I love this song. I agree with your assessment that it sounds like depression and desperation. I think it's interesting how David Gilmour takes the lead vocal at the beginning and has a more calm quality to his voice, and then Roger Waters takes the higher vocal and the 'no hope at all' line at the end. As for additional Pink Floyd reaction suggestions, my personal favorite from the Pulse concert is 'Sorrow'. It's intense and I actually like it better than 'Comfortably Numb.'
Great job Dad for introducing your son to some of the greatest music created. Their was a moment when his eyes light up and a small grin appeared and he was hooked. Keep it up. Peace!
Awesome Reaction..In a small group of best songs of all time. Without a doubt my favorite band since I was a kid. This band has gotten me through some really dark days at a very early part of life from my parents fighting and getting into crazy shit throughout life down the road... Dad drinking, great heart, great provider but byproduct of abusive Father, so detached or angry with glimmers of who he really is at heart. Great man and finally fully “him” in his old age.. Have fallen asleep to more Pink Floyd songs than any band. Have probably also cried quite a few times from the absolute beauty of the chord arrangements and lyrics...I don’t think I would take any of it back because it’s made me a very specific person with my kids in a very good way. This song is heavy to me...Great content!
In the original tour of The Wall (1979, 80), a 35ft high wall is built across the entire front of the stadium during the first half of the concert. By the time the band gets to this song, they are completely obscured from the audience by The Wall. This song, Hey You, is sung from behind the wall. Roger Waters toured with The Wall as recently as 2016. The phenomenal shows were even more extravagant, playing indoor and outdoor stadiums from coast to coast and setting all time touring records.
Saw the wall live back in Germany. Gilmour performed this when the wall had been completed and just as he started to play a dummy fell off the top, we thought he'd fell. Brilliant.
Your description of this song-someone who trying to describe loneliness, depression-feeling isolated-and playing this song to describe how it feels, it really moved me. Because that is exactly how I feel. Dealing with depression and ptsd throughout my life, I have always felt that PF's music and lyrics so often describe things in a way I can't. So, well said. First time seeing your channel tonight, subbed.
"Hey You" though performed live during the '94 Division Bell" concerts, was left off of the Pulse DVD and album recordings of it. For the young man.. Rodger Waters is the higher voice you hear toward the end. He was the lyricist and conceptual genius behind Pink Floyd. Also co-lead vocalist and bass player. His life is what much of "The Wall" is based on, along with mental deterioration inspired by original co-founder Syd Barrett. In The Wall album, the passion and pain of Roger's vocals throughout, matches and at times exceeds Gilmour's amazing guitar playing. Roger left the band in the mid-80s before two of their biggest tours were filmed. So sadly he doesn't get the credit he deserves from younger generations. But make no mistake about his importance in the overall success of the band. None of these songs or concepts would exist without his dark and troubled genius.
BTW, you left out 'Animals' in talking about Floyd's greatest albums. It is considered by many their finest album. You might want to check out "Dogs" from that album next.
Hey You is on the Pulse CD, and it's fantastic. They didn't play it on the night they filmed, that's why it's not on the DVD. Such a shame they filmed only one concert from the tour.
they were perfection and so it was inevitable that at some stage they would fall apart! For me the amazing thing was we got a solid decade+ of "real Pink Floyd" and in some way the greatest compliment paid to them is that there have been no pretenders to their sound and yet it was clearly very commercial.
In the story, the protagonist’s father dies in WWII, and he is raised by an over protective mother and he eventually builds up a wall to protect himself from any more trauma like losing his father... he eventually becomes a rockstar and junkie... that is when the album transitions to Comfortably Numb (when he OD’s) etc. Must watch the full length movie with Bob Geldof playing the main character.
Pink Floyd pretty well invented moving light shows at concerts. I have seen a video from 1967? where they projected a lava light effect on the group. Blobs of different colours flowing around. But they are known for lighting/special effects, as well as the music of course! So please, when you guys watch ANYTHING live by Pink Floyd, watch the screen! They always paid as much attention to detail in their shows, as they did on their albums, and we all know just how much detail that was..... I first heard Pink Floyd when I was in high school, in 1975. Have seen them twice, unfortunately never with Roger Waters (but they were still amazing shows, check out Pulse videos.) and have been listening to them ever since. Have also seen David GIlmour solo, as well as Roger Waters solo(With Clapton as guitarist!), three weeks apart!
For me The Wall is the greatest rock concept of all time. Roger Waters was the bass player. I remember local Seattle rock radio station KISW 99.9 broadcast the entire concert from LA back in 1980.
Although, Gilmour plays all the good fretless bass licks on this track and on other songs on The Wall. Listen to Young Lust, Gilmour plays some sick bass on that track too.
Colombian here, iand i just cant wait to see your reaction to quality. 😆😉 I think they were the first to make a continous album in which one track ties smoothly onto the next, with no clear difference if you just the whole 45 minute record play all at once. I listened to this record in 1988 for the first time. Still my favorite band of all times and Im 45 in 2021.
Hey, I like seeing you guys now bigger in the screen instead of tucked up in a corner! Pink Floyd request: Shine On You Crazy Diamond - that song will take you away on a journey.
Really good guys. Lifelong PF fan at 49. And Dad you're right about the passion and hurt in his voice. That very point was brought to my attention long ago when I heard the Is There Anybody Out There live version (recordings from The Wall tour) of this song, which came out 15 yrs ago or so.
To me ,the the most powerful line in the song , " Don't help them to bury the light ." Our problem is that there are too many out there who are trying to bury the light . The light of equal rights , equal justice and human dignity . If we stand united , we have a chance of stopping them. We must show them they are their own worst enemy.
This whole album has meant so much to me as a chronic clinical depression sufferer. The "Wall" was literally what I built in my mind to manage to separate my depression from the outside life. As in the story of the Wall album, you can only do that for a limited time and then the whole Wall crumbles. It really speaks to me.
Ah Hey You , like a mini Comfortably Numb another beaut reaction from you both ,off this album. Pink Floyd primarily began as artists who morphed into using sound to paint their pictures, unique in that regard,which may explain why they were great conceptually to derive albums that flow. Don't forget to check out the musical orgasm that was The Animals album, right up there with the others mentioned.
David Gilmour solos are AMAZING! I agree with someone that once said "David doesn't plug his guitar into an amp. He plugs it into his soul!". No one I've heard can make a guitar sing like David!
You MUST watch the PULSE version of this song. And try as well the Animals album and The Finsl Cut album. Oh. And try some solo work of Roger Waters.... There is much more in PinkbFloyd than only Dark Side, WYWH and The Wall.
RE: concept albums: This certainly wasn't the first, but it might be the pinnacle of concept albums. Possibly the first concept album was S.F SORROW by The Pretty Things. Then there's TOMMY, by the Who, which is probably THE concept album that comes first to people's minds (along with THE WALL). And their album QUADROPHENIA, which predated THE WALL (I hear a lot of QUADROPHENIA in THE WALL, myself...)
Hey guys great reactions great honesty everytime I always check to what pink floyd y9u done lately and I love the Wall reactions but you missed my favorite. " Mother ". Amazing lyrics by bother Waters and Gilmour and listen out for my favorite DG solo in the middle. The live version has an extended solo. I well up every. Thankyou. Let me know what you think.
sorry I just found your channel..I'm a new subscriber, thanks to your Pink Floyd reactions. Watching your PF playlist now, in fact. Would love to see a reaction to Dogs Of War, at some time. Thanks for these
Hey Guys, I came across your channel in recommendations and listened to your reaction to Bob Dylan. I'm a big fan! and I'd like to recommend a couple of songs I think you will Really like these songs are somewhat political but I think they are current with the times. 1st song: "BOB DYLAN - THE TIMES THEY ARE A CHANGING" and the 2nd song "BOB DYLAN - MURDER MOST FOUL (Official Video)" I find it interesting to hear both of your reactions and listening to each one of your perspectives is refreshingly deferent. I am looking forward to seeing what you think of these songs. Thanks for sharing
Hey guys , glad ya back I been waiting..!!😂😂 Love the Floyd reactions keep"em coming..... Would you please check out a band called BLACKFOOT....? #1 Train Train.... #2 The Highway Song... Thanks again fellas... You're Brilliant...keep shining..!!🤙
Concept albums. The Who Tommy The Who Quadrophenia The Kinks Arthur The Moody Blues Days of Future Passed. The Beatles Sgt.Peppers kind of The Kinks Lola vs Powerman and The Money Go Round Jethro Tull Aqualung and probably many more. The Kinks had 3 lesser known ones also
This album from '79 sold 22,000,000. Waters wrote most of their great stuff after he tossed Syd Barrett out of the band in '68. That's Waters on the second lead with the high pitched voice, Dave Gilmour on the first lead vocals.
Quote from Roger Waters: "Hey You is a cry to the rest of the world, you know saying hey, this isn't right; So, at the end of Hey You he makes this cry for help, but it's too late ... he's only singing it to himself, you know, it's no good crying for help if you're sitting in the room all on your own, and only saying it to yourself ".
Hey guys, i just watched all the Kanye reactions and was wondering if you guys could check out some Kendrick Lamar? He's got some great songs with amazing beats. I'd suggest Maad City, These Walls, Alright, Duckworth or The Art of Peer Pressure.
Pink Floyd had 3 famous albums???? Really??? What about Animals, Division Bell, A momentary..., Meddle, Atom Heart Mother, Final Cut. That is level Pink Floyd. Beyond galaxy. There are few groups that reach the stars, but they left galaxy.
It's a crime, that you don't sit down & experience this album ......from start to finish.....in its entirety. Not for those of us, who've done it a hundred times already......but for YOU. Listening to it, one track at a time & out of sequence......your missing out on all the subtle nuances & transitions. You're not getting the whole story. The same thing applies to 'Dark Side of the Moon'.....and 'Wish You Were Here'. It'll still sound good, but when you FULLY understand it.....
Roger Waters was such a great song writer and his lyrics are amazing. Gilmour is a great guitarist and has the better voice but the creative force of the band post Barrett was definitely Waters.
Roger Waters I heard left the band thinking he could do better on his own. Have you heard anything from Roger? Lol He did make a couple of albums but I don't think they did well. I think he took all the songs he'd written and they could no longer play them in concert (Allegedly) The band hated him after that especially David. The band said they'd speak to him when pigs fly. In one of their videos, they have a pig balloon flying high! Lol! After many yrs later, they did do a couple of concerts together and performed all their old songs. David joined the band when Syd Barrett who suffered a mental breakdown and became an addict left or was kicked out.. Syd was the one of the original band members. I think he started the group. Either Roger or Syd. Their early albums had a totally different vibe and to me weird. I don't like them but that's just me lol. Get the box set. They have ALL the albums, even from the beginning.
I wish people would not pronounce the word riff as if it had a t at the end of the word. What's that all about? A rift is a break not a musical phrase.
spoken of course from a guy who has never seen them live but I disagree 100 %. Their studio albums are far better. And I have heard all the LIVE stuff ! SORRY.
I love this song. I agree with your assessment that it sounds like depression and desperation.

Yepp..
While the music in this song is not really complicated, the lyric will totally kill you..
What a band.
It's not just a concept album, it's a movie soundtrack from a MUST SEE movie!

Pink Floyd - One of these days
As a kid (JHS & HS) 😁 this Album was EVERYTHING! 🤔 Then again so was The Beatles, Who, Zep, Rush, Bowie, Queen..... Concept Albums for days yo! 😂🍿🐰

next one from Pink Floyd - Coming back to life ( live Pulse 1994 ) or Marooned ( no lyrics . they win a Grammys for Marooned ) 😎👍✨🎶🙋♂️
Ah, if you think the album must be incredible, the movie would BLOW. YOUR. MIND.
The worms ate into his brain. Listen to the whole album start to finish then watch the movie.
The movie is awful. Waters hated the way it came out. And Bob Geldof, played Pink in the movie, hated Pink Floyd music.
I think the album version is the best Floyd version of this song. I don't think they really did it live much.
Definitely recommend Time by Pink Floyd or just the whole Dark Side of the Moon album
Try “Sorrow” from Pulse concert
Many people consider "Animals" to be their best album. So don't sleep on that! :D
Please do LET THERE BE ROCK LIVE AT THE RIVER PLATE AC/DC
Pulse was the name of the tour
The Final Cut is the follow up to The Wall and flows similarly. (Roger Waters is still with them in The Final Cut)
Agree with you
SHINE ON YOU CRAZY DIAMOND, TIME, ,MONEY. BREATHE, BRAIN DAMAGE, EMPTY SPACES/YOUNG LUST (both songs go together), MOTHER, or HIGH HOPES!!!!!!!!!!!!
Quote from Roger Waters: "Hey You is a cry to the rest of the world, you know saying hey, this isn't right; So, at the end of Hey You he makes this cry for help, but it's too late ... he's only singing it to himself, you know, it's no good crying for help if you're sitting in the room all on your own, and only saying it to yourself ".
