Rick Wright was an absolute legend. RIP Rick.
She never talks about Richard Wright. There is so much contribution from Rick on this album.
Rick was their George Harrison. He was the mortar that held the (pun intended) bricks together. I miss him always.
Richard was so underated. Animals and wish you were here was his best work in my opinion. He really gave pink floyd the emotions and little eerie sounds. True genius
So the "long note" you're hearing is actually Roger's vocals fading out and being blended with Rick on the synthesizer. It's perfectly mixed so you can't tell where his voice ends and the synth begins.
Oh you mean I was trying and failing to hold that note all of these years while singing along with it. I feel a bit better now. Thank you.
This blew me away the first time I heard that song. So well done.
So well executed.
The song speaks about this:
A Máfia Médica - Dra. Ghislaine Lanctot

@@2727rogers thats a total mood 🤣
Roger Waters was inspired by George Orwell's book "Animal Farm", while recording the "Animals" album.
At the end of this song Roger Waters is basically saying all human beings are essentially the same. Power corrupts.
Notice how the sheep had an uprising and killed the dogs. They thought themselves became the new dogs and began to abuse the weaker.
That is true today as it was back then.
Such a great book
Frank Herbert said it better: "Power does not corrupt. Power attracts the corruptible."
The part that sounds like "church prayer" is a prayer from the sheeps point of view.
"The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not want
He makes me down to lie
Through pastures green he leadeth me the silent waters by
With bright knives he releaseth my soul
He maketh me to hang on hooks in high places
He converteth me to lamb cutlets
For lo, he hath great power and great hunger
When cometh the day we lowly ones
Through quiet reflection and great dedication
Master the art of karate
Lo, we shall rise up
And then we'll make the bugger's eyes water."
Pink Floyd is amazing!
Sheep. What a life.
Its great to see a youngster discovering what us oldies already knew, Pink Floyd is one of the greatest bands/songwriters to ever be!
Every single Pink Floyd song is art..
...Well, music IS an art form!

Unfortunately not
Another generation of Pink Floyd fans, so cool.
I know, it does my heart good to see this.
Nice! Yes, those were keyboards. Richard shines on keyboards. He's a keyboard master. In Welcome to the machine, his keyboards cut through the heart with such pain that you cannot forget it. Of course with all the other Pink Floyd candies. This is definitely a song you should be reacting to next.
My favorite PF album !
I've seen Pink Floyd four times in three different decades and the most mind-blowing concert was the one in 1977 called the In the flesh tour!! They played all of Animals took a short break and then played all of Wish You Were Here and then came out and played half of Dark Side of The Moon for their encore with the original four members!!! I saw at least two dozen people having to be hauled out from passing out or freaking out because of the intensity of the visuals the lights and the music!! That concert is one of about 100 I've seen in my life and the most amazing one I've seen and the only one where my wife and I drove all the way home and didn't say a word!!!
Some of the people that were hauled out were freaking out because they had taken acid and we're not ready for what was about to happen!!
Me too! Saw them 4 times, 75, 77, 87 & 94. First time Dark Side & Echoes for the Encore! 2nd Time all of Animals and Wish You Were Here. Gilmour on 🔥 on a Fender Telecaster for Animals. 3rd Time with Gilmour led Floyd doing greatest hits after Momentary Lapse of Reason, 4th Time, Pulse tour. Gilmour twice solo in the 80s and Roger 4 times solo including The Wall. My Pink Floyd experience never stops, those memories will last forever.
@jonhenke... Me too where did you see them? I saw them in Cleveland . June 25th '77. The giant pig; the flock of sheep floating down over the crowd; opening the show with their private jet flying sooooo low over the stadium that the fined-big time for that. I heard they were banned from playing in Cleveland for a few years for that one. It was reported that there was 97000 tickets sold for the concert...the old Cleveland Municipal stadium seated 83000 ( 88000 with standing room ) but the whole field was filled with fans. Saw people falling down when used the surround sound around the top of the stadium ( I'm pretty sure they chemically enhanced... we were!
@@gregorysimmers I was really lucky!! Saw them at the madhouse on McDowell where the Phoenix Suns used to play in February of 1977. It was a sold-out crowd of 12,000 and was indoors in a smaller place so it was really up close and the whole crowd was absolutely silent and mesmerized!! Saw them in 74 for the Dark Side of the Moon tour, in 87 for the momentary lapse of reason tour and of course the 94 Pulse concert at ASU's Sun devil stadium! But that 77 show being indoors there was so much pot being smoked that it was almost like another effect with the haze in the air!! The sound was like we were inside a giant set of headphones it was so perfect!! Anyway I went in sober and I came out wanting to go through a drive-thru and getting a bucket full of hamburgers and tacos!! Still the best concert of all the concerts I've been to!!!!
@@gregorysimmersDude, l was at the same show. It was a show l will never forget no matter how many brain cells l destroyed.
It’s a treat so see you reacting to Pink Floyd songs, to see you recognizing their genius, to see their music will never get old or old-fashioned ❤️
The original working title of this song was Raving and Drooling. They were playing this live as early as 1974, almost 3 years before Animals was released.
Yep!!
It's a cloudy start this morning until I started watching your reaction, and at that precise moment the SUN came out! Thank you for bringing the joy of your Pink Floyd reactions, they're so so good!

The reason you like the Bass is called David Gilmour. The lyrics would explain, or give you a much better understanding of the album
You’re just so incredible.
David Gilmour is beyond belief no matter what instrument he plays, a human, musical note!
This song contains one of my favourite Pink Floyd lines - 'Wave upon wave of demented avengers march cheerfully out of obscurity into the dream'! - Brilliant! Great reaction, Stacey!
" get out of the road if you wanna grow old..." love that line 😉
Gilmour's guitar and bass on this song are brilliant.
Sheep makes me visualize their music so perfectly... First all sheep live their peaceful life, but the bass comes up slowly, like there is something bad about to happen, but as the bass is still quiet, it doesn't bother them. Then the sound explosion is like that something bad actually happened, for many of them "suddenly", but... if they only dare to hear the warning...
Then there is a slaughterhouse part, like they failed to defend. There is a brain washing moment after which they are all threatened, aggressive music turns into this perfect guitar riffs that fades away and "the peace" comes back and it is all going back to where it all started. The sheep will be sheep forever! This song has such a great connection of the meaning, background theme, sounds, music and lyrics, like it's a real movie!
The "prayer" you hear is Roger Waters' twisted version of the Lord's Prayer. Very dark.
The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not want
He makes me down to lie
Through pastures green He leadeth me the silent waters by
With bright knives he releaseth my soul
He maketh me to hang on hooks in high places
He converteth me to lamb cutlets
For lo, He hath great power, and great hunger
When cometh the day we lowly ones
Through quiet reflection, and great dedication
Master the art of karate
Lo, we shall rise up
And then we'll make the bugger's eyes water.
Not The Lords Prayer, but Psalm 23. But you are correct with it being Rogers twisted version.
@@axispcc Thank you. I mix them up all the time.
the sheep psalm/mantra was recited by Nick Mason through a vocal distorcer
@@alessandrozibetti8919 That I did not know, learned something new after ... lets just say a long time.

Animals is a concept album based on the sociopolitical atmoshere in the mid 70s, loosley based on George Orwells animal farm novel
Indeed :)
This album should only be listened to beginning-to-end in its entirety.
When I saw Floyd during the Momentary Lapse of Reason tour at the massive (old) Wembley stadium, the sound of the animals was being played on their quadrophonic sound system, fading louder until they came on stage to perform at the start of the show. In the middle of London, hearing cows and sheep was bizarre.
In 1977, a couple of years after I graduated high school, someone, most likely a student at that school, painted the entire lyrics of "Sheep" on one of the outer walls of the school. It covered two floors, I was most impressed.
Gilmour plays the fret less bass on this. That’s David on the fret less bass on “Hey You”, also.
good to know
There's no fretless on Sheep. Dave played one of the bass lines on Pigs though.
Kraftwerk, Beatles and Pink Floyd the three most influential bands in rock and pop history
Err...Queen buddy, now that's influential...
@@Summon256 Queen is unique and famous but not influential like the above mentioned groups.
@@jurgenmuller143 What in the actual heck man...lol you are clueless as hell...the Live Aid concert alone made them all iconic, especially Freddy, talking about not knowing your shit! Lol
Led Zeppelin and Black Sabbath, too!
Riiight
There's nothing better than watching Stacey react to Pink Floyd. The fact that she's breathtakingly beautiful certainly plays some small part in that.
Is There Anybody Out There? from The Wall would undoubtedly be another incredible reaction.
Stunning song everyone should listen to. Especially in the last 4 years where the world's population were so compliant and trusting, without questioning anything. Meekly doing what they were told. Cool reaction as usual.
Loving your stuff here Stacey. I wish so bad you could see David when he tours later this year... Maybe a trip out to LA is in order 😉
and I wish I could go too!!
Hm, maybe also reactions to his new songs...
NYC too!
It's funny that dogs is the only song Rodger Waters played bass on on animals. You got Mr Gilmore playing the bass guitar on sheep. Although my favorite part of sheep is Rodger Waters voice fading seamlessly into the synth on the ends of some of the lyrics!!
this song is really a locomotive, the force with which it starts.
It's like waiting in the quiet station listening to the sheep, the bass... and the engine goes at full power. It pulls you in.
Usually you just want to lose yourself in a Pink Floyd song. For this album, pulling up the lyrics is helpful as well. Dogs is probably my favorite, but all three of the major songs on this album are great. Dogs is very Gilmour heavy as he doesn’t sing on the others, and his guitar work on Dogs is among his best. They actually were working on these songs and performing them shortly after Dark Side of the Moon but they didn’t record them for the next album (Wish You Were Here). They took the time to let the songs germinate until they got them just right. Most musicians don’t take the time to do that. Respectful to their craft was a great way to put it.
Yes, good point, you can hear early version of the songs that ended up on both Wish You Were Hear and Animals in the first set at Boston Garden 1975. That was the entire first set, the second set is all of Dark Side of the Moon, followed by an encore of Echoes. One of the best shows I ever saw, you can hear audio of it on You Tube, enjoy!
@@vicprovost2561 I've heard the audio of those shows, originally via bootlegs and then more recently on the Immersion sets. Gotta say I'm a little bit jealous you got to hear it live. In later years, you would never hear a song before it was put on record. A few minor exceptions of course, David did Smile and probably a couple of others live first, but as a band, that of like 1970-1975 they performed many tracks live before they committed it to record. Which is why when they finally cut them in the studio, they were complete perfection
@@mikewatts867 I was beyond lucky seeing those Garden shows, best concerts on my life, seen shows since 1971.
We Floydians aren't sheep! I can't see you having reacted to Radiohead yet and whilst there will be only ever be one Pink Floyd Radiohead are a band to experience and Thom Yorke's voice is one of a kind. Most people start off with "Creep" which they saw as a millstone or "Paranoid Android" which can be an assault on the senses so I would recommend "Karma Police" as an introduction to their early sound or the atmospheric "Street Spirit (Fade out) " for Thom at his very best
Floydians? What a tool.
I can remember being disappointed with Animals at the time because it wasn't Wish You Were Here or DSOTM. However, at this great distance it stands up rather well :-)
That's David Gilmour on Bass as well Stacey.
I did know that, but why did he🤔
@@hognaut Because Roger was a shit musician but a brilliant lyricist.
@@foxtrot789 wooo, that's not true. Not only a bassist and vocalist, Waters has experimented with the EMS Synthi A and VCS 3 synthesisers electric rhythm and acoustic guitars clarinet trombone and piano, that's pretty impressive! Not to mention he wrote most of the music on The Wall!
I believe Roger on played bass on dogs didn't he
It's Gilmour who plays bass on Pigs (Three Different Ones) too.
The three songs together - Dogs, Sheep, Pigs - form a composition of their own, because they all are different, but complement each other so well.
The metallic voice near the end is a prayer, as if being broadcasted by old loudspeakers, to keep the sheep down.
Roger’s “long note” is actually Rick’s keyboard synth replacing his vocal to extend that note. SO COOL!
The electric piano introduced is sublime.
Rick was a genius
Stacey so good to see you on the Animals album again. Wonderful concert in 1977 at Tampa Stadium.
I was fortunate enough to see Pink Floyd, the Division Bell tour in Washington DC in 1994. One of the best shows I’ve ever been to!
I worked across road from battersea power station in stewart rd and waiting for bus to go home i saw helicopters chasing a 40 ft pig that got loose i didnt know it was my favorite group until purchased album a year later.
Out of the 500 highlights in this song, one of my absolute favorite moments is when the distorting repeating echo of the word "stone... stone... stone..." from "Dogs" comes in during the middle section.
Great to hear you giving praise to Rogers vocals and bass. His writing is truly amazing. Look forward to your next Pink Floyd reaction!!! 😊
Pretty please react to Keep Talking at the Pulse Concert... I'll keep asking until you do 🤪
One of my favourite tracks. I saw them play this live in 1977. Is was amazing.
Me too, in the old Boston Garden, with David Gilmour on 🔥 on a Telecaster, amazing!
In the middle of the song is an altered version of the Psalm of David.
I never thought I would get to see any of the Animals songs live but Roger played Dogs and Pigs (3 different kinds) during his “Us + Them” tour and Sheep during the most recent “This is Not A Drill” tour.
I’ve seen Floyd live twice, Gilmour once (and have tickets to his upcoming show at MSG) and Roger 8 times.
David’s guitar is both menacing and frantic at the same time, BRAVO DAVE!!!
You know as a 15 year old in 75 my ist floyd album was wish you were here and i loved this album, in 77 when animals came out i was so excited to get the album but couldn’t get into it that much but now as a 64 year old i listen to animals most nights and i just like the sheer rawness of it!! Its truly an underestimated album for sure i really love it now
I was 16 in 75... I had already bought DSoTM and loved it.. somehow missed WYWH, then got Animals and it became my favorite album for like 10 years - still top 5 I think... I used to come home from school and listen to it like three times in a row in the dark with headphones
Yes, more Animals is always a welcome sight. This was insane live in the Boston Garden 1977, you can hear audio of that show on you tube, Gilmour was on freaking fire that night, I will never forget their as always, awesome performance. Check out the live, you will not regret it. Enjoy! 🔥🎵🎸🎤🎹🎶🔥
They are also setting up their notorious soundscapes at the beginning of so many songs. Very immersive.
I never saw you so animated to a song before! Great reaction to a great band!!!!
This was my first Pink Floyd album, over 40 years ago.. still love it
Hey miss 😊!!! Thanks for the PinkFloyd réaction !!! Animals An album so far ahead of its time! Magnificent as Always ! Good travel with PinkFloyd ❤
I'm just now able to watch this - its almost 11pm here in Western Pa - can't think of a better way to end my day , with a little Floyd and you ! thank you
Saw Pink Floyd on the 'animals' tour in Stafford in March 1977 complete with inflatable animals a brilliant experience. the world's greatest band
Hi Stacey, Good interpretation for a first time listen to a very complex piece of music. While listening to the album Animals, you should keep in mind a quote from Animal Farm: 'All animals are equal, it's just that some are more equal than others.' And remember that we, humans, are just animals of one sort.
And yes, this is another album that should be digested as a whole. ♥♥♥♥
My favorite PF album. I was a high school senior when it was released. Can't count how many times I laid on my bed and listened to the entire thing through my earphones.
Another great song by Pink Floyd. I enjoy your reactions to their music. The ability to feel music rather than just listen to it is a gift not everyone shares.
I have listened to this album thousands of times over the decades !!! One of my favorites !!!
2:55 I love the way you start grooving along with the music when the vocals start
Thx Stacey! I go between Animals and Wish You Were Here as My favorite. I think I lean toward Animals. Just stunning pieces of music. Anger, fear, slashing guitar. I think some of Rick's best keyboard work. Rock on Stacey!
I have been listening to PF for over 50 years. Never get tire of them.
Another great Pink Floyd reaction Stacey. Thanks ❤️🏴🇬🇧
10:22 Stacey the part you thought was a church prayer is…
The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not want
He makes me down to lie
Through pastures green He leadeth me the silent waters by
With bright knives he releaseth my soul
He maketh me to hang on hooks in high places
He converteth me to lamb cutlets
For lo, He hath great power, and great hunger
When cometh the day we lowly ones
Through quiet reflection, and great dedication
Master the art of karate
Lo, we shall rise up
And then we'll make the bugger's eyes water
This has become my favorite CZcams series..I look forward to this every week..👍
By far my favorite song off the Animals album. IMHO this song is when Pink Floyd really started coming into their own,
I love this song and the whole album, but saying they started coming into their own, after they already had released Wish you were here and Dark Side of the moon, is kind of a stretch.
I bought this album when it first came out, still have it... yeah I'm that old..
You're not old, THAT music keeps you young!"
Me also and it's in mint condition I'm old aswell 67yrs 😂but happy to have lived and seen Floyd live six time's from 1975 to 1994
When you put a Flea in a glass jar, it tries to jump out, doesn't want to be there. You, then, place a lid on the jar and the Flea still tries to jump out (they're not that smart) but each time it hits and hurts its head as it crashes into the lid as it tries to jump out. After many tries, the Flea, still wanting to jump out but not wanting to hurt its head will stump just hard enough to reach the top of the jar but not too hard to hurt its head. You can now remove the lid, the Flea will not escape, you have trained, brain washed the Flea to not jump high enough to get out of the jar.
Pink Floyd's lyrics; have you heard the news, the dogs are gone, better do what you're told means that, a political leadership (I'm sure Roger Waters is thinking in social/political terms) that beats citizens into submission with violent cohesion can brain beat a peoples into submission to a point where they don't have to be violent to obtain submission. People get used to a status quo and/or the mere threat of violence is enough because of fear.
Back in the day in my market (The Netherlands at the time) this song was issues as a single when the album came out (there's a 4 minute version somewhere) it is rhythmic and energetic enough to make for good radio play. I love this song, for that reason and for the grey industrial machines sound it creates with instrumentation and technology of the time, the way it expresses an age old familiar social/political contra regime message, I love Gilmour's guitar outro vignette, easy to play, so effective.
The Animals album has aged extremely well, both among real Pink Floyd fan as well as among more casual listeners.
And it's lovely to experience the reaction of a young person.
Thanks.
Gilmour’s guitars on this entire record are some of the best I’ve ever heard. Also shoutout for Roger’s vocals and unbelievably good lyrics inspired by George Orwell’s Animal Farm
If you listen closely during the fade at the end after the dogs are dead, there is one solitary pig snort amongst the sheep. They will always come back.
I had this on 8-track tape when it came out. Fantastic album, I love "pigs on the wing" (parts 1 & 2). They launched the giant pig balloon over that factory as a promo for the record.
A mention has to be made of Nick Mason on the drums. Often overshadowed by David and Roger you actually find yourself rocking along to the sublime timing of Nick’s drums without realising it. Richard of course is a genius too. Great to see a young person discovering PF. Keep it coming! 👏
At 12:25 your cat was like hey, I just noticed my kind aren't represented in this song.... only dimly aware of a certain unease in the air, love you Stacey for covering my fave PF album.
My favorite Pink Floyd album and one of my top 5 favorite albums overall.
Watching you react to these songs makes me feel like I’m hearing them for the first time again. I’m living vicariously and it’s great. It’s so cool to see a new listener who really gets it and is experiencing the pure joy that is their music. Welcome to the family.
Funny. Back to the little sheep. Sheep in the field. And some tweety birds. Yay. Yes- it's art of the highest quality.
thank you for this reaction; I forgot how much I loved this song and album!
This album came out when I was in high school! This album was the only album we listened to that year! One of their beat!
Seeing Pink Floyd perform this album live at Cleveland Stadium on the Animals tour was the greatest show I ever saw…just spellbindingly magnificent.
Ah, Pink Floyd's Animals album, always takes me back to a certain time and place in my life so many many years ago. One of my favorite albums.
In my little corner of the world, this is, hands down their best album.
Lyrics, lyrics, lyrics a must.
Quote;
"Loosely based on George Orwell's political fable Animal Farm, the album's lyrics describe various classes in society as different kinds of animals: the predatory dogs, the despotic ruthless pigs, and the "mindless and unquestioning” herd of sheep. Whereas the novella focuses on Stalinism, the album is a critique of capitalism and differs again in that the sheep eventually rise up to overpower the dogs. The album was developed from a collection of unrelated songs into a concept which, in the words of author Glenn Povey, "described the apparent social and moral decay of society, likening the human condition to that of mere animals".
Anyhow... A brilliant concept album by Pink Floyd, one of the best in my humble opinion!
The one reaction I’ve been wanting to see the most.
My favorite song from the Animals album, the beginning and ending are awesome!!! Those keys and guitar in the end, never gets old.
Cool! I got to see Roger do this live a couple of times. Had the 8 track back in 78. I have tried to live my life by not being a sheep thanks to this song.
David plays the bass on this track,literally amazing
Not Roger? DG goes up another notch on my all time greatest list.
@@shegocrazy While an amazing lyricist, Roger was definitely the weakest musician in the group, without a doubt.
@KiltedHammer true. He was more than just a lyricist though.
Cool! I didn't know that 👍
@@shegocrazy of course. He played bass and acoustic guitar (that I know of), but not to the level of any of the rest of the band's members.
Hi Stacey, Sheep is one of my fav PF song and Animal is my fav PF album. I aleays felt this song brings you to a time travel journey, first part is the past, middle part present and then straight to the future into space travelling. Amazing actual almost 50 years after it has been composed. I love your PF reactions.
Excellent reaction. This album is phenomenal. It's so experimental. I get hints of Blue Oyster Cult and The Residents in this. Thank you so much for sharing it.
She would Love BOC!
BOC would be a great reaction!
my most favorite album been listening to this for over 30 years and never get tired of hearing it 👍
The stone part was also in Dogs. You will hear the ending again in later albums.😊❤
This song reminds me of 2020. 8 billion sheep being misled and some being led to the slaughter.
One of my favourite PF albums, still, after almost 50 years.
Wow, I remember when this first came out, and it was amazing. I was 13 and i had just started my musical journey. This, Black Sabbath - Sabbath bloody sabbath and led Zeppelin vol 4 were my favourites at the time....
This is one of my favorites songs ever. Thank you
I think that many people are feeling a certain unease in the air at the moment. Life has a weird atmosphere lately
YOU might find this fun fact interesting Stacey, Pink Floyd has actually released an album of "Great Dance songs" !! When you end up doing your album listens, you might include that on your list. They also played a couple of their songs in a 800 year old church: Cymbaline. you should check that out too.
Cymbaline is awesome!
Pink Floyd never rushes anything. It's like being on a plane that slowly reaches flight speed, rather than being instantly launched into Mach 1.
I also recommend trying to find an early version if this song before it was recorded. It had essentially the same music, but different lyrics. At that time, the tune went by the name "Raving and Drooling"
I will put growing up in the 70’s and 80’s against any other when it comes to music and freedom 🙏 I know fellow Gen Xers will agree 👊🏽 I grew up in NYC and not only was it awesome because EVERY band would play NYC and I was fortunate enough to have family that worked at MSG and on Broadway so I basically got to see everyone I wanted to see perform! Another awesome experience we had was to head to Central Park and the Hayden Planetarium for shows like Floyd, Zeppelin amongst others but especially for these shows we would drop some mesc/lsd and travel the astral plane having the time of our lives 🤙🏽 thanks for drumming up some memories that deft time and space ❤️
