#PinkFloyd #NotNowJohn #TheFinalCut
That old guy at the beginning was in The Wall movie .He played the schoolteacher with the “psychopathic wife” from The Happiest Days of our Lives.
Or more descriptively, the school teacher who was well known in the town for getting home at night and having a fat and psychopathic thrash him within inches of his life.
Ooooooooooh
I think it’s supposed to be the same character
If you don't eat your meat.. You can't have any puddin.. How can you have any puddin if you don't eat your meat
Captain obviuos to our rescue
Good ol Alex McAvoy
This song gets way too overlooked when people talk about the best Pink Floyd songs ever. This is up there.
I love it
A hidden gem
Liz Truss thinks so 🤣🤣
Así es yo creo que es una de las mejores canciones del grupo
Living in Burlington, VT the summer it came out, I could hear it unadulterated on a Canadian radio station CHOM, 97.7 in Montreal. Startling, right, making you wonder why we retain the quaint and antiquated rules for public airwaves that we've had for, I would suggest, too long.
Nothing quite like hearing Gilmour wail “F*** all that”!!
He did? I love his most used line through out his career "shut the fuck up"
Then looks at the camera and smiles.
This is WATERS
@@demonchild6551 It's both.
@@demonchild6551 Waters only does it in the final section, the first 3 verses ("fuck all that...", "not now John..." and "hang on John...") are sung by Gilmour.
Can you imagine if Roger never left!?! Seriously, mind blown.. Obviously The Final Cut was more a Roger show and that's ok with me. I truly love their solo work but nothing touches them together. Including, The Final Cut..
The more I listen to 'The Final Cut' the more I enjoy it. It's right up there with 'The Wall' sonically and emotionally. The guitar solo in this song is brutally awesome in tone and composition, and Water's voicing of the lyrics is spot on. Good show, lads.
The Final Cut is the leftovers of The Wall
@@svalbardstudios7198 No, roger showed the band this and the wall, and they chose the wall. Because they said the final cut was to personal
This album should have been incorporated in to the wall album and made it a three record album!!
It would phase into the narrative quite well and give a more in-depth conclusion to the storyline.
@@turokforever007 this is only partially true. What Rogers suggested was The Wall and The Pros and Cons of Hitch Hiking (which would become his first solo album). The Final Cut is mostly leftovers from songs that were meant to be part of The Wall. But they, indeed, rejected including these leftovers for this reason.
@@svalbardstudios7198 that’s only partly true
It takes an immeasurable amount of talent and genius to write, perform and produce a song like this.
The director really, really liked that shot of the arc welder.
Really really liked
😂
Someone went to tulsa welding school
It might signify the workers being lazy and not getting anything done. Not sure, but that's my take
@Rodent's Revenge Was this you in the video? They seem to be enjoying welding the same spot over and over
Pink Floyd is more than a life. It is above time and space. The boundary of human sense. It's been 50 years and still goes on and on and on....
I like to think oysters transcend National barriers…
@@FRElston Rock music has no relation with nationals nor with boundaries.
@@FRElstonAbbey rd studio !?
This is such a underated Floyd song. one of Gilmores best solos IMHO
All of The Final Cut is underated
true
Why do some people spell it "gilmore" and not "gilmour"?
@@someonegaming7710 Just as how people say “should of” instead of “should have”, because they can and they don’t give a sh*t!
Are you out of your effin mind, one of Gilmore best solos? Wow
Still my favorite song on the album.
40 years old and counting... Still a masterpiece
I can't get enough of this band.
and i like it
Join the club amigo
We used to drop microdot and listen to these guys for sure...
Great rock and roll, with an extra dimension.
1:45 What a powerful guitar solo!
The Final Cut is an album that changed my way to understand all that is war. Roger Waters is a genius in that aspect and obviously, David Gilmour nailed every single guitar solo.
One of my favorite PF/RW album out there!
Well said. The song makes a clever portrait of the complexity of war indeed. Like Yash Tandon describes in his book "Trade Is War - The West's War Against the World". There is no real peace without justice and equality in trading.
yes, waters is one artist who has refused to be victimised by the perception control of the elite. he would be a good president, but he's not part of the elite bloodlines that david icke can tell you everything about.
Says that with the album as his PROFILE PIC!
agreed,,, some of Water's best lyrics and Gilmour's best Playing... Such a truly sad and satisfying Album...
well said, sir. despite the miserable experience, Gilmour's guitar is never more angry and powerful. I could listen to his playing on this album repeatedly and never get bored. Respect to him for delivering the goods whilst, apparently, being very unhappy with the process of recording the album.
Best song of this album
That's because it's the only good song of that album.
Anthony Stargaryen i like your possible past and fletcher memorial home too
But this is the best.
The whole album is great. It demands a certain degree of sophistication from the listener, that's all.
The best was The Gunner's Dream. The Final Cut also. But this was also very good.
@@anthonyfarshaw8619 true that!
I've been listening to Pink Floyd for 50 year's.
In two or three centuries, Pink Floyd will be remembered as we now remember classical musicians such as Beethoven, Chopin, Vivaldi and so on. They already are going down into history...
The instant I listened to the first post-Barrett Pink Floyd track, I forgot all about 'em.
If we last that long.
@@blackmore4 You must have been horribly confused when you watched this video, what with the forgetting them entirely and all.
@@broseywales5538 Not at all. I saw this and I thought, oh yes, Barrett's old backing band. And then I remembered how ordinary I thought they were without him decades ago, so I wondered if I'd think they were any better decades later. Sadly not..
Not likely. Or so I hope.
Why is no one talking about the noises Roger makes with his mouth at 3:05 it's such a good part these little details make his concepts/lyrics sound even more mind-blowing than they are already
There's a video (or several) on UA-cam of just noises that Roger makes throughout Pink Floyd songs. Many of them I thought were the sounds of distorted instruments or sound effects, but no, it's Roger.
Ok, I secretly love his live rendition of Careful with that AXe, Eugene ( tell me about Roger's noises, lol)
Plus, when I play Have a Cigar, I naturally try to emulate Roger's timber rather than the.... that dude.
You did 🥴😜😂
It's the sound Tom makes when Jerry hits him hahahahahhaah
THE BEST BAND EVER!!!!!!!!!
David Osterberg THE BEST.
David Osterberg no ,The Best.
Do u heard the Beatles¿
Best band ever exists.
What about YES?
I used to listen to the Final Cut with my boyfriend. I lost him . He was shot . Final Cut is now sharper even after a decade of losing him...
Sorry to hear that Yasi. I wish you all the best. Good luck and be strong!🌺
So sad
Really sorry
There's a kid who had a big hallucanation...
🙏🙏💙💙🎶🎶. Rogers Pros & Cons was my husband’s & mine. He’s been gone 4 years but his fighting Spirit lives on🎶🎶👊💙✌️
Sorry for your loss🙏🙏🙏
A bass line that grabs you and shakes you around a bit. Rockin'!
This is an underrated song from Pink Floyd
the whole Final Cut album is underrated in my opinion
@@byron2521 I always rated it. In my top 4 Pink Floyd Albums.
Astonishing, it radiates 80’s from every pore, and it’s a fantastic time voyage. I was not used to appreciate this album as much as it deserved
One of my favorite songs from PF, Final Cut is one of the best albums of that era, it is perfect to me. Many people didn´t like it because they were waiting for another The Wall. I love these songs.
Gabriel Calderon or one could argue they DIDN'T want another the Wall and instead they got a watered down, less impressive, all Waters version of the Wall.
There's barely any of Gilmours amazing voice or guitar. There's zero Richard Wright; no funky organ, spaced out synths, perfect high harmonies..
Just more of Roger singing about politics at the top of his vocal range.
Like the Wall it lacked many of Floyds staples that many fans grew to love and expect (virtuoso solos, space funk, stoner rock, tight grooves). But unlike the wall, it didn't have an interesting story, or the Gilmour collaborations. It had no cool packaging. Just boring political nonsense which has been present in Waters solo career ever since.
(He even found a way to make The Wall a statement on Trump politics).
I was obsessed with Pink Floyd, and I bought every album and marvelled at the gems hidden inside. Each one had a different set of characteristics that showed their growth and talent. When I got to the Final Cut (and to a lesser extent the Wall), I could sense it was a different band. I miss the days of WYWH when the whole band was firing on all cylinders. And then even Animals had a certain sound to it that made u realize they were a tight, badass band. But the material dried up so Rogers had to start writing songs like Vera.
Gilmour's voice is substantially lessor than Waters. Richard Wright is the weak link. The reason the Wall and Final Cut have better keys is because they fired that clown and got a better player. Vera is better than anything in Wish You Were Here.
"virtuoso solos"
I scoff at you sir.
Flacid House well I scoff at your definition of what good Floyd truely is. Are u saying Gilmour had the weaker voice? His vocals are smooth as honey! And the way he constructed and played melodic solos on DSOTM, WYWH, Animals, and Comfortably Numb (arguably the best song on the wall) is indeed the contributions of a true virtuoso. Floyd fans had come to expect the long, exploratory solos. And Richard Wright was no slouch. Listen to live versions of Sheep, or Shine On. He added a ton. The boring, session musicians playing grand piano on Nobody's Home can't hold a candle to Richard Wrights contributions. His vocal harmonies, and subtle layering of his synth and keys are a huge part of what people love about Floyd. I'll take a long jammed out version of Echoes, Shine On, Dogs or Sheep (with blistering organs, Spacey synths, atmospheric keys) over Waters and his session musicians any day. I'm a fan of the band and their TRUE collaborations. They all had a lot to offer. The chord progression of Great Gig In The Sky is a true work of art. If you can't refer to that as the work of a virtuoso, than what is?
Waters by the way, is by far the least accomplished musician in FLOYD by his own admission. So the fact you can even pretend his writing on Final Cut is superior is the true scoff worthy remark.
Obviously it's still cool and better than a lot of crap, but seriously..Not Now John doesn't even rate above the WORST songs on anything recorded between DSOTM and Animals. Seriously even instrumental jams like Any Colour You Like are way better. Because it's a cohesive effort between 4 good musicians. That alone makes it better than Final Cut and anything by boring old, political, Margaret Thatcher obsessed, talk-singing, depressing, WW2 reminiscing Roger Waters.
I say that all in good fun, I still love Waters and Floyd. But come on you can't be serious.
I disagree in that, Roger Waters was the main brain that made possible masterpieces likes DOTM or The Wall. For that reason A momentary lapse of reason from 1987 was not that good, Roger was missing. The solo albums of Roger are good and I like them, but the others three members are missing. For that reason, thet are not that great. The four together are magic and perfection. I still like Roger over David, is a more interesting personality for me. Even The Final Cut, is still a goog quality album today comparing it with the crap music made today with autotune.
Smooth is not a quality denoting strength. Watch the recording of Darkside of the Moon. Waters runs him through several mediocre solos to get to the good ones. Gilmour is bitching and saying "Isn't that good enough?"
The truth about those solos is that they are made by what happens around them. It's the chords and arrangements that make them sound so good. That's why Gilmour's solos never sound as good without Waters.
Solos wandering around the blues scale are not exploratory. Wright is a slouch. It's his defining characteristic. Listen to live versions of those songs Water did without Wright. Their better.
Nobodies Home is a better keyboard performance than anything Wright ever recorded. If people prefer Wright so Much why is the album he was fired on widely considered their best?
You don't know what a virtuoso is. Wright has shoddy technique.
Not Now John is Better than anything off animals and just abut every one on Darkside.
Waters is by far the most accomplished Musician in Pink Floyd.
I scoff at your scoff.
I fuckin’ love Pink Floyd. Favorite band of all time, growing up in the 90s, I used to catch my old man chillin in the garage drinking whiskey and smoking a cigarette to this song as well as many others. He definitely got me into Pink Floyd. Thanks pops! 🤙
Wow! I haven't heard this song in so long!!!!!! How do we manage to forget out favorite songs?
Epic guitar solo David. One of my favorites
I love Pink Floyd. From Buenos aires. Argentina
" we showed Argentina"....lyric from this song
I was living in Buenos Aires when the album came out. Bought my copy at the Tower Records in Belgrano. Wonderful times.
This is a brilliant tune with fantastic lyrics and a scorching Gilmour solo
Boy, the mood whiplash I felt when I first heard this song.
Gilmour is strangely angry on the vocals. But..it fits.
He probably wanted to slap Roger silly and no one could blame him
sundar mann ever heard the Nile Song or Ibiza Bar?
@@whatittakes8530 those are brilliant songs !
Since the lyrics are about John Lennon being killed while Pink Floyd were working on Alan Parker's "The Wall" movie, the anger is appropriate. Roger Waters was a huge John Lennon appreciator.
I think he was dealing with his anger during the wall and final cut. in the wall he was clearly dealing with resentment at WWII, which his father died in, as well as other grief. all the greatest artist have used their art as a release.
So. I just bought the new Apple earbuds and I’m listening to this with noise reduction on. Filtering out all outside noise. And this song is mind blowing.. I’m hearing things that I haven’t ever heard. It’s amazing
Pound for pound, I don’t think there’s ever been a band I’ve loved more
Bingo
I remember the radio- and MTV-safe single version that had "stuff all that". Useless trivia: the old man at the beginning and end is Alex McAvoy, who also played the teacher in Pink Floyd: The Wall.
Flatch Flaturated Yep I remember that, and I thought that might be the teacher, thanks!
Thank you, captain obvious! We miss you.
Flatch Flaturated thank you for that it was Killing me trying to remember
It's not useless trivia. It's meant to be the same charcter, actually. The Hero's Return tells his story on the album.
@@64SKELL I'd heard that.
Very well may be my favorite solo of David's....absolutely love the tone and just the overall attitude of it...BAD ASS ☺
Just listened for the first time, great Video! David's voice sure packs a punch, he really let's it all out - loud and clear. I love it great beat, definitely hear PF in the beginning guitar jam's. It's cool.
@@julesrose3337 Despite how much Gilmour disliked The Final Cut, it does feature, I think, some of his best guitar solos.
once I really listened to this CD I loved it. it's like an extension of the wall.
Hollywood waits at the end of the rainbow... love this album. The entire album rocks!!! I can go on and on but.... simply love it!!!!!
One of my favourite David Gilmour solo's of all time! And an amazing song in it's simplicity and power! Unfortunately, one of the most brutal videos ever made...
Its not a solo
I can’t be the only welder here who is laughing their ass off watching that guy strike up a good 100 times in a row😂😂😂
Davis Bowers was thinking the same thing lol
Davis Bowers worlds first pulse stick 😄
And why is he heating up the handrail? Nasty prank on the next shift.

PINK FLOYD THANK YOU.
Who knew there was an official video?? Def One of the best Floyd tunes! The Final Cut is a great album.
The two voices are supreme
This has fast become one of my favourite Pink Floyd songs!
Great album. Great band. Thanks for the memories. Saucerful, Meddle, Dark Side, Wish YWH, Animals, Wall, Final Cut.
I did my entire English poetry section exam on this album and aced it Thank you Teacher !!!
Dios!!! El ritmo de esta canción me revive una y otra vez. Es increíble ❤️
“OI WHERES THE FOKIN BAR JOHN!”
Thank you for filling in the blanks!
As usual, relating to Pink Floyd, there is always a dialog splitting into two people...
I dig it
S'il vous plait, où est le bar ?
@@steveleplongeur4967 je sais pas
Love it. Classic Floyd.
This vintage voice is so soothing. This is the time machine to the 70s
70s? That's 1983.
awesome, pink floyd the best in the world, some geniuses
Finally some love for my left ear
Amer Iskandar YOU JUST DISRRESPECTED MONO
I’m deaf in the right ear anyway!
The best song on the final cut album .
Which isn’t saying much. But it’s by far the best song on the album.
This is probably my top favourite album ever
Gilmour like a boss
this was probably the song which got me into this amazing band. funnily enough, i'm listening to the flaming lips' version of dark side of the moon when this was uploaded.
seen flamings lips they are awesome
Pink Floyd the best of the world!
Bloody amazing guitar solo!!! 🔥🔥
Still my favorite Pink Floyd song.
Best song on the album
Ganhei de natal o The Final Cut no ano de lançamento, em 1983. ''Not Now John'' tinha tomado de assalto as FMs naquele ano, me lembro como se fosse joje. Essa música é uma verdadeira paulada nos ouvidos com os vocais do David Gilmour. Bons tempos que não voltam mais.
Eu me lembro dessa música nas rádios. Eu tinha 12 para 13 anos. Foi o ano em que eu comecei a ouvir rock.
Fav song from Final Cut ♡
Joshua 'TheTrueMaster' Baptista This the only song i like from final cut lol
Hey, me too
Cause David made it so !
Two suns at the sunset
A great album!
I enjoy revisiting an old classic. It was a whole different world back then.
If you heard any song ever...With no words, only instruments playing.... Gilmour's guitar is enough to distinguish it as exclusively him and no one else. For it just has that special uniqueness that sets him apart, and above all others. It's simply poetry in acoustic heaven ✊🏼
Well said. Waters may have taken over the writing, but no one can replace Gilmours guitar playing.
Nesta época o Roger Waters, estava muito revoltado com a vida.Nunca conseguiu ultrapassar a morte do seu pai,o que é compreensível.Um abraço amigo!
just awesome
Honor y Gloria a los Veteranos de Guerra de Malvinas!!! (1982) 🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷
masterpiece
hermosa canción amo a la banda británica PINK FLOYD , amo esta canción como a la canción :FINAL CUT de Pink Floyd.
Thank you! Wishing you a beautiful day x) 🦋
Why ohhhh god why was this album not filled with songs like this. Good stuff
Glad to find this. I remember hearing it a looooong time ago, like when it 1st came out, & wasn't sure what it was called or if it was Floyd or a Gilmore or Waters solo effort. Floyd "fans" couldn't help & after all these years here it is. It wasn't a figment of my imagination.
What a momment to be called John
Sorrow is another great song, wait what was I thinking, all Pink Floyd songs are great.
I always loved this one, so sweet!
Wow! I thought I was a pretty good Pink Floyd fan, but I don’t remember this. Brilliant
Fkin love this album
You can really hear the mania in that magnificent guitar solo when it bursts in.
Simply Fantástic this Song 🎵🎼🎶🎸😎👊
The Final Cut is a great album and this song blew me away when I first heard it in the 80s. It may have been the theme song of my 20s. Now I put it on to wake me TF up.
Gilmour has rage in his voice because he had to go along Water's whims.
Waters whims were pretty impressive concept albums from the late 60's for another 15 years- all solid gold. If Gilmour wasn't happy, he could have got off the gravy train. He chose not to. Then complained about it publicly. Incidentally I think they are both awesome.
@@oris247 Waters is Pink Floyd
@@oris247 They are both awesome, but honestly, even if Gilmour is one of my all time favourite musician, on their own the band members are just 4 great artists. Together though is were the magic happened, Pink Floyd as a team is the once in 100 years band we all know and love. Their best work is definitly between Syd dropping out (Gilmour joined) and right before this (Water took full creative control)
@@verdadesejadita5710 Waters is Waters. Pink Floyd is Pink Floyd. Not like Pink Floyd would be Pink Floyd if Pink Floyd had not David Gilmour producing one all time top 10 guitar solo after another. Rick+Nick definitly had their own influence but primarily Dave's musical genius combined with Roger's genius for lyrics and concept art is Pink Floyd.
@@abmo32 well said
Love this song
Pink Floyd, esses génios do rock!
A maior parte das composições do álbum The Final Cut eram de Waters, assim como os vocais, excepto o single em destaque k era de Waters & Gilmour. Mas esse não foi o único single. O outro single era The Fletcher Memorial Home, todo cantado pelo Waters. Já no álbum anterior, o The Wall, a maior parte das composições e vocais eram de Waters.
Amazing................................................
FINALLY
I was just looking for this not even a week ago. Great that it's the uncensored version, too. "Stuff all that" is a pretty painful bowlderization
Agree it’s awesome
The Final Cut is not commercial I'm glad the album didn't get big because it feels more like mine.
On the album most of the song tracks were mailed back and forth.
genius. applicable even today!
Some of Gilmours best solos are on this album. So sad he never played any live. And no I dont need it explained to me. :) I was crushed when they didn't tour for it..
Great group
About 23 years past when i saw this last time on MTV!
THOSE WERE THE TIMES...
Boa música, é Pink Floyd!❤❤😊🎸🎸🎸🎸
Best track on the album.
