Ray Wilson | High Hopes (Pink Floyd cover) (official 2021 video)

- The year “Song for a friend” album was released everywhere. In February 2016 the original idea for the album title still was "Backseat Drivers”. It was supposed to be a double album: one disc with acoustic music and a second one with a "rockier electric side". At the eleventh hour the decision was to split the two, in order to give the acoustic part (the one which would become the "Song for a Friend” album) the attention it deserves. Released in June 2016, it was followed in September of the same year, by the “rock part" as a stand-alone new album called "Makes Me Think of Home”.
“Song for a friend”, with its ten unreleased acoustic tracks, includes as closing number, a well-known gem: a stripped-unplugged cover of the amazing Pink Floyd's "High Hopes”, which ends the album, exactly as happened in Floyd’s 1994 “The Division Bell”.
A fan favorite, with a stunning Uwe guitar solo, presented here by a new 2021 (sort of) video, to accompany you in a beautiful and “Floydian” journey, in order to celebrate the "5th anniversary" of a very important and beloved album.
“Forever and ever”...

Absolutely gorgeous! It is incredibile how you successfully managed to keep the heavy impact on the chorus without drums. Stay safe! Warm Greetings from Romania!
You make again a very great job Ray.One of the most beautifully Pink Floyd songs.
Long life to David, Roger and Nick
you are not very fond of Rick, are you?
@@LeonFAG-fd4vk Maybe he didn't mention Rick since he passed away in 2008. Loved Rick's playing and composing. While Roger and Dave receive a lot of the attention focused on them, Pink Floyd would not be the same without Rick and Nick. David has said he will no longer record or tour under the Pink Floyd name in honor of Rick W.
@@LeonFAG-fd4vk you are not very aware of Rick passing away in 2008, are you?
Very Nice!!!
Beautiful 💘
Well done! This is such a great song. You've done a fine job of capturing the atmosphere!
Absolutely amazing
Very nice Ray - well done
Risky song to cover, but Mr Wilson did it! Stunning visuals and slightly but carefully changed mix. Beautiful, thanks!
What a great Cover !!!!
Exellent 👍
Excellent cover. Thank you! 👍
Great job a great video one of the best I've seen great job again
Beautifull, Ray.
Beautiful interpretation!
Thanks Ray, your beautiful voice gives a perfect credit to this great song!
Great voice!
Great voice. When Ray joined genesis I had "high hopes" they could do a great job together as Ray could easely sing old Peter songs, instead they released only 1 album that was not worst then last genesis I can't dance but anyway was not enough to decide to carry on. But I think it was Tony decision to give up. By the way great voice Ray...
Well done ✌️
❤ the best Version
Amazing!!!!!
Good!
I love your Music!
Svaka čast 👍
Great video, great cover
Great version and lovely video
Oh yeah.
Your voice is perfect, congratulations.
Спасибо! Любимая музыка любимой группы поюс один из любимейших голосов!
Thanks Ray, love to hear your wonderful voice again. Very nice video to this nice interpretation.
Best wishes from Cologne.
Nicely done..
Thanks Ray. Adds an even deeper wrinkle of melancholy and lost youth. That acoustic guitar is great. And your voice of course, straining the melodic bow of sorrow. Then the electric guitar brings one crashing down in the end. Extraordinary version! And the video accompanies the feelings very well and is visually stunning; altogether emotionally very stirring!
Great cover Ray! As usual you nailed it
Yer great ray .end of
Was für ein tolles Video.
Vielen Dank Ray
Hope to see you again soon, I miss your concerts 😩
Czasem ogromne ryzyko wychodzi na dobre 👍 To może kolejny krok - polska wersja tego utworu? 😁
I really like this version of High Hopes. Why? It doesn't sound like the original. Ray made a very own version of this song and is very emotional.
Vraiment bien. Voice music video
Excellent !!!!
Magnifico.. Muchas gracias Ray
Wonderful version of the song, brilliant 🤗🤗🤗❤️❤️❤️🙏🙏🙏
Great version Ray ..your voice fits this track like a glove..
A very moving rendition

Great song, great cover, great video!!!👏👏👏
Wow..thank you for this great Video :-)
Precioso tema.
These moments, when the video exceeds the music quality, in this case, interpretation. And you keep watching.

Does anyone realize how appropriate it is that he is singing this very song?
Marvellous! Love this version Ray.
Fantastic Ray

Oh man, what a nice way to end this day...this is awesome, all of it: singing, playing, video, although noone beats Pink Floyd, sry
