@@geekymetalhead5112 King Gizzard and The Lizard Wizard is mostly a garage psych band but they have influences from prog, punk, thrash, stoner metal, and just about anything else that's out there. They're really incredible.
Great video but Pink Floyd definitely had a HUGE influence on rock n roll. They are one of the first prog bands and they're pretty unique. I'm pretty sure they contributed more than the eagles, billy joel etc
Pink Floyd is as much rock royalty as the Eagles, Stones, Metallica, McCartney and them (regardless if you like them or not). However Roger Waters alone did not have the massive success someone like McCartney after going solo. So I can see how Waters himself wouldn't be considered Btw great vid Mike :)
They fail to mention the amount of people who buy the shirts. Why do so many people buy Pink Floyd shirts? I don't get it, it's not even people who are fans of the band.
Depeche Mode rules. Really atmospheric and catchy songs. Their albums are masterpieces and flirts with prog and alternative. "Violator" is fucking incredible. In the last half of the 80s and first half of the 90s they were really artistic and consistently released solid top to bottom albums. A perfect nighttime drive band.
@@mathiaskjrgard5284 Thank you! Depeche Mode are amazing! Songs of Faith and Devotion is amazing as well. Dave Gahan and Martin Gore are a legendary duo.
I like Depeche Mode and I’m still shocked they were this high on the list! For me, listening to their songs is an almost meditative experience. The smooth, deep, and in a way robotic vocals plus the soft, spacey electronic instrumentation relaxes me like very little other music can while at the same time not being slow or boring (in my opinion anyway). Plus I really dig the spooky, ominous sounding melodies they use in a lot of their songs.
Albums sales or streaming hits don't mean a thing anymore. It's all about touring. These artists know that. We live in a world where everything is downloaded or listened to for free. They have to tour to survive in the industry.
Some people just look at the U.S. market. For instance, there was one article that said A-Ha was a dead band, yet that band played to 191,000 people in one night a couple of years after the article said the band was dead.
They've been touring for the last two years with enormous success. In 2017 they did a The Joshua Tree 30th Anniversary world stadium tour (I actually saw them) and last year they toured again with their most recent album, which in my opinion is dogshit. They're already in the same league as Paul Mccartney, The Rolling Stones and a very few more, in a sense that it has become irrelevant if they put up a new record, they're gonna instantly sell out any venue in the world regardless.
Depeche Mode's Violator is one of the best records of all time imo. Wonderfully produced, quite moody and ambiental, great lyrics and vocals. You should give it a try!
Dude, pink floyd is probably theeeee most important rock band ever. They pioneered prog and psychedelic genres, the concept album and were developing mixing technique back when most bands were releasing forgettable love songs. Show some respect.
I think it's also because of the halftime show of the superbowl from U2. It was a couple months after 9/11, America was down. And U2 lifted it up. When Bono shows the American flag under his sleave, it cries out emotion and hope for America after 9/11.
Been following you for a year. I love your honesty and opinions. I learned a lot and checked out groups I never would have without your insight. Thank you.
I think even back in the day when we were buying music on tape & CD, most artists were still making the majority of their money on tours & march. I can imagine with most music fans switching to streaming options these artists rely even more on touring. I'm happy to say I've started building a vinyl collection of my favourite artists. Loving it, it's so fun hunting around for stuff.
Concerning Depeche Mode, Violator and Some Great Reward are outstanding albums. I enjoy other albums from them to a lesser degree. My favorite song from Depeche Mode is "Never Let Me Down." It's a fun song to sing along with, and its message resonates. Gahan has an alluring, distinctive singing voice. Their music is catchy as hell. Strong melody and powerful vocals really help you feel the emotion of their songs.
Coldplay’s first four albums actually have tons of great songs on them. A lot of the people who shit on them do so because they’ve only heard their hits like Yellow, The scientist, fix you, and think those songs represent their whole discography.
Yes, you're definitely missing something not understanding why Depeche Mode is so popular. I sort of understand why you call them amalgamous. For me it's exactly that's what makes them special. Electronic, rock, ambient vibes often within a song coming together as a coherent musical message. Also they are catchy and unique at the same time which I like in music and is hard to pull off.
It's like porn. Trashy porn. Disgusting. Like seriously wtf is happening to the world. She literally looks like she is in the strip club dancing on him. It makes me feel sick
The song is mediocre, Offset demonstrates boringly average verses and lyrical skills. Cardi’s feature is also extremely inexcuting and average. The video, although it has some grotesque moments from Cardi, is technically pretty good. Seems like you’re being a little unnecessarily critical of it but I understand why you wouldn’t like it.
What I find sad about streaming is an artist could have billion of streams on multiple songs, but a any member of Pink Floyd could earn more off DSotM vinyl sales
love Ed Sheeran and I'm also a pop type of artist, but more in the style of his songs "Perfect" and "Thinking out loud". Notice how most of his music is centered around romance. He doesn't do heavy dark stuff, because he doesn't need to. It's talent and from the heart.
So the best way to be profitable now is to have thrived under the old economy. Yep I'm older, in my 40s, I used to rush down to physical stores to buy the latest release from my favourite band. and I used to lend it to my friends if it was good enough. They'd lend me their favourites, and we'd discuss them. Music now lacks an interpersonal connection and any effort to acquire it. It has become disposable. I'll go outta my way to see a band from my youth, will todays kids go outta there way to see an artist they like now? in 5 years, 10, 20? Who's gonna show up for a Cardi B show in 2039?
I've been new to this channel for a while now, and i must say I appreciate your content , I appreciate your channel bro , and I'm also a huge fan of Billy Joel too, favourite song has to be Vienna.
I think a "touring advance" these days is what a record advance was 20 years ago. It is given upfront to cover all costs of stage props, hotels, limos, what have you. Then you eventually have to pay your record company back if you did not make them enough money while touring.
Love your opinion of the list and you're absolutely right. If the artist/band that's on the list still gets radio or video airplay and still touring, they shouldn't be complaining about digital streaming and artists' rights.
A lot of them surprised me. I never heard or though about Pink anywhere for the past 10 years. PUFF DADDY? The last I heard of him is from Tourette GUy. AND ROGER WATERS?!? YEEEEEEEEEEEESSS!!! Don't get him wrong, he deserves it. He is touring WAY TOO MUCH for his age and his albums are stil very damn good. Also we know a good part of this money made is going to a lot of different good causes... And now COLDPLAY!?! WTF IS HAPPENING?
It is pronounced that when talking about the one in France. My grandfather was a native French speaker from Belgium and he pronounced the US college the way it was pronounced in the US. But we're from Pennsylvania we have a city that the way the citizens pronounce it he got mad because they pronounced it Lay trobe when he pronounced it the correct way Latrobe.
As far as Depeche Mode goes, I think a lot of people enjoy their stuff because of how it reaches a midpoint between industrial and synthpop. Some tracks are very accessible while others are more experimental. So, you have some riverheads who like them and you have the new wave movement liking them. Not to mention, some of their tracks are sort of ballady. My point is just that in terms of electronic music, Depeche Mode reaches into elements a lot of people are into.

I get why someone like Bruno Mars could get that money, i'll admit he puts a fun show, but I don't get the appeal on a ginger playing the guitar with a pedal loop
Depeche Mode is an odd one. I was a teenager in the 80s when they were big, but only like a few of their songs. But when I saw them live in L.A. around 2000-2002, it was a fucking amazing show. They entertain, they're loud, and their audience is energized. I never listen to DM, but that concert is one of my all-time favorites.
U2 is a filet mignon with a side dish of Ed Sheeran's half baked melody potato. Ed wishes he was a steak dinner like U2, but he's only a stinkin' potato.
Touring, touring merch, licensing deals to TV/Film has always been how musicians make their money. I've been an entertainment attorney for awhile, selling records and streams has never been a primary source of income. Before streaming, bands would get a big advance and pay it back through sales. It almost never got paid back from sales alone. The breakage fee alone kills any hope of getting cash beyond the advance from sales.
I've recently found your channel and really enjoy it! I was however surprised about your reaction to Depeche Mode. Check out their album "Songs of Faith and Devotion". It's epic.
26:30 this is why I own my music. Obviously I could get better recognition with a label; but knowing me I'll go fucking insane knowing that credit would be taken from me. Especially when I produce all my shit.
pink floyd is/was way more important than billy joel and the eagles and metallica lets be real here, they have an incredibly long history with many eras, all the way from 1966 with syd and his iconic writing style and innovations plus rick wright's beautiful and very cool (like in DSOTM) keyboards, to 70s gilmour with his impressive guitar and vocals. the rest all pale in comparison.
HOWEVER roger waters was the worst member and ruined the best members successes often times so i'm not saying he was the one who made the band, the wall wasn't close to being their best.
I think Michael Jackson should be at least an honorable mention, he's the most earning dead celebrity, maybe he's even richer than some of these people.
Im sure its been commented but the statement about u2 being american is because of there halftime show at the superbowl. Cheesy use by the writer, but I cant lie U2 fucking gave me chills for their performance

RUclips and social media in general is basically independent advertising at this point
Pink Floyd is Rock Royalty!!!! and specially for live events
pink floyd is/was way more important than billy joel and the eagles and metallica lets be real here, they have an incredibly long history with many eras, all the way from 1966 with syd and his iconic writing style and innovations plus rick wright's beautiful and very cool (like in DSOTM) keyboards, to 70s gilmour with his impressive guitar and vocals. the rest all pale in comparison.
HOWEVER roger waters was the worst member and ruined the best members successes often times so i'm not saying he was the one who made the band, the wall wasn't close to being their best.
Metallica > Pink Floyd
Pink Floyd is INCREDIBLY overrated
@@VarsityAthlete04 Pretty much
@@VarsityAthlete04 lol no.metallica never produced anything closed to something like shine on you crazy diamond
I think Michael Jackson should be at least an honorable mention, he's the most earning dead celebrity, maybe he's even richer than some of these people.
So basically The weekend's streams pulled in the numbers to his tours. Good
Im sure its been commented but the statement about u2 being american is because of there halftime show at the superbowl. Cheesy use by the writer, but I cant lie U2 fucking gave me chills for their performance
Like you cant say the eagles had more impact than pink floyd thats just.....nah dude
