"If they catch you in the back seat trying to pick her locks they're gonna send you back to Mother in a cardboard box" is one of my all time fave lyrics!!!!
Movie reaction night will never complete without you two watching the movie. It will give you the whole story, and an even bigger appreciation for the musical genius of Pink Floyd.
The Wall is about a British kid whose father was killed in WW2, and the songs in order tell the story of his childhood, being a mama's boy, ostracized in school for being imaginative and nonconforming, growing up to be a rock star, touring the United States, missing his mom, but feeling free from her at the same time, cheating on his wife who is also cheating on him, being so doped that he can't perform for his gig, so his doctor gives him different medicines that enable him to perform, he ends up losing touch with reality, withdraws inside himself, and builds a wall around himself so he won't have to deal with the things he just can't deal with anymore, so anybody who wants to interact with him personally is out of luck.
@@alleykeosheyan4779 Gilmour, Wright and Mason also partook, though not as recklessly as Barrett. The Wall probably hits home to varying degrees with nearly every British rock star of that era.
Perfect summary. NZ, back in mid-80's, our class (equivalent of UK A-level) were permitted to study this album for English instead of the issued syllabus....we were blessed each lesson with music and interpretation
comfortably numb is referring to when the singer was sick with a bad case of what i think was the flu, but the promoters gave him stimulants so he could go on stage because they didn't care for his health, only money
So, when this album came out in 1979,I was in college. Our psych professor brought in his stereo from home and we listened and analyzed the entire album for a couple weeks. It is the story of a guy who's father was killed in war and raised by his over protective mother. It follows his decent into madness and internment in a psych ward. The album is also a continuous loop !! The ending of side 4 was cut off and spliced onto the intro to the first song, so the downfall to madness can begin at any point in life. Heavy stuff. Like so many others, you really should take the time and hear it full through without interruption.
This is the last song in the Pulse concert and the live version is even more powerful than the studio version...it comes right after Comfortably Numb so it's an amazing climax to an extraordinary concert.
I don't think they know that Pink Floyd have played live and some of their recorded concerts like Pulse are astounding and bring their music to a completely remarkable level!
What I believe most listeners have missed is, the album is about growing up in a post WW2 England where fathers, teachers, police, politicians and others of authority are all victims of "shell shock" which today is known as PTSD. Having grown up in England, in the 60s, I can absolutely relate. It's not about taking drugs to understand the message within!
@@heinzspuerkel They need to do The Wall movie on their other channel. Otherwise this song makes little sense in the Pink Floyd catalogue, which is generally more psychedelic. Besides, the movie is amazing.
You guys REALLY owe it to yourselves to watch/listen to Comfortably Numb live from the Pulse concert. Widely regarded as the best guitar solo ever recorded. I’ve seen people moved to tears by David Gilmore’s playing.
So very true. I saw Pink Floyd in 1972 at Winterland in San Francisco. Best concert I've seen, both musically and visually. BTW, that concert cost me about $3.50, maybe $3.75. Great daze for concerts back then.
Pulse live a Earl's Court london England or The Delicate Sound of Thunder Tour concert my Favourite Pink Floyd's concerts and there both available on TH-cam 👍
Comfortably Numb and Run like hell live from the Pulse concert will blow your mind. I'm dying for when you do it. Trust us it's amazing I was there on that tour and the live versions blow the studio out of the water.
Pink Floyd The wall is a concept double album meant to be heard in it's entirety, because all the songs tie into each other. Glad you guys enjoyed this song!
Seconded! This album has to be experienced in its entirety. With The Who’s “Tommy” and Rush’s “2112” (& “Hemispheres”) it’s the pinnacle of the concept album (organized around a cohesive theme) where it’s a complete story. It’s such an epic introspective journey. I first heard it as a kid, but it honestly took me years to digest it. Every time I hear it I get something new out of it and it never disappoints!
I came to say the same thing, definitely has some good singles but this was an album made with a distinct purpose: to tell a story. One of my favorites of all time!!
I think the album relates more to isolationism and the fear of being abandoned. Everyone has their own take of course but after so many listens for over 40 years, I've come to the conclusion that the character Pink, is Syd Barrett
This song in the movie "Pink Floyd's The Wall" is absolutely terrifying. The main body of the song follows a gang of Pink's fascist followers (known as "Hammers") as they wreak havoc on innocent citizens. It switches back and forth between that and watching one of his "concerts", which are really just Nuremberg-style Hitlerian fascist gatherings, where the "fans" stamp their feet while doing complicated hand gestures that end in a straight-armed salute. (Notice the chant "Hammer! Hammer!" at the end of the song. They're not cheering the band - they're psyching themselves up for mayhem after the show.) It's horrifying, a thousand times more NOW than it was in 1980 when this came out. Watch the film some time - it'll freeze your blood cold.
I think this scene was modelled after Kristallnacht during world war 2. In the context of the movie I think the main character's father was killed in World War 2 and may have something to do with this scene. But then again Roger Waters has been criticized through the years for his political views. I think the scene is posted on TH-cam.
Agreed. The performance from the Pulse concert is otherworldly. The truest measure of master craftsman at the tip if the spear. It was so transformative that it made me a Floydian in every sense of the word.
It's a Beatles t-shirt but Amber even wore pink today in honour of her official status as a Floydian Forever! Great reaction you two! I don't know if you have reacted to "Us And Them" yet, but if you haven't please put it on your list!
If you ever get the chance to see Brit Floyd, a Pink Floyd tribute band, run like hell to get tickets...they are amazing! It's like seeing Pink Floyd in 1994. They're touring right now.
You'll have to check out their live version of this from the "Pulse" tour. They closed the show with this and it killed. One of the few instances I know of a live version of a song surpassing the studio version. It's available on YT.
This was the show closer on the pulse tour in ‘94 and at Earls Court,London,the explosion at the end made EVERYONE jump a foot in the air. Best show I’ve ever seen and I’ve been to hundreds and hundreds.
Everytime you dont do them live I die a little inside. You should see what is going into these sounds. The bass in this song is crazy and you have to see it.
Ahh - memories of "The Wall" concert. A mind blowing experience. This music was made to be played with a theater-in-the-round sound system. Definitely head tripping music 🎶
The first time you hear certain Pink Floyd songs they feel like they have been a part of your playlist forever already. You are sure that can't be true because you know it was the first time you heard it, but they will be on your playlist forever now.
You really need to react to the Pulse live concert version. It's the last song of the concert and they finish "with a bang". Also react to the Pulse version of Comfortably Numb as well. You won't be disappointed. Pink Floyd are known for their live shows as they incorporate lasers, pyrotechnics, and an insane amount of lighting.
Amber was Slipping Away when J stopped the play! :) A comfort to know where I can catch more Pink Floyd! Great Reaction, You Guys! :) Almost Too Short!
This song really captures the sense of urgency of both running away from a moment in time, and towards a destination all at once. Brilliant song structural emoting by a brilliant band: I never expect anything less 🔥🎸.
I remember seeing the movie "The Wall" in a small theater near a college campus back in the day...can't think of a word to describe seeing it at the time--was definitely an experience! "Comfortably Numb" will always be my favorite song but "Run Like Hell" is fantastic...Pink Floyd ROCKS!!!
They are masters at evoking certain feelings and painting pictures with the lyrics and music. Please react to Pink Floyd live at Pompeii 1971. This is simply a masterpiece!
I will never get sick of listening to the entirety of Pink Floyd albums. I really appreciate how they changed though the years. From jam band, to psychedelic space rock, to blues based progressive rock.
Thank you guys for this great reaction to an amazing track! Can't stress it enough though...you guys definitley need to listen to this entire album from start to finish! Otherwise, it's like reading a novel just picking out certain chapters. Cheers!!
“The Wall” is my favorite album of all time by any rock band. This is just a great banger and an underrated gem. I only saw Pink Floyd live once but as of today it’s still the best concert I’ve ever seen. It was such an immersive experience at the time. I’m loving y’all’s choices lately. Shine on you crazy Pink Floyd fans!
There's one scene in it too, that has music that isn't on the album. Oh, it's called Empty Spaces. It's the scene, or one of them anyway, where the wall is racing across the countryside, and you see that BMW in the wall, etc. When that extra bit really gets ramped up, which is very short, it's almost impossible to make out the lyrics without an online guide.
I bought that album when it came out when I was 12! I still have it! Every song on it is great! Babylon, Shake That Fat etc. They formed out of the ashes of Spirit. Jay Ferguson went on to do the song Thunder Island.
When he was just four, I took my oldest son to his first rock concert in 1980. It was the Floyd's The Wall tour concert at Earl's Court in London. He'd never looked so entranced as he did that night. The intro riff of Run Like Hell was the first thing he learned to play once he had his first, miniature electric guitar, three years later.
One of my first jobs was running an amusement park ride that was enclosed in a dome with lights and music. All manual, bring your own music. So every ride was a unique experience. This was my favorite song to play.
When I saw PF at the Oakland Coliseum for their Division Bell Tour aka Pulse they closed the show with this. Was epic. Was with my wife and unborn son at the time. I know he felt this show.
If you have not seen it, you guys really need to watch the movie PINK FLOYD THE WALL , it makes all these songs make a lot more sense, because the double album is a Rock Opera that tells a story of the life of a rock star from childhood to adult. There is very little dialog, the songs tell the story. It is awesome and the imagery is fantastic. Love what you guys do, as an old guy that grew up in the 70's I really like seeing y'all enjoying all these great songs from my youth.
Now sometime in the future you'll have to watch the live version from the Pulse concert!!! Pink Floyd are one of the rare bands who can take their epic studio versions and turn them into a masterpiece live! Just sayin' guys. Ray from Oklahoma 😀
At some point you guys are going to need to listen to "The Wall" in its entirety from beginning to end. They are telling a story about a guy named Pink and his relationship with the world and his Mother. Preferably vinyl as there are no breaks between songs - only from one disc to the next. 😎
The Album, Live Performances and tye Film used the art of Gerald Scarfe, whose favourite subject at the time may have been Margaret Thatcher. It's a very British theme, with all the WW2 and post war societal trauma evoked.
So was this song. There's only a couple of songs from the original album that didn't end up in the movie, and one that was written specifically for it.
NO, not Young Lust. There are hundreds of better Pink Floyd songs than that one--my least fave on the Wall album. Hey You, Mother, Goodbye Blue Sky, Comfortably Numb, Little Blackbook, Thin Ice, Waiting for the Worms, Another Brick in the Wall etc...etc.. ALL better than Young Lust.
I went on a trip with pink floyd music as a little kid because of my mom's brother when he lived with us. he had that 90s huge stereo and would play pink floyd music all the time. Brain Damage song scared me as a kid. I love Pink Floyd now I'm 36.
If I may, a suggestion. You really need to check PF out live. My suggestion...the song "Sorrow" live from the Pulse concert 1994. In my humble opinion, one of their best live performances ever. The laser light show in conjunction with the line up is unmatched. Please, please give this track your consideration. Ray
This on Pulse - Pink Floyd Live in 95 was absolutely beautiful. Great lighting sequences. or Watch the scene from the Wall movie to get Roger's vision of the lyrics.
Love when you guys do Floyd such an expansive catalog....would love to see you do some pre Dark Side tracks Childhood's End, Careful with that Axe Eugene, One of These Days, Anything from Piper at the Gates of Dawn so many good ones keep up the great work!
'Wish You Were Here' is the best Floyd album. Not one clunker. But 'The Wall' has 'Run Like Hell', 'Comfortably Numb', and 'Happiest Days of Our Lives' which are in my top 10 Floyd songs.
Of course, they have more popular songs, but this is my all-time favorite by them. Anytime you want to review a song by Pink Floyd, please feel free. If you haven't reviewed Learning to Fly, put it in the rotation. Also, you should watch the live video of this song. It's a mind blower.
Great Reaction and Feedback on this song....I feel like y'all should really consider reacting to the entire album of 'The Wall' at some point. This is one of those albums that is definitely worth a full listen.
(For a second at the beginning I thought Amber said "my fellow FLORIDIANS" and I was very confused, lol.) Another great one, loving David Gilmour's guitar and Roger's lyrics and the back-and-forth of the vocals. I'm only wondering why you haven't done "Brain Damage/Eclipse" yet? That is the *climax* of "Dark Side of the Moon", IMO the crowning jewel of that masterpiece. I feel as though I've asked for it a dozen times. Let's do it!
This was the last song in the encore for concerts on the Pulse tour; definitely check that version out! Even though PF did partake of drugs to various degrees at various times, this album is really about withdrawing into yourself so far that you start treating the outside world as full of enemies to suppress. It's more complicated than that, but you get the gist!
It was the last song in both The Division Bell and Momentary Lapse of Reason tours when I saw them. A lot of people had already left when they came back on stage when I saw them at Wembley, the people still leaving suddenly reversed themselves.
@@paulqueripel3493 Yes, I saw them on A Momentary Lapse of Reason tour, and I think The Delicate Sound of Thunder is a musically superior performance to Pulse, but I love the whole of Pulse as a show more. Peace.
I still look forward to all your video's, I enjoy watching you react to music that I listened to back in the the 60's and 70's...in my opinion, the best decades of Rock...might I suggest taking a listen/watch "Brit Floyd Live at Red Rocks" you'll get an even deeper appreciation to just how talented the "Floyd" was, plus, it's just great watching this incredible cover band do Pink Floyd, thank you for keepin this music alive. Rock ON!
Saw this flick in 1982 when it was released in the U.A. Theater, no one was there except myself and 5 friends. We were 16 years old, all ate mushrooms, then sat in different rows....they cranked the volume. Best movie I've ever seen!
I'm at a complete loss as to why you do not listen to the live version of these songs! You need to google Pulse and start listening to the live versions. Talk about missing out on something right under your noses. Just saying!
in the summer of 88 i got to see them in concert at the end of a runway in Mannheim Germany. That was one of the two absolute best concerts i’ve ever seen; flying beds, floating giant pig and all. it’s so sad that that day is gone. theo other best was at the same place in 87 seeing Genisis on their Invisible Touch tour.
I have seen every pf tour minus the first one, everyone was awesome show. I see the PF plaque i sent you guys on the wall..very cool...I hope you have had a chance to read some of the PF books I sent as well Amber....Did the kids get their star certificates framed?
"If they catch you in the back seat trying to pick her locks they're gonna send you back to Mother in a cardboard box" is one of my all time fave lyrics!!!!
It's the core issue for Pink right? The song Mother is the baseline for all the rest of the album?
Same here!
Isn't it rocks, or was the lyrics from the album changed? Locks makes more sense.
And as a teenager in 1979, I got the lyrics wrong and heard "cardboard box" as "Concord bus," which also makes sense.
will we get to see these 2 watch The Wall?
Movie reaction night will never complete without you two watching the movie. It will give you the whole story, and an even bigger appreciation for the musical genius of Pink Floyd.
From what I've heard it's really hard to find these days, but I could be wrong. I have it on DVD from way back when DVD's were new.
Yeah, I have the special edition DVD and it’s an amazing film but is hard to find and I’m pretty sure it’s never been on streaming.
@@stanmann356 The DVD & BR are available on Amazon. I just ordered one. I only have it on VHS.
Absolutely! Individual songs from the album are far from complete without the context. The film would be a great way to pull that all together.
its here on youtube
Pink Floyd is not just music, it's an experience. Edit; Amber gets it.
Well said!
Agreed! Couldn't have put it better myself! Pink Floyd is in my blood
-#cheers-- !-
👍
The Wall is about a British kid whose father was killed in WW2, and the songs in order tell the story of his childhood, being a mama's boy, ostracized in school for being imaginative and nonconforming, growing up to be a rock star, touring the United States, missing his mom, but feeling free from her at the same time, cheating on his wife who is also cheating on him, being so doped that he can't perform for his gig, so his doctor gives him different medicines that enable him to perform, he ends up losing touch with reality, withdraws inside himself, and builds a wall around himself so he won't have to deal with the things he just can't deal with anymore, so anybody who wants to interact with him personally is out of luck.
Semi-autobiographical about Roger Waters... and a little bit of Syd Barrett.
@@alleykeosheyan4779 Gilmour, Wright and Mason also partook, though not as recklessly as Barrett. The Wall probably hits home to varying degrees with nearly every British rock star of that era.
Perfect summary.
NZ, back in mid-80's, our class (equivalent of UK A-level) were permitted to study this album for English instead of the issued syllabus....we were blessed each lesson with music and interpretation
@@sweetgeorgieboy4342 Thanks Georgie🙂
comfortably numb is referring to when the singer was sick with a bad case of what i think was the flu, but the promoters gave him stimulants so he could go on stage because they didn't care for his health, only money
So, when this album came out in 1979,I was in college. Our psych professor brought in his stereo from home and we listened and analyzed the entire album for a couple weeks. It is the story of a guy who's father was killed in war and raised by his over protective mother. It follows his decent into madness and internment in a psych ward. The album is also a continuous loop !! The ending of side 4 was cut off and spliced onto the intro to the first song, so the downfall to madness can begin at any point in life. Heavy stuff. Like so many others, you really should take the time and hear it full through without interruption.
I think if they watched the movie they would understand "The Wall" much better!
It came out 50 years ago this year.But I heard it at there concert in 1975
One of the best albums of ALL TIME.
Best Musical film ever!!! The descent into madness when he melted into a cocoon and changed was incredible!!!
This album is a masterpiece that really needs to be listened to from beginning to end.👍
This is the last song in the Pulse concert and the live version is even more powerful than the studio version...it comes right after Comfortably Numb so it's an amazing climax to an extraordinary concert.
Ye Gods - their performance of "Comfortably Numb" on Pulse is mind-blowing.
I don't think they know that Pink Floyd have played live and some of their recorded concerts like Pulse are astounding and bring their music to a completely remarkable level!
Yep!
Personally I like the concert version from the original Wall tour at Earl's Court showing Roger and David playing off eachother
I was at that concert when it was filmed…what a memory… I have my ticket framed on the wall
What I believe most listeners have missed is, the album is about growing up in a post WW2 England where fathers, teachers, police, politicians and others of authority are all victims of "shell shock" which today is known as PTSD.

This song is one part of a story. If you listen to the entire album it makes sense. Great tune. Thanks for reacting to it.
true
normally Jay and Amber has to listen to the whole album
The Wall in once. like a movie
@@heinzspuerkel They need to do The Wall movie on their other channel. Otherwise this song makes little sense in the Pink Floyd catalogue, which is generally more psychedelic. Besides, the movie is amazing.

Pink Floyd on stage will leave your mind blown and you'll swear thats the best concert you've ever seen. Something you will never forget!!!
So very true. I saw Pink Floyd in 1972 at Winterland in San Francisco. Best concert I've seen, both musically and visually. BTW, that concert cost me about $3.50, maybe $3.75. Great daze for concerts back then.

That we did. I miss those days and prices.
@@sierraben Amen to that!
Pulse live a Earl's Court london England or The Delicate Sound of Thunder Tour concert my Favourite Pink Floyd's concerts and there both available on TH-cam 👍
You have to watch this song done live from the Pulse concert. Also Comfortably Numb from Pulse is a must. Best Live Guitar Solo Ever!
Comfortably Numb and Run like hell live from the Pulse concert will blow your mind. I'm dying for when you do it. Trust us it's amazing I was there on that tour and the live versions blow the studio out of the water.
Pink Floyd The wall is a concept double album meant to be heard in it's entirety, because all the songs tie into each other. Glad you guys enjoyed this song!
Now add in The Final Cut. It’s the third album. The song in the movie called When The Tigers Broke Free is from that album
This album release was momentous. An album explaining the cycle of birth to death. The movie is a must. Enjoy this album in its entirety. 🖖🏻💛
Seconded! This album has to be experienced in its entirety.

@@dancarter482 no, even he says it relates to Syd. Read the interview
When you have Pink Floyd, you don't need drugs. 😊
Yeah, but they helped! Lol
Exactly, Pink Floyd gets me stoned on the music alone🎉😅
This album is an experience.
Yall REALLY need to start checking out their live music from their Pulse Tour. I saw them in Nashville on this tour. Super fantastic.
This song in the movie "Pink Floyd's The Wall" is absolutely terrifying.

Listen to the entirety of The Wall to get a taste. Yup, that movie is something else.
Well put.
Yeah - watch the movie. It is an experience!!!
At this point it’s not even Pink Floyd it’s the band they sent in to replace them, at least in his head it’s a different band.
I think this scene was modelled after Kristallnacht during world war 2. In the context of the movie I think the main character's father was killed in World War 2 and may have something to do with this scene. But then again Roger Waters has been criticized through the years for his political views. I think the scene is posted on TH-cam.

The guitar solo at the end of Comfortably Numb at Pulse is consider by many to be the greatest guitar solo of all time
you really need to do a full album reaction on Pink Floyd to get completely immersed in the beauty of their music. much Love Blessings and Peace
I've seen this live. That bass line coming in at 114 decibels, lol! You feel it coming up from the ground as it reverberates in your gut!
If you ever get the chance to see Brit Floyd, a Pink Floyd tribute band, run like hell to get tickets...they are amazing! It's like seeing Pink Floyd in 1994. They're touring right now.
Not even close to Pink Floyd in 94 or any other year!
You'll have to check out their live version of this from the "Pulse" tour. They closed the show with this and it killed. One of the few instances I know of a live version of a song surpassing the studio version. It's available on YT.

Awesome song. Check out the live "Pulse" version. Mind blowing.
You two should check out the live version of this from the PULSE concert. It is the closer and looks and sounds great.
Pink Floyd is an experience. Listening to entire albums not just songs is what I do with them.
You need to react to the entire album!
Sorrow and Coming back to life live versions are a must!
Ahh - memories of "The Wall" concert. A mind blowing experience. This music was made to be played with a theater-in-the-round sound system. Definitely head tripping music 🎶
Love what you two do, try to catch all of your reactions
The first time you hear certain Pink Floyd songs they feel like they have been a part of your playlist forever already. You are sure that can't be true because you know it was the first time you heard it, but they will be on your playlist forever now.
You should do something from the Pulse concert. Pink Floys was sensory overload when you combined the music with the laser shows.
You really need to react to the Pulse live concert version. It's the last song of the concert and they finish "with a bang". Also react to the Pulse version of Comfortably Numb as well. You won't be disappointed. Pink Floyd are known for their live shows as they incorporate lasers, pyrotechnics, and an insane amount of lighting.

They are masters at evoking certain feelings and painting pictures with the lyrics and music. Please react to Pink Floyd live at Pompeii 1971. This is simply a masterpiece!
The song echoes is a must
Yes. Live in Pompeii part 1.
I will never get sick of listening to the entirety of Pink Floyd albums. I really appreciate how they changed though the years. From jam band, to psychedelic space rock, to blues based progressive rock.
The Wall is an excellent Pink Floyd album! My personal favourite is BRAIN DAMAGE from Dark Side Of The Moon 1973. Excellent choice and reaction!!👍👍🤟🤟
This is definitely in my top five favorite songs from Pink Floyd❤ absolutely love it!!!
This is where a live version is absolutely amazing. Pulse version of Run like Hell is primo! Cheers.

When he was just four, I took my oldest son to his first rock concert in 1980. It was the Floyd's The Wall tour concert at Earl's Court in London. He'd never looked so entranced as he did that night. The intro riff of Run Like Hell was the first thing he learned to play once he had his first, miniature electric guitar, three years later.
This album needs to be listened to in one sitting and from front to back!
One of my first jobs was running an amusement park ride that was enclosed in a dome with lights and music. All manual, bring your own music. So every ride was a unique experience. This was my favorite song to play.
Listen to the wall from beginning to end.
Would be great on their movie channel
@@DrLeadfoot1972 that and the movie
Maybe watch the movie ?
Love this album❤
When I saw PF at the Oakland Coliseum for their Division Bell Tour aka Pulse they closed the show with this. Was epic. Was with my wife and unborn son at the time. I know he felt this show.
If you have not seen it, you guys really need to watch the movie PINK FLOYD THE WALL , it makes all these songs make a lot more sense, because the double album is a Rock Opera that tells a story of the life of a rock star from childhood to adult. There is very little dialog, the songs tell the story. It is awesome and the imagery is fantastic. Love what you guys do, as an old guy that grew up in the 70's I really like seeing y'all enjoying all these great songs from my youth.
Watch the Pulse live version of this song. It's a trip. Infact that entire concert is a TRIP!!
Now sometime in the future you'll have to watch the live version from the Pulse concert!!! Pink Floyd are one of the rare bands who can take their epic studio versions and turn them into a masterpiece live! Just sayin' guys. Ray from Oklahoma 😀
As others have said, you’ll love watching the PULSE version of this song. More fun and spectacular, less ominous.
At some point you guys are going to need to listen to "The Wall" in its entirety from beginning to end. They are telling a story about a guy named Pink and his relationship with the world and his Mother. Preferably vinyl as there are no breaks between songs - only from one disc to the next. 😎
The Album, Live Performances and tye Film used the art of Gerald Scarfe, whose favourite subject at the time may have been Margaret Thatcher.
It's a very British theme, with all the WW2 and post war societal trauma evoked.
Jay & Amber, you'll love their "Young Lust"!! "Young Lust" was used in their movie 'The Wall'!!
WAIT!!!! Do "Young Lust" together with "Empty Spaces" which is a great intro connected with "Young Lust".
So was this song. There's only a couple of songs from the original album that didn't end up in the movie, and one that was written specifically for it.
Young Lust is a jam!
NO, not Young Lust. There are hundreds of better Pink Floyd songs than that one--my least fave on the Wall album. Hey You, Mother, Goodbye Blue Sky, Comfortably Numb, Little Blackbook, Thin Ice, Waiting for the Worms, Another Brick in the Wall etc...etc.. ALL better than Young Lust.
@@vaskylark and what of they have listened to all those songs already? 🤦
I saw them play this song 4x as their final encore. Quite the experience, it was like a fireworks show.
You should check out live version of this song so that David Gilmore can blow your mind with what he can do with a guitar. Legend!
Mother, live is quite the experience to.
Pulse is such a great version
I went on a trip with pink floyd music as a little kid because of my mom's brother when he lived with us. he had that 90s huge stereo and would play pink floyd music all the time. Brain Damage song scared me as a kid. I love Pink Floyd now I'm 36.
Pink Floyd takes you to a psychedelic sphere without drugs. Love to see y'all do a live stream with Pink Floyd's "Animals" Entire album is a must❤
can you imagine these 2 listening to The Wall on LSD?
“Do I hear … dogs barking.” “I do.”
I think these 2 are ready for Empty Spaces/Young Lust or One of My Turns
all songs of Pink Floyd live is an other level . treat yourself and watch Pulse concert 1994. best live show.😎👍
Amazing album. The movie is pretty trippy
You have to check the version from the Pulse concert - it doesn't so much ramp it up to 11, as ramp it up to 15
If I may, a suggestion. You really need to check PF out live. My suggestion...the song "Sorrow" live from the Pulse concert 1994. In my humble opinion, one of their best live performances ever. The laser light show in conjunction with the line up is unmatched. Please, please give this track your consideration. Ray
This on Pulse - Pink Floyd Live in 95 was absolutely beautiful. Great lighting sequences. or Watch the scene from the Wall movie to get Roger's vision of the lyrics.
I really missed Roger's passion, anguish, venom - Pulse was good, but original live performances were raw power amazing!
Love when you guys do Floyd such an expansive catalog....would love to see you do some pre Dark Side tracks Childhood's End, Careful with that Axe Eugene, One of These Days, Anything from Piper at the Gates of Dawn so many good ones keep up the great work!
I love Syd Barrett era Floyd. That would be awesome if they do one.
"See Emily Play" or "Arnold Layne"
One of These days for sure. It will blow their mind. So weird and awesome. Haunting and mysterious.
@@ssRocker-nn3tp I agree completely
This song is so awesome live from they’re Pulse concert.
'Wish You Were Here' is the best Floyd album. Not one clunker. But 'The Wall' has 'Run Like Hell', 'Comfortably Numb', and 'Happiest Days of Our Lives' which are in my top 10 Floyd songs.
Have to agree with that..."The Wall" is an extremely close second for me to "Wish You Were Here".
That is my favorite Floyd album as well!
Goodbye Blue Skies really sets the tone for the rest of the album
can you imagine these 2 listening to The Wall on LSD?
I still feel high every time I listen to Pink Floyd!😊
Wish y'all would watch them live.u r missing out.This is probably one of their best live videos!!Pulse 94!!It was the show finale and it was amazing!!
Nice one guys. Back in the 80s this was the theme music for the regional news on our local radio station.
Of course, they have more popular songs, but this is my all-time favorite by them. Anytime you want to review a song by Pink Floyd, please feel free. If you haven't reviewed Learning to Fly, put it in the rotation. Also, you should watch the live video of this song. It's a mind blower.
My favorite album growing up. Pink Floyd at their legendary best.
Great Reaction and Feedback on this song....I feel like y'all should really consider reacting to the entire album of 'The Wall' at some point. This is one of those albums that is definitely worth a full listen.
(For a second at the beginning I thought Amber said "my fellow FLORIDIANS" and I was very confused, lol.)
Another great one, loving David Gilmour's guitar and Roger's lyrics and the back-and-forth of the vocals.
I'm only wondering why you haven't done "Brain Damage/Eclipse" yet? That is the *climax* of "Dark Side of the Moon", IMO the crowning jewel of that masterpiece. I feel as though I've asked for it a dozen times. Let's do it!
This was the last song in the encore for concerts on the Pulse tour; definitely check that version out! Even though PF did partake of drugs to various degrees at various times, this album is really about withdrawing into yourself so far that you start treating the outside world as full of enemies to suppress. It's more complicated than that, but you get the gist!
It was the last song in both The Division Bell and Momentary Lapse of Reason tours when I saw them. A lot of people had already left when they came back on stage when I saw them at Wembley, the people still leaving suddenly reversed themselves.
@@paulqueripel3493 Yes, I saw them on A Momentary Lapse of Reason tour, and I think The Delicate Sound of Thunder is a musically superior performance to Pulse, but I love the whole of Pulse as a show more. Peace.
We werre trippen i have played Guitar 60 years Pink Floyd great influnce on me and my brain .
Listen to mother off of the wall album
I still look forward to all your video's, I enjoy watching you react to music that I listened to back in the the 60's and 70's...in my opinion, the best decades of Rock...might I suggest taking a listen/watch "Brit Floyd Live at Red Rocks" you'll get an even deeper appreciation to just how talented the "Floyd" was, plus, it's just great watching this incredible cover band do Pink Floyd, thank you for keepin this music alive. Rock ON!
Fearless is a deep track . Needs checking out
Jay & Amber already did a "Fearless" reaction, 4 months ago.
Saw this flick in 1982 when it was released in the U.A. Theater, no one was there except myself and 5 friends. We were 16 years old, all ate mushrooms, then sat in different rows....they cranked the volume. Best movie I've ever seen!
Hey guys. Love the channel. Have you guys checked out the movie to this album yet? It has a couple extra tracks on it and is a trip like none other.
thank you as always for reacting on Pink Floyd I'm not just going to enjoy this iconic song but also Amber's reaction as well it's always priceless
PULSE...
Pink Floyd has many great songs but if I want to get lost in a killer groove this is my favourite.
I'm at a complete loss as to why you do not listen to the live version of these songs! You need to google Pulse and start listening to the live versions. Talk about missing out on something right under your noses. Just saying!
100% agree!!
Pink Floyd Goodbye Blue Sky has become my favorite Floyd song and has never been more relevant than today
in the summer of 88 i got to see them in concert at the end of a runway in Mannheim Germany. That was one of the two absolute best concerts i’ve ever seen; flying beds, floating giant pig and all. it’s so sad that that day is gone. theo other best was at the same place in 87 seeing Genisis on their Invisible Touch tour.
I have seen every pf tour minus the first one, everyone was awesome show. I see the PF plaque i sent you guys on the wall..very cool...I hope you have had a chance to read some of the PF books I sent as well Amber....Did the kids get their star certificates framed?
You should check out the live version of this from their incredible Pulse tour.
They were masters of atmosphere and cinematic sonic effects.
