We continue our journey through Animals with a stop at... Pigs! Oink oink.
Richard and Dave on the bass were just amazing standouts on this track. Everyone was so right... this is quite bleak. It really does bring to mind so many of our problems and the human condition itself.

I’ve said it before, this is their most fully realised album. Not the most famous, but my favourite. Biting vicious lyrics
as the years go by , it gets better and better ,doesn't it ? :)
It gets more relevant with each passing year
note that Whitehouse refers to Mary Whitehouse, a UK campaigner for cleaning up TV in the seventies, she did not like bad language, violence, any reference to sex whatsoever and, well, you get the idea (3rd verse, Hey you, Whitehouse...)
But as Led Zeppelin said, "because you know sometimes words have two meanings".
She was an awful woman. She tried to get Tom & Jerry taken off the TV because she considered it too violent. But, as the self-appointed president of the National Viewers' and Listeners' Association, the BBC and ITV listened to her, afraid of her sharp tongue and the right-wing religious bigots who orbited her like flies around dead meat. Luckily, Tom and Jerry stayed!
@@SpaceOdditiesLive no way, imagine hating on Tom and Jerry lol
Mentioned by Monty Python: “Mary Whitehouse has taken umbrage.”
I only learned that in the last year, from reaction videos! As an American, I had no reason to think Roger wasn't just taking shots at our government, and in the context of the song, it made total sense.
You've got a good channel, man...
No constant pauses, just a few points spoken while the music plays, with opinions at the end.
Well done.
Thank you, my friend. I appreciate that 🙏
Nice eh, should of seen him at the beginning, chatty like a prom queen 😂. But he gets the 70s 🙏🎶
I totally agree , great channel , glad I found it quite by accident no less 😄
I agree.
Roger and Richard have been killing this” just as Dave launches into one his patented outro solos teeming with bitterness and anger. Incredible album.
Rick was the soul of PF, his atmospheric keyboards are essential to the emotional tone of their sound. RIP. And yes, Dave killed on bass as well as lead.
That is absolutely David Gilmour on lead guitar in the outro. He also does bass and the voice box (pig sounds), as well. Roger on rhythm and lead vocals, not lead guitar.
I remember the ‘77 tour in Cleveland stadium. Don’t ever recalling an airplane flying over a stadium during a concert ( sure it’s not legal today except for military flyovers). Not a small plane but the band’s commercial airliner buzzing the top of the stadium right on time of the first gilmour note. Was just the beginning of the greatest concert experience that I have ever seen and heard. Great channel keep it up
you sure you weren't just high as shit?
I saw the 77 tour in the old Boston Garden, unreal, Gilmour was on 🔥
I was at that Cleveland show. They did get fined for it, but it wasn’t a huge amount.
I WAS AT OLYMPIC STADIUM IN MONTREAL, THE BIG O. THEY HAD A HOUSE SIZE PIG ON ROPE N POLLEY, DIAGONAL ACROSS THE STADIUM. A ROPE HANGING OFF IT… PEOPLE WOULD HOLD THE ROPE, THEY WOULD PULL THE LINE TILL THEY LET GO… THE PIG THEN FLEW N BOUNCE ALL OVER. ALSO A 30’ BALLOON MAN THEY FLEW OUT THE HOLE OF THE STADIUM… THE BEST CONCERT EVER FOR ME 👊🖖
Soldier Field Chicago 1977
"World Series of Rock"
Also ELP there in 77
"You radiate cold shafts of broken glass". A very dark album, but essential.
And this is where David pulls out the voicebox and gets angry with his guitar.... and it's f''king awesome. I never ever get tired of listening to this album,,, and is my one album to pick if I could only have one PF album.
Coffee, Blunt and Pink Floyd. It's gonna be a great Day 😉🤫🫵👍
Yes it is my friend!! 😀
Same,on my day off.
Same here except l drink tea and l'm retired so it's everyday now. Life is good and l love this channel 🥰✌️🎶
Hey Lee! Only have one word for Animals...Masterpiece!!!🐷🐖🐑🐶🐕
Firstly, many congrats on the sponsrship Lee! Well done! You will only go from strength to strength with the great reactions you bring us. Just a little historical context for "Animals" : in 1977, punk rock ruled the airwaves. Prog was scorned, laughed at, definitely out of fashion. Johnny Rotten of the Sex Pistols was wearing a "I Hate Pink Floyd" T-shirt (although, as it turned out, just to seem rebellious: he later admitted to being a big fan). The charts were full of energetic, poppy, 3-minute songs by punk bands, and it was glorious: a breath of fresh air had swept through the music industry and swept prog away, as kids found they didn't need a lot of musical virtuosity to write and play fun and memorable songs. It was a younger generation of angry, bitter working-class kids, fed up with the perceived pretentious noodlings of middle-class, virtuoso prog musicians and their beard-stroking fans. They were angry at being ignored, shoved on the rubbish pile by society, having no musical voice of their own.
What they were most angry about was that they seemingly had no future. Britain was broke. There was record unemployment. The electricity workers and the miners, who dug the coal for the power stations, had staged lengthy strikes for more pay, and many followed: lorry drivers (truckers), health service workers, even gravediggers. The country was on its knees, and had to go to the International Monetary Fund (IMF) for a bailout. I remember, just two or three years earlier, having to do my school homework by candlelight because there was no power. In 1974 Britain had been on a three-day working week to save power (and of course as kids we loved only going to school three days a week!). It all culminated in the "Winter of Discontent" in 1978/9 which swept away the Labour government, who had presided over the worst peacetime conditions the UK had seen since the Industrial Revolution, and brought Margaret Thatcher's Conservatives to power. I started University in the north-east of England in the autumn of 1978: lectures were cancelled because there was no light or heating. There was no hot water to wash any clothes, and my room in the hall of residence where I lived had ice on the inside of the windows every morning.
So things were bleak, dark and getting worse in 1977. In the middle of all this, Pink Floyd released "Animals", capturing the national mood of hopelessness perfectly. Dark, oppressive and chilling, it told us of the dogs and pigs who had brought us to despair, and the unthinking sheep who, bamboozled into servitude, had failed to revolt against them (although, in "Sheep", it doesn't quite end that way...but no spoilers). It was Pink Floyd's zeitgeist album, with the harshness and brutality of punk rock married to Floyd's intelligence, eloquence and incomparable mastery of sound. Punk Floyd, indeed. It was a kick in the crotch for those who had declared prog irrelevant and passé: Roger Waters said more about the ills of society in three songs than a hundred punk artists had ever said, and far more eloquently. For those of us raised on prog, it demonstrated that the genre was still alive and kicking, still had a lot to say and could still innovate, taking us to other worlds, other moods and feelings as much as it had ever done.
"Animals" may not be many people's favourite Pink Floyd album, but it is mine. Because I remember those desperate days of 1977, when, a year before leaving school, the future seemed bleak, dark and uncertain, promising nothing instead of the green uplands and sunlit pastures which should have been in my future. And every time I listen to the album I am taken back to the urban decay, malaise, unhappiness and brutality of 70s Britain. Far from depressing me, it makes me happy that things are so much better now, especially for young people. We should all be grateful that most kids have not had to endure the hardships we went through back then.
Within just a few years of her election in May 1979, Margaret Thatcher had transformed the British economy and it was boom time again, with Britain again being a rich country, brimming with energy and opportunity. Her government did a lot of terrible things: they closed the coal industry, sold off other nationalised industries cheaply to their rich friends, restricted the unions so that it was far harder for workers to strike and introduced the "Me!" culture of selfishness so pervasive today. But on the other hand, a lot of darkness was swept away: people dared to have hopes and dreams again, and some light returned to the world. Britain in the 1980s changed from being an industrial economy to a service economy, primarily in financial markets, and we manufactured nothing any more. Countless lives in the old industrial cities were ruined as jobs in factories and steel mills were swept away: many of those cities fell into permanent decay. But hey, business was booming in banking, the money was flowing like never before into London, as the world financial centre, and that was all that mattered to the Conservatives and their billionaire buddies.
Those angry young men of punk had all but disappeared too, as their meagre talents, in a lot of cases, were not enough to ensure their longevity. Punk erupted in 1976, but by 1978 its light had fizzled out. Nevertheless, some fantastic bands and artists came out of that era who did last the distance: Dire Straits, Ian Dury, Elvis Costello and many more. Have you reacted to Dire Straits yet? If not, you should try "Private Investigations", "Telegraph Road" and the timeless "Sultans of Swing". You'll adore them, I have no doubt.
Well those are just some thoughts for you Lee. Thank you, thank you for your great reactions and the very best of luck to you. You are going to be amazed at "Sheep": some of Richard Wright's best playing ever. I will say no more! :) All the best. Andy.
Excellent comment!
Wow thank you so much!! I truly appreciate it. I can't believe I got one honestly lol I'm glad we could work together for this. Hopefully, folks like the free trial it really helps :)
Thank you so much for the context and info and typing all this out. I really appreciate you. This album has been honestly stellar so far. I can't wait for sheep 😀
As an American, thank you for the history lesson. Really. I visited London in 1978 and saw punk remnants, leftovers, and knew a little, but not how it all tied together. It makes more sense to me now, and I appreciate it.
@lathedauphinot6820 My absolute pleasure! 😀
Great reaction! Nice to see you recognize the great Richard Wright as well .. may he RIP
the pig on the cover slipped its moorings and caused some disruption to flights at Heathrow airport !
I actually watched a video about it right after the video premiered lol it popped up on my feed. The RAF was called and it landed in a farm field somewhere hahaha
I think floyd and the moody blues have their unsung heros behind the keys! The textures and atmospheres are what the bands are known for!
Mike Pinder was certainly in the top five of Mellotron players - probably number one.
Ooh, yes. Some 70s Britain references, amazing guitars, organ, it’s got it all. Acerbic and angry. Floyd at their best ❤ Gilmour on fretless bass on this one 🎉
Every time I catch the train to London, I pass by this building and it’s still stark like that 😊
*Edit: you obviously mention this. He’s SO good isn’t he? He played on quite a few Floyd tracks, including fretless on Hey You, which is among their most hauntingly heartachingly brilliant songs ❤❤❤❤
I feel honored to have seen them several times live in the seventies. Filling the venue with their quadrasonic magic.
I love that you are listening to this album from the beginning. Your reactions are really well done. It would be pretty cool if you listened to the entire Dark Side of the Moon album on the Eclipse day, April 8.
That’s a good idea!
In the late '80s I was dating a girl who was a little chubby. I had this song on in the car while driving and when the part came on, "Pig stain on your fat chin", I was singing along as I reached over and I pinched her double chin. Oh boy was that ever a mistake! 😂😂😂
During the tour for the Animals album, they were playing Olympic stadium in Montreal. The giant pink pig got loose, and floated across the Atlantic ocean. It landed in a farmer's field in France.
Waters on who the three Pigs are:
"… in the original thing, who were they? I don’t know. “Big man, pig man,” that’s any businessman who’s more interested in making money than they are in having relationships with other human beings, which might be more rewarding than accumulating wealth. So that’s for Steve Schwarzman and all the rest of them. They’re all the same, by and large.
The last verse is about somebody who tried to censor English television to keep sex off of it who was called Mary Whitehouse, which was convenient ’cause it means I can say, “Hey, Whitehouse,” and a lot of people think I’m singing about the White House in Washington, D.C. And I am now, because nobody cares about Mary Whitehouse anymore. She did try to clean up British television by making it sort of evangelical-Christian-friendly in ways that are unhealthy, in my view.
So hang on, what’s the second verse about? … Oh, Margaret Thatcher. How could I have forgotten? What a wonderful thing the human mind is that you can forget Margaret Thatcher. I love that."
(Rolling Stone, 30/9/19 online interview)
My favourite Pink Floyd album, And has been since it was released.
You're so right about cell phones, me being an older person, cell phones have gotten rid of debate and conversation between people. That's why they forgotten how to debate without throwing tantrums!!! Your channel is going to grow very fast because people who watch reactors realize you know actually what's going on and what you're listening to and your commentary is not shallow it's actually fairly smart and right on point!!!
There is so much tension in this album, really one of my favorite albums ever. Definitely in the 'wish this album were longer' bin for me. Gilmour is on fire, Roger is playing completely unreal, sparse lines, the drumming, keys, this album is insane ... and then the lyrics hit you. Pink Floyd is one of the few bands I would ever say are almost mean in their ability to hit you in the feels. They want you to remember. Thanks for the reaction.
You should have said: 'David and Richard have been killing this'. And this is the case with "Sheep".
An unbelievably awesome album, the biting wit of Roger Waters is perfectly matched by the band in full fligjt, in peak mode, they just take you on an audio journey like no other. Happy listening coming up for Sheep as well. I saw this tour in the old Boston Garden in 77, you can hear an unofficial recording of it on You Tube, well worth tracking down, Gilmour is on 🔥all show! Enjoy. 🎵🎸🎤🎹🎶
Nick is the smoothest and then sometimes the crusher. Mostly 4/4 stuff but so succinct that I find myself seeing him leading the rhythm more than filling.
I'm so glad you listened to the original album mix this time. There are so many atmospheric sounds from David and Richard that needed to be heard. As I mentioned, they were thinned out a bit in the 2018 Remix of Animals. I'm looking forward to your reaction to 'Sheep'. You are obviously a fan of Richard Wright's work, as am I. The quality of Nick Mason's work cannot be overstated either.
Honestly Animals is when Pink Floyd was at the top of their game. I saw this show in Cleveland 77. Unbelievable show.
The guitar and bass interplay on the outro of this song is sublime.
People don't realize Gilmour played both guitar and bass on this song
One of the darkest Floyd albums and one of my favourites this song is so right for the time and now.
Got this album in 78 still have it
33and one half RPM's
So impressive how they've absolutely nailed the music that most compliments the theme. This and Wish You Were Here is peak Floyd as far as the band is concerned. Crazy talent throughout the band.
I remember listening to this when it first came out with about 5 or 6 of my best friends on a killer Kenwood system. We played it over and over in sheer amazement.( I was going to mention the Purple Micro Dot but decided not too....} Rock on dude !!!
Purple Microdot was big back then. I remember the other students in my high school talking about it in class. 😆
I think this is the first PF song that Gilmour used a 'Talk Box', a device that combines the human voice and the guitar notes into strange, almost ominous sounds. Peter Frampton also used a Talk Box on his live 1976, "Frampton Comes Alive" album.
I just today noticed the "Grand Funk Live Album" poster behind you, haha, reminds me of the time I saw them, ("Grand Funk Railroad" 70's Rock band), at their iconic Shea Stadium Concert in 1971, I was only 15 years old so my really cool brother-in-law, who knew I was a GFR, bought tickets and took me to the show.
Good memories!
You forgot to mention Joe Walsh using it on Rocky Mountain Way.
I seen them in Chicago when this album was released. WOW what a great concert that was, I will never forget how amazing it was. The pigs were flying high that day😂
Awww remember listening to this in my friends basements late 70's I was 17 and smoking a bone
!...that's what the album cover was for, had to do at least a three blader long album tract`s🙃
Holy shit! Was I there? It was the exact situation I was in ,while I listened to this album in my friends basement
Omg I haven't heard anybody say smoking a bone in decades. Thank you it takes me right back
@@connieleighton4375 this music takes right to those high school days when this album came out and blew my mind!!
I remember the day I bought this album and the way I made me feel when I put it on the turntable and listened to it for the first time..
Always happy to see you react to Floyd, Lee😎
You show a great understanding of the various themes and styles and I just love your easy enthusiastic reactions
Another winner my friend 👍
This was always my favorite Pink Floyd album!
That guitar solo at the end I find especially spine-tingling and explosive. Gilmour really lets loose. I love that he begins by just hitting than one note for who knows how many bars lol. The whole album is a very angry record. The lyrics are especially scathing of capitalism and greed, but ultimately very personal as well. This has long been referred to as their "punk" record, maybe not musically but lyrically. It doesn't pull any punches in its criticism. The messages here are more relevant than ever. Thanks for your reaction! You know your stuff and are clearly very passionate about music.
That intro... One of my favs from pink Floyd
Shocked to see Roger Waters did not play bass on Pigs or Sheep. David Gilmour was playing guitar AND bass.
Roger Waters likes the sound of Fretless Bass but can’t play one so David does it for him. This started with A Pillow Of Winds from Meddle (1971)
A Pillow Of Winds
Dogs
Pigs (three different ones)
Hey You!
@@shyshiftcool
Yet another way for David Gilmour to make music magic. The man is a human musical instrument!
Well then it's no wonder I love the bass line as the song ends.
Dave and Roger play bass on Pigs. Dave does the funky fretless bits and Roger does the bits that sound exactly like Roger.
Just as an FYI, the amazing bass here was played by David Gilmour (and on Sheep as well). He is a string instrument GOD.
Say what you want about his politics, but Roger Waters was one of the top rock lyricists of the 70's, full stop.
Great Reaction. From one drummer to another, an absolutely stellar drum performance is by Danny Seraphine of Chicago on one of their earliest hits called "Make Me Smile". The late great Buddy Rich was asked back in the 70's if there were any young, up and coming drummers that impressed him and his response was "Yeah, I like that kid from Chicago. Danny what's his name".
Seraphine’s great. Terry Kath has a wonderful vocal on that song too.
This was the year of the Hiel Talk box. David uses it here and the same year Joe Walsh (Rocky Mt. Way) and Peter Frampton (Do you feel, like I do) got the new device (created in 1971 in a workshop) This year, 1975, was when it was introduced to the general public. The same tech went on to create "Pitch Correct" in 1979 (allowed singers who can't carry a tune in a bucket, like all the new models and dancers who wanted to sing around this time, to sing however in to a microphone, and the tones coming out of the speaker would be shifted to match the key of the band. ) Later, autotune (1996) replaced that, allowing even more talentless "artists" to cheat and feign real abilities. I liked it best back in 75 when it was this.
I was 15 when I bought the Animals cassette tape.
I wore it out in my old man's camper. Memories!
Great reaction!
I saw Pink Floyd the Animals tour in 1977, on acid, it started raining, but the stage was covered and they played all of animals and a second set with all their hit's, It cost $12 for festival seating, 60,000 people in Anaheim stadium, no stabbing or shootings? Made some friends, no haters unlike now!
Diggin the Talk Box. So popular in the 70's.
As Eric Cartman once said... "Ha ha, charade you are Scott!"
Thanks for the reaction. For all you old and new rock fans Robert Plant,Bob Dylan and Willie Nelson are on tour this summer. Tickets go on sale Friday March 1st 24
A proper,passionate music fan who doesn’t spend the entire reaction scratching his chin wondering where he heard a riff before,was it an ad,was it in a movie? When I was skating?
Very annoying,but I enjoy the ones like you who get the nuances and discuss the actual music.
Keep up the good work fella and greetings from London.
Thanks bro I really appreciate it. I try not to be a mouth breather like most folks on here. Sometimes I fail, but I'm only human:)
The pig in the picture caused all sorts of havoc. They attempted 40 ft inflatable over the plant but it got away and forced shutdown of airports and farmers complaining it caused them trouble. Later the pig was simply superimposed.
As someone said, the smart phone is the modern digital hypodermic needle. It's scary how completely addicted so many people are.
congratulations on the sponsorship
Thank you!! I couldn't believe it, honestly. But here we are. I'm very grateful.
Mason kicked ass .Another drummer for the ages Mitch Mitchell!!!!He was a blessing for Hendrix. 😊
You articulate your thoughts so well and you have an incredible insight to the music you review. I really relate to your analyses of the music and you often don’t miss. Keep it up! Impressive reviews.
The outro of lead guitar 🎸 is absolutely perfect 🔥 fire by Gilmour
The message of this song is fairly evident, even to the most dense of humans.
In the format it was originally released, this is track 1 side 2
Fabulous , Fabulous Floyd !!!!
Ha Ha Charade you are !! ..... just the best Pink Floyd album bar none IMO. 😍
They had to superimpose the pig on the album cover. When they did the shoot the strings broke on the real pig broke and it flew off. Airline pilots reported a flying pig and they were apparently put on the breathalyser when they landed
That's a real flying pig(blow up ) and apparently it broke free at one point and just flew along ,up ,up and away ....gotta love it :) OINK !
Needs more barn! It's Animals after all. LOL Never noticed until this listen how Lennon-esque are the lyrics and the singing.
Love watching the channel grow Lee! You are crushing and building steam.... Keep em coming...❤❤❤
The building pictured on the cover of the "Animals" album is the Battersea Power Station in London, England, Floyd's home town. Saw Pink Floyd on their Division Bell tour, and found it to be a very sterile, cold environment. The attitude from the stage was, just sit there and be entertained by us. Do not attempt to interact with the band in any way, and leave when it is over. The band did not address the audience in any way, and the only time there was a reaction from the crowd, was when the laser show went on, or some other "special effect", no true musical highlights. I could have been home listening to a CD, no improvisation or deviation from the album versions. It was all played perfectly, of course, but a little fun may have been in order.
Yep, the building is the power station allright - I've seen it myself from a distance on a bus ride in London back in the day. Their home town was Cambridge though, that's where they all came from, grew up and where they launched the band.
Louise, I stand corrected. I just ass-u-me-d they were a London band. It is always bad to assume, thanks for the correction.
Gilmour of corse killer guitar solo at the end.....but the Bass was also Gilmour on this at the end
When you get the chance, try Roger Waters Pigs three different ones in Mexico city live 2016. Sounds really great, the visuals are amazing and the audience was mesmerized by it all.
I don't remember if it was brought up in the dogs video but this album is based off of the book animal farm, which when I was in high school in the late '90s was required reading but now that I have kids myself I've learned that it is now on the banned books list.
Edit: Oh you mention it at the end.
It's crazy all the books that are getting banned now.
Imagine living in a world now where the book Fahrenheit 451 is banned. The irony.
This album was influenced by the book 'Animal Farm' by George Orwell.
.
This album...in case it wasn't obvious...
Dogs, the back stabbing business men/women
Pigs, the sleazy politicians
Sheep...Us regular folks
.
The album cover pic... Battersea Power Station.
Dude, I'm so happy you got a sponsor! Big things coming your way!
Didn't realize that Gilmour was using that talk box for so much of this song. I've been listening to this since the 70s
DECADES & DECADES ago - they used to have a thing called "The Phone Book" ... your name - address - phone number, was printed for the whole world to see !! .... nothings changed
The pig got loose when they were taking that cover shot. It flew across the country, in air traffic, which significantly added to PFs notoriety.
David uses the voice box on this song. Also try KEEP TALKING live Pulse for that voice box effect.
Also, Roger Waters does this song solo, live in front of 300k. It’s crappin awesome
One of my favourite Floyd sings. Funky, bluesy and gritty. Such an underrated album. Dare I say it, I prefer Animals to DSOTM. Really like your analysis. Enjoying your videos
Had to get up early for this one, no arguments. An incredible piece of work.
Glad to hear it! Gonna be an interesting video 😀🤣
This album was great on 8track. It just kept playing.
First Pink Floyd for me was Ummagumma ! After all these years still ain't right 😂 But..This is my favorite all time Pink Floyd track..Thanx for reacting to it !
Beautiful reflection my friend, I think that before it was better when fiction did not imitate reality, now it is dangerous because reality starts to imitate fiction.
Music is time travel! Re: "Don't think, do." BS. Think about what you're going to do, think about what you're doing, think about what you've done. It's the balance between thinking and doing that sweetens the dynamics of being alive. Rock on, you're doing great things! 😁
Thank you jeff!! You rock bro. Yeah that just screams "bahhhhhhh! 🐑 " to me! I'd rather think and then Do. Not do and then think why after 🤣
@@L33Reacts
Re: "Music is time travel": When we make music, we think about what we just played (did), what we're playing now (doing), and what we'll play next (will do)... past, present, and future all in the same beat!🤯😁 Keep the sticks moving, see you on the next one!
At one point, he said "Roger's tone is so good". I thought he said Roger Stone is so good. 😅 I was relieved when i realized my mistake.
The pig got away when they were doing photos for the album. It had to be destroyed.
Tone of people say Dark Side of The Moon, but I say Animals. Always.
Probably already been said, but that's Gilmour on a fretless bass, not Waters.
Certainly dark and biting lyrics, but it ends with a triumphal riff when the sheep rise up and kill their oppressors. Love that bit!
SPOILERS!! 💀
The grimy, blotched sound is part of the purpose - those keyboards, guitar and drums are meant to sound a bit ugly, swampish...almost crude. Roger's scornful, nonchalant voice too...
Over the last eight years Roger has been dedicating the song to Donald Trump at concerts (there's a great live video of it from Mexico City in the summer of 2016), and I completely agree about that. Trump does embody so much of what the lyrics are about, this song about gluttony, deceit, abuse, hypocrisy and violence.
Great job very dark lots of anger can't wait for the next. Thanks for the heads up Lee.......😊😊😊
😊😊
the fort knox 1977 version is awesome
❤my favorite song 😊
The best album ever made! (IMHO)
You got a sponsor Lee good for you man.....
No wonder Waters was led to think he WAS the band. He wrote the song, he sang it. Gilmour played the bass for him fcol. Musically, it was Gilmour all the way. But they all butlered to Waters’ songwriting.
That was pretty much the case from saucerful to the wall. Waters is arrogant, quite narcissistic but he is right.
It's a shame the knives came out.
David Gilmour is the one who's playing a fretted bass in this song! The pig sounds you're hearing are being made by Gilmore using a heil talk box. I'm not sure they'll ever be a more complex group than these guys especially considering the sounds they created with 1970s technology!!
Great reaction Lee! This whole album is fire - and yes, it's dark! Waters had a fair deal to say about society here - and this song was no exception! (even going so far as to call someone out by name - conservative & censorship activist Mary Whitehouse!)
Can't wait for Sheep - but I highly suggest having the lyrics for that one! (especially for one part that is hard to make out, but essential to the understanding of the track!)
Cheers!!
Well done on the sponsorship. Your fortunes are on the uptick at last. Amazing!
Hopefully!! Thank you bro. Glad to see you back!
@@L33Reacts It’s good to be here. That was so good to hear again. Now I’m in the mood, I gotta listen to Hey You from The Wall. It’s up there as perhaps their best, and Gilmour on bass ❤️ It’s a poweful wail from behind a wall of isolation. Stunnng ❤️🎶🎶🎶
16:15 true, that. Animals was their fu album. The Wall was more personal to Waters and therefor less of an affront to the world as a whole, I think. Animals was more generic, more public. They got bad press over the whole cynical vibe of it.
But hey. Harbingers are never welcome guests.
Hey man with your take on music and life in general you would have fitted into the 70's quite well I remember being down the pub in the UK at sixteen (underage) discussing very similar things with fellow older students and some of our teachers.
I appreciate that man. My mind has been spared the mental torture that most of my generation has endured, so I'd fit in with yall :)
This whole album needs to be taught WITH Orwell.
Man We could use a new Pink Floyd album about now.......
