Somebody once said you don't listen to Pink Floyd, you feel them. It's true.
yep
Because Dave Gilmour doesn’t just play guitar he plays emotions
Yes, yes it is.
Music is meant to touch the soul and reflect emotions through organized sound. You cry when you listen to Pink Floyd because they are simply one of the best at producing real music that touches us all on a deep personal and emotional level. Gilmour plays with conviction, he plays what he means and means what he plays.
Simple as that!
Absolutely agreed 💯
I don't know the details, but have heard from other artists that what David did in tuning his guitar was unique.
There is music, then there's floyd ❤
I’m a 64 year old man and Pink Floyd brings tears to my eyes every day 🥲
I'm 75. Look out over the vast, unimaginative, dull, dreary pop/hip-hop musical landscape of the past 30 years. Then listen to Pink Floyd. You now understand why many in my generation weep for yours. How amazing that young people today are discovering the music that has enriched the lives of Boomers for many years. Enjoy your journey!
I’m a 61 year old man and they bring tears to my eyes. They are just that powerful.
Same age, I have no tears but ... see above
@@nick-5naudin519 Same age and I shed those tears on your behalf.
you're not alone. It's a common response to Floyd. Gilmour is a master at evoking emotion. His guitar literally sings.
The tears mean you're doing it right. Fine musicians are not just making pleasant sounds. They are trying with everything in them; the lyrics, the music, the staging, and the performance; to convey an emotion; to make you feel something. Some people won't let themselves have the experience but, If you're open to it, it's an experience like no other. Thanks for being open.
You nailed it. Good music should evoke emotion in the listener.
"Music is what emotions sound like" a guy called Tuomas...
I'm a 60 year old man and have been listening to Pink Floyd for 50 of those years. Not long ago I was driving down the highway listening to "shine on you crazy diamond". Tears rolled down my face. Its inexplicable.
Same…
So to feel we share these old emotion with new generations again and again
it occurs when you are in contact whith beauty ...
"Pull up, Pull up!" :) Don't crash and burn, or were you "Learning to fly"?
No doubt. 72 here and David still vibrates my soul like I was 19.
It's comforting to know a younger generation is experiencing this heart-felt music.
I would say the reason you get emotional with their music is that it’s touching your soul and it resonates with you deeply. I feel the same and have for 50 years.
Stacey, don't you worry about the tears, I'm 64 and have been crying at 99% of the stuff Pink Floyd turn out, David, Nick, Richard and Roger were just the best band ever, period, no other band has had an effect on people more than these lads.
I love your show. Pink Floyd for ever. I’m 80 years old and still after 50 years of P.F. I can’t get enough.
Am 73 and thought am the only one getting emotional when listening to this guitar
It’s lovely to see a beautiful young woman who is open emotionally to the music of a bunch of old, British guys who wrote their best work 50 years ago….it says a lot about you and them…a deep communication across the ages, nations, sexes. Brava Stacey, you’ve tumbled down one of the most astonishing and rewarding rabbit holes on Earth…enjoy the journey!
Well said my fellow PF fan.
❤
Their music is timeless really..so good...symphonic rock...
❤ I really like your reaction, your sensitivity moves me! When I first listened to Pink Floyd's music I was like you, I had tears in my eyes and chicken flesh. 50 years later it still has the same effect on me😁!
@jyh5322 it sure is incredible how their music affects us.
Believe me, when David lets rip, there's hardly a dry eye in the house! During the Pulse tour (yes, I was there THAT night!), I saw grown men weeping on each other's shoulders - not too clearly because I was sobbing all the way through it myself. The whole night was so overwhelming. It was a religious experience.
I can confirm this...I wasn't at the Earl's Court show that became the Pulse show, but I saw them on the Division Bell tour, on which they did the exact same show...It was just as magical as you think it'd be.
Pink Floyd at Earls Court, the greatest gig in my life.
@@eddiewallace6372 me too... the very last night !
There was my life before seeing them in Tampa in 1994 and then my life after
I was at their Earl's Court, London gig in 1994 when the gig was pulled as the intro to the show was underway because there had been a partial seat collapse. No serious injuries thankfully.
We all came back 2 weeks later.
It's like a two hour trip, Stacey. Tears don't come into it when it's vibrating live through your body.
Mind you, we were also stoned off our faces which probably contributed to the experience😂 But al these years later listening and watching this and you on my phone i still feel the same sensations.
You're reaction is beautiful. Thank you and bestvwishes to you❤
I've concluded that mankind won't produce this type of music ever again. Absolutely wonderful.
David Gilmore has mastered the art of playing with quality of notes, not quantity. Nobody puts notes in echelon like he does. He is the best.
His guitar sings even better than he does.
Gilmour
Even the silence is notes in their music
It takes a few years to learn how to play guitar but a lifetime to learn what to leave out
Absolutely well, put excellent observation.
His body is so reaches out for each note
As usual, a phenomenal reaction and a wonderful way of explaining your experience of music. I am 65 years old... my youth and growing up were marked by Pink Floyd, Led Zeppelin, Black Sabbath and Deep Purple... under the influence of these I became a musician (drummer) myself... I played professionally for about thirty years... now retired myself...I want to say that I am extremely glad to see that a person as young as you responds remarkably to the music of these bands and recognizes without fail all the true values in their music. Once again- well done Stacy and keep it up!
Aww thank you!! I appreciate your kind words and I’m jealous of your youth! Thank you for the lovely comment
You're welcome ... you really deserved it ... And yes - you should in some way (a little) regret not growing up at that time because your soul and your sensibility are obviously very close to those times ... but as you are she herself said - it's never too late ... thanks to modern technologies you have the opportunity to discover all the beauty of former music when people really played and were really engaged in real art and not computers (let's be clear - I have nothing against modern technologies - I use them a lot myself )...just keep going - you're on the right track!@@StaceyRPGReacts
As the saying goes, “I may be old, but at least I got to see all the best bands”
That was also my up bringing, altho my dad didn't like those groups, he was a Beatles only man, still today I cannot please him with Pink Floyd. Maybe a little closed personality, because if you can't go into this material, you're probably going to have a bad "trip"
❤
I'm 61yo and Pink Floyd still effects me exactly the same way. In tears still purely from the beauty of the music. Also, I'm a professional musician.
Hi here to at a 61 year old and i grew up like yourself with floyd There just Floyd doing what they do best. Giving us there music and knowledge. Peace my friend
Hi ! Here I'm 62 and know PF since (for first time) 1979 The Wall than fall in love with them and their work
I too am 61, Stacey cries because it's music from the soal and it's real..................
I love so much music, but PF really tugs at my heart, whilst I agree with everything you said, I find there music celestial, breathtakingly awe-inspiringly magnificent ❤
@@scottkillathats right
No matter how many times I watch this live version, that belt from Margaret Taylor gives me chills every time.
Right?
I've been listening to Pink Floyd for 40+ years. To watch you hear David Gilmour's magic for the first time, and discover what so many of us already know, and have known for a very very long time .......... and watching the tears of joy fall down your face. Brings tears to my eyes. Such a beautiful thing, such amazing music.
Hearing someone get reeled in by Pink Floyd and really being able to articulate what they are feeling is so satisfying.
It’s like a time machine taking you back to your own personal experience and reliving that moment.
You are not the only one who is crying . David Gilmours guitar playing is not from this world. I would recommend to watch the live version of "High Hopes" and "The Great Gig In The Sky" from the Pulse Concert. Thanks for your wonderful reaction. Lets dive in the world of Pink Floyd :)
Agreed on both songs. However, I would choose High Hopes live from David Gilmour Live from either Remember That Night dvd or Live in Gdansk with whole orchestra. Either is a masterpiece. Especially with classical guitar ending. On Great Gig in the Sky. I think new comers should be introduced with original studio recording from Dark Side of the Moon to showcase Clare Torry's phenomenal vocal performance. Heck, Stacey should do WHOLE Darkside album. We'll need a whole box of tissues for that one. And then 2 boxes of tissues for Shine On You Crazy Diamond alone.
Jeff beck blows Gilmour away on amused to death
@dskellfloyd.9347 Amused to Death is one of my favs. Beck is great on It's A Miracle and Three Wishes. Though I do think Gilmour would elevate to a whole new level. My taste. Your taste may be different. That's the beauty of art. Something for everyone.
I've said this before and I believe it more now than ever, if the human race survives it's adolescence, in a thousand years, Pink Floyd's music will be heard on a hundred different worlds. It may be already, maybe that's why we have "visitors", they come for the groovy tunes.
Is it only a dream that there’ll be no more turning away?
I’ve never understood how a person could not be moved by this song considering the message.
Please cry. It means you’re human. Hope you continue to enjoy your journey into Pink Floyd.
Highly recommend Wish You Were Here if you haven’t listened yet.
This is why David Gilmour is considered to be one of the all time greats. His emotions come out of his guitar playing. You just feel it deep down to the core. Check out High Hopes from Pulse, or the album version from The Division Bell. Just a beautiful ride!
👍 High Hopes.
Speaking of the backup vocalist, I strongly recommend you react "Great Gig In The Sky" from this concert. All three vocalists get to shine individually.
Agreed. Pulse gets most of the hype, but this concert is so good, and the three ladies on vocals are incredible, especially on that song.
I was thinking the same, she must react to "Great Gig in the Sky" PULSE live
@@Ramesangel Not to take away from the Pulse performance but, the performance from "A Delicate Sound Of Thunder" is much, much better. In my humble opinion, this is a better concert.
@@Tarkus_ Oh, I agree completely!!
Yes, although Pulse is a better overall production, the musical performance on The Delicate Sound of Thunder, imho, is superior.
I have had people ask me what my favorite Pink Floyd song is. My response is whichever song I am listening to at the moment. They play on your heart and emotions. The best band ever!!!
The older you get, the more emotional their songs become. None as much as their song "Time". I'm 60 yrs old, heard the song thousands of times, but , until recently, never felt the lyrics as much as I do now
This is so true. They’ve been my favorite band since I was 17. I’m 46. I feel the music so much more deeply now. And I get the goose bumps every. Single. Time.
I'm 77. I think you are right!
Ive listened to Pink Floyd for over 50 years. When you said 'i need them' something clicked. Ive needed them all these years and didnt realise what i was feeling. Thank you.
Ive heard all the radio hits but never dived into their whole albums old and newer.boy did I find gold!! the intrumental "marooned" really caught my ear and i put it as nr 1 on a "chill" playlist cos I was planning on doing a psycedelic trip on magic mushrooms for the first time and felt that kinda music would be fitting. as the trip was beginning to brew I put on "marooned" on utube with alot of space pictures from Hubble telescope. OMG.... as the quirky "woooop" sound played at the intro I was thrown into a different experience of music and visuals. it all came together in a amazing trip.my cat that was laying on my foot rest became a fairytale version xD then utube played next song sorrow. also incredible! I was not listening to music,I was having a other wordly experience :D I listen to enitre albums of PF that night. it gave my soul a new life cos I was kinda burnt out and depressed. this was soul medecine in all the levels possible. PF and pcilocybin mushrooms changed my life . a spiritual rebirth :D
Carry on brother carry on brother
Then you have a lot to feel a whole lot to feel
David wrote music to touch every emotion in every person that listened to it , He would write from life experiences from himself or someone close to him. He never got sidetracked with a different sound or something that didn’t tell a story, every song had a meaning and story to tell and he and the band gave us 10000% percent with every song and every performance never giving anything less. David is a class act , down to earth individual , one of those people who would sit down to lunch with a complete stranger just because you started a conversation with him.
I have been listening to Pink Floyd for over 40 years. My absolute favorite band of all time. Had the privilege of seeing them live in 1994 at the Divisional Bell concert in Nashville, TN. I shared that concert with my best friend who had been diagnosed with cancer. He only lived 2 years after our experience in Nashville. Hearing them now is very emotional for me as it brings back memories of my best friend. Seeing you get emotional brings me to tears as well. Just the fact that it affects you as it does me speaks highly for the musicianship of the band. No band has quite had an effect on me like Pink Floyd. Thank you for your reaction on the song and your review. Blessings.
Pink Floyd is about as rare as it gets for emotive psychological psychedelic music. When listening to them, I often think of how lucky the world is to have this band. I tear up still, and I appreciate them more the older I get. It's insane that the bulk of this transcendent work was stuff they'd written in their 20's. You're definitely still on the tip of the pink iceberg. Great seeing you react, thank you!
Back in O.C. Calif when I was 30 my wife heard a commercial on the radio about a David Gilmour show coming up. Knowing I am a Floyd fan she called the radio station (KMET - LA, “The Mighty Met”) to get information on the concert, The DJ on live radio Cynthia Fox…. said...."Congratulations, YOU are caller number 10, YOU just won tickets to the show and the Sound Check Party before the show"...
I met David Gilmour back stage. He gave us both a signed album that I have in my music room. We talked for 22 minutes. I called him…“The Master Of The Stratocaster” He smiled. I told him his music will stand the test of time with anything from Beethoven or Mozart. He smiled even bigger. I asked if I could shake both his hands that make such great guitar solos, he smiled bigger and said “Sure” and shook both hands at the same time, making a cross between us, I smiled HUGE. Hard to explain how awesome that moment was in my life. I asked him to describe his technique of playing guitar, he replied… “I strike a note, bend it, shake it and then release it”…. Yes, he does that quite well, better than any other guitarist I know. . I told him in my eyes he’s a “Legend“. He thanked me and said “Enjoy the show”…. during the concert after the song “Money” he looked right at me and said…. “On saxophone, another Legend, Mr. Raphael Ravenscroft” … acknowledging my comment to him. It is my favorite moment in over 300 shows I’ve seen.
I asked David…. How do you create those awesome solos?… he said….. I sit on a stool and listen to what Roger, Nick and Rick put down and play along. I listen to what I played and pick out what I like, then I put the pieces together into one piece then learn to play it as one. Our fans are fanatics for our shows to sound like the albums so I must play it correctly each time in a show. I have the concert Brochure and album on the wall with David’s picture centerfold.
Isnt that the prime example of what makes a great artist. They listen, they perceive, they are in tune with the world. It is not about them, it is about the greater creation.
Beyond envious, I saw David 6 times in concert, 4 with Pink Floyd, but never met him, what an awesome memory! He is an example of the very best of humanity, both for his music and for his philanthropy.
Thaaatz better than my VH story kudos to U brother and Ur wife 2

It is so gratifying to watch someone discover what sets Pink Floyd apart from other bands. It's the emotion they are able to convey through their music that makes them so special. David Gilmour can tap into your soul with his voice and his guitar.
I discovered Pink Floyd with that song at 9. Changed my life. I m 40.
Same here, but I heard my first Pink Floyd song in 1977, at 12 years old, when the Album Animals was released and I was absolutely changed by it and all the previous albums I listened to from that day forward. It has never stopped and here I am today being touched in the same way as 50 years ago watching a young person experience what I did 50 years ago.
The part where all the band members are singing together with out any music @ 6:51 is quite incredible.
Angelic ..
czcams.com/video/1IVDVLeXBmQ/video.htmlsi=U9R5W-maGCe7cHkx scrub this video to 1:25 mark. I had read something about during rehearsals David thought it sounded great without any music. love hearing them practice. also later in the video you see them blowing up that pig LOL
yeah around the 11 minute mark they are inflating the Pig 😂
High hopes pulse 1994 really displays the complex and beauty of David's voice along with another fabulous solo
100%
Nightwish does an incredible tribute to Pink Floyd with this song.
Totally agree !
I concur about the Nightwish tribute to High Hopes. I used to listen to Pink Floyd's version when Division Bell came out, and saw it live on that tour. A different emotional feel, but David Gilmore apparently liked it. Marko does it justice.
67 here and I first heard them as a 17 year old raised on old style country music. Their music is woven into my life and many wonderful memories have their music as a background. Thank you again for such a beautiful reaction.
I'm 62 yrs old...I've seen Pink Floyd in concert....every song takes you on a different journey each time you hear it
You cry because they speak to your heart. They've been making me weep for 50 years because their music reasonates with my soul. This performance gets me every time - if I'm not already crying, I am when Machan screams that high note at the moment of peak energy. There is so much more, you have a journey ahead of you with PF. I look forward to watching - great reaction!
Well said!
Anything off of the Dark Side of the Moon album
is an musical emotional amusement park for the soul. From the first time I heard Pink Floyd, I knew who would always be my favorite band.
Five decades later, no other band has come close to reaching the deepest regions of my heart the way they have. Cheers. ❤❤❤
One of their mediocre albums, real Floyd fans know what albums are much better than dark side
@@dskellfloyd.9347in your self inflated opinion
Wow, to dis Dark Side of the Moon.....I can't believe you are serious. The song Time is a snapshot of how short our lives are and a reminder not to waste our time. Brilliant guitar.. I first heard Dark Side of the Moon when I was a 15yo paperboy. The best band ever..
To me the only band who come close to them in terms of touching the depths of my heart are definitely Radiohead.
The way we listened to this music back in the day, was on big speakers, attached to a great stereo system, playing vinyl, with a group of friends. Music lovers today really don't know how much of the full experience they are missing. But it's gratifying to see new generations appreciating the timeless rock music from the golden age. Keep exploring, and enjoy - you have a lot of catching up to do. 😉
You hit the nail on the head. The emotion that this band and especially this song bring forth, is just unexplainable. Truly one of the best bands of all time.
First of all, A+ for not pausing during a Gilmour guitar solo. I've listened to Pink Floyd since the 70s, and their music still wraps around my soul every time. Great reaction, young lady.
Your not the first person I’ve seen tear up listening to this band. I’ve seen people absolutely break down bawling for minutes at a time . They just touch peoples emotions with the sound they create. It’s magic
I'm 67, grew up with Pink Floyd, classical rock and roll is what I've always called it.
I'm A 62 year old grandpop I've seen pink Floyd two times and I still cry 😢 it's what we're supposed to do allis well ❤❤
That whole concert was a big farewell to a generation.
You are so sweet and honest in your reactions. Your channel is going to blow up you have heart ❤️ and passion and your format is great we are here for your musical ride 🙏🏻😉
Thank you for your sweet words!!! I really appreciate them 🤍
You expressed that well. I agree. Subbed!
Try Great Gig in the Sky, I have been listening to Pink Floyd for over 35 years and this song still makes me cry
I am a 65 year old man, and have been listening to floyd most of my life, and much like you trying to understand why they invoke such powerful feelings in me. I finally think I have worked it out for me. Floyd and David Gilmour with music and words draw you in and strip your body and mind bare until, you only feel all your emotions at once, then Gilmour cuts you open and speaks to your sole with his lead breaks with that Stratocaster and some how it all makes sense, you feel something that you're never felt before . At the end of the song you look down and there is no cut, but know he has been there. AND YOUR HEALED .
As others have commented, the backup singers are brilliant and it's easy to miss them but once you listen for them they play a very significant part in the song.
ABSOLUTELY!!! PF has layer-upon-layer of tones, levels, acoustic, electric, percussion, keyboard, performers take their turns at being front-and-center in a song. And you-know-who gets the lion's share of the #1 position, and rightfully so.
Thank you for your video. The closest thing I will ever get to hearing this band again for the first time is reliving that experience through someone else who not only hears it but appreciates it the way you do, so thank you for that. For me, when I discovered them way back when, I had never heard a band put together music as full composers, the way the greats put together symphonies. Every instrument has a purpose, every voice. Even the silences and the builds and fades are there to evoke an emotional experience. The genius, the heart, and the touch of madness that made up the soul of this group captures a feeling like no other band. They didn't make songs, they crafted whole albums in a time when you were meant to put the needle down and let it sit for the whole record and go on the journey with them. Thanks for keeping this alive.
Was lucky enough to hear Floyd play "On The Turning Away" live at the Pulse Concert at Earls Court in October 1994, the set of concerts that you see "Comfortably Numb" on with the Giant Mirror Ball coming down from the ceiling during Gilmour's solo and I was sitting directly opposite the giant mirror ball in the top balcony on the left hand side looking towards the stage..!! The Pulse concert from lights, lasers, explosions, pyrotechnics, special effects, flying Spitfire, Giant Wild Boars each side of the stage and then the music which has to go down as the GREATEST CONCERT OF ALL TIME..!! PS "On The Turning Away" which is one of my favourite songs brought tears to my eyes like many 100's of other people and Gilmour's solo went on for 7mins..ABSOLUTELY AMAZING, Still sends shivers down my spine 30years later
Stacy, I love everyone who loves Pink Floyd.
I watched your reactions to Pink Floyd and realized that you loved Pink Floyd, which means I love you. Listen to them more and get great emotions. This is great music and a great band. It's a pity that they quarreled and ran away, and keyboardist Richard Wright is no longer with us.
Stacey Floyd fans are many, the music takes you on a different journey each time you listen to them. For me, it reminds me of my high school years. The 70s were filled with music, friends, parties, and laughter. Floyd will forever be in my soul
Yes, we do understand how you feel, many have the same experiences, it's why Pink Floyd has such a following that only grows. 😊❤❤❤
From a very very old metal rock head, who has experienced Pink Floyd live 3 times and their songs millions of times. I’m so glad your revisiting Pink Floyd and yes you will get emotional, Pink Floyd is all about the experience of the song, so enjoy the tears as I have again from a very very old biker metal head. Your not tearing up along but your supported by millions of Pink Floyd fans who are tearing up along side you. I’m really enjoying your discovery of this multigenerational band. I suggest keeping with the pulse concert, Run Like Hell, Learning to Fly, Sorrow, and High Hopes, to start. Stay Safe Rock On, God Bless. 🙏🥲🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
Pink Floyd is something you feel, as much as listen to. They make you think, reflect, and have always found the absolute shortest distance between your heart, brain and soul. They are unique in that they elicit so much feeling while still marvelling at the incredible music they created. Loved your reaction, and the way you allow yourself to just be in the moment with them. Thanks for sharing!!
Been listening to Floyd for over 45 years and I still am moved by them every single day. No idea where my life would be without their music.
At 65 it still does bring tears to my eyes so we share the love of Pink Floyd
These guys are their own genre. I highly recommend watching the Pulse concert.
I see you’ve already reacted to Comfortably Numb 😂🤘
"These guys are their own genre" - that's perfect. Very well said 👏👏🤘
I still cherish all my original, first edition albums from the 60s and 70s, etc. So glad you're enjoying Pink Floyd and others.
Welcome to world of one of the worlds greatest bands. These are true musicians and song writers. Natural reaction of tears is what you are feeling in your heart. David has a true knack for his riffs making people cry.
It brings tears to your eyes because you experience and feel the music inside your soul.
5:06 because Mr Gilmour has one of the most embracing welcoming voices in the world. He has perfected his skill over decades, to sound like your friend before you even met him. His guitar is the same, he has known from day one, what a warm pleasant sound is. You don't have to show off or flex with crazy speed, he just sounds beautiful. Every note he plays on guitar is done with intention, emotion, none are wasted, and he is doing it for the audience, no self indulgence...there is a reason why he is a living legend.
We are so blessed to have pink floyd in this strange world.
'Sorrow'....from their 1994 PULSE concert is another great one to watch the backup singers. This one was from their 1988 concert. Saw them 3 times on their 1988 tour....& twice in 1994. Still remember everything like it was yesterday.
As a Floydian it's so amazing to watch you discover my favourite band! As other floydians suggested, check next 2 emotional songs: Time and The great gig in the sky. They are from their iconic album: The dark side of the moon and in fact, they float from one to another so it's good to liaten them together :)
Im glad u love Pink Floyd good to cry let the tears flow Stacey they just great thanks the channel is good keep on listenening to Pink Floyd best ever Dave,s voice wow
Pink Floyd is more than just music. They changed my life and my way to see life.
Beautiful young lady, I'm a 56 yr old man, i was 21 in 88, I would see this very tour in Melbourne Australia, 🤯🤯, you're bang on, there are no words, and absolute out of body, almost other worldly experience!! been floyded since I was a young boy, and still choke up everytime I listen to them, mesmerizing!!
I watched this video again because it's so unbelievably rewarding to see people getting hooked on Pink Floyds music. I grew up in the 80's and have been into music for as long as I can recall, and I can honestly say that I have never come across any other band quite like them. There are a lot of really good bands and musicians out there, but these guys, for me, are it! No other comes close. Like you, I'm at a loss why their music has such an impact on me, but it does. It is sublime and it goes straight to the heart!!
RPG, been listening to Pink Floyd for years hearing PF is one part feeling PF is way beyond this earth, God sent.
Girl, Floyd's music is just emotional. Its so well crafted and thought out. Their music has a gravity to it that sometimes can only be felt and expressed through emotion. Happens to me all the time.
Been listening to Pink Floyd for over 55 years. No other band can consistently take over your heart and soul when listening to them.
I agree. I have two favorites: Pink Floyd and Stevie Ray Vaughan!
Il fatto è che i Pink Floyd non sono stati soltanto una grande band musicale ma pure dei magnifici dispensatori di sogni ed emozioni
La chitarra di Gilmour non è inserita soltanto in un amplificatore ma direttamente nell'anima.
Saluti italiani 🇮🇹
Senza dubbio!
Once you feel music you know it reaches your heart and that is good! Pink Floyd is for me still the best and that will remain so until the day I die. It will be played at my end of life party whenever that will be.
I can listen to this song “on loop” and never get tired of it. I’m absolutely 100% with you on the emotional trip this song takes us into. They don’t make music like this anymore….from the rhythm section to the backup vocals, its absolute perfection!!! (I also cry “on the inside”) I’m touched that you’re touched….just like me!!!
Another fantastic reaction, if you dont want more tears then please stay away from High Hopes from the Pulse Concert that is a true masterpiece, regarding vocalists not outshining the lead vocal its great to see how David sits back and watchers the vocalists on Great Gig in the Sky also on the pulse concert so much respect given to them by him on that track, great thing with Pink Floyd is if you are feeling low and down, listening to a few of their songs on Pulse or watching people like yourself relive what i felt when i first saw them is such an uplifting healing process
Well said!
5:21 I’m so glad you have a shout out to the drums! Nick Mason is the reason why I got into Pink Floyd and drumming in general. His drumming has such a powerful rhythm and an ear-catching sound that you can’t resist. It always saddens me more reactors don’t give him mentions and/or shout outs. His performance in “Time” from Pulse where it’s shown he plays rototoms in the beginning deserves to be watched soon.
And Echoes live Pompeii in 72.
I was at their Earl's Court, London gig in 1994 when the gig was pulled as the intro to the show was underway because there had been a partial seat collapse. No serious injuries thankfully.
We all came back 2 weeks later.
It's like a two hour trip, Stacey. Tears don't come into it when it's vibrating live through your body and the electricity of all those people reacting so passionately is mind blowing
Mind you, we were also stoned off our faces which probably contributed to the experience😂 But all these years later listening and watching this and you on my phone i still feel the same sensations.
And no weed smoking for over 10 years now😉😅
You're reaction is beautiful. Thank you and best wishes to you❤
This was from the delicate sound of thunder concert, some years earlier. But .... Pink Floyd never gives their credits away! Simply the best band of the world! No one can touch our feelings like them!
You dont just hear Pink Floyd , their music touches the SOUL !
Crying along with you. Pink Floyd is like no other band on the planet.
Me too 😢 I'm crying since 30 years
Listening to Pink Floyd is the catharsis you didn't know you needed.
A number of years ago we had a TV advert here in the UK for a beer (or lager) with the slogan "It reaches the parts other beers cannot reach."
It's the same with Pink Floyd's music, even now all these years later.
This band reached the parts of your mind that other bands couldn't. They got inside your head.
thank you for this good song . P F best band of all times , 😎👍 next one from Pink Floyd - Shine on you crazy diamond 1 to 5 ( studio version ) . 🎸🎶
I concur
Nothing compares to Pink Floyd live. They are so genuine.
Have you ever seen Pink Floyd “Live in Pompei”? Omg. It’s a film they made in 1972 where they set up all of their equipment in the ruins of an ancient Roman amphitheater (no audience) and they recorded their performance. Just Roger, David, Nick, and Richard in their prime. It’s unreal.
You are very eloquent and clearly think deeply about what you are witnessing.
A legendary band like Pink Floyd deserve that sort of respect.
Thank you for your reactions. I enjoy watching them and of course any opportunity to watch the iconic Pink Floyd again is welcome
Thats why i consider them the best band ever. There lyrics and musicianship is second to none. The back up singers really add so much depth to the song. They're are almost angelic when they harmonize together in this song. Brings tears to my eyes also. Beautiful reaction. You have only scratched the surface of the pink floyd catalog. Keep em coming.
The most beautiful emotional wreck I've ever seen! Your reaction completely brought justice to Pink Floyd's magic! Blessings to you!
The backup lady singers are Angels from the heavens, we floydians know their incredible contribution whereas in a lot of bands they may be overlooked or just fade into the background Floyd make sure they are part of the soul of the band and are an integral part of the experience. One part in an array of wonderful complimantary muciscal genius. Youre reaction to these songs is incredible and takes me back to my first experiences being privilaged to be on this earth with such incompressible talent. We truely are lucky to be alive to witness this other wordly experience 🙏
Long story short, I was at a recording studio once where pink Floyd were recording for a documentary. I was waiting in a room where there was a screen showing them play. Among others in the room was a female singer from a, at the time, significant group. She to cried and I remember her turning to the rest of us and pretty much saying exactly what you said ‘He gets me ever time’. I can also guarantee that I have seen grown men tear up at Pink Floyd concerts and there is no shame in that at all. Genesis doing firth of fifth live gets me every time.
Your summary not only addressed On The Turning Away, but just about every Pink Floyd song. Roger's lyrics and his voice, his compositions, David's guitar talent, voice and compositions, Rick's keyboard skills, top rate backup singers, light shows, show props, sound quality, flawless performances and so on, totally immerse you in their music and experience. Then you leave the venue in a totally numb state which you remember for the rest of your life.
Exactly!
Your reaction to these pink Floyd songs perfectly portrays the feeling and the reason musicians like me create them ❤❤❤❤
Saw this tour at London docklands arena late 80s I'm now 67yrs old where have the years gone i remember this like it was yesterday and feel so privileged to have seen Floyd over the years many times from 1975 to 1994.
Gilmour plays with unmatched precision. The music is exactly the emotion he wants to convey. Pink Floyd are masters of blending lyrics and music to bring us to a higher level.
Stacey, I Truly enjoyed your reaction! I aim 77 now and Pink Floyd has been part of my life since forever. I'm handicapped now but I get "Floyded" daily! David Gilmour is a guitar god, but he also has a great voice. Explore your dive into Floyd. It will bring joy! Take good care!
At 10:35 you heard the lady step it up with her voice. Go back to that concert and listen to "The Great Gig in the Sky" I promise you there will be tears. Those ladies are awesome.
