    It was written and dedicated to the original singer, Sid Barrett. Sid suffered from schizophrenia, and the band watched as Sid slowly lost his battle of being able to distinguish what was and wasn't reality (this is my understanding from a very in depth documentary of the band). It was a tribute to Sid and their way of expression at the loss of their friend. Wish you were here...

      The big problem for me with that Pulse concert performance is the handling of the Roger Waters vocal parts, where they used multiple vocalists singing harmony, this kind of ruins the whole performance for me, I just can't get past it. I much prefer a later live version of David Gilmour's with Chuck Leavell doing the Roger Water parts, I am definitely in the minority on this though.

    Keep in mind when you're reacting to songs from the 70's, for the most part, we had no video's then. They were meant to just listen to(usually stoned), but listen to anyway. Most of the video's you see were added later, usually by fans, seldom by the bands themselves. That's why so many (often) are live, as that's the only times they were filmed. There are exceptions of course, like some Bowie or Beatles songs etc.. but they were cutting edge and the beginning of the rock video phenomena, which really didn't start in earnest until MTV in the early 80's. Just keep loving the music and lyrics, that's what it's all about.

      It doesn’t have to be huge. It can speak to lost time. Running the same neighborhood, but not running into each other. Not making time to meet up. You can lose years like that. And now you wish they were here. In can speak to a situation where that person is lost, or passed away, or even if that person has changed so much you don’t recognize them …

After the 100th listen you have an idea of what it all means to you! Pink Floyd, Moody Blue's, Led Zeppelin those of us that were lucky enough to be in the right place and time for all this truly great music and the culture know how to appreciate it all. Or at least most of us do! It's just so great to witness some of it to start over again when people are exposed to it all again!

    All through the 60's in my house we mostly listened to Top 40 oriented music. Then in the early 70's my dad upgraded the system and we discovered album oriented FM radio and my life change forever. The golden age of music had arrived and we had so many choices of genres and artists without corporate dictators saying how long a song could be, what subjects were appropriate, which album cuts would be played. Artists like Pink Floyd, Steely Dan, Joni Mitchell, CSN&Y, Stevie Wonder, Marvin Gaye, and too many to name would have an entire album played on the radio uninterrupted. My most treasured possession when I moved into the dorm in college was my (very cheap) turn table. This was the soundtrack of our lives and we still travel in the sonic time machine back to those days. Welcome to the party.

      Today is my 6th anniversary of being diagnosed with an incurable (but somewhat controllable) cancer. “Time” and “Great Gig In The Sky” mean more to me now than they ever have. The rest of the album is a terrific look at where we were in 1973 and still very relevant to where we are in 2024. And none of these guys had reached their 30th birthday yet by the time this was written and recorded - that may be the most astonishing part of the whole thing.

    I will be 62 next Friday, June 28th, and I LOVE Pink Floyd. I introduced my granddaughter to them in when she was 4. She loved to yell "Vera" to the song. "Vera". It's from the album "the Wall". Here is a little info on that song. "Vera is a beautiful and poignant tribute to Vera Lynn, a British singer whose songs provided comfort and solace during World War II. Listening to “Vera,” one can’t help but feel a deep connection with the past and the struggles faced by those during times of war. The song captures the essence of longing for a brighter future, where loved ones can be reunited once again. (Writer Unknown). If you want a couple more to react to I recommend, "Shine On You Crazy Diamond" and Comfortably Numb, they are in my top 10. Thanks! Beth Ann

    Sid Barrett who founded Pink Floyd as a psychedelic rock band unfortunately suffered from schizophrenia that was exacerbated by drug use. Not just this song, but the entire “Wish You Were Here” album is dedicated to him after he was unable to continue with the band. You should also check out “Shine On You Crazy Diamond” from the same album.

    Peg reacting to Floyd is gold. When someone asks me who I think were the greatest rock bands, I tell them this. Zep, Floyd, Rush, Sabbath, and Purple were all above number one. After those 5, we can discuss who is number one. Maybe Beatles, the Stones, the Who, maybe Metallica?

    Some of the greatest lyrics ever written.
    "Did you exchange a walk on part in the war, for a lead role in a cage."
    This line means so much...did you exchange a role where you made a difference, even a small one, to become the star only within your own prison. It really focuses on what is meaningful and what isn't.

    heres a challenge for you. listen to the entire album start to finish. its dedicated to syd barret - founding member of pink floyd. he was late for rehearsal following the success of dark side of the moon. tragically he was located at the commune were he lived ,had taken a large dose of LSD and was lost in his own head and never fully recovered. the album hits about the presures of the music industry and how it uses up young artists !

    The song is beautiful.
    Waters said this about writing the song;
    It’s to encourage myself not to accept a lead role in a cage, but to go on demanding of myself that I keep auditioning for the walk-on part in the war, ‘cause that’s where I want to be. I wanna be in the trenches. I don’t want to be at headquarters; I don’t wanna be sitting in a hotel somewhere. I wanna be engaged.”

    Today I caught this while preparing for tomorrow. June 29th 1968, my mother passed away. Seventeen years later my 3rd son was born on that date, who has now also passed 6 years ago. He is now forever 32. This song always gives me a very nostalgic feeling and I have always appreciated the width and depth of the lyrics. Please check out the Pulse live version of Great Gig in the Sky. I have loved that song from day one, before I had a clue of the meaning behind it. Great reaction. Great rabbit hole to fall into!

    I get so emotional listening to this song, it's so beautiful and the acoustic guitar is gorgeous. There are so many wonderful Pink Floyd songs, another one which means a lot to me is 'High Hopes', a live version from the Pulse concert is fabulous. The Pulse concert from 1994 must have been fantastic to attend and the song 'Comfortably Numb' from there has got one of the best guitar solos ever from David Gilmour, I think you would love it! Another one is 'Sorrow' from the same concert, the guitar sounds are incredible.

    2nd, one of the stories that came out about this - and many of their songs - is that it's about Syd Barrett who was a founding member. He has a tragic story of mental illness.
    3rd, most of us were stoned listening to Pink Floyd. So some of us might regress to saying 'Dude....' the rest of the day. Lol

    Honestly though, if you reallllly wanna listen to Floyd, the very best way to take him in, is to drive out to the middle of nowhere, lie on thw hood of your car, nothing but you, the nightsky and stars, and Floyd blaring from thw stereo.
    I spent many nights that way in college.
    You can feel their music to the bone. Incredible.
