~Tapping into Your Potential Where Others Saw None~
It took three great ladies in live version to sing what Clare Torry did and invented in studio version.
No topping Clare Torry’s original version. But I think any of these three ladies could have tackled all three parts. I honestly think that David Gilmour wanted all three to have their place in the spotlight. He’s always appreciated all of the artists in his band(s) and given them appreciation.
Clare Torry on the original cannot be topped.
It is VERY difficult (basically impossible) to live over-dub tracks like Clare's studio tracks were.
I think they all could have done this alone. But they all deserved their spotlight moment.
@@mikewatts867 Sorry Mike but your dead wrong! I have seen Gilmore try to perform Great Gig in The Sky with a few others and no one and I mean no one has or can come even close to Clare Torry, You can tell just by isolating these three that they can't do what Clare did.
Check out the album version my friend.
This one is good, but the original is sung by a single person, Miss Clare Torry, and she will blow you away.
The message is to portray the 7 emotions of grief or the feelings involved before you die. Shock or Disbelief, denial, anger, bargaining, guilt, depression and acceptance. Knowing this, listen to the song and you can understand how her voice flows beautifully between every emotion.
That is not the case. The truth is the great gig in the sky is GOD. The song is about the pain from losing a loved one in a war fought over religion. That is right from David Gilmour himself.
@@AliasMark69 the song is so moving it can be interpreted any way a person feels it
@@kevinkennedy8451 There is only ONE true meaning as David Gilmour said himself.
the journey trough the 7 feelings is so transforming... Try this song after ending a relationship...:a key of healing ..😇😈🔥🌟.
I imagine half of the comments are going to tell you this, man; and they are right. I'm not saying there's anything wrong with this performance... but Clare Torrys' performance was legendary. Iconic... for so many good people.
peace and love.
Right there with you!
As great as these ladies are (and I saw them live on this tour in 1994), go back and listen to the studio version again.
I'm not sure how many of the comments you read back then, but when you realize that it was one woman, and that she did it all ad-lib, in just two takes...!! That is possibly my all-time favorite vocal performance.
But these ladies were great, and the entire concert was insanely amazing! 😳🤪🤘😎
We were at the same concert :D So I was 15 in Isle 13 center seat :D Best night of my life!
@@falarine Very cool. Count me at 22 in the nosebleed seats at Arrowhead Stadium. I've seen a lot of reactions but never any mention of just how bright it was when that ball opened up all the way. I think I still have a blind spot.
@@rizipt The arena I was at had giant pigs on the sides of the stage, but test when shine on your crazy diamond come on a huge disco ball came down. I think I was at the silver dome. I swear I was 13, but maybe they didn’t have a concert in 92.
Delicate Sounds of Thunder tour for me, 20 June, 1989, Frankfurt Festhalle, Frankfurt, Germany. Still have my ticket stub and the program book. Had a couple t-shirts but one had been torn up in the box because of box staples, the other wore out over time and use. Also have a scarf like item.
@@rizipt In this video, the ball was not working correctly.
It should have opened completely while he was jamming. It should have been reflecting stripes around the venue. That's the super bright light you mentioned, as each stripe hit you.
This one only opened completely at the end of the song, and as I recall it stopped spinning by then.
"Sing like Claire Torry" - its just not possible.
These ladies did a fine job, but CT is on another level.
Back in O.C. Calif when I was 27 my wife heard a commercial on the radio about a P.F. show coming up. Knowing I am a Floyd fan she called the radio station (KMET - LA, “The Mighty Met”) to get information on the concert, The DJ on live radio Cynthia Fox…. said...."Congratulations, YOU are caller number 10, YOU just won tickets to the show and the Sound Check Party before the show"...
I met David Gilmour back stage. He gave us both a signed album that I have in my music room. We talked for 22 minutes. I called him…“The Master Of The Stratocaster” He smiled. I told him his music will stand the test of time with anything from Beethoven or Mozart. He smiled even bigger. I asked if I could shake both his hands that make such great guitar solos, he smiled bigger and said “Sure” and shook both hands at the same time, making a cross between us, I smiled HUGE. I asked him to describe his technique of playing guitar, he replied… “I strike a note, bend it, shake it and then release it”…. Yes, he does that quite well, better than any other guitarist I know. . I told him in my eyes he’s a “Legend“. He thanked me and said “Enjoy the show”…. during the concert after the song “Money” he looked right at me and said…. “On saxophone, another Legend, Mr. Scott Page” … acknowledging my comment to him. It is my favorite moment in over 300 shows I’ve seen.
All of us fortunate enough to have seen this show live were in a TRANCE.... MESMERIZED the entire show... as you can imagine. We walked out saying.... What did we just witness? That was out of this world incredible.
Yes, folk, Claire Torrey's version was amazing. However, to sing this live day after day on a tour would be extremely difficult. Especially when providing other background vocals through the set. So you split it between three performers and you get an amazing performance each show for months on end.
True enough. But for the sake of the song and its first listen, Clare is your go to version.
Pat Peterson did the live touring vocals.
Exactly!!
nothing beats the album version . .it is pure perfection ..
I was born in 1977 and my dad was the biggest Floyd fan I've ever known. He's told me that after putting me to bed as a toddler he would come check on me, and my bedroom wall being behind the living room speakers is where he would find me curled up. He would pick me up but only after the ALBUM was over and put me back in bed. And I never stirred. I don't remember it, but with the love that I have for them to this day, I'm not surprised.
My oldest brother and I trekked through a heavy snow in 1973 to get to Musicland so he could buy The Dark Side of the Moon album. I was 10 (I’m 59 now) and he was 13.
Still have that album!
The Studio version with Clare Torry, you must listen to. The lady in the concert did a great job, Clare Torry is unbelievable. When you listen to it on your own, you’ll see.
Always enjoy your reactions! I was there. I'm old. And I've never forgotten bringing the much-awaited album home in a rush, getting friends in, and just sitting (floating!) in silence while the album took us all on a ride. The amazing thing is, the album almost never got produced. The record company hated it (too advanced for their minds) and only after pressure from the band did they agree to print 25k albums. Needless to say it blew up big time and the execs had to eat crow. Their concerts are almost unsurpassed, but no matter the talent, there is nothing better than the studio recording. Claire, of course, is a bonafide legend. Dark Side still moves after 50 years!!! I just wish I could hear it for the first time again. Meltdown with 15 people. Take care LFR. I'll be watching your other reactions for sure.
So powerful and soulful… 5 stages of grid without words!
Grief,lol .Don't worry we all understand you though.
They were so good to see in person. One of my favorite memories❤❤
I have seen Pink Floyd Live 4 times… I saw this same show in N.Y. 1994. The concert brochure said the stage is 120 feet wide. It takes a crew of 60 technicians three days to set up the entire lights and all. The concert schedule required that there had to be three entire crews to keep up. They leap froged each other for 92 shows with 20 Trucks per crew and a total staff of 195. The tour cost the promoters $98.MILLION to put on, but the total profit was $260 MILLION…
I have seen Pink Floyd 4 times. Nick Mason’s drumming is incredible and matches Gilmour’s guitar emotions while Richard Wright takes us on a Magic Carpet Ride of tones that form the foundation of it all.
It wasn't just the stage and lights either... they set up a sound system custom-designed for each venue, which was 360-degree surround, and had sound baffling to prevent the sound from speakers on one side from interfering with the sound on the other side...
It sounded amazing! 😳
I've never heard another concert like it.
@@mr.knowitall6440 Agreed. The sound was incredible. Best of any show I've ever seen, even the best for P.F.
Check out Comfortably Numb LIVE at the Pulse Concert (1994). The extended guitar solo and spectacular light show combine for an unforgettable performance.
Gotta listen to the album version - the original and still the best - by one lady....
Man oh man , you picked the wrong version . The original studio version from Dark Side is BRILLIANT and the girls are trying here but not even close. Really ! honestly and yes so much so that you SHOULD go there !
Who doesn't know the famous British band STATUS QUO and their songs are ROCKIN ALL OVER THE WORLD, IN THE ARMY NOW, RED SKY
PINK FLOYD, "GREAT GIG IN THE SKY". About the dying moments thru the emotions and vocals pain, frustration, regret, coming to the realization as on album Claire quietly accepts her fate and echoes into the beyond.
Floyd. ❤️ so amazing thanks for the post.
Your facial expressions are priceless! Especially at 2:45 and when you realized they switched singers at 3:55 - Love your reaction videos!
Ok.. I'm going to upset a few people here.
I was 23 when DSOM was released and I was blown away by Clare's vocals for TGGITS. She did it without any defining instructions - make it up as you go along as it were. Two takes, I think. Just fucking brilliant.
These three (Sam Brown, Durga McBroom, Claudia Fontaine) did it live, no retakes, in front of thousands, and it was being recorded. In the live performance you see the emotion, which adds to it for me.
Yes, Clare's was superb, but so was this - for completely different reasons. Enjoy them both.
I couldn't agree more.
not only should you watch Pink Floyd, live, but also David Gilmour, as a solo artist. i recommend 'On An Island', live on the 'Remember that Night' concert, with Crosby and Nash as backing singers. also, 'In Any Tongue' live at Pompeii, 2016, 'Fat Old Sun', live at Gdansk, 'Great Day For Freedom', also live at Gdansk, 'Faces Of Stone', live at Pompeii, 2016 and finally, 'Where We Start', live at Gdansk. they're all fantastic songs
Oh dude. If you liked this version, you have done yourself a disservice by not listening instead to the original from Dark Side of the Moon, which soars high above this one by orders of magnitude. I suppose if I'd never heard the DSOTM version I would probably like this, but having been spoiled my entire life with Clare Torry's inspired and soul-spinning rendition(which was spontaneously done off-the-cuff in one take, by the way), this version leaves me ice cold. I saw this performance in concert in person, having been at the concert and even in person, I cringed at how relatively sterile and emotionally flat her performance was compared to the original. No disrespect to the lady who performed this because Clare Torry is virtually impossible to mimic, but you missed an opportunity at passing up the DSOTM version instead.
Don't Pink Floyd often block studio versions so the live versions are the only way out. Of course I may be way off here...
@@itsmeagain1745 I don't think so. Perhaps sometimes. But I've seen countless Pink Floyd reactions, including GGITS from Dark Side. So for the most part, I think Floyd's safe.
@@jeffmcdonald5901 OK - thanks
I like this version better than the original. Sam Brown and the second singer are hitting me way more
The first female singer is Sam Brown, daughter of 69s singer Joe Brown. One of my favourite songs by her is "Stop". Maybe try it?
My favorite recording artists. 54 years strong!
This was my favorite when I was 14 standing on my bed in front of the mirror pretending I was her with my hairbrush as my microphone.
I love you man it's defo poetry!! Heard of them first when I was 17 and that was it!!!! Top class stunning!!! You know when you're a teenager you think no-one understood you I though Pink Floyd did really and they did
Awe man, lowkey my favorite song from Dark Side of the Moon. You HAVE TO check out the recorded version. Even if there’s no reaction video, it’s amazing!
I had never seen that echoes until your reaction. That jam at the end was the funkiest sh*t ever.
If you want to actually SEE the Original lady Clare Torry perform this live, check out Pink Floyd Live at Knobworth. Clare is one special lady and a true gift.
I think Gilmour liked the last gal because he quit playing just to watch her towards the end. P.S. There are a lot of people who say this song is very similar to the 5 stages of dying. Denial not having anyone singing and the music still playing then Coming in with fire and passion as they rage about it, then taking it down a notch then bargaining in the middle. Then working your way through the depression and finally getting to acceptance of your fate at the end. Clare Torry did it better, but they did it very well too.
What happened to your face Van!🤣. Priceless...
If you like Floyd give David Gilmour some love to his solo work. Not big productions but musically you can hear how good his guitar work. Dave's " live at Gdansk" Take a Breathe, On an Island, the Blue, Echoes ( last time he would play this do to Rick death Keyboards. all tens. Dave " live at Pompeii" In any Tongue" rattle that lock" last time he plays " Comfortably numb" ( over 125 million views) Dave the only person to play in the Amphitheater since 79 AD. twice. any song from these to solo will be well worth seeing.
The original recording was one woman who sang the whole thing, and she had to make it up on the fly since the band was late (I may be wrong about that), but they had some sort of delay and she had to go in and record in one take.
Sam Brown could kick it out, she had such power in her voice.
I totally agree. No hate needed here. We are all brothers and sisters. No need for hate anywhere. New subscriber from UKL. Doing a great job there my friend. Keep em coming.
The original recording is just one lady. Clare Torry.
Pink Floyd is the cerebral band of rock.
Hello Cody Wyoming! I saw Pink Floyd in Denver and it blew my mind🤠
I can't imagine how difficult it would be to sing something that has no words.
You need to hear Pink Floyd’s studio versions before hearing/seeing them. Yes, headphones but Way WAY BETTER in the studio!!!!
Your reaction when you noticed the vocalist change was awesome! HA HA
This is a lesson for not only you but for everyone.......never assume anything. Sometimes things aren't as they appear to be.
Dude. Pink Floyd IS their own GENRE...
Great Choice, this is one of the album’s that changed my music direction
You have to listen to the original. These women were INCREDIBLE no doubt. ,
Song never fails to light up my spine. Girl changed her whole color to mess with you hahaha
1st one up is Sam Brown. An artist with her own hits. One being 'Stop'
Beautiful. Just beautiful.
Please, the album version for this one, please! You are seeing the name Claire Torry....you must hear her, it will blow your mind. Also continuity is key with ALL Pink Floyd. The less interruptions the better.
You should check out how that song was made. They called a talent agency, a woman showed up and they told her to just sing along with the instruments. I believe they used the first take.
She improvised it all.
See David Gilmour sing SHINE ON YOU CRAZY DIAMOND live with Crosby and Nash EXCELLENT
To get a better understanding about “Pink Floyd” music you should get some background. Once you start at the beginning, everything will make more sense and you will have even more of a appreciation for them as not only musicians but as humans, regarding SYD BARRETT, the Original Lead Vocalist/Writer/Guitarist of the band. SYD BARRETT played a very important role. The best way to do that is to watch each band member do an interview, where SYD is mentioned. SYD always comes up and there is much Love.
Every album has a reference or even a tribute to SYD BARRETT. The very last song recorded with SYD is called JUGBAND BLUES. It pretty much sums up the tragedy. The words are what and where SYD’s mind was at. I cried for him as he knew it was over in his 20’s.
Got to be run like hell from the same concert,superb mate🏴
Love that you found Floyd.
No doubt whatsoever that these young ladies learned this in church.
Bro, the original (studio) version (on Dark Side of the Moon) is the BEST. Sung by Clare Torrey, recorded on the 2nd take!
No disrespect to these beautiful voices.....but Clare Torry..... masterful!!!!!!
2:40 Van's eyes - these ladies are amazing!
I don't think you've done it yet, but "Coming Back to Life" is some of Gilmour's greatest guitar work, and it's also from the Pulse tour.
Hey Van.... Seriously, your subscribers will react like never before.....4 black brothers with a white drummer created this ICONIC Masterpiece from the 60’s Psychedelic Era Trust me…. You do not want your life to end without hearing this song.
“TIME HAS COME TODAY“- The Chambers Brothers - Album Long version, then Live. PLEASE and Thank You.

I told my wife this is the song that I want played on repeat at my funeral. Also if you want a song about the dark side of all of us listen to Billy Joe's stranger.
Favorite Floyd song comfortably numb classic
Hey you want a rarely covered Pink Floyd song try " When the tigers broke free" which tells the story of Roger Waters loss of his father in WW2 .
Funny that you mention that she's singing at the "Pearly Gates" . . . . . . it's ALL improv and . . . they told Clare to imagine that she was dying and it was all her, after that.
So this is why they call it the opinion this version is actually the best I want it played on my deathbed
Definitely need to listen to the studio version
A must!!!
nope this version is the best and I have seen them all
Pink Floyd live? How about "Run Like Hell" from the Pulse concert 1994 I believe!
I seen Pink Floyd I think it was 1984 in South Philly I ain't been right since you ain't never going to get no junk with Pink Floyd straight masterpieces all the time credit David gilmour
You've got to hear the studio original version. Clare Torrey blows them all away.
Mother is another one of my favorite PF songs :D
You can mute the wizard of oz., and the soundtrack will go with the whole story. Trippy✌🏽
"She sounded like a black woman".....wait for it, wait for it, wait for it.....There she is.
Pink Floyd is almost its own genre.
Listen to the Album, Its Clare Torry, who did it in ONE TAKE & asked if it was Ok!!!
LOOOOVE this song! Another great live one would be "Brain Damage/Eclipse" its the closing track from Dark Side of the Moon. Cheers!
Clara Torey she's the original, the studio álbum is even greather !!!
Shout out to Clare Torry the original voice.
If it matters at all she was white.
Look to the music of the Shetlands for gospel singing
Any Live Pulse song is amazing.
I saw them as women yelling back saying, you know what we had to deal with as women saying, "What the he11" did you have us go through all that?
I love what you said, “You gotta get rid of all the hate in your heart in order to listen to this song.” 😍
The problem with this is that the singers here are trying to reproducing, with 3 singers, what the original (single) singer, Claire Torrey, did all by herself. Claire wasn't just trying to put down a nice free-flowing melody, she was acting out the 5 stages of dying:
1. Denial
2. Anger
3. Bargaining
4. Depression
5. Acceptance
Go back and listen to the album/studio version and you will DEFINITELY be much more impressed, possibly even cry ... many chicks AND dudes do. No one has ever done it the way Claire did, or will ever. You owe it to yourself, Van !!! Do it !!! Do it NOW !!! 😊
Keep those headphones on and check out David Gilmore live at Pompei...start to finish
Pulse concert. Brilliant.
The studio version even better, original singer
"High Hopes" on the Remember that night Live
The only song that makes you feel every emotion possible, all in a few minutes!
Solid as always. Take a listen to Eva Avila with Brit Floyd doing this. These voices are a true gift to music lovers.
HIGH HOPES in the Version of David Gilmour Live at Gdansk
Dude...you didn't blink for 20 seconds, at one point, during the first singer! I thought your camera froze 😂😂
I was in my teens when I first heard this in the early 80's. I fell instantly in love with 'the voice'!
One of the best tunes ever written and one of the best performances also unbelievable 😍 Please check out the Atom version its properly properly superb 👌
With all due respect, - The "Atom" version? Really? How about Dark Side of the Moon? That's like saying check out the Beatles For Sale version of I Am the Walrus. I'm liking to think that was just a typo. I'm not beyond such mistakes myself, so I don't mean any disrespect, but we need to direct the LFRs in the right direction, not to an album that has no Great Gig on it. Peace dude.
@@jeffmcdonald5901 if you think Atoms version isn’t up to scratch that’s your opinion! My opinion is Atoms version is probably the best not including the original! That’s my opinion on it!! 👍
@@kevinlawes591 Sorry brother. You misunderstand me. I'm just pointing out your mistake in saying it's from Atom Heart Mother. It's Dark Side of the Moon. That's all I was saying. Just a friendly correction is all I meant. Clare Torry's version is the one we're both talking about and it's from Dark Side of the Moon. Not Atom Heart Mother. If we truly want him to react to the best version, we need to correctly steer him to the correct album is all I'm saying. Peace. No disrespect intended. We're both talking about the greatest version there is and it's wonderful.
@@jeffmcdonald5901 Sorry Jeff was knackered from work yesterday my apologies for being a grumpy crank! Words and the way they come across via text format doesn't help the situation sometimes anyway once again I apologise and please check out the Atom version of this song! Enjoy mate 👍
@@kevinlawes591 It's quite alright. I know that in text form the emotional context of what someone writes is subject to whatever the reader's imagination injects into it, regardless of whether it was the intended stress or not. Reading my initial message, I can see how you could have taken it as a snotty criticism. I should have been more strategic with my words.
For anyone interested, Clare Torry talks about recording this track in this interview. ruclips.net/video/mIW7xZSlZoM/видео.html
"She sound like a black woman"....wait for it...wait for it...wait for it.....There she is.
The studio version is the one for this one
Coming Back to Life.............LIve at Pulse. Great Gif is about the stages of realizing you are dying. First there is rage and fear and then you see her evolve to acceptance.
Clair Tory was amazing...the original singer
