Final Cut is the most emotional album from rock and roll history. The engenering and the way Roger sings turn tears on my face. This album is a Lost jewel in a world Full of junkies and war. Peace please.
Yes, I bought this album on cassette and played it in my walkman(battery cassete player with tini head phones) over and over again, and again and again.. I was 16 yrs... It became part of me if I may say so.🥰 ❤❤
I used to play this on my Walkman on my way to high school. Just like ti did then and still does, there are songs which just make me tear up and stir so many emotions. This is a brilliant album.
Love the final cut movie and songs, in my opinion its a few of the best and most underappreciated group of songs that pink floyd made. I think more would like it if it was put out there more alongside dark side of the moon and the wall albums, but, thats my two cents....and the one person who felt it was appropriate to click the thumbs down button, shame on u, obviously not a true floyd fan like i am. My whole life their music has been in my blood and kept me going year after year. Ill be a fan till i die!
@Brian Stefanski The album was well promoted in 1983. It's just a very unique album that attracts a very niche audience. It's political views are controversial & omnipresent. Not exactly full of radio friendly tracks to drive sales to the levels of the Mega-albums you mentioned. Regardless, it is underrated and afterwards Roger left the band.
Brian Stefanski I completely agree with you it’s a true underrated master piece, I think what makes it so great is that this album was Waters state of mind and his only way to communicate it was through these songs. Bloody amazing in my opinion
@@rlgnoles1 i wasnt born until 1984, so i didnt witness or experience when these albums they created were released, but when i was around 17 i had a buddy that i would hang around with and every weekend we would go out to this field way out with some other buddies of ours and light a bonfire and drink and smoke and do what kids that age do when hanging out like listen to music and chill. Well, my buddy was big time into 80s rock, hes the best guitar player i know of and he would play a ton of different songs, but pink floyd was his favorite. Well, from that time on till now, i am just blown away and hooked on pink floyd, the songs never get old. The music they produce along with their vocals have a way of just going deep into the heart and soul, like theyre alive somehow. Now, i turn 36 on July 23, and have a child. Shes 1
@@rlgnoles1 sorry about that, it sent before i was finished. Anyway, my daughter is 10 and i have been playing pink floyd for her since the first day she was born, on the way home from hospital, i was playing pink floyd for her, and she loves it just as much as i do, and she has her friends listening to it lol. Its amazing, the power of music, its just amazing if u ask me....
@@Householdreef i dunno if it was Roger Waters that had the strange and misunderstood influence in the music or if it was Sid Barrett. Sid was slowly losing his mind due to drug abuse and i think to an extent he was forgetting who he really was or used to be. Its a shame because he ended up spending the rest of this life from 18 or 20 years old inside psychiatric facilities because he wouldnt be able to function in the real world. His influence was a bit different than roger waters pink floyd. Sids music almost resembles The Beatles style, then when roger took over it is like the music we're all familiar with. Either way, both Waters and Barrett songs are great and I've very grateful to my buddy for introducing me to their music....
I bought this cassette when it was first released and literally wore it out to the point it wouldn't play anymore. Then bought the CD as soon as it hit the shelves and listened to it a few hundred times more. Still one of my top 10 CD's ever. I never knew that there was short movie though until just now.
I had 'The Wall' on cassette and this one as well. And 'The Pros And Cons Of Hitchhiking' too. Pink Floyd and Roger Waters kept me sane all those years! I'm 65 now. 😊👍❤
@@nbmooselovers my guess is you only think you arr sane. most likely you are high degree brainwashed and fooled and fooled over and over and over again. as it is codingly depicted in fletcher memoRIal home ;))
Nice to still have the Album & it's an excellent musical masterpiece and the story just plays out while the lyrics give us the imagery to imagine what his thoughts on those old War years ... Someone took all my vinyls when i was away i mean 100's of singles EP's rare Beatles in german album the 1st Square coloured single Joe Jackson,s White Album I'll do time if i catch this lad , i still have a stack Pioneer 1989 stereo n nothing to play on it altho i can use the phone on it via the data button n a double ended jack lead 😅..

The album is amazing. A real masterpiece and a comments on the state of world affairs in the early 1980s. A rock group that could go from magical realism to experimental. PF is a band that evolved, changed, and was never stuck.
This album moves me more than any other PF album. So grateful to hear Roger play Two Suns this tour. Obscured By Clouds is my second favorite album. Nick covered alot of that. Great year for live music!
Я помню как прийдя домой поставил кассету и надел наушники , я так ждал нового альбома PF и вот наконец я могу его услышать...Мама и папа смотрят телевизор, они ещё живы ...А я до сих пор слушаю ❤😢
The fact that it is an absolutely _scathing_ political commentary on 80s British and world politics aside, I think this was really one of their best albums. When I read that they weren't themselves too pleased with it, I find that shocking; it's a _great_ album!
Not just the critics, David Gilmour also. Probably something to with his limited input and where the band where at the time. I personally like it, but there are five or six better studio albums.
The band members, Gilmour and Mason, didn't like this experience. It's a good album, but almost a Waters solo effort. That's why this album is not a favorite for most of the fans.
Some may say that they like it more than the Wall. The Wall was way over played at that time and continued well into the late 80s.But you had to live it then & be listening to the radio. Mostly all Boston Stations. When it came out I was old enough to remember going to the theater & seeing the film. The film stands the test of time. Nothing comes close for films with soundtracks that were created from a film perspective save for The Who & The Beatles. Both the Wall & The Final Cut were well ahead of their times. This Album never received regular air play on any stations that I recall so that makes a big difference with today's perspective as it has never been heard again until you watched it here. Mainstream & Independent radio just didn't play any of it! When you turned on your radio back you just had so much to choose from. Now seeing this again while listening to the story he sings, really blows you away!
I would say it's Roger water's best solo album, but Pink Floyd's worst. Depends how muhc you can endure Roger's 'singing' voice and incessant mourning for his dead dad
Because it was not PF anymore, it was a Roger Waters "solo" album, other members were barely music players. Don't get me wrong, I love the album, but I will repeat, it was not PF anymore, it was a one man show. All members were collaborating for the music before The Wall (yeah yeah, Waters was the lyrics master) but slowly, Waters started to disregard them after Wish You Were Here. Ironically, he became sort of an "authoritarian" with his mates.
Classical music gives me the urge to cry because of how beautiful it is. But this makes me want to cry on a very deep and sad level. This album has helped me through some dark times it feels good embracing those deep thoughts of loneliness, solitude, sadness and trauma. 5/5 album.
il piu' bel disco dei PF.non importa quello che possono dire presunti critici o esperti del settore. the final cut per me e' il vertice assoluto.grande Roger.
...sono un fan dei PF da moltissimo tempo , aime sono vecchietto, sono d accordo con te il miglior album dei pink ...sottovalutato dai più...ma la voce, i testi e gli assoli di david qui ai massimi livelli!!
It would have been great to film the rest of the songs too! Fantastic album. I don't understand why there are so many angry with this album. It was the naturally follow-up for The Wall. When you have such a great and succesful album as The Wall, you naturally want the next album to share that same style that made The Wall famous. I think all the haters don't realise that they would have liked each song from "The Final Cut" if it would have been on "The Wall".
Most of the negativity came from the fact that Pink Floyd were moving further away from a collaborative team to one man dictating the terms and the rest filling the roll of backing musicians, and not everyone in the band were aligned with the messaging.
The argument was that Roger was a bullying asshole and wanted to tour with the Wall forever but the rest got sick of the same gig year in year out so they had to evolve somehow & yes The Final Cut is a follow on album n a great one at that. Richard Wright was a gent & Nick Mason but angry child Roger stayed eh angry ... Pity.
@@stevengaddis1362Roger the bullying asshole .... Had to get away from hiding behind Roger's Wall ... its his Wall not Pink Floyd's... Ah well it was an unnecessary tantrum that lasted decades ... But Us fans lost out.... i often wonder what could've been. ?
The Final Cut has always been my favorite Pink Floyd if I have a favorite. I love every album, but this one really scratches me where I itch. Maybe it's just because you never hear it...love it. Thanks for posting this - never knew there was film
Its weird…i honestly think theres a group of us that just GET and FEEL this album while the rest of the world including the critics can’t fathom. You either do or you don’t..no middle ground.
@@SuchAClassicGirl-dx2ip I love amused to death too. I listen to this album more than I do any other pf album. I love them all but this one is my favourite
I share a birthday with Roger. This album was given to me after graduating boot camp in 1986. "Did they expect us to treat them with any respect?! They can polish their metals and sharpen their smiles, and abuse themselves playing games for awhile. Boom, Boom. Bang, Bang lie down your dead."... "Are ya having a nice time?" The Fletcher Memorial Home. (For Eric Fletcher Waters) "In the Pink" (Vimeo) for Roger's grandfather, George Henry Waters (This is not a Drill) Nothing has changed. Thank You for posting.
Roger, I'm so sorry for the loss of your father and grandfather to warmongers. "A Conspiracy of Silence speaks Louder than Words"... Dr. Winston O Boogie. (Louder than words is the last Pink Floyd song on The Endless River concept album.) The Endless River. Forever and ever. ~ High Hopes
@@ssrs0pus the Endless River is still relatively unknown even among Floyd fans. Many wont give it a chance because its all instrumentals until the final song.

Roger Waters' debut solo album, entitled "pink floyd the final cut", featuring David Gilmour on guitars and Nick Mason on drums. That's how it always felt to me and as the years go by it seems it's also how it has always been.
Tuve la suerte de adquirir el álbum en el momento en que se publicó, quedé atónito. En principio me pareció un álbum muy obscuro y confuso, pero luego me di cuenta que es un álbum bellamente paranoico y depresivo, un álbum orquestal sublime con arreglos orquestales increíbles y estas características lo diferencia de los otros álbumes de la banda. Hoy en día me sigue fascinado y me hace recordar el primer momento que lo escuché. Amo The Final Cut.
Every time I hear the sax solo in the Gunner's Dream I picture the mother bawling her lungs out. At the end of the solo, it sounds like someone blowing her nose after all the crying....
I absolutely love this video. Years since I have seen it, I have an original video version, I am going to download this to my phone. Thank you immensely for the memories it's brought back for me. Shine on
Anos 80 uns amigos meus e eu,fomos de ônibus para praia em Santa Catarina RS,e colocamos uma fita do The Final CUT...chegamos lá bem bêbados...Foi uma doidera só....Todos do ônibus gostaram do som....Paz no Mundoooooooo
Fantastic video, which I'd never seen before. Roger is one of the few who stayed true to the dream. He saw what was happening and screamed it out. He did not "go along to get along" like so many other 60s stalwarts still around. They killed the dream all right, but Roger didn't take it lying down. Roger was the soul and engine of the Floyd. A great survivor. Stop the killing now.
Haven't listened to this album in decades. Seeing it again now, I am astounded how prescient it was back in the early 80s. Sadly, things have not improved and Waters is nothing if not consistent and you have to admire that. Also musically massively underrated.
what a talented person has shifted mentally. Either he’s talking to himself, or he belongs in a psychiatric clinic. Does he know better from London what is happening in Palestine? What is this rampant support for cockroaches? it's not clear
I love Pink Floyd. For me this isn't only rock music they have made, but definatelly a fantastic mix of symphony, philosophy, perfect literacy and rock. For me, if there is such thing as "Music from God" - this is it. I've memorised most of the PF songs, but TFC ones are absolutely my favourites. Incredible in every way. The separation of the two geniuses Roger and David has been proved to be a bit damaging for PF as we know it. Yes, "The Division bell" was really beautiful album, but we can only imagine the tons of incredible music, the World have lost, as a result of the separation of those two Giants. I might be wrong, but sometimes it seems that Nick Mason is the only person, who enjoys Roger's absence. Pity. We can only hope they will continue producing their Godly music. May God bless you all.
When The Final Cut was released I was at the record store and got the very first copy when it arrived. I have to admit that it didn't immediately hit me. After The Wall this was something very different. Being the days before the internet I knew nothing of the drama going on within the band and it was coming to an end. I still cannot regard this as an official Pink Floyd album. It's a Roger Waters solo album with Dave Gilmour and Nick Mason making only cameo appearances and replaced by the soundscape and 3D effects. It doesn't feel like a collaborative effort and is another example of Roger airing out his own obsessions and hang ups. It took me several listens to appreciate the album, but it's one I very seldom listen to. As far as the videos go, good luck trying to catch them on MTV. If they were ever played it was usually shown very late in the evening after they've given the latest Michael Jackson video a much needed rest. When Dave was permitted to play, his solos are truly haunting. It's sad they came to such a bitter end. When you objectively look at their solo careers neither have ever topped what came before, both relying heavily on those glory years, especially Roger who seems to be constantly touring a version of Dark Side or The Wall because his solo work is unlikely to fill stadiums and fill his ego. I saw him about twenty-five years ago and ended up walking out well before the end. He must have played at least three quarters of The Wall. It was boring. Plus it was a very stripped down production that had no props or even the circular screen if my memory serves me correctly.
I do not know why this album is not most known, it's in par with the Wall to me. I'm in my 50s and Pink Floyd is still the most amazing band i ever heard, it give me chills, smiles, sadness, excitment... nothing else that can come in my ears do me so many sensations.
For me, this is their best album.So what if the whole by Waters. It is a beautiful touching album. You can feel all the regrets about losing your father on this album.
I recommend watching the 2014 concert video of The Wall, for further exploration of makes Roger Waters tick. His grandfather was killed in WWI when his father Eric was 2 yrs old. Mixed with concert video of The Wall in it's entirety Roger makes a pilgrimage to Anzio beach head. Incredible performance. The Final Cut is the continuation & Requiem & soft touchdown landing after the wall is torn down. Incredible lyrics especially on The Gunners Dream!
I spent almost 40 years listening to these songs without knowing this film existed. Maybe thats partly why, to me, these images don't align with the music at all.
@@rileyhhj9297love this album when listened as a Roger Waters solo work it was in all but name. Sits very nicely with Amused To Death which feels very much its sequel. In my opinion The Final Cut doesn’t sit well with the rest released with the Pink Floyd Brand apart from The Wall. Nowhere near enough input from the rest of the band, creatively or musically.
Wow. Not many people say that. I think it's a great album as well. Not my favourite (that has to be DSOTM) but I'm a huge fan of it. Roger is a musical genius.
I had no idea they even made this movie. IMPO this and The Wall to a lesser extent are more Roger Waters solo albums with Pink Floyd providing backing then actual PF albums. Still fantastic. :)
This isn't Roger Waters solo album the wall on the other hand was written by Rodger Waters at the same time he wrote the pros and cons of hitchhiking he took both of the wall and pros and cons of hitchhiking and presented them to the band and said pick one for Pink Floyd to do and I will do the other one solo they pick the wall he did pros and cons of hitchhiking solo and that's the story Final Cut may sound or feel to you like a solo album but these other two actually were...
The record sleeve said “The Final Cut by Roger Waters. Performed by Pink Floyd.” That says it all. Then he tried to kill Pink Floyd and failed. Losers weepers. 🤷🏻♂️
Sure, it's more of a Roger solo album, but still a very good album with some outstanding guitar work from David. I admit at first I didn't like the album as much as the previous 3 albums, but it certainly grew on me. Unless you have the right speakers and room to listen to it, I've always thought it best to listen to it with a good set of headphones.
In 2024, you could remake this with modern images of the current global political and social media situations and it would still 100% hold up. The brilliance of great songwriting
Um álbum profundo, extremamente bom mas extremamente depressivo, pessoas sensíveis não devem ouvi-lo, ouvi centenas e centenas de vezes, dá pra dizer que mudou o rumo da minha vida, acho que me arrependo de tê-lo conhecido.
A very, very, very, English album. Can't listen to it without envisioning the English countryside. It's there in every word. The magnificent and the tragic. Roger did it here with this undeniable collection of songs and moods and feelings.
Only US BRITISH, UNDERSTAND THIS ALBUM, IT IS VERY ENGLISH, REMINDS ME WHEN OF WHEN I WAS A KID, NO WORRIES, ALL YOUR FAMILY WAS AROUND, THEN YOU GET OLDE AND ALL THE FAMILAR FACES THAT YOU KNEW AND LOVED, ONE BY ONE LEAVE YOU, I REALLY DO WISH I COULD HAVE THOSE TIMES AGAIN.
July 14, 2024 😎✌️ I've Loved This Album since I 1st heard it in 1983. I was in 6th grade when my friend said, You Gotta Hear This; then dropped the needle on Not Now John. A couple of these songs would become an anthem of sorts, as I entered into my HS Years. The Remastered CD has When the Tigers Broke Free; loved it in The Wall and sets perfectly on this album ✨️ 🎶

No other album moves me to tears. I'm not even sure why it does.

So underrated a great floyd album
Is it a Floyd album?
I’ve always considered THE WALL, THE FINAL CUT and THE PROS AND CONS OF HITCHHIKING as three chapters of the same book.
One of my favourite Roger Waters / Floyd album. A personal masterpiece of an album.

It would have been great to film the rest of the songs too! Fantastic album. I don't understand why there are so many angry with this album. It was the naturally follow-up for The Wall. When you have such a great and succesful album as The Wall, you naturally want the next album to share that same style that made The Wall famous. I think all the haters don't realise that they would have liked each song from "The Final Cut" if it would have been on "The Wall".
Most of the negativity came from the fact that Pink Floyd were moving further away from a collaborative team to one man dictating the terms and the rest filling the roll of backing musicians, and not everyone in the band were aligned with the messaging.
The argument was that Roger was a bullying asshole and wanted to tour with the Wall forever but the rest got sick of the same gig year in year out so they had to evolve somehow & yes The Final Cut is a follow on album n a great one at that. Richard Wright was a gent & Nick Mason but angry child Roger stayed eh angry ... Pity.
@@stevengaddis1362Roger the bullying asshole .... Had to get away from hiding behind Roger's Wall ... its his Wall not Pink Floyd's... Ah well it was an unnecessary tantrum that lasted decades ... But Us fans lost out.... i often wonder what could've been. ?
one of the best album's PINK FLOYD
im with you brian, does not really get any better than this , roger is a genius ,
The Final Cut has always been my favorite Pink Floyd if I have a favorite. I love every album, but this one really scratches me where I itch. Maybe it's just because you never hear it...love it. Thanks for posting this - never knew there was film
Its weird…i honestly think theres a group of us that just GET and FEEL this album while the rest of the world including the critics can’t fathom. You either do or you don’t..no middle ground.
@@SuchAClassicGirl-dx2ip I love amused to death too. I listen to this album more than I do any other pf album. I love them all but this one is my favourite
I share a birthday with Roger.
This album was given to me after graduating boot camp in 1986.

I also got out of boot camp in ‘86, when the post-WW II Cold War fears were still very much alive.
@@ssrs0pus the Endless River is still relatively unknown even among Floyd fans.
Many wont give it a chance because its all instrumentals until the final song.

So, if there were Aboriginal Humans in "Australia 60 thousand years ago, Who were the people in "Africa" then? Pink Floyd ideology and esoteric ideologies led me to the Plasma/Electric Universe hypothesis and Dane Calloway (I'm just here to make you think") d0t com (also on this tube.)
The 10th grade teacher in the public school I went to, He (for some reason) had US listen to The Wall about THEM in 1984. (Yes, 1984, George.)

The 60s hippie movement was to stop this rise in civil rights for the Aboriginals on this side of the planet.

Roger Waters' debut solo album, entitled "pink floyd the final cut", featuring David Gilmour on guitars and Nick Mason on drums. That's how it always felt to me and as the years go by it seems it's also how it has always been.
Bellissimo album , mi è piaciuto subito e continuo ad ascoltarlo
One of my favourite albums of all time 👌🏻
Tuve la suerte de adquirir el álbum en el momento en que se publicó, quedé atónito. En principio me pareció un álbum muy obscuro y confuso, pero luego me di cuenta que es un álbum bellamente paranoico y depresivo, un álbum orquestal sublime con arreglos orquestales increíbles y estas características lo diferencia de los otros álbumes de la banda. Hoy en día me sigue fascinado y me hace recordar el primer momento que lo escuché. Amo The Final Cut.
this Album is a Masterpiece, so underrated.
I absolutely agree!
Hot Garbage
Pf is fucking dynamite most explosive rock band unbelievable how amazing they are absolutely timeless
"The Final Cut": is the best double entendre ever.
Every time I hear the sax solo in the Gunner's Dream I picture the mother bawling her lungs out. At the end of the solo, it sounds like someone blowing her nose after all the crying....
I absolutely love this video. Years since I have seen it, I have an original video version, I am going to download this to my phone. Thank you immensely for the memories it's brought back for me. Shine on
Love this Album !!! 😢
Thanks for posting.
Anos 80 uns amigos meus e eu,fomos de ônibus para praia em Santa Catarina RS,e colocamos uma fita do The Final CUT...chegamos lá bem bêbados...Foi uma doidera só....Todos do ônibus gostaram do som....Paz no Mundoooooooo
Fantastic video, which I'd never seen before. Roger is one of the few who stayed true to the dream. He saw what was happening and screamed it out. He did not "go along to get along" like so many other 60s stalwarts still around. They killed the dream all right, but Roger didn't take it lying down. Roger was the soul and engine of the Floyd. A great survivor. Stop the killing now.
A masterpiece. That first sax solo rips my heart out and Roger Waters voice always echoes as the chorus of every man, woman and child..
Haven't listened to this album in decades. Seeing it again now, I am astounded how prescient it was back in the early 80s. Sadly, things have not improved and Waters is nothing if not consistent and you have to admire that. Also musically massively underrated.
WOW... This is as deep as Pink Floyd gets, 50 years in. Invincible
41 years
Criminally under rated album.
The Gunners Dream is a masterpiece.
Очень, что мы теперь не можем посмотреть полностью это гениальное произведение.... 😢
Bloody great music. Thank you so much god. Got me Dr dre headphones on full blast.. 2020 second lockdown uk. Worlds in a state. But music is great.
My father and brother love this record so much.
what a talented person has shifted mentally. Either he’s talking to himself, or he belongs in a psychiatric clinic. Does he know better from London what is happening in Palestine? What is this rampant support for cockroaches? it's not clear
Thank you!
Почему раньше не слушал?не пойму.значит меня ждёт что то потрясающее.привет всем из белоруссии
Аналогично, ...это микро версия , " Стены " ....хоть и признано худшим концертом....а я так не считаю....и фильмец хороший.
I love Pink Floyd. For me this isn't only rock music they have made, but definatelly a fantastic mix of symphony, philosophy, perfect literacy and rock. For me, if there is such thing as "Music from God" - this is it. I've memorised most of the PF songs, but TFC ones are absolutely my favourites. Incredible in every way. The separation of the two geniuses Roger and David has been proved to be a bit damaging for PF as we know it. Yes, "The Division bell" was really beautiful album, but we can only imagine the tons of incredible music, the World have lost, as a result of the separation of those two Giants. I might be wrong, but sometimes it seems that Nick Mason is the only person, who enjoys Roger's absence. Pity.
We can only hope they will continue producing their Godly music.
May God bless you all.
I love you. I had the VHS but I lost it. there were snippets on TH-cam but never the full video
Gracias por subir esta película. Un placer escuchar a Waters, siempre comprometido con las injusticias de nuestro mundo. Saludos de Argentina
When The Final Cut was released I was at the record store and got the very first copy when it arrived. I have to admit that it didn't immediately hit me. After The Wall this was something very different. Being the days before the internet I knew nothing of the drama going on within the band and it was coming to an end. I still cannot regard this as an official Pink Floyd album. It's a Roger Waters solo album with Dave Gilmour and Nick Mason making only cameo appearances and replaced by the soundscape and 3D effects. It doesn't feel like a collaborative effort and is another example of Roger airing out his own obsessions and hang ups. It took me several listens to appreciate the album, but it's one I very seldom listen to. As far as the videos go, good luck trying to catch them on MTV. If they were ever played it was usually shown very late in the evening after they've given the latest Michael Jackson video a much needed rest. When Dave was permitted to play, his solos are truly haunting. It's sad they came to such a bitter end. When you objectively look at their solo careers neither have ever topped what came before, both relying heavily on those glory years, especially Roger who seems to be constantly touring a version of Dark Side or The Wall because his solo work is unlikely to fill stadiums and fill his ego. I saw him about twenty-five years ago and ended up walking out well before the end. He must have played at least three quarters of The Wall. It was boring. Plus it was a very stripped down production that had no props or even the circular screen if my memory serves me correctly.
Simply Unforgettable! ❤️😭✌️🤘
Th Final Cut. Wow!
this is perfection... this IS THEIR BEST ALBUM...
i liked syd, but the best think for PF was him loosing his shit..
Just really amazing!!
This has always been my favourite album, and as said before, very unappreciated
I had no idea this existed! I think I'll show it in Folkestone soon
I do not know why this album is not most known, it's in par with the Wall to me.
I'm in my 50s and Pink Floyd is still the most amazing band i ever heard, it give me chills, smiles, sadness, excitment... nothing else that can come in my ears do me so many sensations.
For me, this is their best album.So what if the whole by Waters. It is a beautiful touching album. You can feel all the regrets about losing your father on this album.
Great piece of art
I'll add another vote: Best, Most Intense and Moving Pink Floyd Album...
I recommend watching the 2014 concert video of The Wall, for further exploration of makes Roger Waters tick. His grandfather was killed in WWI when his father Eric was 2 yrs old. Mixed with concert video of The Wall in it's entirety Roger makes a pilgrimage to Anzio beach head. Incredible performance. The Final Cut is the continuation & Requiem & soft touchdown landing after the wall is torn down. Incredible lyrics especially on The Gunners Dream!
What a such deep reflections
I spent almost 40 years listening to these songs without knowing this film existed. Maybe thats partly why, to me, these images don't align with the music at all.
IMO the best PF album.
Did they expect us to treat them with any respect.
Yes, definitely my favorite Floyd album 👍🖤
@@rileyhhj9297love this album when listened as a Roger Waters solo work it was in all but name. Sits very nicely with Amused To Death which feels very much its sequel.
In my opinion The Final Cut doesn’t sit well with the rest released with the Pink Floyd Brand apart from The Wall. Nowhere near enough input from the rest of the band, creatively or musically.
My favorite pink floyd album, without a doubt
Wow. Not many people say that. I think it's a great album as well. Not my favourite (that has to be DSOTM) but I'm a huge fan of it. Roger is a musical genius.
Your taste is in your ass
I love this album
Nice ! Ive loved the album.. second and third to the 'The Wall', and 'Amused to Death' ~
I have only jus now watched this 27mins of video.. Nice ~
Favorite album
Excellent
I had no idea they even made this movie. IMPO this and The Wall to a lesser extent are more Roger Waters solo albums with Pink Floyd providing backing then actual PF albums. Still fantastic. :)
This isn't Roger Waters solo album the wall on the other hand was written by Rodger Waters at the same time he wrote the pros and cons of hitchhiking he took both of the wall and pros and cons of hitchhiking and presented them to the band and said pick one for Pink Floyd to do and I will do the other one solo they pick the wall he did pros and cons of hitchhiking solo and that's the story Final Cut may sound or feel to you like a solo album but these other two actually were...
This isn’t a movie it’s a bunch of final cut music videos put together
Outtakes from the wall movie. Some songs are in the movie
The record sleeve said “The Final Cut by Roger Waters. Performed by Pink Floyd.” That says it all. Then he tried to kill Pink Floyd and failed. Losers weepers. 🤷🏻♂️
L'album più profondo e poetico in assoluto
Sure, it's more of a Roger solo album, but still a very good album with some outstanding guitar work from David. I admit at first I didn't like the album as much as the previous 3 albums, but it certainly grew on me. Unless you have the right speakers and room to listen to it, I've always thought it best to listen to it with a good set of headphones.
Masterpiece ❤🔥
my favourite album
Maior de todos os tempos, tive o privilégio de ver Roger ao vivo
many deep reflections
In 2024, you could remake this with modern images of the current global political and social media situations and it would still 100% hold up. The brilliance of great songwriting
The original VHS video never had the live bits as far as I remember. The Fletcher Memorial Home was another video.
Для меня это третий диск Стены. Все, что Роджер недовысказал, а Гилмор и Райт с Мейсоном недоиграли - здесь.
Pink floyds best album
Raczej Rogera .
No
😂😅😂😅😂😅😂😅😂
The best Pink Floyd album to me. It's got a timeless quality to it.
Honestly fair, while it’s not my favorite, I do love it
I love this album pink foyed im mently ill i dont know y i love it soo much thanks rogger
That guy played the schoolmaster in The Wall, yes?
Roger jesteś wielki❤
Um álbum profundo, extremamente bom mas extremamente depressivo, pessoas sensíveis não devem ouvi-lo, ouvi centenas e centenas de vezes, dá pra dizer que mudou o rumo da minha vida, acho que me arrependo de tê-lo conhecido.
A very, very, very, English album. Can't listen to it without envisioning the English countryside. It's there in every word. The magnificent and the tragic. Roger did it here with this undeniable collection of songs and moods and feelings.
Only US BRITISH, UNDERSTAND THIS ALBUM, IT IS VERY ENGLISH, REMINDS ME WHEN OF WHEN I WAS A KID, NO WORRIES, ALL YOUR FAMILY WAS AROUND, THEN YOU GET OLDE AND ALL THE FAMILAR FACES THAT YOU KNEW AND LOVED, ONE BY ONE LEAVE YOU, I REALLY DO WISH I COULD HAVE THOSE TIMES AGAIN.
The lyrics are about the England scene at that time, but the message Worth to whole world now a days drowning With wars.
Masterpiece

I've Loved This Album since I 1st heard it in 1983. I was in 6th grade when my friend said, You Gotta Hear This; then dropped the needle on Not Now John. A couple of these songs would become an anthem of sorts, as I entered into my HS Years. The Remastered CD has When the Tigers Broke Free; loved it in The Wall and sets perfectly on this album
✨️ 🎶
Snowy White is so freaking great and cool
сильнейший альбом, один из лучших
This should be called Roger Waters Final Cut. As credits on cover "music performed" by Pink Floyd
Obra prima....

This dream is driving me insàaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaane oh Maggie
Snowy White - amazing
Waters best solo album!
