The last line, "Mother does it need to be so high?" Refers to "the wall"...which is his psychological "wall" which he builds to protect himself from the world.
🎯
It is a wall that he eventually gets mentally imprisoned behind with every brick of the wall. Mother, due to overprotective nature provides another brick in the wall. The whole album is a story/concept of his journey from childhood to love to betrayal to fame and finally to insanity.
older generation here...the wall in the 80's was society/structure/conservatism/etc..;
Or did mother build it.
@@GaryNoone-jz3mq She gave him the blueprints.
You can never go wrong with Pink Floyd
Never!
I love it you reacctión!! Greetings from Chile!!
@@pedropablodonosomedina4829 HI from the U.S. and I'm just speaking the truth
@@StaceyRPGReactsLove your reactions so much. Definitely check out Money from their iconic Dark Side of the Moon album. It's such a banger and you will be so engaged I promise you. It was a huge hit.
I totally agree
“Yes. Mama’s gonna help build the wall.”
“Mother, did it need to be so high?”
YES!
Expectations.
This
Hits hard
The Wall between him and the world.
Context is everything here. Sounds like a sweet lullaby, but one of the most sinister songs ever written.
So, so true!!
Mother is actually a really sad song, it’s about an overbearing mum Molly coddling her son by not letting him be a boy and do the things he wants to. This is because she lost her husband in the war and is terrified of losing her son. It's all done through love, but has a negative effect on him creating bricks in his wall of isolation. That's why he says at the end, "Mother did it need to be so high".
Also, when a song can affect you so greatly it's powerful, there's nothing wrong with exposing yourself to those feelings and especially appreciating your Mom.
I believe, Roger Waters put multiple meanings to this line. It could mean at the same time, "did the wall need to be so high?", "why did I grow up?", and "did it need to be junked up?"
Well, you have to remember that Pink never, ever, ever takes responsibility for himself. He always lays it on Them, They. Never I. So with this song, so with the album. His father, mother, wife, etc...
This song he blames his mother for helping build the wall because she was protective. While it might be that his mother actually did overprotect to some degree, none of the things he mentions are necessarily bad things (Mother will find out where you've been, etc). Even the Mother I will put all my fears into you, is something every parent should probably do to some degree. I mean, unless you think a child should touch the fire to learn it is dangerous instead of telling them it is dangerous.
Many say the song is about a bad mother. When it is coming from Pink, you should take the lesson with some amount of skepticism.
@stanleymyrick4068 You hit it right on the head. I constantly see commentary about how the mother character was a detriment and a negative aspect of Pink's life, but you're absolutely right that it was done out of love and a fear of losing her son. I also am glad to see someone else point out that Pink never takes responsibility for anything, and that it's always everyone else at fault. Maybe in that sense, Roger truly is Pink.
One reason why its so different from any of their songs you've heard is that it has Rodger Waters on vocals, who left the band in 1985. I'd recommend reacting to Echoes live at Pompeii to see the 4 primary members after Syd Barrett's tragic departure from the band.
Of course after you listen to the album, then watch the movie. The movie literally caused my ex-wife mental issues. It truly disturbed her deeply. The movie actually started our eventual breakup.
"Why does it need to be so high" refers to the wall he is building around himself.
After listening to the album be sure to watch the movie.
It's all about the wall - figuratively but also portrayed litteraly in the artwork and visuals.
@@juliem6696 yup. The record changed me when I was a teen. Not just as a musician but also as a person.
I still find symbolism I've missed. Imho it's one of the best records ever made.
Rush "moving pictures" is a close second.
I find the concert in Berlin to bring it more to life than the movie. Although I loved the movie.
@@boballen818 the Berlin show is amazing. I think nostalgia connects me to the movie.
Needed saying
You have entered a deep rabbit hole with Floyd.
The Wall album is an entire story. Each song is like a chapter.
Exactly, it's almost impossible to understand one song by itself if you haven't heard the entire album.
@@rafox66 Yes and you need to hear the album several times. Its getting better each time you lisent to it
Well said….taken piece by piece you cannot get the whole story of the Wall. Should listen to the whole album a few times and also should see the movie for a different perspective.
I love how this song sounds so sweet that the listener is unaware of the toxic motherhood.
Literal for sure.
Yeah I was giggling as she missed all the dark lyrics. Relatable lyrics lol.
“Did it need to be so high”. The wall being built up around the character. Love your reactions Stacey!
Pink Floyd are timeless. Everyone gets an experience when listening and one song can give so many experiences.
RIP Syd and Richard ❤.
"Mother" is one of those songs from "The Wall" that needs the context of the whole album, IMO.
I agree wholeheartedly!! Thinking it is sweet, light and airy quickly goes away when listening as a part of the whole album!! It quickly becomes dark, toxic and overbearing!!
You can't beat watching the movie with Bob Geldof as Pink, a must watch....
It just shows how people never listen to lyrics
Roger Walters created this whole concept of a psychological wall to protect himself from the world in this album. In the case of this song, the wall that mothers build to protect their children, but which can be harmful despite good intentions.
I’m addicted to your Pink Floyd reacts because it reminds me when I first listened to them 40+ years ago. It’s allowing me to hear them again for the first time if that makes any sense
Same I was about 13 listening to this album, very influential in my early years, can't remember the name of the song, the flames are all gone but the pain lingers on, just remembered it, goodbye blue sky
Every Pink Floyd album takes you to a place you’ve never been before,they are the greatest band ever and always will be
You really don’t need to hear the albums to appreciate Pink Floyd,every song is an epiphany of sound and time ❤️
😊thats right
Balls
Amen
How do you identify with something if you've never been there before?
The Physical appearences of nerds has changed A LOT since I was young! The song is about Roger Waters mothers overprotectiveness, after his father died in WW2.
What a nerd!
He lost his grandfather too, to war! That is why Roger is like he is. And I don't blame him!
Love this lady's Pink Floyd reactions. It's a band close to my heart and to see a humble, heartfelt reaction means more than I can say.
the lyric at the end ties in perfectly,,if you pay attention to the previous lyrics, "mother should i build a wall?",,,,,,later on dave sings "of course mothers going to help build a wall",,,,building a wall up around himself, and in the end he asks "mother did it need to be so high?" this is precisely why its meant to be listened to as a whole album
Following the trend of the band's three previous studio albums, The Wall is a concept album, dealing with themes of abandonment and personal isolation. It was initially conceived during the In the Flesh tour in 1977, when bassist and lyricist Roger Waters' frustration with his audience became so acute that he imagined himself building a wall between the stage and the audience. The Wall is a rock opera centered on Pink, a fictional character based on Waters. Pink's life experiences begin with the loss of her father during World War II, and continue with ridicule and abuse from her teachers, her overprotective mother, and finally the end of her marriage. All of this contributes to a self-imposed isolation from society, represented by a metaphorical wall. It is necessary to listen to the entire album to internalize and understand the story. Hug- ✌
Glad you like Pink Floyd...They are my favorite rock band...I`ve been a fan since the early 70`s when I was 11 years old...It does not get any better than this band.
Mama is building a wall around her 'sweet little boy' to protect him from all evil. - "Mother did it need to be so high...?"
Mama isn't building the wall. Pink is building the psychological wall.
@@neillenet291 Mama is doing her part.
@@neillenet291 - mama, like abussive teachers, ;ike death of his father in war, a bad marriage, drugs to numb the pain, etc., are all just bricks in Pink's wall.
Yeah Stacey, a lot of viewers watch reactions and the try to tell you how you should react.
I’m here for you.
You’re doing a fabulous job.
The Wall was partially built by Mothers over protection.
Thank you so much!!❤️
You ARE doing a fabulous job!
Hi Stacey, I first started my love of Pink Floyd when I was 14, I turn 50 in a couple of months, no other band can compare... "Have a cigar" on the wish you were here album is a favourite of mine. And yes it's "Balls"
"momma why does "it" have to be so high" My simple interpretation is "It" being the psychological barrier (The Wall) that a single mother can instill in their kids which can be crippling especially in young men, which is an interesting judging by the present societal Issues single parenthood can create.
I'm 48 and started my Pink Floyd trip in the midle 80's too. 🤘
My brother form another mother!, having Pink Floyd in your back pocket for 30 years to seek solace in has been useful. The band is from my local area, in and around Cambridge, I even went to school in-between the faces of the Division bell Album Cover!...@@adenauerlemos7926
My brother from another mother! Having Pink Floyd to fall back on for 30 years has been priceless.. The band are from my local area, in and around Cambridge, I went to school in between the heads on the Division Bell Album Cover! #shitclaimtofame... @@adenauerlemos7926
Do you think Stacey is ready to drop acid and watch The Wall? lol.....@@adenauerlemos7926
I also started l9ving Pink Floyd atcthe agecof 14, I'm now 54 a true Floydian through and through. I will forever love pink floyd. No one does it like David does and he does it with such ease . His guitar playing takes you on an almost out of body experience transending time and space you almost feel as if you are flying
mother did it need to be so high, the WALL
See the film !
Pink Floyd is an ear experience, with genuine amazing thinkful lyrics🧠 Great reaction 👌
You're doing great, Stacey! You can't get it all digested in a single setting and piecing through this album before exploring the "concept" is not a bad way to do it. In fact, this is lifetime album that evolves WITH you over your life. I'm 59 and I didn't "get" The Wall at first. I just heard the songs they played on the radio. The more people you talk to who have been influenced by The Wall, the more you will appreciate it.
Beautiful song, beautiful woman, beautiful album. Stay safe! 😁
This particular mother wasn't such a force for good. "Mama will always find out where you been" "Mama's gonna put all of her fears into you." "She won't let you fly, but she might let you sing" It's really not up for debate. It's not a loving tribute to mom, despite the light melody and arrangement.
@mrhyde119Dumbest comment ever. Way to prove you don’t understand the lyrics OR being a good parent.
@mrhyde119 I think the mother couldn't help herself and didn't see all the negative energy she put into him. Shutting him down.
She lost her husband and her childs father in a war that never should have happened, she lived in constant terror from air raids, invasions. Imagine being HER then and there. I think we would all come away from that damaged.
@@johnmcteague3925 Both ideas can be correct at the same time.
Welcome to the Pink Floyd Rabbit Hole. A place where creativity meets chaos.
To get the whole picture of 'The Wall' you first need listen to the whole record, then watch the concert movie from Roger Waters 2011 and 2014 tour and finally the movie they released in the beginning of the 80s. The movie by director Alan Parkerwill provide you with all the context you need to understand the whole concept behind 'The Wall'. The tour had an unbelievable visual concept. During the first half of the concert they built brick by brick the wall until the whole band is hidden behind it. The whole time the wall is used as a monimantal screen to show pictures, movies and best of all unbeleivable animations by Gerald Scarfe. in the second half of the concert the band remains and plays most of the time behind it. From time to time Roger or the 'surrogate' band appeared in front of it until the whole wall will be torn down after the trial 'Pink' (Roger Waters) is holding against himself.
Mother will protect you... But did you have to build the wall so high? I know it is to protect me from hurt... Great reaction as always!!
This is a song that truly would benefit from being heard in its actual place in the album time line. However it still stacks up as a stand alone . It is dark.
Walters and Gilmour trade vocals brilliantly. As the characters Pink and Mother
It is dark and when i watch reactors react to this they get the whole song wrong.
@kurtschmidt9760 it's hard to put in context without hearing the record as a whole.
The movie explains the album so well. The best rock opera ever.
David even with that said just listen to the lyrics to this one song without context and it is dark and not really what you would your mom to be@@davidmhewett44
As I am sure you will become increasingly aware Pink Floyd is unique in that most if not all are concept albums. As a old dude I was just listening to the album (it's what we did way back then) I am so pleased that younger fans are finding this band sixty plus years since my first listen to Pink Floyd. They still speak to the human experience and their demonstrated creativity is self apparent. You have many albums to yet to discover I hope to relive my experience thru your eyes and ears and thank you for your posts.
This song hits home to me and always puts a lump in my throat. My mother was evil.
Pink Floyd doesn't know this but that song was written for me. It describes the atmosphere I grew up in. I am the youngest of 4 and the only son. "Mamas gonna keep you right here under her wing". Im 62 and to this day its a struggle to sit through this song (even though its genious). Your reaction was beautiful and Im glad I heard it with you. Thank you for that!!!😥
The album The Wall was made together with the film of the same name. Their albums always tell a story like a novel, it starts with the first chapter, develops and ends with the last chapter. This one is no different, the story tells how a child's life is threatened by everything from their environment. The same goes for a mother who lost her husband in the war and raises her child very protectively as she knows and knows best, but it may not be the best for the child herself. That is why the child, the young man begins to build a defensive wall around himself against the outside world. In this poem, the mother also added a brick or two to this virtual wall. And in the end, he wonders why it has to be so difficult.
Thanks for the reply, I really like your comments which show a genuine curiosity about the world around you, about music and the comments reflect that. Regarding the desire for the next video, if I stay with the Floyd, who are among my three favorite musical groups, first of all, as a group, they somehow have three musical periods, the first with the original leader Syd Barrett, where they laid the foundations of exploring the possibilities of instruments, mutual cooperation, jamming , the second with the most productive creative work of the most famous albums and the last only instrumental compositions. I think that for anyone who is just getting to know PF and is posting reactions to it, the most spontaneous and natural way is through individual pieces, which is exactly what you have chosen yourself. It will surely draw you to know more and listen to the whole album. But to begin with, I would advise that not in one piece of the whole, but piece by piece separately one after another in a separate video and only later whole album in one video if you wish. What reaction would you like to hear next? Perhaps Welcome to the machine, where they fight the cruel music industry, in the battle with which they themselves had to leave a part of themselves in order to become what they are today. The industry won, reported in Have a cigar. Or Shine on you crazy diamond, parts 1-5 and 6-9 dedicated to the memory of original leader Syd Barrett, who was driven away from them by drugs. Or their longest song Echoes, first the studio version, and later Live at Pompeii (full or part 1 and 2), where they performed in the amphitheater in Pompeii also for a TV movie in front of empty stands, only with the souls of those who died two millennia ago under the ash of the volcanic eruption of Vesuvius@-TeIe.gram_me_StaceyRPGReacts
Pink Floyd Coming Back to Life
You are such a transparent person, it's easy to relive through you our first time hearing these beautiful songs and experiencing the magic of this band. If I may recommend a song for you to listen to, it's 'Shine On You Crazy Diamond' (studio version), but first, read some context about the song because it has a deep meaning and is dedicated to someone very special to the band. Greetings from Argentina! It's great to hear Pink Floyd with such an honest reaction.
To get the whole experience of this song you really need to do a reaction to the whole album.. it will blow your mind.. and you will fall in love with this band like we all have... Pink Floyd will always be the best band imo
LOL And Pink Floyd comes through again ! Can't wait to see how long or what you will have to say on "Echoes" Live ! Thanks Stacey !!!
Enjoying your PF journey. Congrats on the new kitty 🤗
Such a powerful song. Great reaction Stacey! Pink Floyd is so relatable.
I will suggest this one again: it’s the music video, Echoes - Live in Pompeii. It was recorded in am ancient theatre with nobody except for them and the production crew, and it was in the daytime. It was just before they recorded their buggiest album, Dark Side of the Moon. You would love it!
It’s on the list :)
I have live at Pompeii on vhs. 😂
I still watch it.
@@StaceyRPGReacts I’ll look forward to it!
I would suggest to listen to the album version first.
Pink Floyd live at Pompeii will change your perception of the band, seeing them young, in their prime, making the most incredible music you will ever hear, will blow your mind!!!
".. of course mothers gonna help build the wall" .. that is also the answer on what is "so high". And the wall is the inner wall that Pink (the main antagonist, or in reality mostly Roger Waters himself) built up agains the whole world outside.
" .. Mother puts all of her fears into you .. " that is maybe the other really important line of the song, that also show its in now way "light" but rather a really dark song. In the end mother has rather made an emotional cripple out of him.
Pink Floyd's albums all have a theme and the songs within tell the stories of that theme. The Wall is about the wall we all build to protect who we all are, our inner psyche, hidden fears, aspirations, loves, our emotions that are formed from our interactions with people and life, it is a wall, a facade, a barrier, our strength, our being, our universe - yes, that is why Pink Floyd speaks to us all.
Stacey ...... I love you !!
Why? ..... because I can see you love Pink Floyd. Closing your eyes and enjoying what you're hearing (I love it). The band was one of my first discoveries in the 70's and they are still my number one.
Thanks for sharing these oldies,
Love (from an oldie) from the Netherlands and keep them coming.
Short and sweet solo, David played a longer version with a second part on tour. The last line hits hard, Pink decided to build the wall and to look after him Mother of course helped her little boy, but once complete Pink looked up and saw how high it was and seemed to have second thoughts.
Reminds me of Larkin's famous line, "They fuck you up your mum and dad."
One of his best solos, for me.
The second brick. An overprotective mother. The first brick was his father’s death. The whole double album was a single story.
Third brick. Methinks you are forgetting the teacher.
Stacey, thank you for being an honest and sincere channel - it really is quite refreshing. I’m only a few years younger than David Gilmour and also from England in the UK. I’ve been listening and following Floyd since they began creating music. One track I always enjoy is ‘Coming back to life’ from the Pulse concert in 94. I would love to know what you think too, so if you have time…
You need to check out the entire Movie, Pink Floyd's "The Wall" to get the entire concept of the story.
In 2019 I went to watch the Lazer Show at Harrah's Lake Tahoe Showroom and they didn't play this. We were so bummed. 😭
Happy belated 4/20😁😎
You are the sweetest reactor on the tube.Greatest music to. Thank you.❤
A lot of people first time listen don’t understand the last line but look at the name of the album and you’ll understand what they’re referring to when he says does it need to be so high! We’re talking about the wall that some people build around themselves through the years for all different reasons whether it’s their mother Etc.
It makes me smile in my golden years to find this album is still reaching another generation on this level…a complete story that never loses it’s impact…just listen closely…always, listen closely.
Having been a Pink Floyd fan forever, I am really enjoying watching your reactions to their incredible music. They were so very cutting edge and different. You would have been affected forever seeing them in concert as I did in 1992. Love your take on their music!
Referring to ‘the wall’- why did she need to contribute to its conception as much as she did? Through all her actions and influence mentioned in the song, she built upon Pink’s wall by being as patronising, overprotective and dominant as she was. In this line, he’s asking her- did she really need to be this way? Did she really have to be one of the primary factors of his wall?
Pink never took responsibility for what he done and became, always blaming others. His father, mother, wife, etc... This song he blames his mother for helping build the wall because she was protective. While it might be that his mother actually did overprotect to some degree, none of the things he mentions are necessarily bad things (Mother will find out where you've been, etc). Even the Mother I will put all my fears into you, is something every parent should probably do to some degree. I mean, unless you think a child should touch the fire to learn it is dangerous instead of telling them it is dangerous. Many say the song is about a bad mother. When it is coming from Pink, you should take the lesson with some amount of skepticism because it is ALWAYS some other persons doing and fault with Pink.
@@stanleymyrick4068The beauty of music and lyrics is the fact that you can interpet them diffrently. For me, ”mother” isn’t his mother, it’s the reign.
@@swedishgooner6339 What reign? Of course you can interpret anything however you want. Just look at my wife or daughter and they interpret things vastly different than I. But you are the first I've heard ascribe mother to anything other than his actual mother. I certainly haven't and I've listened to this album on loop. Watched the movie untold amount of times. Listen to it to this day, and I'm over 50. But it's your music too, so listen to it your way and no harm no foul, I say.
The song is writen about Roger Waters own mother.
Forget all the nonsense about Pink etc.......The Wall is Roger Waters life story.....his autobiography .
@@Rassskle So Roger Waters was the leader in the concert where he called out all the people that were different than him and the riots and such? I didn't know he was such a controversial figure.
The song is about an overbearing mother and the last line "Did it need to be so high" is talking about the wall.
So glad I found you as you are discovering pink floyd. Can't wait to join you on your journey. Welcome to the machine!
50 years later and we’re still asking the same questions. Lovely reaction Stacey, keep them coming ❤🏴🇬🇧
Esse foi o muro criado em volta de "PINK" (a personagem )Justamente por isso que se deve escutar o álbum inteiro. O álbum narra uma história. Abraços do Brasil!
Roger is lyrical God, this album was basically his unofficial autobiography
it's been fun experiencing these songs and my favorite bands through your eyes
Yes, it is here too, Pink Floyd has gotten a hold of you. Very Good. Great Reaction!
As you were saying , girls get to ask their mom's these questions....
For boys these questions are just in our heads , and there are no answers
i was 16 when this album was released, being a floyd fan this album did not disappoint. it is so refreshing to see youngsters as yourself enjoying real music, keep up the good work stacey and please react to money and sorrow on the pulse concert
Pink Floyd's lyrics are always deep and complex. Waters is a narrative genius. Much of what he tells is autobiographical. If you know his life it will explain many things to you.
Stacey, I have loved your reactions to Pink Floyd. Watching you fall in love with them is so wonderful. And as a 1st time listener to these songs you have done a amazing job at getting the meaning and the feeling that you get when listening to PF. I'm so excited for you to go further into the psychedelic world that is Pink Floyd. You are becoming a true Floydian 👍
Can’t listen to one song in the wall understand the songs. Get the movie DVD watch the entire thing and remember it’s about the life and struggles of Roger Waters.
The wall she built. Did it need to be so high?
The Wall needs to be watched or listened to as a whole to put the songs into context. Watch the movie! Thanks for the review! Always love it when young people experience my favorite band.
Love your comments Stacey! You seem like a really warm person! Love your cats too! :)
Did it (the Wall) need to be so high ?
Roger Waters lyrics are amongst the best out there. Love the little kitty cat, not sure whether it would get on with my parrot though ! 😅. Love yer analysis 👌
I'm a new subscriber and love your enthusiasm for Pink Floyd. I grew up listening to those guys and still do. I'm 60 years old and have a couple suggestions for you which I will throw out later.
✌💀👍
I was blessed to see this concert 14th row center. Of course the by far best concert I was ever at.
You must never trust governments.
This whole album needs to be listen to together. The movie is a great help in understanding the hard truth of what is meant by each of the songs.
Hi Stacey,
Here are all the Pink Floyds Concept Albums.
5 concept albums that the band released between 1972 and 1983: Dark Side of the Moon, Wish You Were Here, Animals, The Wall, and The Final Cut. To me all are Masterpieces!
Thanks
This is my ALL TIME fav Floyd Song. 😍 ❤
That final line might be be related to the figurative 'wall' that is being 'built' during the full story.
Cats (three different ones) hmm...
"Mother, did it need to be so high" is one of the clues that "The Wall" has to be heard in it's entirety. That, and the puzzled looks on your face.
Just love watching you react to Pink Floyd! They are indeed a WONDERFUL band!!!
Please react to Led Zeppelin- No Quarter
Thank you Stacey for reacting to this one. Your personal Pink Floyd sojourn is an enlightening experience.
I am so happy that you and other younger people have discovered Pink Floyd. Thank you for staying with the most awesome band ever!
This, I think, is the first time you've heard Roger Waters. He is the voice of the child asking the questions and David Gilmour voices the mother. I absolutely loved the smile on your face when the Gilmour solo started. You looked like someone had just given you a sweet hug. That is the same way I feel every time I hear it too. (And I've probably heard it hundreds of times). It never gets old. "Shine on You Crazy Diamond" is another album version well worth the listen. Musical masterpiece. I love your PF reactions. You get them the same way I have for nearly 60 years. Keep 'em coming.
Goosebumps. Reminds me of my dad he used to play this daily. Been listening since I was 4 years old. Just an incredible band. Lucky enough to see Roger Waters in the wall tour with him back in 2012. Best day ever.
you help bring tears to my eyes, thank you very much
Pink Floyd guarantees music with feeling & emotion.
The final line refers to the wall. "Did it need to be so high?" You'll understand when you listen to the whole album, or better yet watch the movie.
In 1982, they turned the entire album into a theatrical movie. It's like one long music video, featuring every song on the double length album. A word of warning, though: the film is Rated R.
Stacey I just found your channel yesterday accidentally
I do watch reaction videos sometimes but not always, so suddenly youtube recommended me one of your videos and after watching that I watched 4 to 5 videos of yours one by one since yesterday and subscribed your channel
Loved your reactions and thoughts and the most interesting part is you react as a listener first not like a musician's reaction who always talks about music theory and all so if someone is not a musician he/she would love your channel to see your thoughts as you bring how you felt, how the song touched you emotionally
One humble request, please upload a porcupine tree reaction video on your channel, my favourite band and imo one of the greatest prog rock bands of all time at the same level of pink floyd, rush, genesis etc.
Please upload one time, trust me there are a lot of pt fans out there you will get to see on the comment box
The songs you can try: trains, blackest eyes, arriving somewhere but not here, anesthetize, the sound of muzak, drown with me, deadwing(the song), the start of something beautiful, the sky moves sideways etc.
They even put out a Pink Floyd movie.the wall. Which was crazy in itself. An album I used to listen to years ago to put me to sleep was call Pink Floyd, (animals). Psychedelic trippy album . Five songs on album and they all run into the next song. You'll hear animals in the background that are all done on synthesizes. It was pretty cool for those days. Yeah the wall you have to listen to the whole album. My friend went to Germany to see them back in the 80s. They built a wall in front of the band the whole time they were playing till you couldn't see the band anymore. Then they smash the wall down with the last song.
Stacey, you are doing a fantastic job on these clips you do, just love it, be safe and take care, all the best from Plymouth, UK.
I saw them in 1986 just before I went to the Army....
Best show I've ever seen. Watch the wall or just kick back in your bed on a rainy day.....sweetness
...
Hi Stacey, The Wall album is meant to be listened to the entire way thru..it tells a story with the songs, in the order they appear on the album..there is even a movie 🍿 called Pink Floyd: The Wall, in which the entire album is played in order..have a nice week Stacey, keep Rockin' out girl! 🎸🔥🎶🌹
Interesting fact. If u play side 2 of the album, the last song is the same song that opens side 1
So many years since this song and The Wall smacked us in the face. Absolutely amazes how it still resonates today. Wow - - - - Pink Floyd
One of my favourite songs. It's about an over protective mother who does not want to let go of her son. You are spot on with your analysis of the song. The son cannot function socially so builds the wall to keep the outside world out. If you watch the film of The Wall it all becomes clear. The last line does relate to the wall that is built. Also I just want to say that you are fantastic. Beautiful and intelligent lady who loves Pink Floyd. What more could anyone ask for!
