These guys are so awesome. I know some of the comment might be just playing ... but it doesn't matter ... any day of the week these guys are awesome. Seeing another generation discover a song like Kiss - "I was made for loving you" in real time is priceless. Keep going guys. Don't fold.
Pink Floyd are deeper than the Mariana trench, smoother than a quantum stabilized atom mirror, cooler than an iceberg in a river of liquid nitrogen and more zen than 1,000 Buddhist monasteries. Glad you enjoyed this lads Floyd has hundreds of awesome songs, follow the rabbit hole!
Lost my dad to a heart attack two years ago. He died right in my arms. Every time we heard this song in the car I would always ask him to tell me about the story of him seeing Pink Floyd in concert for the first time. It was a story that never got old for me and apparently not for him either. He always had a genuine smile on his face while he spoke and you could see the joy in his eyes of happier, simpler times. As always, love you guys and keep rocking on. You will always have fans in this house. Thank you ❤❤❤
Straight up beautiful watching you all go from joking, laughing pre-game chat to being all sucked into the spiritual depth of this sweet song. You guys are awesome -
The song is about the frontman of the band who was so lost and disconnected from reality because of the drugs he was using. This song means a lot to anybody who grew up in this time. Especially the writer of the song who lost his friend to something he had no idea how to help. One of if not there best songs.
@@BENFICA60- I agree! Sid could have done all the drugs in the world. Drugs do not induce schizophrenia. He was in the early stages of schizophrenia when he left the band. Sad.
Was my son's favorite Pink Floyd song. Now his father & I are just "two lost souls swimmin' in a fishbowl...year after year...wish you were here..." Fly high, my son...high & free
My husband died last year at age 52. This was our song as we had been apart 30 years before we reconnected. It was played at our wedding and it wad the last thing i played for him before i turned off life support. Pink floyd has gotten me through so much for 40 years. Life altering
Dawn... I too have a very similar story. I married my childhood sweetheart at age 35. He passed 1yr 18 days later, age 39. This was our wedding song as well. We had 2 fish in fish bowls on each table. I also played it for him before he passed... bless your heart darlin... kindred spirits we are. I'm now 53. 🥰
Aloha Dawn, My husband of 40 years left this world last year on thanksgiving day. We were together since I was 20 yrs old. The pain of lose is excruciating. I hope you are doing better than me. I was screaming into my pillow just this morning. Pink Floyd is my go to music.
Okay, dudes, so that you understand: Pink Floyd music was not and is not meant for mainstream radio airplay. They found incredible success in “non-commercial” music. Taste in their music isn’t for everyone, but they have proved time and time again that their non-radio music is a huge success. Yes, it just may not be to your taste. That’s ok.
Gentlemen. Pink Floyd - 'Comfortably Numb' Live from the Pulse Widely regarded as possibly the greatest guitar solo of all time. "You don't listen to Floyd, you *experience* it."
This is my favorite Floyd song...for sentimental reasons. I was 11 when this came out and my brother moved away. He called me and played this song over the phone to me because he knew I missed him so much. I remember feeling so loved by my big brother every time I hear it.
Pink Floyd is legit one of the most revolutionary bands of al time. This is one of their chillest songs, but once you get down the rabbit hole there are like 30 absolute classics.
Pink Floyd made some of the greatest music ever recorded. They are timeless. They also were big on social justice and tackling difficult societal issues.
from a pure artistic standpoint, Pink Floyd is the greatest rock and roll band of all time. Because you don't just listen to Pink Floyd; you experience it! It's something you can feel in your whole body. And not all their music is slow. But most is admittedly played at a more leisure pace than prototypical rock bands - because their music is about vibing and reflection; it's music for the soul. that you just close your eyes and lose yourself in it.
I have grown old listening to some of the greatest bands ever. I believe only a few of them will have their music being played 100 years from now. Pink Floyd is at the top of that shortlist.
The beauty of Pink Floyd is they seem to speak to people from all ages and walks of life. I've had friends that only listen to Metal and family members into old time country and even my neighbor who is strictly a classical music fan....and yet they all know Pink Floyd songs and rank them among their favorites.
I really love seeing the younger generation deep diving into old music like this with an open mind. I thoroughly enjoy this channel. I like that you pay attention to the lyrics, look up the meaning of the songs and all. Loving this channel right now ❤
Same. I've watched several different review channels, and this one is by far the best because they reflect on the lyrics and don't just listen to the music.
We had this played at my sons funeral Christmas 2 years ago . He used to play this on the guitar and sing when we would sit out by the firepit . This song has a lot more meaning to me than it did when I first heard it when it came out .
For me it's been almost 4yrs. since my son's death...the firepit in our back yard has never been the same. He succumbed to his demons from PTSD serving in Irag. I take the words to mean this is the way a Vet looks at coming home from war to civilian life...the struggle is more than real for a lot of our soldiers. 😢
Lisaray , im very sorry to hear about the loss of your son. I'm sure the impact of the song is hundreds of times stronger now that you've attached your son's memory to it. God bless your family and his memory always, especially when you listen to wish you were here
@Lisa Ray I’m so sorry for your loss, my boyfriend bought this tape for me before he died in 1977. We saw the Dark Side of the Moon Tour together in 1973 I still cry when I hear it, music is emotion, and Pink Floyd were masters. I’m very sorry
I had a feeling these lyrics were going to hit you guys. Glad they did. Pink Floyd is very different than anyone else. And their sound can be very different from album to album and song to song. I HIGHLY recommend listening to the entire Dark Side of the Moon album, from track 1 to the end. Even if you break it up over time. The whole album is only around 45 minutes too, so not that much time to spend for something SO worth it. I am positive you guys will dig it. The vibe is undeniable and the lyrics are deeply profound.
I know you guys will never read this but I just have to tell you...today is my birthday and it's been seriously shitty. I knew coming to watch you guys would cheer me up and you did,like you always do. The sincerity you put into listening and looking for the deeper meaning in the videos you watch ...it just makes me feel good to see younger folks appreciate music I grew up on and continue to find meaning from. So, Thanks.
Yes, do all parts of Shine on you crazy diamond. Pink Floyd is not just music it’s a vehicle to transport you through your mind and across the Universe if you let it in. Close your eyes, open your ear holes and just experience it.
We said the same thing almost word for word lol, I just said that on their comfortably numb reaction, this my second and your comment threw me for a loop like deja vu. I am smoking a big ass joint while watching floyd reactions tho, could be sumthin to do w it 😂
I love that you read the definition while filming so you can discuss it. Some channels just ask us to fill them in, in the comments but I want to see you guys react and talk about it.
Pink Floyd is not just a band, they are an experience.... My favorite band of all time. And this is my favorite song. I listen to this when I am missing my baby brother who passed in 2020.... Once again I will reiterate watch their movie The Wall......
I'm 70 yrs old and i listen to all your videos, I'd love sit down and intro ya'll to late 60's and 70's music. I appreciate the fact that you like old school music and are teaching a new generation to hear and enjoy it. I;m in Virginia and would love sit down with you Men and bounce my generation off yours. God Bless get in touch.
My father in law loved Pink Floyd, and he loved trout fishing in Scotland. He passed a few years back, and this song always brings me a mix of joy and sadness. When you said this is a song to fish to, it brought a tear to my eye.
I am a veteran and my best friend whom I met in Training camp for the Air Force Play this song for each other because we live in different states and 1000 miles away and it is a calling card for us to go on vacation to see each other. There is nothing like a friendship that was based on watching out for each other while we served. I’m not afraid to say it but I love my brother we will be best friends till we die.
You guys are awesome, you just don't listen to the music, you really get into it deep! Pink Floyd is my favorite. You guys do a great job, keep it up!!
This was my dad’s favorite band. He passed away in 2016. When I was 18 a friend of mine was indicted, and my dad said I could bring him up to his place in Southwestern New York to hide out in the country. When we got there from Richmond Virginia, he had one of his old friends there visiting as well. His name was Frank and he’d received a retroactive settlement after suing the state for a whole host of human rights violations from when he was locked up during the riots in Attica. My dad ended up turning his life around and thank God he was baptized prior to his passing. I’m now a certified education and employment counselor. Part of the population I assist are those reintegrating into society after incarceration. I will never forget my dad and Frank getting absolutely baked while this album played on a loop. R.I.P Dad, I wish you were here.
Pink Floyd was my dads fav band. He and I weren’t very copasetic most of my life, but when he died two years ago outta nowhere from the vid, ever since I can’t hear this song without getting emotional. One of the greatest songs. And Pink Floyd one of the greatest of all time 🔥
This song was played at my ex boyfriend’s funeral, he was a big fan ,and he introduced me to pink floyd and I’ve loved them ever since ,and I wish he was here 😢❤
Was introduced to pink Floyd at 14 ..now 60 and this song makes me feel same way 45 plus years on... It's one best songs ever written ..Rock on lads ..shout out from Australia
Lyrically one of the best bands of all time. My favorite Pink Floyd lyric is "you have to be trusted, by the people that you lie too, so that when they turn their back on you, you'll get the chance to put the knife in"
it should probably be noted, especially for anyone that's not familiar with them, that they're talking about politicians (well, i guess it could just as easily apply to a shady used car salesman or any number of other types of scumbags). as powerful a line now as it is ever was, if not more.
@@janetking2035 the song is 'Dogs' from the Pink Floyd album 'Animals' (1977). "...the album's lyrics describe various classes in society as different kinds of animals: the predatory dogs, the despotic ruthless pigs, and the "mindless and unquestioning” herd of sheep."
Now you goin in deep! Pink Floyd is an experience and you really have to do complete albums because each song on their albums tell a page of the story and when you do like you’re doing now and you’re skipping to three quarters through the book. If you listen closely during the guitar solo you can hear the angelic voice of one David Gilmour singing it with his guitar.
The two best parts: 6:00 mark and then the simple act of curiosity towards the end, finding out the inspiration to the song. Never stop being curious my young brothers ❤
Guys. Love your reactions. You remind me of guys I used to play ball with. I am so appreciative of them. They opened my eyes to we are all the same. I would love to hang with y’all. Even though I am older. Y’all rock. God bless you. Glad to see y’all are opening you eyes like my self. Givem hell guys.
This...Song...OMG... It means so much to me. Great reaction guys. I cannot implore you enough to listen to Dark side of the moon in its entirety as well as the wall. You will have to invest some time but man what a ride you will embark on.
Pink Floyd is deep and contemplative music for the soul. You've got to listen to the song Time and pay close attention to the lyrics. What he's singing about is so true.
Agreed. If you guys really just want to experience the Pink Floyd thing and understand what it was that made them so special, 'The Dark Side of the Moon' album as a whole would be the perfect point of entry.
Time and Brain Damage/Eclipse are my favorite tracks on Dark Side. I’ve listened to that album so many times that I’ve pretty much played out all of the other songs on the album. I’m sure that I’ll go back to loving the whole thing again though.
I was a runaway at 15 the first time I heard this song. I was at the home of a couple of Italian friends. Young girls who lived without fear and in luxury. I remember loving this song and it takes me back to that home and that moment every time I hear it. The words are brilliant, his voice is perfect, the music is timeless.
There are so many bangers from Pink Floyd! One of their probably more commercial songs, but actually one of my favourites, is "Money", a criticism as money being kind of the root of all evil... Definitely worth listening to!
My Dad raised me on Pink Floyd, this and comfortably numb were probably our favourite songs and he would play along on his harmonica😊 He passed last year so I can't listen without it provoking so many memories and emotions💔😢
I like how you guys feed off each other.... you all come out with some seriously silly then BAM!!! Drop some serious thought provoking revelations. Love seeing you discover the meaning of things. Much MUCH respect. Ya'll aight.
Time, Comfortably Numb, Coming Back to Life are few of my absolute favorites. My favorite band since I was 13 and the greatest of all time. Young Lust is a solid rock track...
My 3x great-grandmother walked "The Trail of Tears." Over 1200 Cherokee Natives are now watching ya'll, and they love all of you. Thought you might want to know. 🪶🦅
You guys should check out all the songs on this album. Dark Side of the Moon and The Wall were more popular but front to back Wish You Were Here was always my favorite Pink Floyd album.
This band hits different. You reacted to comfortably numb a few months ago, which was a great reaction. If you're going to check out more Floyd, I would recommend taking them in albums. Not necessarily in one video, but start with the first song of an album and then do the second whenever, then the third, etc. You'll get a lot more from it. These guys wrote some pretty deep lyrics. The album this song is off of, this being the title track, is no exception. It's about an original band mate, "Syd Barrett," who literally went insane and was committed.
I just love watching you guys all together. This song has always made me sad but seeing you guys do this video makes me happy. I just love you guys so much.
Good to see you reacting to this older music, these older rock bands had a lot of things going on at the time that influenced their songs. Think of the '60s, there was a lot going on politically and musically. Rock music was coming up and even giving birth to sub-genres - blues-rock, rock'n'roll, punk rock, etc. Couple of react suggestions: - Krayzie Bone - Clash of the Titans, which is a reaction to Eminem's Rap God. You can read up on Bone's influence in music. - Dire Straits - Brothers in Arms (On the Night Live). These guys are from northern England and Mark Knopfler's guitar rifts are out of this world. This song was written during 1982 when Britain was involved in the Falklands war.
this is the song for everyone whos ever lost someone to something they couldnt stop or help and had to stand by and just watch it all happen. helpless..
It was so sad because Syd Barret was a complete genius but he suffered with schizophrenia and was institutionalized his whole life after he had a full breakdown, Drugs and the epic success of the band just put him over the edge. Many of the songs are nods to his genius and he was loved and missed by the other members to this day. One of my favorite all time bands. Like you said, you can just put them on and get lost in your feelings and thoughts for sure! xx.
Did you guys do the live version of Comfortably Numb? If not, then you definitely should. Especially with how much you guys loved Eric Clapton and his guitar playing. David Gilmour's solo on Comfortably Numb from The Pulse tour was amazing. He's a God on the guitar, just like Clapton. Those types of players are on a whole other level. Basically, there's life before you've seen that performance, and then there's life after watching that.
1 luv... Game of thrones GOATED. Check out Journey... Faithfully and open arms.. Live and studio sound the same. They were in WE ARE THE WORLD(steve perry)
Holy crap I follow you guys and never seen this! My dad just passed. He loved motown but really loved this group... I've been listening to this song & others on repeat since he passed. Love you dad ❤️ Even Cartier Fam heard the feels
being older now and remembering these days with my boys. I hear this song and see yall react to it...but also i know college days only go so long and this soon will pass. This song will hit all of you differently when youre onto the next phase of life, its cool youre documenting this.
Thanks guys, I never knew the back story, but listened to all of Pink Floyd in my youth. Later on, in my 40's, (I'm 60 now) I lost my childhood friend to an overdose. Afterwards, this song took on a new meaning for me. Every time I've heard it since then I always think of her! The acoustic guitar accompanied with the lyrics made this song deeply beautiful and is still one of my favorites of all time. ✌❤🙏🌎
You guys need girlfriends badly
Lol. Dude in the red beanie has one that is pregnant.
They’re just young having fun
they're homiesexual bro, stop being jealous
You need a wig 😉 brah!
you need to touch grass
These guys are so awesome. I know some of the comment might be just playing ... but it doesn't matter ... any day of the week these guys are awesome. Seeing another generation discover a song like Kiss - "I was made for loving you" in real time is priceless. Keep going guys. Don't fold.
Pink Floyd are deeper than the Mariana trench, smoother than a quantum stabilized atom mirror, cooler than an iceberg in a river of liquid nitrogen and more zen than 1,000 Buddhist monasteries. Glad you enjoyed this lads Floyd has hundreds of awesome songs, follow the rabbit hole!
No lies detected
Don't encourage them ... they could end up having the time of there lives!
They are babies! GOAT band isn't for anyone 🤪🎵🎵🎵
That has to be THE best description of Pink Floyd I’ve ever heard! Pink Floyd has NO equal!
One of my favorite comments I've ever read

I’m sorry for your loss
Thanks for sharing Marissa, your dad sounds like a great guy
I lost my Dad a year ago and he raised me on Pink Floyd so I'm sorry for yr loss❤
I just took my son to see Roger waters live and was one of the best days of our life.
Can't imagine how amazing could be watch all 4 members.
Time by Pink Floyd is one of their best songs and seriously a life changing experience
Yes. Make sure to listen to the official one from the Pink Floyd channel and not any of the low quality or pitched up downloads.
Yea I just realized they haven't done this.. they'll have to go on a Pink Floyd run after that
Animals is my favorite album by them, so good
The lyrics get more and more meaningful the older you get too.
bumping this. get the version with the lyrics though
SHine on You Crazy Diamond is far better i would say
Straight up beautiful watching you all go from joking, laughing pre-game chat to being all sucked into the spiritual depth of this sweet song. You guys are awesome -

Especially the writer of the song who lost his friend to something he had no idea how to help. One of if not there best songs.
Syd was a person who lived with schizophrenia, psychedelics or not.
Their best songs*
@@BENFICA60 It was the combination of mental health issues and drugs that did Syd in.
@@Thenutz779 thank you!
@@BENFICA60- I agree! Sid could have done all the drugs in the world. Drugs do not induce schizophrenia. He was in the early stages of schizophrenia when he left the band. Sad.
Was my son's favorite Pink Floyd song. Now his father & I are just "two lost souls swimmin' in a fishbowl...year after year...wish you were here..." Fly high, my son...high & free
Much love man, hope you’re doing well
I wish he was here.
He is and y'all will see him again.
May your memories comfort you
It's the toughest road to walk
🖤
So sorry for your loss

There’s so much to say, I don’t know what to say. Just know someone will be thinking of you when this song plays. Wishing you peace & good health 😊
Love is to share those things Betty ❤️
I already cry during this song. I can only imagine what emotions it brings to you.
I wish you the best.
Dawn... I too have a very similar story. I married my childhood sweetheart at age 35. He passed 1yr 18 days later, age 39. This was our wedding song as well.

Nothing like Pink Floyd to open a young man's mind to the world and what's important.

I’ve tried (and failed) to find one single band that sounds anything remotely like Floyd. Can’t be done.
Gentlemen. Pink Floyd - 'Comfortably Numb' Live from the Pulse
Widely regarded as possibly the greatest guitar solo of all time.
"You don't listen to Floyd, you *experience* it."
Great one.
But I go with maggot brain by Funkadelic
Without question!
This is my favorite Floyd song...for sentimental reasons. I was 11 when this came out and my brother moved away. He called me and played this song over the phone to me because he knew I missed him so much. I remember feeling so loved by my big brother every time I hear it.

Pink Floyd is legit one of the most revolutionary bands of al time. This is one of their chillest songs, but once you get down the rabbit hole there are like 30 absolute classics.
Uh…ahem…EVERY Pink Floyd song is classic! They’re immeasurably awesome! 🤘
The whole album- is a masterpiece
One of the greatest rock and roll albums of all time
Amen
Every album
the whole 6 album stretch is a masterpiece
Along with Dark Side of the Moon and The Wall and Animals and 😉
Love how they got quiet and in the zone when the music started. It’s impossible not to get enveloped by their music and it really takes you away.
Beautiful music touches All. Even when no-one is even expecting it. So happy all of you are Deep-Spirited enough to Feel the depths of this song. 💚

Man, Floyd has a direct line to my emotional pain center. If I need a deep ugly cry, it's a sure thing every time.
you are some lucky guys, having a day-off together to gather and to listen to this wonderful music.

Yes, do all parts of Shine on you crazy diamond. Pink Floyd is not just music it’s a vehicle to transport you through your mind and across the Universe if you let it in. Close your eyes, open your ear holes and just experience it.
I definitely agree shine on you crazy diamond is a experience
I first heard it I cried it made me remember the past with my dad
This and “Shine On You Crazy Diamond” are my favorite Pink Floyd songs. Wish You Were Here makes me cry for my Father.
I think wish you were here makes everybody cry for somebody that they lost. How can you listen to the song and not grieve someone?
Shine on...remembers me of my high school friend that died so young. It was her favorite song
Pink Floyd are definitely in a genre all their own! I encourage you young men to explore more of their music. I hope you enjoy it.
We said the same thing almost word for word lol, I just said that on their comfortably numb reaction, this my second and your comment threw me for a loop like deja vu. I am smoking a big ass joint while watching floyd reactions tho, could be sumthin to do w it 😂

I love that you read the definition while filming so you can discuss it. Some channels just ask us to fill them in, in the comments but I want to see you guys react and talk about it.
One of the greatest songs ever written imo. It’s quite simplistic, but it hits deep af - both lyrically and musically.
And emotionally
@@AntonovichHicksenbrau absolutely
Pink Floyd is not just a band, they are an experience.... My favorite band of all time. And this is my favorite song. I listen to this when I am missing my baby brother who passed in 2020.... Once again I will reiterate watch their movie The Wall......
I LOVE how you delved into the history of the song, and that you guys really felt it. Welcome to the world of Pink Floyd 😘
I'm 70 yrs old and i listen to all your videos, I'd love sit down and intro ya'll to late 60's and 70's music.

When you said this is a song to fish to, it brought a tear to my eye.
Not sure I ever read anything regarding a in law like this
Must have been a great individual , may he rest in peace & fly high

His name was Frank and he’d received a retroactive settlement after suing the state for a whole host of human rights violations from when he was locked up during the riots in Attica. My dad ended up turning his life around and thank God he was baptized prior to his passing. I’m now a certified education and employment counselor. Part of the population I assist are those reintegrating into society after incarceration. I will never forget my dad and Frank getting absolutely baked while this album played on a loop. R.I.P Dad, I wish you were here.
More Pink Floyd!!! ALWAYS WITH LYRICS ON SCREEN!!! All of PF songs hit hard!!
Pulse concert
Pink Floyd was my dads fav band. He and I weren’t very copasetic most of my life, but when he died two years ago outta nowhere from the vid, ever since I can’t hear this song without getting emotional. One of the greatest songs. And Pink Floyd one of the greatest of all time 🔥
When I hear this song it reminds of friends that have passed. I love this song it stirs emotion everytime I hear it!
This song was played at my ex boyfriend’s funeral, he was a big fan ,and he introduced me to pink floyd and I’ve loved them ever since ,and I wish he was here 😢❤
I am glad you read the backstory to this song, the inspiration for it.
Was introduced to pink Floyd at 14 ..now 60 and this song makes me feel same way 45 plus years on... It's one best songs ever written ..Rock on lads ..shout out from Australia
Around the same time as you. I was 13 and now almost 59.
Blame "Animals", my compatriot. 😎
Pink Floyd is my favorite band of all time. I was fortunate enough to see them live and they were great!!!!
Thank you for this reaction.
I really appreciate that y’all appreciate this!
Y’all keep up the good work!
It’s nice to see you guys react to some classic music. Hope to see more!
Lyrically one of the best bands of all time. My favorite Pink Floyd lyric is "you have to be trusted, by the people that you lie too, so that when they turn their back on you, you'll get the chance to put the knife in"
it should probably be noted, especially for anyone that's not familiar with them, that they're talking about politicians (well, i guess it could just as easily apply to a shady used car salesman or any number of other types of scumbags). as powerful a line now as it is ever was, if not more.
Ok. I get it. But, what song was that from.
@@janetking2035 the song is 'Dogs' from the Pink Floyd album 'Animals' (1977). "...the album's lyrics describe various classes in society as different kinds of animals: the predatory dogs, the despotic ruthless pigs, and the "mindless and unquestioning” herd of sheep."
Animals is my go to calming album. Dogs is a masterpiece.
Now you goin in deep! Pink Floyd is an experience and you really have to do complete albums because each song on their albums tell a page of the story and when you do like you’re doing now and you’re skipping to three quarters through the book. If you listen closely during the guitar solo you can hear the angelic voice of one David Gilmour singing it with his guitar.
The two best parts: 6:00 mark and then the simple act of curiosity towards the end, finding out the inspiration to the song.
Never stop being curious my young brothers ❤
Guys. Love your reactions. You remind me of guys I used to play ball with. I am so appreciative of them. They opened my eyes to we are all the same. I would love to hang with y’all. Even though I am older. Y’all rock. God bless you. Glad to see y’all are opening you eyes like my self. Givem hell guys.
This...Song...OMG... It means so much to me. Great reaction guys. I cannot implore you enough to listen to Dark side of the moon in its entirety as well as the wall. You will have to invest some time but man what a ride you will embark on.
Pink Floyd song HAVE A CIGAR
Beautiful taste
Roy Harper vocals
on that one.
This song is timeless! It was as if it was written yesterday.
Floyd is music that you chill to when you have that right kind of “ high”! Just speaking factzzzz!
My first time listening to PF and i'm of that era. I always appreciate seeing the lyrics because so many artists slur the words. Thanks.
Pink Floyd is deep and contemplative music for the soul. You've got to listen to the song Time and pay close attention to the lyrics. What he's singing about is so true.
Listen to the whole album of Dark Side of the Moon. One song transitions into the other. It's a damn masterpiece!
My favourite LP ever. Saw Floyd at Earls Court back in the 70’s, when in my early teens. Never forgotten experience.
Agreed. If you guys really just want to experience the Pink Floyd thing and understand what it was that made them so special, 'The Dark Side of the Moon' album as a whole would be the perfect point of entry.
The lunatics are in my head…
They would miss it anyway, on account that they can't stfu for a minute. Not to mention that they can't get a metaphor if it hit them in the head.
Time and Brain Damage/Eclipse are my favorite tracks on Dark Side. I’ve listened to that album so many times that I’ve pretty much played out all of the other songs on the album. I’m sure that I’ll go back to loving the whole thing again though.
One of the best songs ever. Makes me cry everytime tho.
I was a runaway at 15 the first time I heard this song. I was at the home of a couple of Italian friends. Young girls who lived without fear and in luxury. I remember loving this song and it takes me back to that home and that moment every time I hear it. The words are brilliant, his voice is perfect, the music is timeless.
No life without the gods that are Pink Floyd, don’t my word for it, look it up ❤️🙏
This is a fucking classic! cool to see you guys reacting to some rock
Pink Floyd definitely had some loud sounds but they were the epitome of acid rock. Mellow trippy rhythms with soft spoken lyrics.
We affectionately called it "head music"!! Perfect tunes to enjoy while under the influence of one illegal substance or another!!
There are so many bangers from Pink Floyd! One of their probably more commercial songs, but actually one of my favourites, is "Money", a criticism as money being kind of the root of all evil... Definitely worth listening to!
My Dad raised me on Pink Floyd, this and comfortably numb were probably our favourite songs and he would play along on his harmonica😊 He passed last year so I can't listen without it provoking so many memories and emotions💔😢
I like how you guys feed off each other.... you all come out with some seriously silly then BAM!!! Drop some serious thought provoking revelations. Love seeing you discover the meaning of things. Much MUCH respect. Ya'll aight.
The first album I bought in the 60’s was Pink Floyd ❤️
Time, Comfortably Numb, Coming Back to Life are few of my absolute favorites. My favorite band since I was 13 and the greatest of all time. Young Lust is a solid rock track...
My 3x great-grandmother walked "The Trail of Tears." Over 1200 Cherokee Natives are now watching ya'll, and they love all of you. Thought you might want to know. 🪶🦅
Love this song. Enjoyed it in the mountains on an acid trip. Hits on a whole new level. Awesome for yall to explore different music.
One of the most beautiful song ever written.😢
You guys should check out all the songs on this album. Dark Side of the Moon and The Wall were more popular but front to back Wish You Were Here was always my favorite Pink Floyd album.
What an absolute amazing album. Its a masterpiece.
Please react to "Shine on you crazy diamond" (official video) by Pink Floyd.
An absolute masterpiece
So glad you did another one of the best band ever
That you took the time to look up what the song is about and learn a little about Pink Floyd is awesome. GREAT REACTION
Time, Money, Us and them, On the turning away, Young lust are all great tracks!
"Dark Side Of The Moon", the whole album. "Time", "Money", "Breathe/Run" , "Us and Them". Also, "Live at Pulse" amazing concert.
This band hits different. You reacted to comfortably numb a few months ago, which was a great reaction. If you're going to check out more Floyd, I would recommend taking them in albums. Not necessarily in one video, but start with the first song of an album and then do the second whenever, then the third, etc. You'll get a lot more from it. These guys wrote some pretty deep lyrics. The album this song is off of, this being the title track, is no exception. It's about an original band mate, "Syd Barrett," who literally went insane and was committed.
There's much more to Pink Floyd than meets the ear. Many strains. Many sides. Many sounds. Ultimately producing unlimited and infinite joys.
I just love watching you guys all together. This song has always made me sad but seeing you guys do this video makes me happy. I just love you guys so much.
You should listen to the "Great Gig In the Sky" from the Dark Side of the Moon album. Pink Floyd is an amazing band that transcends time
The song "Money" is a different vibe you all will like that one. "Another Brick in the Wall" is another great song with a message.
Good to see you reacting to this older music, these older rock bands had a lot of things going on at the time that influenced their songs. Think of the '60s, there was a lot going on politically and musically. Rock music was coming up and even giving birth to sub-genres - blues-rock, rock'n'roll, punk rock, etc.
Couple of react suggestions:
- Krayzie Bone - Clash of the Titans, which is a reaction to Eminem's Rap God. You can read up on Bone's influence in music.
- Dire Straits - Brothers in Arms (On the Night Live). These guys are from northern England and Mark Knopfler's guitar rifts are out of this world. This song was written during 1982 when Britain was involved in the Falklands war.
So happy you guys watched this. I cry when I hear this and comfortably numb..they are for my momma rip
this is the song for everyone whos ever lost someone to something they couldnt stop or help and had to stand by and just watch it all happen. helpless..
It was so sad because Syd Barret was a complete genius but he suffered with schizophrenia and was institutionalized his whole life after he had a full breakdown, Drugs and the epic success of the band just put him over the edge. Many of the songs are nods to his genius and he was loved and missed by the other members to this day. One of my favorite all time bands. Like you said, you can just put them on and get lost in your feelings and thoughts for sure! xx.
No, he wasn't institutionalized. He lived a somewhat reclusive life, taken care of by his family, painting and quietly doing his own thing.
I know Wish You We’re Here was for Syd Barrett.
Did you guys do the live version of Comfortably Numb? If not, then you definitely should. Especially with how much you guys loved Eric Clapton and his guitar playing. David Gilmour's solo on Comfortably Numb from The Pulse tour was amazing. He's a God on the guitar, just like Clapton. Those types of players are on a whole other level. Basically, there's life before you've seen that performance, and then there's life after watching that.
1 luv... Game of thrones GOATED. Check out Journey... Faithfully and open arms.. Live and studio sound the same. They were in WE ARE THE WORLD(steve perry)
Holy crap I follow you guys and never seen this! My dad just passed. He loved motown but really loved this group... I've been listening to this song & others on repeat since he passed. Love you dad ❤️ Even Cartier Fam heard the feels
Love seeing your Dad in the background.
God Bless you all😊
The best thing about being old is that I got to see all of the best bands live. 88, 89, 90 and 94. Four of the best gigs of my life.
being older now and remembering these days with my boys. I hear this song and see yall react to it...but also i know college days only go so long and this soon will pass. This song will hit all of you differently when youre onto the next phase of life, its cool youre documenting this.
Thanks guys, I never knew the back story, but listened to all of Pink Floyd in my youth. Later on, in my 40's, (I'm 60 now) I lost my childhood friend to an overdose. Afterwards, this song took on a new meaning for me. Every time I've heard it since then I always think of her! The acoustic guitar accompanied with the lyrics made this song deeply beautiful and is still one of my favorites of all time. ✌❤🙏🌎
The fact that in 2023 a group of young guys sit down, analyze the meaning of the song gives humanity a tiny bit of hope, wish more were like that
two of pink floyd's best songs are
Number: 1 time👌
Number: 2 have a cigar👍
yessss 🔥🔥🔥
Keep doing what you’re doing! It helps us come together
