Sabina I think you will like these, maybe by now you've already seen them? Clare Torry "The Great Gig in the Sky" interview , ruclips.net/video/mIW7xZSlZoM/видео.htmlsi=gJj7iU9LUINPPPDS - Pink Floyd & Clare Torry (Live), ruclips.net/video/NAcDOpd0Lv0/видео.htmlsi=ApslYzARl1dbMQxX
One of the few, if not the ONLY time the human soul has been recorded.
Absolutely , and no one believes she was a white session singer
Never heard it put better!
I've always said that Floyd may not change your life, but they will change your soul. Cheers....
No, Eivor live is the only time. She goes beyond this. Listen to her song Wake Me Up live or anything else by Eivor. Eivor is pure vocal perfection and doesn't need a studio.
It could be argued that David Gilmour's ending solo in Comfortably Numb at The Pulse in '94 does the same.
Finally....someone is listening to the CORRECT version!!!!!!
I know it makes me cringe when somebody listens to the live versions because they are so inferior to the original
@@firecracker187 Someone has been going around to all the reactors pushing the live version because there has been a ton of reactions to it lately.
lame. I dunno. I'm bias to original.. She went in there and pulled that off without suggestion on her own.So I just feel like everybody's attempt to copy her as lackluster
@@bossfan49.
Great gig in the sky means dying going to heaven. The song depicts a person dying. First anger and refusal, then negotiating then acceptance then finally passing away into the ether. If you listen to the whole album this just fits in with the entire theme
I am so glad that they finally gave Clare Torry a well deserved shared writing credit on this song. Imagine the song without her incredible melodies. And of course later versions with other singers owe so much to the raw soul she put into the original.
She sued them
@@betsyduane3461 Yes, successfully.
For me, one of the most beautiful tracks that Pink Floyd have ever produced…sung by a relatively unknown singer.. Clare Torry, and written by Richard Wright..Pink Floyds keyboard player. Clare was paid the standard rate for the day, around £25. She later sued for a bit more money, to reflect the global success of the album..The Dark Side of the Moon, which she succeeded in. Clare Torry never went out of the road with Pink Floyd, and so couldn’t perform in a live concert environment. Many singers have been used for live performances, usually two or three per concert. Whilst the singers did a credible job, no one can match the sublime vocals of Clare, although I appreciate her performance was in a studio. This is one of those tracks that sends a shiver down my spine whenever I hear it..beauty personified. Thank you for this Sabina, together with the emotional reaction…which this song generates with most people.
Wow - thanks for sharing this backstory! I hope she got a bigger piece of the pie! Wel deserved, such an incredible performance!!
She actually did several live performances of 'The Great Gig in The Sky'. At London's Rainbow Theatre in November of 1973, Pink Floyd's 1990 concert at Knebworth, and with Roger Waters at some of his solo concerts. Thank you Sabina for your priceless reaction to this amazing Pink Floyd song!! 😀👍🥰
@@notsofast2539 That is certainly news to me. Thank you for the correction.
@@sabina1118 Clare both got a large back-payment AND co-writing credits for the track
The rest of PF didn't fight the suit, they recognised her contribution
@@sabina1118 She was paid 30 pounds. Time 1/2 (Sunday evening) .
Such a beautiful reaction. You get it. I had tears before she even began singing just because I knew what she was going to do . This is as live as a studio version will ever be . Somehow the live versions (exceptional as they are) are just good copies. . She must have blown them away. I bet they were speechless for a while. I always am . ❤
Thank you and well said. THIS HITS SO HARD ❤️
To think that she was embarrassed when she was finished. I'm in my 50's and my eyes swell every time I hear it.
Me too!
I heard the band members just looked at each other in surprise when she finished like, WTF?
Rachel Fury is the closest that I've heard to the first part. No cigar though. Clare can NOT be duplicated.
This could never be replicated live. It was a transcendental moment captured at the time. Great performances by the girls who have done it live but this is the one
Thank you for showing proper respect and not interrupting. Anyone who would interrupt Pink Floyd will never get it.
I'm in my 60's. This is and always be my favorite song on my favorite album by my favorite band. Like you said, it speaks directly to your soul, without any words - just pure emotion. It's timeless. It's gorgeous. It is life and death and everything in between.
Arguably the most unique composition in rock history. It exists as almost it's own genre.
YES
They are a genre of One.
Rick Wright
I weep whenever I hear this EXTRAORDINARY piece by Richard Wright and Clare Torry.
Hi Sabina! It's my understanding this track was a representation of the different stages of grief. Anger and denial at first, sadness then acceptance. The different parts of the vocal performance gives me that feeling. The emotion of it all makes me tear up every time. Great reaction, love your whole vibe, cheers!
That makes so much sense!! Thanks for sharing! 🤩
This song was performed live at the funeral of Richard Wright, Pink Floyd's keyboardist, in 2008. Durga Mc Broom, a backing singer on the Pink Floyd World Tour, was asked by Rick Wright to do this during his lifetime. As I am in personal contact with Durga Mc Broom, she confirmed this to me. Unconfirmed, however, is the fact that she was accompanied by Jon Lord, keyboardist of Deep Purple, on the piano during the performance.
Actually it's not grief but death. Close
The live versions were only trying to replicate what Clare Torry, an English studio vocalist had improvised. She didn't even know she was on the album until later, when she bought the album. She didn't get paid royalties as a composer until 2005. They just told her not to use words.
Until 2005?? Wild
@@sabina1118 She sued to get composer status, and they settled out of court, so I guess she got years of back royalties as a 50% composer credit.
@@sabina1118here is Claire telling the story herself!!

@@-R.Gray- She was paid quite well and got every cent she agreed to under contract as a studio musician. Then she came back like 30 years later and tried to sue the band... the very people who put her on the map.
The reality is, she deserved ZERO... she had no case. She was WAY past any statute of limitations for that kind of contract dispute or lawsuit. But she was retirement age and needed the money, so the band agreed out of court to pay her. I would have told her to go jump in a lake. She should be ashamed of herself for dragging their names through the mud the way she did.
That's terrible she didn't get paid
The song is about dying. Anger, denial, regrets, acceptance and surrender...
Totally unique and spontaneous. One of those unbelievably rare moments when the cosmos alligns which can never again be recreated. As someone commented ,she caught ligtening in a bottle.
One of the most beautiful songs in the history of Rock music. Ciao Ciao beautiful Sabina
Indeed 🌸
She was told to express the stages of grief without words and wow did she nail it or what. As good as the other three singers were ,they just didn't have the soul
Best rock album of all time. Lyrics, composition, editing, subject, art... on and on and on. There absolutely is no substitute. That's the reason it remailed on top 100 albums charts for 11 straight years week after week.
Love how you present your comments without interrupting the song.
The inimitable Clare Torry, renown in the sixties for her jazz and soul improvisations, and as a superb session musician
It is astounding that, after listening to this sublime piece of music, people are squabbling about money. Pink Floyd got rich, she got rich, her art is admired by millions for half a century and we are all enriched by being allowed to hear it.
"It feels like she is speaking a language only the body understands." is a perfect statement!!
Claire sang it live with Floyd at Knebworth 1990. Love your reactions.
I was there and blown away although McCartney overrun!?!?
Clare Torry's vocals are to represent the 5 stages of grief mourning: Denial, Anger, Bargaining, Depression, Acceptance. She improvised the entire vocal portion and she basically just let it rip.
Also, Claire Torry's vocal is astonishing, but the chord progressions that Rick Wright plays (and wrote) on piano are unique. He was the soul of Pink Floyd.
Well since I'm a fan of Pink Floyd, I'm hanging out with you 😊
Yay! Always makes me happy to see you here, Joshua! 🤗❤️✌️
@@sabina1118 🥰
@@sabina1118She is Clare Torry. This is her talking about that amazing piece in music history. "I have often wondered if it was the devil grinning up at me, or God smiling down on me." Might have been both, knowing that Waters calls it "a happy accident." ruclips.net/video/XJzatfNQf4g/видео.htmlsi=q3cOnms2FF1eT7BN
It gets me everytime ! Even though i ve listen to it since it came out in stores the first day ! That day, i listened most of the day in my room ! took my friends 1 hour to come and join me ! we smoked hash in my big water pipe ! lol, ya ! one of the best song on this Dark side of the Moon Vinyl Album ! wish i had all those vinyl albums, but i don t ! thanks for reading my comment Take care ....from a retired 67 years old french Canadian trucker ! lol 🤠
Glad you enjoy it! 🤗
You brought back memories of us getting the album as soon as released, went over to my friend's house and were floored by what we were hearing, smoking the good stuff for that album, great times!
The first time I heard this at 10 y.o. I knew it was important but i didn’t understand it. The first time I made love to my wife I finally got it. When i held my mom’s hand as she passed away I heard it, and now I cry every time I hear it.
- the versions performed since the original feel like attempts to replicate, understandably. Thanks for surfacing a miracle for others.
Great reaction Sabina.
The three vocalists did a commendable job on the live version. The song being split into 3 parts.
Clare Torrey ( Studio version )
Sang the entire song in one or 2 takes. Each take was sang without a pause.
She was only 25.
Very impressive.
Keep up the great work you are doing.
It raises a smile when I get a notification of a new reaction from you. ❤
And she improvised it as she sang it!
You listen to Floyd with your soul not only with your ears. She did that improvised recording in 2.5 takes put her coat on and went home as she didn’t feel she could offer anymore without repeating herself
The song that says nothing, but means everything !
When I was a kid the older kids called this song the "The Great Orgasm in the Sky".
😂😂😂😂
I've always heard the freedom of the performer in this version rather than the constraints of the live versions. Even when Clare Torry has performed this live, she resonates imitation rather than the raw and unchained emotion of the original version. Peace/JT
Yeah!
“I am not afraid to die. Any time will do, I don’t mind. Why should I be frightened of dying? There’s no reason for it - you’ve got to do it sometime.” - Gerry O’Driscoll
(O’Driscoll was the doorman at the Abbey Road Studios.)
Yeah the way I heard it Claire Torrey was asked to come into the studio and she laid down two different versions! She left and they didn't even tell her they were going to use her vocal on the album. She didn't find out til the album came out and she saw her name in the credits!
The studio version was a one-time performance. It can never be duplicated the same way twice, not even by Clare Torrey herself. Others have made valiant efforts, but they are all in vain. It's when you lay back with a good set of headphones on and totally mellow that you really feel it, and the entire Dark Side of the Moon album also.
Don't need subtitles. Don't need to understand a foreign language. Clare Torry is singing the human language. A lament on the human condition. Beautiful. Raw and beautiful.
The biggest difference for me between the studio version and the live version that you've already seen is that it took three singers in the live version to accomplish what just Clare Torrey by herself did in the studio version!!
And as you have just witnessed it was amazing and for me to this day still brings me to tears!!!
Yes, that speaks for itself!!
@@sabina1118 I tried to include this earlier but it seems perhaps my comment with this link did not make it through!! This is Clare herself explaining how this wonderful moment in history came about.
ruclips.net/video/mIW7xZSlZoM/видео.htmlsi=SnFleLo2NlRLN_xE
I have been listening to this (and the whole DSoTM album) frequently for over 50 years (when I was young, many times per week) - it never hits any less.
Hi Sabina. What a great reaction video! I'm a new subscriber, a 63 year young man that grew up with Pink Floyd music, and I love watching others discover them for the first time! I see you're no stranger to Pink Floyd music, so that's a plus. Can't wait to see what else you've reviewed. You felt that, obviously, and that's a great place to start this subscription! More please!
Thank you and welcome! ☺️🙌
OMG! It feels like she's speaking a language only the body can understand. That was a perfect description. Well said.
Rumor has it that Miss Clare was asked to vocalize the five stages of grief. If that’s true, she succeeded magnificently. And supposedly, she nailed it on this first take. They asked her to do a couple more, but in the end they used that first take on the album.
It’s so weird, I’m a big tough guy, and every time I hear this I seem to get something in my eye.
😂😂
Claire didnt even know she was on the record until she saw it in a shop. They paid her 30 british pounds for the studio work. She said they gave her no feedback when she finished. There is a good video interview with CLaire Tory about this song..Good to watch
Clare Torry was driven to the studio in her slippers to an unscheduled session and came out with this, following a false start where she articulated actual words, before Richard Wright I believe, told her to just sing wordlessly. It is a true one off, a great moment in recorded music.
It's what they call lightning in a bottle. They gave her the inspiration of stages of grief/dying and she nailed it. IIRC she apologized for her first take which is completely wild.
Remember. This is 1973. We had headphones in the dark. It hit like a truck.
The live version is great and they are great singers, but you gotta give credit to Clare Torry for doing the original and what a job she did.
She was hired for a session and was paid a days wages. As a session musician doing lot's a work for different albums it wasn't strange that she wasn't involved further or notified etc. She did her job on the day, got paid and moved on. The difference was that this happened to become one of the most famous and successful albums of all time.
Copyright wasn't as well known to everybody then as it is now, leading to many situations where people are being taken advantage off in that business. Pink Floyd had that happen too, and sadly they could given Torry her financial dues earlier, but Torry had to go claim it decades later. They settled out of court.
The atomic difference between the studio and live versions is that before Claire, there was nothing. She created that vocal live on the spot and in the moment, and everyone afterward had her template to follow
When art is both dark and uplifting, vulnerable and powerful, weighty and light as a feather. When it cries out the wordless language of the human soul, taking us high in flight and allowing us to release our tribulations to the stratosphere, letting them fall where they may, or continue into outer space. When it then returns us gently and safely to terra-firma, exhausted but somehow cleansed, thrilled and enriched. That is truly transcendent art. Just subscribed. Beautiful reaction. Thank you.
One has to grow up to things. Like eating olives, drinking whiskey etc. Over the years, I myself grew up to humble opinion that this song is the BEST of the entire album. BTW, her voice can be heard like some divine seasoning, spice across many other songs, including intro. Do the whole album. Best if in the dark night / room. I did it with headset in Norway, lying in snow on my back with aurora borealis crossing with Milky Way. Unforgettable.
PS. On live version, they had to hire three ladies, here there was only one - Clare Torry who was left alone in the studio. No band around...
This is only the second reaction I've watched from you, but what an iconic iconic performance, and I love the way that you seemed knowledgeable musically and emotionally, and are really really able to pay attention to it.
And then your observations at the end were quite thoughtful and just really nicely delivered. Music to my ears.
This is the music of my youth, but as a musician and composer and whatever else of many decades, I still love how amazing this performance was. From an absolutely legendary album as well. Dark Side of the Moon is one of those albums that more or less tells a story with the sequencing? But mostly, everything on it is astounding and immersive in one way or the other.
If it wasn't for Clare Torry none of the other live concert singers would have a song to sing. The best they can do is imitate, but nobody has made a more unique, powerful and better version.
Clare said that it was just another session and she didn't really know what it was all about so she vocalized the emotions suggested on the cards shown to here in the studio. She didn't think it would end up on the final recording and was shocked to her it in a record shop after release. Little did anyone know the impact of a little known session singer would make to music history
This Album is the BEST IN SPACE TIME, and is intended and written to be listened as a whole, with no cut (but after this one and before Money -> you had to turn the disc...).
Try it, in one run, it's a cosmic experience, you will never feel something like this on another album, and the more you listen to it, the best it become, even YEARS and YEARS of listening to it. I must have listened to this album like tens of thousands of time in my life (literally: many times per day, every days, for MANY MANY years...). And I still listen to it regularly, and cry each time.
IMO, the greatest vocal performance EVER!!!
The live version is amazing (and I was there) but they used three singer to duplicate what Clare Torry did with her one voice. Further, as you noted, she created it all, raw emotions and all. Anyone else after this is simply copying what she brought forth from her heart and soul. You can literally hear the cries of denial, anguish, self-examination and, finally, sad acceptance. Clare Torry's original studio creation has a life of its own. It speaks to us on the deepest levels of our psyches.
If you are referring to the 1994 Pulse concert, it seems to me, at least judging from the relevant video, that it cannot even be said that the three choristers have "duplicated", "copied" Clare Torry's studio performance, having rather "imitated" it.
And they did it with great skill, let's be clear!
But, as someone said, "The second rate ones imitate, the great ones steal"
You were there?? Lucky you..
This is one of the few songs that need to be listened to and it’s original form before you listen to live versions because they are just interpretations of the song and some of them. Their own personal interpretations of this piece of music was a once in a lifetime, lightning strike, I think it was done on the first or second cut. They explained to her what it was about. She poured her heart and soul into it and now we have this magnificent piece of music for all time. There are videos out there of Claire Tori, talking about the recording of the song it’s a must watch.
Good music sounds good, great music touches the soul!
Although I can’t disagree with your views on live performances, I would always listen to the original first because when you have something to compare it to you will be even more blown away 😎
PS. Brilliant that you don’t pause, love it 👍
The version that wound up on the album was the second attempt. In the first, Clare used a word, so she was asked to redo it with no words. And she did improvise this in one shot.
Edit: This is the only song I can think of where I always recommend the studio-version first. Personally, I prefer hearing how an artist wanted it to sound with the studio version, and then seeing how they adapt it to live-versions.
Claire Torrey is the standard by which all performances of this song is measured.
Any singer who takes on 'The great gig in the sky,' has a huge job ahead of them.
Claire Tory certainly left her mark on the world with this.
I heard this at a Funeral as the coffin lowered. It had such an effect on everyone.
Even the crusty Funeral director was moved.
I absolutely love being able to watch and hear young people reacting to music that blew me away when I first heard it. Thank you for this reaction to one of the most beautiful songs ever, you totally get it!
You're right, it's a healing song!
Welcome to Clare Torry. She is co-writer of this song along with Rick Wright. No one can touch this version. Glad you finally heard it.
I love live shows too, but this original recording of The Great Gig In The Sky is the best version.
I love the idea of "goosebums" in your subtitles. The word is goosebump ... theyr'e little bumps on your arm. But goosebums made me smile. A bum is something else :)
Amazingly enough it is said that she did this in just 2 takes....the band had already recorded the music and as she was vocalizing, they held up signs asking for specific emotions and she sang them. It's truly a classic.
Only Floyd could come up with this concept and she pulled it off brilliantly! It so completes Time, the song before it. The fist time I saw it live in 75 the young ladies near us started crying, we were all freaked out. Pink Floyd was impossible to top, live or studio, they are at the apex of musical achievement and experience for me.
@@vicprovost2561 I saw them twice at Madison Square Garden....once in 75 and in 78 on the animals tour.....the giant pig is still etched in my memory.
Many of the live versions are very good....But this is the real deal and seems to be able to transmit so much more feeling...
FYI- she did 2 1/2 takes on a Sunday evening, no rehearsals. It was improvised by her on the spot. She was payed 30 pounds.
Great reaction, you get it!
I hope to see you do more Pink Floyd music, their compositions speak to a person's soul, they transcend Prog Rock and take the listener on a cerebral journey.
It's not true that this recording was done in one take, Pink Floyd used parts of 3 different takes to make the final studio version released on the album. Also, the singer Clare Torry actually created ALL the wordless vocals in this song herself, and she was given complete rein by the band with only a couple of parameters.
First and foremost was absolutely No words, after that she was pretty much on her own.
"The Dark Of The Moon" album is mostly about Life and Death, and with that comes Money, War, Insanity, Time on earth, etc. "The Great Gig In The Sky" is the Death part.
Clare Torry left the studio that day with her 30-pound payment, thinking her vocals would not make the final album cut! But it did and the album is one the bestselling albums of all time, to date the album has sold over 60 million copies, and counting.
The album also holds the record for the most weeks on Billboards Top 100 Albums of All-time list at 988 weeks,..... that's over 18 years on the list! No other artist albums have even half that total!
Over the years, Clare Torry seemingly seeing all this success was not quite happy with her 30-pound payment. In 2004 she sued Pink Floyd and EMI for a half share of the royalties, (50% share, shared with Rick Wright, the author of the music), for essentially authoring the wordless vocals.
She actually won her suit, but Pink Floyd settled with her out of court for an undisclosed amount. (Probably $$$$$$).
It's a universal song, it doesn't have many lyrics, so anyone who speaks any language can listen to it
Great reaction, Sabina. I'd like to recommend a beautiful gem from early Pink Floyd that is often overlooked: Cirrus Minor (studio version). Its delicacy and sheer ethereality is something to behold.....
Yes, they have great stuff reactors never try, bravo!
the greatest song ever written and it has no lyrics
Goosebumps Sabina Goosebumps….
Clare Torry's performance in the studio was pure improvisation, whereas the live performances, while good, simply lack the spontaneity of the original riff. Clare's brilliant performance came directly from a creative and musical mind... the whole thing was like catching lightning in a bottle!
One day, at the beginning of the 70s, I was alone in a friend's basement room. He had the best stereo system I had ever heard. He had given me two Pink Floyd albums and then left me alone with them. I lay on the bed and listened to these albums with headphones. That was my entry into a new world. I was 12 and didn't know much about music. Right from the start, Pink Floyd catapulted me into another universe. I was totally high - without drugs (later a good mix). One of the absolute highlights was "The great gig in the sky". When Clare Helen Torry started to "sing" it blew all my synapses. I was really shocked. To this day. Today I'm 64 years old and my eyes are filled with tears. Today I understand the whole song. And I realized that my time will also come to an end at some point.
"And I am not frightened of dying, any time will do, I don′t mind
Why should I be frightened of dying?
There's no reason for it, you′ve gotta go sometime
If you can hear this whispering you are dying
I never said I was frightened of dying" 💖☯☮
I got myself high without drugs or substance a lot of times. I still get with a lot of Pink Floyd's stuff. I have no doubt this music came out from the sky (heaven) and God was guiding her on every single sound that Claire's throat put out that day .
If you listen very closely right at the end you can hear the moment when the tape runs out.
You should check out the interview the singer (Clare Torry) gave and you'll get to know just how raw the recording was and definitely much better than the live version which took 3 singers to copy her.
My dear, On the album this track comes after te track: Time, wich is about living and The great Gig is about dieying. The two songs are one total experience...
And of course it is very nice to follow your comments.
Agree and the album is a total experience.
This version is perfection. Riffing on a very open moody backing track with some vague suggestions of what was wanted and just making it her own heart and soul.
It's not jazz scatting in the traditional sense. Its its own thing, just raw emotion.
Props to Richard Wright's keyboard sensibilities for setting the stage, he doesn't get credited enough for what he brings to the Pink Floyd sound.
Pink Floyd albums are so crafted and replayable that live versions come across to me less concise and a little diluted the more there fill a song out.
I can imagine a curtain amount of reverence and trepidation getting to do this track live, but you can only do it the best you can being yourself.
I promise you, every Floyd live sounds great..... and every studio version will sound even Better. It will happen every time. It is so cool to have this band kill it on stage yet have the fully refined and highly controlled studio PERFECTION.
Agree, because every Pink Floyd album was conceived and birthed in the studio. The studio is its mother, its father; its crib and its dirt embraced bones.
It's a GREAT version. 😀
My favorite piece
No offense to the ladies in the live version, because they did an awesome job, but it took 3 of them to do what Clare did alone.
Music is the sound that feelings make and this song sounds like all of them. It will play when I am laid to rest.
In this case, and because it is an improvisation, there is no way the other versions be better. There is only one authentic version, and it is this one.
excellent choice that song is almost hypnotic.the whole album is great n so is there wall album so alot to listen to enjoy they have quite the library of work so until next time be well ✋👍
This was liked way before the music started!🏴
Yes, words are hard to find that conveys how this speaks to and impacts the listener. Almost leaving us wondering how we heard what we just heard.
Every singer AFTER Clare Torry had a road map.... She made the map.... where there was none. Lightning!
Been loving this since it came out, Still get goosebumps to this day
THE best vocalization ever! The great Clare Torrey will never be matched.
It's like an exceptional emotionally filled guitar solo!!!
Uno cierra los ojos, y es que es un viaje dentro de uno mismo. Así como todo el disco. Tal vez mi disco favorito. Y valla que he escuchado muchos a través de los años.👍👍👍🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
I really enjoy the drums in this song
Deeply beautiful. Where sorrow and beauty intersect.
A song about the human condition in a brutal, blazingly hot crowded and mercilessly cold empty universe.
We are born. We die. It’s a miracle.❤
Music written by Rick Wright (Keys) for a movie which the director didn't like. The word GIG replace the original word God. As Roger said that when the Beatles said they were more popular than God cause a lot of backlash. Roger is also an atheist
Clare Torry is indeed what you should hear. She is the creator as she improvised on the spot at the studio. To listen to a different performer is to listen to an imitation. Clare's performance is incredibly intimate. Additionally, you need to know that music from this era was NEVER meant to be watched but only heard. The studio mixing is of extreme importance and was an art in and of itself. It's meant to be listened to with headphones, with all the concentration on the song and NOT any visuals. It is an aural experience. Especially with Pink Floyd.
