I'm case y'all missed it the teacher was reading his own of the song Money which is another great song from pink floyd. Great reaction. Brainwashing the masses
Definitely thats their best song by far imo
Poems, everybody!!
@@dannyworten5876 then you have a whole new world of Floyd waiting for you. This song would only just scrape into my top 30 of Floyd songs.
Yes, you're right, a pure song and poem... What about a frustrating teacher!
Absolutely love Dark Side of the Moon
This song is just one aspect of how he built a wall around himself to separate from society and the education system was "Just another Brick in the Wall". Also this video is actually the scenes from the Movie. (also YES we used to get paddled in school it was pretty common) P.S. Mother that you reacted to a couple weeks ago, well an overbearing Mother was another of the bricks in the wall.
Have a Blessed Day!
@@michaelasay8587 great comment bro, really added to the discussion
'The Wall' by Pink Floyd was such a huge success in 1979 that a movie was made for it - this 'music video' was from the movie. These scenes were from the mind of the character 'Pink' in the movie, where he's recalling his school days... There r animated scenes in the movie, as well as the live action scenes. 'The Wall' movie is a real crazy movie visually... it depicts the deterioration of a pop star named 'Pink' as he descends into madness...
The full song starts w/ an ominous 'Another brick in the wall Pt. 1' track, then goes to 'Happiest days of our lives' and then 'Another brick in the wall Pt. 2' w/ the children's choir singing. Later on the record, there is 'Another brick in the wall Pt. 3'. Each track represents a part of bassist/vocalist Roger Water's early life... growing up without a father, who was killed in the war... starting school and encountering abuse & hostility from teachers... his increasing resentment... and then later, his adult anguish and anger.
I’m just here to announce the fact that PINK FLOYD IS THEE GREATEST BAND EVER !!! And to explain the basis of the song is conformity. No thinking outside of the norm or you’ll be punished or embarrassed. Also you really have to watch the full movie THE WALL to understand the entire album. It’s a must or you’ll be punished. 😉🤣
Don't let the video distract you. I suggest listen to studio version. Then you can really appreciate Gilmour's solo. Floyd is the best.
Please listen to the studio version, or live, the solo is one of the best every created on gods green earth and this music video does not do it justice.
And maybe you wouldn't be tempted to pause so much ...
Everything Pink Floyd did was deep, and part of the reason is that they were being honest instead of trying to be deep. Even their mostly instrumental songs like "One of These Days" or "Careful with that Axe, Eugene" have a ton of depth. The music is not super complicated (some of it is, to be sure), but it is always elegant--it does exactly what it should: touch many people where they are without making them become what the musicians are. I hope that makes sense. I don't think the band as a whole was out to change the world (maybe Roger Waters himself was), but they were observing the things in the world so many know are true but either don't know how to say it, or are too afraid to be obvious. Pink Floyd points out the obvious that so many people won't acknowledge. It's part of the band's brilliance! Love that you were taken off guard in a good way, and I hope you keep going down the PF rabbit hole!
Pink Floyd album The Wall is a rock opera from start to finish. You MUST listen to it in its entirety.
The "poem" is actually an extract of the lyrics for the song Money from The dark side of the moon album.
Poems, everybody!!
The album The Wall and the movie are must watch and listen to get the scope. True art.
I say that to all the reactions on this song!!!! Agree totally!!!!
The picture at the end is "Pink" and his wife. He is calling home while touring in the U.S., but after her boyfriend picked up a couple times, they stopped answering. Not that it's not her fault, but his disillusionment with life (The Wall) pushed her away.
The poem is actually lyrics from Money off their Dark Side of the Moon album.
The craziest stuff in this video is all a daydream, particularly after he got his hand slapped in class.
People often think the kids are bricks in the wall; but in context here, educational meat grinding/governmental abuse/control are bricks in "Pinks" wall of isolation.
Needless to say, there is a lot to unpack with this video.
Roger Waters really made ya think on this one. 🤔 The video can be distracting to actually hearing the brilliant music behind it. However, I really wanted you to see the video.
Waters explained in 2009, "The song is meant to be satirical." He explained: "You couldn't find anybody in the world more pro-education than me. But the education I went through in boys' grammar school in the '50s was very controlling and demanded rebellion. The teachers were weak and therefore easy targets. The song is meant to be a rebellion against errant government, against people who have power over you, who are wrong. Then it absolutely demanded that you rebel against that."
Look on CZcams at Elders react to Pink Floyd
Kick back and listen to the song!
Yes, it was quite common for teachers and parents to hit their kids before the 1970's. Read Tom Sawyer & Huckleberry Finn. They get "switched" for bad behavior. A switch is a long thin stick. Teachers would also slap you across the top of the knuckles with a ruler to get you to pay attention in class. "Corporal Punishment" was abolished in Toronto, Ontario, Canada schools in 1971.
Pink Floyd are a British band. Plenty of corporal punishment going on in British schools throughout the seventies. Teachers in Scotland would happily belt children with specially made leather belts about 40mm/inch and a half wide and 10mm/half inch thick.
Actually before the 80s it was like that
We would get the cane in the mid 70s some teachers would even drag you across the floor by your hair, was pretty brutal!
@@sarahpagett9191 And during the 80's. Lol. Not sure if it will ever go away. Most of it never gets reported i would imagine.
I was hit at school by all my teachers. We had wooden blackboard rubbers thrown at us, bits of chalk flicked at our heads and whacks on the hand with rulers. Our English teacher would punish us by putting a chalk mark high on a wall and making us stretch to touch it. Every time our hands started slipping down the wall, she would hit us with a wooden yard rule. Our maths teacher, if he caught us talking in class, would drag us to the front of the class by our hair and then smash our heads together. The head teacher would give us the cane too. Then, if I got home and my dad saw a mark from the cane, he would order me to get his large leather strop/belt, and he would thrash me with it. Such fun days.
Sorry for you.
I’m almost 70. When I was a kid, some teachers had wooden paddles hanging on the wall for easy access.
The Wall is an amazing album. I went to school in the 1970s and they used the belt and the cane on kids. I never got it but some boys in my class did and parents went crazy angry. When my sons went to school in the 1990s - 2000s it had all stopped. We stopped it!
You all have to watch the Pink Floyd movie, "The Wall". A head trip indeed.
Yes paddling was in schools and homes. We all knew that if we misbehaved we’d get a paddling. There were no knives or gun brought to school either. No school shootings. You were paddled in front of the class to set an example. It was not abuse. It was discipline! You had that fear of a paddling instilled in you. Therefore you behaved. It can still be done in schools today but isn’t implemented for fear of being sued.
@Bronze Wolf LOL bullshit! I lived thru the 80's and went to a Catholic school that was allowed to hit at the time. Coming to school with a gun was unthinkable!
Yes kids used to get whipped like that in school. It was called Corporal Punishment. Some parents tried to sue to stop it in 1977 but the U.S. Supreme Court said it was lawful and left it up to each state to decide. Currently, there are still some states that allow it.
One the most dark twisted Legendary Bands of ALL TIME ! If you haven’t heard Dark side of Moon . Man Homie that’s a HELL of a Ride !
You were so focused on the video you missed David's amazing solo. LIsten to just the music version.
I got my ass beat more than once in school, our principle had a paddle full of holes. He called it the board of education.
This song is a rebellion against social engineering using education to (sometimes violently) control and indoctrinate the masses using forced thought control. Teachers and school administrators were seen as representatives of the government. It cries out for respecting individuality, creativity, the uniqueness of each learner. Here in South Africa some of us used this song as one of our freedom songs during the 1980s school boycotts. It was banned in SA from radio play at that time
At least in the UK teachers used to call boys by their surnames and girls by their first names, very military-like. The boys used to get a ruler to the knuckles, spanked with a shoe or similar for talking in class or misbehaving. Not only that a teacher would outright embarass people in front of the class. That was only in my parents generation, and they were born in the late 60s so were going to school until the early 80s.
I can recall in high school a teacher punching a student (likely justified as some of us could be regular, and not so little barbarians) the kid gave the teacher an icy stare in the eyes and said" if you can't punch any harder than that DON'T DO IT AGAIN !" to my recollection the teacher never punched anyone again.
Not possible to enjoy this masterpiece stopping it continuously
It's about kids going into school and being mould into whatever the teachers wanted them to be......ready to become part of the big machine.
*Korn* did a hell of a tribute to this song live and it sounded amazing!!! (In 2012)
Another brick in the Wall, a song released in 1979, conveys to the public a transformative conception of the educational system which, in their view, instead of motivating children in the process of training, oppresses them with its alienating and anti-democratic.
it has to be located at a time when teaching, at least in Europe, was very austere and rigid, it is clearly a criticism of the education provided at the time. Post-war era
The poem the teacher reads contains some of the lyrics to the Pink Floyd song Money from the album The Dark Side of the Moon (1973).
Man you can’t stop the music every 30 seconds!
He has to mumble "ya know um sayin" every 30 seconds.
The poem is part of the lyrics from pink floyd 'money'
If you do "Money" from the album The Dark Side of the Moon you'll see where the "poem" comes from 😉
In school, I was once given the choice of the paddle, or a writing assignment. I took the paddle.
At my school, in the 80s, we were hit across the hand multiple times with a 2 inch thick piece of hard rubber, called the strap. I much preferred it than getting lines or detention, as it would only hurt for about 5 minutes and then it was done with. Also, the first hit would be excruciating but subsequent hits weren't as bad as your hand would go numb with the pain. It wasn't much fun in Winter though as it would hurt a whole lot more. They would hand out the strap for minor things like talking in class, having your socks down, etc but it did its job in instilling discipline. The video is a commentary on the standard of the education system in England in the 70s.
Looking back it was insane - we got the cane - or on the hand would be a ruler, and at 5-8 we got 'The slipper' which was 10 whacks across the bum with a plimsol in front of the class
When I was child at school there was corpral punishment - At infant and junior school ages 5-8 you would get 'The Slipper' which was a smack across the bottom with a plimsol - normally in front of the whole class and Secondary School from 11 onwards you would get the 'cane' and across the bum or a ruler smacked on the palm of your hand 10 times for each one
Back in the day, we called the belt the "strap". Either on the ass or the palms of the hands.
THE HARSH VICTORIAN ERA..THE 50'S,60'S,70'S& PART OF THE 80'S HARDEST YEARS IN EDUCATION BY FAR ..JUST BRUTAL...WE REBELLED GREATLY AGAINST THE SYSTEM.
You guys should’ve done the Part 1 version (its the best), there are 3 parts to ABITW
Now I've said his before ..listen to the full LP and watch the movie each three times at least...it will start to come together.
I think the Pink Floyd members also benefited from this "education". The English school system was very strict in the old days.
When I was at school we got whippings with belts and paddles, but mostly with canes. That thing burned like crazy.
Clip from the movie 'The Wall' which is a Hollywood adaptation of one of the greatest rock albums of all time "The Wall". Also one of the biggest selling albums of all time.Not crazy, just Floyd's commentary on the British school system of the 40s and 50s..
Right in to the late 70’s. I remember when it corporal punishment stopped.
The education system, hammering down and grinding kids up to be molded
You gotta listen to it without watching the video :) Gilmour's solo is drowned out by the kids wrecking the school :)
In the movie, Pink is played by Bob Geldof, later Sir Bob for his work with Live Aid 1985 & Live 8 2005. For the latter, he persuaded Floyd to get back together with Roger Waters. This track from the album was a no1 hit single for PF in 1979.
This video is from The Wall a movie that's very different like a rock opera type thing. Worth seeing at least once in your life
If you get Pink Floyd's movie Another Brick In The Wall the album is a story, and all the videos put together is the movie
Was awarded one of the best videos and songs. I triped on this song
They did have corporal punishment in schools back then in the U.K especially in the Catholic schools. This existed in the U.S. schools as well public and private. The teachers acted as parentis in absentia(In Loco Parentis in Latin) meaning in absence of your parents the teachers can act as temporary substitutes during school hours..This went on for years even in the U.S. and it was very common for teachers to spank students with a paddle or spank their hands with a ruler.In Catholic schools this very common and was justified by the belief that the child had the Devil in them and it had to be beaten out of them hence the saying "Spare the rod, spoil the child".
even when i was in school in 2000s, i never saw it actually happen, but i remember the school could do corporal punishment if the parents signed some papers allowing it. very conservative independent school discrict north of houston texas. we also had prayers on the PA announcements every morning untill it finally became the “moment of silence”. and boys couldnt have earings, facial hair or hair past the collar.
The good thing's about band's that we're ahead of their time is they can be valued in all times.
This video is like a small snapshot of school life in 1970's & 80"s UK... great reaction guys thanks!
The video is just visual symbolism which reflects the lyrical symbolism.
Back in the 50s 60s the teachers could get away with blue murder. It was a cane that was used mostly in UK.
If you heard some of the comments of these twins in England...Their mom divorcing the father for sexually abusing them, while the Court system gave them to the father. With no rights to the Mom. It is quite a story of them meeting below the school on Wednesday to abuse the kids, the teachers , police , judges, everyone. CRAZY
When I was about 10 I had a male teacher pick on me in class for his own immature reasons until the day that my mother came to school and embarrassed him in the next room, at the top of her lungs, for all of the rest of the class to hear.
He left me alone after that.
I have a bad ass mom.
Also, great reactions guys. #subscribed
I'm 67 years old, I remember in grammar School the principal breaking the ruler over my knuckles. If you went home and told your mother and father then your father will give you a whack
The video is a clip from their movie The Wall, based on their album of the same name.
I think the meaning of this song is that education prepares children to become adults who will become mindless robots making just enough money to exist while making the rich get richer. The masses are "just another brick in the wall" and the wall is the empire of the rich.
In Québec they used to call it "la strappe". My father told me that in his days, in catholic school, getting it on the ass was the first step. If you didn't behave, it was on your palm.. and if you really didn't behave, they would put a fine thread on your palm before doing it, so that it would draw blood....
Back when this video was made, teachers were still aloud to hit kids for discipline (even at a young age). The British class system was still being felt. We were all conditioned to look forward to working in factory's, and not question any authority. When they catch you young, you can't help but feel oppressed into the life the system insists upon. I remember getting the cane from infant school, so when I see this video of the kids smashing the school up, it makes me feel a sense of justice and retribution. When the kids shout out "Hey teacher, leave them kids alone" it makes me wish we had the courage to shout this out at age 7 and upward until about 15, 16 were we were to big for adult teachers to try anything like they used to. I think it was in the late 1980s when teachers were no longer aloud to hit school kids. A sad time really.
Pink floyd's musicvideos are so good
Pink Floyd influenced so many progressive bands
Yes, we used to get paddled and belts.
This is one of the Movies they would show at Midnight on Saturdays ,like "The Rocky Horror Picture Show" People would sing along .Im in My 50's so songs like this bring back so many memories.
I'm 60. In grade nine I was sent to the principal's office and given 'The Strap' (like a leather belt) across my hands while broadcasted to all the classrooms over the public address system. Reason? Because I didn't pass in my homework on time.
Should do LET THERE BE ROCK LIVE AT THE RIVER PLATE AC/DC
The Greatest band ever
The "teacher" was also in a later video for a track off of The Final Cut, The Fletcher Memorial Home. Or at least the same actor, Alex McAvoy.
The hammer shadow in the meat grinder scene, see Gerald Scarfe's animated scenes in the original video.
This song had been outlawed in South Africa when it first came out...
Eh?
brother...paddles...belts ....hands....kicked in the ass
Notice the teachers dirty smile at the end of dinner...the belt was took to his wife...not a kid
And this video is from the movie "The Wall"... You should check it out...it's fuckin trippy
A group called "pink Floyd project" covered this song, did a great job of it.
It's all about mind control. Teachers are not supposed to be teaching you what to think, but HOW to think. It's worse now then it was back in the day though. Great song. Pink is one of the greats!
Y’all be listening to them bangers i fk with yall subbed 🤙
With several Pink Floyd albums you have to listen to the entire album to make sense of it. This is one of them. Other Pink Floyd albums that are like this for example is 'Animals' and 'Wish you were here', but there are more.
It's still a cool jam like ever since I was 6.
As others have already said, in order to better understand the PF album "The Wall" you must listen/watch all the songs in the order they appear on the album. The songs build on each other and give meaning in their sequence. The whole thing tells a story. But you have been listening to the songs out of order and that is why the thing hasn't "jigsawed" itself together. Also, read the lyrics of the song. They also explain some of what is happening. Cheers.
You need to watch the live version of comfortably numb.epic song
my sister-in-law once set her school on fire. didn't manage to burn it down, though. back then, there were teachers who seemed to get off on hurting the kids. i was a teen, when this came out. it certainly rang true, for me
Yall need to watch the movie "The Wall" that is depicted in this video. Its a movie above movies
Guys u have to watch the movie or do the album start to finish to understand you woulnt pick up a book and start reading half way through the movie helps with a visual side to it the album for me is much deeper as u are more focused on the lyrics and music lovin u guys 🏴👌🫂🌍
First of all, I really love your couple... I'm a teacher in. France and I tried to give my best with humor and work to my pupils... Now, it's possible anymore because some mothers and their child made calomnies on me because I didn't accept their orders.... Everything is different now, I 'm so worried about that because I never could defend myself as I was a good teatcher... I follow you, I like watching you, but I think people should think about teatchers now and the way they work now.... I' m French but it's the same everywhere now... Soon they're won't be no more teatchers who love their work, only people who don't care... Things have changed... People will just have to stay home to make teatcher's work, very hard, believe me... Now, I just want to change my job as I used to really love my teacher's job... It's the same in every country and school will disappear, believe me... I want to find another job even if I loved teaching... I'm choosing myself and stop being a victim of some parents and their children. But what I 'm sure, is that every parents in the world will regret to treat teatchers like they do today. In the Wall, from Pink Floyd, my favorite band, It' s too much, really... But things have changed, in the other way.... To me, it's just the end of instruction, especially in France, where I come from...
Elders react to Pink Floyd on CZcams
Used to get 'six of the best' with a cane right across the tip's of my fingers. No nonsense in those days.
don’t get stoned and jamm to some pink floyd man!! you feel everything lmao
You need to watch the movie. I saw it live in 1979/80... awesome.
Tended to be the cane in England, belt across the palm of the hand in Scotland - a stiff heavy belt of leather around a 1/4 inch thich and a couple of inches wide! At my schools there were teachers who weren't allowed to use the belt because they were so vicious - even then, forget about using your hand to hold a pen for most of the rest of the day!
i think they were banned some decades ago, though, but were still used at the time of the film.
I was in the senior school when this was released and we was made to go into the main hall and was told we better not replicate the message that this song was telling. The abuse that was going off in the British school system was rife from teachers beating kids including myself, I once watched a teacher hang a student with his scarf just because it was the wrong colour. Once I smiled in class the teacher saw me smile so I got rulered, which was a ruler across the knuckle until broke over your hand. It was sure a crazy time of life for me and many many others.
I wish it was just a paddle that was used in all schools. We had the cane which could be anything ranging from a large broom handle type stick to a thin whipping like stick. They wouldn't hold back with it either, it was hit as hard as possible, to the point where you would bleed even after one 'stroke' on occasion, after 6 strokes it was hard to sit down for a week. There came a point where you'd get hardened to it. Now I am dad I never understand how my parents let that happen to me, 47 times in one term, it was barbaric.
Yep, kids use to get whoopins with a paddle. I was one of them lol. We called them swats. Other areas call them licks. My coach gave my the worst ones. Man that guy could swing. But the principle gave me a few too. He had four holes in his (extra sting). Later on the principle had to get permission from my parents. My mother gave me a choice. "Swats now? Or later when your dad gets home?"
I always chose the teacher and principle lol.
And guess what? I deserved them. Guess what else? I lived through it. Guess what else? I turned out to be a pretty good kid that didnt take vodka to school in my boot or smart off to the teachers. Went to college. Got a degree. And the coach? We ended up talking alot about my future. I ended up looking up to the guy. He helped me by getting my attention. Some kids need "attention" more than others.
Of course I know its just horrible now to even think that kids were exposed to such "trauma". And arent kids so much more respectful to their teachers now, right?
yeahhh..
I got whacked with a wooden paddle with holes in it in 1984 for standing next to a girl I wasn’t allowed to hang out with. I was 11. He said, “Bend over and grab your ankles”. This was in the US. Toledo, Ohio. Shit was real
Yep....we got caned, strapped and belted back in the day. Got caned so bad one time the teacher left a gaping wound in the back of my legs. Worst part is my parents thought I must have deserved it. 😒
If you have any interest in psychology watch the movie. The main character lost his dad in ww2. Being raised by a single mom, in a time that was rare. The movie is steeped in symbolism. The Wall.
Need to listen from beginning to end and watch the movie The Wall to really understand how amazing this album was.
Fun fact, the "poem" is a line from the song "Money". Greets from Germany! One thing thou, NEVER stop during a solo, please.
The Wall is such a good movie
my parents have many stories of nuns and priests and lay people beating kids in catholic school in NYC, queens and brooklyn growing up!!
You GOT to see the all movie to understand, the full experience
...it's saying fuck a system that crushes people into conformity; one theme, one brick, one aspect of the story being told.
This was my graduation song in 2010
