    UPDATE: so the mass consensus is we must do the album version so that is what we will do very soon! Sorry all for getting the name wrong of the original singer. I must have been thinking about Nightwish at that moment but yes, her name was Clare Torry.

      WolfKain, I'm working on a cover of Pink Floyd's "Fearless" as we speak. I'm not done mixing the vocals but I'll link it to you somewhere when it's complete. Nearly there. More of a rock/space vibe than their stripped-down acoustic original.

      That's what I was thinking too. There is something extra to a live version, but even w/ picking 3 different singers to share the vocals (because the song is apparently exhausting to sing, because singing isn't quite what it is, you have to pull these vocals from your core), not one of them could even hold a candle to the original Claire Torrey. Unfortunately, the only live version I found w/ Torrey singing it is vocal only and didn't have video of it.

    The blond backup singer is Sam Brown who had her own music career going on at this time. She was a "Pop" singer in the UK and had a #1 hit single entitled "Stop". She jumped at the chance to work with Pink Floyd for this concert and, I think, she also worked several concerts with them just before this concert series at Earls Court. That is how respected Pink Floyd was back in the day. Artists were willing to put their own careers on hold just for a opportunity to work with these guys.

I love y'all's sensitivity, musical knowledge, and fearless showing of your emotions. Thank you!

    The *original vocalist* from the album was *Clare Torry.* Pink Floyd had the music down but couldn't put lyrics to this song. Then they brought Torry in to do background vocals for this song. Still, *Pink Floyd (Roger Waters & David Gilmour)* still didn't write the lyrics. Torry said let her hear what they had. She listened a few times & decided to record her voice just like an instrument. Torry did 2 takes. On the 3rd take, she told *Alan Parsons (yes, that Alan Parsons from The Alan Parson's Project,* who engineered the Dark Side sessions) during the 3rd take, she can't do it no more. Torry said you got my best. Then Torry left the studio for a party. She found out months later at a record store that Floyd used her vocals (two takes) for this song. Years later, she sued for extra royalties & a song writing credit for the "lyrics".

    Agreeing with so many here that Claire Torrey's original is so much better. In part because it is just a voice crying in the wilderness, like an ancient prophetess. So powerful. Floyd had an amazing talent for capturing the sense of infinite space, the universe arcing about you, the music of the spheres...
    LASERIUM!!! OMG, I went to see those shows at the Griffith Park Planetarium in the late 70's. I miss those shows so much.

    When listening to this I always imagine a person on his/her deathbed going through the five stages of death and dying - denial, anger, bargaining, depression and finally acceptance before he/she heads off to The Great Gig in the Sky. The vocalisation seems to emote these stages as it progresses. Great to see you being introduced to another one of my favourites. Of course, the album version is the definitive version.

    It's very true. The 1970s Pink Floyd albums really need to be listened to as the entire album, one song really flows into another. From "Dark Side of the Moon," to "Wish You Were Here," to "Animals," all 3 albums are highly conceptual, where the individual songs are excellent, but when listened to in the order originally designed by the artists, who did whatever it took, and spared no expense to get exactly what they wanted, taking over a year to record and produce a single album in the 1970s, listening to the album as a whole is a true experience, and the time will fly by.

  • @sjoerdbastiaan

    Wonderful comment from both of you, I feel the same with Pink Floyd. The emotion, brings you to another space, another level. PF is the only band that does that to me. Maybe Shine on you crazy Diamond is the next song? Make sure to tell the (rather sad) story behind it, it makes listening to the song that much more of a complete experience. Keep it going guys!

    The song is a about child birth. In the beginning of the 3rd singer you can hear i never said i was afraid of dying. But its very hard to hear so listen carefully. The whole album is about life. Begins with a heartbeat and ends with a heartbeat. What does our life consist of. Time. Money. Child birth. On the run. War. Us and them. Getting old Brain damage. Epic album. Concept album

    Even though this is great it still fails in comparison to the studio version of Dark Side on the Moon and Clare Tory singing on the album is epic. She does alone what it took three girls on stage to do and much more soulful If you think you were crying before it's nothing compared to the album version . Listen and review it

    One of the greatest songs ever produced. Only way to describe it is life itself from the day your born to the day you your spirt leaves and moves on. Ive seen Pink Floyd twice in concert back in the eighties and I was never disappointed with their performance. The light show itself was amazing. God bless you both..

  • @ermtol2901

    You should definitely do Comfortably Numb from the same concert :) Also, Echoes, either the studio version or the one called 'Final "Echoes"performance with Richard Wright (Pink Floyd)' (surpasses the original in my opinion).
    Finally, I know it maybe difficult due to copyright but try to do an album reaction (like "Wish you were here"), that's how Pink Floyd are meant to be heard, the songs in each album are connected and feel like a journey.

    There is a great clip on the Classic Album series "The Making of The Dark Side of the Moon" DVD where Richard Wright (R.I.P.) says that Clare Torry came out the vocal booth in tears saying she was sorry that she did so badly(she thought she flubbed it anyway) and the band members quite assured her that what she pulled off was brilliant. Nice story. Also incredible track by track breakdown, not just each song, but the layers involved musically and vocally that made each track. By the original producer himself, the man Alan Parsons not his "Project".LOL.Cheers from the canadian Queen nut. Great reaction btw.
