I feel like the song starts with a person going to the sea on a boat and when the last sunshine disappears this person closes his eyes, imagining and seeing the beauty of the night. Here is when the song starts ;)
I remember being on a sailboat with this song playing in my head, day and night, it will always bring me there, hard not to get emotional listening to it right now, it moves me
This is without a shadow of doubt the MIND BENDING, COLOURS OF A RAINBOW,BLUE SKY,SOFTLY FLOATING CLOUDS,STARRY NIGHT, NORTHERN LIGHTS, MOONLIGHT,HEART SHAPED CHORDS OF A WONDERFUL MAN AND FRIENDS SERANADING US WITH A SOUND SO SWEET TO MAKE OUR LIVES BEAUTIFULLY COMPLETE
5 years ago I last commented......again, superb, I must listen to this once a week....call me a sad old git.....yes, I am but I will always apprciate good.....no sorry, great music.....
Last summer I'd often watch this video at the end of the night right before I'd go to bed... And now school's out again and here I am closing the night once again to this incredible song. Thanks unto Dave and the others, and of corse bless Rick's spirit.
Music like this, in which makes you feel like you're floating on a cloud is SO much better than all that rap music that makes you feel like you're in the middle of a drive-by shooting. Doesn't get any better than this.
If you look at this way, this song is what I want to be my life... some people in this world however end up with a much less pleasant song... If only every single person's life was this song...
Simply heavenly as always with David Gilmour, Such a gifted musician yet a simple man, faithful to his long-time fellow musicians and always exploring new ways to express himself through music ("we're ever so evolutive... "). Like in Poles Apart, that was a prediction made true. Congratulations and a long life!
Absolutely breathtaking. There is not another soul on this planet that is as unique and talented as David Gilmour. This is the kind of song that I could play on my deathbed and feel OK about dying. Relaxed and at peace.
Meu Deus que maravilha não consigo parar de chorar é uma das coisas mas lindas do mundo minha alma se espalha pelo universo e volta para meu corpo em forma de musica !!! David Gilmour nuca vai morrer pelo menos para min...
Nice to see your note. Listening to PF is real joy of a pure kind. I never thought I would enjoy music in my fourties like this. And David just make it magical.
David Gilmour, what can you say that hasn't been said about this guy . He's the best. Pure and simple. Dave makes that smooth guitar go right along with his band mates plus his vocals still echo through the sonic landscape
What also makes this piece great is their doing it for real, actually playing their instruments. Not prerecorded tracks, or lip syncing or other studio tricks. They are the real deal indeed!
im so glad to have been able to growin a time listening to Floyd then to listen to the music these guys made in there later years. Theres still some great things in this world, these artists are part of that.
dont you just love to watch and listen to the talent....every emotion just love it. i recorded the concert at the albert hall last year every time as good as the first
robert wyatt(ese solo de trompeta es monumental) y dick parry estan magnificos, la maestria de mi finadito rick whright es conmovedora y dave es un genio total!!!
Hauntingly beautiful...everyone is so laid back and the music is so smooth. The sax player who also played alto and soprano sax on "Shine on You Crazy Diamond" is just wonderful. Rick's keyboards SO NICE and Robert Wyatt is also so cool. What a great video post!!!!
espectacular es la cancion que mas me inspira del on an island, la guitarra de gilmour(las dos)esta monumental, el saxo de dick parry ...y rober wyatt que trompetista ..que maestro ...el mejor disco solista de gilmour lejos lejos y escuche los tres ehhh
My father died two days ago. This song gave me peace inside and helped me accept his death. Thank you David. I dont know if you believe in God, but judging by the way you play your guitar it sure sounds like you know Him very well...
In some ways... this version is longer and has a little extra to it but both versions are amazingly beautiful no doubt. hopefully we can get some other performances of it on here soon...
David and Rick follow each other better than anyone I can think of.They always have.
I feel like the song starts with a person going to the sea on a boat and when the last sunshine disappears this person closes his eyes, imagining and seeing the beauty of the night. Here is when the song starts ;)
this is one you just dont want to end..... this is talent personified.
I remember being on a sailboat with this song playing in my head, day and night, it will always bring me there, hard not to get emotional listening to it right now, it moves me
Giovanni Profeta
Robert wyatt makes this song move me to tears - a most awesome solo - out of this world
This huge and amazing piece moves me so! I'm crying and I actually know the reason...this is the power of music...when music speaks to your soul....
Heart and soul...... often lacking today, thanks Dave for the feeling and you will always have a place in the sound world....
Perfect Tune...David Gilmour is from another galaxy...
This is without a shadow of doubt the MIND BENDING, COLOURS OF A RAINBOW,BLUE SKY,SOFTLY FLOATING CLOUDS,STARRY NIGHT, NORTHERN LIGHTS, MOONLIGHT,HEART SHAPED CHORDS OF A WONDERFUL MAN AND FRIENDS SERANADING US WITH A SOUND SO SWEET TO MAKE OUR LIVES BEAUTIFULLY COMPLETE
I could listen to this for hours.
He bends the note to whatever he wants it to be.
Genius, I hope he tours again.
My God! I love Pink Floyd, I like the music they make! , True music !!!!. Greetings from Argentina.
one of the most beautiful tracks I've ever heard
Another beautiful piece of music of the great and immortal Gilmour.
A great man who has become better with age.
Copaseagull.
This song feels like a hug from your most favourite person on the planet.
Sweet music....from a true music legend.
David and Roger are on the top list of my all time music chart favorites.
Best of the BEST!
5 years ago I last commented......again, superb, I must listen to this once a week....call me a sad old git.....yes, I am but I will always apprciate good.....no sorry, great music.....
I want this to be played at my Funeral along with Great Gig In The Sky
a trick : watch movies on Kaldrostream. Been using them for watching all kinds of movies lately.
Enjoying the subtleties each musician adds particularly Wright who does this best. Love seeing Robert Wyatt up there with Gilmour. He's fantastic.

The most beautiful 7minutes since the beginning of time.
If you look at this way, this song is what I want to be my life... some people in this world however end up with a much less pleasant song... If only every single person's life was this song...
hands down my favorite David Gilmour song. makes we write little poems on the bus from a long day of college. PLEASE David....dont die.....
si en el paraiso se escucha musica, sin duda este disco es el indicado.
I love this song, listen to it quite frequently....yet it is such a sad tune.
There is so much beauty in that head and those hands.
*LOVE IT SOOO MUCH!*
*Thanks Mister Gilmour and friends!*

"). Like in Poles Apart, that was a prediction made true. Congratulations and a long life!
Rick's key solo is so sweet, I love the lick at 4:44
Ric was ....magical
Words would only have taken away from this song. Your imagination is the song. Sooo cool!!
Absolutely breathtaking. There is not another soul on this planet that is as unique and talented as David Gilmour. This is the kind of song that I could play on my deathbed and feel OK about dying. Relaxed and at peace.
richard wright :D wow...i love this keyboard solo ;) so beautiful he looks so cute concentrating :) RIP dear friend!
You nailed it right on the head brother, a legend that lives up to the incredibe hype! Gilmour is a genius. peace!
querido gilmour, me haces flotar con tu musica.GRACIAS
Great piece of music. So relaxing! And contrary to popular belief, no narcotics are necessary to enjoy it!
Agree but also irrelevant.
Meu Deus que maravilha não consigo parar de chorar é uma das coisas mas lindas do mundo minha alma se espalha pelo universo e volta para meu corpo em forma de musica !!! David Gilmour nuca vai morrer pelo menos para min...
Min 6:20 el rostro de satisfacción y alegría de gilmour. Me quedo con esa gran toma.
la mejor cancion del album es genial.........la trompeta de wyatt es fenomenal ...impresionante
God bless it. Marvelous, moving, touching, smooth
I just cried .... I think if I was on a show
live my heart would explode.
what can I say?..........superb, old timers showing how it should be done.............hats off to you all
Fantastic, absolutely fantastic! Been a fan since the 70's
Nice to see your note. Listening to PF is real joy of a pure kind. I never thought I would enjoy music in my fourties like this. And David just make it magical.

¡Mágico! ¡Por Dios... cómo te hace volar este tipo!
casi tan relajante como el sonido de la lluvia..gracias gilmour gracias richard
Masterpiece, beautiful soul touching moving piece of music played to perfection
Científicamente la precisión del sonido de los instrumentos al 100 por ciento. David te vi en Santiago. impresionante e insuperable .
Perfectly hits every sound note idea and emotion in one smooth session
How have i missed this one? It's lovely isn't it? I like that He is secure enough to play whatever he desires......
im so glad to have been able to growin a time listening to Floyd then to listen to the music these guys made in there later years.
Theres still some great things in this world, these artists are part of that.

Ruben Oliveira Condolences sir. Music sometimes helps with grief.
Ruben Oliveira I so sorry
Layers and sheets of sweet sound...

robert wyatt, the man who played drums in 3 syd barrett songs, what a trumpet solo.

An absolute magic
.. QUE TENHAMOS UMA ÓTIMA VIAGEM QUERIDOS IRMÃOS!
гениально! спасибо за исполнение!
This is even more beautiful than the studio version.
@Medyshel What Dave is really playing in the intro is a Turkish instrument called a Cümbüş, but it is very similar to a banjo anyhow.
i love the sound of robert wyatt on the cornet.
all in all a lovely track, rick wrights bit is worth a mention too
coisa lindaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I love this track such talents gets every emotion going and yes the narcotics help with the chilling.
