Entire Pink floyd albums needs to be listen to,because one song blends into another and tells a story. Start with Dark side of the moon which holds the record for staying on the billboard charts like 20 years.
A tough album to pick singles from to listen too. It really is better to experience it all in one sitting. Roger Water's semi-autobiographical depiction of a rock star who is the product of over-bearing mother and authority figures (teachers) and builds an emotional "wall" to protect him from emotions and the associated pain. In the end he is forced to tear down the wall and expose himself. The poem was actually lyrics from their song "Money" from the Dark Side of the Moon album.
@@knowsomething9384 Completely agree. Live versions are cool for people who already know the song, but first listens need to be album versions. Everything is tweaked and worked on to sound exactly how the band intended.
@@johnnyjohnny-cg7np 100% agree. The way we heard it on the radio and when we bought the album was what made it so important at the time and buy only going for the live version, oftentimes perform two years and years after the fact and not even the same band members sometimes, you just totally missed the whole vibe in the culture of the time and why they became so big to start with. Or why a particular song is so beloved to start with. And plus the Fidelity is almost always way better and you can hear exactly what the band intended you to hear and why it became a hit. And then if you love it that much, then go back and watch a live version to get that visual input.
Don’t care about the tune education police, people who like to enjoy David Gilmore’s solos without any interruption, should not watch reaction videos. Just remember, it’s your channel and you can react however you want to react.
The band was named in honor of two older black blues musicians from North Carolina, PINK Anderson and FLOYD Council. It was to signify their desire to be a "BLUES" band. FYI.
That was Bob Geldof at the end. This is from a movie "The Wall" and also a double album of the same name. Bob Geldof played the title role in the movie. Bob was also the lead singer for a band called The Boomtown Rats and co-founded Band-Aid which you probably have heard of and if you haven't, I wouldn't mind seeing you react to Queen's performance at Live-Aid. Pretty much considered to be the best live rock performance of all time.
Rarely have I seen an American reaction to this where the meaning is appreciated or understood. You are intuitive and have the ability to look outside the box. 👍🇬🇧
I am completely in shock that you do not know who one of the most iconic bands in history is. WOW. To see Pink Floyd live should be a must for everyone, they are incredible. Dark side of the moon is the best rock album ever produced imo.
Hey Britt, this track came out whilst I was at school and the teachers at the time hated it. I remember going on a geography field trip and the whole bus singing it throughout most of the journey. Great work as usual, give Pink Floyds 'money' a listen to. This was the poem the teacher in this clip was referring to.
The whole album needs to listened to. It's really a story. A story of drugs, depression, isolation. The Wall is one of the greatest works in rock history.
Saw them in concert. The Best. Grab some popcorn with a big TV with an Amazing sound system and watch the entire Pick Floyd the Wall in Berlin. Best ever! Enjoy!
This video is from the movie made of Pink Floyd's album The Wall. The guy in the picture at the end is Bob Geldoff, who was behind the movie. I'm pretty sure that Geldoff was the one that put together the Live Aid concert in the 80's (if you haven't seen it yet, Queen's performance was amazing).
Pink Floyd is one of the greatest bands to ever grace us with their genius. Their music still holds up as social commentary (since socially and politically nothing has changed in 50 years, not for the better anyway) and they are very talented poets and musicians. This is a deep catalog to dig into. Others have suggested some good ones but Comfortably Numb - Pulse Live, High Hopes - Pulse Live, and Time are all great places to start. But keep in mind, Pink Floyd wrote albums, not songs (once Syd was gone anyway - which is the version of the band most people are familiar with). Their albums were meant to be listened to as a complete story. Hard to do on here as a reaction, I know, but worth it on your own for sure.
Pink Floyd has THE best audio of any concert I have ever been too. They use Quadraphonic sound. The PA system is in the front, the upper sides and the back. I saw them in ASU stadium. We were on the floor waiting for the show to start and at one point they played the sound of a helicopter and it sound like it flew all around us then buzzed our heads, it was crazy.
As a teacher in training, I was taught not to use sarcasm until a student was old enough to appreciate it. "No dark sarcasm in the classroom" is definitely true.
The poem the teacher reads out loud are lyrics from Money, a Pink Floyd song. The picture at the end is of Bob Geldof of the Boomtown Rats and the force behind the Live Aid benefit concerts. Geldof plays the lead in the movie The Wall.
I homeschool my kids we have since preschool but we unschool, its complete child led learning, my kids have 100% freedom with their education....my 12 year old is set to graduate highschool by 14. Its amazing what kids can do when they are given true freedom to think for themselves.
Yes, you are correct for the part about Pink Floyd's another brick in the wall and its message. They were trying to tell you about things like CRT of it's time....that is going on today.! Good catch Britt!
Pink Floyd the wall is more than a video of one song, It's and entire move that is paired with a double album set. The entire album is about tearing down the walls.
Britt... There is a point to this music when heard in it's entirety. Many post WWII schools not only taught, they molded. There was a cultural revolution goin' on and these were changing times ...it was reflected in the music.
Pink Floyd is a whole different level of listening... they thrived of bending the mind. They are brilliant and thought provoking. They tell stories and like to rebel... lol. enjoy, its volumes of world renowned brilliance.
That video reflects on teachers and schools in the 1950s to 1970s . I had a teacher who once decided to hit me for talking in class . My gran who raised noticed the mark on my leg so to my surprise and the teacher's surprise she waited for him to come out of school and I had no more trouble
Britt, Love ya but your honestly killing me, how is it possible to not know literally one of the top 3 most influential rock bands in the history of the world?????
This video is from the movie "Pink Floyd - The Wall", and the photo at the end is of Bob Geldof...the actor who played grown up Pink...and his costar (wife) Eleanor David.
It's interesting you say that about this song because this song came out when I was in the 3rd grade, and the teaching establishment of the time tried to have this song band.
The video you watched had clips from a full length movie about the album. It's called The Wall. The kids are not bricks in the wall, the teacher is another brick in the wall of isolation the kid makes for himself to protect him from the evil of his world.
The man in the picture is the singer of the band The Boomtown Rats, Sir Bob Geldof. Bob played the character Pink in the 1982 film Pink Floyd's The Wall, Bob is also known as the promoter of LIVE AID 1985 at Wembley and Live 8, Live 8 is a series of concerts that started on 2 July 2005 with concerts in all G8 countries and South Africa. Live 8 can be seen as a successor to Live Aid. The event took place in London, Tokyo, Berlin, Rome, Johannesburg, Philadelphia, Barrie, Paris and Moscow. More than 1,000 musicians performed at the concerts, which were broadcast on 182 TV channels and 2,000 radio channels. It was also the last time Pink Floyd appeared as a band, a few years later Rick left us. And by the way, welcome to the world of Pink Floyd
This is how my parents was schooled in the uk, Schools now are miles apart now 😂 but I do remember when I was 10 in 1990 having to stand outside the class room with my nose against the wall and the teacher (Mr Robert’s) who come out and hit the back of my head..
I literally wore out their album Dark Side of the Moon because I played it so much in the 70s and had to buy another one. They are one of the most iconic bands ever. The whole album this particular song is off The Wall is also amazing.
In this movie, It projects a child who goes into adult hood ,going through His own trauma and the conditioning and programming of society which results into a mental illness " primarily schizophrenia" the music and the imagery collaborate together into a feature film... A must watch !!! 👍👍👍
We were in Junior School in 1979, in Yorkshire. The pupils (as we were then called) were not allowed to sing "we don't need no education". Anyone caught doing so was sent to the headmaster. And yes, we were caned at school, on the palm of our hands or on the bum, rarely but to did happen.
Brit, I've just started your channel; love your takes on music and even fashion. What made me come back was your enthusiasm for the story- telling videos, especially the country songs. Now, here you are with Pink Floyd! One of the best umm..progressive, psychedelic bands ever. Please take a look at Breathe, Time, Money, Brain Damage, and really all the tracks on the Dark Side of the Moon album. Philosophical, cerebral, freaking groovy. Appreciate your channel!
The Wall is also a movie from Pink Floyd that Follows the Album which stars Bob Geldof. Sort of a dive into post ww2 Britain and also a dive into psychedelia. Much of Pink Floyd's music revolves around band make Sid Barrett who was diagnosed with schizophrenia and was eventually institutionalized. The remaining band members were no doubt devastated but also curious as to what was going on in the mind of Sid as far as what was or wasn't reality. Pink Floyd is known for concept albums that really should be listened to all the way thru as they have a beginning, middle, and end as well as a theme. Some great music!
I remember last day of school in '81, 6th grade, whoever that kid was allowed to broadcast morning news, held the mic up to this song tearing out all distorted over our classroom speakers.
No, Pink Floyd is just the name of the band. Happens that when you listen to this band you must go for the whole LP at once, they are a theme. So each song is linked to the next. Like the scenes of a movie. Regards.
The song and this video which contains scenes from the movie (The Wall) is an enditement of the British school system. The grinder scene and the faceless students are symbolic of what that system does to children's minds. The one child is Pink, the protagonist of the story.
i was 12 years old when this came out and we all swallowed it raw, it was top music at that time. i didn't understand it al b4 the movie came out. but as many other`s are saying here it`s like starting a bog in the middle and read one chapter. what you are seeing here is a part of the main character`s journey.
To be honest, I cringe when I see a Reactor, that is new to Pink Floyd react to The Wall first. The Wall Album is a masterpiece but, a concept album. Reactors do not “get it” thus, don’t appreciate the master that it is. Also, I think it would help you Britt to know the release dates of the music.
"Another Brick In The Wall" was turned into a "rock opera" like "Tommy" (The Who) and Beetle's "Yellow Submarine." It's a great movie, but it's a little trippy.
this track also reflects the schools back in the 70's so different than today i left school in 1975 and i did not enjoy my time in education. loved the review
I sure wish she would have listened to the studio. Because the music is the greatest part of it all. The movie is good, but she can’t really hear the music with this video.
It's important to know that these are original scenes from the movie which was made by Alan Parker in 1982 and it contains much autobiographical material of Roger Water's life, the bassist of Pink Floyd: The loss of his father in the second world war, his overbearing mother, the suffering in the authoritarian school system in England after World War II etc. The photo at the end of the clip shows Bob Geldof who's also a rock musician and played the main role in the movie. I think you have to watch this movie for understanding the full implications of this amazing Pink Floyd album. As far as I know the complete movie can be watched for free on TH-cam.
Facts. I remember studying this album in social studies high school. Teacher was a fan. Another teacher friend of my sister was talking about this album being a way to discuss industrialization and its role to end the world.
As stated before this is from a concept album with a complete story As part two this is when he builds the final parts of the wall in his mind from memories of his childhood as he slowly goes insane on a rock and roll tour this causes his metal breakdown and collapse at this point of the story
I never heard anybody break this song Down quite like you have. You get it. Stereo headphone please. You can't listen to Pink Floyd with the computer speakers.
The Wall is also, and mainly, a movie. All the songs are connected. That's what Pink Floyd does usually in their albums, their amazing albums... Beautiful and unusual reaction anyway, thanks. Love from France 🇫🇷😘
You actually had two Pink Floyd songs here (three if you count the poem that cruel teacher read out loud) - Best days of our lives - Another brick in the wall part 2.
Britt, Pink Floyd's music was mainly made for hallucinagenics. The Wall is a whole movie. I've seen the movie and the band live in concert, both on acid back in the 80's & 90's. It is an out of this world experience. If you get the chance, watch the whole movie Pink Floyd the Wall.
I know people have said that Pink Floyd is meant to be reacted to by the album. They are to be experienced not listened to. It’s a whole vibe. How ever. Great gig in the sky. Has the best skat performance of all time in it. I think u would love it ❤❤❤❤❤
When I was in school we wanted to have this as our class song, but we wasn't allowed to have THIS as our class song. But we ended up having our song Changes by David Bowie..
Entire Pink floyd albums needs to be listen to,because one song blends into another and tells a story. Start with Dark side of the moon which holds the record for staying on the billboard charts like 20 years.
This ^^ 100%
That can go with most of their albums! They don't do individual songs. They do story telling with their music! That's what make them great!
Top 100 for over 30yrs. Start with Dark side of the moon, then wish you were here, then the wall, medal
this album is the soundtrack from a movie of the same name , to get the full effect , watch the movie
@@brianhuff5346 movies ok. The album by itself is better because as long as you know your history and have a struggling faith... You'll understand
A tough album to pick singles from to listen too. It really is better to experience it all in one sitting.

You need to watch Comfortably Numb live. Just remember, it's a federal crime to pause the video during a David Gilmore guitar solo.
🤣🤣😂😂👍👍💯💯
@@knowsomething9384 Completely agree. Live versions are cool for people who already know the song, but first listens need to be album versions. Everything is tweaked and worked on to sound exactly how the band intended.
Absolutely true.... life sentence for cutting on Gilmour's solo perfomance.

I saw the Animals tour at Madison Square Garden in NYC. Then Roger Waters October 2022 in Phoenix. And most of the guitar stuff I learn is Gilmour.
The Wall is an album with a whole story...worth listening to from begining to end........ Grew up listening to Pink Floyd!
The words of the "poem" the teacher was reading out at the beginning of the video are some of the lyrics from another of Pink Floyd's hits "Money"
Hey Britt, this track came out whilst I was at school and the teachers at the time hated it. I remember going on a geography field trip and the whole bus singing it throughout most of the journey. Great work as usual, give Pink Floyds 'money' a listen to. This was the poem the teacher in this clip was referring to.
Lol lol lol ...... "Yall are they really hot dogs" lol lol lol I LOVE BRITT .... you are adorable.
I saw Pink Floyd in the late 80s while stationed in Germany. To this day, my favorite concert, they were PERFECT!!!!!!! Keep checking them out!!!
Pink Floyd IS the greatest rock band of all time, 6 decades of unbelievable music. I got to see them in So Cal at Anaheim stadium in 1980
The whole album needs to listened to. It's really a story. A story of drugs, depression, isolation. The Wall is one of the greatest works in rock history.
That's Brick in the Wall part two.
Modern lyrics to this should be updated to:
"We don't need no education,
We just need some thought control."
Pink Floyd is other level !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Classic Pink Floyd 💗 best music ever ♥️
Saw them in concert. The Best. Grab some popcorn with a big TV with an Amazing sound system and watch the entire Pick Floyd the Wall in Berlin. Best ever! Enjoy!

Saw Pink Floyd in concert in 1988,great band,love their music
That "Poem" earned more money for Pink Floyd than all the teachers in that school's salary combined. lol
“Time” is in my opinion one of the greatest songs by Pink Floyd
Pink Floyd is one of the greatest bands to ever grace us with their genius. Their music still holds up as social commentary (since socially and politically nothing has changed in 50 years, not for the better anyway) and they are very talented poets and musicians. This is a deep catalog to dig into. Others have suggested some good ones but Comfortably Numb - Pulse Live, High Hopes - Pulse Live, and Time are all great places to start.

As a teacher in training, I was taught not to use sarcasm until a student was old enough to appreciate it. "No dark sarcasm in the classroom" is definitely true.
I was living in a southern rural woods cabin. Smoking and drinking. Working and laughing with friends. And Pink Floyd was a good part of that memory.
The poem the teacher reads out loud are lyrics from Money, a Pink Floyd song.
The picture at the end is of Bob Geldof of the Boomtown Rats and the force behind the Live Aid benefit concerts. Geldof plays the lead in the movie The Wall.
The guy in the photo was an actor Bob Geldof. He was acting as Pink in movie "The Wall".
You can only imagine how many school aged children were singing this song loudly and often back in the early 80's!
The poem the teacher read from the student consists of lyrics from another Pink Floyd song, Money
Fun fact, the "poem" that was read by the teacher were actually lyrics to another pink floyd song called money.
My 7th grade history teacher was my favorite!
Been watching your reaction in many videos and I'm a fan!
peace
those "poems" kept the album Dark side of the moon on the billboard charts for over 500 weeks. (10 years)
I homeschool my kids we have since preschool but we unschool, its complete child led learning, my kids have 100% freedom with their education....my 12 year old is set to graduate highschool by 14. Its amazing what kids can do when they are given true freedom to think for themselves.
its interesting to note that the poem of the schoolboy was actually the lyrics to another pink floyd recording entitled,,,,, money
Yes, you are correct for the part about Pink Floyd's another brick in the wall and its message. They were trying to tell you about things like CRT of it's time....that is going on today.! Good catch Britt!

That was Bob Geldof . . He played Pink on the film, watch the film Pink Floyd The Wall, but with a friend. . . 👍👍😁😁
Pink Floyd is a whole different level of listening... they thrived of bending the mind. They are brilliant and thought provoking.
They tell stories and like to rebel... lol. enjoy, its volumes of world renowned brilliance.

Pink Floyd is a Legend Band for sure! 🤘🤘🤘🤘 Great Reaction little lady!
Just a quick note.
The poem the teacher was reading and being mean about is actually from the Pink Floyd song "Money"
Britt, Love ya but your honestly killing me, how is it possible to not know literally one of the top 3 most influential rock bands in the history of the world?????
Pink Floyd got their name after two favorite blues artist they liked. Pinkney “Pink” Anderson and Floyd Council
Simply Put.... You are simply phenomenal.....Thank You

You're quite incredible. Very wise and deep. I remember when The Wall came out. I loved it.

Best reaction I've seen to this song!
check out the live pulse concert version of comfortably numb to see the band live
Pink Floyd is a phenomenal band, listen to their albums in their entirety, that is how it is meant to be.
I love the poem in this video is the lyrics from Pink Floyds song Money.
I love your thoughts about this. You are so right!
I literally wore out their album Dark Side of the Moon because I played it so much in the 70s and had to buy another one. They are one of the most iconic bands ever. The whole album this particular song is off The Wall is also amazing.
I am feeling you because I still have my worn out copy as well as its replacement, lol.

I was introduced to this band early 1970s, I was about 6 In 1976, greatest band ever! Great music!

This is one song we played full blast at the end of the school year, along with schools out for summer by Alice Cooper.
I remember last day of school in '81, 6th grade, whoever that kid was allowed to broadcast morning news, held the mic up to this song tearing out all distorted over our classroom speakers.

My god this brings back so many memories
More Floyd, headphones are a must!!
This is a song, a story, a vision an epic event. The movie was amazing!!
I never heard anybody break this song Down quite like you have. You get it. Stereo headphone please. You can't listen to Pink Floyd with the computer speakers.
Guitar Master and Vocalist - David Gilmore. To really experience his beauty, please react to:
Comfortably Numb - Pulse Live
The Wall is also, and mainly, a movie. All the songs are connected. That's what Pink Floyd does usually in their albums, their amazing albums... Beautiful and unusual reaction anyway, thanks. Love from France 🇫🇷😘
Check out the Pulse version!!!
The BEST live Pink Floyd video is, "Comfortably Numb" at the Pulse!! "The Wall" is also a movie worth reviewing or just watching.
Hi Britt. When listening to Pink Floyd you really need headphones or ear buds. Otherwise you miss way to much. PF is the best headphone music.
The poem he read in front of the class was actually lyrics from the Floyd classic Money...enjoy. I have certainly enjoyed your reactions.
I have 17 versions of this song.
This is my favorite
This is my favorite
This is my favorite
The poem that the teacher is reading is actually Some lyrics from a song that the Pink Floyd does called money
Great reaction ❤️ You are very insightful
You actually had two Pink Floyd songs here (three if you count the poem that cruel teacher read out loud)
- Best days of our lives
- Another brick in the wall part 2.
Remember that the teacher or school was just a brick in the wall through his life. Need to watch the Wall.
Pink Floyd is a group, the man and woman at the end were from the movie "the wall" they aren't in the group. The guy's name is Bob Geldoff
Britt, Pink Floyd's music was mainly made for hallucinagenics. The Wall is a whole movie. I've seen the movie and the band live in concert, both on acid back in the 80's & 90's. It is an out of this world experience. If you get the chance, watch the whole movie Pink Floyd the Wall.
That was our theme song 1979 the wall seeing him seeing him three times
I know people have said that Pink Floyd is meant to be reacted to by the album. They are to be experienced not listened to. It’s a whole vibe. How ever. Great gig in the sky. Has the best skat performance of all time in it. I think u would love it ❤❤❤❤❤
'The Wall' is actually a movie. That's why it changed scene right at the end :)
And Pink Floyd are the band
When I was in school we wanted to have this as our class song, but we wasn't allowed to have THIS as our class song. But we ended up having our song Changes by David Bowie..
