I see you guys talking about the order of songs in this discography what's your best advice on where to start?
I don't know man I mean I do like Pink Floyd but it's a mood don't really know if I'd want to see a w h o l e bunch of reactions but we all have different tastes I'll tune in
This whole album tells a story, so you need to listen to it from start to finish. It's a story about a kid who grows up to be a rock star. They even made a movie out of this album.
Trying to listen to the songs out of order won't make any sense.
In this song he recently had an episode where he's no longer fully in touch with reality, [he's locked within the walls (the title of the album) of his own mind] he can hear people talking but can't make out what they are saying. That's why the 'Hey You' title, he doesn't know who is trying to help him.
Its meant to be listened to in as a sequential part of the entire
album. Listening to it alone, it can be heard out of context.
While The Wall has some very notable singles (understatement), like much of Pink Floyd's 70's era catalog, its a concept album from start to finish, and meant to be listened to in the order its presented in.
I always recommend starting at the beginning.
The Pink Floyd albums tend to be listened from start to finish on one go, but the The Wall album imo needs the movie for you to understand what its all about. Trying to dissect the lyrics without the movie will have you going in circles, just watch the movie.
"that guitar sounds like its crying" yeah bro, that`s the magic of Gilmour
True. That’s why so many of us love him.
Everyone screams for help, but not everyone is heard.
The first thing you have to realize about Pink Floyd music is that it's not ' groove ' to music and tap your head to the beat like most other music . It's more of sit back and listen and let it take you wherever it goes.
smonin a fatty chillin
Are you ready for this rabbit hole? It's deep.
The Wall is a concept lp. Would love to see you do the entire lp. Definitely would bring light to the lyrics for you.
With Floyd it's generally the studio version that is the most intense and deep. Seeing their live stuff is interesting but it doesn't have the same feel as their polished product.
I'd definitely agree with you that the studio versions of Pink Floyd songs are the best versions (after 1972 anyway) but their later live shows were the most amazing, spectacular shows I've ever experienced. The inflatables, the absolutely giant disco ball, the biggest laser in the world, the Spitfire flying over the audience and crashing into the stage - totally unmatched anywhere by anything!
The wall is what we all build in our life
This is Pink (main, rock star, character of the album/movie, reaching out to anyone who will listen and make a connection and have hope. But the wall of seclusion and apathy he built was too strong for the connections. An epic, operatic album. You should review the movie!
Excellent and accurate breakdown.
Pink is real
When Geldoff shaves off his eyebrows. I do not know why but that always gives me the heebie jeebies
Snapping the blade... oh man, now I got the heebie jeebies.
Yes to understand this album truly is too watch the whole movie.
More FLOYD!
At this point in the story, the main character has used all the trauma in his life to build a "wall" of isolation around himself. Hey you is the main character calling out to anyone outside his wall, for help.
"Woms ate into his brain " is a reference to going crazy
Calling out for help to those doing what they're told is a proven exercise in futility
Why do you say that?
@@philcannistraci9560 12 NY jurors
When this came out I would listen to this front to back with headphones LOUD.
The Movie is a MUST watch for you now if you want the entire story. (You won't need drugs but it won't hurt)
Happy belated 4/20+
You need to watch the Pink Floyd movie, "The Wall", my Man.
I love the guitar solo in this masterpiece !! It really sets the mood for the song and the album in my opinion….
Awesome I didn't know you ever did any Pink Floyd I'm going to check it out I love the song I Wish You Were Here
Pink Floyd is about listening to the music in mild contemplation and taking the trip
Not every song has to have a meaning, sometimes u just feel the artistry and enjoy it.
You can ONLY understand the lyrics by, listening to the Album COMPLETELY. The Wall is a story about a Rock Star named PINK, building a wall of seclusion. The film helps to explain more.
He's speaking to himself. He's behind his imaginary wall and sees himself still on the outside. He still harbors some hope of escape and is calling to his own image of himself for help.
The "mosquitoes" sound was made by recording a medical saw and drill being used on an unspecified substance... It adds so much to this song
YAY **Pink Floyd** is the other band i started listening to when i started listening to **MyBelovedOtherWorldlyLedZeppelin** when i was 8 yrs old & man these are the ONLY two Bands that can consistently put me in a **Trance** out of ALL the other bands i truly truly luv & some of their songs can put me in that kinda **Trance** BUT not consistently like **Pink Floyd** & **Led Zeppelin** to me they are the MOST **MagicalGenius** bands EVER!!! both just **Out Of This World** indeed **Sigh** such **Gifts**
Reviewing one Pink Floyd song from this album is like reviewing only chapter three of Moby Dick and coming away with more questions than answers - The Wall is a story told through a series of songs meant to be consumed in order.
Absolutely
Think about an Emotional wall that protects you from others seeing your feelings
always - for me - studio versions for a first listen
Meant to be listened ln order. 1 2 3 etc..Earlier songs referenced in later songs etc. Enjoy.
Watch the movie repeatedly in different states of mind. You'll get everything.
Gilmores genius. No other has phrasing’s like His. No replacement possible.
You have to listen to the whole album beginning to end to have it make sense. Awesome! You won't be sorry.
You should watch “The Wall” by Pink Floyd.
I would like to mention (with life experience guiding me lol)...that Pink Floyd's music isn't for lyrical breakdowns or general understanding. THIS ALBUM IN PARTICULAR had (and has) audiences questioning what the world around us had in store...as seen through the eyes of "Pink". A Rock Star revealing his TRUTH and understanding of the political and socio economic times. (they are a British band btw) And for those who weren't so concerned with all of that business...ITS FKN LEGENDARY GUITAR SOLOS and CUTTING EDGE productions and sounds....were groundbreaking and they sold out arena size concerts AROUND THE WORLD.
I saved my money to buy the album when released in my town. I knew EVERY WORD and EVERY SOUND of this double vinyl album by the end of that summer. Its forever in my heart. Thanks for listening.
OMG the movie is brilliant and I think you will dig it! This is the music that I loved and which shaped me in many ways as a musician and even just in life.
The song is from a concept album about a rock star who becomes socially isolated behind a metaphorical wall, resulting basically from childhood trauma. The meaning of "Hey You" represents his futile attempts to reach out to a stranger from behind his wall. After the line "and the worms ate into his brain", the sound that you described as being like mosquitos was actually meant to be blowflies, the maggots of which are the "worms" eating into his brain.
The Wall is a rock opera, so it needs to be listened to from start to finish to understand the story. Like an audiobook. There's also a film. It's partially a tribute to the band's founder, Syd Barrett.
Had to tune in on this one...nice! Worms are everywhere today...
Great song.
You'd have to see the original and Roger Watters The Wall to understand the meaning. Roger's family had lost generations of fathers in his family due to wars.
You need the WHOLE perspective. It’s a journey with Pink Floyd. They’re always going somewhere and it’s very good. Didn’t hurt we were all on LSD back in the day when this first came out. The 80’s were amazing and Pink Floyd was right there tonsils through it.
The 80s Pink Floyd formed in 65 or 66 I believe they've been around a long time by the 80s
This is an anthem album, much like 2112. Tells a story. Best to study the entire sandwich. One bite doesn't reflect on the chef.
"Julia Dream" and "See Emily Play" a couple tracks released back in the earlier days of 'Floyd' from 1967\68 are enveloped in psychedelia. "Remember a Day" a 1968 international hit by 'Pink Floyd' is a psychedelic instrumental masterpiece.😂😂😂
Wot’s… Uh the Deal
This was off the wall album. It illustrates a young rock star named Pink. And trying valiantly to get back into society. Pink Floyd always surprises you especially with power ballads like this one. As usual David Gilmour is mesmerizing with his vocals and his omnipresent guitar riffs. Anything that Floyd does is masterful.
Well I was going to comment but you said it all my friend
Listen to dark side of the moon albumn for pink Floyd. Great all time classic
I bought the album as soon as it was released. Let's see I'm 65 from New York and I probably have worn vinyl album out. So yeah, very familiar with all of Floyd's releases.
Gilmour only sings the first part of the song. The rest is sung by Waters.
Hmm, you really needed to tell me that? Do you assume that I'm that uninformed?
The whole album is concept album, actually i would categorize as a concept band who make concept albums the wall was the first album in history to have a actual movie with actors the movie explains so much more
Put both headphones on properly. This is Pink Floyd man. You need to hear the dynamics. They're known for their dynamics in their recordings
Take an evening on your own and watch the movie. You will understand the story through the songs.
You gotta listen to the whole album straight through
I remember listening to this tripping on acid laying on floor pillows smoking opium this is the chill music❤
I copy and pasted this.. i searched 'The story beind "The Wall"
A personal story from 1979 draws on Roger Waters' own life. It tells of the loneliness of a rock singer, struggling to deal with the death of his father. The work is largely biographical as Waters' own father died in World War II.
Pink Floyd is the # 2 selling around the world and they were done in 1994. Dark Side of the Moon is the # 2 selling around the world and on the charts for 948 wks. nobody come close to that.
Hi if you haven't listened to their song money....as profound as this one, with a killer sax solo.
They have the Pulse concert on disc's. I was at that concert here in The Corporate States of America. Amazing. Nothing like it. 66 years old and the best concert I've ever attended.
Aqui Maricá RJ Brasil. Só vi pelo dvd (lembra de LP, cassete, VHS,?
Pulse é fantástico e confortably numb arrasadora
"The worms ate into his brain", worms = bad and evil thoughts. As the album progresses these thoughts become more evil and more dominant.
Keep up the good work 👍
With the greatest respect, albums such as The Wall are not called ‘concept’ albums for no reason. They tell a story. A huge amount of effort goes into the whole package. Everything from the cover art to the lyrics, the production and the sequence of tracks are all part of the deal. Taking a track out of context would be the same as taking a scene from a play and trying to make sense of that. To fully understand what the band are trying to portray one needs to start from the beginning of side one and play the whole thing in order, and then do it again. Eventually the story will unfold and there would be no need to question what the lyrics are trying to convey.
Hey Mugs. in 1972 when I turned 14, my friends gots me the Dark Side of the Moon album for my bday and Ive been a PF fan ever since. The Wall album is about the wall a person builds around himself to keep himself from getting hurt. So his daddy died in the war, his mama helped him build the wall, The teachers at school told him his poetry was rubbish in front of all the class, his wife cheated on him and so on and so on and everything that happens to him he puts another brick in the wall...so eventually he finds himself alone inside his own wall...now you can understand the words from hey you ...he is trying to reach out to others but his own wall is too high thus the words it was only fantasy, the wall was too high as you can see, no matter how he tried he could not break free... You have to hear the whole album from beginning to end... its a freaking masterpiece. MORE FLOYD!
He’s hollering silently at other people from behind “the wall” he built around himself in his head, trying to get himself some help to break free of what he has become
You have to listen to this album/story from song 1 and follow one after the other. You can watch the Movie titled same as the album. It would help you understand.
This is actually from a movie that they did that is a fairly psychedelic trip.
The album came before the movie.
This song is again about a young rock star aka Pink building a wall of isolationism around him while trying to reconnect with society. The worms ate into his brain. Good stuff.
hey M, you have to do Pink Floyd's, Pig's (three different ones) from their Animals LP you'll dig it, trust me..
Watch the movie The Wall. It’s a trip. Seriously, no drugs while watching The Wall, you may not come back.
It is a cry for help. The song comes from Pink Floyd's double album masterpiece "The Wall". It is a concept album that tells the story of a rockstar going slowly insane and losing touch with reality. Building a metaphorical wall between himself and the rest of the world. This is his last cry for help before losing his final grip. Very intense and dark album. To fully appreciate it you must hear it within the context of the album. This song comes in about 2/3 into the tragic story of Pink.
Nice job. Always try to do the studio versions first for the full sonic and lyrical experience. 👍
This is just one small part of the story of The Wall, the story of a Rock Star who struggles with life and feels separated from his fans, and he eventually goes insane.
Insanity is a subject that Pink Floyd refers to on many songs and albums, stemming from one of the four co-founders and frontman of Pink Floyd in 1964, Syd Barrett.
Syd Barrett lost his mind from a massive abuse of LSD and other mind-altering drugs that may have led to his debilitating psychosis. Four years later in 1968 Barrett completely unable to function as a person and was forced to leave Pink Floyd.
David Gilmour, a good friend of the band and Barrett, replaced Syd in Pink Floyd that same year, 1968. He has been with the band ever since.
The best way to understand this album is to watch the movie.
... And the best way to see it is with a big, fat blount!
But watch out, this movie will melt your brain!
🤘🤪😵💫
The import of "Hey You" really takes some understanding of the whole Pink Floyd discography and "The Wall" in particular. This song has a stand alone quality which is why Waters conceded to Bob Ezrin in moving this track to the beginning of Side 3 of the album. In that way it is easy to find as a single play. And "Comfortably Numb" is a good Side 3 closer. But, here it loses its meaning. Originally, it was placed after "Comfortably Numb" as the last song on Side 3. So, in short here is what is happening. Pink, the main character of the album has supposedly isolated himself off from the outside world both physically and mentally. So by the beginning of Side 3 Pink is all comfortable in his isolation as his brain wanders through different TV shows of his past. Lurking in the back of his mind is his former life as a rock 'n' roll musician (we are channeling Syd Barrett here). A part of his mind wants to free itself from the isolation and enjoy that energy of the stage. His mind conjures up a doctor's visit who gives him some medication to snap out of his lethargy and prepare him to take the stage once again. That's where "Comfortably Numb" ends. "Hey You" is Pink's awakened mind trying to connect with the audience on a personal level before the show where he will metaphorically spit on the audience. Waters is reflecting on his own encounter with the audience in Montreal during the Animals album "In The Flesh Tour". An incident that led to his writing of this album. And an incident that after the fact truly horrified him. Would the audience forgive him and help him carry the burden of that stone around his neck. The stone that would otherwise drown him. This is a direct reference to the song "Dogs" on the "Animals" album. When the burden of taking care of a dog outweighs its usefulness it is simply drowned. Being useless, a rope is attached to a stone around the dogs neck and it is drowned in the nearest river. That's what is going on here and Roger sings that last refrain.
The Wall album version is best for first time listening to Floyd.
The Wallace a concept album. Listening out of order will leave you confused.
It's like reading a chapter in the middle of a great novel there is no context.
It's your experience. But I'm sure if you listen do the whole album like we all did from beginning to end you'll enjoy and understand it much more.
Attended the Wall concert.
Throughout the whole performance they built a large 30 ft tall wall between the stage and the audience.
They also had boys chorus, mixed course, Orchestra.
And each had their own director. It was the largest production of any concert at the time and probably since.
Also seeing the concerts

The Wall
Momentary Lapse of Reason ( twice)
🚜🤠🐂
Roger Waters (bass & vocals) wrote 'The Wall' in 1979 about his own isolation from his band members... his loved ones... his fans... He felt disconnected from everything that should have mattered to him ("The Wall" is a metaphor for something he built to isolate himself from everyone) ... It was fair to say that Roger Waters between 1976 to 1986 was a very difficult personality to work with.
At the time Waters wrote 'The Wall' ... he wondered about his past and how it shaped the person he became... Being raised without a father (who was killed in Worl War II) by single mom in post-War England... His mom being a very controlling personality... His childhood in Cambridge, going to school and teachers who were supposed to educate them were more interested in making their students as cynical as they were... His friendship w/ Syd Barrett, who would form the Pink Floyd w/ Waters and inspired him to be a musician & songwriter, but he lost Barrett to mental illness and carried on w/ Pink Floyd without him... Waters struggled w/ fame and the more successful Pink Floyd became, the more he seemed to hate it and was known to berate audiences when Pink Floyd performed in concert.
All these factors were part of 'The Wall'...
Pink Floyd made a movie 'The Wall' inspired by the record - it was a rather surreal & disturbing depiction of a fictional rock star named 'Pink' who descends into madness at the height of his career and becomes a very totalitarian public figure.
To understand the story or concept you would need to listen from start to finish - “Hey You” is the middle of the story
The only way you can truly understand this is to smoke all the weed you have, grab a box of Lucky Charms and space out. 😊
It's hard to grasp what the song is truly about because it's one chapter of an entire story of a concept album. Most Pink Floyd albums are concept albums and are best listened to in their entirety.
If Pink Floyd doesn't move you deep down inside...then you are probably dead.
this is fictional Rock Star Mr Pink Floyd and side into mental isolation and eventual insanity
The album covers Pinks life and is a mixture of real life Roger Waters Syd Barrett and quite a bit of fiction.
For example Rogers Waters father was killed in WW2 while Roger was just a baby but Rogers mother was not the super over protective Mother described in the album. Syd Barrett mental health issues on the other hand are definitely included and expanded.
Watch the movie for better understanding. Like your stuff.
The Wall is a concept LP and some songs have meanings that are lost on their own , you have to hear the whole LP to be honest . This is about solitude and the start of a mental breakdown
This is a concept album that tells the story of the bass player, Roger Waters' life.
Actually, I believe the album is about the original singer, Syd Barrett. That dude did way too much acid, & he went crazy...
@@mojoriot2293 It's 'based' on Roger's life. His father was killed in WWII as a member of the Royal Air Force. The beginning of the album is Roger growing up without his father and what he perceived to be an overbearing mother. The second part, this part, is more his imagination of what his, "Pink's", life has turned into.
As far as I know, neither Roger nor Syd busted through a hotel window and plunged multiple stories into the pool. But it is possible I guess 😂😂
Some of their albums, like Wish You Were Here, were about Syd.
S hine on Y ou crazy D iamond✌
Yeah, I remember seeing a documentary about them & about The Wall with some things that you mentioned.
I also saw a doc about Syd, on the same day, I believe.
I'm getting old , man
My words don't come out right, & worse, my mind is getting... off.
Even my wife has had to deal with it. Sometimes, we joke about her having to play a guessing game just to figure out what I'm trying to say.
So, you're (probably) right. Lol...
I haven't looked it up, but I'm gonna go with my faulty brain & believe you.
I can only blame it on my getting older...
That, and maybe a bit of 40+ years of smoking weed...
What were talking about?! Lol.
Sorry for the confusion, meaning mine own, that is.
My bad. 🤘😎
Rock On, borther.
Pink Floyd is a combination character based on multiple people. Infact, the name Pink Floyd comes from two Carolina bluesmen, Pink Anderson and Floyd Council so even the band's name itself is a combination of multiple people
@@neilpatrickhairless
I guess that's why they call it a 'BAND'.
🤘🤪
Hopefully you can watch the Wall movie.
Okay I think my old ass figured out to buy me a coffee I saw confetti. I hope I did it right I hope that's how you watch you react to a song. How will I know what day reviewing the
Characterizing the psychotrauma he sustained in his attempt to rejoin society.
Not gonna really feel the weight of this song without listening to side 1 and 2 leading up to this side 3 opener. This album takes many listens to understand how each individual song fits and builds upon what preceded it. K?
A song about loneliness or sense of social isolation.
Seriously Dude, you must listen to this album in it's entirety. Just buy it on vinyl, and a turntable if necessary. The new one are easy to integrate. Play all 4 sides and react whilst reading along with the lyric sheet
They're tripping balls mugs you're not going to find much meaning a lot of places😂😂
Man, the people recommending you to react to certain Pink Floyd songs, especially stuff from “The Wall,” knowing that you’re going to try to analyze and interpret the meaning of the song, should give you a heads up that these songs are part of a double album length (4 lp sides) concept and you will miss a lot of context and call backs if you’re not listening in order. That said, there are a number of songs on the album that work fine as standalone tracks.
I have to be more consistent with Pink Floyd to be able to remember those call backs
This is an album that needs to be listened to straight through. Picking any one song to listen to won't give it the full context.
Man, it's not really possible to understand the meaning of the individual tracks on this album. The whole album is an epic - the story of the boy Pink, from his early youth to adulthood. The songs build on each other not only musically but mainly in terms of meaning. To pick out one track is just a mess for anyone unfamiliar. This album is a MUST(!) to listen to in its entirety and then it is only possible to understand this epic work.
The Wall is really the life story of Roger Waters up to the time of writing......using the pseudonym of Pink as the main character, himself .
Life was hard for Roger .....he lost his father at Anzio, WW2 when only 5 months old.
After the war, poor widows with children were treated as sub human in England....considered an unwanted pestilence by government and the affluent.
Roger built a mental wall around himself to protect himself from the outside..... government, religion, a hostile society, vicious controlling school teachers and even his own over protective mother.
To Roger, life and all the above built a wall around him, to trap and enslave him, tell him what to do, enslave him .
Hey You is Roger connecting with us.....asking us to unite with him to break free.
Asking us to join him in the fight to achieve our freedom from dictators who order us to conform to their own dictatorial beliefs and lies.

Listen to the album as it's a masterpiece, but I would avoid the movie despite the many who will call for you to watch it. The album is all you need.
it's hard to interpret any of the songs on 'the Wall' outside the context of the album, listen to the album beginning to end.
Here is something that will help you with your struggle to understand Pink Floyd lyrics.
You see,... Pink Floyd doesn't make songs. They make albums. You listening to one song is like reading chapter 12 in a novel. Sure, you can make out the words. Understand the sentences. But without reading the rest of the book, you have no idea what the context is.
Get it?
Bingo
If you really want to know about this song see the movie and don't watch the movie with chemical enhancement
My understanding is Roger Waters was dissatisfied with his audience and would prefer to perform with a "wall" between them.
Each song from this album is a part of the bigger picture. Trying to understand each one individually is pointless. Watch the film dude.
Don't focus on the lyrics with Floyd, it's the music that takes you away.
Dont try to analyze Floyd lyrics if you're not stoned. 😁
That's not the meaning of this song. But take it as you will.
Yeah, no point in trying to understand... the lyrics are out of context from the story.
The lyrics are about Roger Waters, the bassist, losing his bloody mind! It is clearly evident that it is a fact that he lost it considering how he left the band and bc of his continued feud with the remaining band members.
Shame you react while the track is playing. You can't really choose a concept album and take some of it out of context.
It’s called a “Reaction”
The Wall is a concept lp. Would love to see you do the entire lp. Definitely would bring light to the lyrics for you.
As others in the comments have said...just get the movie The Wall and it will make way more sense. This is a concept album about a rockstar named Pink.
