When you ain't seen nothing yet brother:)..
@methehappyone I wonder how many people noticed that, I never see anyone mention it. This guy needs to watch the whole movie if he thought that clip was good.
Beats rap music. Don’t it.
This comment would have made the song you reacted to from Aug 4, 2018 czcams.com/video/gL7xlicA73c/video.html make so much more sense to you. So After Reading below why you must watch the songs in the musical album video film aka "Rock Opera" "The Wall", I hope you post a "Joey Reacts...." to the song from the film in context with meant visuals. Better if you watch up to that point, so you feeling the emotions of the character "Pink" the musician who you are experiencing his mind/life.... A split screen comparison of both the old and new would be also interesting.
I know below is long but please read it Joey, I'm trying to explain why you should check out the source of "The Wall" by Pink Floyd and why it is such heritage musical legacy. You liked a sampling of the experience, let the experience take you where it was meant to go.
The video would have made more sense had you watched in the context of The Album's Music video of Pink Floyd's - "The Wall" In the original order, although it will puzzle some as you figure out where you are in the rock star Pink's world and what is happening, at first. You'll come to understand why he was locked in his hotel room.
Which the entire Album/CD VHS(or Betamax be glad you avoid that media choice war)/DVD or Blu-Ray is one interwoven story for the entire Album's music. The songs stand alone but the context is so much of an experience. You'll want to record your action to the movie and the visuals in it, trust me on this please.
If thought Pink Floyd's "Wish You Were Here" Light show was amazing, the film was an earlier before there was music videos "Video Album Rock Opera". Came out in 1982 MTV start in 1981 but wasn't even available outside major cities on this new thing called cable, it was 7 years before MTV Raps aired. So When you watch this , realize it was ahead of its time, even with "Concept Albums" of a continuous theme and story being made occasionally.
The film is highly metaphorical, full symbolic imagery and the animations.... just be prepared to be blown away and remember this was before CGI & released in 1982. Which helps explain some of how life as traveling musician and the drugs can consume you through the film's imagery of mental isolation, drug use(recreational and given so he could/would perform), with damage psyche a generation after the WW2 war, fascism, which has dark or disturbing(the change of the flowers, god I can't spoil it for you dammit) sexual animated sequences, violence and gore. Which you will find the same fascism theme Roger Waters wrote about in the very early 1982 very relevant as today. The "marching hammers" will remind you of the problems in the USA as much as they stand for main character musician Pink ( the film's star/subject/protagonist) modern take of Nazi's. He was a kid born in and growing up in the aftermath of WW2 and what his psyche is going through along with relationships and all that love can do both good and bad as relations evolve and deteriorate from outside stresser as much as our baggage.
Take the school scene in your above reaction, you didn't notice the kids' masks as for how the educational system was destroying them and that it was about hormagitizing them with indoctrination to be good little bricks in the wall. No originality or individualization allowed. The cycle of abuse of teacher at home being bullied and inflicting it on the kids as whipping them with leather straps and , canes and shoes(not your soft tennis shoes). Plus the Hammers on the Cogs which relates to another song section.
Also it common for someone to never have seen this classic cult film from Pink Floyd to be shown it by friends after they have partaken of drink, the devil's lettuce and/or LSD. Because the full album music video film "The Wall" in order is amazing and while sober can make you feel like you're on a hallucinogenic...... On something expect your mind to melt some, maybe have chaperon in case your trip goes bad. Just saying, love ya and wouldn't want you come hurt on the other side.
I hope you take the time to watch "The Wall" as the experience was intended. The song "Comfortably Numb" will have new and refound meaning in its context. The simple scene(and song) where the fictional musician star "Pink" is sitting in restroom backstage wanting to go home, to take off this uniform and leave the show.... Sorry I'll stop for spoilers... But the context of everything in the film and the weird interlaced shots you saw in the video are parts of the story album Rock Opera's music video film style.
@Takahiro Karasawa oh shut up.
You have to remember this video is 40 years old, the whole movie was ground breaking when it came out. The message still applies, we don't educate, we indoctrinate!
Absolutely. We had a walkout at our school...we knew back then...now we know how true ALL of this is 😨
It's more relevant now than ever.
Paul Marshall thanks for that dam were did 40 years go
Today it is democrats running the NEA and Colleges and teaching kids that America is evil . When they finally do destroy America and Liberty ......where will you run to ? what nations will welcome you ? feed you ? House you and Protect you ? NONE ! America is your last stand .....or you can burn it down like a good little Democrat Commie ......you get what you deserve .
@@harrytuttle8161 Wow! America is the last stand? What a load of nonsense. America has proven it's full of scared and neurotic sycophants who will elect a narcissistic liar to steady their nerves. America is the last stand for Guns God and Bullshit.
That poem the teacher read was the lyrics to their song Money
Lol
I was just about to say that :P
Saw an interview of Roger Waters years ago he said he penned most of Dark Side Of The Moon before he finished the eighth grade.
@@slinkie59 So why didn't they release any of the songs five years earlier?
@@mimikurtz4061 he didn't address that, my guess is Syd Barrett was doing the song writing until he got spun, Waters just didn't have confidence in his song writing ability, DSOTM was the first LP they released without Syd and after it did what it did Waters gained confidence.
THE MEAT GRINDER IS A METAPHOR FOR SCHOOL TURNING OUT A PRODUCT
Thanks for explaining that to us. You're so intelligent
I thought it was a metaphor for school turning all our brains into hamburger
@@g13n79 Not as smart as your ass.
Now days the school's are turning out trans kids and leftis socialists .
The first time I saw that scene it made feel sick & creeped out it's also given me a dislike of Meat Grinders in general so now whenever I see one I can't help but feel nauseous...
The whole story is fascinating - children coming up after the trauma of WW2 - too many without fathers. You need to watch the whole thing.
Took me a while to "get it" as a musical. Overall, it's less a linear story than variations on a theme. Each song until The Trial is either about what caused the main character's isolation and alienation from society or how he (failed to) deal with it. The Trial concludes that the only true way to handle it is to be willing to open up and expose those vulnerabilities to other people.
YES that was me born 1940......
Very applicable today too!
Unfortunately no one learns about history anymore.
@@donnamixon1195 very true and unfortunately, we never seem to learn from past mistakes the world over..stay safe during this VIRUS CRISIS bye for now from Australia....
You need to react to the whole movie. “The Wall”
some of the videos from the movie are being blocked from CZcams. That’s why I only did this one.
@@CrownFamilyHQDo it live like when you did the album!
Word
@@CrownFamilyHQ Well, if you can find the film, it's worth watching, even if you can't react to it for us. It completes the Wall album, they go together. This video is from the movie, hence all the acting parts and the music stopping (and the start is the previous track, and the end is the start of the next track).
If you have to do an audio only version for us. Your reactions remind me of when I 1st heard the album.
The Briitish school system was known as the meat grinder. They produced workers for the industrial age and that was basically it.
yeah my parents were in school around that time they said school just wanted them to be the best but it was forced if you did one thing wrong you would get whipped with a fucking wooden stick bro
Same with american school
@@Qausuality same and my mom said that they would also pull your ears and your hair, she hated it and I bet I would've too! I feel so bad that kids really got hurt and nowadays kids take advantage of their education but they don't even know because they don't do that anymore
Nothing to do with the "British" education system you muppet, its all educational systems, they teach for the needs of the nations economy.
@@Qausuality I got the cane at school once, showed the bruising to my brother he went to my school and put the teacher in a coma. When the police came I said the teacher touched my balls and nothing ever happened to my brother lol.
It’s a lesson in non-conformity and avoiding being ground up and ground down by “the system”. Remain an individual, don’t be just another brick in the wall.
The "another brick in the wall" does not refer to people becoming bricks. It refers to the traumatic events that caused _Pink_ to build the emotional and mental wall that shut out the world and everyone who loved him. That's the whole point of the film - that the "wall" was something Pink built for himself, and only he had the power to bring it down.
beautiful and straight forward summarization! Cheers!
I had friends in England and they told me some horror stories about the british educational system, overly strict, physical punishment, student humiliation, that was all very real, love the song.
That's exactly how it was for my agegroup Delilah.I went to a Secondary Modern Boys School and a caning across the hands was commonplace if you stepped out of line.
Yeah my uncle used to get beat with a stick in school
So did my aunt x
I take it your school didn't teach you about metaphors then
i mean, norway wasn't that good either, if i remember correctly during my dad's school years they hit a measure stick over their fingers and other cruel things, nearly ripping the ears off and humiliating them. it was a different time.
@@robinchwan Yes discipline was severe back then but no discipline is too far to the other extreme, we as a species need to learn balance
They're still teaching kids to grow up and be meat in the system. And, yes I was spanked in school. It was common in my time.
Worse now then ever ...I at least had a few leftover hippy type teachers who understood we are not all the same
@@gilwood7530 Laughs, I AM the Hippie Generation. Thank you - Peace
@Tripper Harrison Even more so in the 50's and 60's. Sometimes just speaking was crossing the line. Children should be seen and not heard ideology.
@Tripper Harrison Catholic school nuns could be very rough, most were just great teachers with pleasant dispositions. But get a rough, angry one and....man you were in for a long, long school year.
Things I was hit in school by teachers.. Palms.. Fists.. Canes.. Books.. Bamboo poles.. Cricket Bats.. Baseball Bats.. Hockey Sticks.. Wooden Sword.. Wooden Paddle.. Wooden and metal rulers.. Leather and rubber belts.. whips.. and just once a motorcycle chain.. and of course parents always gave the teachers the benefit of the doubt and assumed that we deserved any punishment we received .. LOL... I guess :|
I’m from England “Great Britain” I’m 50 years of age and I remember this coming out in the charts!
I think the video was band from air play on certain shows!
Cool Britannia!🇬🇧🇬🇧
I remember being a kid when this came out and my mother was appalled at it saing it's teaching kids to rebel and have nor respect for teachers
I was in my last year at school in England when this video came out. Schools here in England back then were grim dark places The bully ruled and the cane wielded by the teachers was the control. I had the cane a few times and just accepted it was a fact of life. When the Wall came out the atmosphere in our school and any others changed, the tension could be felt. I loved learning but hated the school system, and still do. I have lived my life with a scar across the palm of my hand that was given to me by a metal work teacher and his steel rule. The memory of having a wet football kicked at me and the other kids during a PE lesson whilst standing in a line up against the school wall on a rainy cold day has never left me. The PE teacher found it funny when he hit a bare cold leg with the ball. If we flinched we spent the hour running the cross country track in the rain.
The movie as a whole explains the music and how he felt since he was a child he actually did base most of this on his own experiences. The movie is full of all kinds of symbolism that you should really watch the whole thing.
"them kids was like 'i aint turning into no ground beef'!" LMAO
all squeaker millennial react to it
But you do! It's called being a respectable adult according to societies rules!!! Free of imagination and hang ups!!
logan4231 😂😂😂😂
I never stop laughing at the fact that the lines that were mocked as ‘poems everybody’ are from Money - brilliant
Absof**kinlutely!
The teacher calls them rubbish... rubbish that stayed on the billboard album charts for almost 15 years running
@@NondescriptMammal It's probably meant to be that song writer as a child getting humiliated by the teacher.
It's pretty rad that Joey heard them as rap lyrics.
@@Serai3 Rappers ain't the first to catch flack
You mean that part of the movie; watch “The Wall” in its entirety; it’s a movie that encompasses the entire album-this is just one scene from it.
When he reacted to the meat grinder I was laughing my ass off.
OMG his face 😂
This is a scene from the movie 'The Wall'. After 'Pink' is humiliated in class, he has a daydream about how the education system is run by self-loathing adults that are warping the students until they are deformed persons and culminates in the riot. The scene ends with him returning to the classroom lesson ("The area of an acre... ").
I recommend the movie. It really illustrates the story being told in the album.
Bonus fact: The poem are lyrics from the track 'Money' on the Dark Side of the Moon album.
Keep reacting!
Thanks for breaking it down for me
This is happening in school rooms all across America...
@@dawnsterzing594 still does
This movie came out when i was 14 and it was banned in my country. Luckily there were people who managed to bring these banned movies in (Rocky Horror was another one). By the time i finished school at 18 I had seen this movie well over 15 times. I still watch it to this day - not so often and usually only certain scenes though :)
Much like how leftists are indoctrinating children and college students.
If my child was being forcefully exposed to deviant ideologies against my will by the government, I would be homeschooling them.
"If you don't eat yer meat, you can't have any pudding
How can you have any pudding if you don't eat yer meat?"
Think about it??
If you don’t research,read your past than you can’t and don’t have a right that judging your countries administration
Of course my dirty minded friend wrote that in my 1985 senior yearbook & my nasty minded mom was on the same page & I got a shit ton of side eye from my mom😄
If you don't beat yer meat, you can't have any pudding
How can you have any pudding if you don't beat yer meat?"
Think about that one
With Love,

Well, this explains why my pudding concept restaurant failed in the vegan community.
@@dougdelaney3514 with all of these new vegan fake meat options around now a days a little fake pudding should go over well.
The choir that performed in the song was from a school (in Crouch End) near where I lived in London (Muswell Hill)
“We don’t need no education is a double negative” they do need education but London was about schooling not learning.
It sounds better as a double negative
Did you bother to consider that the use of the double negative is common amongst the London working class? Also, I'm with Tennnis IQ, it sounds better this way.
Alright, on your bike. Piss off.
"I ain't turnin' into no groundbeef!" HAHAHA
this album was banned in South Africa when it was first released, for being 'subversive' easy to see why. they wanted conformity and for no one to think for themselves.
The 1976 riots triggered by the students rejecting the state provided education (taught in Afrikaans) was the reason this was banned in 1979 they were scared of another outbreak of rioting. The portrail and collapse of the Neo-Nazi racial beliefs of Pink's alter ego would have also upset the South African Nationalist Govt of the day.
When this song came out, teachers knew it was going to be a tough year.
I went to school in England. I'm 58, so I remember "caning" quite well. British schools back in the were brutal
"F that! I ain't turning into no ground beef!" Probably my favorite line of yours
You remember that whooping because violence is unforgettable! Peace!
Thank you.It really is. Mandatory education should be illegal. It's used to turn pure innonence into a perfect brick in the proverbial wall in which we are all imprisoned.Were brainwashed to extinguish our divinity and to permantently imprison ourselves.Cement ourselves as bricks in the wall.Its pure evil.
What you mean the fear of someone 2-3 feet (1 meter ) taller than you with 100+ pounds using a weapon to beat you until you scream and cry, what not to remember with traumatize abuse and constant threats of it from every adult. I watch the darker skin kids get way worse even from the African American Teachers. I remember feeling powerless and wanting stronger weapon to stop that teacher. USA law it's Aggravated Assault & Battery with a dangerous Weapon and mandatory arrest and Jail if you do to anyone in the same living dwelling.... Unless they are child then they have no rights to not be beaten like punching bag......
He had a trauma at that age. The fact he remembers it, mean he hasn't dealt with it during that time.. Otherwise he would have forgotten that.
I remember when I was 17 listening to this and thinking WOW! I'm a lot older now and still love this great song. Love your views on it. Love from UK.
Imagine watching this at 5 years old before you started school. This clip set up my life it made me see what everyone else failed to see . It really affected my life forever In good ways and bad ways . I still dont know how i feel about it but glad i watched it.
5:15 What is that?
It's the first ingredient in Soylent Green! HAHA
Yup! Not a book or movie most people under 40 are familiar with.
Yep i was CANED for rocking on my chair I had 5 strikes on the backs of my legs i was 9 at the time, thats the one i really remember but i also had the ruler across my palms on a few occasions . I am 45 now also spent a lot of time stood out side the class in the corridor funny how dyslexia was treated in those days.
I'm totally waiting for his reaction when he realizes where the line of children are heading lol...............🤣🤣 Yep, it was worth it. I knew he was going to freak.
Now that you are back with Pink Floyd, hope you keep uploading reactions to more of their songs!
The lines in the poem in this video are some of the lyrics are from the song Money..
One teacher did it to me, my dad nearly killed him never tried it again 😂 classic tune
I had the pleasure to see Pink Floyd Live in 1988 in Mannheim Germany this will be forever my most remembered live open-air concert ... and I have been to many rock/metal concerts in my life...something that one will never see again ... the 80ties just rocked ...
This is historical song of producing "robots" my friend ✌️
I've been listening to Pink Floyd since I was in my crib. Lol
Joey I love your reactions to The Wall 💜 your old live stream of the entire album on YT is forever saved in my favorites - this music is brilliant and legendary
Lol I remember those good ol days lol. Too bad they started giving me to many copyright for going live on here
Crown Family oh my gosh yes and how stinky that was. I’m glad we have you on Twitch on the weekends to do a Jukebox at least 💜💜
Took me a couple of decades (from hearing it the first time till now) to realise that "Another Brick in the Wall" also means a name in a cheap memorial-wall that fathers of Pink Floyd's generation who never came back from WW2 got. I didn't make the connection when I saw the musical even though the main character's father died in the War.
"Daddy's flown across the ocean
Leaving just a memory
Snapshot in the family album
Daddy what else did you leave for me?"
Great reaction! Haha that part when the students dropped into the machine had you surprised and shook! Pretty fun seeing you react to this whole video
This song was released as a single, with scenes from the movie "The Wall" when I was around 10, it flew up the UK charts and was very popular in my school... I wonder why... lol. Anyhoo... I got 6 of the belt once, for something I hadn't done and just around the time of this song being in the charts. My mother was not best pleased, head teacher (whom shall remain nameless to protect the guilty) got a very angry visit the following morning.
For those that don't know, the belt in Scottish schools was a leather, purpose made strap, around 18" to 2' long, around 1.5" wide and a quarter inch thick, it was stiff and sturdy. You put your hands out, palm up, one hand under the other, got whacked, switched hands, got whacked again. 6 (3 on each hand) was the maximum allowed... it wasn't pleasant but I'm proud to say, even at 10 years old, I stood completely stone faced and took all 6... that pissed off the head teacher but not as much as my mother's visit the following day. Ah... memories... good old days, eh..?
That my dude is what the brits mean when we say meat for the machine...
“Money it gets back, I’m alright jack keep your hands off of my stack” his poem the teacher read, is a Pink Floyd song called money. “New car caviar four star day dream I think I’ll buy me a football team” it’s a groove baby.
Pink Floyed were a huge part of my childhood an teen years into adult life. Thier music had a profound impact on my outlook on life.
I even had a really strange near death experience involving a pink floyd song that to this day i simply cannot explain.
But my god that band was awesome.
"Repeat after me, An acre is the area of a rectangle, whose length is one furlong and whose width is one chain."
I just got my ass kicked by my little brother ans his crew. Tanks alot.
One of my teachers would make us memorise poems and whole acts from Shakespearian plays from class the day before. He would go down vhe line and if anyone got so much as a word out of place....let's just say that it was painful and traumatic! I'm 53 years old and the kids today have it so good! I was eleven years old when this happened, worst year of my life!
This is one of my favourite reaction videos EVER. You are so funny! Love it. I'm a 60 year old woman from the UK and grew up with Pink Floyd, Genesis, The Who, The Rolling Stones and The Beatles. I consider myself fortunate. Thank you for making me smile today :)
Absolute classic I remember when i first heard as a kid. Still listen to Pink Floyd
ONE DAY THE TEACHER KNOCKED ME DOWN THREE TIMES IN THE BACK OF THE PORTABUL. I DID NOT TELL MY DAD BECUSE HE WOULD HAVE GONE DOWN TO THE SCHOOL AND BEAT THE CRAP OUT OF HIM. DADS A WW2 VETT I AM 65 YEARS OLD
Aye, my dad served in france in ww2, the yanks call them the greatest generation, a fair tribute!
It was decent of you to save that teacher from having seven bales knocked out of him, I'm sure he never appreciated what you did for him!
One of my brothers came home crying after being strapped... hands glowing red. My fearless Irish mother marched up to the school to confront the teacher. Big ol' fat nun somehow managed to keep them separated! (Catholic school :) Her last words to the offending teacher were, "You're a fortunate man that it's not the boy's father coming to speak with you... he's a man of few words...". That particular teacher never used that strap again on ANY child!
Especially if your dad is James Dohan.
When I was in middle school I skipped class with a couple of guys. The standard punishment was paddling for boys, detention for girls. I insisted on the same punishment as the guys. My vice-principle was reluctant, but I kept insisting. I'm glad I did. Paddling was over in minutes, much better than hours in detention.
My wife got paddled in school. She looked up at the teacher and said "Is that it? My little brother hits me harder than that" she did not get spanked in school again.
I remember "The Wall " was aired on Mtv back in the eighties. You need to see the whole movie.
At 5:17 Oh HELL no!....that was so perfect LMAO!
I got several "paddlings" in school. My first was in 1st grade for a bs reason. I remember being terrified my father would find out. The rule in my house was if you got one in school, you'd get it twice as bad at home. My parents never found out, my teacher forgot to send the note home. I confessed to my parents when I was like 24 yrs old. My mother looked at me like she wanted to get a time machine and go back and beat my ass ROFL.
In high school, sometimes the male teachers (who were usually coaches) would get irritated with the class for cutting up and line up all the boys in the hall and we'd all get one. But it was more of a joke, didn't hurt, and we all thought it was funny.
The 90s down south were like a whole other country.
Once i got so many bruises my parents visited the school and complained to the headmaster, I was pulled out of that teachers class to see the headmaster and had to explain to the teacher in front of the class when i got back why i had been pulled out. His face was a picture. Ironically I generally had no probs with this teacher who was normally quite good. The bruises looked a lot worse than they felt and I wasn't really bothered about it. I actually thought the teacher was justified in what he did - just mistaken as I hadn't actually done what he thought and had told the headmaster as much. - never heard anymore about it but never told my parents about any problems after this either as i didn't want or need their involvement.
When you get around to watching The Wall, for the love of God *do it sober.* No booze, no grass, nothing trippy. Not even cold medicine. It will *mess you up.*
darastarscream It messed me up sober!
@@hshy485 Well yeah, but sober reduces the chance of permanent damage. Friend of mine told me she saw it for the first time after two days of no sleep. Nightmares for years.
I watched when I was 18 on hand full of shrooms, was awesome! Things we do when we were younger, I'm 53 now and Floyd is still my favorite band. Final Cut is sort of a continuation of the Wall. Then Roger's Amused to Death.Brilliant!
Maybe the less sober you are the less it will mess you up ;)
Whimp! Lol
I haven’t seen anyone else comment this but the whole album and accompanying opera are about the life of one of the band members and the events that led to his mental break and eventual death. The “another brick in the wall” line is about the things that put up a wall in his mind that he got trapped behind. If you listen to “comfortable numb” that is about what happened before he died when he was conscious but nonresponsive. A truly haunting and cautionary story that really sticks with you
Loved your reaction to this, watching your head bob to the rhythm of the music as the story is told, and your reactions to the subject matter ... It does this heart good to see someone enjoy the music of my mispent youth.
I was a kid in school in the UK when this came out, summed up our thoughts exactly. I never burnt down the school but I did smash some of the windows.
MoreChannelNoise
He he. One of my classmates locked a teacher inside a classroom once. Good times 👍🏻
@@Pixietoria I hated school, because the kids were brutal & mean AF. I too, remember one music teacher locking herself in the cupboard and crying, and another time, the sods made our new science teacher cry. But apart from a few twats, most of the teachers were pretty good - the top science guy was called Keith Moon (he used to preface various experiments/demonstrations with the immortal words "of course, they've banned this experiment now, but it's a good one", and he'd continue on to perform the banned experiment, to our delight :)
furriephillips
:)
furriephillips funny, we locked our music teacher in the cupboard and she started crying. Peace...
The teacher said 'You, yes you! Stand still, laddie'. Scottish accent.
Uh yeh , the actor that played the part was scottish
Love your reactions. You literally had me crying from laughter!
I knew 1 guy in my school (a long time ago) that got a strapping EVERY single day at school , after school the same guy would work for the teachers husband on his farm .. now that's strange but a true story ..
You really have to see the entire movie 'THE WALL' to understand this.
When you got to the grinder... I laughed so hard it hurts.
.
😂
I LOL'd harder than I have in a long, long time. Had to take a laff break. Funniest moment in any reaction vid I've seen yet! AWWWW HELL NAH hahaha
I just thought if you reacted that way to that don't watch Soylent Green
The guitar solo in this version is masked by the background sound track of the kids wrecking the school. The solo is gorgeous when heard on the pure audio version.
I spent 8th grade in a British school. The headmaster had canes and straps in his office to discipline students who got out of line. That is where I learned to say “Yes, sir!” very well to say the least.
Song's just as relative today as then. Common Core corrupts and closes minds.
More relevant today than ever.
So which teaching of common core do you disagree with? Logic? Science?
Proper liked you are why COVID-19 is raging out of control in America.
@@tofu_golem Common core is faulty. People are not common. It isn't logical or scientific. It teaches memorization, not learning and critical thinking. Education in tbr US is a failure. It has failed because of common core and because the federal gov shouldmt be in thr education system.
Mate I gotsta tell ya...
I grew up round this time. I still remember the old ways and watching this video was interesting to me.
I can forgive that it is your first time watching it but you got so little from it pal.
Songs back then, good songs, told a story. The album is the full story, each song is a chapter.
The album centres around a characters life journey.
"Another Brick" is his recollection of his school days, seen through the eyes of a wiser adult.
That is what you see first time you listen to the album.
The second time you listen you might hear a metaphor about how 'we' are manipulated through our lives by those that would use us.
First you see the teacher taking out his miserable home life on the backsides of the kids. Using them as stressballs I guess.
Second you see normal kids brainwashed into drones then put into the grinder.
The grinder IS the 'system'. 'We' exist to feed this system.
It's a fantastic 'rock opera' from the great Pink Floyd.
Camera work needs... work.
Peace...
Fantastic breakdown
You are right, the music back then had a meaning, an idea, told a story and sent a message. I am glad I grew up with this type of music, even though back then I didn't understand the lyrics and the language. Still we knew these songs by heart. I love how complicated were the stories told through music, I love how powerfull they were. Music had the power to wake the minds, still has it. But now people just make stupid songs with no idea. that whole idea of get it easy, be happy , don't think, chill, don't question things, don't worry, accept everything, don't judge... If those before us lived that way, we would still inhabit caves and afraid of the dark outside.
1860's? This is pure Dickonsen
Toured Scotland and Ireland in 2016, all the school kids were in uniforms. The tour guide said their schools don't have the problems our schools have here in the US. No disrespecting teachers, violence etc... I worked in a huge school district for almost 30 years, watched our education go down as the disrespect for teachers and each other went up. So very happy the day I retired. So sad. A report just came out that the students in China are kicking our students asses. Scary stuff.
Welcome to the best of Pink Floyd and the greatest prog rock band of all time. Turn it up, turn it up loud.
Man I need to see the movie again ....its been a while
Yeah. You know you're getting old when a riot brings sentimental tears to your eyes.
@@86crud I know I'm getting old when I look in the mirror ...First Floyd show I saw was ANIMALS in 77 I was only 11
Have you never heard "MONEY" by FLOYD ?
At school I used to get lectured for using double negatives.
Even the lyrics in this piece of art are genius 🤩
You've got to look up how they got the kids from a London school to sing, bloody hilarious, pink floyd are legends for good reason 🤣🎶❤️
“When I grew up and went to school there were certain teachers who would the children any way they could
By pouring their derision upon everything they did, exposing every weakness, however carefully hidden by the kid
But in the town it was well known when they got home at night their fat psychopathic wives would thrash them within inches of their lives
We don’t need no education
We don’t need no thought control
No dark sarcasm in the classroom
Teachers leave them kids alone
Hey! Teacher! Leave those kids alone!
All in all it’s just another brick in the wall
All in all you are just another brick in the wall
The teacher at the beginning says “You! Yes, you! Stand still, laddie!” We were still hit in schools in Britain well into the 80’s. I got hit a bunch of times, in first school, middle school and high school. It was banned in schools in 1987 (not including private schools), when I was 15. Yes, it hurt like hell, yes it was embarrassing when done in front of the class, but it wasn’t a big deal. It was normal. You misbehaved at school? You got corporal punishment.
WATCH THE WHOLE FILM! It’s fantastic.
That's crazy. I remember reading Harry Potter as a kid in the late 90s-2000s and thinking that the pretend school for misbehaved children where his uncle and aunt say he goes was an exaggeration or something typical of a kid's story, because to me hitting children with a cane was something teachers maybe did when my grandparents were kids in the 1930s, not recently.
@@Samhalta Obviously the school in Harry Potter was an exaggeration.
However, children were still given corporal punishment with the cane, the slipper, and the ruler (in my schools, it might have differed elsewhere) until 1987. In private school education it was legal until the 1990’s. Personally I see no harm in it, but that’s just me.
Great reaction. Thanks. This song was new when I was a freshman...it was huge!🤘☺
I was 15 yrs old when The Wall was released. When the single Another Brick in the Wall, Part 2 came out and went to number one in the UK, a teacher at my school too offense at the song. He read out a letter he had written to Pink Floyd saying children do need education and the importance of good schooling. For me and my friends, it was so hard not to laugh because he was so angry and the more of the letter he readout, the angrier he became.
In 1982, I went with a couple of friends to see the film version of The Wall. It was more like being at a concert than watching a film. It was one of the best experiences I have ever had at the movies.
Kep these great reaction videos coming. This one was an absolute blast to watch.
That takes me back a lot to I had a wooden ruler what's a steel strip down the front of it smacked over my fingers when I was in first or second grade by a Catholic school teacher because I pen exploded on the desk that I was sitting at and got ink all over it I remember it like it was yesterday and that was some 50 years ago
James - I had similar thing done to me at a non-Catholic state run school. My hand was on the edge of the desk and the teacher brought the ruler down with so much force it snapped in half. Broke two of my knuckles in the process. Fucker refused to let me see the school nurse and made me pay for a replacement ruler. When I said no he told me the choice was pay for the broken ruler or go to the headmaster to be caned. I was ten and had no idea of my rights so I brought in my pocket money the next day and handed it over. Wish I knew then what I know now.
The turning students into meat scene has several meanings. Grinding up a child's hopes and dreams. Schools taking individuals and meshing them together to 'fit in' with society. Also, if you liken to the song 'Welcome To The Machine', this is an oblique reference to that as well. If you take the song/video just as it is, it's excellent. BUT! If you watch/listen to the whole thing it's a masterpiece.
Back in 1979/80, This song was everywhere, I loved it but they flogged the crap out of it, after about 6 months I was sick of it but 40 years later, I love it again.
Still one of the best albums, ever!
Pink Floyd The Wall.
I have to say, I love Floyd and I've seen that movie probably a dozen times. But I have never had as much fun watching it as I did watching you watch it.
YOU NEED TO WATCH THE MOVIE... PINK FLOYD.. THE WALL... PREFERABLY UNDER THE INFLUENCE😄😄😄 EITHER WAY YOU NEED TO... I was a teen when the EP AND MOVIE WERE RELEASED... ONLY SLIGHTLY REBELLIOUS... PROMISE YOU'LL ENJOY IT🔥🔥🔥🔥 REMEMBER THEY ARE ENGLISH AND STARTED THE BAND IN THE 60'S MEANING THEY'RE CHILDREN OF WW2
Sillyas Iwannabe Yes, Acid or mushrooms, It’s an experience then
@@marcbolinger3648 I'm gonna guess he won't put that on video😄😄😄😄 i would trust fungi more now... To many alt chems in cid now😄😄😄
@@marcbolinger3648 anyone who wastes an acid or mushrooms indoors watching a movie is wasting a perfectly good trip go outside and enjoy the city with other people trippin. Take in the world.
"WHAAAAAAT?"
Welcome to the machine.
Pink Floyd,always challenging,always thought-provoking,always fucking brilliant.
The literal translation of education is training of animals.the ground beef means a mashing of any individuality into one workforce.
It's always funny watching Americans react to music and videos from overseas, particularly the incredible work of the British bands of the 70's and 80's. For instance in this video JoeyDaPrince freaks out wihen the children fall into a mincing machine and come out as mince meat. He reacts like all Americans ... in a literal sense. Americans have a real problem understanding the nuances of the lyrics and imagery. So in this video they see children being minced up and freak out, when the rest of us understand and interpret these images into a representation that modern society is geared towards conformity, so that citizens all think and act the same, in other words we are minced together and all come out as a copy of each other and conform to the requirements of society. This imagery is a protest against commercialism, the dumbing down of citizens and demanding that we all conform to a standard set of expectations.
A Lot Of Americans Understand & Appreciate Symbolism.😇😇💝💝🙏🙏✝️✝️🧱💰
I never fully understood this movie until I had my heart broken, catching my longtime girlfriend cheating, and then watched The Wall while on mushrooms .... The phone ringing still haunts me...
High school, 1982, returning to class after a fire drill the whole student body started singing this filling the halls. That was cool.
This can't be viewed independently is has to be seen in context of the movie. It is in my opinion the greatest movie/theatre production in the 20th century and will live on as an absolute classic and iconic production. The movie makes endless social commentary about the era and represents the times so acutely it will never die. The fact it was produced by a rock band is also important in terms of historical context. Thank you Pink Floyd for your incredible music, and social commentary which culminated in this movie. You have enriched the world and our lives so much. Long live "The Wall".
People are so literal nowadays. Do they no longer teach metaphor, allegory or poetry? They weren't getting turned into 'ground beef', literally, lol. :)
I wondered if it was an American thing. I mean it wasn't exactly subtle.
@@strangelee4400 1906 novel The Jungle by Upton Sinclair... it was meant to be socialist propaganda but everyone was more horrified about contaminated meat and unsafe work conditions that often led workers (some as young as children) being turned into ground meat. Ironically, Sinclair got what he wanted, better working conditions and regulations in the meat industry, because people didn't want to eat contaminated meat.
Jeez, dude, that doesn't mean it isn't a shocking image. I know I winced and had to look away the first time I saw the film.
+Chad Smith No, it was not meant to be "socialist propaganda". It was meant to be a book about the horrible life of the working poor in the early 20th century. Only right-wing asshat call it "propaganda", and that's because y'all don't give a shit about poor people.
@Serai3 - Of course it's shocking. It's meant to be. That wasn't the point I was making. He missed the visual metaphor completely, only seeing it literally.
Luckily this is the first song I listened to by Pink Floyd
My English teacher showed it to me.
Mickey Goh Same
My maths teacher was a huge Floyd fan. Wheeled in the tv/video player one day and said "no maths today, I'm going to teach you something more important" before playing the entire "The Wall" movie.
We were 13 at the time. Still my favourite teacher.
I heard a lot of times - still getting goosebumps
Grade school (1st-4th).
Principal had a bottom drawer FULL of paddle.
Made you choose which one.
And the gambit?, wrapped in duct tape; holes every 1/2 inch apart; engraved with his name; engraved with school name.
"If you don't eat your meat, how can you have any pudding?" How many people became vegetarian because of this song?
F***k that! I ain't turning into no ground beef! XD
Lmao no way
Joey I so enjoy your reactions! You’re the real deal. Keep doing you! 👍🏽✌🏽💪🏽
From a back in the day hippie, I so enjoyed your reaction to the fabulous song.
When did they start letting cameras into the NYC public school system.
Next reaction by Pink Floyd "Coming back to life"
You actually got TWO Pink Floyd songs for the price of one, the first being "The Happiest Days of Our Lives" which as the visuals and the lyrics will testify, is about Sadistic teachers, taking delight in belittling their students.
The second was "Another brick in the wall" which as the visuals and lyrics will show is about the Students revolting.
And as an extra Easter egg, that poem that the Teacher is reading out loud are the lyrics of a third Pink Floyd song, "Money"
