A held note from Roger Waters being crossfaded into the same note on a synthesizer.. This is crazy for 1977!! I'm blown away. LOL.. I'm a 36 yr old black man who clearly missed out on one of the best rock groups EVER!!!
Just enjoy playing catch up.......a lot of people get into Floyd late in their lives and regret not being there sooner......👍
Brandon Kelly Perfectly said. Sometimes we’re just not open to appreciate it at certain points in our lives. Then one day it just triggers something inside you and you want more and more. These lyrics are so relevant to this day...that’s the significant beauty of it. Pink Floyd’s albums like Dark Side of The Moon, Wish You Were Here, Animals, The Wall ...even Final Cut all transcend being just a musical interlude. The lyrics from Roger Waters are deep, emotional, and moving. I wish you well on your journey...enjoy and savour every minute of it!
Brandon I bought this album when it first came out. I was 13 years old. That vocal->synth pass was absolutely ahead of its time. Thank God for Pink Floyd.
Not too late
My friend, great music knows no bounds of colour or creed. Enjoy your "Floyd" journey 👍
This song means more now than it did when it was released 45 years ago.
One of the greatest songs ever.
The sheep have short term memory, they are idiots that may have doomed us all.
That intro by Rick is so serene for the madness to follow
A good musical picture of sheep hopelessly passing their time in the grassland away, only dimly aware of a certain unease in the air.
The intro with the keyboard is every kids theme song, all happy and oblivious to whats going on around them, and once rogers singing starts boom, reality kicks in. It ain't all cherries and rainbows anymore but evil and cruelty
"Sheep" by Pink Floyd is just an incredible piece of music.
People forget Nick Masons amazing drum work !
10/10 A +
The entire LP is pure genius.
@@graemecouch5010 Yes indeed, Nick's playing is just amazing. Not forgetting Richard Wright's fabulous keyboard playing & Dave Gilmours guitar playing is just so phenomenally good too!!
@@graemecouch5010 Not me
I play this over and over and over and it just never gets old. It's genius.
It messed me up when I was 16 hahahaha cheers sister
Genius is right
Really is. The genuis of Roger Waters.
@@tomyum6163mmmmmm
Mmmmmmmmmmmm
The beginning of Sheep is the culmination of the sound that defined Pink Floyd
I adore it when Gilmour plays angry.....his most stellar playing.
One of these Days... what a ride
If I'm not wrong, Roger played guitar on this one
That solo at the end is amazing !
That solo is the best moment of the 70's musical era.
Best guitar riff ever at the end 🎸
@@treadstone1970 Definately !
It sure is. Trivia: I had assumed it was Gilmour doing all the guitars but it says Roger Waters played the rhythm guitar so it might be him or both of them in the ending section en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sheep_(Pink_Floyd_song)#Personnel ... also says Gilmour played the bass
It's because Rick Wright was behind all that moment. The atmosphere created with the keyboards and synthesizers enhances the guitar riff.
Rick Wright’s best work, IMO. RIP Rick Wright.
He allegedly didn't like the album. Strange.
@@musashi-san____1409 even david doesn't like this album very much, this album was probably the start of the waters domination so it doesn't surprise me that both David and Rick don't like it
@@deeptenduganguly8530 The album has aged very well. It's a masterpiece IMO. Waters did a great job.
@@musashi-san____1409 yeah its a great album,the last great PF album for me, waters is a genius, but he was a cunt as well
The reason Rick and Dave probably didn't like this too much is not only as someone says that it marked the beginning of Waters taking over with his own agenda, but the fact that it's so political. I think they're great works, with both fantastic music as well as a message which is as important to heed as ever, but I can understand where they're coming from, both of them are much more about music for its own sake.
This whole album is a masterpiece!!!!
This was the first Pink Floyd album I was exposed to. Older boys played it for me thinking I wouldn't get it. I sat mesmerized. Telling them the meanings as we went along. They dug that I got it. Such emotional release when listening alone. At 59 years of age I still discover new sounds and meanings I missed before. Animals is highly under-rated. Has even more meaning today.
Probably the best track in the album. Near perfection, love it
Easily one of their most underrated songs. The keyboard intro is absolute killer!
Dont forget Dogs !
@@graemecouch5010 It's okay, I find it a bit grim: I enjoy Sheep and Pigs better than Dogs lol
Perfect album. Every track is a gem
All of you get it. Love you all. Thanks.
favorite Floyd song of all time! The way Rogers note blends in with the instruments is BRILLIANT! Sends shivers down my spine!!!
I love it. I'm still jamming this tonight. 40 plus years later. Why not.
This song was a warning to the future. It went unheeded.
Possibly my favorite Floyd song of all. Cheers y'all.
Poker nights 40+ years ago, drinking, playing music, friend always wanting to monopolize the stereo with 'The Who'. I'd eventually convince playing Pink Floyd Animals. Great music, poker or not. Sit still and listen to genius. Then go back for Dark Side of the Moon and Meddle.
It's mad as fuck that 45 years later ~ When I look out my window into the world, this album is still literally fucking happening! It's insane... Baaaaa🐑
That far echo in the song of the word "stone! stone! stone..." at the minute 04:07 is in the same exact point of the other echo "stone! stone! stone..." of the song Dogs in other side if you flip the vinyl.
8:06 BEST INSTRUMENTAL EVER!!!!
I get a chill up my spine every time I hear it. When it jumps in there are no words to describe it. Pure sonic ecstasy!
Their best outro
Such a great riff
@@kevinfleming7038 Well said mate.
@@Regreviews echoes is the best outro of all time
Thanks to my older brother for introducing this to me back then 🌼
The start makes me so relaxed when I listen to it everytime
The time for classics like this is long gone. Pity.
All things must pass. But energy never dies only changes form and returns once more :) we’ll see more great music like this again and again as long as there is the medium (us) to make it. Different in its variations as always.
@@zacherychase5449 true- it’ll take a few years, once this fourth turning is done..
And Roger Waters is still performing this live
To this day, 45 years after I first heard it, Sheep remains my #1 favourite song.
I seen Pink Floyd, Cleveland OH 25 June 1977 on the Animals tour... Just amazing!!
I’m 64 and just SO happy that I got to live with the crew for most of my adult life… THANK YOU RW, DG, NM and RW… and Jon Carron, Snowy White, and Dave Kilminster… last seen at the AA Arena in September 2022… amazing show which I hope is here soon… 200’ video screens, superb sound and Ann AWESOME event ❤ [1st seen in 1974 @ Wembley Arena for DSOTM❤}
Now I'm old. And cranking the shit out of this.
Meek and obedient, you follow the leader down well-trodden corridors into the valley of steel....
Only the scared and evil do not trust that God cares for them. Satan offered Him his principalities . Without Yeshua, the only god in this life is Satan, but he will deny it. He hates you.
What a surprise
The look of terminal shock in your eyes
Now things are really what they seem
No, this is no bad dream
The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not want
He makes me down to lie
Through pastures green He leadeth me the silent waters by
With bright knives he releaseth my soul
He maketh me to hang on hooks in high places
He converteth me to lamb cutlets.
@@scottmurdock01z down to lie?
Satan is the one you are talking about. God shed His blood to be the once and for all sacrifice for YOUR transgression and inability to fullfill.Jewish law. It is the GIFT of God. Grace is undeserving favor. Simply humbling yourself before God gets you that undeserved favor, which is Grace. Satan hates you. Satan wants you to burn with him. In the END. Yeshua wants to release you from the grip of confusion that the god of this world has. He wants you to have eternal peace and JOY in the Holy Spirit. Catholicism is a pagan legalistic perversion of the new Jewish covenant.
@@PeterKKraus Shut up with your stories.
One of their finest. Keyboards & rock guitar are simply sublime. Great lyric, so much to mention, so little time.
Greatest rock outro ever, a sonic assault.
During the song, I imagine sheep jumping through hoops trying to get away from dogs as pigs laugh.
Animals is my favorite album. Love everything on it. Such assembled talent is very rare.
A open fire place,a gless of merlot,a cigar,what more can one ask fore?
" Honestly, these edibles are weak."
5:32 roll's around ...
David's guitar is about a a decade and a half ahead of its time..I hear early 90s John frusciante riffs at the end...this is my favorite floyd song ...its just a masterpiece
Other way around. You here Gilmour riffs in Fruciantes playing. Both epic string benders
Never as commercial as The Wall. In my opinion Animals is far superior!
Epic!
This, Piper and Meddle.
Absolutely!
That might be pushing it a stretch, but it's safe to say that this album, and this song in particular, was the culmination of the sound that absolutely defined Pink Floyd.
@@Julius_Paul Not a stretch at all. Animals is a masterpiece in the same category as The Dark Side of the Moon. The combination of the powerful lyrics with the calming music makes it epic and the greatest album ever made in my opinion
no words can describe this.
BIBLICAL
The best 10 minutes my ears have ever been indulged with.
Might I then suggest Led Zeppelin's "Achilles' Last Stand"?
Try Third Eye by TOOL, I’m telling you, you won’t regret it. 🤘🤘
The only Pink Floyd concert I got to see. Old Municipal Stadium in Cleveland during "The World Series of Rock" in June of 1977. The estimated attendance was 80,000. The flyover by their jet then they opened with this. It was kind of...trippy when sheep parachutes came down! They did the entire Animals album, took a break and finished with the entire Dark Side of the Moon album. Guess who had to drive 7 of us home in a 1966 Chevrolet Biscayne? :) If you look at pictures of these concerts you will see how Cleveland got considered as a city for the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. That said, I totally understand anyone who thinks Detroit should have been chosen.
Very lucky. I only got to see them without Gilmour in the 90's. They did not play Sheep, only Dogs. I did get to see Gilmour solo tho.
Wow what an amazing story! History!!
Same here, the only live show of theirs, and it was at Veterans Memorial Coliseum in Phoenix My friend got the tickets, and they were literally the very last row opposite the stage, up in the rafters. He got them there on purpose because he wanted to take in the whole spectacle of the band, the audience, and the various floating objects. It didn't disappoint. And I have a very vivid memory of the end of sheep when David is just drilling away on that solo, and all of the white lights surrounding Mr screen turned on him and he was lit up so brightly that you almost couldn't see him from the reflection of light. A splendid time was had by all even if Mr kite wasn't topping the bill that night
I'm from Cleveland, and attendance was 87,000 plus change. Largest attendance for a concert featuring one band in America.
A musical trip
I saw Pink Floyd perform this live at the Olympic Stadium in Montreal for the "In the Flesh"tour in 1977 and that my friends is a core memory...Oh and did I say it was also my first time trying LSD?Well it was........😊
Happy Birthday, Richard Wright. This intro to Sheep is magnificent. Thank you for your music.
Probably one of the greatest songs ever written. In my opinion
We have arrived in the dystopian future.
I didnt like this in the 80s but now i realise its a masterpiece !
I actually hated Animals in the 80s too but now I think it's one of their best albums.
Better late than never!
Pink Floyd is more like classical music than rock and roll. I call it the thinking man's rock and roll.
So appropriate now more than ever. I must admit Waters' cover in his 2022 tour is quite an audio-visual spectacle.
WONDERFUL masterpiece and analogy of how we are treated and lead like sheep by the Establishment and Bosses and Governments! Roger Waters was and is a genius :-) Love also The Lord's Prayer in the middle!
The oppressor here is not a government it's the unfeeling army of carnivores.
@MYK232- No dingy. The only thing that's oppressing you is your ignorance. What's your contribution to your government, complaints and whining?
Never more relevant that in our times 😢
Maybe the best song of the Floyd, everything is pure magic here.
Watched a Roger Waters concert last week and since then I have listened to this song at least 10 times. My favorites were Pigs and Dog but I guess for 2022 it's the year of the Sheep in all respect.
this very well may be the most "ahead of it's time" music track ever released
Watched it live on Water's tour---surreal video and biting lyrics---the man is a genius.
Wees geen schaap,luister naar pink floyd.
This is a masterpiece
People make weird comparisons between Pink Floyd and King Crimson, Zappa, Yes. As if to say Floyd are inferior. But none of those bands reached the emotional revelation and structure of Floyd. This song exemplifies that for me, amongst others.
Masterpiece.... 👍
Imagine clicking thumbs down on Sheep.
Arguably the greatest song ever! Roger's brilliant lyrics, his passionate rousing uplifting voice and his thrashing guitar playing [according to the wikipedia page]. And yes the others did great stuff on this too to make oh so very awesome.
Ah, ya! The thrashing guitar would have to be Roger, he's got the piss and vinegar! 😂 Dave's too chill.
On Animals, Roger played bass on "Dogs" and I played bass on "Sheep" and "Pigs." For a couple of years, most of the bassline on "Sheep" was played by Roger in concert, when it was still "Raving and Drooling." Anyway, in the studio Roger wanted to play the rhythm part of the guitar, so we switched roles.
David Gilmour 1998, "Bass Player."
'Have you heard the news? The dogs are dead!'
Who else - except me - can't get those lines out of their head?
My very favorite Pink Floyd album.
For various reasons...
same
Rick Wright produced some incredible chords in this breakdown!
Particularly the chord at the 2:11 mark. Aside from the beginning of the song being one of my all-time favorite intros in modern music, the chord at 2:11 is the single moment of euphoric sound that affects me greatly.
This song should be prominent on the coming 2022 Roger Waters' US tour.
Yes another "Pink Floyd classic "
Time to wake up all the sheep puppets!!!!!!!!!!
That intro just gives me so many Nintendo vibes xD
My adolscienza, grazie Pink Floyd
I love everything Pink Floyd!!!♥♥♥♥
That bass tho!!
Harmlessly passing your time in the grassland away
Only dimly aware of a certain unease in the air
You better watch out,
There may be dogs about
I've looked over Jordan, and I have seen
Things are not what they seem
What do you get for pretending the danger's not real
Meek and obedient you follow the leader
Down well trodden corridors into the valley of steel
What a surprise!
A look of terminal shock in your eyes
Now things are really what they seem
No, this is no bad dream
The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not want
He makes me down to lie
Through pastures green He leadeth me the silent waters by
With bright knives He releaseth my soul
He maketh me to hang on hooks in high places
He converteth me to lamb cutlets,
For lo, He hath great power, and great hunger
When cometh the day we lowly ones,
Through quiet reflection, and great dedication
Master the art of karate,
Lo, we shall rise up,
And then we'll make the bugger's eyes water
Bleating and babbling we fell on his neck with a scream
Wave upon wave of demented avengers
March cheerfully out of obscurity into the dream
Have you heard the news?
The dogs are dead
You better stay home
And do as you're told
Get out of the road if you want to grow old
Very disturbing. Recommiting my vow to vegetarianism.
When I hear today's music , I would love to travel back in time and go back to 1977 to discover this wonderful record when it was released ...
Meek and obedient you follow the leader
Down well trodden corridors into the valley of steel
What a surprise
A look of terminal shock in your eyes
Now things are really what they seem
No, this is no bad dream.
Hits hard in 2023 yet it was 1977.
Wondering y haven't listened to this during the covid19..Lord knows I'm living on Pink Floyd these last 6 months
Been a fan of this song since being 12 years old and buying a copy of it at the local record shop in 1978. Was electrified from the very first time I heard' Gilmour's guitar lead @8:07. And a timeless song too - everytime I see an idiot double-masked or wearing a mask while driving a car alone, this song invariably comes to mind.
I 100% relate to that last bit
Oh boy you will shit your pants when you learn what the song is actually about
Yeah I saw a bunch of idiots not wearing masks at the height of the pandemic. They were so sheep like that they were taking advice from a reality show buffoon who instructed them to inject bleach into their veins. Talk about your sheep!
what a piece of legend!
Listening to this album in the eve of the American election of 2020 has suddenly opened up and blew my mind. It has never held so true for me as in this moment. Genius album.
Amazing how it is so applicable now !
@@jonfairway8235 "..you better stay home and do what you're told..."
@@FrankJSelkeIV Well never done that all my life... so not sure I will be doing that these days it either... You seem to be lacking any history or channels...
@@jonfairway8235 i'm quoting the song, don't read too much into it
I fuckin know right. Same exact shit right wingers always say to anyone peacefully protesting with a different opinion than them. And I mean actual peaceful protests, not the conservative sort with smearing shit on the walls and militias being charged with actual sedition.
RIP Rick Wright. He was integral in putting this song together
Make time my brothers,your welcome at the church any time.the Church of Pink Floyd is within all of us so even if you hum a few bars every now and then you still practicing faithfully. for you see these gems are like beautiful hymns they are dark yet very uplifting.
"That's what you get for pretending the danger's not real..."
Pink Floyd, what a legacy! Love of my life
Best outro ever!
Para mi los riffs de Gilmour en esta rola son una cosa grandiosa... 🤩
Pink floyd tracks ,, always make the mind wander 🤯
I say their music untethers and expands minds.
Saw the Animals concert at the University of Houston football stadium during a tremendous thunderstorm. The pig didn't fly that night... great concert though. The huge racks of Crown DC-300 power amplifiers got a cleaning and a real workout that stormy night.
The first time I heard this I was young. It fucked me up forever. And here I am
Essa música é simplesmente espetacular. Desde a introdução até o final. Só poderia ser Pink Floyd...
Beautiful + singing bird ♥
I'm high and this totally rocks on headphones 🎧
A song that stands the test of time. Bar none.
È una figata, grazie Pink Floid
An almost perfect picture.
The album had two tracks on side one and three tracks on side two.
The photograph shows a vinyl with four tracks.
it says:
Side 2.
Pigs (Three different ones)
Sheep
Pigs on the wind 2.
this album is not earthly. one of the best relics of humanity so far IMHO
Brilliant album. And a reflection on what was going on in the mid 70s
Great song, I love this album. Thanks for the upload.
Dave just fucking makes the Strat sing on this too
Timeless
The best part of the song 7:46. I still have goosebumps!!
incredible top of crazy soul music
Fantastic on its release, fantastic today....
Von meiner Kritik her aus Prog sicht der beste Song von Floyd überhaupt. Das kurz bombast Solo Stelle bei 5 min wo alle auf einen Punkt spielen mehr als perfekt. Erinnert mich immer stark an Genesis Anfang der 70er wo es Progte was das Zeug hielt. Glanz Zeit. Und ich in den 90ern es im vierer mit meiner Band damals Gong two verlängert einspielte sogar live.
Wallenstein - Mother Universe (1972)

Wallenstein were a German (krautrock) prog rock band...
I wish I could have a never ending loop of 1:34
