Dude I listen like 5 times a day definitely slept on.. Matter of fact I listen to Floyd every single day and nothing else you can get completely lost in bliss.
i have always been here ... i have always looked out from behind these eyes ... it feels like more than a lifetime ... it feels like more than a lifetime ... sometimes i get tired of the waiting ... sometimes i get tired of being in here ... is this the way that it's always been ... could it ever have been different ... do you ever get tired of the waiting ... do you ever get tired of being in there ... don't worry, nobody lives forever ... nobody lives forever
I walked through a zoo one time with ear phones on, as I walked past a black panthers cage a new machine began. The words and that majestic cats eyes were in sync. The pain and suffering of being locked in a cage for a life time. All I could think was Nobody lives forever... Nobody lives Forever.....
In my opinion one of the best ever by Floyd...A New Machine is for me someone contemplating the most difficult questions of life..."Do you ever get tired of being in there"...."Don't worry, Nobody lives forever..." It could be interpreted literally as the New Machine getting old and dysfunctional, and looking back on its existence as having any meaning...or metaphorically, as a "human" machine, questioning the pillars of existence...senses (the sight of "looking out from these eyes"), mortality, temporal life...unbelievable poetry and production...sorry Waters but Gilmour is giving you a run for his money in this piece...
Exactly! But the Roger's camp will never get the fact that the abstract is more sublime then here and now. Roger's songs deal with the here and now, with the mundane one might even say. And in his arrogance he believes that's superior to everything else. But it's not, It's simply different. In fact, traditionally the abstract has always been seen as superior to the "profane".
I agree wholeheartedly. I, like everyone at that time, saw the wright-ing on the wall, (ix-nay on the pun-pardoning), after the final cutting of "Requiem for the post-war dream". I for one wasn't that bummed because after weighing the pros and cons, I knew the Tree of Floyd would just grow another branch and we'd get twice the product in a more time-ly fashion. A momentary lapse of KAOS and BOOM! Best of both worlds. But I sure would like to see a pay-per-view MMA Waters v. Gilmour match. I'd love to ring the division bell on that match.
I still remember when I first heard this in a neighborhood bar was only 18 got in with the rep of my brothers love this song and now I dedicated to the passing of my best friend.
this is real music. not the crap that's around now. it's pure music. this album is just beautiful. and I play it almost every day for a song or two. mostly to relax.

... Soeytacolo!!!.... Era il 1987 ed è stato l'album ( The Momentary Laps Of Reason) che mi ha letteralmente amalgamato con i Pink Floyd facendomi approfondire la conoscenza dei loro capolavori musicali e "marchiandomi" per sempre...... ALFISTA DOC 72
To this way, this is simply one of the most remarkable lyrics I've ever heard. Gilmour informing us that in reality he is a human soul in his earthly body looking out, and reminding us that we are the same... ...that is an AMAZINGLY deep idea, from the first time I heard it it just grappled me and made me aware of myself being a soul looking out from my own eyes like a window, while all "behind" my vision is all dark because I'm in here... and one day will be out when my own lifetime is complete... ...and yet I've never once tried drugs or liquor, and STILL this lyric made me take strong notice of its concept. Tooo me a while to shake. Sort of like being made aware of your tounge, or breathing. I wasn't surprised to learn in Wikipedia at least one music critic called this brilliant - because it is - and another at the time had also made the remark that Pink Floyd's remarkable talent "makes the listener believe they are on drugs". Which is also true. THIS, my friends, is the sort of pieces that demonstrates perfectly what distinguishes The Floyd's brilliance apart from the rest of the pack! :D
It's funny he's never had much confidence lyrically, at least according to him. I'm not sure what songs of his were written lyrically by others or with help from others, many were, but I've always felt his solo work and the Post Rogers Floyd lyrics were as complex and beautiful as any they produced over the years.
CaptainGoofysstash the most apt description of Pink Floyd ever. if you ever did try a drug I suggest smoke a bit of weed. and then listen to these songs with the last song Sorrow. close your eyes and fly with the music. it's Awe inspiring.
I wonder if it had anything to do with Rick Wright's health. Not sure if there were issues at the time, well, other than his depression, which would fit the lyrics quite nicely. Or maybe there just isn't a specific meaning and Gilmoru was being his best impressionist self. It's a strange album to hear again after all those years. It's so 'shackled' to its time, with the smooth, crisp production and that godawful omnipresent saxophone, and yet there is Clare Torry taking us back to DSOTM and the distorted voices refering to an even earlier part of their catalogue... All while the rhythm and composition have this... classical 'proportions' or 'balance' that make it very listenable even today.
I have always been impressed by the rawness, the powerful angst, that David Gilmour evokes in this song. Combined with the music itself and kick-ass production techniques, this is a downright haunting song. In recent months, I have been reading more and more doomsday predictions about how artificial intelligence could destroy us all. Suddenly it dawned on me that this composition could be the theme song for AI. The "New Machine" is AI. Speaking to whoever. The tone of voice, cadence and inflections are those of a nihilistic, all-knowing, yet soulless entity. Scary good.
This song this album im mentally ill my mom bought this album for me. And secretly try to get the point across to me as a teen. I would just sit in my room for years. It's only a life time no one lives forever.
It was not my cup of tea, but I admire any artist that can breath new life into an old classic. I might have liked it better if it had a piece of terminal frost that beautiful sax solo in it.
do you ever get tired of the waiting.....??? do you ever get tired of being in there...... ????? ... don't worry.... nobody lives forever..... nobody lives forever..........
I love this, but it could have been even better. Terminal Frost is a bit too long for the two short parts of A New Machine. Also, the segue into the second part of A New Machine should have been done a lot better.

I agree about Terminal Frost. I like certain elements of it but most of it has an 80's cheese factor that I can't stand. I love A New Machine Pt. 1 and 2 but honestly don't like anything else from this album. It sounds like a coke head's wet dream.
@@SamChaneyProductions They embraced the sound of the 80s and made it their own. I hated it when it came out, but now I feel so nostalgic when I hear it. It's the definitive sound of the 80s. It was a masterful move when you think about it. Without that sound I can bet you the MLOR tour wouldn't be so successful. On the concert footage you can see the people enjoying the new songs because it's the sound they know and love. Also, it was the first time ever that a band in concert sounded exactly the same as on the albums. I'm not a huge fan of that idea, but they were the first that did it, and it paid off big time. It was the right moment to do it. The 80s were the "high fidelity" era, so to speak. Everything had to be polished to perfection. The band recognized that and ran with it. It's truly a brilliant accomplishment. Stanley Kubrick once said that to capture the spirit of the times in any aspect of life is the greatest thing any artist can accomplish. The Pink Floyd here have excelled in that.
Imagine if Paul McCartney had posed for a photo with Ringo Starr, written George Harrison's name on the album liner, and released "Press to Play" as a Beatles album. That's kind of the measure of this album's authenticity as a Pink Floyd record - i.e. none. I don't blame Gilmour for doing it - it was business common sense - but this and its succeeding albums are simply not Pink Floyd albums.
@Orn Gorn I'd say that's different. Gabriel's departure from Genesis was more like Barrett's departure from Pink Floyd. Apart from a few die-hards, no one really thinks Pink Floyd ended in 1968, or Genesis in 1974 - both bands carried straight on, promoted from within and scaled new heights. The reality of Pink Floyd since Animals and arguably earlier was that it was Waters's band, with occasional contributions from the others. By 1983 it was 100% Waters, and Gilmour was not much more than a session musician. The 1986 Pink Floyd had effectively zero continuity from the 1977-1985 Pink Floyd. It was slapping the label on a different proposition. You can argue about the merits of Waters's leadership/domination of Pink Floyd (I think it had pros and cons, to coin a phrase) - but it was a reality. Genesis from 1969-1974 was a real collaboration by a real *band*. Everyone contributed, a lot. By the mid-1980s, it was obvious that Pink Floyd had come to a natural end, and hadn't been a functioning band for 5-10 years. The 1986 project simply wasn't credible as an incarnation of the band that had been led by Barrett and Waters. Gilmour had every right to make this album, but it wasn't a Pink Floyd album. It had the words "Pink Floyd" on the cover but wasn't logically a Floyd album any more than Radio KAOS, Broken China or even Profiles were.
The best suite on the album, almost sounds like it could have been written by Pink Floyd. Saxophones are awful tho' way too much sax. Best bass on the album. Best Guitar on the album. Ruined by production. 6/10

Dont worry, nobody lives forever..
