Pink Floyd just assaults you with their sights and sound, and yes vibes - the experience actually shakes your chest and body with sonic vibrations. It's truly an Experience to be a part of a concert such as one of these. "One of These Days" really brings this Experience home.
This piece demonstrates the power of Pink Floyd and what they are capable to play with their huge instrumentals that they have. Amazing song and good reaction!!!!
If Pink Floyd ever gets back together.. I want to experience Pink Floyd for the first time. Live with the both of you...❤ I think you two speak for a lot of us
One of these days is pure power! This version is simply amazing, powerful, colorful and explosive! I see them in the PULSE tour in 1995...probably the best concert ever for me! Love you guys, love your reaction and analysis of the song... Great job😊❤
one of the best Song from Pink Floyd and unbelievable Performance. They are the Top of all Bands and you can not compare with other Musicians. I´m glad to visit the Pulse Concert 1994 in Hannover, Germany. 3 Hours of perfection, this Hours can´t be surpassed from everyone or anything. Shure the best 3 Hours in my Life.
This was my first Pink Floyd concert(not this particular show but this tour). Back then in 1994, there was no social media. Not even really much if an internet. So we didn’t know exactly what to expect. I knew it would be epic, I knew all the songs, I knew there would be a great light show. But there were so many surprising moments where I and everyone else basically had our jaws dropped open in amazement. It was the best night of my life.
i saw them at this show, sat up on the left hand side two thirds of the way back, an absolutely stunning experience, every song tried to blow the roof off the venue! the crowd looked in shock/total awe of what they were experiencing. Then a huge surprise - i was told i was going again the next night - this time two rows from the front, right in the middle - words simply cannot describe what that night was like, it was almost like i was in the show itself, the quadrophonic sound was incredible, this song in particular felt like a physical assault - you could feel the drums on your chest, the lights were blinding. Simply the best night of my life (and i'm 62!) been to loads of gigs before and since, nothing else comes close to this. Your reactions are wonderful, so thoughtful and deeply felt, keep up the good work.
Just like you, I had the chance to attend this show two nights in a row, May 23 and 24, 1994 at the Olympic Stadium in Montreal. As you say, the crowd seemed like hypnotized, almost in a trance throughout the show and even when leaving the stadium. Never have I seen such a stunned crowd at the end of a show, despite the dizzying finale that was "Run Like Hell". I've seen dozens of shows in my lifetime, but Pink Floyd's 1994 show will always be by far the best I've seen.
Thank you for sharing your experience with us. I had the opportunity to see them 1976!, however due to circumstances could not attend. Often wondered what it was like being there.
Another great reaction, I did hear anecdotes of friends who went to the Pulse concert and travelled home in silence as they tried to absorb what they had seen and heard. Watching your videos is like being there with friends. I think those of us that know PF songs have a good understanding of where they can take you.
Father Guido, that was a common phrase (from the 40s and 50s) that exasperated British mum's used to tell their mis-behaving children, according to Nick Mason.
So true, as they are genuinely new to the Pink Floyd phenomenon, not like most reactors... they really bring me back to when I did experience those pieces when they came out.

When I listen to them I feel so chill at the start of the song, by the end my heart is pounding, blood flowing, mind blown! Sometimes they hone in on one emotion and with loving caresses, beat you over the head with it. Other times they grab every emotion available and throw it at you in one song! The greatest of all time.
What incredibly lucky people we are, to think how many millions of years old the universe is, and we just happen to be on this little old rock at the same time as Pink Floyd😉 I've said it before, i love watching your reactions and listening to what you have to say, you both looked totally overwhelmed at the end of this one. I always seem to focus on Nick Mason during this performance who in my humble opinion doesn't get the recognition in the drumming world that he deserves. Might i suggest you take a look at 'Set The Controls For The Heart Of The Sun' from the 1972 live Pompeii concert to see some of Nicks fantastic drumming skills, peace to you both✌
One of the slickest thing ngs I ever did, was to trade two Barbara Streisand tickets for two 6th row/center ticket to this tour when it stopped in Detroit. It was so sublime, that show. Probably the best show I ever saw.
This song ended the first half of the show, and as you could see, a standing ovation. As far as I can recall, this was the only concert I've been to where the band had a raptuous standing ovation just for the first half - not counting the 'rock' concerts where fans were on their feet throughout. It's so great to see you enjoying the music I grew up with and loved too.👍👍😃😃
Thinking out of the box.....it's what makes Pink Floyd stand apart from the rest! Their music is a rich tapestry of pure artisrty and beautiful sound. Superb beyond words!!!
What a great reaction 👏🏼 I just love this song and it’s one of my favorites among many of their songs, but it’s absolutely my favorite instrumental song by Pink Floyd 👌🏼 You guys are amazing ❤
Well this made my day!! Great reaction. You finally got to one of my all-time favourite Floyd tracks, and one of the best versions too!! This song just rocks...there's no other way to describe it! That bass line - driving and infectious, then seeing Mr. Dave Gilmour, smiling just shredding that lap steel guitar! I love the homage to the Dr. Who theme - at the start of the psychedelic bass (that doesn't sound like a bass) part (by the fantastic Tim Renwick). I wish I had seen this live in person!
YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS LOL!!! THIS WAS MY FIRST SONG I REMEMBER HEARING WHEN I WAS 14 YEARS OLD I LOVED THEM THEN I LOVE THEM NOW!!!!!!! NEW SUB HERE TY FOR REACTING TO THEM!!!! BTW IM 60 YEARS OLD
Your reaction was great. In order to really enjoy Pink Floyd, you just have to get involved with what you see and hear. The "Puls" concert was a unique work of art. 🤘🤗
That's exactly what you should feel, a storm and appreciation of the experience and music! congratulations, powerful! the small number of words are enough to convey the song where the music creates the rest of them.
"It's absolutely ridiculous in a good way". Great take. i know a shitload of 70's music, from the big boys down to the one hit wonders. The bass in 70's music was so prevalent that it actually was the instrument that completely made a lot of our favorite music and songs that we remember well. Go back and listen again to all your old favorites on a good system and tell me there was no other instrument that made your foot tap like the bass did. It, along with the backbeat of the drums was what kept people dancin'. The guitars, keyboards,saxes and vocals (think. Paul Mccartney, Pete Townsend, Elton John, Robert Plant, Freddie Mercury, Paul Rogers, David Gilmour etc are amazing. (depending on what band you're listening to) are amazing as well. The late 60's and the 70's was a plethora of amazing music.
You are so f...ng loveable and you show always my type of emotions and i have follow Pink floyd over 45 years! This song is a grand slam and the bass is perhaps my favorite "bass riffs for all time. Pink floyd is not easy but you do a remarkable job. En big hug to you
Pink Floyd es una banda con canciones que,no sé como decirlo, sobre todo en la época actual,la de la velocidad,es difícil de asimilar,pero como te atrape su música,la atmósfera que crean,lo mejor que puedes hacer es disfrutar y buscar todos los matices musicales porque cualquier detalle es importante... hay mucha gente en el escenario y no están de adorno...y los grandes olvidados, técnicos de sonido, iluminación, preparación del escenario...es impresionante el trabajo musical y también el trabajo de los que lo hacen posible, me gusta
3 Version (1) 1972 at Pompeii, (2) this one !994, (3) 2016 Pompeii again with an instrument i have never seen. Floyd was the first to record in 4,8,,16 ,32,64. tracks. They were known for the experimenting with sound, them do it live. Saw 1994 5 times. Critics in 60's said their music would sell when when pigs can fly. hence at the end they push the pigs out of the towers. FYI; this concert was sold out for 14 days in a row. congrads on 50,000 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 1972 Pompeii song "Madenmoiselle Nobs" sings for the first time. Unrehearsed
Their approach to their craft is so intelligent. There is REALLY no other band that compares. There are so many styles and genres . . . but Pink Floyd is in a category that cannot be compared. Thank you for choosing to review this piece !
Hard to believe, but the concert captured for the video is one of the smallest ,in attendance and scope of effects. The sound system is also scaled down. I was fortunate enough to see them 4 times in the momentary lapse of reason tour and three times on the Pulse tour, all of them in outside stadiums, 40k + people... I know I'll never be able to experience that again, and I have been in all Roger, David and Nick's concerts... fabulous concerts on their own right, but those that can not be replicated. I can't wait until you get to experience Echoes in Gdansk by David in 2006, and In the flesh opening of The Wall, by Roger, 2014... breathtaking!
Hey guys, you two are awesome. I love watching your videos, especially Pink Floyd reactions. I'm a 50+ year fan and listen to Floyd constantly. I would like to recommend that you listen to "Careful With That Axe Eugene" from Live at Pompeii in 1971. This is Dave, Rick, Nick and Roger Waters on bass. Another good version would be the Live Embryo concert from 1971 also.
LOVED this reaction👏👏👏 Your after-song analysis is always full of emotions, mainly wonder & exhaustion, after Pink Floyd, but always spot-on. Amazingly, you still have their masterpieces; *Shine On You Crazy Diamond* to do. Please do the album / video version before the live version 👍
I was there one night in '94, what a fantastic evening out. My friend and I dropped two LSD trips each, like you do. Every time those blasts of smoke went off on stage the heat hit your face, making it burn your cheeks 'nearly', I can still feel the heat today, mind blowing performance all round, three cheers to you two thanks
I think you're right: Pink Floyd's music makes demands on a listener's attention that not everyone is willing to pay. Yes, some listen superficially to it and appreciate it in a way, but the depth of the music can only be recognized by attending to what the music brings. On the Meddle album, "One of These Days" is followed by one of the most satisfyingly peaceful songs, "A Pillow of Winds," which I hope you get a chance to hear, keeping in mind that "One of These Days" just preceded it. It's a powerful transition.
"how did they do it?" well, back in the late '60s and early '70s, albums were new. bands and artists had previously been shackled to 3 minute pop songs. suddenly they could go into a studio, with masses of new electronic equipment, and take months to compose an album. so they experimented and experimented, for hours a day, days on end, weeks on end, even before they went into a studio, due it costing a lot of money. Pink Floyd began as an experimental psychedelic band. after Syd Barrett left and David Gilmour joined them, they had to discover a new sound, so they tried all sorts of different things. they just kept experimenting. some things were discovered by accident. if they liked it, they kept it and used it. new distortion equipment was also being developed. so they experimented with them. they were patient. they never hurried. you've noticed what kind of men they are/were. calm, easy going [except Roger] and they would rework things, over and over again, argue about them, argue again and again and again, until they were happy with what they had. that's how they did it. i'm so happy to hear your intelligent reactions. you're definitely my favourites
I first saw Pink Floyd 51 years ago just before they released DSOTM. It was in a smaller rectangular hall in Austin Tx in '71. Imagine hearing this song and others in this hall with a quad sound system so the sound circled completely around you. It was and still is the gold standard by which I measure all concerts.
Almost 30 years later, I am totally certain that none of us remember the hours of queuing in subzero temperatures for tickets to this tour. We only remember the absolute joy of that event. Thank you, Pink Floyd, for the best concert I have ever experienced. Pink Floyd, Montreal loves you always and forever 💖
Your reaction is completely understandable. Most viewers here know P.F. since the beginning and of course nothing surprises us. I was about 14 years old when I first heard this album (Meddle) and it has been a regular on the turntable since that time. If you like this music you have to listen to it more often and of course the complete albums. That was normal back then because there wasn't as much demand as there is today. We sometimes had to wait a year or two (sometimes more) years for the next album, so we kept hearing the same songs over and over again. So it's okay if you (or younger people) can't get in right away. Everything is fine the way it is. Best wishes @all and thanks for sharing another great song by P.F.
Back in the 70's when good quality hi-fi was beyond the price range of most of us and poor quality record players were the norm, me and my mates best guess of what the words were was "one of these days I'm going to dance with the prince of Greece". Also back then, no party really got started until this was played. Nice reaction guys.
"ONE OF THÉSE DAYS I'M GOING TO CUT YOU INTO LITTLE PIECES" WAS AIMED AT IN THE 70s TO A GUY WHO WAS A DJ NAMED (JIMMY YOUNG). NO ONE LIKED HIM IN THE BAND BECAUSE HE NEVER STOPPED TALKING
The phrase “top of their game” gets overused when describing many bands these days, the Floyd sets the bar for all to strive to reach. They’ve been at the top musically and creatively for most of the bands life. Again, your reaction has hit the nail on the head yet again. It’s great to share your experiences on the Floyd journey.
I think they thought inside the box for this song, not outside. The Binson Echo box. They had it, they used it, and they thought: hm. What can we do with that? Like, really do? Today, a piece like this would be a demo for such a machine. A well paid demo
To Andrl: You spoke from „Aliens“. My first contact with Pink Floyd was in 1967 with their song „Astronomy Domine“. The Aliens had landed on planet earth. It was and it is until today a mystical experience to hear the music of them.
Echoes and one of these days were the first released songs of the successful pink floyd style of music and very different with each other. In some way they're overshadowing the band's future. I fully agree that when you start to listen to pink floyd you need to just sit in a calm place, listen and have your attention there for the whole song. And generally progressive rock/metal requires the listener to give some attention and time to the bands before realise whether they like them. You can't judge from a few songs or seconds.
You need to react to the Wall album. The problem is that the musics just make sense if you listen them in order. You need to understand that this album is like a book. In a book you don't read chapters randomly. You start in the 1st chapter and read them in order until the end of the book. The wall is like a book, the songs are chapters, you need to listen to them in order to understand the story. For me is the best album ever.
So nice to watch two intelligent people reacting and understanding their magic music.✌️❤️
Pink Floyd just assaults you with their sights and sound, and yes vibes - the experience actually shakes your chest and body with sonic vibrations. It's truly an Experience to be a part of a concert such as one of these. "One of These Days" really brings this Experience home.

Pink floyd is for me number one till my death.
Et même au delà
One of these days is pure power! This version is simply amazing, powerful, colorful and explosive!
I see them in the PULSE tour in 1995...probably the best concert ever for me! Love you guys, love your reaction and analysis of the song... Great job😊❤
I saw them twice in 1987. In Tampa Stadium, then I drove to Atlanta Ga, and saw them agin 4 days later. It's a 9 hour drive each way..
A true artist will never compromise their art form, that's why Floyd will have amazing musicians and backing singers and a light show 2nd to none. 🤲
When I hear One of These Days I feel this coil inside me wind tighter and tighter. It's a massive song
one of the best Song from Pink Floyd and unbelievable Performance. They are the Top of all Bands and you can not compare with other Musicians.

@@thomassanchez-oo6sb i think it was something like 14 nights

The opening track on the Meddle album. What draws so many fans to Pink Floyd is their intelligent and creative music making.
Thanks guys Pink Floyd the best band ever

My mum & dad went to this concert. They still say it’s the best concert they’ve been to.
Probably the most hypnotic bass ever and with those 2 red circles of light even more so , great reaction 👍
"One of these days I’m going to cut you into little pieces..." What a stinking lyric, especially for being the only one. GREAT reaction yet again.

They were all geniuses. To say the least This was the last time I saw them In concert. ❤David. He is a special human being
Pink Floyd make music in low frequency ITS is that secret of the magic music... Low frequency ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Thankyou guys!
Welcome To The Machine.
I get excited when I see you posted another Pink Floyd reaction. You guys are what I look for in reaction videos! More please 😊

They liked being mysterious because that was part of the allure
I absolutely love your reactions
The first time I saw Pink Floyd was in April 1975, this is the song they opened with. Great song and it got even better from there.
And to think this song was released in 1971 (off the album Meddle).

good point pink floyd are from another planet loved your reaction

@charger348 yes I believe I've seen that one. They are all fantastic!
LOVED this reaction👏👏👏
Your after-song analysis is always full of emotions, mainly wonder & exhaustion, after Pink Floyd, but always spot-on.
Amazingly, you still have their masterpieces; *Shine On You Crazy Diamond* to do.
Please do the album / video version before the live version 👍
Guy Pratt is a genius . His bass os amazing .
For me the best live version of One of these Days is from the Live at Pompeii film. Nick Masons drumming is insane.
I was there one night in '94, what a fantastic evening out. My friend and I dropped two LSD trips each, like you do.

Solo puedo decir que esta version de one of these days supera la capacidad humana de poder sentir alguna emocion mayor
You both looked puzzled and well you should. Floyd has a way of making you think and have an emotional response....true genius.

Pink Floyd began as an experimental psychedelic band. after Syd Barrett left and David Gilmour joined them, they had to discover a new sound, so they tried all sorts of different things. they just kept experimenting. some things were discovered by accident. if they liked it, they kept it and used it. new distortion equipment was also being developed. so they experimented with them. they were patient. they never hurried. you've noticed what kind of men they are/were. calm, easy going [except Roger] and they would rework things, over and over again, argue about them, argue again and again and again, until they were happy with what they had. that's how they did it. i'm so happy to hear your intelligent reactions. you're definitely my favourites
I could not wait for you guys to do this one 😊❤
It’s more than music..it’s pure emotion.
I first saw Pink Floyd 51 years ago just before they released DSOTM. It was in a smaller rectangular hall in Austin Tx in '71. Imagine hearing this song and others in this hall with a quad sound system so the sound circled completely around you. It was and still is the gold standard by which I measure all concerts.
These guys were boys in recovering England. They saw people as one. No one was more deserving than anyone else.
Your wife is soooooo cute!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
One of their best songs in my humble opinion
Almost 30 years later, I am totally certain that none of us remember the hours of queuing in subzero temperatures for tickets to this tour. We only remember the absolute joy of that event. Thank you, Pink Floyd, for the best concert I have ever experienced.
Pink Floyd, Montreal loves you always and forever 💖
"One of these days il cut you up into little pieces". Saw this live in Gothenburg -94, this song hits you like hammer! Well, 99% of their songs does.
At 3:24 time stamp they start planning the Dr.Who tv series theme. Very nicely done!
Your reaction is completely understandable. Most viewers here know P.F. since the beginning and of course nothing surprises us. I was about 14 years old when I first heard this album (Meddle) and it has been a regular on the turntable since that time. If you like this music you have to listen to it more often and of course the complete albums. That was normal back then because there wasn't as much demand as there is today. We sometimes had to wait a year or two (sometimes more) years for the next album, so we kept hearing the same songs over and over again. So it's okay if you (or younger people) can't get in right away. Everything is fine the way it is. Best wishes @all and thanks for sharing another great song by P.F.
Awesome reaction as always
When Meddle came out this whole album hacked our little early 20's and late teens brains to little pieces.
"One of these days i'm gonna cut you into little pieces" i heard that its Nick Masons voice saying that distorted to sound evil
Proper Dr Who in there - nice one even the One of these Days sounds like something from Dr Who!
Great reaction thanks 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Saw this in 94 Tampa Florida
Back in the 70's when good quality hi-fi was beyond the price range of most of us and poor quality record players were the norm, me and my mates best guess of what the words were was "one of these days I'm going to dance with the prince of Greece". Also back then, no party really got started until this was played. Nice reaction guys.
🤣
Hi from California. Can you believe that I missed this concert tour when they came to My State. One of my biggest regrets in life😕✌🏼🇺🇦🇺🇸
I stll love the Dr Who music inserted in this tune.
So I didn't imagine it😊
Hey guys, please react to Mother from Pink Floyd. Very different but very powerful and emotional song. Peace!
One of my favourites. But the version live in Pompei is even better.
Humans think in symbols not words, Floyd perform in Symbols.
In 1971 they were way ahead of their time. Their music works like a drug.
Now you’re getting to the old school Floyd. Right On
"ONE OF THÉSE DAYS I'M GOING TO CUT YOU INTO LITTLE PIECES" WAS AIMED AT IN THE 70s TO A GUY WHO WAS A DJ NAMED (JIMMY YOUNG). NO ONE LIKED HIM IN THE BAND BECAUSE HE NEVER STOPPED TALKING
The phrase “top of their game” gets overused when describing many bands these days, the Floyd sets the bar for all to strive to reach. They’ve been at the top musically and creatively for most of the bands life. Again, your reaction has hit the nail on the head yet again. It’s great to share your experiences on the Floyd journey.
The Pink Floyd, have the 70's.
I think they thought inside the box for this song, not outside. The Binson Echo box. They had it, they used it, and they thought: hm. What can we do with that? Like, really do?
Today, a piece like this would be a demo for such a machine. A well paid demo
Controlled chaos!
You guys are great
To Andrl:
You spoke from „Aliens“. My first contact with Pink Floyd was in 1967 with their song „Astronomy Domine“. The Aliens had landed on planet earth. It was and it is until today a mystical experience to hear the music of them.
Tim Renwick,great guitarist,just as good as David 😘😘
Echoes and one of these days were the first released songs of the successful pink floyd style of music and very different with each other. In some way they're overshadowing the band's future.
I fully agree that when you start to listen to pink floyd you need to just sit in a calm place, listen and have your attention there for the whole song. And generally progressive rock/metal requires the listener to give some attention and time to the bands before realise whether they like them. You can't judge from a few songs or seconds.
You need to react to the Wall album. The problem is that the musics just make sense if you listen them in order. You need to understand that this album is like a book. In a book you don't read chapters randomly. You start in the 1st chapter and read them in order until the end of the book. The wall is like a book, the songs are chapters, you need to listen to them in order to understand the story. For me is the best album ever.
