    Mother is actually a really sad song, it’s about an overbearing mum Molly coddling her son by not letting him be a boy and do the things he wants to. This is because she lost her husband in the war and is terrified of losing her son. It's all done through love, but has a negative effect on him creating bricks in his wall of isolation. That's why he says at the end, "Mother did it need to be so high".
    Also, when a song can affect you so greatly it's powerful, there's nothing wrong with exposing yourself to those feelings and especially appreciating your Mom.

      Exactly, it's a sad song about a mother who stifles and suffocates her child by being overbearing. It's easy too miss the meaning of this song when you don't know the whole story of the wall. It's a wall of psychological isolation and emotional disconnection that she helps Pink build. Listening to the whole album start to finish tells the story.

    It's a tough song about an overly protective mother. Her coddling has trapped her son and not let him spread his wings and find himself. He ends up broken and asking, "did that wall have to be so high?" because it's ultimately being a detriment to him.

  • @MDElam
    @MDElam Год назад +131

    This is a heartbreaking song. Roger Waters, the bassist, sings the little boy's lines ("Mother, will they drop the bomb?" etc.), and David Gilmour, the guitarist, sings the mother's lines ("hush now, baby, baby, don't you cry" etc.); and as Cadinho Merireles points out below, the song is about a well-intentioned but over-protective mother feeding into her son building the wall that separates him from others in the world. The whole album is brilliant, but I understand that the channel is set up more for individual songs, which I get and don't criticize. Thank you for all you do! Peace!

      I really hope they listen to entire albums once they react to enough singles from them. Pink Floyd is truly meant to be listened to all at once, from beginning to the end. And one really misses the full Pink Floyd experience when only reacting to singles. Particularly with the story that "The Wall" tells. Amber is such a fan, I feel bad that she is missing out on the full experience of a band she so obviously loves. Someday, she will experience them the way they are meant to be fully experienced. And if she thinks they blow her mind now, well, wow, just wait!
      I think a work around for them would be to react to the movie Pink Floyd The Wall. They can experience the full concept of the album in a way that work for their reaciton channels, albeit the movie reaction channel.

    As I’m seeing Amber smile during the moms part I’m thinking they really haven’t caught on to the lyrics. As many others have said, it’s about an overbearing coddling mother “she won’t let you fly but she might let you sing”. The song is actually quite sad, the mom is going to help him build a wall and contribute to his complete isolation. The last line “mama, did it need to be so high” always gets me 😢. Every response the mom gives him is chillin “mama’s gonna make all of your nightmares come true” “mama’s gonna put all of her fears into you”.

    • @aaradia

    • @johnplaysgames3120
      @johnplaysgames3120 Год назад +3

      Yeah, I think part of the issue (besides just listening to a song for the first time and missing some lyrics as they go by, which happens to everyone on various songs in their lives) is that if you don't know what "the wall" as a metaphor is referring to in the context of the story, it can be easy to just dismiss or ignore the lines that mention it or point to it on a first listen. I mean, the song is intentionally head-faking in the direction of "oh, mother's taking care of her baby" (which is what makes the turn in those lines so dark) so I can see how someone listening to it for the first time and with no knowledge about the theme of the album or the meaning of the title might miss it until a subsequent listen.

      "sink" - "she won't let you fly, but she might let you sink." - she doesn't want her chick to fly, to flee the nest and she is prepared to let her child sink, to fail, rather than see that happen. Her son sinking with her is better than him flying without her.

    You should read the lyrics to "Mother". It's not nice. It's domineering. Mama's going to make all of your nightmares come true / Mama's gonna put all of her fears into you............etc. The three elements that drove "Pink" over the edge were his father's death, his domineering mother, and a cruel schoolmaster.

    The Wall was my first of 4 Pink Floyd concerts, I saw them in Feb of 1980 at the Nassau Coliseum in Long Island, New York, I loved them for years before that but that is when I would say I became a die-hard Floydian

    Great reaction. Honestly, there always seems a difference of perception on this song. It was meant to be a sad song about an over protective Mother who shields her son and doesn’t let him live his own life. However, lately a lot of reactors see the mother as loving and looking out for the son. Crazy how times & perception changes over the years

    • @proudmoon3
      @proudmoon3 Год назад +6

      It seems obvious that the relationship is unhealthy if you catch the disturbing lyrics, though: "...Mama's gonna make all of your nightmares come true/Mama's gonna put all of her fears into you......She won't let you fly but she might let you sing..." I knew this song long before I had children, and took it as a warning not to hold too tightly.

    • @johnplaysgames3120
      @johnplaysgames3120 Год назад

      I don't think perceptions have changed, I think it's just that reactors are hearing it for the first time and missing the relevance of certain lines (or missing the lines altogether) specifically because it's their first listen. With this song in particular, the lyrics are kind of doing a head-fake in the direction of "oh, mother's taking care of her baby..." - because that's sort of the point, right? That mother *thinks* she's doing the right thing but really she's unknowingly passing her neuroses down to her child in a way that both characters in the song don't even see - and so I can see how someone on a first listen might catch the seeming gist of the lyrics but miss the subtle reveal of the more sinister lines (especially if, at that moment, they happen to be paying more attention to the instruments or are distracted with wondering when the spacy sounds they expect from PF are going to kick in).
      Tbh, there are a lot of reaction channels that will never understand what the lyrics of various songs are saying because they're only listening at a surface level and are (a) not bright enough to parse the meaning of the lyrics, and/or (b) simply don't bother trying because they don't actually care and the only reason they're doing the video is to knock out a song that will grab views from the nostalgia crowd. J&A are not those people. They often process the meanings of songs (and do so very well) and seem to genuinely listen to, experience, and absorb the music in the moment and into their lives more than the vast majority of non-vocal coach reactors out there. But, like anyone, they'll sometimes miss the bigger picture on a first listen.
      Also, I've noticed a number of reactors who react to isolated songs from The Wall don't understand what the idea of "the wall" is referring to. It's obvious once you know but, to many folks who are hearing a song from this album for the first time, it just sounds like an abstract image or metaphor and they let it go by without connecting it to the other lyrics.

    Like others have said, this song is not a warm remembrance of your dear mom taking care of you. It's about an over-protective mother smothering her son's development in the wake of the loss of her husband ('Pink's' father) during WWII. The Wall is not a collection of songs to be played on shuffle mode. The Wall is a brilliant concept album presented in story form. It is designed to be listened to from start to finish. When you do that you will have the full context of each song. Please treat yourself and listen to The Wall as it was designed.

    That was so groundbreaking when it came out. Think it was 1980 or maybe it was 1979. A huge step forward for them but also it kind of fit with the changing into the '80s and the invention of mtv. It's the beginning of social media I suppose. Nobody ever really had something like that before.

      The Who did it with their rock opera, Tommy, 10 years earlier, but that faded pretty fast, probably because it was a bit shallow (although elton john as the Pinball Wizard still sticks in the mind). There were a couple of others but they werent memorable either. Probably Yellow Submarine was the other one that was the biggest (great if youre drunk or stoned by the way - yellow submarine was basically made to watch while youre drinking or smoking weed).
      The Wall caught the switch from rock, to punk, to new romantic and synth music perfectly. Partly because Floyd were a little bit of all of those things. The only artist with the same pedigree was Brian Eno and/with Roxy Music. Eno basically invented punk music with Third Uncle. If youre a Floyd fan, listen to Third Uncle and see where Floyd got sone of their inspiration. If youre a Floyd fan and havent heard Third Uncle you will be shocked by its opening bars.
