The greatest song , from the greatest album ever, from the greatest rock band ever . How can you not ??
Back in O.C. Calif when I was 27 my wife heard a commercial on the radio about a P.F. show coming up. Knowing I am a Floyd fan she called the radio station to get information on the concert, The DJ on live radio said...."Congratulations, YOU are caller number 10, YOU just won tickets to the show and the Sound Check Party before the show"... I met David Gilmour and he gave us both a signed album. We chatted for 22 minutes while he signed others albums. 35 lucky people won tickets. I called him…“The Master Of The Stratocaster” He smiled. I asked if I could shake both his hands that make such great guitar solos, he smiled bigger and said “Sure” and shook both hands at the same time, making a cross between us, I smiled HUGE. I asked him to describe his technique of playing guitar, he replied… “I strike a note, bend it, shake it and then release it”…. Yes, he does that quite well, better than any other guitarist I know. It was AWESOME..... Greatest show I've ever seen. and I've seen Pink Floyd four times.
Nice one!
Thanks for watching!
That's cool mate. Part of the fun of doing these videos is seeing what she does and doesn't connect with - sometimes within an artist's catalogue. Rach didn't connect with Dogs, but she did with Sorrow and Great Gig for example.
I'm not forcing her to listen to anything (no shackles beneath the table 😉), and I'm not expecting her to love or even like everything (although I'm hoping that she does).
She's up for listening to music that I love, and for letting me know what she thinks (good or bad). That's kind of the point of the channel 😁.
Cheers
Awesome 👌 😮
Lucky you......wish I was there.....
In my opinion, this is the greatest version. Absolutely superb.
Amazing live performance of "Mother". I've been listening to Pink Floyd since I was a kid and everytime I hear any of their songs they mean more and more to me. All genre's aside Pink Floyd is the greatest band to ever exist.
Never gets old!
Thanks for watching!
RUSH
I know these videos are a year old but I give you props for trying your darndest to appeal Pink Floyd to a woman. I tried and they just look at me as if I'm crazy. Needless to say I dropped them ASAP! But with R.. I see hope D...
i saw opening night of this tour at the L.A. Sports Arena and to this day it still stands as the best concert i've been to...and i say this having my very first concert ever being their L.A. Sports Arena show for DSOTM.
It’s 10 PM December 23 and I’m watching your video smoking weed drinking beer doing shots of bourbon merry Christmas
I can think of worse ways to spend the evening :)
Hope you had a great Christmas and New Year!
Thanks for watching!
My favourite Pink Floyd song...lost my mother as a child and this always brings a tear to the eye. Cheers for doing this one guys, much love from Oz. X
Sorry to hear that man, but thanks again for your support!
This is a great live version, so glad I bought the box set CD in the 90's!. The build-up to their UK no. 1 hit single in 1979 'Another Brick in the Wall' is astonishing
Yep, it's a great album isn't it?
Thanks for watching!
i was lucky enough to see the wall tour in 1980 in los angeles. this CD package captures the sound of the show beautifully. if only they'd put as much effort in making a video record of the show. anything you can find is fair quality at best. it's a shame really because it was an amazing concert.
Yeah, I remember reading that they did film it but the band weren't happy with the outcome, so it never got released. It is a real shame.
The Roger Waters Wall Tour was amazing, and the video of that is brilliant. Next best thing I guess!
Thanks for watching!
@@RDMusicExchange also roger waters the wall live in berlin with an all star cast. that was the wall on an enormous scale.
@@DannyD714 Yep, I watched that live on TV - loved it! (even though some of it was a bit of a mess!)
This not just a song , this is part of a rock opera novel , THE WALL ! .
The album The Wall which this song is from with a concept album that Pink Floyd did it was meant and made for the whole album to be listened to from the first song to the last cuz they all connect. The song is about a little boy and lost his father in world war II she became father and mother overbearing and controlling to the point it made her son neurotic. Very sad song. I've watched other reactions and the younger generation totally does not get this song at all lol.
Great song great reaction..Thank you and have a nice evening.
Thanks!
And thanks for watching!
I was at this earls court performance 1981 was stationed in Scotland
Am sure that would have been amazing!
Love the Flanger on David's guitar. He knows how to really make it sweet. Creators and enhancers of so many emotion's.
Yep!
Thanks for watching!
Well, I don't think I've ever heard an analysis of the actual musical element of Gilmour's solo as spot-on as Rach's--I never thought about it in the way she describes it (and I've heard The Wall a ton of times): the music enacts the mother's harsh protectiveness. I also agree that the song doesn't really stand out on its own; it's really more valuable in the context of the album (not trying to stir up bad feelings among fans by saying so). It just doesn't have the dynamics that "Comfortably Numb" has or "The Happiest Days of Our Lives/Another Brick in the Wall, pt. 2." I'd even say "Goodbye Blue Sky" has a harder hit to it than "Mother." But it's still a great song, and I love seeing more PF reactions from you two! Thank you!
I'd never thought about it that way either (as you might be able to tell by my reaction when she mentions it) - so it's cool that I now have something different to appreciate about the song after all these years!
Thanks again mate.
Grazie, reazione sincera e autentica. Buona vita
Grazie mille.
Grazie per la visione!
Waters and Gilmour do that alternating verse/chorus or call/response so well. On Comfortably Numb Waters also does the dark verse and then Gilmour does the uplifting chorus. But I really love how they alternate line for line on Run Like Hell, and particularly on this live performance. th-cam.com/video/lKgOe1Rl8YY/w-d-xo.html
Yep, that's great!
Thanks for watching!
it's good live but the studio is the prefect song,the exhale at the start letting you know it's one of those days,the touches on the bell of the ride,roger's sweet two note bass,dave's melodic break,wright's deft little touches.all the way through that masterpiece of an album(for me it's art work)dave is the ying to roger's yang,the sweet relief to his paranoia/isolation etc if you will.at the end of mother "you'll always be baby to me" has to be the most heartbreakingly beautiful audible hug ever put to vinyl,then the last acoustic strum...BRRRRRING...draws it to a close.jees chokes me everytime thinking of my dear departed patricia(mother),pink floyd the best band ever lived,have a good day folks
Thanks mate - yes, I agree the studio version is amazing.
But I figured that every other channel reacts to that version, so I thought that as a massive Floyd fan, it would be better to have a deeper/rarer cut to react to. :)
Thanks for watching.
@@RDMusicExchange no probs keep em coming and i hope you've got your tool tickets
@@stecumo6459 Unfortunately there are no plans yet for them to visit Australia again (we were one of the least places they played in 2020), but I'm hoping they come back soon - the new tour looks amazing! :)
@@RDMusicExchange oh soz mate forgot you were an aussie,one day soon hopefully.
"The Wall" number one album across the world 1979 to 1980 with NO NOMINATION for a grammy. shame
Really, I never knew that - crazy!
Thanks for watching!
Pink Floyd was my 1st love.
It wasn't my first love, but it was one of the first!
Thanks again mate
Almost every song from the WALL album hit #1. The album itself reigned supreme for almost 5 years!
Good reaction. Great song, and nice shirt dude
Thanks mate!
This is a very good version, but I much prefer it when Roger had a female singer singing the chorus in his later solo tours with a backing band. Those are REALLY great!
Yep, the version from the In The Flesh tour is really good!
Thanks for watching!
Good luck dude, wish ya the best
Nice reaction from you.
Bye far the greatest rock band ever you don’t listen to Pink Floyd you lose yourself in them 🇬🇧
This actually is the best version. 👌
Such a brilliant album.
Indeed!
Thanks for watching!
The first album that i ever listened to was “The Wall”
Must have been an experience for you!
Thanks for watching!
Such a great song. Definitely one of their best and most underrated in my opinion. I think it's total brilliance....but of course, I think that about PF as a whole.
😆
Thanks for watching!
love to see your reaction to Pink Floyd " on the turning away"(1989-07-15)FM by thinkfloyd61. the best non video of the band. Ckeck out some of Daves solo . ' Live at Gdansk", last time Rick Wright played with Dave, "Echoes" solo " On an Island" it's a 10. "the Blue". Dave has a string orchestra backing in.
Thanks for the recommendations and for watching!
The wall album needs to be listen to from start to finish, great reaction nonetheless.
Please rake a look at The Final Cut album. The last album released with the classic 4. A very underated album in my opinion.
Hi,
I am planning to do a complete album listen of another Floyd album very soon.
And I was thinking of breaking down the Wall into sides, because I agree it's hard to listen to some of the great moment in isolation.
But to be honest, I don't see us looking at The Final Cut. Whilst it's got a couple of nice moments, I've never really got on with it. Tried it again last year, but still didn't click with it.
Thanks for watching!
This song is quite evident that it is about a suffocating and overprotective mother, a rather negative figure who hangs like a shadow over her son's life and choices, preventing him from becoming a strong and self-aware man. The reason is clear: she lost her husband in the war and towards her son he pours her care and attention in a morbid way for fear of losing him too. While not directly referring to Roger Waters' mother, who did indeed lose his father in World War II in the landing at Anzio, Italy, the entire record "The Wall" is ultimately an anti-war work lest the children grow up without a father. Indeed, as someone said: "The function of fathers is to prevent mothers from driving their children crazy." To become a man, the child will have to free himself from all these fears and insecurities and break down the very high wall that he has built around himself. Happy New Year from Milan, Italy
Happy New Year to you too!
Thanks for watching!
Have you seen the 'lockdown sessions' Roger has uploaded. They feature the fabulous Jess and Holly from Lucius.
The version of 'Vera / Bring the Boys back Home' is cracking with J & H particularly good.
Yep - they were great!

She seems interested in the lyrics, you should pull them up so she can follow along (lyric videos are trash though, best to go with a lyrics site). This song is all about the lyrics, and the context of the story. This song serves as a great introduction to the concepts and story of The Wall, better than most, as it explicitly describes several of the bricks.
I would recommend When The Tigers Broke Free as another introductory song, as it describes in heart-wrenching detail one of the more under-explored bricks in the wall. Leaving this song off the album was a terrible choice, and is one of the best parts of the movie imo.
Thanks mate.
I do supply the lyrics sometimes - I just thought the vocals on this one were pretty clear, but I guess that comes form me knowing them so well!
Thanks for the suggestion and for watching.
Lets' see if you can guess what PINK Anderson and FLOYD Council, two older black blues musicians from North Carolina, have in common with the band, "Pink Floyd!" What on earth do you think it could it be?
🤔😆
RDME
As you know that Roger has lost his father during WWII when Roger was only 5 months old. His mum had to support he and his brother. According to him, his mum was overprotective of him and his brother like building a "Wall" around them. She worried about losing them. I think that he stated his mum checked on his dates. I know that there are mums would check on women whose sons wanted to date like my mum did that to me just protective and won't see their sons being hurt.
Yep!
Thanks for watching!
EVERY other reactor shows the video. Every single one.
The video is terrible quality and doesn't add anything to the listening experience in my opinion. But you are more than welcome to watch the other shows and enjoy the video there.
Good reaction! 🙏
Two requests:
Pink Floyd - Not Now John

ELOY - Illuminations

Thanks for the suggestions and for watching!
Cheers
I don't think his mother was one of the bricks, she emotionally provided him with the bricks and mortar.
Watch the Movie!
I may show it to Rach one day :)
Thanks for watching.
Rachel you are so beautiful!
Rachel says thanks! :)
please realize this song's NOT a tribute to a loving mother --- it's sarcasm directed to an overprotective mum who keeps her boy isolated from life
4:19 NO F*CKING WAY!
😆
Hello there! I think I found a recording of Mother from this concert here on TH-cam: th-cam.com/video/73UMWoXRbjg/w-d-xo.html.
If I'm not mistaken, this should be it. The picture quality is bad but the sound is remastered I think...
You’re absolutely right, this “live” should not ignore its authentic images at all! What does it matter if they are not of who knows what quality, it is “composition”, “the author who interprets” (Roger) what matters in music ... in a ROCK OPERA then ...
(forgive my english ...)
Awesome - thanks!
I think this is the footage that Roger Waters used on his Wall tour when he played along with "poor old f*cked-up Roger" as he put it.
Never seen it before - nice one!
@@RDMusicExchange I'm an enthusiastic long-time Floydian (since 1975, when I was about 10 years old, my older cousin got me into it) and I like to dig around here on TH-cam looking for anything Pink Floyd related. I'm really surprised at how many interviews and interesting things I find here with Pink Floyd (and people who have come into contact with them). A great interview I saw recently with Alan Parsons about the TDSOM recording or a great press conference with Nick Mason in the US, an interview with Syd Barrett's sister but also interesting "shootouts" between Roger and David... Unfortunately I don't speak English, so I only watch videos with subtitles and write posts using a web translator :-(. Keep it up and I wish you all the best - your fan from the Czech Republic ;-).
@@lubos1207 Thanks mate! Appreciate the support :)
The way you take your time to explain the details is what I love the most about your videos 😍😍❤️ !!! Don't miss out - P r o m o S M !!
That's very nice of you to say so!
I'm trying for appreciation rather than just a reaction from Rach, so I find that context and background helps with that.
Thanks for watching
the wrong concept he does not see his mom as one of the bricks but the one is helping him build the wall, he is revealing his mom as a saint and speaking highly of her. If anyone has issues with their mom swallow your stinking pride and tell her I'm sorry and I love you, one day she will not be there!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hi, sorry, I disagree. But that's cool. Everyone can interpret it there own way - that's the joy of art. :)
Cheers
This song is a scary reminder of Donald Trump -with his WALL
Lovely Mom, but she's a bit a pain in the A...
😆
Thanks for watching!
Motherhood is overrated
Is it though? :)
@@RDMusicExchange yes, and fatherhood is underrated
I hate first reactions when your singing along, maybe its first time for the lady but it spoils the reaction when your singing along man
Oh well
Has to be the worst version of this song I have heard although on this occasion Roger did a great job and David left his best game at home.
Ok.
Thanks for watching
Tottaly disagree, this virson is way up there in my opinion ❤️
I don't Like Waters!!!
So?
one of the best live album ever
