Words can not describe how much legendary is this music, lyrics and the video. The idea of this song is now shaping the world in 21st century. Respect.
Saw this at 11 years old. It shocked me. Became a fan just like that. I'm seeing it now, again, with 30 years old, can't help but tear up when that solo comes out of nowhere. Its like all the rage repressed by the kids is finally free when that solo comes. When I saw Roger for the first time, there were kids on stage in this song, and when the solo comes they took off their jackets and they had a t shirt that said "fear builds walls". Couldn't stop crying til the end of the song.
My dad let me watch this when I was 6, and at the time I was still learning English/ didn't know what the song ment, and I sang it during class one day. I went to a Catholic school, I got my ass whooped.
Sadly, Roger is a Trump hater, so he doesnt understand that walls are also for PROTECTION against fear, and that FEAR can be warranted. He probably watched too much BBC domestically while living in a fenced off area himself. A cow that forgot what it was like 2b a calf...
I went to high school in America, and in 1978/79 was my freshman year. All through high school I suffered from manic depression. WAS never treated for it. This song represents exactly how I felt all through high school. Thanks. I am now 60, no longer depressed. I got help AFTER I graduated and went to college and got my first job AFTER college. I did start working when I was 13 years old and paying taxes. Which was a good thing, since I wound up disabled by the time I was 36. Very bad thing happened to me. But I have outlived my diagnosis, should have died years ago, but by God's mercy I am still alive! I was depressed for more than 40 years, finally cured of depression. IF I would have gotten married and had children, I would have home schooled them, or put them in private church school which is much more friendly and safer. I would not subject them to public school. Public school was the cause of my depression and the beginning of my sexual abuse and introduced me to a pedhophile who attempted to murder me. It took me decades to get over what that person did to me.
You living in matrix and u must realise this and chill, will be no more depresion or bad things, hell is earth who are Weaken thay know that. All the best for u take care )
As a younger individual, I originally did not understand the meaning of this video nor the song. Now I do. “All in all you’re just another brick in the wall.” The kids going into the meat grinder after walking the same stride, the kids repeating what the teacher says, “you can’t have any pudding if you don’t eat your meat!” The children are eating the “meat” and repeating the COGs. The system doesn’t want you to be different, they want you to be another cog in the wheel, another brick in the wall and to do what you’re told 24/7 despite their lies. Rodger Waters, lyrical genius. Syd Barrett, helping to create that genius with his vocals. Incredible song.
1979. I was a freshman in high school. You know, that extremely vulnerable part of an adolescent's upbringing at 15 years of age? I had developed an appreciation for Floyd back at DSOTM, but it hadn't fully developed yet. We had an English teacher (private school) who was from Ireland and spoke in a VERY thick brogue. To my untrained American ears, this broke me. It didn't help that Craig S. behind me used to chant this under his breath during class when he would go ripping off on the football players. :) First time I saw the movie, it moved me in directions I still haven't recovered from. I have seen Floyd live (in one form or another) four times, including Roger's latest worldwide effort. I hope i get to see a few more before I pass. Fantastic music that time will not forget.
I would like to immediately apologize for my English, I translated it into Google Translate. I only read on my own, mostly technical literature. I am your age; I was also 15 years old in 1979. I am from Moldova, then it was the USSR. That year I entered the 9th grade, but in general we had a 10-year school and graduated in 1981. I started listening to Pink Floyd at the age of 12, the first album was The Dark Side of the Moon. We called this album The Far Side of the Moon, and they still call it that. In those days, Pink Floyd was not a very popular group in our country. But when The Wall album came out, it just exploded. Almost all of my classmates had this album on reels. By the way, it appeared with a delay of about a year and not officially. They just copied each other. I first saw the film on the Internet in the early 2000s. Until now, this is practically the only album that I can listen to completely in one sitting. Unfortunately I have never seen the band live. But I still love their music.
In isolation, the solo of Another Brick 2 is so grand and epic that it alone is capable of moving people. But when added to the scenes of anarchy and revolution of the students finally rebelling against the system that imprisons and disempowers them, there really is no way to hold back the lump in your throat. Absolutely fantastic.
I served in the US Navy with an officer who was one of the kids. He attended a school in London for American kids of Businessmen, Diplomats etc, and somebody at the school knew the band. They didn’t sing, and had no idea what the video was about, they were just happy to get a day off from school. He told me this before YT came around, so I don’t know which one he is.
@@giannisfragos722 it’s been 20 years, but I do remember him saying that they had no idea on the magnitude of what they were doing. But it beat going to school.
I remember reading somewhere that “Another Brick in the Wall” was banned in South Africa during the racist apartheid regime (which was still going in 1979 when the song came out) because they were worried it might cause rebellions and civil disobedience. By the way, great job on the video. Thank you!
It’s true, my mum said they were banned from singing the song at school- I’d always assumed it was just at that school had no idea it was a nationwide thing
A work of Art right up there with Shakespeare, Michelangelo, Da Vinci, Beethoven, Bach, Mozart. I was 10 when I listened to the Album for the first time. Now I am 55, the Cassette changed to CD, to DVD to USB to the Phone. The music grew on me.
@StjernebelystSkogssti sure Pink Floyd is for teen girls🤣🤣 I agree this is a completely overrated song tho. Echoes on the other hand is the best piece of music
If you go to 5:09 in the Echoes song. That's where Andrew Lloyd Webber copied and turned it into one of the most famous musical song ever, "Phantom of the Opera" .
I really do not like using this quality of language, but I feel compelled to: This album is a work of genius, and every household needs this as much as they need a fridge, stove, and dishwasher. This is how important it is to a national culture and a national understanding. This is the British Upper, Middle, and Working Class culture in one album.
I had a Latin teacher in the 1960s here in Australia. It was a strict private boys school . He was a tough Yorkshireman. He read passages from Caesars Invasion of Britain and had us enthralled by reading the description of the Legionnaires piling up enemy bodies in a river to a height enough for the chariots and wagons to be driven across. We loved up.
I loved this song back in the day. I was at school at the time. Looking back it captures the 70's Britain so well. I had a teacher just like this. I used to lookj on this as a dystopian future. But I now look back with fondness.
@@matt8399well, the magic behind Pink Floyd is that even though he’s clearly singing about his experiences with school in the 1950s, the lyrics are still a universal story that we can all relate to no matter what time you grew up in. The message is still relevant today.

Such a good video. Im 66 now and when I watch this it reminds me of how I felt in high school. I was so lucky I didn't blow my lid, as depicted in this video, but sometimes it felt like I was almost there.
@@bennym1956 So, what do you think makes the kids of today the way they are compared to the kids of 60's/70's? I recall the parents of the kids of the 60's/70's saying that when the kids were much better behaved in their day. They grew up in the 2nd world war erra.
1:06 That part of the poem is the lyrics of the song "MONEY" (Money get back I'm alright, Jack, keep your hands off of my stack, New car, caviar, four star, daydream, Think I'll buy me a football team) from the album "THE DARK SIDE OF THE MOON". "
Probably the best music video that exists to this day. I must say that the visuals and practical effects are excellent. Kinda morbid with the grinder one though.
This isn't the original music video, this video is a clip from the movie "The Wall", which came out 3 years after the eponymous album did, and this is the part of the movie that accompanied this song. The original music video was actually half animated in fact. But your point still stands, as a music video it slaps super hard.
@tsunamis82 a nice proprietary blend that came out to be shaped and put into a mold called society with no outlet. (Grow, pay taxes and die) thing is this thing couldn't be more relevant today.
It's the story of indoctrination into a society that sees individuals as part of a machine, the individual characteristics minced to become part of the whole. The meat grinder is just a pictorial analogy of that. Unfortunately that was the case in 1970's Britain just as it is in 2023 Britain for the vast majority.
This came out when I was in 6th grade. It was frequently requested to the DJ during the end of year party at the roller skating rink. Played again and again, about every third song.
The repression and conséquent explosion of feelings, the sence of liberation so accurately described in this video, was a reality of many who grew up and had to attend primary schools in the British Isles in the 1950s and 1960s. Not only where this schools extreamely strict, the level of education was high. English education has allways been considered very good, which is why wealthy parents often send their children to english schools. All great British rock musicians who became famous in the late 1960s and 1970s went to these repressive schools, this includes all members of Pink Floyd, The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, and many dozens of other brilliant rock bands of the era that we all rever and admire as truly brilliant. It is my feeling, having myself assisted a boarding school in England at that time, that the success of these bands is to a great extent due to the repressive and yet thorough education they received in childhood. Contemporary rock groups in the USA, Canada, Australia, Europe did not receive this particcular primary education so they had neither the deep rooted strong need to express their liberation and rebellion against the establishment nor did they have the higher level of education to express this liberation and rebellion with. These performers with their very sincere, authentic, unique revelius erreveren revolutionary and yet sofisticated and inteligent music, atire, and attitudes charmed audiences all over the world and drove young girls crazy with delight. Because history never repeats and in particular this unique unusual historical sequence of events will never happen again. Groups as fenomelaly great as these will never again exist, although young people of every following generation have and will continue in vain to try to emulate and surpass them.
This specific music video brings back a lot of memories from my childhood, right now I'm 14 years old but it still brings back memories of when I was like 5 or 6 years old and I'm very happy that my dad taught me what Pink Floyd was, I always played it on the car and I fell very asleep, honestly it is a great band that was a big part of my childhood, this song always made me think about how they teach us to be employees, I quote the song "just another brick in the wall", and it is a great representation of everything that is happening currently, I hope this comment has helped someone, love from Mexico.

Exactly! Simplicity done perfectly. Less is more in this case. Great bass-lines can be simple like this (and Another one bites the Dust) or can be extreme (YYZ- Rush, Teen Town - Jaco etc.) Awesome song.
I love this music video, I love the solo and I love the idea of the idea of the children finally breaking free. But in the end when it cuts back to the child in the classroom, it’s very eerie, almost showing that things will never really change in schools.
The schoolmaster is played by Alex McAvoy, who died on 16th June 2005 aged 77. His wife is played by Margery Mason, who died on 26th January 2014 aged 100. She also played the Honeydukes Express lady in Harry Potter Goblet of Fire.
quando começa o solo me dá um nó na garganta nao sei se é por ser tão lindo o solo com as cenas, nao sei se é por ser tão sutil e real, mas amo demais o pink floyd, minha banda preferida.
Provavelmente são as 2 coisas, migs. O solo isoladamente já é incrivelmente grandioso e épico, mas, de fato, quando se soma às cenas de anarquia e revolução dos alunos finalmente se rebelando contra o sistema que os aprisiona e desempodera, aí de fato não tem como segurar o nó na garganta. Absolutamente fantástico.

I will never forget the first time that I saw this video… it was 1999 on the news was celebrating the 20th anniversary of the album. I was 11 years old. At that time, I did not understand English but I was shocked and so scared when the kids fell into the meat grinder. I remember I could not sleep that night lol. That was the first time that I heard about pink Floyd. Nowadays, it is one of my favorite bands.
In 1981-82 my dad went to Australia and met someone that was in this music video as a “silly kid”. Since RUclips didn’t exist then and really the only way for this guy to show people where he was in this video was if he recorded a segment of MTV on a VHS that had this song, he doesn’t know where this guy was in the video.
Anyone who has ever studied would connect to this song. Its a legendary song. I've been listening to this song for 20+ years and yet it touches my heart everytime I listen to it.
I grew up on MTV in the 80s… dad was a HUGE Pink Floyd fan, Led Zeppelin, The Who, Black Sabbath and the like - he’d put records on and crank it up on the weekends and we jammed out while he taught me how to fold towels and run the vacuum - stuff like that (mom was out of the picture). Well, I was like 6 when I first saw this video on MTV. Could t look away even though I was horrific. After, I said to my dad, very seriously, “daddy, I don’t want to go to that school”. He says, “well, you better eat your meat and dinner then” (you know, because the song says how can you get your pudding if you don’t eat your meat). Never complained about dinner again!
Haha I'm in this and looking into camera at 5:30 (tut tut). Wonderful experience for me and my school friends being in this movie. Introduced me to Pink Floyd (obvs) and very thankful for that :)
1:39 "You speak after me: An acre is the area of a rectangle, who's lenght is one furlong and who's width is one chain" Man findet das nicht unter "lyrics" wenn man danach sucht ... furlong = 10 chains
Love the part where the children break a wall with their axes and crowbars. Shows the message early on that kids naturally won't live in isolation, and it's adults who corrupt themselves.
Ξυπνα για λίγα δευτερόλεπτα… Οι ενήλικες προσομοιάζουν το σύστημα που ζεις, τον καπιταλισμό και οι μαθητές περισσότερο μορφωμένοι και ανήσυχοι επαναστατούν ενάντια σε αυτό το σύστημα ζητώντας το καινούργιο, τον σοσιαλισμό ίσως…
Time flies, it's been more than 12 years now .. Our math teacher, may God have mercy on his soul, when the class was being talkative, jokingly told us : "What's next? Are you gonna start singing we don't need no education? Like the pink floyd song .. " and was laughing.. One of the chillest people, he used to understand math, explain it to me like i needed to, you have to taste it, visualize the abstractions, understand truly, not memorize some laws and applications .. May God bless his soul and accept his deeds.
Hearing the students say : "¡Hey! ¡Teacher! ¡Leave the kids alone! Makes me feel nostalgic. At the end when kids are done of patience, they show their courage, anguish, anger and demonstration that they are fed up with the bad treatment.
An amazing song that will never be out of style! Screaming in the school by the teachers was the norm and not the exception. Yet we the students adapted to it! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Still remember hearing this for the first time when i was 5 and was part-way through kindergarten. All in all, not a bad way to wake up whilst on a road-trip with three of my siblings.
I once was passing in front of a shop where there was a tv showing this, sound and all. There was a bunch of homeless kids that watched it mesmerized... Brazilian children, that probably didn't know a word of English yet the message came for them straight.
Funny story about this song from my country, Ukraine. We have radio station here, that plays only rock. And every first day of the semester, or the quarter (half of the semester), they'd put this song on air, straight up in the morning, right before studies, when parents were driving theirs children to school. I still have no idea if that's coincidence or not, but that's just hilarious to hear "We don't need no education" on your way to school
that wasn't coincidence, just attempt to verify absence of thoughts of the state cattle on a State farm. Everyone was going to get education certificate to have access to State's feeding trough what ever the words.
@@achatcueilleur5746 of course. This is the philosophy of this song. But it was really nice to understand that people on the radio station were getting this song right, and it was super funny to listen to it when you're driving to school. I was always laughing to guts from this everlasting joke

@@bennym1956 So, what do you think makes the kids of today the way they are compared to the kids of 60's/70's? I recall the parents of the kids of the 60's/70's saying that when the kids were much better behaved in their day. They grew up in the 2nd world war erra.
@@bennym1956 shut up
one of the greatest songs in history for sure! all time classics and that solo when the anarchy starts wow!!!
1:06 That part of the poem is the lyrics of the song "MONEY" (Money get back
I'm alright, Jack, keep your hands off of my stack, New car, caviar, four star, daydream, Think I'll buy me a football team) from the album "THE DARK SIDE OF THE MOON". "
When I notice that, I was impressive idk why
Probably the best music video that exists to this day. I must say that the visuals and practical effects are excellent. Kinda morbid with the grinder one though.
They all came out the same, unidentifiable after their education.
This isn't the original music video, this video is a clip from the movie "The Wall", which came out 3 years after the eponymous album did, and this is the part of the movie that accompanied this song.
The original music video was actually half animated in fact.
But your point still stands, as a music video it slaps super hard.
@tsunamis82 a nice proprietary blend that came out to be shaped and put into a mold called society with no outlet. (Grow, pay taxes and die) thing is this thing couldn't be more relevant today.
It's the story of indoctrination into a society that sees individuals as part of a machine, the individual characteristics minced to become part of the whole. The meat grinder is just a pictorial analogy of that.
Unfortunately that was the case in 1970's Britain just as it is in 2023 Britain for the vast majority.
Правда не всегда красива...
4:22 I really love the guitar solo...
Me too.
Once David Gilmour touches your sole, you'll never be the same again!
@@davidmeakin2610 Touches your "sole"?! 😂
3:52 I love rhythm guitar.
Yeah !!!!!!
This came out when I was in 6th grade. It was frequently requested to the DJ during the end of year party at the roller skating rink. Played again and again, about every third song.
The poem being the letter form Money is an absouloutly amazing detail
The best video made for this song . We are living in this world today ... we are just BRICKS IN THEIR WALL
The bricks represent the reasons that someone pushes themselves further into isolation, not us

The repression and conséquent explosion of feelings, the sence of liberation so accurately described in this video, was a reality of many who grew up and had to attend primary schools in the British Isles in the 1950s and 1960s. Not only where this schools extreamely strict, the level of education was high. English education has allways been considered very good, which is why wealthy parents often send their children to english schools. All great British rock musicians who became famous in the late 1960s and 1970s went to these repressive schools, this includes all members of Pink Floyd, The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, and many dozens of other brilliant rock bands of the era that we all rever and admire as truly brilliant.
It is my feeling, having myself assisted a boarding school in England at that time, that the success of these bands is to a great extent due to the repressive and yet thorough education they received in childhood. Contemporary rock groups in the USA, Canada, Australia, Europe did not receive this particcular primary education so they had neither the deep rooted strong need to express their liberation and rebellion against the establishment nor did they have the higher level of education to express this liberation and rebellion with. These performers with their very sincere, authentic, unique revelius erreveren revolutionary and yet sofisticated and inteligent music, atire, and attitudes charmed audiences all over the world and drove young girls crazy with delight. Because history never repeats and in particular this unique unusual historical sequence of events will never happen again. Groups as fenomelaly great as these will never again exist, although young people of every following generation have and will continue in vain to try to emulate and surpass them.

Quantas lembranças maravilhosas,que sucesso que nunca se apagará.LINDO,LINDO!!!!
Concordo.
Pode passar décadas e sempre será lembrada
Wow - LEGENDARY !!! The sound quality and the video is HQ - amazing work !!!
This specific music video brings back a lot of memories from my childhood, right now I'm 14 years old but it still brings back memories of when I was like 5 or 6 years old and I'm very happy that my dad taught me what Pink Floyd was, I always played it on the car and I fell very asleep, honestly it is a great band that was a big part of my childhood, this song always made me think about how they teach us to be employees, I quote the song "just another brick in the wall", and it is a great representation of everything that is happening currently, I hope this comment has helped someone, love from Mexico.
How many times we felt like that in school.. This was in the 70's
It hasn't changed at all. Even in the 2000s and 2010s it is the same grueling dehumanising experience
This song and videos takes me back to my childhood memories
One of the most well written songs
I haven’t slept in a week because of this music video such a good song
Think that is the most important video of these planet!!!! Thank´s sooo much! Sir Jülian Lachet!👍👍👍 Eine der tollsten remarstert Video´s, die ich je gehören und gesehen habe....
Mind control.. it was clear many years ago.. wondeful work.
Hence why critical and analytical thinking skills are necessary rather than anti- Acedemia, Science, intellectualism, empirical data and evidence verses say religious grooming, indoctrination, prideful willful ignorance etc.....
This song and message in the song and how the music video is made, is the best music video ever made. no doubt
انتى فنانه انا متأكد لانكى تفهمين فى الفن ..انا بكل تواظع من كتب كلمات هذه الاغنيه وكذالك لحنتها واعطيتها لصديقى الفنان الذى غناها لان صوتى غير جميل لذالك قلت له غنيها واهديكى هذه الاغنيه عربون محبه وصداقه وشكرا..فتاح

So simple yet so iconic and memorable.
Exactly! Simplicity done perfectly. Less is more in this case.
Great bass-lines can be simple like this (and Another one bites the Dust) or can be extreme (YYZ- Rush, Teen Town - Jaco etc.)
Awesome song.
Agree
I love this music video, I love the solo and I love the idea of the idea of the children finally breaking free. But in the end when it cuts back to the child in the classroom, it’s very eerie, almost showing that things will never really change in schools.
Thank you for this high quality upload
The schoolmaster is played by Alex McAvoy, who died on 16th June 2005 aged 77.
His wife is played by Margery Mason, who died on 26th January 2014 aged 100. She also played the Honeydukes Express lady in Harry Potter Goblet of Fire.
RIP to both of them.
I'm 98 and I'm still listening laddy 😃
What a perfect remaster. Just 100%... thanks
My dad put this on when I was 5 yrs old ....loved it I kept repeating the video 📼...
Thank you RUclips short for reminding me this song that my dad used to play when I was a kid.
quando começa o solo me dá um nó na garganta nao sei se é por ser tão lindo o solo com as cenas, nao sei se é por ser tão sutil e real, mas amo demais o pink floyd, minha banda preferida.
Provavelmente são as 2 coisas, migs. O solo isoladamente já é incrivelmente grandioso e épico, mas, de fato, quando se soma às cenas de anarquia e revolução dos alunos finalmente se rebelando contra o sistema que os aprisiona e desempodera, aí de fato não tem como segurar o nó na garganta. Absolutamente fantástico.
It's breaking My heart that the republican took your babies. I'm on one..... Heart rules.❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
David Gilmore is my favorite guitarist. He gets so much emotion out of his strat. Best solos out there
este clipe faz parte do filme The Wall, vi este filme 5 vezes quando saiu no cinema era fantástico coisa de outro mundo na época e ate hoje
❤❤❤ Мурашки по коже... это шедевр на века !!! ❤❤❤
надеюсь, вы понимаете, как англо-американская система делает уже более 2 веков болванчиков для укрепления своей системы. и Пинки не смогли преодолеть данную систему, она продолжает выпускать этих болванчиков до сих пор. инсайд из 2023 года.

@@СБар-э6р эта песня основано на воспоминаниях Роджера уотерса о школе. Он родился в 1945г. Подумайте во сколько лет он в ней учился!
I will never forget the first time that I saw this video… it was 1999 on the news was celebrating the 20th anniversary of the album. I was 11 years old. At that time, I did not understand English but I was shocked and so scared when the kids fell into the meat grinder. I remember I could not sleep that night lol. That was the first time that I heard about pink Floyd. Nowadays, it is one of my favorite bands.
Es una obra de arte total, lástima que los primeros 2 minutos no estén en las canciones de los discos
Si están, forman parte de la canción The Happiest Day of Our Lives
Escucha el álbum completo.
In 1981-82 my dad went to Australia and met someone that was in this music video as a “silly kid”. Since RUclips didn’t exist then and really the only way for this guy to show people where he was in this video was if he recorded a segment of MTV on a VHS that had this song, he doesn’t know where this guy was in the video.
my dad got me into pink floyd And this is still my favorite song and comfortably numb Just the music is so much better then the new stuff today
This will forever be the best song and group ever Period.
said only one person, ever.
@@chaipup7045nah he’s right, this song and Pink Floyd as a whole is fucking awesome.
@@chaipup7045 Then go listen to your nonsense meaningless songs 💩
I have to say when pressed, if I have to pick, it’s my favorite tune. It’s got it all
I can’t stay still while listening to this masterpiece.
Anyone who has ever studied would connect to this song. Its a legendary song. I've been listening to this song for 20+ years and yet it touches my heart everytime I listen to it.
Música incrível! Saudades ❤
I loved this song and it would come back to haunt and guide me when I become a teacher.
@uNnHkP8mza obviously not an english teacher
The power of these scene is terrific!
I'm seventy years old and this song still gives me a big smile every time I hear it and at the same time memories of school I don't want to re-live.
I grew up on MTV in the 80s… dad was a HUGE Pink Floyd fan, Led Zeppelin, The Who, Black Sabbath and the like - he’d put records on and crank it up on the weekends and we jammed out while he taught me how to fold towels and run the vacuum - stuff like that (mom was out of the picture). Well, I was like 6 when I first saw this video on MTV. Could t look away even though I was horrific. After, I said to my dad, very seriously, “daddy, I don’t want to go to that school”. He says, “well, you better eat your meat and dinner then” (you know, because the song says how can you get your pudding if you don’t eat your meat). Never complained about dinner again!
Kids like me be complaining these days about school, but man do we have it easy, it was much harder back in the day. We shouldnt be complaining
Haha I'm in this and looking into camera at 5:30 (tut tut). Wonderful experience for me and my school friends being in this movie. Introduced me to Pink Floyd (obvs) and very thankful for that :)
1:39 "You speak after me: An acre is the area of a rectangle, who's lenght is one furlong and who's width is one chain"

My dad used to play this song to spite me because I hated school but the stupid bloke didn't realize the song also spoke of him.
Love the part where the children break a wall with their axes and crowbars. Shows the message early on that kids naturally won't live in isolation, and it's adults who corrupt themselves.
Ja ja ja. Esfuérzate un poco más

Crowbars? Half-Life reference?! 😮

This is more relevant now more than ever
Time flies, it's been more than 12 years now .. Our math teacher, may God have mercy on his soul, when the class was being talkative, jokingly told us : "What's next? Are you gonna start singing we don't need no education? Like the pink floyd song .. " and was laughing.. One of the chillest people, he used to understand math, explain it to me like i needed to, you have to taste it, visualize the abstractions, understand truly, not memorize some laws and applications .. May God bless his soul and accept his deeds.
I've always loved the band. I grew up listening to Pink Floyd ❤❤❤❤
Hearing the students say : "¡Hey! ¡Teacher! ¡Leave the kids alone!
Makes me feel nostalgic. At the end when kids are done of patience, they show their courage, anguish, anger and demonstration that they are fed up with the bad treatment.
Ironically this is by far the most commercial, radio friendly pop song Pink Floyd has ever recorded.
Imagine being a teacher walking into this shit 😂. Lmfao they have stumbled upon the gathering 3:24
I had such a crush on the girl at 3:58 when I watched this over and over when I was younger. I wonder how she’s doing these days.
she is pretty indeed
1:36, The Poet dies
Jeeez, that hits hard.
An amazing song that will never be out of style! Screaming in the school by the teachers was the norm and not the exception. Yet we the students adapted to it! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
My dad showed this to me when I was in like 5th grade, and now I'm a freshman in high school listening to this
Music always brings me to a specific period in my life and I can feel the experience all over again
O som esta com uma textura incrível.
Dorien mode in music... 🙂

Hands down those kids lived our dreams
Que locura de cancion, me impresiona lo profunda que es.
The classroom scene was filmed at Lewis High School in the UK. In that classroom I practiced for my Grade 8 assessment in classical music.
Still remember hearing this for the first time when i was 5 and was part-way through kindergarten. All in all, not a bad way to wake up whilst on a road-trip with three of my siblings.

I once was passing in front of a shop where there was a tv showing this, sound and all. There was a bunch of homeless kids that watched it mesmerized... Brazilian children, that probably didn't know a word of English yet the message came for them straight.
Always and forever a classic. Thanks.
Still one of the greatest anti-authoritarian songs till today…not only about bad teachers, but any tyrant or bully.
4:55 that drop with fire sound...
Funny story about this song from my country, Ukraine. We have radio station here, that plays only rock. And every first day of the semester, or the quarter (half of the semester), they'd put this song on air, straight up in the morning, right before studies, when parents were driving theirs children to school. I still have no idea if that's coincidence or not, but that's just hilarious to hear "We don't need no education" on your way to school
that wasn't coincidence, just attempt to verify absence of thoughts of the state cattle on a State farm. Everyone was going to get education certificate to have access to State's feeding trough what ever the words.
@@achatcueilleur5746 of course. This is the philosophy of this song. But it was really nice to understand that people on the radio station were getting this song right, and it was super funny to listen to it when you're driving to school. I was always laughing to guts from this everlasting joke
