Some parents read to their children when they are still in the womb, but those who play Pink Floyd for them will give birth to the coolest kid in town.👍
Damn, I was born before Pink Floyd but I started listening in middle school. Hope I'm still one of the cool kids lol
Cool analogy !
This is true. Indubitably.
Fact!!!
My dad had this album on repeat in the 70's. It's burned into my brain.
You can't understand the meaning of these songs unless you listen to them in the context of the whole album. Animals the album is based on George Orwell's Animal Farm. Each song represents aspects of the story and the animals in it. Dogs is my favorite. The guitar solo is one of David Gilmour's best.
Another Vote for “Dogs” as it’s also my favorite from this album.
Well said
Yep to all of it.
I've been listening to this album since it first came out in the late 70s (aging myself!) No matter how many times I hear the guitar solo in Dogs, my eyes still get teary when I hear it because the guitar is so beautiful. Also, there is so much tragedy in the lyrics, even though the tragedy is deserved.
I purchased a copy of Animal Farm for every kid in my extended family. They need to know what's going on today in America. This album drives it home.
As a long time Floyd fan I have got to say that I am super impressed how Amber quickly catches on to the meaningfulness of their songs. And that’s just after a first listen. It took me years and countless listens to grasp the meaning and she zeroes on it immediately. Yes. Pigs are the greedy bastards feeding off the misery of others. Very good Amber. Bravo!
She probably looks up the lyrics beforehand?....
I suspect she has a huge intuitive streak to her way of thinking …I mean that in the most complimentary way. She just dials straight in
How relevant is this whole album in today's very dark world.
@@arizonacolour8793 yes! That is quite possible.
Sorry, but I'm not that impressed! Nobody is that intuitive hearing a song for the first time & amazing how they manage to know when a solo is coming up and pause right on cue? Same with every single "first time" reaction they do. All of these reaction channels are pretty much faking.
Animals is my favorite Pink Floyd album. Perfection front to back.
I totally agree with you. I first heard it on my cousin's stereo the week it was released in 1977. It clinched me as a permanent Floyd fan.
Animals is definitely in my top 5. Every song is amazing with a great sound
The entire album "Animals" is based on the George Orwell novel "Animal Farm" which is in part, an allegory for the divisions in certain societies. Pigs are at the top while they control the mid-level or enforcers of the social order the Dogs who are the taskmasters of the majority working class represented by sheep. At least that's what I get from the record and readings made over the last 44 years. It is one of if not the darkest (and my personal favorite) albums in Pink Floyd's discography. At the time of the writing and subsequent release of the album, there was a movement to censor records in the U.K. led by a person named Mary Whitehouse. She is referenced in this song. Our "White House" works as an allegory of the "pigs" too. Have a great day. Be safe...be well...
You pretty much nailed it my friend.
Yep
Warning of socialism
@@Mr05Chuck From Waters the socialist?
@@Mr05Chuck More like a warning of Fascism.
One of the things I love most about Pink Floyd is that they're never in a hurry to get somewhere. Their music takes the time it takes to do the job, and they never rush the process. So the listener's mind is always free to wander and float away on their perfectly crafted sorcery. Nobody else is as patient with their music as Floyd, and I love that!
Quite Nicely Put- thanks
Dude, that is the best depiction of their stuff I've read.
That is spot-on!
It's the use of space. The engineer on DSOM Alan Parsons put it well. The band were never afraid of silence. It's that gift, creating space for the music to work!
I started listening to Pink Floyd when I was 16 years old. I am now 62 years old. And still , I can't get enough of Pink Floyd.
Headphones on, eyes closed, head bobbing to the sounds, mind absorbing every sound, thinking of nothing else, and trying to remember to breathe. This is how you listen to Pink Floyd. Good job, you both got it!
Being high took it to another level!!
"Dogs" is the best song off this album (and one of the band's best songs period). It's 17 minutes long, but you gotta listen to it. "Animals" is their heaviest album.
My sentiments exactly!!
Yes!! “ Dogs” is unbelievable!! To us old school Floyd fans it’s some of their best stuff for so many reasons.
Amen!
It got real heavy, Gilmour was trying out a distortion pedal for the first time. And he had fun with it on Dogs
It took someone’s reaction for me to understand the three POV in Dogs, and how the same evil alpha character in the first part was the poor manipulated schmuck by the last part. “It’s a big club, and you’re not in it.”
This album is a masterpiece. Dark Side is a masterpiece. Meddle is a masterpiece.
PINK FLOYD is perfection.
Wish You Were Here is also a masterpiece, and The Wall is just short of a masterpiece.
@@SirHilaryManfat this is true...The Wall is due for a full listen
Echoes was the model for their sound from that point. Which brings up a point is they should listen to Echoes.
talking about masterpiece- here's a true one from Roger Waters: Amused to Death you gotta listen to it!
@@tommack9395 and Fearless
I remember summer of 1979 walking in into a local record store In Mountain View California I asked the guy at the counter Hey I'm looking for something really cool what's your recommendation He walks directly To the "P's" in the album section and pulls out Pink Floyd Animals and proceeds to tell me buy this along with Dark side of the moon and Wish you were here, go home and lock yourself in your room your life will never be the same!....He was right!
Pink Floyd can be best described as the greatest band that ever existed. They are 4 true masters of the craft of music.
I hate to echo the sentiments of everybody else. However, Pink Floyd was the epitome of Album Rock. You should really listen to each album in their entirety, because where most bands/artists record different songs on an album, Pink Floyd's albums were each their own performances.
Love your channel. Love Pink Floyd. I turned 54 years old this year, and it warms my heart to see younger people like yourselves educating yourselves and the rest of your viewers about different forms of music, other than what you normally listen too.
Best heard alone with low light using headphones.
I get what you are saying, but I really appreciate each song individually. You can't get it wrong with Gilmour and PF,
Thanks... That was so well worded! My feelings exactly!
I am 66 and hear what you are saying, the younger generations are starting to catch onto how good the Rock Era was. Some have gotten a couple tears. I'm
convinced good Rock Music will not fade anytime soon and Pink Floyd will be the official music of future Space Travel.
I’m 73 and and still listen Floyd with headphones and it takes you way back
From 1973 to 1977, Pink Floyd released Dark Side of the Moon, Wish You Were Here and Animal's. Maybe the most prolific output of any artist ever. Every album is a masterpiece.
The Wall is the most prolific album of all time!!!!
Well actually no. Being a double album, you have to cut the sales numbers in half as the RIAA counts actual discs.
Meddle is still great tho
The concept of the Animals album is that we are a nation of sheep, ruled by dogs and owned by pigs
Dogs is IMHO one of the best songs ever by Pink Floyd ❤
Yeah, but that whole album does it for me. It's an angry political album. Vicious honesty, compared with the previous two albums which I thought were more philosophically political. All three masterpieces of course. Best band ever along with the beatles.
The Whitehouse they are talking about is Mary Whitehouse. She was a conservative campaigner that was trying to keep "objectionable" (sex, swearing, ect.)material off of tv. This is just a classic album from beginning to end. I hope it ends up in heavy rotation at your house like it was in mine growing up. Also, it has my all-time favorite bass line!
Yes, she was the Tipper Gore of the '70s, she complained about a Doctor Who episode that ended with Tom Baker being underwater, probably drowning, to be continued next week. She made a lot of noise. Context adds a lot.
Thanks for the info. Always wondered but never looked it up. Love Floyd for the past 40+ years. Once drove 900 miles to see a show in Cleveland and drive home the next day. HELL YEAH IT WAS WORTH IT!!! It would most likely kill me today so I'm glad I scratched that off the bucket list when I was young. 😂😂🤘🏻🤘🏻
Mary Whitehouse for sure, but knowing Roger as we do, I would´nt be surprised that the White House was´nt rattle´ing around in his head, using Mary as a way of stating his opinion about how he felt about the then situation in the world, and still relevant today.
I think Deep Purple did a song about her too.
You hit the nail on the head im65 an seen this concert at Cleveland Stadium in 76
Animals was loosely based on George Orwell’s Animal Farm and designed to reflect Britain’s political landscape of the ‘70s. Sheep are the mindless heard while the pigs are those in power and the dogs do their bidding. (Abridged version)
“Dogs” is my favorite song. Ever. And the entire album (“Animals”) is my very favorite PF album of all time. Masterpiece!
Also, he U.S.A. landscape.
It was a vicious indictment of communism. Or at least the (inevitable) corruption of socialism ideals by the basic, greedy, power-seeking nature of man.
@@robertbrown8576 Sadly. USA has elevated stupidity and piggish conservative greed to an extreme level seldom seen.
I love it when Amber gets into it and is onboard when the song ends and her first sentence is "I have a lot to say!" You two are so much fun.
Amber, wow, you understood it completely, and on the first listen, wow.
Animals is my favorite Pink Floyd album. Nobody else was doing anything like this, it's a masterpiece, never far from my playlist. It should be enjoyed as an album, but if you want to just do the songs Dogs should be next.
Favorite Pink Floyd album is SUCH a fun topic of discussion. Mine probably has to be Wish You Were Here, but Animals is definitely top three. Would love to see them react to the song Wish You Were Here.
@UCtS30SSxgVk1bDVteWA_Hbg Censors have many man y detractors. I'm on Roger's side and the majority.
@@jackwells8107 It is odd that my favorite PF song is on Wish you were here but my favorite album is Animals.
My favorite PF album too!
Some people think that "Animals" was Pink Floyd's answer to punk bands who claimed to hate prog rock and big 70s bands at the time... not at all. First, the album was recorded in late 1976 (around the time punk rock was emerging), secondly the sounds and lyrics of this album are angrier and more politically charged than any punk records. I wish Dave's wicked solo would never end (and these bass lines he plays too, freaking awesome!). Brilliant reaction, Amber and Jordan (I bet you enjoyed the cowbell 🤪), I couldn't agree more 👏👏
Some of these songs were written in 74'
Thank you! I have said this about Animals before that is was more punk in attitude and lyrics than the bands that claimed to be punk at the time. So happy to see someone else agree! :)
You guys should look up this dude called “seven hunnid” , he underrated
@@matthewburkart7718 Definitely rright! You Gotta Be Crazy (a.k.a. Dogs) and Raving and Drooling (a.k.a. Sheep) were performed live in 1974
Ambers face when the solo started was like “This song is already amazing, now David Gilmour is going to play a solo.”✌️✌️✌️✌️✌️
I once had this album played while in a floatation tank. Life was never quite the same.
That "weightless" feeling you get is enhanced by turning the lights off and listening either in the dark or with a blacklight.
I'm 60 and grew up with Floyd from day 1 of their journey
I envy you that your just starting your journey with them
You have a long GREAT ride ahead
69 and yes.
I’ve often wondered thru the years if Floyd would have made it as big If Syd hadn’t fried his brain. Gilmore’s style of play and writings took them in a different direction for sure.
Hmmmm
@@sudzbuddy6 Probably going to get pelters for this but I prefer their later work, after the more psychedelic early stuff.
@@simonnewby1215 Depends on the time period your refering to.
My favorite LP's go Atom Heart Mother up to The Wall and all between...
"Almost worth a quick grin" -best backhanded compliment ever, and perhaps my favorite Roger Waters/Pink Floyd line.
The album "Animals" is the 2nd most bleak, depressing, relentlessly harrowing experience you'll have with Pink Floyd, behind "The Wall"
Having said that, it's a truly amazing album.
Bleak and depressing was kinda Pink Floyd's entire shtick lol
That's because it's based on Animal Farm by George Orwell. Worth reading!
The Final Cut takes you for a ride as well
I love the solo to this. Normally Gilmour's solos feel very sad and melancholic. Maybe its just me this is one of the rare ones where I can feel this anger coming out of it. Its so cool
I've always said Pink Floyd is more than a band they're an experience
The wailing pig solo was a David Gilmour talk box guitar solo. Behind that there were a fleet of other Gilmours riffing and jamming this way and that over a shuffling and sliding David Gilmour fretless bass line. This is a brilliant Waters song performed by an orchestra of David Gilmours. Of course Nick and Rick do their thing too. Top shelf Pink Floyd
Amber hitted on the money. She got the message which is astounding to me. Amber hats off to you for understanding great music for what it means.
Dogs has to be next. It’s the best guitar work and lyrics from the entire album
Lyrics are required for Dogs.
And then follow that up with their much later release, "The Dogs of War"
Dogs my favorite song I saw this tour in Chicago they had the giant inflatable Pig flying over the audience incredible
Animals is a masterpiece best listened to from start to finish....Do Dogs next!!!! 😘❤
Yes and YES!!!
Yes!
No! 😱 Do sheep! 🐏 🐑🐏 🐑🐏 🐑 🐏 🐑 🐏 🐑🐏 🐑
@@torbjrnlund903
Bahhhh!
Agreed gotta get the full album affect.
My grin splits my face every time you guys have that light bulb go off and you completely get Pink Floyd. Your reactions are priceless. Y'all got the unity message in their lyrics pretty quickly, and it's a pleasure watching people whose natural instinct is unity at the street level against the 1%, something Pink Floyd was very into on this album and Wish You Were Here, mixed in with the 'in your own head' themes.
The guitar solo at the end of this song is amazing. One of the best guitar solo’s by David Gilmour 👍👍
I was always told to understand the meaning is to listen to their albums in the order of the tracks. They are known for getting a message across. Love Pink Floyd. 😀🎶🎸
Here's the thing about Pink Floyd, any of their songs can be enjoyed individually, but their songs are meant to be heard in their album state, as an entirety. I haven't listened to "Animals" in probably 15 years, but I think I will do that this evening. All of their albums are incredible in their own unique way...
Sheep is my favourite from this album (which follows Pigs). An analogy of the meek and down-trodden rising against the system. It has inspired moments with cross-fades between vocals and synths. Dogs is about corporate climbers and the dog eat dog, cut-throat world of big business.
Amber's reaction to The Pink Floyd is the best ever.
Oh such a deep, deep………deep hole with Pink Floyd. As you know of course
Just looking at the two of you reacting with such obvious pleasure is wonderful. I’m a relative latecomer to Floyd and every new song is a creative joy
The album should be considered as one long song and played in order. It's very deep.
absolutely
This album will take you on a JOURNEY. Records will never do that again. Appreciate it and share it with the younger folks.
The composition, the talent, the execution, and depth of their music makes them the #1 band all time. As you suggest. You don't want it to end. That's why you have to listen to them in the context of the entire album. I was fortunate to see them live 4 times between 1973/1979. Dark Side to the Wall. I've see everybody you can think of in 70s Rock. If you are looking to be consumed by the music, it's hard to argue against Floyd. Now if you're looking for endless jam ? May I recommend the Almond Brothers. ✌
Pink Floyd are truly in a class of their own, to the degree where it is difficult to compare their music to what other artists are producing. I understand why you struggle with describing their sounds. In one word, I would describe it as timeless!
Listen to this album from start to finish in order and you'll realize the GENIUS that is Pink Floyd. They're more than just on another level.
I saw this concert in Tampa Fl. and on the ticket, it said "An Evening Of Sight And Sound with Pink Floyd"!
Amber!!!! You found my favorite Pink Floyd Album!!!! Please take time and listen to it all the way through- you'll love it! & yes...as many others on this thread..."DOGS" is my absolute fave!
Animals is definitely one of those albums you have to listen to from beginning to end in one sitting. Headphones and eyes closed is the best way to experience it.
And lsd lol
Ambers right! Pink Floyd is on another level/planet ❤️
Dogs is the song that Amber really needs to hear! It is extraordinary. I'm 56 and I love y'all's channel-I watch everyday since I found your channel about five months ago!
Coolest bass solo ever.
It does this old heart good to see another generation of Floydians come to life and immerse themselves in this unique sound. I was lucky enough to grow up with them. I liked all the rock from that age, but none better than Pink Floyd. Rock on Amber and Jay.
Its so amazing to see you guys falling in love with this legendary band. The whole animals album is a masterpiece. Love when David Gilmour goes god mode at the end, his solo is so aggressive.
Nice avi,,,,🤪🤪🤪👍
Best statement ever... Amber "they are on a completely different spaceship"
The flying pink pig balloon at the concert in the 70's was awesome.
So refreshing to see Amber getting the whole of Animals from just this song.
This song is from an album that is loosely based on George Orwell's animal farm. Whitehouse refers to Mary Whitehouse, British politician.
@@dbrooks76 actually she was a teacher AND a conservative activist, But thanks for the lesson on long forgotten British subjects and the opinion on her morality :)
You two were both fabulous in this reaction. I could tell you were like myself, inhaling the music and the feeling.
My favorite band of all time, they are just above the bunch like you said, and you have just scrached the surface yet.
Dogs is my favorite track on this album
"Dogs" is the masterpiece of this album... And that's by the slimmest of margins.
Dogs, Pigs, Sheep and then the shorts in that order for me.
I feel that Peil Neart would likely agree. 😏😋😁
Dragged down by the stone!
The whole album is one song😉
Dogs is one of those epic songs that takes me away, and is always way too short!
" How do you add pig sounds to a song and it still sounds good ? " Perhaps the perfect compliment to the genius of Pink Floyd .
Pink Floyd genius Is the first thought that comes to my mind how can they do this ? It always sounds so good no matter the subject amazing !
My favorite Pink Floyd album!
I saw this concert in Philadelphia back in 1977!
The lead singer in this song is Roger Waters. Most of the other Floyd songs you have reacted to has been David Gilmour. Gilmour's voice is more melodic.
Heil talk box on the guitar solo made the pig noises. Dogs, on this same album, has one of the greatest guitar solos along with Comfortably Numb.
I saw the concert in Anaheim in 1977! It was amazing!
Jay and Amber Please check out Peter Frampton Comes Alive From 1976 , He WILL BLOW YOUR MIND , ,, You will KICK your own asses latter if you dont react Soon , He uses the Voice tube And Cowbell galore ,, REMEMBER I told you on 8 9 2021 To check Him Out ,,, I report you 2 REACT ,, Take care
I was there as well at the old Spectrum! And at JFK in 87 which, to me, was even better as they opened with Echoes! It brought a tear to my eyes!
I'm jealous. I saw The Wall in 1980 at Nassau but would have loved to see Animals.
Love those bass scales at the end. Brilliant track
"Tight lips and cold feet", also refers to the physical attributes of a pig in a farmhouse setting. So Pink Floyd was metaphorically projecting those physical parts of a pig onto the politicians who feed themselves at the trough at everyone else's expense. I love how David Gilmore shreds his guitar from the middle to the end of this song using that talk box, (yes Amber you nailed that one), in fact, the pig sounds were also used with the talk box and the voice, unparalleled.
Amber and Jordan can you please react to “Wish You Were Here” and “Hey You” Oh and definitely “Young Lust” I think you’d like the switch in sound, still very Pink Floyd though.
Yes Wish you were Here!!! Can't believe I left that off my suggestions for next.
I actually like the alternate version of young lust much better than what made it on the album.
ua-cam.com/video/1zzBOFjrF8Q/v-deo.html
Next on your Floydian Journey has to be 'Shine on you Crazy Diamond pts i-v' (basically the first track on the 'Wish you were Here Album). It's a beautiful song and a Floyd Classic.
Nah, just do the whole album!
Absolutely
Your explanation of the song's lyrics was spot on.
A whole different spaceship...
Pigs in Space...
Cowbell!!!
Wow, you two are amazing...
My brother went to see them when they were touring for this album. It was an outdoor venue and he said that during this song a giant inflatable pig rose up from behind the stage.
An inflatable pig floating around the stadium became basically a standard at thier concerts
Saw them on tour for this album too the inflatable pig blew our minds!
I remember listening to this entire album over and over again with my headphones on when I was in high school. It NEVER got old! Pink Floyd and Led Zeppelin are the two best rock bands of all time, in my opinion! Check out Dogs next!!!
“I don’t want it to be over”
… she gets it. :)
I just love you guys ... and yes!!!
Pink Floyd is just amazing!!! Always amazing!! The Wall is fantastic too!!
@Rob Squad Reactions
Amber, I can’t wait until you hear Echoes. That’s when they transcended into that other level you speak of.
Amber, you are, without question, one of the most awake, aware, and intuitive beings I've ever "met".
You are loved and appreciated for your depth of "understanding".
The Greatest band ever..
The late seventies was the best time to grow up! Killer music, Giant rock posters, even bigger stereos and girls in tube tops!......Nice!
Amber...welcome to the machine. Pink Floyd. Please!!!!
As much as you both enjoy Pink Floyd, especially Amber, the 2 of you are really doing yourself a disservice. Pink Floyd produced albums to be heard from beginning to end. They are considered concept albums. Listening to Pink Floyd tracks out of order is like watching a 6 part mini-series out of order. Their order of songs on an album is of full intent to maximize your visceral experience. Dark Side of the Moon, Wish You Were Here, Animals, Meddle, and The Wall were all produced in the same manner. To dangle a carrot, reflect on how one song makes you feel like, how did you say, anti- gravity? Imagine how you would feel listening to Dark Side of the Moon from start to finish. It will leave you thinking about it for weeks.
New to reactors, are you?
@@TroyBoyleAtheistAdvocate Err, no?? You?
Hear, hear! THIS is the prob with streaming services, especially YT... EveryTHING is monetized, the service blocks uploads that don't even break up SONGS with interruptions for the gods' sakes! One result is that the younger gens absolutely won't fully be exposed to ART, nor to its social critiques (which is great for the corporations' bottom lines!).
@@charliejonas4609 add Final Cut that many Floyd fans do not appreciate as much as I do... it is a great album even if it is more a Roger Waters first solo project where Gilmore and Mason added their parts without being singwriters
The very end of The Wall album - you hear a voice say "Isn't this where...." and it cuts off.
The very start of the album is a voice mid sentence saying "...where we came in" ;
Pink Floyd are the masters of "The Concept Album".
Amber.. “How do you add pig sounds to a song and it still sounds good?” LOL Truth! Checking for Pig bands now
They were very innovative in their music. They were the first in Quadraphonic Sound (equivalent to surround sound today). They were very experimentally forward more than any other band at the time.
Animals is one of the greatest concepts records ever and a blistering critique of capitalism based on George Orwell's Animal Farm. It should be listened from start to finish to get the meaning in full.
The whole theme of this album is brilliant. The different animals represent different sects of people that make up a society. Amber was spot on about the meaning of pigs at the end. I think you guys should check out some live performances of Pink Floyd, Pulse is a great concert.
Love this SONG! and so did my Dad before he Passed, The whole Album is Amazing!
Pink Floyd IS The Greatest Band Ever and Dark Side of the Moon is the Greatest album ever recorded, it's a masterpiece. I've seen Pink Floyd three times, the first was The Wall at the LA Sports Arena, 2/7/1980 in "Quadraphonic Sound". The Second two times was the Pulse tour at the Rose Bowl 4/17/1994 and 4/18. I've seen Roger on his solo tours four times and Dave on five of his. I've seen the Aussie Floyd seven times and been blessed to be able afford seats in the first 20 rows for all of shows mentioned. @
The White House line is not about America but about an activist in England who tried to ban all things she thought was offensive. Her name was Mary Whitehouse.
A bit like the cancel culture of today but with less teeth. Not sure about being an activist, the press used to get her opinion and then do what the press do and make a mountain out of a mole hill.
Thank you. I learned something.
That old witch
@@mwatson5702 I guess what I meant by an activist was she was very active and aggressive in trying to get rid of all things that were too liberal or progressive.
Mary Whitehouse was a campaigner in the 1960s and 1970s who complained about moral degenerecy such as pornography, bad language on TV, sex before marraige, gay media, blasphemy, and corrupting the minds of children.
Wish you were here is an amazing song that my oldest son would play around the campfire. When he went away for 5 years, that was the song we’d play when we were missing him.
Try Steely Dan Their song Do it again
Wish You Were Here has been my favorite song since I was an early teen and probably will always be. I sort of hope that changes at some point though. I'd love to be in a different enough "space" or find a new song captures the one I abide in even better.
Gotta say, it gets me a bit emotional watching these cute kids discover Floyd for the first time, and then to get totally swept off their feet by it. Amber totally gets it. Beautiful. Animals is my favourite PF album, and hit me at a very significant time of life, (if you know, you know...). Got yourselves a new sub, and I'm off to binge the rest of your channel. ❤
I love how there are cow bells and pianos....she is swaying, he is head banging...they are both right...its your mood
The songs from this album, "Animals" were inspired by the book, "Animal Farm," by George Orwell. It's an allegory about these farm animals who rebel against their human farmer, hoping to create a utopia where the animals can be equal and free. Ultimately, the rebellion is betrayed, and the farm ends up as bad as before under the rule of corrupt, greedy pigs indistinguishable from the human farmers.
The book is a must read. Generally, you read it in high school since it's a short book with some sharp social commentary.
Thematically, it's similar to another song you reacted to, The Who's "Won't Get Fooled Again." Remember the last line, "Meet the new boss, same as the old boss." A revolution can start with good intentions but ultimately, its leaders can succumb to greed and corruption.
What Pink Floyd pulls off like no other band, is lift you with a gentle hand to an ethereal suspension, holding you there while they deliver very impactful lyrics. Just to make sure they don't lose you, they throw in bursts of absolutely amazing sounds to keep you focused on their words. That's how I see it, anyway.
I have seen them four times, and I was not disappointed once, not even slightly.
You got me beat, I saw them in "88 &94" in "the horseshoe " OSU BUCKEYES stadium 🏟 Columbus Ohio and yes , best show ever.
@@BuckeyeintheSkyNews all the times I saw them,, were at RFK stadium. One of those shows we were on the field. All four shows we were trippin.....🥴
Pink Floyd's ECHOES Live at Pompeii 🇮🇹 Pt 1
A must
Amber, sister floydian, I love how you fell right into the role of a true Floyd Fan! I can see it in your heart and appreciate your love of this incredible band. I also dig how you pick up on their themes and messages so quickly. That being said, I hope you have had the opportunity to listen to the Animals album in it's entirety, but if you have not, please listen to Dogs and do a reaction video, IT WILL BLOW YOUR MIND. It is my favorite track on that album. I know you have heard that their albums should be consumed at one sitting, and that is true, they tell a story, or convey a view of our society that still rings true to this day, maybe even more so now that ever before. Anyway, so glad you both love and appreciate the incredible journey that is Pink Floyd. Peace and Love!
A must pink Floyd song to listen to is shine on you crazy diamond. One of their two best masterpieces. Has great horns in it too.
Back when these albums were new we used to just kick back and listen to the whole album start to finish
...over and over...
You nailed it Amber
One of the absolute gorgeous songs I've ever heard😊😊😊😊
