When the kid is going through the drawer of his Dad's belongings, yes it's a song that isn't on the album version. It's called 'When The Tigers Break Free.' It's now on an album called 'The Final Cut.' However as far as I know, it's only on the CD version, it's not on the original vinyl.
It should never have been inserted in The Final Cut. Totally kills the flow and the brilliant transition between the songs it was spliced into on the original album
My Dad worked for a company that supplied the equipment (cameras etc...) for making the film. He took me to Pinewood Studios to watch the SFX shot of the Wall being blown up. Just my luck the shot did not work that day. But as a thank you my Dad got the bands autographs on PF headed paper plus a necklace holding a silver brick.
@@DazzleMonroe But please, keep Tommy on the original Album, I can't stand the move version of the songs. As much as I love Tina and Elton, I can't stand their version. Pinball Wizard and the Acid Queen are best on the studio album.
The film contains the outtake "What Shall We Do Now?" (different from Empty Spaces, which is actually the reprise of that song), and the new track "When the Tigers Broke Free", not to mention "Hey You" is missing.
@@NocturneVideos It's in the deleted scenes on the DVD. I think it was rightfully removed because it would have slowed the movie down too much at that point.

I have not watched this movie in years. I did see it in the theaters when it was first released. I found a VHS tape of The Wall performed before the Berlin Wall.
I mean I saw the movie as a kid before I knew the band, so for me it was all one piece of media. The concept itself of the film not being worthy of the album is something completely alien to me.
You should check out (even if it's in your free time), Roger Water's original The Wall demo. He recorded what would become the wall by himself. It's very emotionally scattered and disturbing. yet MUCH of it made it into the album. Although he originally intended 3 parts of the song "Is There Anybody Out There (pt 1-3)", A totally different version of "Run Like Hell" with different music.
The best version is the live version. Try to get your hands on 'Is there anybody out there?' a double CD of the 1980's live shows. It's absolutely brilliant. Extended solo on Mother, additional instrumental parts.
The Wall was always intended to be an album, a live show and a movie. But you are right. One should not watch the movie before one has a clear and complete mental image of what the album means
Every time I watch it I get new particulars: the face in The Trial has "a look in your eye like black holes in the sky" and the animation zooms inside the dark eye. That's clearly the late Syd
when the album came out roger waters said in an interview that the wall was actually the soundtrack to a movie that didn't yet exist. it would be a few years,in fact, before the movie came out. so it did challenge the listener to use their imagination. the movie did help to fill in some of the blanks such as the first quarter of the story being told in flashbacks. having heard the album,and now seen the movie,you should watch a live stage performance. i saw the original concert in 1980 and it's still #1 on my list. the idea that there was a wall between pink floyd/roger and the audience was the basis of the show. roger thought the audience didn't understand how disconnected he felt from the audience ,and decided to show them by constructing a physical wall between them. so during the first half of the concert the wall was slowly built,and once they ended "goodbye cruel world" the wall was completed. it was roger's way of conveying the frustration he felt after the "animals" tour in 1977. unfortunately the wall shows that were filmed in1980-81 are of very poor quality and have never been released. it's said roger does have a HQ film of one of the shows,but for legal reasons he isn't allowed to release it,so it remains locked away. roger has released a couple of live versions,one from a tour a few years ago,and one from berlin in the late 80s not long after the berlin wall fell. the berlin show featured an all star line up of singers and musicians. i prefer the berlin concert film,but either one is great. the characters of the wife,teacher and mother are portrayed by giant inflatables,and the amazing animation is projected directly on the wall. it's a very unique telling of the story,so don't close the book on the wall just yet.
Inclusion of "When the Tigers Broke Free" was really good and a shame it's missing from the album. You'll never hear so much contempt in the words "rubber stamp"!
Great reaction!! To me: the scene where he "becomes the dictator-like person" on stage - he's having to "dress as someone totally foreign to his ideals" and become something he doesn't like to be able to entertain all the "sheep" - not so much a "controlling person" of the crowd - but, to enable him to deal with all the followers. I've noticed that, at one point in the movie, there: the crowd has the same faces as all the children they're all teaching in school (the conformists to society)....just a thought.... THANKS for reacting to this movie - SO MANY DON'T!! ...and, I'm still not sure WHY??
The movie is an integral part of the art. I watched it, oh I dont know... 400+ times on vhs. If you enjoyed this, you should try to listen to the pro's and con's of hitchiking. No video, but... the story. Man.
When they toured the country (only two cities) shortly after the album was released, those animations were projected on a 40-ft high wall that extended the full width of the stadium. The Wall was constructed during the course of the first half of the show until the band was completely obstructed from view for the second half. Blocks of the wall were removed here and there during the second half to reveal Roger or Dave playing or singing. Roger appeared in front of the wall during Comfortably Numb with Dave popping up on top of the wall 40 feet in the air to sing the chorus and perform the iconic solos. Quite the spectacle.
I saw the Division Bell tour in 1994 in Tampa. What a show. If you look at the pulse tour footage, there was a 200ft arch going across the back of the stage. In the middle, was their traditional round screen. I always thought it looked a great deal like an eyeball. The question was, were you looking out into the world through your eye, or were you looking into another eye? In the same fashion, are you looking from outside the wall, or have you built your own wall??
@johninfl I was at the Pulse tour in Chicago Soldier Field that summer. Incredible experience. Yes that big round screen has been with them since the very beginning. Animation and video is always displayed on it during concerts. Including The Wall concerts. It is an iconic part of their identity.
The Wall was performed live only something like 16 times (I don't know the exact number few very few times) because a) it was way too complicated technically (the band lost a lot of money on it) and b) the stage was just too big for many venues. The only band member who made any money of it was Richard Wright because he was fired from the band during the recordings and rehired as a session musician for the live shows, receiving a fee.
@johninfl 40 meters high, 45 wide (or the other way around). The stage for The Wall live in Berlin in 1990 was a staggering 170 meters (550 foot) wide and 25 meters high
It is almost a must to research the Toronto incident in the 77 pink floyd tour, to get the idea of where this concept came from. People throwing things, fireworks and Roger spitting on a fan.... Great job, thanks.
Yes but I think this is a reduction of reality. Roger wrote about "power and influence of celebrities". The fascist line "Would you like to see, our colour brothers home again" is a verbatim of what Eric Clapton said in a concert. It's about the fascism raising in the 70's. It's NOT Roger's story, it's NOT Syd story, it's "some star" story, a blend of many influences. Of course the Montreal concert might have been a spark, but it's not the only thing this album is talking about.
Some of the songs added were on The Final Cut 1982 the final Pink Floyd album with full lineup. At this point the band deteriorated and Rodger was being an ass firing Richard Wright and going solo not long after. He rehired but dude WTF? Pros and Cons of Hitchhiking and Radio Kaos are swesome, but it was never the same. Pink Floyd released 3 albums after but yeah the Wall is their final masterpiece where they were all together.
That 'interesting cargo'...think of the Germans and Jews in WW2, loaded into cattle cars and sent off to the camps. . That poem...it's the lyrics to another Pink Floyd song, 'Money'. . The album came out in 1979, the movie in 1982. And the messages, the themes presented...are still relevant today.
Not quite. Roger and Dave re recorded the audio for the movie. As you can hear most of the songs sound quite different. "When the Tigers Broke Free" is added, and "Hey You" is left out entirely. "Mother" is completely reinterpreted musically.
I think although it wasn't outlawed until then, they must have stopped the practice of it before then. Because in 1987 I was 8 & my brother was 12, and neither of us ever had to worry about corporal punishment. I'd have been in P3 & my bro in P7, so probably got stopped before the 1980's. Unless it was up to schools whether they practiced it or not, and we just got lucky.
@AD270479 possibly, I'm Irish so things were different here. It was prohibited here in 1982, but teachers weren't liable for criminal prosecution until 1997
I'm Australian and remember getting caned on the palm by the principal for "regularly running on cement - you could hurt yourself" when I was in primary school, 1987 ... I knew the irony even in the moment...
Roger Waters is brilliant, but he was and still is deeply scarred, thus the heavy handed and pessimistic. That being said, the school system in England back in those days was certainly worse than what we have going in.
On dirait que tu es francophone, note de ta remarque au début, The Wall a été pensé DES LE DÉBUT comme quelque chose de multimédia, disque, concert ET film... Dire que l'album se suffit a lui même, c'est vrai, mais c'est AUSSI comme dire la couverture du bouquin est bien et se suffit a elle même... Bien sur ma comparaison est abusive, et je suis sur qu'a la fin du react tu auras peut-être "augmenté" ton avis.

"Young lust" @ 33:33 shows breasts (blurred)...."In the Flesh" @ 44:44 has racist and homophonic lyrics (missing)...."Waiting for the worms" @ 46:03 has racist, homophonic, and Nazi references (half the song missing). Either play it complete or don't play it. UA-cam doesn't delete it.
