No other band has so consistently chronicled the human condition....Pink Floyd is what emotions sound like - fear, pain, lust, love, greed, remorse, inner reflection - they cover it all perfectly. There may never again be such a perfect union of talent.
You should check out papadosio I think of them as the new age pink floyd happy listening
Give "Have A Cigar" a listen to. Floyds albums have a theme and should be listened to in their entirety.
Its also the only PF song not sung by a member of the band. It was sung by Roy Harper. Same person as Led Zeppelin's "(Hat's off to) Roy Harper". Same Roy Harper that was arrested for possessing child pornography a couple of years ago...
it’s my favourite song of all time
@@krkhns I didn't know that. Thanks.
"I always had a deep respect, and I mean that most sincerely."
@@krkhns holy shit! i didn't know about his arrest and crime! omg... To be honest, I'm angry that David Gilmour didn't sing Have A Cigar... Gilmour has that strong aggressiveness in his voice when he sings and it's really sexy when he sings like that, like when he sang Money... GIlmour would have sung Have A Cigar way better than Roy Harper
The very end of this song is an elevator that goes to the top floor, and leads to talking, which is a meeting that takes place, that becomes the next song.
"Come in here dear boy, have a cigar"
come in not cone in.
You're gonna go far, you're gonna fly high, You're never gonna die, you're gonna make it if ya try, they're gonna love you.
I know Im pretty off topic but do anyone know a good place to watch new tv shows online?
I love this song. This is one of the best albums I've ever heard, by the best band I've ever had the privilege to hear.
Couldn’t have said it better,top of the pyramid
The best album to listen to on a warm summer day with a nice breeze going on. Cold beers and Wish You Were Here. Nothing better.
"What did you dream? It's alright, we told you what to dream!"
I love that line, it’s the epitome of every human born in modern society
This song, this album, and this band were the soundtrack of my childhood. I've heard these songs more times than I can count, and I love how with every review of a song like this, you find a meaning in them that I had never considered. I love you both!! 😁❤
been requesting this for evaaaa! glad you got to this
Oh sweet Lord baby Jesus. I love this song. This album my dad used to play to put me to sleep
Shine On You Crazy Diamond (the 1st suite) opens Wish You Were Here and leads into Welcome To The Machine (track 2). Then side B is Have A Cigar (track 3), Wish You Were Here (track 4) & then it ends in the loop of Shine On You Crazy Diamond (the 2nd suite).
Keep in mind this whole album is a tribute to former member Sid Barrett, and each song reflects that. Losing him to his illness but also to the "real world" of how things run in the music business.
Respect, Sori, and understood. Love the conversation.😁
The song is about the music industry and how they control artists.
I think Have A Cigar fits that description better.
@@bschuler6216 sure...but the songs are back to back on the album and seem to be dealing with the same theme...almost one song.
@@ChicagoTRS That's true.
@@bschuler6216 I think Nick Mason said the machine was the band?
@@johnhall42 Ha. Yeah, this was the beginning of the end, the slow implosion of Floyd where Waters became a tyrant and ground down the rest of the band.
Anytime your reacting to Floyd it makes my day.
They are a album band rather than the single, so my friends from across the pond,if you get time just listen to a whole album, e.g the WALL.
yes I've been wanting to see them review the Wall since I watched their DSotM videos. They would love the theme and imagery and would be interesting to see them deep dive into the lyrics and meaning along with the music.
Once you do have a cigar you'll understand the ending of Welcome to the machine. The machine is the music industry/ large corporations that grind you up and spit you out as Rodger Waters has said.
if you want a canned answer he gave it you.
first heard this song nearly 50 years ago ,it still sounds as awesome as it did then- pink floyd never made another record as great as this
Love the" Acid feeling"!! an Sori was nearly asleep.. Awesome Song ..
Your reaction is amazing....i knew this song was deep, but you took me deeper. ty
Pink floyd what can i say love en so chilled relaxing takes your mind to a whole new place nice reaction guys 👍😁
When I was in the military, my roommate tried to blow his speakers out to this song. It just so happened that that whaa-whaa was close to the resident frequency of the dorm. People were running around trying to figure out where the sound was coming from because the whole building vibrated to that, so you couldn't tell where it was coming from. It was awesome!
Thank you for your service sir!
There is a Greek song that translates "I am a part/component of your machine and my son is the replacement, I will always be at your service i am made of great material", it always reminds me of that song.
The was the most insightful associative thought process i've heard from you two.......thank you for your world view macro and micro on this
The entire Wish you were here album is basically a concept album about how the music industry treated the band. Have a cigar is the most straightforward about that. It was also for Syd barrett and how it treated him as well and somewhat of a tribute to him.
The machine = The music industry
Which flows perfectly to the next song on the album "Have a Cigar", a song that you need to react to.
Followed by "Wish You Were Here" , then "Shine on You Crazy Diamond (Parts 6-9), the final track on the album.
A great album indeed.
You are both nice kids, however quit babbling and rambling over things your audience care little about... you're not Freud or Jung
Pink Floyd do not just compose music, they compose soundscapes!
Pls react to pink floyd sorrow live pulse i belive its the most underrated song of pink floyd and not most of reactors have listened to it and of course u will not regret it
Oooh, this makes me so happy :D I'm not only glad to finally be an official Villager, but this is one of my favorite songs from one of my favorite bands, and I reference it by name in my novel Upon This Pale Hill... as the themes are quite similar :D
My personal opinion? Well it goes something like this: PF's distain for the music industry and its executives is not only based on monetary concerns, but also because the pressure placed upon the band early caused much of the degeneration of Sid Barrett. Sid did not like this pressure to produce 'singles' aka the Beatles style of music. This music shares both the distain and concern over their former band leader in the aftermath of such pressure. LOVE the Kettle drums in this!!!
I agree. These guys were not fan of the businessmen within the music industry at all. It probably started way back in the Syd days when they were criticized for being too loud, and then on when they pressured the band for a follow up single after "See Emily Play".
He had his demons, but since this album is not just about their cynical view of the business but also a lament for Syd, you can see how they would easily tie it together. I have always thought the same thing about that.
Easily my favorite Floyd album......I listen to this album as I am falling asleep...great bedtime tunes
So here is my issue with the quarantine forced home school situation: As you well know, not every kid is lucky enough to have 2 parents in the home who are both invested in their educational and emotional success. I was speaking to a 5th grade teacher in a very poor district in Tennessee and she is livid about this situation. In her words - I am the first line of defense for my students. I see the bruises, I see the malnutrition, I see the ripped clothes, I see the holes in their shoes, I know they don't have internet, some don't even have electricity! One or both parents (if the kid even has 2 parents in their life...) is addicted to meth or other substances and don't give a damn if their kid does the "bare minimum packet" the school sent home. There will be kids who will be held back - or worse, advanced without the skills they needs to do the next grade. Home schooling is wonderful - we home schooled our children until high school age, but this "forced" home schooling happening now is going to cost a lot of kids an extremely high price in present and in the future. For a lot of kids, going to school is the one place they feel safe and cared for. We all know child abuse/domestic violence rates are up due to people living in closer proximity that they are used to. A lot of misguided/idiot/inept parents are going nuts having their kids home all the time. To sum up this teacher, I would rather say "put your mask on!" 5000 times a day and have my kids back in class.
Whenever venturing into a new Pink Floyd experience remember they were a very politically anti establishment charged band with a lot of mind expanding substance influence. I find listening to the whole album brings the greater message. That's just my opinion. I do like your reactions, we differ slightly in some thoughts but that's the beauty in this. Rock on y'all.
For deep and emotional lyrics you must listen to "the gunners dream" from pink floyds the final cut album, i think you would really enjoy discussing it .
If outer space has sound, then this is what it most sound like. This band made music that was out of this world
When I hear this song, it takes me back to Northeastern University. Freshman year September to December 1984, Stetson East Dorms. Partying with George and Lou. Did a 3 day bend on shrooms. We were higher than high. It was a fun time. I did graduate in 1989 in Electrical Engineering. Life's been a trip.
This album has a lot to do with Roger "Syd" Barrett. He started the band and named it after two blues players. He did too much psychedelics, he lived at home and did his paintings. He would take a picture of the painting and destroy the original. I've read many books on this band. David Gilmour gave Syd a million dollars for the rest of his life. He passed away inn 2006.
An interesting tid bit is Syd coming into the studio as a bald fat man, no one knew it was him, until someone mentioned it was Syd. That was just bizarre. Checkout the book, A Very Irregular Head about Syd written by Rob Chapman.
Pink Floyd: The BEST band 4ever!!! ♥
Pink Floyd ..... Sorrow ... Live ... Pulse ... Mind blowing!!!
Sori! You look even more beautiful today! The hair and makeup are top notch!
I think we use more of what we learned in school than most people realize. We may not use the specific formulas, detailed historical information, etc... But, learning those things helped us develop our brains and be able to think of and understand concepts of math, science, history, cause and effect etc... They give us the foundation we need. There are also those who use a lot of what they learned on a daily basis in their chosen fields. Educate the masses and hope that many of them pursue higher education. You never know where the next Einstein or Stephen Hawking will come from.
Cracked up when i heard you guys say. Wish we could have had a little " Pink Floyd thing " later when its dark.... LOL
I believe this song is about the music industry but I think it is applicable to life in general.
Much love
Wish You Were Here 1975 is my favorite PF album. It contains the ten parts of Shine on you crazy diamond , wish you were here and Have a Cigar.
Those synthesizer notes tickle the sub-cortex of my Brain !!
WOW !!
David gilmour style is one of the best! Most of the songs you’ve been listening to were played with one acoustic and one electric (the black strat). Whey both sold at auction last year for 4 million a piece.
The Pantera intro was fantastic! Now I need to go watch all those videos again. 🤘🏼
You really believe that poorly done intro is “fantastic” ? Smh
You’ve already done a great reaction to “Shine on you Crazy Diamond,” which is also on the Wish You Were Here album. But you only listened to parts I thru V. You need to react to parts VI thru IX. It is insane, and is also on the same album.
"Wish You Were Here." At the end of the song, it sounded like an elevator going streaming upwards, to the penthouse cocktail party!
You must react to some Syd Barrett's songs for sure !!! Some suggestions : Dominoes, Dark Globe, Golden Hair, Octopus, Baby Lemonade
Exactly I agree
Jugband blues still breaks my heart 💔
I always thought that "You bought a guitar to punish your mom" line was about punishing volume. But getting into the arts instead of the more practical sciences and factory work to "punish your mom" makes a lot of sense.
I thought it was just the fact rock and roll was viewed as rebellious and something negative and buying a guitar and turning to that was a way of getting one over the parents
Probably the first “Industrial Rock” song!
6:23 - the ole' goosebump tsunami.
Would love to see you guys react to Pink Floyd's On the Turning Away
The machine is about the music business and that line about scouting for boys is executives looking for new talent to exployt.
Writing a song without using drums or percussion with this quality, is a prerogative of groups with solid knowledge of music, not to mention about deep lyrics, never predictable and common, that discuss of universal themes that are always current
industrial rock is born with pink floyd
We are waiting for Pink Floyd Echoes part 2 from live at pompeii :D
Vin im glad you consider this band one of your best bands in the world. Im 60 years old and i grew up listening to this band. They are my all time favorite band of all time. Their albums all have influential meaning to them. Roger is a genius writer with the best band members to pull all this together.. Ive listened to all their albums so many times over the decades.. My favorite album is DSOTM. I admire your comments of these songs. Some make me laugh and some make me say ok? Some make me say yes you got it. But all in all your comments are awesome to hear. Keep it up vin and sori.
I think that little dance ditty at the end was the last gasp of individuality before the machine shut it down and released them to the mob public consumer.
Sori's hair is starting to look goth af! Really sweet style. Also nice to see her feeling it again after a bit of a distracted vibe for a while. (Not a dig, I'm sure y'all have a lot going on in your life to be distracted by, but noticed it recentlyish.)
Love how you guys are evolving. Been watching for quite a few years now. Not a patreon or anything, although I feel like I should probably fix that at some point. You've been so consistently entertaining for so long. You probably deserve it.
his song pertains to their experiences with corporate control, of their finances, and artistic trajectory, they really hit this subject in the album The wall.
All those sounds come to fruition courtesy of Mr Richard Wright...
R.I.P. Rick!
Had to make sure I was watching the right thing when I seen the Pantera home video at the beginning lol
Love the Opening.. DimeBags birthday last week. Rip Dime-Vinney
Hi guys, the machine is the music industry
Welcome to The Machine & Have A Cigar are about the sharks in the recording industry. They blow sunshine up your skirts and then they bleed you dry. The sound at the end of the song was meant to represent an elevator taking "future rock star" up to the party where the execs are gladhanding each other. It's nocoincidence that the next album Animals was to be about these same people. Dogs nad I think Sheep were written at the same time as the album Wish You Were Here.
If strange and cosmic sounds are intriguing for you guys, you might want to line up "Ozric Tentacles - Sploosh!" for inspection at some point.
Dam fine record
A cold cold song that gives no warmth
Math education today is no longer all about learning how to calculate. You are correct in that a cell phone and spread sheet can do this. Math education is all about math literacy learning how to problem solve. In other word, how to think. As an Algebra teacher, I realize that many of my students will never use algebra in there everyday life, but the brain development that happens during learning algebra will be of great use to my students. In fact you are using yours as you interpret this song, as you plan your children's curriculum, and deal with the problems created by Covid 19. Learning algebra helped you do all of these things.
You are a favorite Vin. Thank you. Whoop whoop... no that is the Porsche Gilmore owns... Joking. Have a Cigar starts with the Porsche 🤣 If you could do that again...
Another 60's group that are pioneers in music often copied, but hard to match its hard to believe they been around since 1965.
Your interpretation makes sense, in and of itself. The song isn't about the education system, but, it would be hard to argue your interpretation. Especially if you fast forward to 1979, with "The Wall."
Specifically, "Another Brick in the Wall." (We Don't Need No Education.)
That last siren probably was meant to represent the 5:00 hour. The machine is the system.
Fantastic reaction guys pink floyd all time fav band please react to on the turning away live
there is almost always a micro and macro in most pink floyd songs. while this song fits within the conceptual motif of the album concerning the record industry and their estranged former leader Syd, it can certainly be about almost any profession and the often merciless corporate mindset that controls it, and sucks in and suffocates the unsuspecting.
Vin, you have the left and right channel inverted on your headphones. I could see that when you pointed the left-right sounds over your ears at 5:55 on this video. (Assuming you pointed them to the correct timing, of course...)
Take a Big look, this is your,"Machine"
You NEED to check out the Live version of this from Roger Water's "Us and Them" tour, 2019 I think. THAT will blow your minds!
Probably SHOULD do a first reaction to the whole damn album...
Rip to the best pianist out there
Yes. We told you what to dream. Now check out Oliver Cheatham - Get Down Saturday Night. ❤️🎺
love you both! will start off by saying of course to each their own as far as drawing a conclusion to what each song means to them. But as I'm sure it has been said here many times before is certain bands and albums are best to experience as a whole. I believe meant to be at least at first listened to from start to finish. Maybe it's just me, who knows. You both are very intelligent and I enjoy hearing what immediately follows the song. Thanks
“Sounds like a fear factory song, like the beginning of one.” Oh my friend, how you are in for a surprise.
We are all in the machine, job, car, mortgage…
Like most Pink Floyd albums, you have to listen to the whole album in one thread... many many times to really get it / appreciate it fully! You are lucky, man; your girlfriend is pretty smart... good for you ! ;-)
Awesome song! The machine noises used to scare me as a child🤘
Hear, hear to your analysis on the educational system
Sori's reaction 👌🏽
React to Shadows fall cover of this song, it is one the best covers i have heard!
Her idea = YES PULSE Live cd set....best for this idea imo.
I will die un peace if you react to the whole "the wall" álbum. Im sure it will blow your minds and you'll have much to talk about! Pls!
Blew my fucking eardrums out at the intro lol
Shine on you crazy diamond & Welcome tone machine. Was originally going together as one song.
Richard Wright RIP what a genius
All Pink Floyd songs speak for themselves, and IMO do not need context to enjoy1 Enjoy!
1975 Roger Waters wrote this song and today in 2024 we relate to it this is one of my favorite Pink Floyd song of all time. Masterpiece
Pretty much spot on as usual. This song and Have a Cigar (song immediately afterward) were about the record industry and how they pretty much are out to screw over anyone to make a buck. The other songs on this album were Shine on You crazy Diamond (first and last section of the album) and Wish You Were Here which were inspired by Syd Barrett.
song is about syd barrett, and him slowly losing his mind to the machine,,, a reference to 'one flew over the coocoo's nest', i believe...
Talking Heads - Listening Wind
Lets continue with great music )
Sorry Vin......Excel doesn't calculate my engineering career. As a structural engineer, mastering a T-84 calculator goes a long way. And to do that, you need to know how to do those formulas on paper. The calculator just makes it faster. The same applies to water treatment, computer science, biological sciences and everything else we take for granted.
This songs is being sung from the music industry's point of view. How they welcome you in bleed you dry and discard you like yesterday's trash...
My favorite too
