It is written about band co-founder Syd Barrett, who experienced severe mental health issues. "Pile on many more layers, and I'll be joining you there,"was Waters' expression of empathy.
„Now there‘s a look in your eyes, like black holes in the sky“ is the hardest line for me, as you can feel how the band has felt when they met their former band member and what was left of him after his extensive drug abuse and what came from that…
To much LSD will do that to you, I had a friend who took it all the time and he went bonkers. His mom thought he had mental problems which I suppose you could call it that.
Syd had schizophrenia.
As Pink Floyd were recording the Wish you were Here sessions , a fat man with no hair/eyebrows walked in and no one recognized him for ages until they looked into his eyes ... It was Syd . They hadn't seen him for 7yrs , remarkable
It may be about Syd, I also think it's about Darrell 💎 Abbott from Pantera. As if your "ONE" you are in everyone. So are you one or were you one in the beginning. One that fragmented into everyone n everything that is now defragmented off every original fragmentation??
Greatest band of all time. Period.
All these years later . . . and still fresh. Glad to see so many still finding Floyd. They were special.
This song is not just about Syd, it's about all of the beautiful artistic souls that can't handle the pressures of life, of society. The painters, the prophets, the poets, the seers of visions. The crazy diamonds.
This is such a beautiful and accurate description ❤😍
Seguramente, creo que sus canciones tienen muchos matices y muchos puntos de vista que analizar,lo cual es maravilloso porque nos hace pensar y tener curiosidad, algo fundamental
NO, this song is about Syd Barrett - YOU want to generalize it to a broader spectrum, go for it ...... But chances are they weren't what THIS BAND was singing about
Have you guys thought that even tho it's supposedly about Pink the fact that the musicians back then sold to the DEVIL for rock n roll. Now when they do that do you not think they have all been n COULD THE SONG POSSIBLY BEEN ABOUT THE DIAMOND Darrell 💎 Abbott as well. We do live 4ever ??
Just some crazy thoughts there to get ya thinking could the song been about Diamond aswell SUCH A MARTYR
I HAVE THE TRAJICK HIP THAT WAS FLOATING N BLOWN . IS NOT ALL THE MUSIC CONTROLLING THE WORLD. IT EVEN SOMEWHAT MENTIONS WHAT DAMN NEAR SOUNDS LIKE IT VERY WELL COULD HAVE BEEN DIAMOND DARRELL ASWELL??
JUST A INQUISITIVE QUESTION N I WOULD LIVE TO SEE SOME OPIONIONS ON THAT??
Wrong it’s about syd!
What can I say, Pink Floyd, one of the best groups around! Great song. Great reaction!
I love how Pink Floyd has always let you watch their "secrets" by always showing the performers drum patterns, guitar fingering, and keyboards close up. They've always allowed us inside on stage with them. Still unique to this day.
Yes, they always had a crack video team that often focused on who was actually the soloist at the time, or actual, timely editing, about what is best to see and hear. Not just about speed and random edits which make no real sense. It is a shame this became the prominent technique, a waste of so many great performances, where you see their face but the instrument only for a few fleeting seconds or they only show the singer, endless bad video choices.
David doesn't plug his guitar into an amp. He plugs into your soul.
Yessss! That’s the feeling!
David Gilmour has so much talent. He makes that guitar weep and wail. He expresses himself so deeply in that song. Syd had so much talent and like so many, lost his mind to drugs and mental health. This is the most legendary tribute ❤️
David's guitar might be the best singer the band ever had . Not knocking his ,Roger's or Sid's singing but that guitar
Yep. It’s about losing somebody dear to you. And you’re right; it hits hard.
I still think this is the best Pink Floyd song of them all. And knowing it was about Syd Barrett and his mental health issues so he had to leave the band makes it even more special. I heard the story that when the band was rehearsing the song Syd actually walked in and listened to them playing it. It gives me goose bumps thinking about it.
No, that story isn’t true at all. Says dropped in on the DSOTM sessions, fat bald, and unrecognizable.
In truth, Roger Waters was embarrassed for Syd, and didn’t say anything to him.
Shine on… is one of my top 5 Floyd songs, but the empathy for Syd wasn’t as much as you think.
What part of what I wrote isn't correct?@@juliahartley-barnes975
This song is the epitome of the 'Floyd sound'. Grandiose, experimental, melancholy and the guitar and organ being vocals of their own when David (or Roger) isn't singing.
Pink Floyd used to open their concerts with this track as a tribute to Syd Barret , i saw them live in london 1989
And Never EVER Interrupt or pause a Gilmour solo !! It's considered a Sin in the music world! lol
More a disrespect thing I think we'd agree. 👍
Gilmour's guitar playing just tells stories by itself!! What an artist
When I got that album, I was a tad bit younger. But in spite of my youth, that song hit hard. I already knew about Sid and the difficulties he had. Now that I am notably older and have lost family members and friends over the years, the song has evolved into a deeply personal story of my lfe.
Roger Waters wrote those lyrics, David Gilmore came up with the hauntingly beautiful guitar riffs, Richard Wright with the smooth keyboards and Nick Mason the underlying rhythms.
This song is forever meaningful.
Dick Parry's sax playing adds a magical quality IMO
I was at the Kansas City version of this concert, also in 1994. Plenty of time to forget some details... and we were far enough away that we couldn't clearly see people on the stage. No problems hearing anything of course!
Saw this concert July of 94' in Chicago. Goes without saying.. was a RELIGIOUS experience....
I saw them July 3rd 1994 in Madison WI, camp Randall stadium. It rained. Great doesn’t describe it well enough. ❤
Saw them July 15 at the Silverdome in Detroit. Lucked out because they played Dark Side of the Moon straight through.
@@user-fh5nn9wz1w rained heavily the day of our concert as well…. Nobody cared but the groundskeepers at Soldier Field 😛
Lucky bastard!
i saw them in chicago soldier field animals had just come out something i will never forget
This Pink Floyd song perfectly illustrates the thoughts of French composer Claude Debussy who said: “Music is also the space between the notes”.
When David sings "you stranger", he is talking about their friend Syd, who due to his mental illness had become just like a stranger to them.
Syd even became a “prisoner” of his mental illness, as if locked in his own mind.
Along the same lines, see: "Brain Damage + Eclipse".
Inna, Floyd's albums are concept albums. They tell a story. Do yourself a favor and listen to entire albums in track order the way that we did before Cd's and streaming. 🤞✌️
True, especially if she wants to listen to Animals, Dark Side or The Wall in full. One song leads into the next and so on...
"Shine on You Crazy Diamond" is a song that in your original version had 26 minutes. When the album "Wish You Were Here" had released in 1975, they had divided this song in nine parts, with Part I-V as first song at Side A, and Part VI-IX as last song at Side B. This album is incredible (it contains "Wish you Were Here", other classic progressive rock). Great video to reaction, Inna, thank you!!!!!!!
If mankind survives a thousand more years, this music will still be listened to by those who understand.
David Gilmore playing call and response with himself (Voice and Guitare solo) still gets me every time. How do you even do that! Insane!
Love your love for music.
The Pinnacle of music... Pink Floyd.
Inna, I hope you react to "Great Gig in the Sky" from the "Delicate Sound of Thunder" video. It's the best version, with Rachel Fury, Durga McBroom and Margaret Taylor on vocals.
Agreed. I love that version!
Floyd=GOAT!✌️
I remember buying this album when it came out almost 50 years ago. Great album, another masterpiece from Pink Floyd.
Syd Barrett left Floyd in late 60’s. Unfortunately Syd’s choice of LSD changed his life. Years later he showed up at the studio and it took awhile for the guys to recognize him. Great tribute song to Syd and really one of the founders of Pink Floyd.
"Now there's a look in your eyes, like black holes in the sky." A reference to how Syd's eyes looked dead and dull once his drug habit had robbed them of the light. Fast forward to Division Bell, and this was echoed back in the lyrics of Poles Apart, "I never thought that you'd lose the light in your eyes." Consciously, or unconsciously, the departure of Syd from the band and the reasons behind it still affecting the band all those years later.
I love the emotions in your eyes and movements during the song. This song from Pink Floyd is a gem and it hits very hard.
Thanks for your reaction
This song always brings me to tears. Shine on baby. RIP Sid.
That's my favorite. A real beauty!
When I remember Rick and David talking in an interview about how on June 5, 1975, while recording this song, a fat bald guy with no eyebrows came into the studio holding a plastic bag and wearing baggy pants. Nobody knew who he was - they thought he was some kind of studio employee. He sat down in the corner and said nothing. Only after a long time did one of the employees say: Do you know who he is? Syd! It was a shock - they hadn't seen each other for almost two years and he had changed completely. Everybody remembered him as an incredibly handsome, sexy young man who all the girls in London wanted. Everyone was horrified and Roger burst into tears. The incredible thing was that he turned up in the studio just as they were recording the vocals for a song that was actually about him. As Wright says, it was really strange and a bit scary...
It wasn’t this song. Syd dropped in on DSOTM sessions, not Wish You Were Here sessions. DSOTM was recorded at Abbey Road.
@@juliahartley-barnes975 Unfortunately, you're wrong. To quote from the official source (Wikipedia), "...The album Wish You Were Here, based on material Pink Floyd composed while touring Europe, was recorded in many sessions during 1975 at EMI (now Abbey Road Studios) in London...".
And further (from the same source): "...That day the band was finishing the mix of "Shine On You Crazy Diamond" when an obese man with a shaved head and eyebrows entered the room carrying a plastic bag. Waters didn't recognize him, Gilmour assumed he was an EMI employee, Wright assumed he was a friend of Waters but realized it was Barrett, Mason also didn't recognize him and was "horrified" when Gilmour identified him. In Pink Floyd's memoir Inside Out, Mason recalled Barrett's conversation as "desperate and not entirely reasonable". Cover writer Storm Thorgerson also reflected on Barrett's presence: 'Two or three people were crying. He sat around and talked for a while, but he wasn't really there..."
@@lubos1207 wiki is wrong. I’ve seen the interviews with David and Roger, they told the right and true story in the late 80’s and again in the mid-90’s.
Someone decided to change the narrative, because it was more impactful. The truth is seldom seen as some grand story.
Besides, Wish You was 1975, by that time Syd never left the house. ✌️
I wanted to post this but you nailed it 👍. For the remaining band members each towering talents to express through this song their love and loss. It shows what an incredible person Syd Barrett must have been.
The saxophonist is Dick Parry, the original player on the album, as well as Dark Side Of The moon. A Cambridge friend from the local jazz community
Best tribute to a friend ever? Maybe yes.
perfection
Syd Barrett the foundation of the band and lead singer. When David Gilmore says Now there's a look in your eye, like Black Holes in the Sky. R.I.P. SYD
Greatest Pink Floyd song of all time
Saw them on this tour in Tampa 94. Still the most amazing show I have ever seen in over 400 concerts.
While Syd was there during the recording session, the band asked him what he thought about the music. He said that it sounded a bit old. Shortly after that he slipped out of the studio and they never saw him again.
That's what I like about Pink Floyd: Goosebumps. Always. Even if I heard the song a hundred times.
The song after this song is "welcome to the machine", then "have a cigar" and lastly " wish you were your here". 😊
Both (the late) Richard Wright (keyboards) and David Gilmour (vocals/ guitar) of Pink Floyd have said publicly that Pink Floyd's 1975 album 'Wish you were here' ... is their favorite record from their catalog... The epic, multi-part track "Shine on you crazy diamond" ... which was a major tribute to Syd Barrett, the lost founder of Pink Floyd, took up most of the album.
Richard Wright said, "I will listen to that album for pleasure... as not many of the Floyd albums I can."
Ya, I love the contradiction in the line "with random precision". Really does something to me.
You stranger, you legend, you martyr. This is, of course, a tribute to the missing member of Pink Floyd. Sid Barrett.
Syd Barrett walked into the recording studio when they were recording this song. His looks had changed so much, it took the rest of the band few minutes to figure out who he was. What timing. Side note, Dick Perry on SAX, he was also on the original studio recording
On Gilmour’s solo tour the acoustic performance of this song, with the sax at the end is 🔥 and my favorite performance. It’s on RUclips.
🔥 📛 your great reaction was appreciated inna thank you from your Australian old fella Chris ❤❤❤❤
I believe Syd Barrett actually wandered into the studio the day this song was recorded. He had gained weight and shaved off his eyebrows, and I do believe when you hear chuckle laughter during the album that is Syd.
he passed away many years later, after spending the last few decades of his life puttering around in his parents garden in the English countryside I understand…😢
Well done, you hit the nail on the head when you said it was about loss.
También debemos estar de acuerdo qué el saxofón 🎷 de Dick Parry es brutal y un floydiano mas de esta canción
I have always liked Rick's ethereal keyboards at the beginning with those tonal changes
A magnificent piece of music. I refer to David Gilmour as Mr Perfection. He seems to always sing and play 🎸 perfectly.😊🎉❤
Yup that pulled on some heart string for u.
I used to play this as one songs to fall asleep too
Your hair looks great Inna.❤😊
Great reaction! I have meditated many times with this song...
Não lembro exatamente se foi 2016 ou 2017... mas estava lavando os pratos, e assim que o Gilmour começou a cantar, minha vó (Com quase 80 anos) aparece mansamente na cozinha e diz: ''Essa música é bonita!''
Momento mágico!
This is the last time they did a full show together (October 29,1994). At the time the highest grossing Rock tour of all-time. For those who saw the tour it was a life changing night in our lives.
painter, you piper- you prisoner= Syd Barret wasting his life away instead of enjoying the fruits of his own groundings of Pink Floyd, he set the tone of pink floyd, when david came in it only got better and better. 'piper' is a reference to syds obsession with Kenneth Grahame's classic 1908 novel The Wind in the Willows( a story he wrote for his son Alastair who killed himself by putting his head on a railway track) but IN particular in the story it takes hard left turn into a bizarre but very interesting moment(not unlike early pink floyds music) Otter has lost his son and Rat and Mole get in their boat and row through the night to look for him. Just before the dawn they come upon incredible music and walking through the trees come face to face with a deity who is clearly (though never named) the Great God Pan. There at Pan’s feet is the lost otter boy. Ratty and Mole wake up later to find the otter boy and Mole is aware of a dream he cannot remember, while Rat notices hoof prints in the grass: Pan a benevolent god has blessed them with forgetfulness. They then load the boy into the boat and take him back to his family recognizing though that they have had an unusual if elusive experience. The instrument that 'pan' was playing was a 'panflute' or flute of pipes this was so captivating it led mole to their missing baby otter.
Your reaction is profound, on the beat and a joy to view. Your orchestral conductor hand movements is on time, they express your joy, too. Good to see someone enjoy their music like you do. Luv it.
One co founder of the band was put into a mental hospitol and is a prisoner of his own mind!
Syd will live on in this forever, Shine on Syd Barrett
Pink Floyd is an experience to never be forgotten. Memorizing your soul and emotions as each instrument tells a story played by unique talents. It's worth going down this rabbit hole. Enjoy each and every song. Thank You for bringing back memories. ❤😂😢❤... Be safe well healthy....the song written for Sid was 'Wish You Were Here'....
Nick Mason killed it on this one.
You are right! About losing someone.. "The song is written about and dedicated to founder member Syd Barrett, who departed from the band in 1968 after dealing with mental problems and substance abuse. "Shine On You Crazy Diamond" The single edit of Part I. Composition by Pink Floyd. from the album Wish You Were Here."
Aww honey. I'm crying my eyes out watching your reactions to this masterpiece. I love you!
This song is paying homage to one of the founding members, vocalist Syd Barret who had literally gone crazy by trying to use LSD & other drugs to treat his schizophrenia. Thus, the title "Shine On You Crazy Diamond"
Yeah, heavy indeed. 4 albums in a row with some look at the human condition, they just get to you emotionally like very, very few other bands. (Led Zeppelin & the Beatles come to mind). From the same concert, do any song you have not seen yet, it hardly matters which one, it is solidly magnificent start to finish, as it was when I saw that tour in 1994 in Foxboro MA. Please watch every song in time. Floyd forever! Enjoy. 🎵🎸🎤🎹🎷🎶
Your summation was spot on. This song was written about their former guitarist, Syd Barrett. He was a terribly “mentally anguished” soul, and ultimately took his own life. That occurrence however, molded them in a fashion that set them upon the path of brilliance that has held you captive on more than one occasion on your channel!!
Out of ALL the perfect Pink Floyd songs and this is a very difficult decision but i think Shine on you crazy diamond is the #1 song theyve done (Gilmour) and the Pulse concert version is the best!!!
thank you so much inna this song means alot to me and to see other people feeling it brings me so much joy
It is about Syd Barrett, but it highlights the "explorer" (in the Minor's hat in the film), who is being welcomed into the world of drugs, and excess by the world. He dives right in and many times at peril of your mental health.....like Syd.
See you soon on m.twitch.tv/innasolo ❤
The Pulse concert tour was epic, and still holds up 30 years later. I wonder how the TS Eras Tour will sound 30 years from now?!
This music is woderfull and Your reacionário is lovelly💐
This song is about the tragic life of one of the four co-founders of Pink Floyd in 1964, Syd Barrett.
The acronym for "Shine On You Crazy Diamond" is SOYCD,... the 1st, 3rd, and 5th letter spell SYD.
There's this famous picture of Syd Barrett who came to visit Pink Floyd in the studio when they were recording the "Wish you were here" album. Everyone wondered who this strange and bald guy was, none of the members of the band (which Syd once founded!) recognized him. One of the studio staff then told them eventually that this was in fact Syd and everyone was shocked. Make a Google search for this photo, compare it to pictures of the younger Syd and you'll understand lines like "Now there's a look in your eyes like black holes in the sky" ... Syd's story is so sad. What a legend indeed! RIP
P.S. Syd also was a painter (hence the lyrics "Come on you painter ...".
"... you piper ..." is a reference to the first PF album "The Piper at the Gates of Dawn", which was almost completely written and composed by Syd.
🦁may I request "Yet another movie", "Hey You" and "Wearing The Inside Out" - the only song where Richard is singing but not David, so beautiful its even hard to describe - sax and guitar solos + back vocals = everything
This song always gets me choked up.
The ultimate tribute to Pink Floyd's creative heart and soul, Inna. In Memoriam, Syd Barrett.
From the Pink Floyd - Wish You Were Here, album concert. Amazing album.
Only recently found that David Gilmour and Syd were childhood friends.
They were incredible together, and also some of their individual genius still lives on. David and his wife Polly (who wrote the lyrics after Roger left the band) have 8 children, and recently during covid lockdowns, did a series of home videos where they talked and David played and sang, and he and his daughter did a song from one of his solo albums:
ruclips.net/video/dGdEe8yp2TI/видео.html ( David Gilmour with Romany Gilmour - Yes, I Have Ghosts (Von Trapped Series) )
The song arise from Those Four Notes.
Waters heard them and took off.
This track motivates me to keep going as an artist despite all the pressure from society, even though I have very little money to live on. 98 per cent of all artists have no success, and many despair in life and give up.
Pink Floyd are great. They are like Beethoven in the sort of band 20c sense. The only thing things better than Floyd are Beatles and Dylan. I love this lady presenting this clip BTW, she's lovely.
David Gilmour really gives life to the notes he plays
Inna, li ho visti dal vivo a Torino nel 1994. Esperienza che va oltre la mia passione per la musica e che ricorderò per tutta la vita. Complimenti e continua ad amare questa meravigliosa arte!
TIMELESS !!!
Greatings from germany 03/2024 !
I need this music !!!!!!
"prisoner" refers to Syd's mental illness, something he obviously could not control. I love your take on the song, it IS (to me) about loss, as Syd was lost to his fellow band members. Whenever I hear it, I think back to friends and loves who are now gone.
"There is a look in your eyes, like black holes in the sky.", came from an incident with Roger "Sid" Barret. Sid was always the life of the party. Women wanted to be with him, he was friends with everyone. There was "life" in his eyes. One day, after a weekend of LSD use, he came into a club to perform. One of his friends looked at Sid and said hello. Sid didn't respond. The friend said. the life was gone from Sid's eyes. Sid's eyes were no longer full of life, but just two black holes.
I will see if I can find the interview where this story is told and post it here.
This is only a few parts of the piece. In full, it has nine parts and runs for nearly 26 minutes. They played the song on tour in 1974 before it was recorded in 1975.
You have to hear "One of These Days" and "Echoes". And the whole Animals album
that's a masterpiece. epic song
One of the best tributes I've ever experienced
I know that all tastes in music in are subjective, but if you don't appreciate this music, you are lost.
Floyds was my favourit Band even in past Éra in Slovakia 😃.
This is a great format: a reaction to your first reaction. Nice!
WOAH!!! Look at the great hair !! You look amazing !
The song makes a lot more sense if you're familiar with how the original member Syd rose to perfection then crumbled in peril.
Too cute!
❤❤❤❤
I was there. Earls court. . . Awesome gig. . Sound quality was astounding. . . The footage is fantastic, but nothing compared to being there.
Oh, and the glitter ball. . was 6 meters diam!
Precious colours in Your Eyes
