Theres beauty in this song!!! I READ ALL COMMENTS AND ALL REACTIONS COMING🖤🖤 THANK YOU TO EVERYONE
Here's a couple if you want some to react to:-
Supertramp "School"
Beatles "Helter Skelter"
Ram Jam "Black Betty"
Led Zeppelin "Black Dog"
Blue Oyster Cult "Don't Fear (the reaper)"
Pink Floyd "Shine on You Crazy Diamond 1-5"
Yes😂for being young, you got it right away, most don't 😂❤over bearing Mother.
I say it all the time I know, but as a father with 2 daughters and a son. I hope my son grows up to have a mind like yours. You are a 20 year old with an old soul.
Me too. I'm a mother and have young grandchildren, and this guy totally impressed me. Doesn't seem 20. Very emotionally mature and seems to have a lot of stuff figured out.
A lot of adult reacters don't seem to get pink Floyd's music it's great to see a young person like you getting it
You are quick, smart, empathetic , young and all the things. Yes congratulations to your generation! I have some hope watching you . Just from a Boomer. We had good intentions, bad politicions, complicated times and handed it to you cause it’s still going on unresolved. I hope you do a better job, but I’m still worried.
Parenting is the most difficult and rewarding thing. Great reaction, you nailed it.
I've seen a couple of your reactions so far. Im kind of amazed at the amount of wisdom you seem to have for such a young age
Clearly you are a product of your parents efforts and it looks to me as if they did a damned fine job. Your turning out to be a Son that will make them so very proud.
Not only are you picking up on the message of this song much faster than I did when I first heard it, but I REALLY want to commend you for the praise and appreciation you showed in your comments toward your parents! That is truly great to see from a young man your age! “Honor your father and mother (which is the first commandment with a promise), that it may go well with you and that you may have a long life on the earth.” (Ephesians 6:2-3)
Religion has nothing to do with honouring your parents.
@@geofftottenperthcoys9944 Absolutely correct! God's commandment to “honor your father and mother” (Exodus 20:12; Deuteronomy 5:16; Ephesians 6:1-3) applies to *all* of mankind (as *every* command of God does), regardless of whether someone believes or rejects it as true. “Now we know that whatever [God’s] law says, it says to those who are under the law, that *every mouth* may be stopped, and *all the world* may become guilty before God” (Romans 3:19). No one’s religion or lack thereof will get them off the hook for failing to honor their parents or for disobeying any of God’s other commands. “Therefore, by the deeds of the law no flesh will be justified in His sight, for by the law is the knowledge of sin” (Romans 3:20). Thankfully, God has provided a remedy - full pardon of sins and justification in His sight - for *all* who accept the gospel message as true, which is “the power of God to salvation for everyone who believes” (Romans 1:16).
“But now the righteousness of God apart from the law is revealed, being witnessed by the Law and the Prophets, even the righteousness of God, through faith in Jesus Christ, to all and on all who believe. For there is no difference; for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, being justified freely by His grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus, whom God set forth as a propitiation by His blood, through faith, to demonstrate His righteousness, because in His forbearance God had passed over the sins that were previously committed, to demonstrate at the present time His righteousness, that He might be just and the justifier of the one who has faith in Jesus.” (Romans 3:21-26)
You are spot on with your interpretation of the lyrics! I love the fact that you are experiencing this song for the first time and totally comprehending the deep connection between a mother and her son. You do not need any further explanation of the songs meaning. Enjoy it for what it is, and be grateful you had two parents to guide you...
Great reaction and interpretation. Thanks for sharing your observations.
okay young man....I'm a looong time Floydian and I have to say; your parents must be exceedingly darned proud of the amazing, well spoken, empathetic, smart, just incredible young man you are! I've watched a couple of your videos now; Time grabbed my eye first. But this, this reaction - you are truly an exceptional young man with a good understanding of the world around you. So impressive, I love your dive into the lyrics, you really got this song - how a Mother's love can become something not wonderful if we're not careful and instead of soothing it can become smothering. Kudos to you, you just got another subscriber!
The Wall as an album is open to the listener's interpretation.
A couple years later the movie was released giving the band's insight into exactly the motivation and meaning of the songs included. It is, indeed, a journey through a troubled mind. You won't be disappointed when you take the time for the film.
I strongly agree! I have to watch it again.
But don't watch the movie before understanding (in your own way) the album.
The live video of this song from The Wall tour is really good!
This song reminds me of myself & my son so much. That last line kills me every time!.... Your parents must so proud of you 😊
This was the music we came up on. Saw Pink Floyd at Madison Square Garden in 1977!
Great reaction video - thank you!
It's nice to see a young person understand as well as you do. Most don't.
This album is a story of a British Rock Star named Pink who's father died in WWII. The Wall is a psychological barrier that Pink has constructed to protect him from harm even though he himself develops into a Lunatic from achieving fame.
There is a Movie "The Wall" starring Bob Geldoff om youtube.
I totally agree that your parents did a GREAT job raising you!
I have watched a few of your videos now. I love the way you really listen to the lyrics and also tell us your interpretations. With the 70's songs you were reacting to that I watched there can be many different ways to interpret. I love seeing young people discovering the magic of the 70's music and actually really absorbing it all !!!
This is the music era I grew up in. I truly appreciate all your insightful reactions. At your age, I often only heard the music but missed the meaning. You are way ahead of the crowd.
WOW. Your maturity and incredible ability to read into the message of this song is IMPRESSIVE. After you hear the rest of this album, and/or see the film, you will learn how very ACCURATE you are. Absolutely fantastic reaction.
Ur a very wise young man. Gives me hope for the future. 😉
Quickly becoming one of my favourite reactors. 🔥👍🏼
As a GenX'er, ive lived this song and built a WALL around my heart to not let anyone in .
As a Gen Xer I feel ya❤
I have done the same
I personally feel this song goes back to Syd Barrett. He was one of the founding members of Pink Floyd but he had a mental breakdown in 1967-1968 and was forced to leave the band, his friend David Gilmour took his place. Syd tried resurrecting his music career doing a couple of solo albums both produced by David Gilmour and Roger Waters of Pink Floyd but his solo career never really took off. He ended up quitting music and going to live with his mom till she died, and he lived alone, looked after by his sister until he died in 2006 from complications of Diabetes. Check out some of the stuff from Pink Floyd's first album Piper at the Gates of Dawn Syd is on that one and a couple songs from their second album Saucerful of Secrets also feature Syd the video for Jugband Blues he basically thanks the band for thinking he's not there. Syd showed up in the studio when Floyd was recording a song about him called Shine on You Crazy Diamond from the Wish You Were Here album and he had changed so much the guys didn't even know who he was till about 45 minutes someone realized it was Syd. Such a sad story but anyway I think this song kind of references Syd and his desire to just avoid life and his attachment to his mom.
Add Pink Floyd "Wish You Were Here" to your listening experience! Glad you are enjoying this great music!
You are wise beyond your years ❤️
remember, roger has his issues with his parents and he's writing/singing about a musician with mommy and daddy issues.
the most powerful song[narrative] is in the movie but not the album, "When the Tigers Broke Free". make sure you get to it sometime.
You are wise beyond your years. Great reaction.
That movie was realise in 1982...lm from El Salvador, l was born in small town out to the big city San Salvador. 1983 it was my first high school year and l saw this movie and let me tell you something....l didn't understand the meaning of the movie,l just enjoy it because the music and l saw the movie again when l was 30 year old until then I really understand the film.
As a single parent I appreciate your outlook of knowing that most parents do our best to protect and prepare our kids. I was born in the 70s (genx) my kids were born in 2014 (Gen alpha) the amount of anxiety in trying to prepare and protect my twins from a childhood I do not grasp can be intimidating. I make a choice over something regarding their freedoms vs restrictions then I proceed to sit up half the night analyzing every aspect of whether it is the correct choice. I want to protect them from my traumas while instilling my street smarts I gained from those traumas. Lol does everything have to be a double edge sword? Great reaction.
Hat's off to your parents.
Very very good son....bravo!
Ur a very smart young guy. I have been listening to this album since i was about 13 and never really understood it till i was in my late 20's. I never really tried to understand it properly and one night whilst camping out in the woods it was playing whilst we all fell asleep and for some reason it just clicked in my head what he was singing about.
Came across you today listening to time and now this song. I was 16 when thus album came out and I loved it. Thank you for bringing these song back for me. Love from New Zealand
Same here Dawn... I was 17 and in the UK. Now NZ. I play this often ;-)
This album came out when I was in the 9th grade. Always loved it but never thought too deeply about it until more recently. I'm 60 now and my son is 30. I listen to this and wonder what mistakes I may have made and whether my son thinks of me in this way. It makes me incredibly sad not because we have a bad relationship, quite the contrary; we are very close but it makes me reflect back to my mother as well, who was old school Japanese and very strict with nothing less than the highest expectations from me. I think lots of kids blame their parents for their problems but I try to remember that most people do the best that they can at parenting. I also feel somewhat sad for parents today that have to raise their children in the internet age. With depression and anxiety at an all time high, it can't be easy for anyone. I do believe I was blessed to have grown up in the 70s and 80s, just sucks that I'm old now :)
I Love watching young people like you listening to the music I’ve listened to for the last forty plus years, and your great reactions to it. Would love to see you react to Comfortably Numb Live the Pulse concert. You’ll love it!
Not many bands today can make you actually think about what they are saying. your moment of silence and deep thoughtfulness reveals this, enjoy your journey
Mother do you think they'll try to break my balls 😆🤣🤣 I bout died with my bong in one hand and a can of Old English 800 in the other hand when I first heard this back in 1981 on my MCS series 45 watts per channel with strobe light pitch control turntable, I traded my sister one of my Beatles albums for her Pink Floyd the Wall album and me and my friends went to see The Wall at the Midnight Movie at the Mall some of the best times of my life then, Tanx for doin' this one 👍⚡
you're doing a great job.
You are very astute. And I agree, your parents did a great job. I'm a mum so I know.
Nice job following the storyline while only listening to a piece of the entire work. Well done!
Wish you were here from The Pulse concert is incredible.I saw them in 1988 and it was mesmorizing to say the least❤
FEW YEARS AGO, ROGER RERECORDED THIS SONG & WHILE UNDER COVID LOCKDOWN....DID IT WITH HIS NEW BAND. SEARCH FOR ROGER WATERS ( in isolation ) singing this live.. the two female backup singers with him sing the women's parts in the song, which should make it easier to understand.
The album is a psychological journey of the son of a deceased father (WW2) who is grown to a young man turned rock star. It is loosely based on Roger Waters life experience.
You are far above your years young man, and I mean that with all respect 😎
The film will show you more.
The name Pink Floyd comes from the first names of two black American bluesman named Pink Anderson and Floyd Council
You're definitely on the right track with this song. Pretty much spot on in fact. The character will realize later in life that mother's overprotectiveness hurt him more than it helped. Definitely need to hear all these songs in context of the full album to really appreciate. And I emphasize the *album* . The album should be heard first to hear all the amazing songs and music the way they were meant to be heard.
The album is the authentic piece of music, not the movie which was adapted from the album some years later.
One last tip... When you interrupt, go ahead and back it up a few clicks when you return to the song so as not to ruin the flow and understanding. You're not going to understand this the first time around, that's okay. No one does. It's part of the mystique of the album .
Check out "Hey You" from this album next.
Good Job!! 👍
Another Brick in the Wall was the 1st Floyd song I ever really took notice of and i was 20 years old by then in 1980. I suppose it was the 'commercial ' style rather than any previous stuff I may have heard because, to me, it was mostly long drawn out repetitive type of melodies and a bit dreary to my teenage ears. I was more into the rock scene like Sabbath and especially the flamboyant Queen.
But I started going into some of their back catalogue and a later live album called Delicate Sound of Thunder at which point I think they were splitting from the main songwriter and influencer, Bassist, Roger Waters.
When I saw them at Earl's Court, London in 1994 I was totally blown away by the power of the music, the arrangements, the musicianship and the atmosphere it created.
I've still not listened to a lot of their deep cut album tracks but i plan to catch up on that more before my days are up.
You, young man, are a credit to yourself and your family.
In 2000 there was a concert by Roger Waters the guy that wrote almost all the pink floyd music....if you can find this concert in you tube it was in Portland and you can see the band.
There's a distinct characteristic of many /most /all PF songs, and that is the amount of aural SPACE they leave in songs. A modern producer would be desperately clamouring for some 'noises' to fill in those gaps. Floyd don't, but just let the songs 'breathe' and fully inhabit the space they create for it.
You are very articulate and you got the meaning of this song, his mother is extremely over protective as a lot of mothers are.Good reaction, I'll stay with you,hope you jump down this wonder full rabit hole.
Impressed that you understood the song so well on first listening ) but then we live in world where from a young age a lot is pyscho-analyzed ) .You are more mature than I was at 20 for sure, but i am undecided if thats a good thing or a bad thing because life is a long experience and there is much to come.
Remember, life is a journey and enjoy your youth, feel passion for things, do not suppress your emotions and feelings but express them in a way thats positive for you and others, have spirit and experience the gift of life and never be a follower, always think for yourself.
🤗 Wait!!!!! 😚 I'm not ready! 😏 I need snacks! 😁 Take your time dude, we all retired! 🤗 Excited for your PF Adventure! 😁🥰🐰
This kind of music is art. A concept album is more than just a song. Someday I will rediscover some lost treasures...
OH YEAH!!!! Fire bro!...Get it young man. The wall was high.
Yo 20 years old and have more clarity on lyrics as those twice your age. Spot on analysis, my advice listen to studio versions of Floyd and others to get the real impact of what they are all about. Can't wait for more.
I remember wearing headphones with this tune cranked up in 1979. Mother did it need to be so high?
Love your reactions and subbed for more Pink Floyd.
"What was she protecting him from" you ask? When you get a chance to listen to the album in full without interruption, you'll understand that the main character (named Pink on the album) lost his father to WWII, and his Mother tried maybe a bit too hard to be both parents, and therefore became overprotective. This affected Pink for the rest of his life, and became "another brick in the Wall". The Wall, of course, is a metaphor for the emotional Wall that Pink builds around himself. The album goes on to brilliantly express the bricks that have caused Pink to build the Wall, and the consequences that ensue.
Great job, my friend, I'm enjoying your Pink Floyd journey.
The movie “The Wall” explains the story. Your reaction to “Time” was good and you mentioned the soul and
R&B feeling that the female put. So try “The Great Gig in the Sky”. She performed that on the album as lead singer.
You got it bang on. Good reaction. Try Echoes its a long song but well worth it.
Both parts of course :)
@@Polecat54941 for sure!
I recommend you to listen the full double album in one take and several times. When you think you have reacted to enough song of it for the channel, take 90 minutes relaxed and focus and listen The Wall. Not for the channel, as a private experience.
And if you like it, do it again several times, and then, if you have fall in love of this master piece, look for the movie.
You will also like Hey You on the same album.
Again, another great reaction. Still love to see you react to the thought provoking music and lyrics of Tool😎
Very perceptive reaction - new sub for the ride, hopefully you'll check out a suggestion of two. I was raised on all this great rock. This is one of my favorite Pink Floyd songs - another would be "Good Bye Blue Sky" - I'm going to check to see whom you've heard so far before suggesting bands etc.
Man, seriously, like others have said, yoh are spot on. And you understand the nuances and humanity in it, both how a child can get messed up by their parent's not being able to manage their, "stuff," so pushing it in the child by being overprotective and reducing their preparedness for life. So they get bitter, pissed.
Yet I can speak as a parent, man, it all changes once you have that child in your life. The problem is, however, that the perceived pain of losing them is so horrifying that you begin protecting yourself, not the child. I am sure I did this for the first 8-10 years of my first born's life. But then I noticed the effects of it, how he couldn't handle even a tiny mote of stress without emotionally breaking down. I knew it was us (my wife and I). So we started learning ro let go. As horrifying as it is, I had to accept the risk inherent in all things, including loss, and move to a place where I know I will survive, find connection, meaningfulness and fulfillment, come what may.
And in this way, just be him being present, I grew to find these things. In this way, by letting go of the need to control the outcome, I connected with myself. Through that, I connected with him.
Watch the video to On The Turning Away😁
You get it. A smothering, overbearing mother who created an insecure and dependent son. The psychology of it is brilliant. ❤
There is a larger concept on this album but I’ve always thought this was the most important song as far as the story. And you honestly nailed it with you observations.
Never understand a mother for her child ❤
Great reaction and very sensible reflections. Yes, protective and caring parents are usually a key for a sound childhood. But an overprotective parent might actually do more harm than good as he/she might restrict the mind and soul of the kid in a bad way. You have to make the kids self confident and make them eventually able to stand on their own feet but not transfer all of your own fears and always treat them as your little helpless babies…
If you want a window into the death of Roger Waters father during WW2 Check out :-
"When the Tigers Broke Free"
Tigers can represent the fighting spirit, but in WW2 the German Main Battle Tank Panzerkampfwagen VI was called the Tiger.
At over 50tons this was one of the most advanced and terrifying machines on the battlefield.
Asking Infantry or even other Tanks to stop a bunch of Tigers would be virtually suicide 😢
And Roger has very strong feelings about those who sent his father to die.
It's not really written from a child's perspective; it's more an adult's reflections on what sits underneath their neuroses and insecurities. It's yet another lyrical masterpiece from Roger Waters.
The contrast in vocal tones from 'mother' to 'child' is so effective, and the tone and pitching of that guitar solo are immense. There's so much more to it - it really should be a school subject. I think it's best if your journey into the album allows you to draw your own conclusions - be aware you will change your mind. Enjoy the film!
remember that these musicians all grew up in post war Britton and that "Mother" lived through the bombing of London. Compare to 2002 NY if you need a reference point.
'
Although Pink Floyd songs generally have a universal human meaning, you also need to catch up on some PF background & 'mythology'.
The band started out as a collaborative project, up until about 'Meddle'. But, at about this time Roger stepped up to be the self appointed leader, writer & composer. He virtually single handedly [ at least according to him ] wrote DSotM, WYWH, The Wall, Animals & the Final Cut. Dave & Richard were making their own solo work, Nick was buying up the world's supply of Ferraris. It ultimately lead to the break up of the second phase of the band.
But, in writing all of the lyrics, Roger was carrying out his own psychotherapy in plain sight. His Father had been killed in WWII, & he was not going to let the world forget it.
So, you always have to listen to lyrics from this era through that lens. It's what it means to Roger first, & humanity second.
This song is therapy for the fatherless.
The song dirty woman kinda leads back to this song, in a way. Great reaction again. Keep em coming.
She was protecting him from her fears and the world. In the movie it causes drug problems and women problems
Help him out.
I hit like. Only takes a minute
Am quite liking your Pink Floyd reactions. Was also wondering if you could please react to "Eminence Front" by The Who.
First 🔥
Good reaction to lyrics. I saw you start to enjoy the guitar solo but didn't mention it. At least you have good judgment to not stop in the middle of guitar solo to comment. Also, yes on headphones. Right? Now try Shine on You Crazy Diamond or something from Animals.
You have to watch the movie to get the context of this song! Great insight though.
His father died in the war and his mother became extremely over protective, hence this song
It’s sometimes difficult to grasp the essence of some PF songs, without the context of the Album.
You’ll get there young fella, you’re in the hole now lol.
Então já tenho uma informação pra você, NUNCA, NUNCA INTERROMPA UM SOLO DE GUITARRA 🎸 AINDA MAIS DE DAVID GILMOUR, ISSO É IMPERDOÁVEL 👍
How narcissistic Mommas make Momma’s boys. It’s sick. The term for this is called Mother-Son Enmeshment. Great song, but when I hear it, it boils my blood. My husband’s Mother is one of these. He’s 65 and has dealt with C-PTSD his entire life. This stuff begins when the child is super little. I need gold medal for sticking with him for 41 years. And, yeah, she’s still alive. 92 years old and still doing her dirty work.
You should have more subs👍add my name to the list ❤
You can’t be 20. How you think like a man and a father. As you say, until you have children of your own you can’t understand how much love and protection you want to provide. But you do need to let them make their own mistakes so they can mature and grow to be independent. The fact that you recognize the sacrifices your parents have made for you clearly indicate what great parents they are and what a good son you are. Personally, both my daughters are in college. I made it my mission to work hard and send them to private school their whole lives. Also sleep away camp every summer for 10 years. They got accepted to Tufts University and Hamilton College each which costs approx $80k a year. They both said dad we can go to state school in Florida since you did the pre paid college plan when we were babies for $10k each and our college is now covered. I said no, you didn’t squander the million dollars of private school your whole lives and worked hard to get top grades cuz you understood the sacrifice your mom and I made even as divorced parents who still get along so you’re going to the University of your choice. Yes many people without kids could be rich or wealthier but that would be emptier. Without family, what do you really have in life? It makes me happy to see someone so young see things through more mature eyes. Keep up the great Floyd reactions.
That means alot to me thank you!!! And thank you for the advice!! I always appreciate knowledge
😔 Sometimes the World comes to you. Life during Wartime is rough (hence Bombs dropping) especially with Dad off to War. 🤫 But I don't want to spoil the rest of the "story". 😄 Many of the questions you asked will actually be answered as the Album progresses. 🫣 We find out the ramifications of building the wall "so High".... is alls I'm saying. 😎 Looking forward to 🌘 DSoTM too. 🥰🐰
Yeah at some point he discover that his dad die in the war(first war world)
Pink Floyd, named after the bands 2 favorite blues artists, PINK Anderson and FLOYD Council, are British and have been the defacto "trippy spacey psychadelic" gold standard in music since the 1960s. However, along the way, they matured into the goliath of the music industry. Nobody can touch them on more levels than can be listed here. A good example is the album DARK SIDE OF THE MOON, which holds the world record for the most weeks at #1.....just over 4 YEARS. Welcome to Pink Floyd.
It was also in the Billboard album top 100 for over 18 years.
You would understand the music from this album much better if you watched the movie. Take it from a mother!
Wise beyond your ears picking up the meaning on 1st listen. Most don’t.
your journey has just started !! ... i think the next song for you is MEATLOAF !! ... no, not the food, but the SINGER !! ... "Meatloaf - Two Out Of Three Aint Bad"
the mom is a nightmare
How come you’re so wise, not to say smart!
You're still a little bit too positive on this particular mother, although undoubtedly she meant well and did the best she could under the circumstances. I highly recommend listening to this album, uninterupted front to back, multiple times with the lyrics at hand to get your grasp on the story it tells. Only then watch the movie.
This is just my opinion, maybe his mother was the wall and she apologized for being so high of a wall.
