P.S. You've already heard the 3rd best-selling album in history, Dark Side of the Moon. It also holds the record for most weeks on the Billboard Album Chart, at close to 1000 weeks. That's almost 20 years! They had 10 top 10 US albums, 5 of them number 1 albums, including Wish You Were Here. You're about to hear another one, in The Wall. Which also happens to be the biggest selling double album of all-time! In terms of album sales they're the 4th or 5th biggest in history. Level pegging with Led Zeppelin and only behind The Beatles, Elvis and Michael Jackson. You've discovered one of the all-time greats. Pink Floyd are commonly recognised as being one of the most talented, most successful, most innovative and most influential music acts there has ever been! :)
your´s is the perfect choice. ANIMALS complete next (DOGS on that album might be their greatest song of all), then THE WALL complete. BUT here´s a suggestion: on THE WALL you´ll find a song called COMFORTABLY NUMB - it´s one of their greatest songs and in live-versions it has the arguably best rockguitar solo of all time. that´s why you should listen to this one song (COMFORTABLY NUMB) in a live version, take LIVE PULSE 1994. trust! :-)
This is gonna sound sappy, but here goes... I've kept my love for Pink Floyd to myself for years. Didn't think anyone else in any numbers felt the same way as I did when hearing their music. You know, the chills, the memories, the wandering thoughts, et al. Seeing a younger generation experiencing the same does my old cynical ass good. Thank you. Send more!
Closet Floyd fan, that makes me sad, because most everyone I know and grew up with were Floyd fans. I grew up in the 70s so I guess I was at ground zero when Floyd's music dropped. We would buy the albums, when they were released, put them on the turn around time table, put on the earphones, close our eyes, and go on a head trip.
@@tarynclark8011 - It's a joke saying that the album is, "ahead of its time". The idea is that time travel will be discovered in the future at the same time this album is recorded, and they will travel back through time to release album in 1975.
I listen to my iPod at work, and I have the entirety of Meddle, Darkside of the Moon, Wish You Were Here and The Wall on there, so when my headphones go quite I know that a Pink Floyd song is about to start, I just don't know which one.
That’s David Gilmour on lead guitar. He’s got an amazing singing voice too, as you can hear. If more people would listen to this music, I think there might be world peace. And it’s OK if you cry, bro! I’ve been listening to Pink Floyd for 50 years and it still gives me goosebumps.
q1ffaay probably doesn’t sound like Roger Waters playing the guitar, because it’s not Roger Waters playing the guitar. It is David lol. Roger played the bass and sang
q1ffaay well it’s both, with Roger singing songs like Welcome to the Machine and Shine On You Crazy Diamond, and David doing Wish You Were Here. Roy Harper did Have a Cigar.
I too was mostly a hip hop/rap fan until I listened to both of these Pink Floyd albums. It changes your life man...now I listen to rock more than any other genre
Syd Barrett was a founder member, who named the band in the late 1960s. He was a great fan of old school, black blues and in his record collection there were two musicians, Pink Anderson and Floyd Council. As a homage, Syd named the band after them.
As a huge fan of your reactions I just wanna quickly remind some of the commenters something important. He doesn't skip the music at all in real time while listening or recording his reaction. He simply edits some of the parts out for the video because he doesn't want RUclips copyright to take his video down. Lastly I just wanna say thank you bro for these reactions seeing you fall in love with Pink Floyd puts a smile on my face and warms my heart real shit! Best reactions on RUclips by far dude!!!
Same here! 1: Animals, 2: DSotM, 3: WYWH, 4: Meddle, 5: The Wall ... Dogs, Pigs and Sheep are just so profound, so brilliant, so relevant, more so than ever. Life changing stuff.
The beginning of the song Wish You Were Here is meant to sound like a guy listening to the radio and then starts playing along to it. Everything they do is genius.
I loved your reaction(s). That's exactly how I feel every time I listen to Pink Floyd. And if you don't cry once in a while when listening to them then you're made of stone. Peace
This album is about absence. Shine On You Crazy Diamond is a tribute to their former bandmate and childhood friend, who became absence from this world after a combination of schizofrenia and excessive use of Lsd. He was on the first album. Welcome To The Machine is about being crushed by all the politics in life. The machine is life. Have A Cigar is about how an artist is used by the record industry. And the line "And by the way, which one's Pink" actually happened. It's sung by a artist called Roy Harper who happened to be there, because the engeneer didn't like Waters or Gilmour's singing. Wish You Were Here is about being absence from the person you want to be. A reminder that you should take thr risk and accept a "walk on part in the war", instead of the safe, easy and numbing "lead role in a cage".
People have to stop saying things like no way this album was made in 1975 it should have been made in 2019. Music in the 70s was far more complex than music today and there were many more great musicians then. Groups like the Moody Blues ELP the Grateful Dead the Who the Moody Blues Zeppelin Steely Dan the Beatles and many others along with Pink Floyd were putting out far more complex and and powerful albums then are coming out today.Today much of the music is computerized or auto synced. Everybody had to be competent in there instruments to perform back then. Going back even further then the 60s or 70s jazz was even more complex then classic rock so the idea that great musicians of the 70s should've been playing now is sorry to say ass backward. Most of the competent groups or musicians of today should've been playing back then.Just ask John Mayer currently touring with the Dead or Warren Haynes and Derek Trucks who both toured with the Allman Brothers
Id argue that music today is far more diverse and complex than ever in history. Just because the most popular songs are simple doesn't mean all of today's music is. Trust me of you want some good music and complex music go find it. I've done it and found some incredibly amazing stuff.
I’m pretty sure he meant in terms of how well the music was mixed and the audio quality, given that at the time, studio technology would have been lesser than it is today
That’s not why people say it’s ahead of its time, it’s the fact that this sound wasn’t a thing until Pink Floyd came along, and they created tropes we still use in today’s music and nothing has ever sounded like this since
Another elitist idea tbh, music today is as good as its ever been. You’re comparing one of the greatest bands in history to pop music. Nobody can argue albums like to pimp a butterfly, a moon shaped pool, in rainbows, forest hills drive, my beautiful dark twisted fantasy, trilogy and even stuff from glass animals or alt j aren’t amazingly complex modern masterpieces. The computer is an instrument and a difficult one at that: try to get good at mixing and making tunes with one, listen to those albums, then come back and say the same thing you said here. It’s rose tinted at best and just plain wrong at worst.
Hey man, checking in 5 years later, letting you know your work is still out there and I enjoy and appreciate it! I am not sure if you have continued this experience in music (i see you arebstill an active content provider, but what I mean is) you clearly have one if those brains and bidies that is wired to feel music in what I call a spiritual way, emotional and body combined.
Your reactions are splendid!!! There will never be another band as great as Floyd imo. They lyrics are deep no fillers or meaningless dribble. And the music speaks for itself all these years later and decades and decades to come.❤️
@@jorgegonzalez3393 He was making a point that when you're older (like in your 60s-70s) you'll understand the lyrics meanings more maturely, it has nothing to do with generations... moron.
Pink Flyod is SUPER prophetic. As a fan from decades ago ... I felt this message in the time that I heard it but now in this time understand how relevant this is ... Do we belong to the machine? Or something much deeper ...
I'm 61. I remember having that virgin joy of listening to great music for the first time. I envy you....i haven't felt it in so many years. Great reaction
What next? Try "Echoes" (one entire side of the album "Meddle"), and for David Gilmour's legendary guitar solo (many cite it as the best ever) try the live version of "Comfortably Numb" from PULSE.
Its so fantastically phenomenal that your soul dips into the clouds with this. I am so enthused at your reactions. You know the art is real when 40 years later it still grabs your heart, makes your mind go off into far places, and touches your soul. Long live floyd!
Just subscribed man. Every time I hear that synth, I am always am weirdly reminded of the movie Blade Runner for some reason. Wish you were here is my favorite Pink Floyd album. Dark Side of the Moon is my second. Someone I was very close to, used to play music with me and our warm-up song was wish you were here. 2 years ago to this day, he took his own life with a .45 We started our journey with Pink Floyd through their album and movie The Wall, like a lot of people have. These artists have touched a part of my soul that no other band could and I am forever grateful. P.S. RIP Syd
Shine on you crazy diamond is a very touching composition. It’s about syd barrett, a former band mate who had to leave the band due to terrible drug addiction that ruined him. It’s even more powerful when you know that its about that
I love that you love this! Music that can reach you and your soul and connect you with other people is magical. I grew up with this and am happy to see your reaction.
The name of The band was chosen by founder member, Syd Barrett. He was a great admirer of old school, black blues musicians, Pink Anderson and Floyd Council, so named the band after them.
kentlyone ......I agree with everything you just said......Animals and The Wall.....must do. good call on the Rush......that will open a different door.
"Ain't no way this was made in 1975" - you haven't even scratched the surface of all the good music made back in the 60s and 70s. Although Pink Floyd is about as good as you can get, but lots of good stuff back then :P
So glad I could live this experience again through you, hearing this album for the first time changed the way I look at music completely. Another album that did the same thing is “Ok Computer” by Radiohead.
A direct shout out KA TV... To experience Pink Floyd in their total glory is to hear and see them live!! However sadly that time has mostly passed other than an older DVD Concert. There is a way to cheat time itself with modern technology and Pink Floyd's Greatest "Touring Fans" that formed a band (* I'll be leaving a link). "Brit Floyd" (a second generation offshoot of The Australian Pink Floyd Show; formed in 1988) which is a story for another time. Anyway, yes, Brit Floyd is a tribute band but all PF members signed off on these guys as being more phenomenal than a TRIBUTE BAND... bringing the "live" Pink Floyd Show front and center... in 2018 and beyond!! Disclaimer: The members of Pink Floyd can never EVER be outshined but these guys bring total respect and their tribute to the one and only Pink Floyd (playing the songs EXACTLY like the albums)... Amazing!! Sadly, they too are getting older. Enjoy this show!! I know without a doubt you will want to put this on full screen and plan for a night in... this show is some of the best Floyd songs... 2 hours and 14 minutes of pure bliss (recorded live) = ruclips.net/video/Z_yibRal4mI/видео.html - - ** Pink Floyd History: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pink_Floyd
YO YO YO YO Ive been listening to Pink Floyd....since 1973...............Shine on you Crazy Dimond.....is about Syd Barret.....one of the founders of Pink Floyd.....
You really need to watch/listen to Pink Floyd’s live ‘Pulse’ album. It’s the best live performance ever. The guy on lead guitar is David Gilmore, he’s one of the top guitarist of all time.
Shine on you Crazy Diamond - BTW was all about Sid Barrett - as were almost every song on every album before "Animals" - Sid was the original genius..... who got lost in drugs... and mental issues - he has a few songs of his own .. one of my favorite stories is how he used to play a song he called "do you get it yet?" -- the joke was that the song was never the same... it was whatever he felt like playing.. so people would "request" that song.. not knowing what it would be...
Guys, ever heard of copyright? Reactors have to skip sections of albums or the algorithms kick them out. Get kicked three times and you get banned. Keep this in mind...
@@dan.j.boydzkreationz I've watched hundreds of reactions and when I watch Pink Floyd specifically it seems that Pink Floyd don't care about copyright and rectors show full, no skip reactions with zero consequences
I’ve been a Floyd fan for fifty years. Most groups wrote songs that are three to five minutes for radio play. Pink Floyd did not write songs for radio. They wrote albums. If you want another “album song”, try Jethro Tull’s Thick as a Brick. The whole album is one song.
Pink floyd the wall is a masterpiece. The movie is intense and moving. Be prepared for an emotional roller coaster. Glad someone told you about 70's rock/metal. It's been the soundtrack to most of my life. With good reason. Have fun exploring.
24:33 lol. That was all of us the first time. For me, stoned in the dark in high school in the 90’s. What a journey. Share it with your friends. Soon you’ll want a guitar. Enjoy!
Don't worry about showing emotional when it's real. Pink Floyd will make you feel, that's why we love them. The song WYWH is a staple for memorials and similar events.
I grew up listening to them (among other bands) because they're one of my dad's favourites. Became like a common ground for us throughout life, still is to this day. The track Wish You Were Here is very near to my heart now, as it played on my childhood best friend's funeral 2 years ago.
So beautiful to watch somebody experiencing this for the first time. I was 12 when it came out and it's been with me every step of the way ever since - through all the wonderful highs and terrible lows. I've smoked, tripped, made love, cried and everything else to this wonderful piece of art and it's great to know that it's still being discovered by new ears nearly 50 years on. Dark Side Of The Moon and The Wall are also fantastic but this is number ONE. Peace.
It's great to see you getting so much enjoyment from PF. My strong advice would be to listen to 'Animals' album next and not skip ahead to 'The Wall', this way you get to experience the development of PF chronologically.
Yo man pink Floyd is definitely one of the best bands ever, they are my second fav, for me led zeppelin is always gunna be the best for me though u should check them out listen to you shook me, dazed and confused & since I've been loving you.
I am so glad you listened to these albums with headphones on the first time. It's the best way to pick up all the nuance and instruments. PC speakers, phones, tablets and others will never do them justice.
Floyd will change ur life , or Perspective, if u can appreciate it... I almost named My son Syd, however, it was too sad... ur gonna totally dig whats still to come :-) ... Syd was the crazy diamond.. as u read, he’d been wild & used lots of psychedelics, it was the 60’s when they started. He was the leader! To see his demise, which is well documented was horrifying & fast. To know he spent most Of life & the remainder of it totally gone from his mind always hung heavy with the band... if u ever get in to grunge i wound up naming my son Layne after whom became my favourite artist ever; Layne Staley (Alice in Chains..).. loving ur reactions!
This song is dedicated to Syd Barrett, the first vocalist and one of the founding members of the band. He started taking too much LSD until one day he didn’t come down from the trip. He became insane so they had to let him go. This song is about him. The funny thing is that after he left the band, they didn’t see him for years and one day while they were recording his song he just showed up at the studio. They didn’t even recognize him at first. He didn’t know the song was about him and they asked him what he thought about it, and he just said. “It’s ok”
They set that man on fire on the album cover five times to get this picture!!!!!!!! Try doing an album reaction to Pink Floyd's "The Final Cut". It was the last album with Roger Waters still in the band.
David Gilmore is the guitar player. He has several solo albums. You may want to check them out too... Today's music doesn't have the heart that it used to back then. Today's artists are more concerned with money and not the substanance of the content. Music should evoke feelings. So glad young people are discovering different genres of music...
Oh, please revisit Pink Floyd!! I'd love to see your reaction to Sorrow from the Pulse concert, and if you're inclined One of These Days, also from the Pulse concert. Both rock hard and are epic af. ✌💗🖖
FANTASTIC reaction to a FANTASTIC album by a FANTASTIC/LEGENDARY band! Bruh, you simply MUST do a reaction to their album ANIMALS! It's more guitar oriented, but absolutely PINK FLOYD at their peak! (Along with Dark Side of the Moon and Wish You Were Here)

"Brit Floyd" (a second generation offshoot of The Australian Pink Floyd Show; formed in 1988) which is a story for another time. Anyway, yes, Brit Floyd is a tribute band but all PF members signed off on these guys as being more phenomenal than a TRIBUTE BAND... bringing the "live" Pink Floyd Show front and center... in 2018 and beyond!!
Disclaimer: The members of Pink Floyd can never EVER be outshined but these guys bring total respect and their tribute to the one and only Pink Floyd (playing the songs EXACTLY like the albums)... Amazing!! Sadly, they too are getting older.
Enjoy this show!! I know without a doubt you will want to put this on full screen and plan for a night in... this show is some of the best Floyd songs... 2 hours and 14 minutes of pure bliss (recorded live) = ruclips.net/video/Z_yibRal4mI/видео.html

** Pink Floyd History: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pink_Floyd
YO YO YO YO Ive been listening to Pink Floyd....since 1973...............Shine on you Crazy Dimond.....is about Syd Barret.....one of the founders of Pink Floyd.....
You really need to watch/listen to Pink Floyd’s live ‘Pulse’ album. It’s the best live performance ever. The guy on lead guitar is David Gilmore, he’s one of the top guitarist of all time.
*Gilmour
My spell check slipped past me again.
David Gilmour is the guitarist. Roger Waters is the bassist. Check out their solo work.
Shine on you Crazy Diamond - BTW was all about Sid Barrett - as were almost every song on every album before "Animals" - Sid was the original genius..... who got lost in drugs... and mental issues - he has a few songs of his own .. one of my favorite stories is how he used to play a song he called "do you get it yet?" -- the joke was that the song was never the same... it was whatever he felt like playing.. so people would "request" that song.. not knowing what it would be...
you are missing out on alot of detials without a real sound system,, ex. my whole house is vibrating from the bass in welcome to the machine.
Lead guitar is David Gilmour. Mick Mason on drums. Rodger Waters on base and 12 string. Rick Wright on Piano
Welcome friend! You've only just begun! Enjoy! ....
You should check out Comfortably Numb, Pulse version live. Also the album Meddle with Echoes.
Please don't skip, we all want to hear the whole thing with you my man. Great reaction, keep going!
skipped half of Dark side of the moon to. Can you imagin skipping through the wall?
Guys, ever heard of copyright? Reactors have to skip sections of albums or the algorithms kick them out. Get kicked three times and you get banned. Keep this in mind...
@@dan.j.boydzkreationz I've watched hundreds of reactions and when I watch Pink Floyd specifically it seems that Pink Floyd don't care about copyright and rectors show full, no skip reactions with zero consequences
He’s not skipping. He’s listening to the whole thing and then editing. So, chill. He wants to protect his channel.
@@skipwilliam5639 Bro he didn't skip lol he had to edit the video and cut some parts out because of copyright infractions
I’ve been a Floyd fan for fifty years. Most groups wrote songs that are three to five minutes for radio play. Pink Floyd did not write songs for radio. They wrote albums. If you want another “album song”, try Jethro Tull’s Thick as a Brick. The whole album is one song.
They never wrote albums they wrote 45 minute singles : )
You can really hear their blues influence on this album. Love that you appreciate the artistry and when you go hmmm
❤️❤️🙏🏾
Great reactions to the Floyd. Your enjoyment is entertaining and fulfilling to fellow fans. I’m with you on your journey
Bob James ❤️❤️❤️❤️
I still get chills 50 years later from their music new subscriber
Please react to Pink Floyd "Great Gig in the Sky" - so beautiful
THAT GUITAR YOU HEAR RECENTLY SOLD AT AUCTION FOR 3.3 MILLION AND IT ALL WENT TO CHARITY. GOTTA LOVE DAVID GILMORE.
Pink floyd the wall is a masterpiece. The movie is intense and moving. Be prepared for an emotional roller coaster. Glad someone told you about 70's rock/metal. It's been the soundtrack to most of my life. With good reason. Have fun exploring.
its really impressive to see how their music holds up nowadays, nearly 50 years later
the floyd prys your soul open like a manhole cover,,,,and you cant stop it
24:33 lol. That was all of us the first time. For me, stoned in the dark in high school in the 90’s. What a journey. Share it with your friends. Soon you’ll want a guitar. Enjoy!
Thank you so much for doing this.
The best rock music in the world was made back then bro. Grew up with this stuff. I, and so many others, were blessed
Don't worry about showing emotional when it's real. Pink Floyd will make you feel, that's why we love them. The song WYWH is a staple for memorials and similar events.
I love coming back to all your pink floyd reaction man!! Got tattooed this album on my foreharm
This is great. Thank you. So lovely x
Also react to the beatles. Their biggest albums are revolver, rubber soul, abbey road, sgt pepper and the white album
I grew up listening to them (among other bands) because they're one of my dad's favourites. Became like a common ground for us throughout life, still is to this day.
The track Wish You Were Here is very near to my heart now, as it played on my childhood best friend's funeral 2 years ago.
Pass it forward. Play on Pink Floyd. For ever.
So beautiful to watch somebody experiencing this for the first time. I was 12 when it came out and it's been with me every step of the way ever since - through all the wonderful highs and terrible lows. I've smoked, tripped, made love, cried and everything else to this wonderful piece of art and it's great to know that it's still being discovered by new ears nearly 50 years on.
Dark Side Of The Moon and The Wall are also fantastic but this is number ONE. Peace.
Awesome reaction. I look forward to watching the rest of your Pink Floyd Journey!
Dark Side is the longest standing album in the top 100 albums of all time to this day
The Wall is going to blow you away, 2nd best Pink Floyd album after Dark Side of The Moon
Haters gon hate. Do you, bruh! Just do you. Wanna cry to the music, no shame in that. You're only human.
Dan J. Boyd respect bro 💯✊🏾
love your reactions bro. we around the same age too and its the best shit i ever heard in a while.
"let it build up",,,,the floyd INVENTED that
They didn't 😊
This is an incredible reaction. Real shit!
Yes, the Animals album (1977) is next one up on the Pink Floyd catalog. Play that next (with the lyrics) and hold on to your f**king hat. Heavy.
You are right, no one can top Pink-Floyd.
Pink Floyd is not just a band, but a journey that stays with your soul for life!!
It's great to see you getting so much enjoyment from PF.
My strong advice would be to listen to 'Animals' album next and not skip ahead to 'The Wall', this way you get to experience the development of PF chronologically.
Dr.Morbius I got u 🙏🏾💯
Yo man pink Floyd is definitely one of the best bands ever, they are my second fav, for me led zeppelin is always gunna be the best for me though u should check them out listen to you shook me, dazed and confused & since I've been loving you.
I love watching you discover the masterpiece that is Pink Floyd. Just wait until you discover Zeppelin, Rush, and Metallica!
Zeppelin, Rush and Metallica?? Not even in the same hemisphere...in my opinion.
@@sandrasmith7501 They're all considered some of the GOAT's in the rock/classic rock world. Very different, but phenomenal.
@@scottsager440 You're right..absolutely! Sounded like a mother hen, didn't I, lol!
@@sandrasmith7501 No one cares
@@nachocheez9690 NO one, Keith?? Well, dang that hurts!!.
Welcome to the pink Floyd experience...now you know why pink Floyd is the greatest rock band ever
I am so glad you listened to these albums with headphones on the first time. It's the best way to pick up all the nuance and instruments. PC speakers, phones, tablets and others will never do them justice.
Floyd will change ur life , or
Perspective, if u can appreciate it...
I almost named My son Syd, however, it was too sad... ur gonna totally dig whats still to come :-) ... Syd was the crazy diamond.. as u read, he’d been wild & used lots of psychedelics, it was the 60’s when they started. He was the leader! To see his demise, which is well documented was horrifying & fast. To know he spent most
Of life & the remainder of it totally gone from his mind always hung heavy with the band...
if u ever get in to grunge i wound up naming my son Layne after whom became my favourite artist ever; Layne Staley (Alice in Chains..).. loving ur reactions!
Have A Cigar was the only PF song not sung by a PF member…. Roy Harper sang it.
Edit: there has been a version released that Roger Waters sings.
I always knew it was Roger singing on Great Gig in the Sky
@@ekrueger26 oooppps. I forgot that one. My mistake. I believe we all would agree Roger would sound horrible on Great gig!
My favourite album from that band! Great reaction!
we had it good in the70's
saw the Floyd in 75
This song is dedicated to Syd Barrett, the first vocalist and one of the founding members of the band. He started taking too much LSD until one day he didn’t come down from the trip. He became insane so they had to let him go. This song is about him. The funny thing is that after he left the band, they didn’t see him for years and one day while they were recording his song he just showed up at the studio. They didn’t even recognize him at first. He didn’t know the song was about him and they asked him what he thought about it, and he just said. “It’s ok”
They set that man on fire on the album cover five times to get this picture!!!!!!!! Try doing an album reaction to Pink Floyd's "The Final Cut". It was the last album with Roger Waters still in the band.
David Gilmore is the guitar player. He has several solo albums. You may want to check them out too... Today's music doesn't have the heart that it used to back then. Today's artists are more concerned with money and not the substanance of the content. Music should evoke feelings. So glad young people are discovering different genres of music...
It does, you just have to look a bit harder to find it. Scratch the surface and there’s so many amazing bands out there
Try watching Pulse, PF's live video from 1994...KILLER good!
The late great Syd Barrett was literally insane, But great art requires a broken mind.
Oh, please revisit Pink Floyd!! I'd love to see your reaction to Sorrow from the Pulse concert, and if you're inclined One of These Days, also from the Pulse concert. Both rock hard and are epic af. ✌💗🖖
FANTASTIC reaction to a FANTASTIC album by a FANTASTIC/LEGENDARY band!
Bruh, you simply MUST do a reaction to their album
ANIMALS!
It's more guitar oriented, but absolutely PINK FLOYD at their peak! (Along with Dark Side of the Moon and Wish You Were Here)
I’ve always wandered if they listen to their own music and get the same feeling that we do.
Liked, following, subscribed. Thank u and welcome to the family of Rock n Roll!
