@@davidperlowski1477 I enjoyed Animal Farm more than 1984. Very fast paced book. 1984 is a bit slow for me, but never the less a work of genius, as is the Album Animals.
Hell yeah. As much as I love Wish You Were Here and Dark Side Of The Moon, this is my all time fav Floyd album. Growing up listening to my parents music I was drowned in lots of classical and opera, Vangelis, The Beatles and Pink Floyd, and Animals was to most often played Floyd album. It's soaked into my soul
This girl gets it. Her facial expressions and dancing are exactly what I feel inside when I listen to this. My late Dad's favorite Floyd song and one of my favorite songs of all time. I have very fond memories as a kid with my Dad listening to Floyd with a pair of Klipsch corner horns in our small living room. On more than one occasion we'd have neighbors coming over to see "the live band" they thought we had or even the police coming down from a busy nearby park a block away. One memory I have as maybe a 10 year old (27 years ago), the police knocked on the door for 20 minutes... My dad ignored them until my Mom made him answer the door. The cops told him they could hear the music from down the road and they would write him a ticket if he didnt turn it down. He looked at them and said "I haven't heard this song in years", closed the door, went back to the living room and cranked it. I think it was a Floyd song but I cant remember for sure. Ill have to ask my Mom lol.
Still sounds great on the Klipsch speakers. I recently bought the Animals remaster on Blu-ray with the Atmos mix. It's like listening for the first time again. There are details I've never heard before (same with Dark Side).
Agreed. I've owned this album ever since it was first released, and can listen to the music any time I want. My whole purpose in watching and listening to this reaction, is to learn how it makes Aileen feel.
Hopelessly passing your time in the grassland away Only dimly aware of a certain unease in the air Such great poetry, so much gravitas in these words... An absolute brilliant song with deep and unsetteling lyrics. Truly one of Pink Floyd's greatest masterpieces.
Roger, for all his flaws as an human being, is a genius lyricist and in this album he was at his most poignant, incisive and brutal self. As for David, he did most of his best guitar work here, not only on the solos but also riifing like a maniac, although he probably disagrees. Glorious album.
In the Good Old Days we bought albums on vinyl and the cover was large enough to have all the lyrics for each track, the artwork and lyrics were an integral part of listening.
I didn’t buy it, it was the year I was born. However, my parents had an original release of Wish You Were Here. They no longer have it. I do. Framed and hanging on my wall.
Yep. Read an album cover -- or rather covers ... whether 2 or 4 -- over and over again while the album played on the turntable. Analyzed every picture until they were etched onto the brain. This was especially true for Pink Floyd and Yes albums. As well as Jethro Tull and Emerson, Lake and Palmer .
I saw this album Live on their 1977 tour in the old Boston Garden. I won the all time music lottery that night as Animals was the first set then after an intermission, they came back and did all of Wish You Were Here. The encore was a jammed out medley from Dark Side of the Moon. One of the best shows ever, you can hear audio from it on You Tube, it is well worth searching for, David Gilmour used a stinging Fender Telecaster for Animals and his signature Stratocaster for the 2nd set. They had a pioneering 5 channel PA system that was the most immersive I ever heard, the separation was like having headphones on, we were right next to the audio/video island in the center of the floor so close to the focus for it, it was astounding to experience. They were decades ahead of everyone with their show presentation. Hear it ASAP and enjoy! 🔥🎵🎸🎤🎹🎶🔥
@@thomasmoroney1079 Yep, Red Sox fan since Yaz almost won it all by himself in 1967. Being alive at that time we were beyond lucky. Pink Floyd was by far the best band I ever saw.
It's always a pleasure watching someone that allows themself to become immersed in the music when listening to a new Pink Floyd cut. Can you imagine how excited we were back in the day when a new Pink Floyd album was released? I get almost that excited when I see you've posted a new Pink Floyd reaction.
Dave Gilmour played the bass on this and “Pigs”. Roger Waters plays the guitar on both. The rhythm guitar explosions on “Sheep” are performed by Gilmour, and the ending notes are also composed and performed by Gilmour. Iconic.
I'm 77 , first saw Floyd live in '67. I still consider the double album Ummagumma to be the best. I love Saucer Full of Secrets. Might be an age thing?? 😂😂👍👍
David Gilmour is 78 now,and he has just released a new album. His daughter Romany sings on it as well. I recommend you review The Pipers Call from the album. You'll find despite his advancement in age,his output especially on guitar is as good as it ever was.
"Sheep" is my favorite song from Animals. The 1st time I heard it was on the radio! I thought, "Wow! cool song!"😊 The remixed version sounds even better in my humble opinion.
The Dark Side of The Moon, Wish You Were Here, Animals, and The Wall are all absolute masterpieces. If Meddle isn't a masterpiece, it definitely foreshadows the masterpieces that are to come next.
Roger Waters was inspired by George Orwell's book "Animal Farm", while recording the "Animals" album. At the end of this song Roger Waters is basically saying all human beings are essentially the same. Power corrupts. Notice how the sheep had an uprising and killed the dogs. They thought themselves became the new dogs and began to abuse the weaker.
"...you follow the leader down well-trodden corridors into the valley of steel." The sheep being led to the slaughter. The 'valley of steel' is the narrow steel chute that leads to 'processing'. It's the last thing the sheep see before they realise their fate.
Exactly. And the prayer started verse by verse the traditional same...then lamb cutlets? Not part of the program and it makes so much sense considering the theme of the number and the entire album. So creative and relatable.
It's about the oppressive system created by Wealthy Elite Capitalists (pigs), how the F45C15T police state (dogs) rises up to protect the status quo from Revolutionaries, and those who buy into the status quo (sheep). The context is both Roger Waters and George Orwell are Socialists (actual Leftists). Read _Animal Farm_ (the book this album was based on) and _The Communist Manifesto_ to see past the real life status quo propaganda.
It's very intentional that the opening of Sheep puts you in a trance. Because the overwhelming majority of us "Sheeple' go through life completely unaware of how they're being controlled and manipulated, anesthetized into a laconic subservient stupor. And those that are aware mostly remain docile because they're comfortable. But should the Sheep collectively awaken and decide they've had enough, all Dogs and Pigs need to run from the demented vengeance Sheep will inflict. If the revolution is successful, then eventually from the revolutionary Sheep, eventually Dogs and Pigs will arise and the entire cycle will start anew. It's human nature. And if a revolution doesn't happen, then after a brief lashing out, the Sheep will just go back to grazing. Btw, Roger, my dogs slightly resent the way they're portrayed.
I love how excited you got with this storyline trip Aileen, great job sharing with us. And you said it, "masterpiece album"... can you imagine being at a live event early 80's was only 10 dollars
I would love to see you showcase some Syd Barrett Pink Floyd. It is completely different but still amazingly Pink Floyd! Maybe "Paintbox" an amazing upbeat song.. or "Remember a day"
Lovely, thoughtful reaction as always Aileen, I’m along for the ride and the deep dive. There are so many epic Pink Floyd albums, I’m happy to go just where you want to take me, a bit like the sheep. Love from the Uk ❤️🏴🇬🇧
During their tours in 1974, Pink Floyd played three new songs in the first half of the shows, followed by The Dark Side of the Moon in its entirety. The three new songs were "You've Got to Be Crazy" (which later became "Dogs"), "Shine On You Crazy Diamond" and "Raving and Drooling" (which later became "Sheep"). "You've Got to Be Crazy" and "Raving and Drooling" were originally planned to be on the album Wish You Were Here, but plans changed and they ended up in different forms on Animals as "Dogs" and "Sheep".
I'm 33yo and not a day goes by that I don't listen to Pink Floyd in some shape or form thanks to my father. I still get to enjoy it with him and have since passed in down to my son who is 10. We always enjoy these times and it is really a coming together of generations with love for Pink Floyd
Your interpretations of the music and lyrics are spot on without the words...first time i heard this i new it was a killer track then later the lyrics blew my mind its about us!!
Aileen, I'm always amazed, at your understanding of the deeper meaning of songs. May I suggest, you read " 1984", and " Animal Farm". Also, will you give a reaction, to Pink Floyd's, " San Tropez", from their " Meddle" album? Thanks, in advance! It's another great album !
Yeeesssss. My favorite song from this great album. i love SHEEP. . Fantastic song. . Love that beginning intro. . Great guitar sound and guitar work and guitar solo. 🎸🎸🎸. Absolutely amazing SONG. . CRANK IT UP LOUD.
I went to the Roger Waters concert in November last year. It’s incredible to see this song live with all the visual effects he brings to the show. It was one of the greatest artistic experiences I've ever had in my life.
quiet bit: The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not want He makes me down to lie Through pastures green He leadeth me the silent waters by With bright knives He releaseth my soul He maketh me to hang on hooks in high places He converteth me to lamb cutlets For lo, He hath great power and great hunger When cometh the day we lowly ones Through quiet reflection and great dedication Master the art of karate Lo, we shall rise up And then we'll make the bugger's eyes water
@@cdolan13 well yeah obviously it is. Roger is a huge reason why pink floyd lasted so long even tho he was an antagonist most of the time. im a david guy but iv heard his albums and they are limited . david needs roger, roger needs david imo
@@CoolCoyote Don't get me wrong, I like Roger as well! And I agree that he was the driving force after Dark Side of the Moon, but he did NOT write every note of every song - can you imagine him standing over any of the others telling them what notes to play? Except The Wall, of course.
The album is bookended by each half of "Pigs on the Wing", a simple love song in which a glimmer of hope is offered despite the anger expressed in the other songs. Described by the author Andy Mabbett as "in stark contrast to the heavyweight material between them" The halves were influenced by Waters' relationship with his then wife. ruclips.net/video/rMBI9aApoik/видео.htmlsi=ypYfU8Kf-V3i7_Hr
Lyrical genius. One of the greatest albums of all times. Waters' lyrics should be taught in all schools. The world would be so much a better place. Empathy, understanding, a common will to work relentlessly for human rights and a fairer planet.
When this album was released I was 17! It's become my favorite Pink Floyd album! That's saying a lot cause I love them all! In 1988 I got to see them 3 times, of course Roger wasn't with them! But it was awesome all the same! When i saw you reviewing Sheep today. Goosebumps covered my body! I thought " My girl is listening to my music again!! I love it!!
The middle part around 5:32 is still one of the spookiest things I’ve ever heard, especially in a Pink Floyd song. Those synth lines are incredibly eerie mixed in the pulsating bass, bleating sheep and the Lord’s Prayer in vocoder. Still gives me chills to this day.
Animals is the best album that any group ever recorded - it has it all: top production, skilled lyrics writing, punk, prog, rock, metal - this was and always will be music art of the highest level possible. Thank you so much for reaction on it - and also not only emotional but also analytically.
NOW GORGEOUS, ITS TIME TO TURN OUT THE LIGHTS, LAY BACK N LISTEN TO THE WHOLE ALBUM. JUST YOU N PINK FLOYD. GREAT REACTIONS AILEEN. 👏 THE ALBUM… MEDDLE, IS A GREAT ONE TO DO. THE FIRST SONG, ONE OF THESE DAYS. ROCK ON 👊🖖
Animals is the Pink Floyd’s purest favorite album and either dogs or sheep are their favorite songs on that album my favorite song on animals is animals itself!
Hello Aileen. It’s Pink Floyd, what else is there to say!!!!! Masterpiece album for sure 👍🏻. It’s a great feeling when a band puts you in a “twilight zone” kind of mood!!!! Great analogy there in your analysis. Gilmore is coming to LA in October. Looking into seeing one of his shows here. Keep up the great content with your reactions. 😉😉😉…
"The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not want. He makes me down to lie. He will pass judgement and leadeth me the silent waters by. With bright knives, he releaseth my soul. He maketh me to hang on hooks in high places. He converteth me to lamb cutlets, for lo he hath great power, and great hunger. When cometh the day we lowly ones, through deep reflection and great dedication master the art of karate, Lo we shall rise up and make that bugger's eyes water."
It really does make me happy to wait for your Pink Floyd reactions to listen to their songs for the first go around cause I rally do love hearing your commentary/thoughts on the songs 😭❤️
Great album. Pink Floyd are masters of beautiful compositions that flow smoothly into each other. Other great albums are Meddle, Dark Side of the Moon and Wish You Were Here. And don't stop rambling, just love the way you explain everything how you think and feel about it.
Das komplette Album half mir sehr oft in Paraleelwelten zu entfliehen, warum entfliehen? In den 70`-ern wurde ich von den Kommunisten stark verfolgt und zweimal inhaftiert wergen meiner Überzeugung.
May I suggest WYWH (Wish You Were Here) album review in its entirety? Maybe side one and then side two? Love your in-depth reactions! (Two separate reactions if need be)
Rick Wright really carried so much of the transitions between those memorable motifs throughout this entire album and here on sheep he shows remarkable variety within a single piece.
Last track side two (after Sheep): Pigs on the Wing (Part 2) You know that I care what happens to you And I know that you care for me too So I don't feel alone Of the weight of the stone Now that I've found somewhere safe To bury my bone And any fool knows a dog needs a home And shelter from pigs on the wing
Great job Aileen! Thank you for again giving a good listen to the albums and songs out there. I would venture.. Wish you Were Here next from Pink Floyd. Look up the concept of it and why.. then listen to it.. you will love it being in the fringes of the music industry like you are.
The seemless transition of Roger's long vocal notes into the synthesizer is pure magic. What a bass groove.
Love the "flanged" bass.
That image of the sheep rising up and fighting to victory over the dogs inspired the crap out of me when I was a bullied little kid.
And the leader of the sheep announcing.........You´d better stay home and do as your told. ha ha ha

Animals my favorite, followed by Wish You Were Here
I saw this show in Cleveland 77. My brain hasn't been right since.
Animals is a master class in creating an entire album that has a core concept one of my favorites of all time.
Dogs is my favorite, but Sheep brings this album to a climax. Brilliance. Great video.

@@Ryan.fromWA Totally worth it. You will definitely enjoy.
This is one of the rare pieces of Pink Floyd that doesn't have a guitar solo in it.
Sheep move in herds and none come to the forefront.
Do you actually know how many Pink Floyd songs do not have a guitar solo? There are a LOT.
@@WiebodeWit

rare at DG era
a few in hundreds of PF songs

Animals is definitely their heaviest album.
One of the best moments in WKRP in Cincinnati is Mr. Carlson walking in on Johnny Fever, while the song is playing. "Do you hear 'sheep'?"
"I do."
Just another masterpiece in the Floyd Cannon.

Roger Waters was inspired by George Orwell's book "Animal Farm", while recording the "Animals" album.
At the end of this song Roger Waters is basically saying all human beings are essentially the same. Power corrupts.
Notice how the sheep had an uprising and killed the dogs. They thought themselves became the new dogs and began to abuse the weaker.
The endless cycle of power and abuse
Or, as said by another group - “Meet the new boss…same as the old boss”
"...you follow the leader down well-trodden corridors into the valley of steel."
The sheep being led to the slaughter. The 'valley of steel' is the narrow steel chute that leads to 'processing'. It's the last thing the sheep see before they realise their fate.
Exactly. And the prayer started verse by verse the traditional same...then lamb cutlets? Not part of the program and it makes so much sense considering the theme of the number and the entire album. So creative and relatable.
It's about the oppressive system created by Wealthy Elite Capitalists (pigs), how the F45C15T police state (dogs) rises up to protect the status quo from Revolutionaries, and those who buy into the status quo (sheep).

During their tours in 1974, Pink Floyd played three new songs in the first half of the shows, followed by The Dark Side of the Moon in its entirety.
The three new songs were "You've Got to Be Crazy" (which later became "Dogs"), "Shine On You Crazy Diamond" and "Raving and Drooling" (which later became "Sheep").

quiet bit:
The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not want

For lo, He hath great power and great hunger
When cometh the day we lowly ones
Through quiet reflection and great dedication
Master the art of karate
Lo, we shall rise up
And then we'll make the bugger's eyes water
This is the Lord's Prayer, tweaked to Waters' advantage.

We are the sheep, Corporate is the dogs
Animals is the best album that any group ever recorded - it has it all: top production, skilled lyrics writing, punk, prog, rock, metal - this was and always will be music art of the highest level possible. Thank you so much for reaction on it - and also not only emotional but also analytically.
"Atom Heart Mother" album, Pink Floyd. Probably my favorite ! Thanks for your reactions Aileen
NOW GORGEOUS, ITS TIME TO TURN OUT THE LIGHTS, LAY BACK N LISTEN TO THE WHOLE ALBUM.
JUST YOU N PINK FLOYD. GREAT REACTIONS AILEEN. 👏 THE ALBUM… MEDDLE, IS A GREAT ONE TO DO. THE FIRST SONG, ONE OF THESE DAYS. ROCK ON 👊🖖
One of my favorite Pink Floyd songs
Animals is the Pink Floyd’s purest favorite album and either dogs or sheep are their favorite songs on that album my favorite song on animals is animals itself!
My favorite Pink Floyd album.
David playing the bass on this one
That is why it sounded so much better
Great reaction Aileen loved all three of your reactions of these. looking beautiful as always
Hello Aileen. It’s Pink Floyd, what else is there to say!!!!! Masterpiece album for sure 👍🏻. It’s a great feeling when a band puts you in a “twilight zone” kind of mood!!!! Great analogy there in your analysis. Gilmore is coming to LA in October. Looking into seeing one of his shows here. Keep up the great content with your reactions. 😉😉😉…
"The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not want.
He makes me down to lie.
He will pass judgement and leadeth me the silent waters by.
With bright knives, he releaseth my soul.
He maketh me to hang on hooks in high places.
He converteth me to lamb cutlets, for lo he hath great power, and great hunger.
When cometh the day we lowly ones, through deep reflection and great dedication master the art of karate,
Lo we shall rise up and make that bugger's eyes water."
We may be sheep, but push to hard and we rebel. We learn karate. Viva la reavolution!
Oh boy, now you are getting into the good stuff.
It really does make me happy to wait for your Pink Floyd reactions to listen to their songs for the first go around cause I rally do love hearing your commentary/thoughts on the songs 😭❤️
Great album. Pink Floyd are masters of beautiful compositions that flow smoothly into each other. Other great albums are Meddle, Dark Side of the Moon and Wish You Were Here. And don't stop rambling, just love the way you explain everything how you think and feel about it.
Danke, habe es jetzt seit langem wiedereinmal gehört, Großartig
Das komplette Album half mir sehr oft in Paraleelwelten zu entfliehen, warum entfliehen? In den 70`-ern wurde ich von den Kommunisten stark verfolgt und zweimal inhaftiert wergen meiner Überzeugung.
Great video Aileen, love watching you react to music I love so much. Animals Is a masterpiece just like The Wall and The Final Cut
Honesty, your commentary is the only reason i listen to new songs 😂. It always fun to listen to your rambling ❤
Recorded in '77 this album is more important, depending on the lyrics, than ever!
I love the gradually build of the bass guitar behind the keyboards.
So wonderful and amazing your reaction as always Hun. You never have to apologize for your thoughts. I always adore your videos and you. 🌹🌹🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤
Your head shaking at the end was right on cue!!!!! I do the same thing !!!
Next pink floyd shine of you crazy diamond
Live from pulse.
May I suggest WYWH (Wish You Were Here) album review in its entirety? Maybe side one and then side two?
Love your in-depth reactions!
(Two separate reactions if need be)
I went through this whole album advanture with you.
Exceptional reaction from an exceptional reactor. So very well done!
Indeedy, great reaction 🎼🎶🎶🎵🎵❤️🎧🌈
Damn, you left it long enough that I completely forgot about this last part.
Rick Wright really carried so much of the transitions between those memorable motifs throughout this entire album and here on sheep he shows remarkable variety within a single piece.
No heartbeat monitor Aileen? Tripping now❤
Notes of Dr.Who in it, this is my favorite Pink Floyd album.
Last track side two (after Sheep):
Pigs on the Wing (Part 2)
You know that I care what happens to you
And I know that you care for me too
So I don't feel alone
Of the weight of the stone
Now that I've found somewhere safe
To bury my bone
And any fool knows a dog needs a home
And shelter from pigs on the wing
Great job Aileen! Thank you for again giving a good listen to the albums and songs out there. I would venture.. Wish you Were Here next from Pink Floyd. Look up the concept of it and why.. then listen to it.. you will love it being in the fringes of the music industry like you are.
