Hello Everyone! I hope you loved the video as much as I loved creating it!🤘 I plan on releasing another music reaction this week! I haven’t decided quite yet so drop them in the comments! I finished editing this video and uploading it at 3AM…I release videos at 10AM EST! So if there are any errors or inconsistencies in editing, give editor Bimu a pat on the back, cause I REALLY wanted to release this today!🤘 Again, thank you for your love and support. I wouldn’t have gotten the chance to submit an Application to UA-cams Partner Program if it weren’t for you❤️🤘
So many feel they are taken into another dimension/floatimg through the Universe,who else can do that?.Now imagine taking LSD & listening to P.F........:))
Judging by your library you might enjoy a song called Roundabout by YES. The GOATS of prog. Enjoy your Floyd journey. The 70s were the best for music lovers. 🙏🎶
You haven't heard ECHOES yet...! Make sure you do the audio version first before the Pompeii version. The audio version gives you the FULL picture of what the band intended, with complete sonic overload throughout the song. It is 23:32 of music out of this world!
@@gbsailing9436 I can't agree with you more...we always had the record first, then went to the concerts, especially with Floyd, it's always a journey, you really have to listen to them in one sitting, then you could enjoy "the singles" because you had a context from which to place that particular song...ROck ON!!
Music is just wonderful like that. I’m glad I was able to discover your favorite music today🤘🤘 thank you for the comment and like on the video. You are appreciated around here.❤️🤘🤘
I’m 70 and have been lucky to have seen Pink Floyd 2 times,the last time was for the “Dark Side Of The Moon”tour. What he’s missing is the amazing Pink Floyd light show that is a big part of their performance. These were good times musically. Mid 70’s was a great time to be young and have this music to listen to.
At 78. Pink floyd has been part of my life for over 50 years. Love them as much now as i did early on. Lucky enough to have seen them live in the late 80s. Nice to see videos of younger people discovering the experience. Real music. No one plays instruments anymore.
Indeed, brother... There is NO WAY anything like this could possibly be produced today... And why? Because the younger generations are SO IMPATIENT and want it all right now. I watch younger reactora who have trouble sitting still and just listening to PF, it's like they've got ants in their pants... But, at 65 myself, you and I KNOW the value of this iconic band, something that most of the younger generation can neither understand not have any interest in... It doesn't appeal to the hedonistic, "Gotta have it all right now" mentality. Truly sad what's happened to the music industry since the 1970s....
Pink Floyd is deeper than the Mariana trench, higher than any satellites orbiting earth, cooler than an iceberg in a river of liquid nitrogen, hotter than a solar flare of lava spouted from the sun, smoother than a quantum stabilized atom mirror, more Zen than 10,000 Buddhist monasteries, larger than what we know as our universe. Their music is an enigma that is beyond what we are capable of comprehending. There music is timeless.
I watch a lot of reaction videos and I have to say that your use of text to indicate what you are feeling at the various moments of the performance without the need to stop it is just wonderful.
Excellent point! Allows continuity of the song while getting his thoughts which, by inserting as text, are thought out and more on point than if he had just blurted out unprocessed words and interrupted. I like this guy! He gets it!😊
When I played this album in 1979 my Nan told me it was beautiful music and said the lyrics must be about a friend who was (mad) very insightful lady. ps have been lucky enough to see them live 😂❤ Nan was born in 1902. Thanks for the reaction
Yes they will! This is my 4th Pink Floyd reaction and it just keeps on getting better and better! I can’t wait to discover more of their discography!🤘 Thank you for the comment and like on the video! I appreciate you and I hope to see you around here more often!
One of the most beautiful musical compositions ever created - it is a journey through your heart, mind and soul that can only make you richer for the experience ❤️
My favorite Pink Floyd memory is as a young adult many years ago my elderly father (he was 33 when I was born ) called me up one day and asked me if I wanted to go to the local Planetarium to see a laser light show of traveling through the Universe that was entirely done to The Dark Side Of The Moon album -- What a journey that was let me tell you ---Thanks Daddy --- I miss you ---
I had the same experience in Mpls., MN the night before the concert. We were all sitting in our reclining chairs looking up at the ceiling, watching, wondering how it was done with the lasers. I remember the song Money was playing and when the sax solo came in suddenly a spotlight came on and there was Dick Perry right in front of us actually playing the solo. What do you do??? Do you watch the lasers or do you watch Dick Perry??? What a wonderful problem to have!! We were waiting for him when the sax came in on Us and Them. He got a standing ovation from us and you could tell he wasn't expecting one. I'll never forget his smile. BTW: I was in the second row (he was right in front of me just off to the right) and I could actually "feel" the sonic waves from the sax. It was almost better than the concert the next night....almost. It was the Delicate Sound of Thunder tour. It was in the HHH Metrodome and I was seated in the second deck. Not the best seats. When the PULSE/Division Bell tour came I was ground level row 28. Much better.
I saw a similar show at the planetarium in Edinburgh's Dynamic Earth, just last December. Pink Floyd's music is perfect for the universe. The perfect symmetry of the end of Eclipse and the end of the film was amazing.
Part I always takes me to a desert on another planet millions of light years away. I bought the vinyl LP the day it was released in the US in 1975 and it still sounds every bit as fresh and relevant as it did then. Congratulations on discovering the best band I've ever heard and still my #1 band after 50 years. This music will last you a lifetime. Enjoy!
I was driving out of Memphis late one night in '76. I stopped at a small music store and picked up Wish You Were Here on cassette . I took off down I-40 for about 5 minutes before I decided to take the back roads for the 90 miles I had to go. I drove till daylight and listened to this album over and over again. It's one of their best. Watching you listen to this music for the first time somehow helps me hear with fresh ears. I've been a fan for 56 years and I hope you can be the same. Great video!
Now, do yourself a favor and watch this performance from The Pulse Concert. I sat front row center with a dozen friends in the New Orleans Superdome, in 94’ watching Floyd’s original saxophonist from Dark Side and the Wish albums, Dave Parry, perform that final solo with two saxophones slung over his shoulder. Started with the Baritone Sax, then throwing it over his shoulder in the middle of his solo to grab the Tenor Sax at the change in time signature through that remarkable fade-out. A brilliant performance. Btw, David Gilmour has said that his performance of “Comfortably Numb” that night was the best live performance of his career. It certainly was my favorite.
Your reaction was a mirror of thousands who listen to Pink Floyd. You asked for memories. 30 years ago, i drove home, 2 hours threw the forests in the middle of the night from hospital where my mother just had died. All the way, with the volume on top on the car stereo i played this. It give me so much strength from somewhere. Only a Pink Floyd song can do that in a moment like that. ua-cam.com/video/xEMy34qhQe4/v-deo.htmlsi=tFdPLlEOI4jbbAp6
S)nine on (Y)ou Crazy (D)iamond is Floyd's tribute to founding member, lead guitarist, main vocalist and songwriter Syd Barrett. In 1968, after achieving great success in the psychedelic/pop genre, Syd suffered a complete psychological breakdown (due to a combination of undiagnosed schizophrenia, way too much LSD, and intense pressure from the record company) and had to leave the band. That's when David Gilmour (who was a childhood chum of Syd's) stepped in to replace him. Unfortunately he never recovered and spent his remaining years as a recluse. However, not so coincidentally, he showed up unannounced and unrecognizable at the studio during the recording of this album (1974) It was a very traumatic event for the remaining members, to say the least.
I have absolutely loved this song even as a teen but when I learned the meaning of the song itself became the moment that I cry everytime that I hear it now.
You said your ears never smile like this before, but you didn’t say that your soul felt warm and fuzzy. This very old metal rock head loves seeing new generations find these experiences discovering Pink Floyd it makes my soul warm and comfortably numb! God Bless Rock On Stay Safe!🙏👍🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
Thanks, Floyd! PF is not an "easy" listen.. takes incredible patience to hear it develop.. and this one is so much about Syd Barrett.. as even many other songs are.. he's the "missing" piece that was a key to their start... a total "Crazy Diamond".. (I also like having heard that David G. took care of Syd, after his leaving the band..making sure he got royalties, etc.. ) I appreciate your listen...
Pink Floyd takes you on a journey with each album. It's very much a matter of just closing the eyes and letting the sound wash over you. And the music never gets old. I've been listening to them for decades and still love the music every bit as much as the first time.
A number of years ago my wife and I visited Mauthusen, a WWII death camp near Vienna, this was deeply moving.. when I returned to Canada I took the photos and videos and set them to “Welcome to Machine” it suited the subject matter well.
You must do a double reaction next. Studio version first of the great gig in the sky, followed by the pulse concert version. This will leave you absolutely speechless, and I'm looking forward to it.
Saw them do this in 1977 on their Wish You Were Here/ Animals tour. Absolutely one of the best shows I’ve seen. I could rave on but the music speaks for itself
Looks like you're figuring out that Pink Floyd don't simply plug into their equipment - they plug directly into you mind and soul. We have been listening to this incredible music for fifty years. Even though we can never hear it again for the first time, watching you listening for the very first time is nearly as good. As you get deeper into PF, you'll need to watch more P.U.L.S.E. live performances of these tracks - fasten your seatbelt for them to avoid injury. Enjoy.
It's a saxophone. And YES on Part 2 (VI- IX)- it's even better than what you've heard. And yes, I sub'd about 5 tunes ago. Peace, love and bellbottoms from Canada
I love your appreciation of Pink Floyd. They have been a huge part of my life since their first album. (Of course, they became a spiritual experience for me with a little help from LSD.)
What a brilliant idea to use subtitles for the comments so as to not interrupt the music and allow it to play without pausing. There is nothing more frustrating when beautiful music is constantly being paused and talked over. Shine on you crazy diamond is so amazing. I have listened to it so many times over the years, and yet it still gives me goosebumps each and every time. The comment that it is not just music but an experience is the best way to sum up Pink Floyd they take you away to another place on a sonic journey. Nobody even comes close to their brilliance as musicians. Gilmour has great vocals, but he sings more eloquently through his guitar transcending mere words.
Saw them in concert sat main floor next to the computer banks. As they programmed in the laser show could look up to see it, was amazed how they tied to the music.
What an amazing song and outstanding music. Way PF manages their music including lyrics, instruments, I don’t think no name has even come slide to them
First time I listened to this was in Astronomy class my senior year of high school. Our school has a planetarium and our teacher let us bring i music to listen to at the beginning of clas. One song, then on to lessons. This was 1989 and we had Dolby 5.1 which was a big deal back then. Kid brings in this album not telling the teacher it's a 13-minute song, hits "play." Lights go down, stars light up, and I had what I can only describe as an out-of-body experience. Like being on a trip without drugs. Been hooked on this drug ever since. Withdrawals can be easily solved by more Floyd.
SO HAPPY that you chose the studio version - so as not to be distracted by video - or miss the parts that don't get played live. As for better headphones....if you can afford a hundred, there's no better choice than Sennheiser HD 280 PRO. They are a studio reference headphone that I've come to love after trying 30 different pairs through the years. They are TRUELY flat response, which means you are hearing what was meant to be heard.
I'm a 68. Year old pink Floyd fan. I had the honor of seeing Floyd at the pulse concert Oct 20th 1994 at earls court London England while in the navy. The tour was a division bell tour. This is the concert everyone reacts to. Floyd took my soul injected pure music and gave it back to me. Please react to great gig in the sky pulse concert. It will blow your mind
@@lesblatnyak5947you're allowed to have your subjective oppinion, but for me the consert was better because they dared themselves to play with the songs and give them a new and wider expression. Buuuuuut, that's my subjective oppinion that you're allowed to disagree to
Bro, love ur reactions to Floyd it makes me laugh and smile with the captions you post regarding the emotions on yoyr face. “Time” is the next song and natural progression in the rabbit hole but don’t want to screw with you listening to the Dark Side of the Moon in its entirety in one session ending with “Eclipse”. You should consider doing a reaction to the entire album in one vid with no pauses. Life changing. Also do the same with The Wall. Would be an epic reaction. Another single to consider reacting to is “Mother”. It’s so unique and brilliant and shows the incredible range of Pink Floyd.
I know everyone likes to pulse concert, but several years earlier there was the “ delicate sound of Thunder” Tour, this concert was filmed in 35 mm and put out on DVD. I like that performance a little better than the pulse concert
Great reaction! I enjoyed reading your comments as the music played. This is the GOAT trilogy from Pink Floyd. Dark Side, Wish You Were Here and Animals. Bookend them with Echoes and Comfortably Numb. All classics and Masterpieces. I got this album at age 15, 1977. Used to take my stereo system to high school, and crank albums during (outdoor) lunch. Lol. I highy recommend listening to these albums in song order. They each are a journey.
Great reactions! I saw the pulse concert in 94. Lose the ear buds and get some headphones! Sorrow pulse tour and echoes last performance with Richard Wright. You won’t be disappointed. 😎
I love your reactions but I want to say something else about you now. You seem like just a wonderful human being. I’m 65 and have been a PF fan since the 70s. I enjoy watching younger folks discover this music. It truly is life changing. But it’s your approach to it that sets you apart. Bless you in your musical journey. Listen to everything they did!
Great reaction. Always good to see that real music can still matter. instrument(s) at the end are Baritone sax and then Tenor sax (when the tempo switches from 6/8 to half-speed 12/8). But with this sort of music it hardly matters what they are. With this music it just matters that it moves you.
This was the first PF track I ever heard back in the 1970s at school. It's good that people are still discovering PF but such a shame that they have to - it should be part of every school learning syllabus.
This is real music, NO autotune, NO faking it. Pink Floyd albums need to be listened to whole. Quite a few PF albums were laid down in quadraphonic, and if you had the system to play quad it was a different world. And of course always play loud.
you have opened the door .. early Genesis , Yes, ELP, Steely Dan , Santana and so much more, ' Each day as is always.. a look down life's hallways' Moody Blues
Great reaction. You've captured the essence of Pink Floyd very well in a short time! Listen to Dark Side of the Moon from start to finish...all the songs mesh into each other where some end and others begin without even knowing it - a complete musical journey experience.
Keep it coming my friend! Love your reactions bro! You have quickly come to the realization that Pink Floyd is not just music, but it is an experience. If I may, I would like to recommend sorrow from either the pulse concert, or the delicate sound of thunder tour. It must be one of the Live versions because the guitar solo will totally blow your mind! There is so much left for you to explore with Pink Floyd, and I’m here with you for the journey!
I will make sure to keep pushing these videos out ! 🤘 I’m super happy you’re enjoying them and I will definitely take your recommendation on what to listen to next. 🤘❤️ Thanks for the comment and sub! 🤘
Hi, Enjoying your Pink Floyd journey. "Pink Floyd The Wall The Movie" was the first movie I ever bought. After hearing the whole album start to finish, enjoy the movie. Considering how much you are enjoying Pink Floyd, I'd like to recommend another prog rock band that imho comes pretty close to their level, Marillion. Please try their "Neverland"-( live- 2004) If you enjoy that, then find "The Space..." (live at Royal Albert Hall) which includes a few 'friends from the orchestra'.
What a great reaction video to a Pink Floyd track! I agree, this one - no matter how many times I listen - gives me goose-bumps. I do have one 'unrelated' question though, could you tell me what type of mic you have in front of you? I love it, and would very much like to have one like it. Thank you for this information, in advance...and thank you for this reaction video.
First seeing them in 1971. And 5 times more over the years. Just got home from Vietnam and went with my buddies. Echos just came out. What a concert and all the rest of them. No other band comes close. They journey though you time itself. Seen a ton of bands from ten years after, james gang, canned heat, jefferson airlane but pf is the amazingly number one. By the way, i am old but won't tell my age. I still listen to them every single day among others
The first time i saw PF was in 68 at the Newcastle city hall i.was thirteen and Syd was on vocals and guitar, they did piper at the gates of dawn.The music just blew me away, never heard music like it.
great reaction, iv watched all of your pink floyd reactions and enjoyed them all, id highly recomend that you react to TIME or SORROW, id go with the live versions, im sure you will enjoy both aswell as many others, iv been a fan of pink floyd for over 50 years and the get more there lyrics become more and more relevant the older i get,
Saw them live twice in the 1970s as I grew up with them. Loads of suggestions but for now listen to parts 6 through 9. Wish you were here my favourite album of all time great stuff keep up the good work
They keep surprising me with how good every track is! This music isn’t of this world. I was thinking parts 6-9 was the next step if this video does really well. Thank you for your comment and thank you for sharing your experience with me.🤘
Hey Awesome reaction my Friend, this is one of the tunes to listen to laying back, low lights, phone OFF, headphones or ear buds on totally relaxed as I suggested before, matter of fact listening to the complete album from start to finish is the best of all, Glad to see you enjoying the Pink Floyd journey, the rabbit hole keeps leading you in the right direction my Friend, God Bless
Hey man, I would recommend you, for example, "time" or "hey you" . Everybody heard at least once "another brick in the wall" somewhere :D same as "money". Puh, there are a lot of other songs "have a cigar" "welcome to the machine" or the counterpart "Shine on you crazy diamond part 6 - 9" and so on 😅😅
Back in H.S., almost 40 years ago, I used to listen to The Wall album daily. Had the whole thing memorized. Still do for the most part. They're a sound scape.
Floyd is my favorite band. I was fortunate enough to have seen Floyd twice. Once in 1988 and once in 1995 for the Pulse tour. I had VIP floor seats and it was an experience I’ll never forget. The last instrument was a baritone saxophone and when the notes get higher he changes to an alto saxophone. My 22yo son can play it and it’s just awesome. David Gilmour is a legend. When he plays the guitar without lyrics, none are needed. He can make the guitar speak to your soul. I would definitely check out my favorite Floyd song, Comfortably Numb. But please check out the live version as others have suggested. Gilmour has 2 solos. First one is shorter than second. But the second is arguably the best guitar solo ever. Their first album, Piper at the Gates of Dawn is very different but is incredible in its own right. Especially Astronomy Domine and Interstellar Overdrive. Oh and a sort of funny catchy tune called Bike.
This song is all about one of Pink Floyd founding members in 1964, Syd Barrett and his demise. It's a story about his losing battle with LSD, other mind-altering drugs, and mental illness, that forced him to leave the band by 1968. Actually, the whole album the song is on, "Wish You Were Here", (1975), is about Syd Barrett. He's the one they're wishing were here. Even the title of the song refers to Syd, the acronym for "Shine On You Crazy Diamond" is SOYCD,.... the first, third, and fifth letters spell SYD. Barrett actually came up with the name of the band, Pink Floyd is/was a Blues based band just like virtually every other Rock band to come out of England in the 1960s. Barrett had recordings from many American Blues guitarists from the mid 1900, two of them especially stood out for him, they were,... ...... PINK Anderson, (1900 - 1974), and FLOYD Council, (1911 - 1976)
Something most people don't recognize about PF's music is the dynamics they employ in many songs. They know when to drop the level to fit the mood and when to go full pedal down. It makes things so interesting and pulls you in on a different plane.
Thanks for playing. You're right...Pink Floyd is an experience more than anything else. I saw them in concert many years ago. Wow! And, yes, you need good headphones for Pink Floyd. Check out 'Low Spark of High Heeled Boys' by Traffic.
Loving your reaction style. If you curious what to do next The Dark Side of the Moon has been on billboards top 100 since it's released in 1973. It's only 40 couple minutes long if you listen all the way through you can break a video up into a couple. It's definitely written as one piece meant to be listened to in one setting. Even if you don't tape it, I guarantee you won't regret it. Looking forward to your next video. Peace
And now: the same thing live at the Pulse concert including light show, visuals, video and Gilmore singing an playing hit in call and response with himself live!
Enjoyed watching your reaction. Try Echoes ‘Live from Pompeii’ , you should watch parts 1 & 2 together. This is the song/album where Pink Floyd found their formula.

And what are the chances, do you think, that ANY of the acts that kids are listening to will be around in 50 years?!?!? I don't THINK so!!!
You will enjoy the Pulse Concert LIVE version of Shine On You Crzy Diamond. It is a fantastic performance.
Pink Floyd is deeper than the Mariana trench, higher than any satellites orbiting earth, cooler than an iceberg in a river of liquid nitrogen, hotter than a solar flare of lava spouted from the sun, smoother than a quantum stabilized atom mirror, more Zen than 10,000 Buddhist monasteries, larger than what we know as our universe. Their music is an enigma that is beyond what we are capable of comprehending. There music is timeless.

I really liked that too! As Glenn commented, we actually get meaningful responses that way.
Well said
David Gilmour just hits the perfect note every time ,no flash just perfection ❤
All those bullshit hundred empty notes a second shredders should listen to how to touch the listeners soul. One carefully placed note means everything
When I played this album in 1979 my Nan told me it was beautiful music and said the lyrics must be about a friend who was (mad) very insightful lady. ps have been lucky enough to see them live 😂❤ Nan was born in 1902. Thanks for the reaction
Welcome to the Pink Floyd family. They were a totally unique band with their own unique sound. They will take you on an amazing journey.
Yes they will! This is my 4th Pink Floyd reaction and it just keeps on getting better and better! I can’t wait to discover more of their discography!🤘
Thank you for the comment and like on the video! I appreciate you and I hope to see you around here more often!
@@killbimu another epic song of theirs is "Echoes" (either album version, or live Pompei)

There will never be a band like them again, ever.
I'm 72, and this masterpiece shows that great music is timelss and transcend and speak to all generations as you've shown. Great reaction!
Hope you're doing well, sir. Shine On You Crazy Diamond 👍🏻

You asked for memories. 30 years ago, i drove home, 2 hours threw the forests in the middle of the night from hospital where my mother just had died. All the way, with the volume on top on the car stereo i played this. It give me so much strength from somewhere. Only a Pink Floyd song can do that in a moment like that.

S)nine on (Y)ou Crazy (D)iamond is Floyd's tribute to founding member, lead guitarist, main vocalist and songwriter Syd Barrett. In 1968, after achieving great success in the psychedelic/pop genre, Syd suffered a complete psychological breakdown (due to a combination of undiagnosed schizophrenia, way too much LSD, and intense pressure from the record company) and had to leave the band. That's when David Gilmour (who was a childhood chum of Syd's) stepped in to replace him. Unfortunately he never recovered and spent his remaining years as a recluse. However, not so coincidentally, he showed up unannounced and unrecognizable at the studio during the recording of this album (1974) It was a very traumatic event for the remaining members, to say the least.
I have absolutely loved this song even as a teen but when I learned the meaning of the song itself became the moment that I cry everytime that I hear it now.
Now I see you start to understand that Pink Floyd is not simple music but a complete trip in your head!
The Floyd are from another dimension the greatest 👌🏻👍🏻🏴
You said your ears never smile like this before, but you didn’t say that your soul felt warm and fuzzy. This very old metal rock head loves seeing new generations find these experiences discovering Pink Floyd it makes my soul warm and comfortably numb! God Bless Rock On Stay Safe!🙏👍🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
I used to play this at bedtime when I was a teen to help me relax enough to sleep. So perfectly relaxing. 😌
I still do this at 46 lmao
Thanks, Floyd! PF is not an "easy" listen.. takes incredible patience to hear it develop.. and this one is so much about Syd Barrett.. as even many other songs are.. he's the "missing" piece that was a key to their start... a total "Crazy Diamond".. (I also like having heard that David G. took care of Syd, after his leaving the band..making sure he got royalties, etc.. ) I appreciate your listen...
The album opens with 'Shine ON' PARTS 1-5.....BUT ENDS WITH PARTS 6-9 WHICH I LIKE EVEN MORE.
Parts 6-9 are some of my favorite Floyd sounds ever…..That and Echoes.
Hard to pick a favourite but the fade back in on part 6 always has the hairs standing up on my arms.
@@w.geoffreyspaulding6588I always go to the studio version of echoes. It’s so pure.
Floyd! We used to catch a buzz, and lay on the floor between the speakers with the music just blasting! Floyd takes you to another place 😉 Enjoy!
Pink Floyd takes you on a journey with each album. It's very much a matter of just closing the eyes and letting the sound wash over you. And the music never gets old. I've been listening to them for decades and still love the music every bit as much as the first time.
A number of years ago my wife and I visited Mauthusen, a WWII death camp near Vienna, this was deeply moving.. when I returned to Canada I took the photos and videos and set them to “Welcome to Machine” it suited the subject matter well.
You must do a double reaction next.
Studio version first of the great gig in the sky, followed by the pulse concert version.
This will leave you absolutely speechless, and I'm looking forward to it.
Saw them do this in 1977 on their Wish You Were Here/ Animals tour. Absolutely one of the best shows I’ve seen. I could rave on but the music speaks for itself
I LOVE Pink Floyd and have ever since I first listened to them many, MANY years ago!!!!!!
Nothing like goosebumps.
I've been saying for years that Pink Floyd's is an experience!
Subscribed to join you on your Pink Floyd journey. I was at the Pulse concert Earl's Court 1994. Best concert I have ever been to
Me too. Same.
100 years from now, people will be reacting in the same way
Just brilliant!
Lead in is Richard Wright on the keyboard ! lol
Looks like you're figuring out that Pink Floyd don't simply plug into their equipment - they plug directly into you mind and soul. We have been listening to this incredible music for fifty years. Even though we can never hear it again for the first time, watching you listening for the very first time is nearly as good. As you get deeper into PF, you'll need to watch more P.U.L.S.E. live performances of these tracks - fasten your seatbelt for them to avoid injury. Enjoy.
It's a saxophone. And YES on Part 2 (VI- IX)- it's even better than what you've heard. And yes, I sub'd about 5 tunes ago. Peace, love and bellbottoms from Canada
So many Pink Floyd songs slowly draw you in with their long intros. There's never a hurry to get into the music.
The intro IS the music.
I love your appreciation of Pink Floyd. They have been a huge part of my life since their first album. (Of course, they became a spiritual experience for me with a little help from LSD.)
What a brilliant idea to use subtitles for the comments so as to not interrupt the music and allow it to play without pausing. There is nothing more frustrating when beautiful music is constantly being paused and talked over. Shine on you crazy diamond is so amazing. I have listened to it so many times over the years, and yet it still gives me goosebumps each and every time. The comment that it is not just music but an experience is the best way to sum up Pink Floyd they take you away to another place on a sonic journey. Nobody even comes close to their brilliance as musicians. Gilmour has great vocals, but he sings more eloquently through his guitar transcending mere words.
Saw them in concert sat main floor next to the computer banks. As they programmed in the laser show could look up to see it, was amazed how they tied to the music.
What an amazing song and outstanding music. Way PF manages their music including lyrics, instruments, I don’t think no name has even come slide to them
First time I listened to this was in Astronomy class my senior year of high school. Our school has a planetarium and our teacher let us bring i music to listen to at the beginning of clas. One song, then on to lessons. This was 1989 and we had Dolby 5.1 which was a big deal back then. Kid brings in this album not telling the teacher it's a 13-minute song, hits "play." Lights go down, stars light up, and I had what I can only describe as an out-of-body experience. Like being on a trip without drugs. Been hooked on this drug ever since. Withdrawals can be easily solved by more Floyd.
From the live Pulse Concert, please check out SORROW and also RUN LIKE HELL.
SO HAPPY that you chose the studio version - so as not to be distracted by video - or miss the parts that don't get played live.
As for better headphones....if you can afford a hundred, there's no better choice than Sennheiser HD 280 PRO. They are a studio reference headphone that I've come to love after trying 30 different pairs through the years. They are TRUELY flat response, which means you are hearing what was meant to be heard.
Watching this Live, was awe inspiring. Syd Barrett will always be.....🔷️ "DIAMOND" 1-9 is a MUST! Its not over.
I'm a 68. Year old pink Floyd fan. I had the honor of seeing Floyd at the pulse concert Oct 20th 1994 at earls court London England while in the navy. The tour was a division bell tour. This is the concert everyone reacts to. Floyd took my soul injected pure music and gave it back to me. Please react to great gig in the sky pulse concert. It will blow your mind
The original album version is the best 👑
@@lesblatnyak5947you're allowed to have your subjective oppinion, but for me the consert was better because they dared themselves to play with the songs and give them a new and wider expression.
Buuuuuut, that's my subjective oppinion that you're allowed to disagree to
@stigandrmyrardalur5208 Thanks for your permission 👍
Bro, love ur reactions to Floyd it makes me laugh and smile with the captions you post regarding the emotions on yoyr face. “Time” is the next song and natural progression in the rabbit hole but don’t want to screw with you listening to the Dark Side of the Moon in its entirety in one session ending with “Eclipse”. You should consider doing a reaction to the entire album in one vid with no pauses. Life changing. Also do the same with The Wall. Would be an epic reaction. Another single to consider reacting to is “Mother”. It’s so unique and brilliant and shows the incredible range of Pink Floyd.
I know everyone likes to pulse concert, but several years earlier there was the “ delicate sound of Thunder” Tour, this concert was filmed in 35 mm and put out on DVD. I like that performance a little better than the pulse concert
Great reaction! I enjoyed reading your comments as the music played. This is the GOAT trilogy from Pink Floyd. Dark Side, Wish You Were Here and Animals. Bookend them with Echoes and Comfortably Numb. All classics and Masterpieces.
I got this album at age 15, 1977. Used to take my stereo system to high school, and crank albums during (outdoor) lunch. Lol.
I highy recommend listening to these albums in song order. They each are a journey.
Great reactions! I saw the pulse concert in 94. Lose the ear buds and get some headphones! Sorrow pulse tour and echoes last performance with Richard Wright. You won’t be disappointed. 😎
I love your reactions but I want to say something else about you now. You seem like just a wonderful human being. I’m 65 and have been a PF fan since the 70s. I enjoy watching younger folks discover this music. It truly is life changing. But it’s your approach to it that sets you apart. Bless you in your musical journey. Listen to everything they did!
Knowing the meaning of this song makes it even more amazing.
Great reaction. Always good to see that real music can still matter. instrument(s) at the end are Baritone sax and then Tenor sax (when the tempo switches from 6/8 to half-speed 12/8). But with this sort of music it hardly matters what they are. With this music it just matters that it moves you.
This was the first PF track I ever heard back in the 1970s at school. It's good that people are still discovering PF but such a shame that they have to - it should be part of every school learning syllabus.
Ditto.
Perfection. It does not get better. My fav band for the last 55 years since I first heard them in my early teens. It's fing magic!
Yea man is all i can say! Your reactions are soooo precious, thanks so much
This is real music, NO autotune, NO faking it. Pink Floyd albums need to be listened to whole. Quite a few PF albums were laid down in quadraphonic, and if you had the system to play quad it was a different world. And of course always play loud.
I was at the Pulse Concert in 1994. It was the greatest thing I've ever witnessed.
You're really going to want to check out "Pink Floyd: Live At Pompeii ", the 1971 full version, parts 1 & 2. Guaranteed to blow your mind!
you have opened the door .. early Genesis , Yes, ELP, Steely Dan , Santana and so much more, ' Each day as is always.. a look down life's hallways' Moody Blues
Great reaction. You've captured the essence of Pink Floyd very well in a short time!
Listen to Dark Side of the Moon from start to finish...all the songs mesh into each other where some end and others begin without even knowing it - a complete musical journey experience.
Keep it coming my friend! Love your reactions bro! You have quickly come to the realization that Pink Floyd is not just music, but it is an experience. If I may, I would like to recommend sorrow from either the pulse concert, or the delicate sound of thunder tour. It must be one of the Live versions because the guitar solo will totally blow your mind! There is so much left for you to explore with Pink Floyd, and I’m here with you for the journey!
I will make sure to keep pushing these videos out ! 🤘 I’m super happy you’re enjoying them and I will definitely take your recommendation on what to listen to next. 🤘❤️
Thanks for the comment and sub! 🤘
Hi, Enjoying your Pink Floyd journey. "Pink Floyd The Wall The Movie" was the first movie I ever bought. After hearing the whole album start to finish, enjoy the movie. Considering how much you are enjoying Pink Floyd, I'd like to recommend another prog rock band that imho comes pretty close to their level, Marillion. Please try their "Neverland"-( live- 2004) If you enjoy that, then find "The Space..." (live at Royal Albert Hall) which includes a few 'friends from the orchestra'.
I hope everyone is enjoying the journey.
Literally one of the greatest songs ever recorded
Good to have you come back through that wormhole. PF is a cerebral orgasm.
You’re doing great.
Strap in for Dogs from the Animals album.
What a great reaction video to a Pink Floyd track! I agree, this one - no matter how many times I listen - gives me goose-bumps. I do have one 'unrelated' question though, could you tell me what type of mic you have in front of you? I love it, and would very much like to have one like it. Thank you for this information, in advance...and thank you for this reaction video.
I gotchu! My microphone is a Hyper X Quadcast S!
Also, thank you for watching and loving the video! I appreciate your time watching and commenting!❤️🤘🔥
First seeing them in 1971. And 5 times more over the years. Just got home from Vietnam and went with my buddies. Echos just came out. What a concert and all the rest of them. No other band comes close. They journey though you time itself. Seen a ton of bands from ten years after, james gang, canned heat, jefferson airlane but pf is the amazingly number one. By the way, i am old but won't tell my age. I still listen to them every single day among others
The first time i saw PF was in 68 at the Newcastle city hall i.was thirteen and Syd was on vocals and guitar, they did piper at the gates of dawn.The music just blew me away, never heard music like it.
great reaction, iv watched all of your pink floyd reactions and enjoyed
them all, id highly recomend that you react to TIME or SORROW, id go
with the live versions, im sure you will enjoy both aswell as many others,
iv been a fan of pink floyd for over 50 years and the get more there lyrics
become more and more relevant the older i get,
David Gilmour is the greatest slow hand guitarist. Many listens with a good bud who passed much too soon. 🙏🎶
Saw them live twice in the 1970s as I grew up with them. Loads of suggestions but for now listen to parts 6 through 9. Wish you were here my favourite album of all time great stuff keep up the good work
They keep surprising me with how good every track is! This music isn’t of this world. I was thinking parts 6-9 was the next step if this video does really well. Thank you for your comment and thank you for sharing your experience with me.🤘
Hey Awesome reaction my Friend, this is one of the tunes to listen to laying back, low lights, phone OFF, headphones or ear buds on totally relaxed as I suggested before, matter of fact listening to the complete album from start to finish is the best of all, Glad to see you enjoying the Pink Floyd journey, the rabbit hole keeps leading you in the right direction my Friend, God Bless
You don't listen to Pink Floyd as much as you experience them. They create a soundscape in your mind !
You not only listen to Pink Floyd, you feel it,enjoy your journey!
Hey man, I would recommend you, for example, "time" or "hey you" .
Everybody heard at least once "another brick in the wall" somewhere :D same as "money".
Puh, there are a lot of other songs "have a cigar" "welcome to the machine" or the counterpart "Shine on you crazy diamond part 6 - 9" and so on 😅😅
Lots of good music that I still need to discover! I appreciate the suggestions on what to do next, and I’ll be sure to check them out!🤘
@killbimu nice, bro! I'm looking forward, for the reactions ✌️
Apart from their obvious amazing song writing ability and skill...how about that studio production from 1975, so impressive.
Back in H.S., almost 40 years ago, I used to listen to The Wall album daily. Had the whole thing memorized. Still do for the most part. They're a sound scape.
Floyd is my favorite band. I was fortunate enough to have seen Floyd twice. Once in 1988 and once in 1995 for the Pulse tour. I had VIP floor seats and it was an experience I’ll never forget. The last instrument was a baritone saxophone and when the notes get higher he changes to an alto saxophone. My 22yo son can play it and it’s just awesome. David Gilmour is a legend. When he plays the guitar without lyrics, none are needed. He can make the guitar speak to your soul. I would definitely check out my favorite Floyd song, Comfortably Numb. But please check out the live version as others have suggested. Gilmour has 2 solos. First one is shorter than second. But the second is arguably the best guitar solo ever.
Their first album, Piper at the Gates of Dawn is very different but is incredible in its own right. Especially Astronomy Domine and Interstellar Overdrive. Oh and a sort of funny catchy tune called Bike.
welcome to the world of the eargasm
Towards the end, the sax solo, the switch from baritone sax to a tenor sax was brilliant.
Dick Parry is a saxophone monster! To watch him swing them around to switch in his live performances is incredible!
This song is all about one of Pink Floyd founding members in 1964, Syd Barrett and his demise. It's a story about his losing battle with LSD, other mind-altering drugs, and mental illness, that forced him to leave the band by 1968.
Actually, the whole album the song is on, "Wish You Were Here", (1975), is about Syd Barrett. He's the one they're wishing were here.
Even the title of the song refers to Syd, the acronym for "Shine On You Crazy Diamond" is SOYCD,.... the first, third, and fifth letters spell SYD.
Barrett actually came up with the name of the band, Pink Floyd is/was a Blues based band just like virtually every other Rock band to come out of England in the 1960s. Barrett had recordings from many American Blues guitarists from the mid 1900, two of them especially stood out for him, they were,...
...... PINK Anderson, (1900 - 1974), and FLOYD Council, (1911 - 1976)
Something most people don't recognize about PF's music is the dynamics they employ in many songs. They know when to drop the level to fit the mood and when to go full pedal down. It makes things so interesting and pulls you in on a different plane.
Thanks for posting, Groovy reaction
Richard Wright's textured & layered keyboards are so atmospheric & are such an important part of Pink Floyd's sound.
Thanks for playing. You're right...Pink Floyd is an experience more than anything else. I saw them in concert many years ago. Wow! And, yes, you need good headphones for Pink Floyd. Check out 'Low Spark of High Heeled Boys' by Traffic.
Echoes Live at Pompeii 1971 Parts 1 and 2 is a must.
Loving your reaction style. If you curious what to do next The Dark Side of the Moon has been on billboards top 100 since it's released in 1973. It's only 40 couple minutes long if you listen all the way through you can break a video up into a couple. It's definitely written as one piece meant to be listened to in one setting. Even if you don't tape it, I guarantee you won't regret it. Looking forward to your next video. Peace
The name Pink Floyd comes from the given names of two prominent blues musicians, who Syd Barrett loved: Pink Anderson and Floyd Council.
I love comments like these that give me additional info on the band. Thank you for your insight and I appreciate you here today!
Seen them in phila in the 70s Animals album. Awesome.
I’m 65 and have been listening to this since it came out, still get goosebumps
Been listening to this album since I was ten years old and 40 something years later, it never gets old.
And now: the same thing live at the Pulse concert including light show, visuals, video and Gilmore singing an playing hit in call and response with himself live!
Enjoyed watching your reaction.
Try Echoes ‘Live from Pompeii’ , you should watch parts 1 & 2 together. This is the song/album where Pink Floyd found their formula.
You've fallen into the Pink Floyd rabbit hole. Expect never to escape.
Im 68 and came of age listening to PF. Parts 6-9 is even better!
