- Hudba
'Strangers passing in the street, by chance two separate glances meet, and I am you and what I see is me' - some of the most profound lyrics that you will hear from any Pink Floyd song which demonstrates the theme of empathy within their great body of work over the decades.
Empathy.
Empathy.
'Echoes' was my gateway to Pink Floyd. In the midst of depression and teen angst, a psychologist played this to get me to meditate. He didn't tell me why at the time, but that is what happened.
Forty years later I still listen to it to center myself. Thank you Dr. Thorn, wherever you are, for giving me a companion for life.
Great reaction! Keep exploring!
Now that's a really insightful psychologist! 🙂

Love your free stylin convo, always a pleasure litening to Pink Floyd with you sir.
Meddle was my first experience of PF back in the early 70’s. It’s still my favourite although all albums are truly great.
You might wish to watch David Gilmour’s (with the inimitable Richard Wright) live version of Echoes. The two choices would be live at Royal Albert Hall and live at Gdańsk. While the latter is usually accorded by fans as being (slightly) better musically (plus the crowd is vaster), personally I prefer Royal Albert Hall because of the lighting and tenderness with which it’s treated, and that isn’t even yet mentioning the glorious back-and-forth between Gilmour and Wright that was captured exquisitely.
Of course, NOTHING compares to Echoes at Live in Pompeii as that is . . . well, it’s a spiritual experience on unearthly levels.
I think you KNOW what you need to do, young man.
You know your PF man! well done for doing the whole Album, its my fav Floyd release and on the back of this saw them live in London 1972
'A Pillow of Wind'- A song about night coming, going to bed and then waking up in the morning. So simple.
Fearless has always been my number 1, along with this whole Album. It is underrated due to its more mellow vibe. But the guitar work and bass lines of Fearless, not to mention the message in the lyrics, is all just a masterpiece!
Also, I believe San Tropez is where they took Syd to try to help some kind of recovery. Unfortunately, it didn't work out they way they hoped.
I feel like the middle section of Echoes is like descending into Hell.
When they emerge from there (with the dry, delay guitar triplets), it’s as if they have become the fully formed Pink Floyd.
To me it feels like the bottom of the ocean... the whales singing somewhere far, the dulled sounds... then finally the ping of the sonar of a search ship finds this treasure of a band
My absolute favourite Pink Floyd album. Glad you enjoyed it :) It certainly is a lazy Sunday record
I saw Roger Waters back in 2017, here in Argentina.
An amazing, unique show, a whole experience.
So great to see you react to this. Age 13 this was my intro to Pink Floyd - playing my older bothers "don't you dare touch vinyl" 😂😂😂
Fearless with the Liverpool Football (soccer) club supporters (the kop)
Seamus, with "lead vocals" all pointing to future use of real world sounds to add context to the Floyd soundscape.
Seamus was recorded live!
Even the album cover (opened flat its a human ear underwater) was a masterpiece 😊
And just when you thought the album was cool, you'd flip it over and wow!
Love. For. Music. Pink Floyd loved music more than music could ever love Pink Floyd.
Try pink floyd live at pompeii full concert
yeah, the best video of pink floyd
I know it's enough of Echoes on your channel, but the last live performance of Richard Wright worth to see. (Gdansk, 2006)
It's not only little different from studio but also quite emotional knowing that it was last colabaration of Gilmour and Wright and sounds fantastic
Gilmore Can't perform Echoes with anyone but Wright. It's like a private musical conversation between the 2 that no other keyboard player understands.
I saw Brit Floyd cover Echoes. It was intermission and the lights turned off. It seemed like at least a minute of dead silence, then we heard a ping. The audience went crazy.
I saw an interview of one of their backup singers. Even though she doesn't get to sing, it was her favorite song for them to cover. Each performance was a little different.
@@innit8376 I've seen them 6 times. Always a fun time.
@@innit8376 I try to support them each tour. It's a lot of fun, and they put so much into creating a Pulse like show. going all in is really the only way to cover Pink Floyd. I'd hate to see them stop...
Saw them when they were in my town and their performance of Great Gig in the Sky was unreal
David Gilmour felt Roger Waters was moving away from their musical sound and leaning towards a more lyrically complaint heavy style. When David took over as leader, he wanted more uplifting music. The only mistake he made was listening to advice that Pink Floyd should sound “modern” aka the late 80’s sound. He has reissued 1987’s Momentary Lapse of Reason in 2019 remixed with a more timeless sound (aka real drums not synth drums for example). However, there are a lot of people that like what David did so don’t assume it’s bad. If you want a taste try Learning To Fly.
I love the 2019 Remix of Momentary Lapse of Reason. Sounds so much better than the original. (Btw it wasn't actually synth drums but actually gated reverbed drums, back in the 80s literally every other artist from Phil Collins (He invented gated reverb drums) Genesis, Michael Jackson, Prince, to Duran Duran were using Gated reverb drums.) fortunately in the 90s it became so out of fashion that it was almost never used again. This video is very informative about gated reverb.
czcams.com/video/Bxz6jShW-3E/video.html
Side effect, it makes the music sound cheesy. And now it sounds really dated. Also gated reverb has no place on a Pink Floyd record.
Great reaction! The older stuff, Piper at the Gates...and Saucerful of Secrets, Ummagumma, etc. is very eclectic, experimental sounding. The crowd singing at the end of Fearless is the crowd at a soccer (football) game in England singing “You’ll Never Walk Alone.”
FYI - The term soccer was used in Britain commonly until the 1980s. So when this was recorded in 1971 (by a British band in Britain), "soccer" would be the appropriate term.

Cheers!
fuck off, I could NOT make out a word he said!!!
Specifically Liverpool FC at Anfield.
Over the last few months you’ve discovered the Pink Floyd journey, now you’ve got the rest of your life to enjoy it. Spread the music to your mates. Cheers from Australia.
Also, this is when they really jelled. Meddle and Animals are my favorite PF albums. "Fearless", apart from "Echoes", is the best song on the album.
LETS GO I REQUESTED THIS
I´m 16, and i am not here to say that "wrong generation" crap, am here to note that this group is timeless. This is my favorite PF album btw
If you want to have the experience how Echoes comes live I recommand you to watch and listen to Echoes live in Gdanks by David Gilmour. It is one of the last performances of the song. And when you see and hear how Gilmour and Wright are communicating through their instruments - well, I always have tears in my eyes as it is so beautiful.
Dr Strange (2016 Marvel movie) has a song from Piper at The Gates of Dawn. Pink Floyd and Dr Strange have long connection. Benedict Cumberbatch sang Comfortably Numb with David Gilmour on stage. There is a CZcams video of it.
Saw them in 1973 in Montreal Canada. The Dark side of the moon tour -it was awwwsome..started the show with Echoes...its a wow,
Don't miss Atom Heart Mother. The long piece, "Atom Heart Mother Suite" on side one is amazing - a mirror to Echoes in a way. The band never played it live and somewhat disdained it, but it was amazing!
They played it live ad nauseum.
@@patrickrasmussen2666 I stand corrected on that - but I think it was only for a short time as I understand the band members didn't really like the piece that much.
The trumpets for some reason make me sad on that song🥲
Roger Waters on Atom Heart Mother: "I wish it (the Album version) was put into the dustbin and never listened to by anyone, ever again..." They performed this piece live over 70 times from Feb.1970 to 1971. The earlier live versions (The Amazing Pudding) are sooo much better than the Ron Geesin orchestrated Album version.
Echoes is my favorite Pink Floyd song.
I know it feels like you are running out of Pink Floyd and it's true you've done most of the peak stuff. But all of the post-Waters PF stuff is still worth listening to as is Waters's solo stuff. Besides that, if you find the right ship on the high seas you can find dozens upon dozens of live bootlegs, many of which have *great* versions of their best songs. It's a fun trip.
Hi dude, you should check on Tubular bells, it's a really trippy song, definetly should take a look
ahhhh yes I listened to tubular bells today for the first time in years. magical album
So funny, I just watched you listen to “Dark Side Of The Moon”, and suggested you listen to Meddle. Meddle isn’t as well known, but as good as all other PF. You should check out “Ten Years After - StoneHenge”.
24:04 the roll of the drums sounds like waves crashing on the shore
"one of these days I'm going to cut you into tiny pieces" refers to a BBC Radio DJ who used to talk waaaaay too much. The guys discussed cutting up audio tape of him into jibberish (which I think they thought would make more sense)
In the end they just used the line spoken by Nick Mason and made it sound really ominous - typical Floyd 😂
Never knew what the reference was. Thanks!
I always pictured someone in an apartment (or flat) playing music loud and the distinctive drum pounding before the aforementioned line was the neighbor banging on the door or wall and explaining what they where going to eventually do to rectify the situation. LOL
Great reaction/review really enjoyed it. I have loved Pink Floyd for 40 years but until recently had slept on Meddle and Animals, I guess because I never heard songs from them on the radio. Lesson learned.
This a great album. My personal favourite is "Fearless". At the end of Fearless you can hear 50.000 Liverpool FC fans singing "You'll Never Walk Alone".
Yeah I would look on YT for the Liverpool fans shouting in the stadium to get a sense of what they're chanting
You have a good heart man. You go out of your way for your subs my brush.
I am personally very impressed with this young man.
Mohammad Ali once said: “A man who views the world the same at 50 as he did at 20 has wasted 30 years of his life.”
He is definitely getting a jump on life before it gets the jump on him.
subs my brush ????
Thank you again for sharing these videos. Always warms my heart to know that my favorite band is almost more relevant now with young people than they were at the height of their career. I really do love hearing your take on these classic songs. You are a wise and deep thinking young man and makes me believe that the future of the world is in good hands with men like you out there.
I would ask you to watch/listen and comment on Careful With That Axe, Eugene - the version from Live At Pompeii: czcams.com/video/7Ue6EfcLZek/video.html . As a matter of fact, I would recommend you watch all the performances within the movie - if not the whole movie itself - to actually see the four of them at the height of their collaboration, with all their 'voices' working in sync together. I think you will especially love the 'live' version of Echoes, since you enjoyed the studio version so much. I will prepare you: the movie is filmed in the ruined Amphitheatre of Pompeii, which was destroyed by an eruption of Mt. Vesuvius in 79AD, so it seems as though they are playing only for the dead souls. It's so damn cool once you realize it's not your typical 'concert film'. But then again, they were not your typical kind of band. The movie was filmed right before they started recording Dark Side Of The Moon, and even the director went back and filmed this video (Careful) and later some snippets of them recording songs for Dark Side. I think you will really like seeing these, since you like the fact their studio recordings sound almost like live versions. Here is the wiki page for the movie, tell me you don't think this is one of the most cool concepts: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pink_Floyd:_Live_at_Pompeii
Thank you again, and I will continue to enjoy your shared thoughts on your Pink Floyd experiences. As always, my strongest request is to please don't edit the songs. We all want to see you react to every note - as was intended.
Shine on!
pink Floyd are unique because they don't fit in any one genre ., and this epic proves it.,and why they are unmatched on that level. The early creative genius in this was to herald later epic album masterpieces.ie DSOTM i n 73. Echoes too me is a musical conversation that guitar DG is having with the keys and Rick Wright. Try the Live at gdansk version of this witch is the last time this track was performed Live before Rick passed away, so sad yet epic! Plenty more Floyd work for you too explore. Try Obscured by Clouds! Love your journey!
Listen to The division bell! Relly good album.
I always felt that Meddle was just two outstanding songs (One of these days and Echoes) bookending filler tracks. I’ve grown to appreciate the album more as I get older, especially the track ‘Fearless’, but i can’t help feeling that if they put some more time into creating an album of songs on par with the first and last one, it would have been their first true masterpiece. A missed opportunity really.
Definitely check out Obscured by Clouds. It's my favorite Floyd album listen to on a regular basis.
With roger or post water, its still Pink floyd bro, try doing MOMENTARY LAPSE OF REASON remastered, and DIVISION BELL, nice reaction man
He said" noone flies around the sun"... Yet we all revolve around the sun.
Between when Syd Barret (The Lead writer) was playfully singing about some guy swiping panties off clothes lines, strung together with long interludes of psychedelic music that kept the stoned crowd enthralled until he schized-out and Roger Waters took over writing the lyrics which took on a darker more reflective tone. Their melodic/metronomic/hypnotic music lulls you into a state of deep relaxation wherein Roger steps in and whispers MADNESS into Your Ear.
Fearless may be the most gentle song ever made
I’ve watched tons of people reacting to Floyd and need to admit your the only one that doesn’t stop start stop start your way through some great tracks
So big thumbs up for me and anyone that dislikes this video definitely isn’t a floyd fan.
I remember saving my money up and buying the Album in 1972 ‘yes I know it came out in 71 in case folk try to correct me’
From Pink Floyd,
you should listen to "The Division Bell" 1994. Personally that is the best post Roger Waters album, and my 3rd favorite Pink Floyd Album
for early pink Floyd, Piper at the Gates of dawn. And Saucerful of Secrets both have Syd Barret in it and Saucerful of Secrets is the ONLY album to have all 5 members at once. David Gilmour was not in Piper.
Great reaction!! you have a typo on the hashtag.
Piper at the Gates of Dawn is my favorite!!
You will see how Syd Barrett inspired their sound.
At 4:27 that phrasing aways sounded like the Dr. Who theme song
Listen to George Harrison - All things must pass album
Try atom heart mother
i fucking love this video
Thanks 🙏🏾 for checking it out and commenting appreciate it and I peep your pfp R.I.P. to one of the greatest MF DOOM
Try The piper at the gates of dawn (stereo version)
First Pink Floyd's album
JIMI HENDRIX- HEY JOE LIVE AT MONTEREY or LIVE AT ATLANTA POP FESTIVAL
PURPLE HAZE LIVE AT ATLANTA POP FESTIVAL*
Atom Heart Mother Album
How about trying Mike Oldfield - Ommadawn part 1 or Tubular Bells
You need to watch "Pink Floyd at Pompeii" on the biggest screen you can.
At 28.23 you spoke right through the transition, tut tut.
Gotta get back to doing floyd albums my man.
React división bell and a momentary lapse of reason
*analysation or analysis? The candle dies just means it goes out because the candle has burned to its end. Good music like this is very healing and motivating. 'Fearlessly the idiot faced the crowd' is implying only an idiot would not be fearful in some circumstances. It would be normal to be fearful. Dogs will quite often sing along (howl along) to accoustic blues music - not sure why.
Great job Jony!
You are one of the best Pink Floyd "listeners" an old fan could ever meet.
I don't remember if I have already suggested it to you (probably yes), but now that you have listened to the official versions of Echoes, when you have half an hour free, watch this video that "interprets" that music at its best:

[continues]
Meddle is the album that marks the maturity of Pink Floyd. The one in which the journey of searching for oneself ends after replacing Syd with David.
There is still the whole solid foundation of the psychedelic experience with Syd ... and also the one that is still earlier Blues Fanky Jazz.
Then there is the new mix, four, practically complete and solid in Echoes after the last "outburst" of creating and performing a complete song each just like in the B-side of Atom Heart Mother (album that you should now "recover" :
m.czcams.com/video/YmwPy8Z7RpE/video.html ).
I would suggest that you finish listening to the whole "Pink Floyd At Pompeii Live" DVD in which there is a lot of good ... and something fun:
