I was fifteen, when I heard this record the first time. Don't know how often I listened to it in the past 43 years. Love "The Wall" really. But yes, I agree: "Animals" is in my opinion still the best.
I love this song so much that when I finally bought an electric guitar after not having one for 20 years I built it with the exact parts and pickups Gilmour used for this album.
Ken Taylor, it sure is. Absolutely timeless, even though it specifically names british politicians from the 1970s. It still apply today, just change the names.
Can´t say I would get the meaning behind this without the Lyrics or any PF song for that matter, The words came first and a music skeleton from Waters. The rest with Waters built the music atmosphere, Brilliant altogether. Its a myth Waters just brought words and then sat back for a song , Which his antis like to believe .
@@kevanbodsworth9868 nothing brings meaning to Waters lyrics like Gilmours guitars. Nothing gives meaning to Gilmours guitar than Waters lyrics. Period. Waters stuff is trash post PF. Gilmours is slightly better but nothing like with Waters.
I am a lifelong Pink Floyd fan. I have almost everything they have ever recorded, on vinyl. This is by far my favorite album of theirs and “Dogs” is probably my favorite song from that album. I love watching a man like you discover this for the first time. It is extremely moving for me. And to the 58 people that gave it a thumbs down, you’re either idiots, trolls or have no musical soul whatsoever.
This is in the group of 3 greatest GOAT records I have in my collection. Dark Side of the Moon, Wish you Were Here, and Animals. I would take The Wall to a deserted Island with Beatles White and Zeps Physical Graffiti.
I like you have everything they've ever recorded. Including the theme for Moore, which I have never opened! Bought my first 8-track of them in 67,started collecting from there. Still have many on 8-track, vinyl. I had recorded hundreds of cassettes, since they always went camping with us . CDs are good they don't have the same warmth as vinyl. As for those listening off the internet,all this music is compressed. Much of it is missing when you hear it! Because of that, if you think it's the greatest thing you've ever heard while listening on the internet. it can't compare. And when it comes to live, they they where hands down the best. Had the opportunity to see them perform animals in an open Stadium. and fly the pig swung from a crane. The music was so loud they could hear it inside Sky Harbor International three miles away. The second night Tempe Arizona made them turn the music down. I was glad I went to the first, though I was deaf for a week. LOL Sorry the memories of an old man are the Deeds of a man in his prime. ✌️🤠
I’ve seen them live here in the Bay Area back in 77 during the Animal’s tour. And I’ve seen them every time they come back, I’ve even seen every solo show Roger and David
What Shall we do now, When the Tigers Broke Free, The Thin Ice, Pigs, Time, Echoes, Shine On, Mother, hell I could go on and on 😂 they have many upon many great compositions
miko1975guitar Waters wrote all of the tracks on Animals. Lyrics and music. Sang and performed on all. Gilmour only contributed to one track writing with Waters
Even more relevant. I was late teen early twenties growing up and fully comprehending the messages in many lyrics of the day aka war pigs 100% should wake everyone up . The lies today are 1000% more bombastic than the 1970 😳😳😳
Ikr?!? I love watching him getting into the music. He has great understanding of the meaning of these songs. Btw, this is my favorite song from the Animals album.
Dave deserves his kudos, but HENDRIX was the MASTER of the Strat, hands down! Hendrix was the impetus for a lot of the guitar effects that came later, since players had a hard time recreating what Jimi could do without the effects boxes! Jimi also rewired his own Marshall amps to get a unique sound.
@@chestypullerfan2 So silly talk about Hendrics, when we have Gilmour & PF! Hendrics is a lilliputian in music (I don't remember ALL his songs!), Gilmour is a Giant!
Without a doubt, Animals is my favorite Pink Floyd album...it was gifted to me by a friend who didn't want it since it had no radio hits. A life changing event for me, a foolish mistake for him.
@@cornfedjuggalo Classic...love it. I've got that episode on a DVD...recorded from air in syndication, so the music is all intact. Coincidentally, that scene is from WKRP's most famous episode, "Turkeys Away."
It's a concept album based on George Orwell's "Animal Farm". The dogs in the book are the muscle/security that serve and protect the greedy and crooked pigs who run the farm after they kick out the oppressive farmer. It's one of my favorite books and this is my favorite Pink Floyd album. Both are masterpieces.
My dad gave me his Floyd records when I was like 11 or 12 said I was ready. I knew the music was life changing then as a kid. As I grew older I never stopped listening and as the years continue to roll off the calendar the songs become more and more relevant. No doubt, some of the best music in human history....
On a really long drive from Philadelphia to Chicago I made my Pop a Pink Floyd fan.. he said it was a soundtrack for a movie that didn't exist but the music fills in all the blanks...
I’ve listen to this song a million times, and not once until now have I thought to myself “what are the dogs saying?” in the dogs barking section of the song. I probably would have went on listening to it without thinking about it, if you hadn’t pointed it out. So that opened my mind up to even more wonder. That was cool you mentioned that. And I’m glad you looked up the meaning beforehand, that way you knew exactly what was being talked about as the song went on. Since you did this song, you should also consider reacting to the song Pigs and the song Sheep. This is from Pink Floyd’s album Animals, which is a concept album, they say it’s based on the book Animal Farm by George Orwell. The album has 3 main songs (4 songs overall, there’s a song called “Pigs On The Wing” but it’s a different sort of thing). These songs deal with 3 different facets of society and liken them to animals. Dogs as you can see is about the businessmen who backstab and perpetuate the “dog eat dog world” idea. The song Pigs is about like the higher up people in social positions of power. And the song Sheep is about the regular everyday people at the bottom of the social ladder who just go on through life doing as their told. In my opinion Dogs is probably the most complex song of the 3 and the biggest one to digest, and seeing as that you’ve already done it, maybe you should go ahead and knock out the other 2 as well. I mean lyrically Pigs might be the most complex one to digest. But in all other departments, like musically, with all the changes throughout the song, and it’s length, and just how vast it is, Dogs is the most complex I think. Either way, even if you don’t decide to react to the other 2 it’s all good. I still look forward to what ever songs you have in store for future reactions. -Have a great day
I always thought, because of the synthesizer modulation, that they almost WERE words mixed with the simulated dog sound in that segment.....further suggested by the rhythm of it, which seems to be in a very preacher-like manner. Good call regarding the rest of it.
Man, I sure wish there was a live video version of this album in concert!!! I really want to see who is playing what and when, the guitars I mean. And how the synthesizer dog sounds are done. I mean I know who plays what aaaarg, never mind........I just wish I could see it.
When I wore a younger man clothes,my friends and I would “relax”and listen to this.On one occasion one of my friends got up to look for the dog that was barking.
I totally did that at Waters In the Flesh tour. I was so into the performance, then the barking started in the speakers to the rear, I turned to look for the dog, then realizing it was part of the song I felt like an idiot. Lol
I had the same thing happen with a friend of mine, except it was with the Wall. I'm sorry to say i can't remember the song right now but there's a place where there's a helicopter over head. I had a really good stereo in my truck and we were way out in the strip pits. Suddenly it gets quiet and you hear the bird and it sounds like it's coming right down on top of us. He literally opened the door to start looking for it when the music started. He wasn't very familiar with the Floyd and couldn't believe it was coming from a cassette deck. I had to rewind it to prove it. I had a good chuckle but he was slightly pissed because i didn't stop him from getting out. Probably more from me laughing at him. The Floyd are an experience not just music to be listened to.
@@michaelbronco1023 I know the feeling Michael. I've done that too with a really good sound system I heard dogs barking and I had to look behind me. LOL
I knew Jamal was going to be impressed with the lyrics. When Gilmour sang about backstabbing, he got so worked up. And when there was the part of the "sad old man", he realized how not only these lyrics are deep, but also absolutely ruthless. This entire album in general is ruthless, and I love it for that. Great reaction as always. The rabbit hole of classic rock is one we all like to dive.
This is one of my favorite Pink Floyd songs. "You have to be trusted by the people that you lie to, so that when they turn their backs on you, you'll get the chance to put the knife in" love that line. George Orwell's Animal Farm helped provide some of the inspiration for this album.
Imagine being a teen when most of Floyd came out....it was an event. We planned a night around first listen with some primo weed/acid and good alcohol..........I know, sounds terrible but we came thru ok.
Not terrible Dash, the way of the day! Did it all. Hash, weed, blotter and liquid LSD, good booze as you said. Not only Floyd but we were lucky to have so many excellent musicians and bands, not to mention the fact that it'll never happen again. I still own and play vinyl. Loved the aroma when I opened the album. David Gilmour was the soul of the band. Waters was a great lyricist. Nice rapping with ya and remember, "There is no dark side of the Moon really, matter of fact, it's all dark" Peace
@@57darkhorse I highly agree with all you said. It was the way of the day.......so glad we got to experience a magical period. Heck I still buy vinyl. Wish I still did some of the 'other' stuff too, wink
@@AZ-gw8un all he said was "Gilmour was the soul of the band".. not the founder. not everyone knows the back story behind every band, we share the news hoping to expand others knowledge on such things. not shove it down their throat with disgust that they didn't know better in the first place. :)
I was 23 when this came out, and just a couple years from getting out of the Army. Imagine cracking the cellophane off this and sitting down with your friends and a big bowl to hear for the first time. And no lyric sheets, just listening to what they said. Loved that new album experience.
Here I sit at 5 am listening to dogs with you, what a great way to start the day. This is my favorite PF album bought it when it came out I was 14 and fell in love with it , I pulled it out two weeks ago for my 57th birthday and put it on the turn table and I love it as much as the first time I heard it. Hopefully you will do the rest of it soon. Great job...♡
Nice to hear the word turntable. I'm glad you put on an album, I have my component sound system that still sounds great. And have most of my vinyl from back then, and newer versions of albums. But I loved the special effects on that tour. One of my many favorite songs by Floyd. Saw them live 4 times., once at MSG. Happy 57th birthday 🎂
Seen Roger do this song live before...during the Dog part interlude, the band busted out a table and played a round of cards. It was quite awesome really.
“If you replaced the dogs barking with the humans, what would they be saying?” Heard this a hundred times and have never been so grateful to hear barking. Great observation!
Jason Bryce, that's too funny! Mine probably would too, but she's 14 and doesn't hear much anymore. They actually recorded a real dog moaning and howling on one of their albums, the song is called "seamus". It's about the silliest song PF ever did.
@@rorylapidus5772 wow, I didn't think of that. There used to be a commercial for Beggin' Strips dog snacks that would send my dog into a frenzy. The commercial was an animation dog but I was convinced they used one of those whistles that only dogs could hear. We were already talking about Big Brother in another thread earlier. He is present in TV commercials as well as phones and computers.
Well, unless the tweeters in your speakers, through which you play the song, produce sound frequencies above 23 khtz, that is an unlikely scenario.........however, I know that some manufacturers claim such ratings.
Jason Bryce, Mine’s just crashing next to me. She’s used to my music, and is impervious to weird noises, including dog whistles. Edit: Well, she’s not impervious to my singing. She just relocated to the other end of the sofa.
teppolundgren, Haven’t seen you at Fil’s in months. Brad has been bullying Lynn, accusing her of being you, and being a man. If I could, I’d ban him from the channel. Did he get ugly with you?
@@beachgirl4583 I don't even know who Brad is. And I guess I'm a bit bored with how Fil is constantly trying to find GREAT things about every artist he watches performing. It doesn't matter what they do. Fil will exaggerate the tiniest detail, whether it's deserved or not. And it feels a bit dishonest to me, as if he's only doing it to get more subscribers. Because subscribers like positive channels...
I saw Roger Waters on his Us and Them tour a few years ago and he opened the second half of his set with this! All 17 minutes of it! I could not have been more happily surprised! One of my favorite Floyd songs. The part where he sings "So have a good drown, while you go down, all alone, dragged down by the stone" makes me break out in goosebumps every time.
the first time I heard this song I remember my dad played it and we were driving home late at night in the middle of nowhere coming home from a fishing trip or something and I'll never forget that feeling I got from it just looking out the window into the darkness with my imagination going crazy, now that I've grown up I still play it if we happen to be driving somewhere late at night
By far my favorite Pink Floyd album! Stripped down and lean, like a mad max NASCAR. The keyboards are the sounds of being up way past your bedtime and wondering if you're still asleep or waking up and not realizing it... Absolutely brilliant!!!
Yep..”Reclined” is the best way...lost track of how many times me and my friends were lounging on a sofa in my friends basement with the lights low,spliffs on the go and listening to Floyd..good times
I consider it a shame, no, a sin that the farmers of the spliff got greedy for fame, that is the desire to manipulate up to the strongest ever created. I recall rolling a cigarette pack full to take to a concert (hell, to get through the day!) It was a great socially bonding experience to puff and pass and groove on good music. Then the content went from 3% to 23% and higher, and as we got higher the one-hit made us say "I pass". It's been many years since I enjoyed sparking one up. Well, at least we have good memories!
My God yes. I’d go to my mates flat, it’d get late, he’d put on his red lamp and green lamp, Floyd on the stereo.....it was magic. Some 30 years later I can still see it clear as day.......reefer smoke drifting through the light and an amazing feeling of contentment and relaxation. Happy days.
I saw them tour after this came out. It was my first PF show, and I've never forgotten it! Gilmour's guitar was so edgy and raw - it cut like a laser! And this was back before there were volume limits in most arenas, so he was REALLY loud. Dogs remains one of my top PF songs to see live. The lyrics, the solos, the coda at the end - just stunning to see it played well live. Until you experience that you don't really get the full savage intent of it from the studio recording.
@@brettg274 and Izzy, I absolutely love PF, but I've never cared much for Echoes. To me it seems boring, just going up and down the same 5 consecutive notes over and over. Maybe I need to give it another listen, to try and hear what other people are getting from it. I've listened to all their albums, but nothing from before DSOTM stands out.
@@brettg274 yes, i agree that Meddle is good, just for me personally, Echoes isn't my favorite off the album. David Gilmour said in an interview that Meddle was the album when they sort of found their niche, or something like that. They also did a movie soundtrack in that time period that's pretty good, but I can't remember the name of it.
Pink Floyd didn't pull any punches with this song or the whole album. It's quite a workout listening to this and I get chills every time. Thanks for the journey!
The Animals album that came out in 1977 is a concept album discussing the various types human behaviors, comparing them to animals. Dogs is the second song on the album that discusses the element of humanity that goes the way of the Machiavellian businessman. Discussing the cut-throat life style they lead, always trying to overcome one another to become "top-dog". The final line prior to the first instrumental break. (And in the end you'll pack up and fly down south, hid your head in the sand...") describes what becomes of their life after years of lying, deceiving, and betraying others to get to the top, just a sad old man with no love. But I like to think of Dogs in another light. Those who live on the street, grew up in a troubled household with no guidance and had to make their own way in life. Resorting to what needs to be done for their survival, like a stray dog living day to day. Some of these "dogs" resort to crime to make ends meet, others resort to working blue collar jobs gaining minimum wage to barely scrape by. Others go into the business of law enforcement, seeing the dark side of humanity. "As the fear grows, the bad blood slows and turns to stone", regarding the experiences they take in everyday. Dogs really encapsulates those who venture into the grittier part of humanity, get their hands dirty to keep the machine turning. I think most of us can say we either know a "dog" or are a "dog" themselves. But that's the beauty of Dogs, Animals the album, and Pink Floyd in general. Their music leaves interpretation to the listener as to what they think the message means. I personally didn't know much about Dogs after my first few listens, as my first interpretation was pretty much my second paragraph. Now, the next two tracks, Pigs and Sheep, are a little more linear in their meaning but thats why I love this song and the album as a whole. Great reaction to this, it's a deep track that really needs a few listens to be fully taken in. Hopefully you are open to checking out other artists, especially progressive rock artists, that explore similar themes to Pink Floyd!
Everytime I hear the solos, this comes to my mind: Guitar Solo 1: A big and goofy hound running to catch a rabbit. Guitar Solo 2(harmonized one): A mix of sadness and pity towards the dog. Guitar Solo 3: A old dog struggling to keep on. Keyboard Solo: That floating synth is like being in the ocean, and the repeating "Stone" is actually dragging the character more and more deep into it. The solo himself is a crying dog. Guitar Solo 4: I have no fucking clue. I just dig it.
Floyd is a great at what they do as Zeppelin is great at what they do. 2 totally different ways to approach rock n roll but both are the best! Dark Side of The Moon, Wish You Were Here, and Animals are all superior records.
Canelo, for someone who never heard Floyd ever. Like Jamal. As great as The Wall is, it's a very commercialized version of Pink Floyd. Add Meddle or any earlier Floyd lp.They are all light years away from radio friendly "We Don't Need No Education" or "Comfortably Numb."
@@robertjrobicheau8456 Vera, bring the boys back home, when the tigers broke free, the trial, in the flesh, the thin ice... Only 2 or 3 tracks off of the wall are really mainstream I'm speaking more on the subject matter, when u understand the factors that went into the wall it's a heartbreaking album, I hardly listen to it as an adult cause it brings me to tears
@@robertjrobicheau8456 i agree though nonetheless, Floyd and Zeppelin seem to have a timeless sound... never in the rest of human existence will it be possible to replicate what they created
If I have to pick a favorite song of all time, it is this. The production is immaculate. Audiophiles are absolutely in love with this one. Folk who are not audiophiles can't help but be in love with Gilmore's perfect guitar work. For my money, it is the best guitar ever recorded. If I am on a desert island and only can pick one song to bring with me, it is this one and there isn't a close second.
The last time I ever dropped acid was at the concert in Houston promoting the ANIMALS album. Talk about Tripping, outdoor venue in the summertime and it rained! Needless to say Pink Floyd was spectacular!😎
The closest I got to that was Rodger Waters performing Dark Side of the Moon, with a large bag of joints. I was a new fan, so the first time I heard 'Great Gig in the Sky', was live. I had a full body orgasm, high as a kite, and lazer lights rolling over me, and the voice....!! Pure bliss!
Saw Roger Waters in Houston on 3gs of shrooms. Didn't need it to enjoy, but oh man it was life changing. He played this song as well right when I was peaking.
I've been listening to this my whole life. Watching your reaction makes it like I'm listening again for the first time. Solid insights! This has some of the best guitar work by David Gilmour. I get chills every time I hear it. Thanks for the review!
PF always great. Their songs are certainly capable of standing on an individual basis but this band made their albums to be experienced as a whole. May not be realistic to react to an entire album but definitely recommended for personal time listening.
There's kid's music, which makes up 99% of the stuff out there and then there's grown folk music! When you're ready for the grown people's music Pink Floyd will be waiting there for you!
One of my favourite tune. One of the longest track ever after Echoes. It brings you in another dimension that only Pink Floyd does. I would recommend you Pigs 🐷 or Welcome to the Machine. Thanks for this video and keep going on with your great uploads.
Pink Floyd is loved and well respected all around the world and for good reason their lyrics are true and make sense to everyone and the music is a little bit of everything from everyone
JR/SR years in High School Late 70's sitting in my room with some friends studying the effects of THC thru a water bong while listening to Animals... come on.. welcome to the ride my brother...
By now you've probably heard that you're listening the right way. Pink Floyd was one of the original headphone bands. Magic is made when you're ears are right there next to the music. Obviously Led Zep as well.
My favorite PF albums. Roger Waters was spitting pure venom when he wrote this entire album, and I have to say he's 100% correct. One of the greatest lyricist ever.
Grottgreta for me it’s the line “and when you lose control, you’ll reap the harvest you have sown...” prolly the greatest moment in all of recorded music history. Hair stands up on the back of my neck, every single time.
Agreed! Totally cool and I'm so glad you pointed out they are making you think what the dogs are saying.....it never actually occurred to me after all these years.... Man you are one switched on dude!! 🎶🦊🐑🐷
The reviewer, when honestly delivering an insightful opinion, gets me to re-live my youth. Makes me look forward to this enlightened group of younger people in my advancing age. Thankful for RUclips, and the comments are icing on the cake...to hell with any dietetic empty crap in today's top 10. No, 40...I mean top 100.
I was so lucky to get to go to the Pink Floyd animals concert. It was incredible. What I wish for younger folks is that they could go to more live concerts like we used to. There were concerts all the time but most importantly they were affordable.
This is me and My daughters song. This is my favorite Pink Floyd song of all time and Pink Floyd are my favorite Band. Animals is an album we had on repeat when my little girl was brought home from the hospital and she used to sleep on my chest while we played this. To this day she listens to this album with me and she knows the music at heart. Thank you so much for this. You are amazing
My friend, your reactions are so priceless. I discovered this album when i was 14 years old. I am from Paraguay, South America, tried so hard to understand the lyrics (beacose the leanguage), each sentence i understood was a deep learning. Now i am a 26 PhD student and still learning so much from Floyd. You are in the right path.
Roger Waters is one of-if not the best-lyricists of all time. Not to mention his thought process on arranging visuals and sounds. Period. No one has ever touched my soul like he. A true artist! Then in comes David Gilmour with that guitar, and Mason & Wright with drums & keyboards. Sublime.
I love watching this song move you. It's literally an epic song. When did this come out, 1975? Its truth is even more evident today 45 years later- it's gotten better with age.
It’s getting late and this showed up in my recommended and I was like let’s see what he thinks about the guitar solos and here I am at 4am watching this entire video now 😂 I should have known better
His guitar playing is phenomenal, but I have always loved his vocals as well. He has a better range than Waters. Also his voice intonations, perfect pitch and ability to hold those long notes at times are awesome.
That track is the GOAT never gets old never gets boring been listening to it for 30 years of my life still love it just a masterpiece .. one of your best vids brother much love keep it up
You have to remember Rodger Waters wrote most of pink floyd songs.his lyrics reflect his life experience and imagination.such a gifted writer along with the other guys gifted talents.
I've been a Pink Floyd fan my entire life. My earliest memory of listening to music was to Pink Floyd on a road trip. Thank you Mom and Dad. I was surprised today to find that there is a Pink Floyd song that I've never heard before and mind blown! I think I have a new favorite song
The 1974 album "Crime of the Century" by Supertramp is an equally magnificent concept album exploring the ignorance of youth & the tragedy of a wasted life. It's pure genius.
Watching someone's mind get blown by Pink Floyd is always such an enjoyable experience.
Agreed 100%
Totalmente de acuerdo
That’s why I’m here! Well said!
"Animals" is their best album. Sooooo underrated.
Meddle is the best, In my opinion.
Couldn't agree more!
No Carbon Footprint Animals or Wish You Were Here
I was fifteen, when I heard this record the first time.
Don't know how often I listened to it in the past 43 years.
Love "The Wall" really.
But yes, I agree: "Animals" is in my opinion still the best.
Amazing album, hard to give a title of their best as they're all sooo good, personally my fav is the Wall
This may be one of the best songs of all time. Period.
I love this song so much that when I finally bought an electric guitar after not having one for 20 years I built it with the exact parts and pickups Gilmour used for this album.
One of the hardest hitting for me being a business school graduate. Every line hits me, I do feel like a dog.
Periodt.
Fucking please...
Animals was so brutal, most critics at the time where flabbergasted and didn't seem to get it at all. Its a brilliant album.
This masterpiece of a song accurately describes what’s happening now in 2020

This is in the group of 3 greatest GOAT records I have in my collection. Dark Side of the Moon, Wish you Were Here, and Animals. I would take The Wall to a deserted Island with Beatles White and Zeps Physical Graffiti.
Word.
I like you have everything they've ever recorded. Including the theme for Moore, which I have never opened! Bought my first 8-track of them in 67,started collecting from there. Still have many on 8-track, vinyl. I had recorded hundreds of cassettes, since they always went camping with us . CDs are good they don't have the same warmth as vinyl. As for those listening off the internet,all this music is compressed. Much of it is missing when you hear it!

miko1975guitar Waters wrote all of the tracks on Animals. Lyrics and music. Sang and performed on all. Gilmour only contributed to one track writing with Waters
I remember that. i wasn't there but it made all the telly channels
BRUH!!!
Written almost 45 years ago. As relevant as ever.
Even more relevant. I was late teen early twenties growing up and fully comprehending the messages in many lyrics of the day aka war pigs 100% should wake everyone up . The lies today are 1000% more bombastic than the 1970 😳😳😳
Annd we have one dog with Rabies trying to get elected
Ya cuz time is irrelevant when talking about music or any great ideas 50 years is nothing it may seem like a lot but it’s not shit
This is my favorite Pink Floyd album and it's not even close.
Let me introduce you to The Wall
@@hippityhopotus7475 DSOTM snd Animsls over the wall but it’s splitting heirs as all amazing
Between WYWH and this for me, and it is close.
The fabled strings of David Gilmore’s Guitar will always cut like a knife and comfort like a pillow. Grand
Me: I love Dogs, it's got my favourite Gilmour solo in it.
Friend: Oh really? Which one?
Me: Yes
Lom
Exquisite guitar
Gilmour is so smooth
Genius
Yea, the solo after dogs is the best
After the dogs barking*
It has to be Pigs (three different ones) for me. Anway my all time favourite album is The wall.
Pink Floyd: The music lulls you into a passive state so you can hear the truths of the world you don't want to accept.
I love this man's reactions, absolutely priceless
Thanks🙏🏾
Absolutely.
Ikr?!? I love watching him getting into the music. He has great understanding of the meaning of these songs. Btw, this is my favorite song from the Animals album.
Dogs is my favorite. Deep, Heavy lyrics.
Heidi Clark me too. This song is simply amazing. For me in my youth listening to this was a true journey...
God created the Fender Strat and then created David Gilmour to play it!
In between He gave us Hank Marvin.
Did he not. 😊
Dave deserves his kudos, but HENDRIX was the MASTER of the Strat, hands down! Hendrix was the impetus for a lot of the guitar effects that came later, since players had a hard time recreating what Jimi could do without the effects boxes! Jimi also rewired his own Marshall amps to get a unique sound.
@@chestypullerfan2 So silly talk about Hendrics, when we have Gilmour & PF! Hendrics is a lilliputian in music (I don't remember ALL his songs!), Gilmour is a Giant!
In this album David played a telecaster
Without a doubt, Animals is my favorite Pink Floyd album...it was gifted to me by a friend who didn't want it since it had no radio hits. A life changing event for me, a foolish mistake for him.
I'd send him a card every Christmas from then on thanking him for the present that never stops giving...
Mr. Carlson: What is the name of that orchestra?
Dr.Jonnie Fever: Pink Floyd.
Mr.C: Do I hear dogs?
Dr.JF: I certainly hope so. Cause I sure do.
David Wilkinson I was hoping someone would post the WKRP reference. Well done.
"I don't do requests"
Now it's time for more Jonnie and Less Nessman! Classic line...
@@MattKrogmeier ruclips.net/video/1enfo8zn3_g/видео.html
@@cornfedjuggalo Classic...love it. I've got that episode on a DVD...recorded from air in syndication, so the music is all intact. Coincidentally, that scene is from WKRP's most famous episode, "Turkeys Away."
This song is their masterpiece. They have a ton of great songs and great albums, but this is the best
whenever there is a Pink Floyd reaction I must see it just to remember what an amazing guitar player Dave Gilmore is
It's a concept album based on George Orwell's "Animal Farm". The dogs in the book are the muscle/security that serve and protect the greedy and crooked pigs who run the farm after they kick out the oppressive farmer.
It's one of my favorite books and this is my favorite Pink Floyd album. Both are masterpieces.
Tremendo libro, mi libro favorito
That would explain the whistle for the dogs midway through. Thank you.
My dad gave me his Floyd records when I was like 11 or 12 said I was ready. I knew the music was life changing then as a kid. As I grew older I never stopped listening and as the years continue to roll off the calendar the songs become more and more relevant. No doubt, some of the best music in human history....
You are so lucky to have a Father with such wisdom and foresight, welcome to the world of Pink Floyd. I hope you realise how lucky you are.
Love all Floyd. Pigs thank you
On a really long drive from Philadelphia to Chicago I made my Pop a Pink Floyd fan.. he said it was a soundtrack for a movie that didn't exist but the music fills in all the blanks...
That whole album is so great
I’ve listen to this song a million times, and not once until now have I thought to myself “what are the dogs saying?” in the dogs barking section of the song. I probably would have went on listening to it without thinking about it, if you hadn’t pointed it out. So that opened my mind up to even more wonder. That was cool you mentioned that. And I’m glad you looked up the meaning beforehand, that way you knew exactly what was being talked about as the song went on.
Since you did this song, you should also consider reacting to the song Pigs and the song Sheep. This is from Pink Floyd’s album Animals, which is a concept album, they say it’s based on the book Animal Farm by George Orwell. The album has 3 main songs (4 songs overall, there’s a song called “Pigs On The Wing” but it’s a different sort of thing). These songs deal with 3 different facets of society and liken them to animals. Dogs as you can see is about the businessmen who backstab and perpetuate the “dog eat dog world” idea. The song Pigs is about like the higher up people in social positions of power. And the song Sheep is about the regular everyday people at the bottom of the social ladder who just go on through life doing as their told. In my opinion Dogs is probably the most complex song of the 3 and the biggest one to digest, and seeing as that you’ve already done it, maybe you should go ahead and knock out the other 2 as well. I mean lyrically Pigs might be the most complex one to digest. But in all other departments, like musically, with all the changes throughout the song, and it’s length, and just how vast it is, Dogs is the most complex I think.
Either way, even if you don’t decide to react to the other 2 it’s all good. I still look forward to what ever songs you have in store for future reactions.
-Have a great day
Very well said. Thank you!
@@daveking9393 Agreed! Can't wait until he does Pigs and Sheep!
I always thought, because of the synthesizer modulation, that they almost WERE words mixed with the simulated dog sound in that segment.....further suggested by the rhythm of it, which seems to be in a very preacher-like manner.
Good call regarding the rest of it.
Muy bueno!
Man, I sure wish there was a live video version of this album in concert!!! I really want to see who is playing what and when, the guitars I mean. And how the synthesizer dog sounds are done. I mean I know who plays what aaaarg, never mind........I just wish I could see it.
When I wore a younger man clothes,my friends and I would “relax”and listen to this.On one occasion one of my friends got up to look for the dog that was barking.
I totally did that at Waters In the Flesh tour. I was so into the performance, then the barking started in the speakers to the rear, I turned to look for the dog, then realizing it was part of the song I felt like an idiot. Lol
Tom nice of you to rip off lyrics from Piano Man LOL
I had the same thing happen with a friend of mine, except it was with the Wall.
I'm sorry to say i can't remember the song right now but there's a place where there's a helicopter over head. I had a really good stereo in my truck and we were way out in the strip pits.
Suddenly it gets quiet and you hear the bird and it sounds like it's coming right down on top of us. He literally opened the door to start looking for it when the music started.
He wasn't very familiar with the Floyd and couldn't believe it was coming from a cassette deck. I had to rewind it to prove it. I had a good chuckle but he was slightly pissed because i didn't stop him from getting out. Probably more from me laughing at him.
The Floyd are an experience not just music to be listened to.
@@michaelbronco1023 I know the feeling Michael. I've done that too with a really good sound system I heard dogs barking and I had to look behind me. LOL
@@danielstewart7163 The Happiest Days of Our Lives
This whole album is amazing! it gives me the chills every time.
I knew Jamal was going to be impressed with the lyrics. When Gilmour sang about backstabbing, he got so worked up. And when there was the part of the "sad old man", he realized how not only these lyrics are deep, but also absolutely ruthless. This entire album in general is ruthless, and I love it for that. Great reaction as always. The rabbit hole of classic rock is one we all like to dive.
David Gilmour is unbelievable. Says much with so little.
This album is my favorite guitar work from Gilmour. His guitar simply has unique voice blending gritty rock and smooth emotive licks.
David Gilmour is the reason I started playing guitar. The man is a genius!
This is one of my favorite Pink Floyd songs. "You have to be trusted by the people that you lie to, so that when they turn their backs on you, you'll get the chance to put the knife in" love that line. George Orwell's Animal Farm helped provide some of the inspiration for this album.
There is George Orwell in every album ,,
Imagine being a teen when most of Floyd came out....it was an event. We planned a night around first listen with some primo weed/acid and good alcohol..........I know, sounds terrible but we came thru ok.
Not terrible Dash, the way of the day! Did it all. Hash, weed, blotter and liquid LSD, good booze as you said. Not only Floyd but we were lucky to have so many excellent musicians and bands, not to mention the fact that it'll never happen again. I still own and play vinyl. Loved the aroma when I opened the album. David Gilmour was the soul of the band. Waters was a great lyricist. Nice rapping with ya and remember, "There is no dark side of the Moon really, matter of fact, it's all dark" Peace
@@57darkhorse I highly agree with all you said. It was the way of the day.......so glad we got to experience a magical period. Heck I still buy vinyl. Wish I still did some of the 'other' stuff too, wink
@@AZ-gw8un congrats on being another internet arsehole, well done champ
@@AZ-gw8un it's not a matter of being right or wrong, it's how you went about putting the info across.
@@AZ-gw8un all he said was "Gilmour was the soul of the band".. not the founder. not everyone knows the back story behind every band, we share the news hoping to expand others knowledge on such things. not shove it down their throat with disgust that they didn't know better in the first place. :)
this is the sort of music you listen to in the dark, laying down, a candle or two, with headphones on.
Lay back, relax, and enjoy the ride....
That's fine but this album is not supposed to be relaxing.
I was 23 when this came out, and just a couple years from getting out of the Army. Imagine cracking the cellophane off this and sitting down with your friends and a big bowl to hear for the first time. And no lyric sheets, just listening to what they said. Loved that new album experience.
A lot of truth telling in this song and in the entire album.
Here I sit at 5 am listening to dogs with you, what a great way to start the day. This is my favorite PF album bought it when it came out I was 14 and fell in love with it , I pulled it out two weeks ago for my 57th birthday and put it on the turn table and I love it as much as the first time I heard it. Hopefully you will do the rest of it soon. Great job...♡
Happy Belated Birthday🙏🏾
@@jamelakajamal thx I appreciate it...♡
When I was 14 I bought this album with my birthday money. I no longer have a record player but still have the vinyl.
Yeah this or Dark Side of the Moon are my favorites.
Nice to hear the word turntable. I'm glad you put on an album, I have my component sound system that still sounds great. And have most of my vinyl from back then, and newer versions of albums. But I loved the special effects on that tour. One of my many favorite songs by Floyd. Saw them live 4 times., once at MSG. Happy 57th birthday 🎂
Seen Roger do this song live before...during the Dog part interlude, the band busted out a table and played a round of cards. It was quite awesome really.
Dan Bardos “In the Flesh Live” with the amazing Doyle Bramhall II and Snowy White on guitar. Absolutely amazing DVD
Probably the best iteration of Roger’s live band. Doyle’s blues background was well suited to Gilmour’s parts.
They also had a quick sniff of johnny walker while playing a quick hand of card
I love the Vocoded dog barks! This is my favorite Floyd song, and I HAVE gotten horizontal with this after a bowl.
“If you replaced the dogs barking with the humans, what would they be saying?” Heard this a hundred times and have never been so grateful to hear barking. Great observation!
Multiple David Gilmour guitar solos, what's not to love?
Precisely.
The dogs must be saying something bad because my dog would go insane every time I played this.
Jason Bryce, that's too funny! Mine probably would too, but she's 14 and doesn't hear much anymore. They actually recorded a real dog moaning and howling on one of their albums, the song is called "seamus". It's about the silliest song PF ever did.
They play a dog whistle in this tune, that's why some dogs go crazy. It's a tone dogs can.hear, but humans do not.
@@rorylapidus5772 wow, I didn't think of that. There used to be a commercial for Beggin' Strips dog snacks that would send my dog into a frenzy. The commercial was an animation dog but I was convinced they used one of those whistles that only dogs could hear. We were already talking about Big Brother in another thread earlier. He is present in TV commercials as well as phones and computers.
Well, unless the tweeters in your speakers, through which you play the song, produce sound frequencies above 23 khtz, that is an unlikely scenario.........however, I know that some manufacturers claim such ratings.
Jason Bryce,
Mine’s just crashing next to me. She’s used to my music, and is impervious to weird noises, including dog whistles.
Edit: Well, she’s not impervious to my singing. She just relocated to the other end of the sofa.
If you haven't heard Sheep off this album I so recommend it
You expect him to follow your words? He's not a sheep. MWOORGHHAHAHAAA!!
“Sheep,” and “Pigs, Three Different Ones.”
teppolundgren,
Haven’t seen you at Fil’s in months. Brad has been bullying Lynn, accusing her of being you, and being a man. If I could, I’d ban him from the channel. Did he get ugly with you?
Yes, "Sheep" is the other side of the "Dogs" coin.
@@beachgirl4583 I don't even know who Brad is. And I guess I'm a bit bored with how Fil is constantly trying to find GREAT things about every artist he watches performing.
It doesn't matter what they do. Fil will exaggerate the tiniest detail, whether it's deserved or not. And it feels a bit dishonest to me, as if he's only doing it to get more subscribers. Because subscribers like positive channels...
Pink Floyd is the Best of all history of music
Pink Floyd music is a journey. Saw them in concert in 1988. Just wow!
Best song ever by anyone!
I saw Roger Waters on his Us and Them tour a few years ago and he opened the second half of his set with this! All 17 minutes of it! I could not have been more happily surprised! One of my favorite Floyd songs. The part where he sings "So have a good drown, while you go down, all alone, dragged down by the stone" makes me break out in goosebumps every time.
the first time I heard this song I remember my dad played it and we were driving home late at night in the middle of nowhere coming home from a fishing trip or something and I'll never forget that feeling I got from it just looking out the window into the darkness with my imagination going crazy, now that I've grown up I still play it if we happen to be driving somewhere late at night
Listening to Pink Floyd is like surfing on endless waves of music on a rolling sea.
By far my favorite Pink Floyd album! Stripped down and lean, like a mad max NASCAR. The keyboards are the sounds of being up way past your bedtime and wondering if you're still asleep or waking up and not realizing it... Absolutely brilliant!!!
Yep..”Reclined” is the best way...lost track of how many times me and my friends were lounging on a sofa in my friends basement with the lights low,spliffs on the go and listening to Floyd..good times
Great memories brother=)
Green Gun True that mate👍
Same ✌
I consider it a shame, no, a sin that the farmers of the spliff got greedy for fame, that is the desire to manipulate up to the strongest ever created. I recall rolling a cigarette pack full to take to a concert (hell, to get through the day!) It was a great socially bonding experience to puff and pass and groove on good music. Then the content went from 3% to 23% and higher, and as we got higher the one-hit made us say "I pass". It's been many years since I enjoyed sparking one up. Well, at least we have good memories!
My God yes. I’d go to my mates flat, it’d get late, he’d put on his red lamp and green lamp, Floyd on the stereo.....it was magic. Some 30 years later I can still see it clear as day.......reefer smoke drifting through the light and an amazing feeling of contentment and relaxation. Happy days.
I saw them tour after this came out. It was my first PF show, and I've never forgotten it! Gilmour's guitar was so edgy and raw - it cut like a laser! And this was back before there were volume limits in most arenas, so he was REALLY loud. Dogs remains one of my top PF songs to see live. The lyrics, the solos, the coda at the end - just stunning to see it played well live. Until you experience that you don't really get the full savage intent of it from the studio recording.
Fantastic reaction to one of my favourite songs. Maybe you're ready for Pink Floyd's "Echoes".
Killer track. I suggest watching it off “Live at Pompeii”.
@@brettg274 and Izzy, I absolutely love PF, but I've never cared much for Echoes. To me it seems boring, just going up and down the same 5 consecutive notes over and over. Maybe I need to give it another listen, to try and hear what other people are getting from it. I've listened to all their albums, but nothing from before DSOTM stands out.
@@timothylove9705 - DSOTM is definitely when they hit their stride, but I think Meddle is a pretty solid album.
@@brettg274 yes, i agree that Meddle is good, just for me personally, Echoes isn't my favorite off the album. David Gilmour said in an interview that Meddle was the album when they sort of found their niche, or something like that. They also did a movie soundtrack in that time period that's pretty good, but I can't remember the name of it.
@@timothylove9705 - It was called "More", I have it. It is pretty good, I agree.
Pink Floyd didn't pull any punches with this song or the whole album. It's quite a workout listening to this and I get chills every time. Thanks for the journey!
The Animals album that came out in 1977 is a concept album discussing the various types human behaviors, comparing them to animals. Dogs is the second song on the album that discusses the element of humanity that goes the way of the Machiavellian businessman. Discussing the cut-throat life style they lead, always trying to overcome one another to become "top-dog". The final line prior to the first instrumental break. (And in the end you'll pack up and fly down south, hid your head in the sand...") describes what becomes of their life after years of lying, deceiving, and betraying others to get to the top, just a sad old man with no love.
But I like to think of Dogs in another light. Those who live on the street, grew up in a troubled household with no guidance and had to make their own way in life. Resorting to what needs to be done for their survival, like a stray dog living day to day. Some of these "dogs" resort to crime to make ends meet, others resort to working blue collar jobs gaining minimum wage to barely scrape by. Others go into the business of law enforcement, seeing the dark side of humanity. "As the fear grows, the bad blood slows and turns to stone", regarding the experiences they take in everyday. Dogs really encapsulates those who venture into the grittier part of humanity, get their hands dirty to keep the machine turning. I think most of us can say we either know a "dog" or are a "dog" themselves.
But that's the beauty of Dogs, Animals the album, and Pink Floyd in general. Their music leaves interpretation to the listener as to what they think the message means. I personally didn't know much about Dogs after my first few listens, as my first interpretation was pretty much my second paragraph. Now, the next two tracks, Pigs and Sheep, are a little more linear in their meaning but thats why I love this song and the album as a whole.
Great reaction to this, it's a deep track that really needs a few listens to be fully taken in. Hopefully you are open to checking out other artists, especially progressive rock artists, that explore similar themes to Pink Floyd!
no its their take on George Orwell‘s animal farm and the dogs are the army liveforlivemusic.com/news/pink-floyd-animals-43-years-later/
Everytime I hear the solos, this comes to my mind:
Guitar Solo 1: A big and goofy hound running to catch a rabbit.
Guitar Solo 2(harmonized one): A mix of sadness and pity towards the dog.
Guitar Solo 3: A old dog struggling to keep on.
Keyboard Solo: That floating synth is like being in the ocean, and the repeating "Stone" is actually dragging the character more and more deep into it. The solo himself is a crying dog.
Guitar Solo 4: I have no fucking clue. I just dig it.
Floyd is a great at what they do as Zeppelin is great at what they do. 2 totally different ways to approach rock n roll but both are the best! Dark Side of The Moon, Wish You Were Here, and Animals are all superior records.
Fuck ya i agree
The Wall though!?!!
^ Complete genius ^
But it's hard to hold a candle to any Zeppelin vinyl
Canelo, for someone who never heard Floyd ever. Like Jamal. As great as The Wall is, it's a very commercialized version of Pink Floyd. Add Meddle or any earlier Floyd lp.They are all light years away from radio friendly "We Don't Need No Education" or "Comfortably Numb."
@@robertjrobicheau8456 Vera, bring the boys back home, when the tigers broke free, the trial, in the flesh, the thin ice... Only 2 or 3 tracks off of the wall are really mainstream
I'm speaking more on the subject matter, when u understand the factors that went into the wall it's a heartbreaking album, I hardly listen to it as an adult cause it brings me to tears
@@robertjrobicheau8456 i agree though nonetheless, Floyd and Zeppelin seem to have a timeless sound... never in the rest of human existence will it be possible to replicate what they created
I still wonder how in the hell did they even come to the point of this creation. Epic. Legendary. Timeless
And then i remember
Oh yeah
Its
Pink Floyd
"It's like they make you use your imagination" couldn't of said it better Jamel!
If I have to pick a favorite song of all time, it is this. The production is immaculate. Audiophiles are absolutely in love with this one. Folk who are not audiophiles can't help but be in love with Gilmore's perfect guitar work. For my money, it is the best guitar ever recorded. If I am on a desert island and only can pick one song to bring with me, it is this one and there isn't a close second.
Yes it's absolutely incredible 💯
The last time I ever dropped acid was at the concert in Houston promoting the ANIMALS album. Talk about Tripping, outdoor venue in the summertime and it rained! Needless to say Pink Floyd was spectacular!😎
Actually you don't need to drop acid when you listen to Pink Floyd. Their music works like a drug. It is magical.
@@victorstefanovsky6902 He never said you need to? It just enhances it
Hahahaha me too dang you must be from my era the seventies were great times the younger generation just don't know
The closest I got to that was Rodger Waters performing Dark Side of the Moon, with a large bag of joints. I was a new fan, so the first time I heard 'Great Gig in the Sky', was live. I had a full body orgasm, high as a kite, and lazer lights rolling over me, and the voice....!! Pure bliss!
Saw Roger Waters in Houston on 3gs of shrooms. Didn't need it to enjoy, but oh man it was life changing. He played this song as well right when I was peaking.
I've been listening to this my whole life. Watching your reaction makes it like I'm listening again for the first time. Solid insights! This has some of the best guitar work by David Gilmour. I get chills every time I hear it. Thanks for the review!
PF always great. Their songs are certainly capable of standing on an individual basis but this band made their albums to be experienced as a whole. May not be realistic to react to an entire album but definitely recommended for personal time listening.
He could make a series of videos. One after the next.
@@davidwilkinson8431 lol
I get goosebumps everytime I hear that solo
There's kid's music, which makes up 99% of the stuff out there and then there's grown folk music! When you're ready for the grown people's music Pink Floyd will be waiting there for you!
One of my favourite tune. One of the longest track ever after Echoes. It brings you in another dimension that only Pink Floyd does. I would recommend you Pigs 🐷 or Welcome to the Machine. Thanks for this video and keep going on with your great uploads.
Filipe Rodrigues welcome to the machine is the boss
Filipe Rodrigues atom heart mother is another great behemoth of a song
Thank you. That’s all I have to say. We all need a lot more from Pink Floyd.
Greetings from Managua, Nicaragua.
Pink Floyd is loved and well respected all around the world and for good reason their lyrics are true and make sense to everyone and the music is a little bit of everything from everyone
Flor de Cana!
Ohhhhhhhh MAN!
NOW YOU'VE GONE AND DONE IT!!!!
My favorite PF album right here!!!
"The businessman out there roaming the streets looking for the prey" - you said it so right, brother
JR/SR years in High School Late 70's sitting in my room with some friends studying the effects of THC thru a water bong while listening to Animals... come on.. welcome to the ride my brother...
By now you've probably heard that you're listening the right way. Pink Floyd was one of the original headphone bands. Magic is made when you're ears are right there next to the music.
Obviously Led Zep as well.
if I was stranded on island with one album animals would be it
A new experience everyday. Never a dull moment.
My favorite PF albums. Roger Waters was spitting pure venom when he wrote this entire album, and I have to say he's 100% correct. One of the greatest lyricist ever.
Bruh when he sings "The bad blood slows and turns to stone" and that echo effect always, always gets me.
Grottgreta for me it’s the line “and when you lose control, you’ll reap the harvest you have sown...” prolly the greatest moment in all of recorded music history. Hair stands up on the back of my neck, every single time.
Animals is absolutely, positively and without question my favorite Pink Floyd album. Please consider reviewing "Pigs (Three Different Ones)"
Bro! Been watching you for a minute. You're by far the best "reaction" guy on YT.
Thank you
it makes my heart fell good to see some hear this for the first time just as I did when this bad boy came out you rock brother.
Agreed! Totally cool and I'm so glad you pointed out they are making you think what the dogs are saying.....it never actually occurred to me after all these years.... Man you are one switched on dude!! 🎶🦊🐑🐷
The reviewer, when honestly delivering an insightful opinion, gets me to re-live my youth. Makes me look forward to this enlightened group of younger people in my advancing age. Thankful for RUclips, and the comments are icing on the cake...to hell with any dietetic empty crap in today's top 10. No, 40...I mean top 100.
I can't believe you did DOGS !!!! WOW. ..Thankyou. ...Enjoy..😉😎
I was so lucky to get to go to the Pink Floyd animals concert. It was incredible. What I wish for younger folks is that they could go to more live concerts like we used to. There were concerts all the time but most importantly they were affordable.
This is me and My daughters song. This is my favorite Pink Floyd song of all time and Pink Floyd are my favorite Band. Animals is an album we had on repeat when my little girl was brought home from the hospital and she used to sleep on my chest while we played this. To this day she listens to this album with me and she knows the music at heart. Thank you so much for this. You are amazing
"Reclined" is one word for it.
On your own time, you should watch "live in Pompeii". It's an amazing live performance
My friend, your reactions are so priceless. I discovered this album when i was 14 years old. I am from Paraguay, South America, tried so hard to understand the lyrics (beacose the leanguage), each sentence i understood was a deep learning. Now i am a 26 PhD student and still learning so much from Floyd. You are in the right path.
Roger Waters is one of-if not the best-lyricists of all time. Not to mention his thought process on arranging visuals and sounds. Period. No one has ever touched my soul like he. A true artist! Then in comes David Gilmour with that guitar, and Mason & Wright with drums & keyboards. Sublime.
Yes I have to agree this album is just phenomenal 💯
only Neil Peart of Rush can compete with the lyrical mastery 😊
I love watching this song move you. It's literally an epic song. When did this come out, 1975? Its truth is even more evident today 45 years later- it's gotten better with age.
hahahaha, dont listen too much floyds, can be addicted, its a heavy drug.
My best David Gilmour solo for me. He literally owned the song. Keep it coming 👊
It’s getting late and this showed up in my recommended and I was like let’s see what he thinks about the guitar solos and here I am at 4am watching this entire video now 😂 I should have known better
lol me too
Me three, lol
Gotta say my favorite part is when Gilmour sings. Of course he IS my favorite, so I'm biased, but DAMN
His guitar playing is phenomenal, but I have always loved his vocals as well. He has a better range than Waters. Also his voice intonations, perfect pitch and ability to hold those long notes at times are awesome.
Pink Floyd is Always a Come-to-Church experience.... and good therapy
Rogers vocal part is so scathing and accusatory. It’s my favorite part of the song set aside the phenomenal guitar work.
I have always thought that the repeated echo of stone ends up sounding like help
That track is the GOAT never gets old never gets boring been listening to it for 30 years of my life still love it just a masterpiece .. one of your best vids brother much love keep it up
Thanks🙏🏾
You have to remember Rodger Waters wrote most of pink floyd songs.his lyrics reflect his life experience and imagination.such a gifted writer along with the other guys gifted talents.
I've been a Pink Floyd fan my entire life. My earliest memory of listening to music was to Pink Floyd on a road trip. Thank you Mom and Dad. I was surprised today to find that there is a Pink Floyd song that I've never heard before and mind blown! I think I have a new favorite song
It's the best experience
Pigs is my favorite.. It's one long song this album.
This is what I listened to in high school
Dogs, you mean..:) This comes off like an anti-Socialism thing..Owell!
The 1974 album "Crime of the Century" by Supertramp is an equally magnificent concept album exploring the ignorance of youth & the tragedy of a wasted life. It's pure genius.
I love Supertramp. I saw them in Green Bay in the 70s. When the concert was over, they chose Pacabel to pipe out in the stadium as people left.
Breakfast in America is also excelente
I love the expressions on your face during the solos when they throw that stank on it
Pink Floyd Animals, my all time favorite Floyd album. Thanks so much!
Awesome choice! EVERY Pink Floyd album is a sonic masterpiece! Brilliant! 😎✌🏼❤️
