You're loving those guitar solos by David Gilmore. He's not quick, he doesn't shred. But he chooses every note so carefully, and uses them to maximum effect. If you want some Pink Floyd that will take you places, you should listen to "Echoes". It's twenty-three minutes long, but it has two magnificent Gilmore guitar solos, and more sound effects than you can shake a maraca at. And that's the thing. If you're going to listen to bands like Pink Floyd and Yes, eventually you're going to have to get into their longer compositions, because those are some of their trademark pieces. I can't wait to see you react to those! Peace, Zay!
This song takes me back to the 70's when I was a teenager. My friends and I would sit on this hill to watch the sunset and we would play Pink Floyd along with all our other favorite bands 🤟
Legendary Rock Band, no band like Pink Floyd. They are the GOAT in Progressive Rock history. Pink Floyds music takes the listener on a cerebral journey with every song!
I know you want to do Dark Side as a whole album, and the people suggesting you do are right, that album specifically really does require a complete listen, as the songs are very inter-connected. I also know you have limitations and are unable to do the full album right now. If it helps, you could also do a half album at a time. All of these albums were created with vinyl in mind, which obviously had two sides to the record, meaning bands were forced to put a break in their albums. It's reasonable to listen to Side 1 in one video, and then Side 2 in the next video. Not many albums demand a full playthrough, but Dark Side did. The follow up Wish You Were Here (my favorite) was similar, in that I would recommend doing each side in one sitting. The Wall as well, but that album is a whole other story (literally). The Wall is where Hey You is from.
Entire albums are the way to go. I'm jealous, your getting to hear all this great music for the first time. Check out the Pulse concert, on TH-cam, they play the entire Dark Side album live. Some of the greatest guitar solos ever.
Been waiting for you to get to more Floyd! Great job bud. You are correct that you should listen to PF albums all the way through (however you have to work it with copyright restrictions), but you can cherry pick a few songs here and there. I would recommend Comfortably Numb live at the Pulse concert in 1994. You will need to watch the video so that you don't miss the light show. Best guitar solo you have ever heard. Best of luck.
5:30 "When I listen to these dudes, it's like I'm not even here." Agreed. Also, I think an acceptable word for what you're looking for is "transcendental." The whole is worth more than the sum of its parts. My recommendation is for you to listen to the Animals album, straight on through. Hope you're doing well, my friend, and good luck in school!
This is why I watch reaction videos. I'm not just saying this because I'm getting old (53 and counting...), but I just don't get the same kind of emotion from the stuff that's being put out today, even though I try. Typically, I will hear a new song on the radio, and after about 30 seconds I change it. Barely any creativity, just everyone copying on another. Now... I'll hop down off of my soap box and say that you definitely need to do "Dark Side of the Moon", but do it as a full-album review, playing each song in order as it was meant to be heard. It will change you. For single songs, I'd like to see you do "Learning to Fly". Also: if you haven't done any RUSH, you should. Start with the radio hits and then go deeper into their catalog. Legions of Rush fans will join your channel, I promise you. You will also find gems that affect you like Pink Floyd, but like Floyd, paying attention to the lyrics and song meaning is key to getting the full experience.
I was lucky enough to see Pink Floyd perform The Wall in LA February 1980. More Floyd to check out Cirrus Minor The Nile Song Cymbaline Fat Old Sun Julia Dream
Check their Dark Side of the Moon album ....it was in the top 200 billboard charts for over 700 consecutive weeks....1973 to 1988....my favorite cut is money
Enjoy your PF reactions! Gotta get to 1994 Pulse concert, songs: - SORROW - COMFORTABLY NUMB - LEARNING TO FLY - HIGH HOPES - COMING BACK TO LIFE - TIME - SHINE ON YOU CRAZY DIAMOND - RUN LIKE HELL Love it, keep diving!!
You should listen to the full live concert PULSE from 1994… pulse do full album reviews of the albums…. You have Animals to explore yet! Your mind will never be the same after listening and understanding Pink Floyd catalogue….. then you’ve got Dave’s solo albums!!! wow!!! So much to listen to my friend!
dude there was a sound in like the first 5 seconds of the video that sounded just like my dog barking but i know my room is closed so it scared the shit out of me and i jumped up and my heart rate spiked
Hey Zay. Took my son to Pittsburgh in 2012 to see The Wall tour. Roger Waters did the whole album....front to back....in order. EPIC ALBUM = EPIC SHOW.
If you like the music, the art, the continuos from song to song, from album to album, please listen to Comfortably Numb live at the Pulse concert in 1994.
unn earthy??? 😅 your a good kid/dude.... im old... listen to this shit when it all first came out... im am glad this awsome music isnt falling on deaf ears.... you and your friendDO appreciate GREAT music.... i could hang wit you... both... seem cool... enjoy ur journey..... peace my friend... and dive into queen when you get the chance... specifically for me....the album.... Queen... News of the World... the song... "Spread Your Wings".... i promise you wont be dissapointed.... and while ur at it.... deep dive into Aerosmith too!!! Toys in the Attic, Dream On and Mama Kin... oh and Train Kept A Rollin... ok.. peace out...
Nice one Zay. As for artwork. In addition to Floyd, checkout album art from Yes. All good. A must, if you can, is bassist and lyricist for Floyd, Roger Waters has toured the Floyd playlist as a solo act for many yrs. With that said, checkout “Pigs/in 3parts live from Mexico City. It’s insanely good. Or “In The Flesh.” Be well. 🤘😎
Pink Floyd - Dogs!!! With Lyrics!! You haven't reacted to anything yet from the Animals album. One of the best PF songs (depending on who you ask). 18 min of non-stop Pink Floyd!!!
I know you've heard Comfortably Numb, but there's nothing that matches the version from their Pulse show in 1994. There's are some high quality versions on youtube (avoid the higher view counts, the quality is low). The guitar solo is considered the best, and for good reason. Their live show was on par with their studio work, and equally creative and beautiful.
Justin...you really should check out the other version from Delicate Sound of Thunder.....even just the audio. It's actually better in my opinion. Gilmour does back to back leads ,rather than just one . have fun :) Peace & Love
@Newfie 4444 What do you mean "back to back leads rather than just one"? I'm not trying to be that guy, I literally am not sure what you mean as the two versions are almost identical in construction and layout, with slight differences yet completely different outro solos. Cheers!
Love Them David Gilmore Guitar Solo's!! 🎶!! 😁 You Should look up What Alice Cooper Said About Pink Floyd! It's Funny, yet Profound! Till next Time! Peace, & Love ✌️
I’m telling you, white people just love seeing black people enjoying white music. It’s true! I’m not even being cynical, I think it’s a great thing. Especially when you factor in the generational gaps, I can’t think of a better way to bring people together than these reaction videos. Nice work! There is much more to cover with Pink Floyd, and when you are eventually done, there are of course many more bands. My recommendation? Hmmm, I’d have to choose something obscure, like the Relics compilation. That stuff is a real trip, less polished but some very interesting songs. I like Julia Dream.
I think you're looking for the term otherworldly. Probably because they're not from here! They're from some other planet where music is actually the language and nobody speaks with words they only use instruments there!

I was a teenager in the 80 but we did the same things.
We had cassettes tho instead of 8 tracks lol.
Emily, it sounds like there might of been a little weed involved 🤔 my teenage years were also spent in the 70"s.😀
@@werewolvesofsanger4649 l'm not going to lie, there was a lot of weed, among other things, if you know what l mean 😒✌

"Together we stand, divided we fall." Isn't that the truth!!
Legendary Rock Band, no band like Pink Floyd. They are the GOAT in Progressive Rock history.
Pink Floyds music takes the listener on a cerebral journey with every song!
“Have a cigar” is one of my fav 🥰
One of mine too!
A really great song & video to react to is Pink Floyd Echoes Live At Pompeii. It's a long one, but it is guaranteed to blow your mind.
gotta do the full version. So many reactors only do the first half...
I know you want to do Dark Side as a whole album, and the people suggesting you do are right, that album specifically really does require a complete listen, as the songs are very inter-connected. I also know you have limitations and are unable to do the full album right now.

Pink Floyd have been part of the musical back drop to my life. Their albums (on vinyl) are a huge part of my collection.
Entire albums are the way to go. I'm jealous, your getting to hear all this great music for the first time. Check out the Pulse concert, on TH-cam, they play the entire Dark Side album live. Some of the greatest guitar solos ever.

ABSOLUTELY CANNOT BE a full-on Floyd fan these days WITHOUT seeing SOMETHING from their live “ PULSE” shows or live “ECHOES Live at Pompeii (1977??)”
Pink Floyd's music as you felt it just transports you into a world of new sonic experiences. So much more to discover by them!
I love that someone from another continent is vibing to these songs the same way as me... music brings everyone together ❤️
So true! ❤️
Great band, monster hits.
Deep dive? If you're serious about that then you gotta do Echoes (studio version) from their album Meddle 🔥
Shine on you Crazy Diamond, you need this
Love it! This was always road trip music so I remember falling asleep in the backseat to this stuff.
Nice reaction,you make it easy to tell how you feel.Anyways thank you for doing this one, and have a great evening
Pink Floyd is more mellow, they are great to listen to & relax.
I think the word you are looking for is transcendent. I'm with you, bro.
Must watch pink floyd. Echoes live at pompei
I enjoy the fact that you dig Pink Floyd. Instead of telling you what to listen to next, I'd rather just follow your own evolution.

Check out echoes pt1 and 2 live at pompeii 1971 ! Awesome! Or comfortably numb live at pulse 1994 Awesome lights and Awesome solo
Check their Dark Side of the Moon album ....it was in the top 200 billboard charts for over 700 consecutive weeks....1973 to 1988....my favorite cut is money

- HIGH HOPES
- COMING BACK TO LIFE

add SORROW to that list. 🙂
Ethereal is how I like to describe their music. It fits very well.
Astute observations .
Love the journey .
"Hey you, out there on the road always doing what you're told, can you help me?" 😉
My second favorite rock band from my highschool years. Led and Pink were the flavor in those years. Still good stuff 👍🏿

Great job and break down of Floyd. Where are you now? Took a break?
Hey Zay. Took my son to Pittsburgh in 2012 to see The Wall tour. Roger Waters did the whole album....front to back....in order. EPIC ALBUM = EPIC SHOW.
Shine on you crazy diamond - from the pulse concert. You won't come back.
A new Floydian! Congrats!
I’d suggest the live version of their song Mother
Someone once said that the gutair is actually a part of David Gilmore, I believe it
Also check out Jeff Beck. Thelonius, AIR Blower or Constipated Duck. He will blow you mind...
If you like the music, the art, the continuos from song to song, from album to album, please listen to Comfortably Numb live at the Pulse concert in 1994.
Love the channel. Try The Smiths - How soon is now
High hopes is one of my fave Pink Floyd songs, would love to see if you love it as much as me
You might like the song Sine On You Crazy diamond the animated one, it totally slays
And you are wearing headphones. 👍
Other unworldly is what you were looking for...👍❤🤙
i think you should check out Kaleo - I Can't Go on Without You (live on 89.3 The Current)
Watch them live Pulse concert 1994
Where you at man? I just subbed
Listen to the whole Album...
The Word you are looking for Is 'Etherial'
I don't know if you do album reactions, but I think Meddle is their top album. You won't be bored with that one. Animals, too.
Let’s do Dark side of the Moon ASSP !! No more teasing !! Let’s Go!! It’s my total Fav!!⭐️

thats a fretless bass. incredible song
Really difficult for me to pick a favorite Pink Floyd song but if forced to I would pick "High Hopes"

Try "High Hopes", which is abeautiful classic and then do the Nightwish "high Hopes" cover which is just awesome too but very different.
I think you'd like "Sugaree" or "They Love Each Other" by the Grateful Dead. I'd reccomend you react to more dead stuff, you'll love it!
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Pink Floyd - Dogs!!! With Lyrics!! You haven't reacted to anything yet from the Animals album. One of the best PF songs (depending on who you ask). 18 min of non-stop Pink Floyd!!!

When the keyboardist Richard died , David knew Floyd was done. Sad , as he was so important. Such a big force to lose. Like Zeppelin losing Bonham.
Psychedelic? Perhaps?
👍👍
Don't forget animals pink floyd. Must listen
You have to react to Dogs bro

Not all Pink Floyd is good...the middle years are amazing!
Few bands reached Pink Floyd's ceiling. But few bands have a basement as dank and cobwebbed as Floyd too.
