....PAZZESCO.
Poi l ho visto nel 2006 assieme al suo Fraterno Amico RICHARD WRYGHT ed infine a POMPEI NEL 2016 mi sembra ....
Rimani senza parole , solo lacrime .....un ANGELO CADUTO PER NOI ❤❤❤❤❤
You are so lucky to get to see him live. Can't imagine what that experience would be like.@@sebastianocangini3834
Gilmour is a triple threat, incredible voice, incredible guitarist, and you should see him when he gets on the dancefloor.
Oh I would love to see that!!
The live at Pompeii version of "echoes " has Gilmour at his best, doing the whole guitar god thing in his early 20s shirtless in the Italian sun😅😅
@@swfcocs1 ^ My favourite Floyd song.
Piacerebbe pure a mw vedere ballare nonno Dave .😁😄😄😄
Ma intanto lo preferisco musicista e cantante che emoziona 😍
Incredible live performance, we freaked when we first saw it at the theater.
Yes young girl......Nice to know you love our music...We r the boomers from the 70's-80's...and we used to love this Rock music back then
We still do
In point of fact, this song is from 1994.
You got some gen x in the too old man. Lol
I appreciate and enjoy your reactions to Pink Floyd. They are absolutely one of the greatest bands ever. This reaction, in particular, hit me in the feels, watching you soak it all in. Because you also enjoy Nightwish, I strongly recommend that you listen to their tribute to "High Hopes" from the End of an Era concert. Their version is definitely their own, but the respect and admiration for the original certainly shines through.
Definitely worth a listen.
Welcome to the Machine!!! And Wish You Were Here.❤
So glad you discovered Pink Floyd. They do pull you in. So emotional. What you feel is totally normal. Floyd is therapy for me. Welcome aboard
You're spot on, High Hopes is about nostalgia, regrets, yearning for better times. FWIW, I've heard it probably hundreds of times, been a fan for 50 years, and this song still makes me cry, so I'd say you got it exactly right. Great reaction!
True emotion pretty woman, cry all you want. Love DG and Floyd since a teen...60 now no matter...music transcends time...peace.
Great reaction, thank you. David's playing sings to your soul. It's own language.
I tottaly agree, it's a special lenguage that only David can speak with his guitar, it's a magical fusion
He's playing Guitar 2.0 while everyone else is on beta .9
@@OriginalPuro Yes
@@Unvicimo I don't have this kind of reaction to any other player. Never have yet Gilmour brings me to tears or close to it every time for 40 years.
David Gilmore's guitar solos can even break hearts of stone!
GILMOUR.
The instrument David Gilmour is playing is a version of a lap steel guitar made by Fender. Nobody plays it like him. So beautiful. He plays it in several Pink Floyd songs 💗
Referred to as a “steel” guitar because you determine the notes with a steel bar rather than pressing the strings down to the neck.
I always liked to believe that he tried playing it on the guitar but the finger acrobatics was too much to achieve what he wanted out of it. Because it would definitely be some wild bending of the strings to get anywhere close.
@@jonathanroberts8981 basically a fretless guitar.
When he says "forever and ever" I let out a "Oh God" at the exact same time you did. It just proved that that part gets into people's soul.
This is poetry! 💫
The bell in the background is “The Divison Bell” which is used in England to call lawmakers to come and vote.
High Hopes was a last minute addition to the album. Supposedly David was inspired by something his wife said and he constructed the song and recorded a demo by himself in one night and the rest of the band came in and recorded the full song which was added to the album.
They/ you did it again. The greatest therapy is a emotional cleansing.. This world desperately needs one right now.. Love your heart sweetie...
definetly, we all have these emotions inside us and its healthy to let them
out, pink floyd helps us do that with so many of there songs
That was a pedal steel guitar
Their music is timeless. I am proud to say that my 24 YO daughter also loves them. She hated them when she was younger but a more mature mind is all that is needed to appreciate this mastery.
I know you are also a huge Nightwish fan you need to react to their performance of this song live. It is a a gem.
Yes, with the incredible Marko singing what is definitely more of a tribute than a cover of this classic Pink Floyd tune. Nightwish bring something very different out of it while staying true to it's message.
The older you become the better and deeper is the appreciation for the best NandPink Floyd!
Pink Floyd has always been ahead of every other band out there. Be grateful we were around to appreciate this.
Hi, I'm writing to you from Sicily, in southern Italy. I had the fortune, honor and joy of attending the Pink Floyd concert in Rome on 19 September 1994. I was only 17 years old and it was an unforgettable experience. It was incredibly emotional, and even today I am moved listening to them, just as I was moved that day at the concert. Groups like them should be eternal; they would never have to grow old to continue writing songs, or rather, poems. The Pink Floyd videos you are watching are taken from the "Pulse" tour, the one I participated in. However, I highly recommend you watch the entire movie "The Wall" by Pink Floyd.
Ciao Sigilia! My family was from Linguaglossa. 😇🤗😊
Crying when listening to Pink Floyd is totally normal! I'm 57 and I still can't hold back my tears when I hear their music, so don't worry. I saw the Pulse tour live and we all cried!!! I even saw a few people pee their pants.
The sounds at the begining are the sounds of the English countryside which transports me back to when I was a kid.
Quite fitting for the song.
A couple of decades back I was suffering from a form of depression, I hadn't felt anything for what felt like months and thought I was dead inside.
One summers day driving home from work this song came on the CD player and when I got to the slide guitar solo at the end I felt for the first time in what felt like a long time and all my emotions came out all at once.
I had to pull over because I was crying so much and couldn't drive.
Once I composed myself the rest of the drive home I felt lighter and clearer than I had in weeks and the depression never came back (it's flittered round the edges on occasions but never settled since.)
It was the most amazing catharsis I've ever felt.
This song still takes me back to a childhood in the country with church bells ringing out from villages on a Sunday, endless summers, bees and simpler times.
Music is amazing!
Thank you so much for sharing this story! It’s amazing how music can take us back to these significant moments that we will remember for the rest of our lives. Loved your story!❤️
There’s a reason that there are so many new Floydians even after a half century - they are timeless
Im a 56 year old man, and I always shed a tear when I hear a Gilmour guitar solo because he is just such a brilliant guitar player
The thing about Pink Floyd is that every song is different yet very distinctly Pink Floyd
DG's lap steel solo on "High Hopes" has brought me to tears every time I have heard it, and that is many, many times since 1995.
Wonderful recitation as always! You recognize the key things in Pink Floyd's music very well. I think you should listen to both "I wish you were here" and "Shine on you crazy diamond" as soon as possible. Those two compositions are in a way anthems of many generations ... also pay attention to David Gilmour's solo work after Pink Floyd. you will hear more absolutely phenomenal music. Some say that actually David Gilmour is some kind of god walking the earth. And I mostly agree with that.😇 By all means keep it up. Your reactions are really wonderful.
And the PULSE versions of both are great.
Must hear Time! Tears and nostalgia guaranteed.
Gilmour has one of the greatest voices in rock and his guitar-playing is deeply emotive, so don't apologize for crying. We all do and some of us have been listening to Pink Floyd for 50 years or more. They were far ahead of their time and never get old.
I was crying too, and I’ve heard this song/watched this performance a hundred times. It’s an emotional release; we’re with you. And your interpretation of the lyrics and feeling were spot-on.
Been listening to Pink Floyd since the 70's and still get the feelings. Never tired of any of their songs.
Pink Floyd "Time" album version. You'll love it, trust me 😊
WITH the lyrics.
'The Dawn mist glowing'
'the Water flowing'
t'he endless river, forever and ever'
And Tears.
This is floyd's best song for me by an absolute mile, hauntingly beautiful, incredible lyrics, beautifully arranged, the piano and bell throughout, and that amazing slide guitar solo to top it off. It' never fails to make me cry, just the most beautiful song.
No other guitar player plays like David's guitar. His guitar has a soul that touches my soul.
Listening to High Hopes for the first time in the summer of 1994 when the solo started, it captivated my soul that I stood frozen thinking how someone could play such an instrument that stops in your tracks and takes to another realm where's there is no pain or suffering.
At the end, he knows the innocence of his childhood is gone and we can never go back. The guitar solo is his inconsolable weeping at the realization.
Just found your channel.
PF being my favorite band I was curious to see your reaction because I know this is their most moving song to me, after "Sorrow". I was right there with you with tears and it was only like my 200th time hearing it. Thank you for doing such a respectful reaction / review.
They also move me more than any other band.
Whenever my time comes, i want them to play THIS song full blast at my funeral. I bet nobody will keep it dry when David starts his solo! It's so beautifull!
Also i'm jealous of people that where there at the pulse concert in 1994. I was 4 years old in '94 so i was too young to go. My parents did see them multiple times, so i grew up listening to the records. But i've never had the chance to watch them play live.
One band that still plays progressive music is Porcupine Tree. They started out when bands like Pink Floyd, Genesis, Marillion etc "stopped" making new records. But they are imo just as good, and have an amazing drummer!
I did see them live in their Closure/Continuation tour in the Ziggo Dome Amsterdam. (They released it as a live album/blu ray) It's hands down the best concert i've been to. You should really check them out.
Especially their live performances!
I can tell you, I'm listening to Pink Floyd over thirty years now and even now I have still tears in my eyes. The way David Gilmour let's his guitar sing, he transports emotions right into my heart. So everyone who knows this effect of Pink Floyd's music will understand your reaction. I love it to see how the music touches your heart. And there are still a lot of songs to discover. Feel free for asking for more possible songs. For example I would like to see your reaction to the version of "The great gig in the sky" from the Pulse Concert.
I have seen them three times in concerts ,they were all a dream
"Shine on you Crazy Diamond" is a 20 minute musical artistic masterpiece. Should be your next reaction IMO. New sub!
She definitely needs to react to "shine on" and "dogs" ... but definitely Shine one!!!! Pleasae just do the wish you were here album....
@@luisutil9070 these 2 are tied as my favorite songs of all time.
'High Hopes' is a composition rich in poetic images and symbolism. Released on the album 'The Division Bell' in 1994, the song is often interpreted as a reflection on the past, the loss of innocence and the progressive passage of time. The lyrics, written by guitarist David Gilmour and his wife, Polly Samson, evoke a sense of longing for an idyllic time and place, possibly the band members' youth and the early days of their musical career.
The expression 'world of magnets and miracles' can be seen as a metaphor for the fascination and enchantment of childhood, where everything seems possible and the world is full of wonders. The song also mentions 'the long road' and 'the boardwalk', indicating a journey that the band members have traveled together, and questions whether there is still a common meeting point, 'by the cut', changing changes in relationships and the dynamics of the group.
The song's chorus, with its repetitions of 'The grass was greener, The light was brighter', highlights the human tendency to idealize the past, seeing it as a time of greater vivacity and happiness. The song ends with the image of an 'endless river', perhaps symbolizing the continuity of life and the eternal search for satisfaction and fulfillment, despite the many times we have already walked the same path. 'High Hopes' is a melancholic meditation on the human desire to achieve our dreams and aspirations, whilst struggling with the realities of life and the weight of our ambitions.
The story about the creation of "High Hopes" is extremely curious. For those who imagine that such a crafted and detailed song would have required a long time to mature, David Gilmour brings a completely opposite reality. He says:
"High Hopes was actually supposed to be the last song on the album (Division Bell), a kind of finale, in one way or another. It's one of those songs that you work on quickly but beautifully, almost immediately. I carried some ideas with me into a cassette tape, with just a few bars of piano, and I went to a little house somewhere with Polly, to try to make some progress on writing lyrics. She gave me a phrase and very quickly we wrote it. Then I went back to the studio, with no one else there, I completed it and put it in a demo. I did everything myself and I can say that it was completed virtually in a single day."
I’ve also shed tears to all three songs dozens of times. David Gilmour has many other solos with this level of emotion, but I personally believe A Great Day For Freedom live from Gdańsk with orchestra tops them all. It’s incredible how much emotion comes from his hands
I would LOVE a reaction to A Great Day For Freedom!!!
That is the essence of Pink Floyd. It stirs your emotions to the core. After listening to a song like that, you feel like you had your eyes opened to a new perspective on life.
I believe you are spot on with your reaction Stacey. Pink Floyd's music has much emotional content and is so easy to relate to and David's gift of playing touches the soul of us all. This year I turn 60, with graying hair and wrinkles starting to arrive, i am left contemplative which I suspect is much the point of his music. Hope you find as many years enjoying them as I have!
Pink Floyd is not a concert, it's a production
Best artist ever. He’s on tour right now
Outside of my previous comment about the Division Bell, David Gilmour's guitar solos take you to a place where emotions run free. You can listen to the same song over and over and experience the same emotional rollercoaster of feelings. Great reaction.
Floyd will uppercut you in the feels everytime! Wish I could have seen them at a live show.
My favorite Pink Floyd song is Coming Back to Life. It is one of their very few feel good songs. It's about, no matter who has put you through the wringer and crapped on you in the past, saying screw that I'm going back to my hopes and dreams and goals, with or without you. The bell tolling at the beginning is The Division Bell, a bell that is rung in British Parliament to signal and time (8 minutes) to vote for or against a resolution. It also signals the start of the day and 2 minutes of prayer. You're not far off, it's actually an epilogue, looking back on your life in old age and the High Hopes you had for your life when you were young.
This song evokes childhood memories of summer in a typical English village set in green rolling countryside on a sunny Sunday morning, the village church bellringing, playing in the corner of the farmer's field with friends where hollows in the hedgerows became our dens, and we'd jump across a small brook, occasionally losing our footing and getting our feet wet. Happy days.
Excellent reaction. This is probably their best song post Roger Waters. I have had the pleasure of seeing this live 5 times. It definitely hits the feels. And since you are doing Pink Floyd and Nightwish on the channel, the next logical song choice would be the Nightwish cover/tribute of this song. Out of the 200+ concerts I have attended, Pink Floyd and Nightwish were probably the best shows start to finish.
Nobody can throw their soul at you with a guitar like David Gilmour does
I'm 60 and I always come back to Pink Floyd
Thanks for your brilliant analysis
I understand the tears are tears of sheer bliss and musical pleasure it's the same for me and I'm sure for thousands and thousands of true pink floyd fans pink floyd have always had their fingers on the pulse of human emotion David gilmour for me is a modern day pied piper and his fellow musicians are all geniuses in their own right what an incredible combination and an incredible group I've been a fan for over fifty odd years and still can't get enough what does that tell you great reaction loved it rock on
Pink Floyd is by far THE BEST band to ever exist. I'm almost 39 and I've been listening to them since I was 8 years old. My parents actually let myself and my sister watch the movie, when we were kids. Pink Floyd is forever my favorite.
Just imagine listening to this entire album while driving around in a convertible mustang in Hawaii with the top down, the sea breeze blowing and the sound of the surf as accompaniment. I did that right after this album came out and now every time I hear any song from the album it transports me right back to that magical place in time.
I can picture that perfectly! I bet that was a wonderful time
Sweet!
A magical song. Lost late teenage years. The ending lap-steel solo makes me cry every time I hear it.
Bright Angel Stacey, I love your channel and your sincere heartfelt commentary. When music touches the soul, it becomes part of you
that never dies. It's a form of magic that reflects the kind, thoughtful person you are.
Watching you cry to this solo made me cry because while music is a very subjective experience that is unique to every listener, seeing it affect someone else the way it does me makes me feel even more connected to it. I realize I'm not experiencing these emotions alone, and I'm not entirely accustomed to that. Thank you for sharing that with me.
To me, this song tells the history of Pink Floyd, their beginnings, their rise to fame and their drive to continue through the chaos and struggles to recapture their past
I wait to see the exact point Stacey is due to have an inner emotional explosion. Its very hard to describe, I cry too, I am a bloke and not ashamed, it think it is utter tears of joy that cannot be described even by the most saluted or celebrated literary genius.
I love seeing the music I grew up with having an impact with a younger audience. Music touches emotion and can be varied....... watching the Pulse tour reminds me of taking my new wife to her very first concert.... emotions are tied to memories and often those pair well with music. And I shed a tear along with you.....
Makes me emotional seeing you get emotional to my favorite band. I was always amazed at how PF used so many different instruments and sounds that to this day I still pick up on different sounds throughout a song. At props to cat mom! We got to see the kitty cat in this one.
Hi Stacey, it's very interesting to me watching a young lady literally become a fan of a band i have loved for some 50yr or more & it's a beautiful thing to watch. keep going & your appreciation will only grow i'm looking forward to watching your journey.
This is the music I was brought up on so it's nice to hear and see a beautiful girl exposed to and feeling the wondrous Pink Floyd.
Nice choice of song, you’re digging deep into PF’s repertoire, Time or Great gig in the sky would be a great follow on.
You got the meaning of it pretty much right, nice reaction.
Just out of interest Nightwish have done a cover of this, Marko sings it!
Jeez if you’re blubbering at this I dread to think what you’re gonna be like when you hear Paulina from The Warning singing her cover of Creep by Radiohead!!!
Time or The Great Gig in the Sky would be my choice too. Songs that should be listened to daily to remind you of some important fundamentals of life 👍
The bell is the parliament’s division bell, but to me, sounds here as a powerful symbol : it is the bell that rings the time when you depart from childhood’s fusional experience of the world, the time when you set out for fame, money, ambition and other social decoys … and lose touch with the sensuous and rapturous matter of life. Eventually, it is the tolling bell of your childhood’s funeral. And the beautifully elegiac music targets the core of your heart. Once again.
Pink Floyd is the only band I know of whose music merges so perfectly emotion and meaning.
All my love to you all who are as moved by it as I am.
The reaction this song deserves.
Striving for success and achieving goals is no guarantee of happiness. The path is everything and the past is an integral part of that. That's the message I take from this classic. And you were absolutely right. The nostalgia is intended
It was very emotional to see your reaction on this song, I think your emotions came out in a more physical way than the others. It made me feel more also. I’ve listened to Pink Floyd since I was a toddler, so we can say their music have been part of what makes me who I am today. High hopes is one of my favorites, and I will really recommend you to listen and react to «Time» which have some really hard hitting lyrics.
Thank You for sharing your musical journey with us ❤
The switch from beautiful, melodic Spanish guitar making you feel all warm and cozy with his reassuring vocals, to the wild screech of a Fender slide guitar can upset anyone's sense of balance. But that's the point. Right? Cry all you want.
Another great reaction, Stacey. You are definitely not alone when shedding soulful tears during Pink Floyd's transcendent music..... I'd like to break down this great Pulse concert for you, in regards to the type of music they perform at this show. For more beautiful, moving ballads, check out Shine On You Crazy Diamond (the concert opener), Wish You Were Here, The Great Gig In The Sky, and Us And Them. When you want a break from tearing up, go to their faster songs, which have a unique, mesmerizing power all their own: Keep Talking, Another Brick In The Wall, One Of These Days, Sorrow, and the concert finale: Run Like Hell.... Another great rocker from an earlier concert (1987): The Dogs Of War (from the same Delicate Sound Of Thunder film you watched for On The Turning Away). For me, it is one of the great over-looked gems from Pink Floyd's live performances.
There always was an extreme melancholy around Pink Floyd, or at least many of their songs. This is about life passing, the endless river, for ever and ever just gets me… I still cry, nd I am 65.
This one is really great. Gilmour is a treat. And if you like this one....I am 100% sure you will also like the Cover Version of this done by Nightwish....They covered that on the DVD End of an Era....give it a try...you dont have to compare it to this one.....just look at it and lets enjoy it together. I am sure it will be a treat.
Dont mention the nightwish army ! im one 😀 and Marko could make his guitar sing prior to his departure.
Thank you for showing everyone just how we all feel.
Great reaction.
You must listen to "On the turning away"
20 years ago i drove home in the middle of the night from hospital after my mum has died. That song was on repeat on the car stereo all the way home. It was so perfect at that time.
Music is a great gift we have.... Thank you for the great commentary... Definitely helping to inspire a new generation... As an older guy it really is nice to see how many young people admire this majestic music of the mind, heart and soul... Music is a great gift we should all be happy we have it. ........ Imagine the world with no music. ... Keep up the great work... You are a superb inspiration to the generation of today. These are all great videos to watch.
If Pink Floyd doesn't move you nothing will. A fantastic song.
This is the most honest and emotional reaction I've seen for some time. Please show more!
Tengo 65 y se imaginarán cuantas veces he escuchado los solos de guitarra de Gilmour. Siempre se me inundan los ojos y se me arruga el corazón. Esos músicos han sido seres de luz.
No surprise at all Stacey. This song taps into some really deep stuff. For me it's a sadness of realizing how short this life is and how I've got less time left than I've already experienced. It's so hard to articulate, but when David starts into the steel guitar solo, I lose it every time. He's such a gifted musician to be able to make a song mean so much to us. It's universal. I am incredibly fortunate to be able to see David in concert next month in the Hollywood Bowl. I never thought I'd have the chance. High Hopes is in the set list, and I'll tell you right now I'm going to have a lump in my throat when the bell starts and a complete puddle when he does the solo. Thanks for posting this.
I enjoy your reactions as they remind me of how I felt the first time I heard these Pink Floyd tunes. Thanks!
"Run Like Hell" from Pulse is the final song of the encore and probably won't cry 😅
I watched David Gilmour play live at Royal Albert Hall in London a few years ago and when he played this song, as well as Comfortably Numb and Shine On I cried like a baby - partly because of the experience of watching a master Ive grown up with live, but also undeniably because these songs are masterpieces of emotional, melodic intent drawn from real experience telling you a story. Pink Floyd are unsurpassed.
Hello Stacey, thanks for the reaction, David has a unique language of expressing himself through his guitar(s). the instrument he was playing in the last solo is a Steel Guitar, in general a normal guitar can be used using a Steel Slide, a type of tube that is placed, for example, on the ring finger of the left hand, a method often used by guitarist Chris Rea. Thank you very much for the video and yes Pink Floyd "forces" us to cry without wanting to. Greetings from Portugal 🇵🇹
Hey fellow countryman brother, fellow PF and Gilmour fan, and guitar player. Always nice to see another Portuguese here.
Every time that music wakes up your emotions, makes you cry or give you goose bumps you know for sure that this music touches you and it is part of your personal music collection. That music is on the same wavelength as your soul/spirit referring your life experience.
Pink Floyd forever ❤❤
One of my absolute favs.
Stacey, I love your heartfelt reactions. I’m 64 years old, and they have been a favorite of mine for many years. David makes the guitar sing. Would you like to hear young Pink Floyd? In 1971, released in 1972, they recorded Echoes in an ancient outdoor stadium in Pompeii, Italy. No audience. Just them and the film crew. One of the UA-cam videos that captures this is Pink Floyd-“Echoes” Pompeii. That is Part 1 on the HDPinkFloyd channel. A video that shows both parts is Pink Floyd-Echoes/Live at Pompeii (full). I highly recommend. A year after this, in 1973, came their hugely successful Dark Side of the Moon album.
Eight months later I know, Stacey but if you haven't heard the song yet I heartily recommend
"Learning to Fly."
That one gets played at my remembrance after I'm out of here. It's a song about life of course and it hits like all of the three I've seen you hear so far.
Like the Classical music from the past, Floyd will be remembered centuries from now when the rest have turned to dust on the lens of time.
The guitar David did his solo on was a steel guitar which is actually very much used in country music. Leave it to David to lift such a beautiful solo from it. At 78 I've been following Floyd from the very beginning and loved it all.
The greatest band, takes you to place no others do.
That's what Pink Floyd Music Does. It Grabs You And Never Lets Go.
Exactly! This was the very first song, when i started interesting on Pink Floyd music. It's amazing band
Loved the reaction, thank you 🙏🏻. The guitar David plays is a slide guitar, he holds a tube in his left hand and slides over the strings and that gives it that twangy sound.
Next on the list…. ? Studio version of “The Great Gig in the Sky”. Little disclaimer, this song is from their album “Dark Side of the Moon” arguably the best album ever made. It’s a concept album which is best listened from beginning to end.
He's playing a pedal steel guitar.
@@neillenet291 thank you for correcting 👍🏼
That Spanish guitar solo in the middle is AMAZING! So love Pink Floyd and especially after waters left.
One of favorite pink Floyd songs
I've always loved this song since my 20's. Now in my mid 50's and, for me, it feels like a beautiful musical lamentful self-eulogy that opens one to reflective mourning over their own faults and missed opportunities.
