*ABOUT CHILDHOOD'S END*
Childhood's End, from Pink Floyd's seventh album Obscured By Clouds, has been remixed from the original master tapes in 2016 by Andy Jackson and Damon Iddins.
In February 1972, the band were already playing The Dark Side Of The Moon live and starting to record its songs, but production was briefly halted when they accepted their second commission for filmmaker Barbet Schroeder, to create the soundtrack for his feature film La Vallée.
In the last week of February 1972, Pink Floyd started work, at Strawberry Studios in Herouville, France, and as David Gilmour later described: “We sat in a room, wrote, recorded, like a production line.” The result was 10 pieces of music: six songs and four instrumentals, which Melody Maker described as “some of the most aggressive instrumentals the Floyd have recorded.”
David Gilmour’s Childhood's End was one of the few songs from the soundtrack to be included in Pink Floyd's live shows and was featured on European dates, starting on December 1, 1972, and at the start of the band's March 1973 tour of North America, usually with an extended instrumental passage.

I really think Obscured by Clouds is their most overlooked album. Every single piece of this album is magic.
And the film is a piece of art
yep, nearly as good as the Dark Side. its just not as monumental, but technically so brilliant imo. i love it
You could say it's quite "obscure" ?
meddle is around the same level of underrated but still just as good
It's too bad it was over shadowed by dark side of the moon.
Criminally underrated Floyd song.
its my favorite of PF
Agree, probably one of my fave Floyd songs
one of my favorite album. too bad the whole album was over shadowed by dark side of the moon.
Criminally underrated Floyd album. And of the two albums composed for Schroeder films, I find it to be superior to More.
Criminally underrated album
Most underrated Pink Floyd song ever!
your profile Picture too
Owl Thanks!
not by me
Pure gold
most underrated Floyd album..
one of the deepest songs about existence and growth...truly advanced for their age at the time
Yes and now everything has gone backwards. This as good as it gets
Very true!
Find out about the book it’s based on. It will blow your mind!
And no doubt developed from early sketches of "Time". There are so many similarities:
1. the two songs are structured the same way
2. the keys are very close
3. the bass/rhythm guitar groove is almost the same
4 the lyrics in both travel from childhood and innocence to understanding of human mortality
5 the lyrics in both end by breaking the fourth wall (if the Breathe reprise is omtted)
Far from coincidences if you ask me...
@@louise_rosego check out a live '72 version. They even transposed it to the same key for ease of playing.
Childhood's End (Gilmour) 4:31
You shout in your sleep.
Perhaps the price is just too steep.
Is your conscience at rest
If once put to the test?
You awake with a start
To just the beating of your heart.
Just one man beneath the sky,
Just two ears, just two eyes.
You set sail across the sea
Of long past thoughts and memories.
Childhood's end, your fantasies
Merge with harsh realities.
And then as the sail is hoist,
You find your eyes are growing moist.
All the fears never voiced
Say you have to make your final choice.
Who are you and who am I
To say we know the reason why?
Some are born; some men die
Beneath one infinite sky.
There'll be war, there'll be peace.
But everything one day will cease.
All the iron turned to rust;
All the proud men turned to dust.
And so all things, time will mend.
So this song will end.
Missing you
profound lyrics. they were in their absolute peak from 71-75. i don’t even like the wall.
They were magical together
Last song written by Gilmour alone until a momentary lapse of reason.
I do like the Wall, but I don't like Dark Side of the Moon. Love Obscured by Clouds. Just my opinion...
I can not stop listening to this beautiful Gem of a tune!!
Me neither!
This plays in my head on repeat...... for sure!
Long live Pink Floyd, best band ever!
Yes!
best band ever, after the beatles of course
Nothing comes close to Pink Floyd. Except Zeppelin, these guys were amazing. Pink Floyd can connect with you on so many levels... Emotional, recreational, mentally, spiritually and what not. I remember when I was 16, I smoked a spliff to this very song. Changed my whole view on life completely as during the time I was undergoing a breakup. Pink Floyd has that special something that gets you through anything.
Eduardo Gutiérrez Castillo Nah, before. The Beatles are good but they are overrated.
Pink Floyd >>>Beatles
Amazing drum timing, so subtle... Nick Mason is such a legend
He truly was an absolute machine when it came to timing. His fluid understanding helped create some real alien-like beauty
He was an alien?
Most underrated drummer ever.
Yeah...Can't wait to see him tomorrow in Montreal 😍
Actually -- gonna disagree with you Mason's playing here. First of all, this is an amazing song, and yes, it is one of PF's most overlooked.
HOWEVER -- Mason inadvertently uses a "shuffle" timing on some fills -- where he inserts tom-toms in between the accented set of chords which end the verse, G major, D major, A minor. The song clearly has a "straight 16th note" feel -- listen to the very beginning, where there's the keyboard and very subtle beat (I think it's either a guitar low E, or a bass), that is very obviously a straight row of 16th notes. Also, listen to Dave's rhythm playing during the verse -- also very straight, if slightly syncopated, 16ths.
By applying a "swung" feel in those fills, Mason makes the beat indeterminate -- and this is problem of sub-division You can't insert triplets into a song that has already been subdivided as straight 16ths. You might be able to do it if the subdivision were only 8ths, or quarters, but not when the beat so clearly insists on straight 16ths. The listener's ear isn't sure if this is an attempt to "drag" the rhythm, or compress it. In fact, what's funny, is that in some of those "fills," he actually gets the 16th sub correct -- and it sounds much cleaner, and more rhythmically "alert," or "tense" (which is what you want). Fills should push a song from section-to-section, not distract from its progress.
I realize some people will say, "this is all a matter of feel." Sorry, nope. It's just incorrect.
Okay -- let the flame war begin.
In my mind, this is one of Floyd's greatest songs.
Gilmour's voice is absolute fucking bliss.
Sure is! Gilmour's guitar playing gets a lot of praise, and deservedly so, but his vocals are out of this world.
Pink Floyd has been my favorite band since I was 6. I'm 51 now. Had the pleasure of seeing them live 8 times. This is my favorite floyd song. If you're taste is anything like mine, go listen to Black Mountain Space to Bakersfield and see if you can resist listening to more.
Thank you
I'm 71 now, just am going to say that I agree
44 Years after the release of the song they release the music video, haha, heroes. This is why I love the Floyd
@Hans Carlson it's on their official channel so I'm guessing yes it's approved by them.
great tune
Some original Pink Floyd 35mm film footage went up in the vault fire a few years ago, so they probably decided just to get out to the public what they had to prevent another total loss.
All the iron turned to rust
All the proud men turned to dust
And so all things, time will mend
So this song will end
❤
And they say he can't write! Yeah right!
Obviously Syd was the poet and Roger is genius but dude don't say Gilmour can't write!
This one, Coming Back to Life, Fat Old Sun, Narrow Way Part 3! ❤
I'd love for his output to be more substantial but when you have your wife as your co-lyricist it's pretty easy to see how those arguments are made. The guy was not a lyrical force.
Sean Lange actually, this song came many many years before Gilmour met Polly.
This came on the early 70s and he married Polly on 90s
So the lyrcs were 100 % written by him.
I recommend you to listen the narrow way ( another song written and played 100% by Gilmour) from an album called Ummagumma (1969)
The lyrcs from that song are blowing mind.
Gilmour had all the talent to write amazing lyrcs, just like waters.
But he preferred to give the vibe and sound to the band.
Eduardo Gutiérrez Castillo I'm well aware of when Childhoods End was written, you never saw me say anyone cowrote that song, so you seem confused. The bands history suggests otherwise than what you're saying about Gilmour's lyrical ability. If he was a strong enough lyricist on his own, why would he have his wife co-write his songs as soon as Roger Waters left? This practice continued throughout his solo albums. He never stood on his own as a lyricist and that's not really disputed by anyone who knows Floyd.
Sean Lange The answer is on the first comment.
"he preferred to give the vibe and sound to the band."
Many people wonder: Beatles or Rolling Stones? I say Pink Floyd whole life !!.
I couldn't agree more! Anything before Revolver by Beatles is really quite meh (imo) and Rolling Stones, well Rolling Stones is good, really good, but nothing compare to Pink Floyd!
Pink Floyd is so much more rich than most of these other classic rock bands! While other classic rock bands were busy writing songs mostly about romantic loves, sex, drug, women, Pink Floyd always wrote songs like Matilda Mother, Corporal Clegg, Point Me At The Sky from the beginning! I mean even before making commercially successful albums like DSOTM, WYWH, The Wall.
Well, I would say that with "Meddle" gave a radical change in the sound where David began to express themselves musically hundred percent, however since I discovered them I changed all my listening dynamics in music.
Me too!!
Me too (Pink Floyd that is😊)
you completely forgot Led Zeppelin, and here, there is no competition!
Obscured by the Clouds is the most underrated Floyd album and it is one of my favorites. It is a real band album. There are contributions from everyone and a really great Richard Wright song.
I want this song played at my funeral. It's such an impactful song for me. My dad played pink floyd while I was growing up, he was an abusive person. tried to leave my family multiples times and successfully did in 2019, still picks up my sisters every weekends though. I'd rather not come over. Covert narccisist, it's saddening to me. I'll never have any other dad, you know? All my memories as a 6-7 year old were my dad playing DSOTM in the car, the desert-like surroundings, Oman, we lived there for a year because he had an english teaching job there. Growing up, now I just remember how sad I was, but still even until now I've loved pink floyd and have always listened to them. I don't listen to the wall or dsotm/WYWH anymore even though it's what I'd always come back to. It's what I listened to at 13-15 while I was really in a lot of agony when all my repressed memories of child abuse came back. I really spiraled and saw no way out of it, really wanted to die every day and harmed a lot. Never got any therapy,
but I'm 16 now. I found this song last year, and it's the one song that feels like me the most. The feeling that childhood was really taken from your hands and just having to live with it. The message from Pink Floyd has always been rather existential which is what I really enjoy, but this one resonates with me the most. I've always thought of death, life, humans, I don't know but just philosophical related things. Piecing things together in my own head about how I feel about the world.
It also feels freeing, because it wasn't a song my dad showed me. It's my song, the one song I can call my own in my head.
Lots of love to you ❤❤❤
@@arelcrest5048 thank you, I appreciate that
I send you a great hug. What a story!.
One of the best Pink Floyd songs ever I think. Have it on repeat and even after months, I never get sick of it.
44 years later... still fighting wars that can't be won.... R.I.P Rick n Syd.
Obscured By Clouds is underrated as fuck.
Scumbox id put it at number 5 of my favorite Pink Floyd albums behind the big 4, so good
Loved this album...
Honestly i can't believe that this Album sneaked by me. what an idioit!!!
Or at least underrated. Love it.
Not by me :)
Obscured By Clouds was kind of like underdeveloped DSOTM.. They share the same themes. This song sounds like a precursor for Time..
Definitely is the flipside to Time for me. You are on point. I wonder how these two records would have faired as a double LP.
But I think the lyrics for Time was writen by Roger and the lyrics for this song by Gilmou
Echoes is another precursor
Give Embryo a listen,amazing song.
Lindsay Davis You hit it on the nose. The mood and tone feel like "Time". Great song. Glad to see people appreciating great music. Hope the world puts out another band that's undeniably great like Pink Floyd.
Are you excited?
Are you charged up?
Are you stressed?
Are you sad?
Are you depressed?
Answer: Listen to Pink Floyd
Pink Floyd changed my life for the first time 35 yrs ago, yet I can put the same songs on today, and they still somehow change me. Pink Floyd rules, eternally...
Gilmour had and still does own a great voice.
David Gilmour is a great songwriter. I've become accustomed to Roger Waters' lyrics, however Pink Floyd is always fucking great, been listening to this excellent group since my childhood started. I was born in 1983 but this junior Floydian will SHINE ON.
Me too born in 1983 and listen to these guys since I was 12! Such a great band with so many great albuns that a good album like obscured by clouds is not very known by people.
1999 here.. hands down favorite band and I dont see that changing anytime soon
started listening to floyd after a friend lent me his DSOM album i was 16
The biggest mistake Pink Floyd ever made was having Roger Waters take over vocals. I'm not saying I'm not a fan of, he was great, but Gilmore was so much more than great
Yes, much agreed. But this video validates Gilmore dating Watersvwas an annoyingly little Twitt. I think they were his exact words at one time.
Looks like a peaty type, always looking for some kind of attention.
Then you see how Chill Gilmore is.
Holy crap. Thanks to Jackson and Iddins for helping make this fantastic remaster. Usually I can barely tell the difference between a remaster and the original, but you definitely can here.
Pink Floyd is the best band ever. Their songs are amazing! Lyrics have so much meaning and are just...no words. Music-just Pink Floyd. And the videos... I don't even know what to say... This is real music and this is what people should listen
3:01 A time to remember... Waters and Gilmour, in complete harmony.
The immortal band, immortal music for all ages. Pink Floyd: Thank you for all those lovely years we spent listening to your music; we still do. We love you individually and together.
Best Floyd song ever that most have never heard...
Turning 20 soon, this hit's hard. The lyrics are so simple but tell so much, and of course, the guitar makes my spine feel like glittery goo. Truly a fantastic and very ''Pink Floyd'' track. I'm not even sad I haven't found this before now, cause I believe I wouldn't appreciate it so greatly.
how's it going bro? Its been 6 years
@@anomalous34 very well brother, life is coming together more than ever. You?
@kasperlarsen4060 complete opposite lmao. In my early 20s I went to college, had a best friend, girlfriend for 4 years, sober, full time job, fit etc.
Finished college but burned out. Lost the girl. Lost my friend. Starting doing drugs and drinking. Have a herniated disc and can't workout anymore. Might die in spine surgery. Work a dead end job.
Lmao. Glad you're doing good tho
@@anomalous34 Can I just say, what an incredibly wholesome comment to receive.
I hope and believe things turn around for you brother. Things tend to do so.
Turning 66 soon. The lyrics are even more poignant now after half a century of lifes ups and downs . Same as Free Four, particularly as the intro to Rogers DSOTM redux.
I love this it's one of David's best songs to capture the feel of the times the early 70s
One of my absolute faves of the Floyd, barr none . . . smooth, raw, hint of Floyds impending doom, sense of irony, and sweer vibe & rythm.... W!!
One of my all time Floyd faves.
I'm so glad there's a Pink Floyd official channel on youtube now.
I love your name
@@user-ku8yy6ms3u And I don't understand your name. haha
@@karlosdaniel6537 of course you don't😂😂😂. It's greek
3. 1415926535, you can thank me for that sir.
@@user-ku8yy6ms3u me likely Gyros
absolutely love them releasing official videos of their music, especialy the lesser appreciated ones i love
You set sail across the sea
of long past thoughts and memories.
Childhood's end, your fantasies
merge with harsh realities.
Harsh is quite right. Some cannot handle that kinda shit anymore. NICE WORK> #playdirty
Obscured by clouds is a masterpiece
I’ve ALWAYS LOVED THIS SONG! Definitely best song on this great album, and one of the best Pink Floyd songs period. Definitely on the top 10 list!
Besides being a hauntingly beautiful song with lyrics that are deep and provocative, it also has perhaps my favorite David Gilmour solo. Every note is perfect and it is just SOOO David-Gilmour in style. What you'd call a signature solos.
Floyd, zeppelin, Beatles, stones, and queen cannot be compared,they are all so epic in their own way
Best both studio and live band ever existed
Classic. Fascinating to watch them making their magic in the studio
Well pink flyod deserves to be the top as everyone in the band plays their role incredibly as singer David also plays guitar everyone done wonderful work in the history of modern music ever 👏👏👏👏👏💯💕💕💕
I am quite overwhelmed by this! I discovered the wonders of Pink Floyd about 2 years ago and this goldmine is still full!
Pink Floyd has so many great albums and so many great songs, it’s impossible to choose a favorite. They are the best
If they don't play this song at my funeral, I'm not going.
Uhm how can you not attend Ur own funeral I do t think that's how it works
"Obscured by Clouds" is the most magical albums of Pink Floyd... Everything about this album is magical... every sound, every beat, just everything... Every song in this album is a rare gem... It's just magical...
The guitar! The guitar's lead!!!
a awsome song Long Live Pink Floyd!!!!!!!
This is my favorite song and album!! As many have said before me! This is absolutely way overlooked!!
Kind of surreal to watch this for the first time after having listened to the song for the last 25 years.
The greatest band that's ever been
This whole album is fire
What a song! Obscured by clouds is too much underated.
I love the pink floyd
Pink Floyd, the best band ever
What a great track and loved the new/old video of the band back in those early years. David Gilmour's guitar just jumps out at you. PINK FLOYD is like no other.
This song sort of snuck up on me one day and it's been in my top twenty ever since.
...great guitarists can show you what a guitar can do. with Gilmour, he can show you what he wants with a guitar. he must be greater..!!
I just love Pink Floyd, it's the next level
Absolute sublime in every sense. No band comes close. Floyd!
Ticking away, ,the moments that make up a dull day... Same song...
Obscured by clouds one of my all time favourite Floyd albums
This sounds so good. Probably the best remaster of Floyd material I've ever heard. This would top the charts today.
One of my favourite Pink Floyd songs
Had to put my 4 legged boy to rest a few weeks ago. This was one of the last songs I played as the vet started her process to help him pass peacefully.
Bye Buddy Bye (12-18-2010 ~ 03-12-2023)
When the pain of seeing our friend, family member and companion was more than the decision of saying goodbye, it was time.
When the thought of being selfish, wanting him to stay was more than the compassion of letting him go, it was time.
When we could do no more, it was time. We made our decision with love.
Bye Buddy Bye
Linda, Dennis & His Daughter Zoie
I regret for neglecting this song for very long time. I think this is my new fav of song.
Hey if you like Pink Floyd should look up The Doublejumps, I think you'll like them
I remember being so hi on mushrooms and this song took me thru the stratosphere. 1973 I bought this.
The lyrics are so deep, people fear coming to reality with them.
David Gilmour’s voice has such a rich quality. I love it! 😎
"Who are you and who am I?
To say we know the reason why
Some are born, some men die
Beneath an infinite sky."
My mind is blown. The Pink Floyd Sound.
I love this verse the most 💚
Incrível como as músicas de uma banda continuam sendo boas com o passar dos anos
sim, mt foda
em bandas como Pink Floyd parecem que ficam ainda melhores com o passar do tempo, minha banda do coração sempre.. .
Pena que esse box chegará com um preço absurdo aqui.... isso é, se chegar
pois é cara, 550 deletas lá fora, imagina aqui, vou vender uns órgãos,hahaha..
Paulo Rafael Lamim qual box? Early Years?
Damn this album is really one of the most underrated albums of Pink Floyd!
How can we hear the same song over so many years. So many times. And still feel it. I cant think of other things we do so much. And have the same reaction.
Great composition. I don't understand when a Floyd fan says that this or any other track is underrated; there is no Pink Floyd album or song that is underrated. I love everything they did and of course they are the greatest band of all time.
Anyone who could possibly dislike this song has no clue what music is.

Quem gosta de Pink Floyd sabe , escuta mil vezes daí só quer escutar mais mil e assim por diante .Maravilha , ótimo áudio , Obrigado .
Why do I love this song so much?. I adore it
Masterpiece
AFTER THIS THEY RECORDED "TIME". THIS IS THE INTRO.
Intro sounds like Mud Men.
Ticking away, the momments that make up a dull daaaay..
The guitar solo is better in Time, IMO
It has the same “ticking” sound as in the intro to time.
This was written half a year after time
one of my favourite songs all time
One of my favourites, in the top 5 definitely.
I Love this Masterpice! I Love the füll Album! Obscured by Clouds!! I Like all Pink Floyd Albums! Pink Floyd is one Off the realy great parts in my Live! Best of best! Thanks ❤️❤️❤️❣️
GREAT SOUND QUALITY
Obscured by Clouds is piece of art
Absolutely...
Obscured by clouds my favorite album
As a kid my dad would play obscured by clouds front to back on lp first Pink Floyd my ears ever heard. I remember copying it to a cassette tape and rocking it daily. Opening track is perfect on that album
Thank you! i love obscured by clouds! favorite album and a great song!
Pink Floyds facebook page was asking fans what they wanted to hear just before David Gilmour went on the road with 'Rattle That Lock.' Although the survey obviously had no say in the setlist it was interesting to see this track mentioned a few times - I think I also suggested this one - a genuine Gilmour masterpiece from someone who always claimed he couldn't write a decent song alone.
I wonder if the survey had any bearing on the attention lavished here. A great mix on an excellent track.
I have always said Floyd fans shouldn't talk about 'Obscured...' because it's so good we should keep it to ourselves!!
Friday night what an absolute treat!
This is my favorite song via The Pink Floyd that many, sadly have never heard.
Such wisdom from such young men.
You shout in your sleep.
Perhaps the price is just too steep.
Is your conscience at rest
If once put to the test?
You awake with a start
To just the beating of your heart.
Just one man beneath the sky,
Just two ears, just two eyes.
You set sail across the sea
Of long past thoughts and memories.
Childhood's end, your fantasies
Merge with harsh realities.
And then as the sail is hoist,
You find your eyes are growing moist.
All the fears never voiced
Say you have to make your final choice.
Who are you and who am I
To say we know the reason wh men die
Beneath one infinite sky.
There'll be war, there'll be peace.
But everything one day will cease.
All the iron turned to rust;
All the proud men turned to dust.
And so all things, time will mend.
So this song will end.
This one ☝️ makes me love David Gilmour
This is one of my favorite songs by Pink Floyd
Having been a Pink Floyd fan since 1968, the first thing I noticed was how much the Pink Floyd has refined over the many years. Still my favorite band.
Una de Las Mejores Rolas de Pink Floyd...refleja el sentir adolescente y de protesta en los 70's....Excelente.
*Great Song*
One of my 'All Time Favorite Pink Songs' Growing up in the '60's marked by violent, overwhelming turbulence and tumultuous, passionate upheavals of civil unrest, I, We NEVER IMAGINED living in a era of such reckless abandonment for consequences and frenetic, tempestuous souls marking EARTH. Albeit, I seem to remember my grand-parents saying and feeling the same during the '60s, as I do now that I am rust and near to fading away*-)
Ditto.
One of the best music videos of all time. I bow to all who participated in the making of this brilliant piece of cinema
my good taste in music bring me here
I forgot about this song and then heard it on the Peacock TV mini series "A Friend Of The Family".
Truly awesome song and video! Gilmour's voice hasn't changed a bit.
Today you made history again, this song, that album, is no more to stay "obscured"
