saw this 5 times. This was an experience not a concert. After every show when the people were leaving it was so quite as if they couldn't believe what they just saw & experience I have people next to me crying even at Dave's solo concerts
In my 60 years in this planet I’ve seen hundreds of concerts but the Pulse concert was the best I ever saw and David’s guitar solos always move me to tears. ❤
I was at this gig. And yes it was awesome. Still gives me goosebumps watching it all theses years later. I’ve seen hundreds of bands and some of the biggest in the business. Without doubt Pink floyd pulse if by far the best I’ve ever seen.
Her reactions to Floyd are awesome. She really gets it. There simply is no band better. Like its really not even close. They are just a whole new level of emotion. Something more than music.
Well said, Pink Floyd is a gift to humanity! If you react like this on "Sorrow" (not that it is not another masterpiece) I cannot even imagine what will happen to you by reacting to "Shine on you crazy diamond" 😊
I was at this concert and it was the most unforgettable live experience I had ever had, or probably will ever have. One thing you cannot experience from the video is Pink Floyd's complete, immersive surround sound (which they were pioneers of). It was truly incredible. You need to watch the opening song "Shine On You Crazy Diamond" - I'd love to see your reaction to that! And I totally understand your emotional reaction. I've been listening to Pink Floyd for over 50 years and they STILL make me feel that overwhelming emotion, even though I've heard every song literally hundreds of times. There has never, ever been another group of musicians who could hit you so emotionally on that level. All the best.
I too was at the concert in Earls Court, sadly not on the recording night but the next day. The video is good but cannot let you feel how great it was, there was so much there that you miss in the video, the music hit you, the heat from the flares, the millions of lights from the mirror ball (sorry if that's a spoiler, have you done that song yet?), the whole evening was overwhelming. I've also been to a lot of concerts but never one like that where the audience just sat there unable to take it all in. A truly amazing evening. If you haven't tried it yet Comfortably Numb from Pulse or On the Turning Away from their Delicate Sound of Thunder concert.
The only problem with watching the opening song, "Shine On You Crazy Diamond", was that they omitted to play the 3rd guitar solo prior to the vocals, which was such a shame - they could've done the song huge respect of playing it faithfully to the audio version. Never mind, they have recorded what we have recorded - for posterity.
You will never see the likes of this ever again. It is the greatest concert in history, and I'm an old codger who has been going to these things since the 60's. These guys are the benchmark.
If you don't feel some kind of way while listening to Pink Floyd you're dead inside. I love how loving and concerned you were for your wife. It speaks volumes.
One of the reasons why I love your reactions so much is because you listen to music from your hearts and I know that if there is an emotion in a song, you will most probably feel it and respond to it. 🖤
I literally discovered this song at 2am last night. I spent the next 4 hours watching reactions to it, and one of my first thoughts was: "I can't wait for MerchantOfAlba's reaction to this." Amazing reaction.
After 51 years of listening to pink floyd they still bring out those feelings in me. Their is no one like pink floyd and never will be. They will be played at my funeral, who else is there.
I grew up with Pink Floyd because of my parents, and I started listening to them on my own when I was 12 years old. I’m 45 now and I will listen to them till the day I die. It’s not just a band or music, it’s art. Their songs affects you in every aspect… physically, mentally, psychologically and especially emotionally. David Gilmour sings and plays his heart out on that guitar 🎸 It’s like they consume every fiber of your being. I’ve also passed it on to my daughter who started listening to them when she was 15 and she loves them even more now at the age of 23, and they will grow with her forward on. She says that she definitely will pass it on to her children when the time comes. I’m so grateful that I have Pink Floyd in my life, and I wish that everyone could experience them like I do and like you do now. There’s a meaning,, a message and a purpose behind their songs. Pink Floyd is without a doubt the GOAT!! Thank you so much for embracing them and pass them on to everyone you know 🙏🏼 You have a new subscriber here 👏🏼
There’s bands, there’s songs and then there’s Pink Floyd… I have seen them 3 times including this tour … I’m so glad I was born in the Pink Floyd era….
This is what it sounds like when a guitar star brings his instrument to "life". 👍Unique, what other guitarists can do that with such perfection? There are not many bands that can trigger such emotions. Pink Floyd is one big work of art.🤘
Pink Floyd is a trip. I'm 62 and I discovered them at 14. My cousins passed me a joint and put some Floyd on. I had no idea. For a small town kid who knew nothing of nothing, this stuff blew my mind and my ears wide open. I was slackjawed because it went to my very soul which had never happened before.
Thank You. One of my favs Live PF. Saw pulse tour show twice. Can't believe I was there. Your channel has the best version and best audio I've found!!. Thank You! Awesome reaction btw. Your soul was speaking to you. 👍
Beautiful reaction. Now you both understand that you do not just hear or listen to Pink Floyd, you feel every note every word with every fiber of your being. Pink Floyd is on another level.! God bless you both!
Again, I must say…..I am so impressed with you two. Overwhelmed…….is the appropriate feeling. Pink Floyd does overwhelm your senses. I am an old rock n roller who has seen hundreds, if not thousands of bands in my life time, and I guarantee you…..no other band has ever made me “feel” like PF makes me feel. After years over listening to them (especially this concert) I still cry, I am amazed, I sit in silence, I cheer, I clap, and I am in awe of the talent and abilities of this group. Including the light show, the sound engineers and all the support staff that made this concert possible. If you want a break from the emotional weight of Pink Floyd……you need to listen to some Supertramp. They are another English band who are every bit as musically talented as PF, but who have a lighter, more melodic approach to their music. I often switch over to Supertramp after a Pink Floyd session. They are well worth the effort. Thanks again for your beautiful reactions.❤️🇨🇦👍
Pink Floyd.....the sound of emotions. You can't just listen - you experience them. If you leave a PF performance and not be moved, you have no soul. You two 'get' it. Thank you for letting your emotions go beyond a simple "wow". Bravo.
yes, you are right, Pink Floyd is a gift to humanity, and no band had a better concerts when it comes to lighting, stage, scenering , production , assembly men, etc, etc.... god bless you both
Grew up on Floyd and im 59 now.. they still manage to place us in suspended animation while our ears are trained on every single note and vocals. you can never be old and not have experienced floyd. everyone has had one of floyds songs played to there ears at somepoint. you both are so invested in a performance when it hits the spot and we all love the reactions.
My big sister is 52 and she grew up with Pink Floyd like my brother (age 51) and I (age 45), and the only song she likes is Wish You Were Here, while my brother also has the highest amount of love and appreciation for their music. I’m sure most people have heard a song from them but they haven’t embraced them. Their lyrics can be very cryptic and metaphorical and not all people understand it. There’s people who’s heard their name but never heard a song from them. Pink Floyd is a gift to humanity because they take you on a journey which only grows as you age. My daughter is 23, and she started listening to them at the age of 15, and they continue to grow with her.
Greetings from Miami, Florida. What great reactions from both of you! This is one of my favorite Pink Floyd performances. There are 10 performers onstage giving everything to creating this awesome audio-visual experience. The light show looks futuristic by today’s standard; yet this concert took place almost 30 years ago in 1994.
The best way I can articulate the lighting at the Pink Floyd shows I've attended is...organic. The lighting changes depending on the emotive effect the music is intended to have on the listener. A good deal of the music in this song has a dissonant quality and the lighting for the most part is dark and ominous to match that dissonant sound. In the parts where it looks like the stage is a blowing up or a UFO is landing with all the bright lights, Gilmour is just shredding the guitar. It feels like the lighting is the finale of a top-tier fireworks show where the lights and sounds are out of control. This aspect sets Pink Floyd apart from any concert I've ever attended. The crew that controls those lights are geniuses themselves. I guess that it doesn't hurt that the lighting guys likely had approval for a gazillion dollar lighting budget.
I can only say, I Love you two. I was there for this tour in BC. I was in back. it was insanely perfect. What i would like to add. In the video when the lights white out the entire stage? that is not how the camera percieves the event. it actually looked like that. the entire stage whited out in a soft glow of whiteness. the peak of the arc of stage lighting was about 5 story building high.
They tap into the Collective Consciousness, and that's why it hits in some kind of ethereal way. It goes deep. Into your cells where it resonates with your being. Beautiful. Heaven will have to have Pink Floyd music ❤
dominika's reaction is the most honest,adorable,heartfelt reaction i've seen regarding floyd.she's got a good ear as having a good ear you not only listen but also feel,pink floyd absolutely overwhelm you with feel,passion,soundscapes,timing,atmosphere and heart.numerous times i've been listening to them and reflected on my life and dear departed loved ones and had to get myself together as i was that choked.keep the reactions coming folks and show roger waters some love and give "the wall live in berlin 1990" a go,namely "nobody home" my song and the line "i've got a strong urge to fly...but i've got nowhere to fly to" pretty much sums up my life,also a total showstopper "another brick in the wall part 3/goodbye cruel world" has to be one of the greatest performances ever.roger's power,feel,anger,theatrics etc are a sight to behold."hey you" another classic with paul carrick what a voice.for more roger "perfect sense" from the in the flesh concert,have a good day folks
You don't listen to Pink Floyd, you experience them. I saw this tour live in '94 and just sat in the stadium for what seemed like an eternity afterward while my heart settled down as I came back to reality
This is a prime example of what separates David Gilmour from his peers... PURE EMOTION! Your tears were so wonderful in that you were truly getting it. This brought me back to my first experience with seeing this live performance.Sorrow was projected in every way, and it hits me every single time I watch it.
So lovely to see a couple like this really connect with the music of the mighty Pink Floyd in the way that I witnessed in this reaction to Sorrow. I always say that the best reactions are the silent ones. Your words at the end truly expressed a great understanding of Pink Floyd'd music. I enjoyed your reaction as much as I did listening to Sorrow. Thank you.
I'm grateful to be born for the opportunity to hear and experience Pink Floyd. They are not of this world. David Gilmour is my #1 person I'd like to meet. He's very humble and I doubt he truly knows how amazing he is. Your reaction proves that you are genuine and deeply connected human beings. I pity people who don't get Pink Floyd.
Your(wife) explanation of your experience is so like mine I never understood anyone this well ever before... I used to find myself crying in the middle of listening any PF song and would feel the pressure which I could never explain...
Thank you for this reaction and thank you for your tears. I've been listening to Floyd since 1976 and it's not just music, it makes me FEEL too. There is something special, unique about them that reaches into me and fills me with wonder, fear, ephiphany, joy, unlike any other band.
Best reaction ever! My only regret is that I never got to see them live. I have seen a couple of PF tribute bands which were great too but not as good as that shown in the pulse concert which I have watched many, many times now.
The word I always used to describe Pink Floyd's music (especially live) is immersive. It's not background music you half listen to while you do something else. When they play, you're in it. It surrounds you, it permeates you. Everything else is background noise you tune out.
One of the most genuine reactions I've ever seen. You and especially your wife really gets it. Precisely how I feel. I remember the first time hearing and seeing this performance of this song. Incredible how heavy this song and especially the intro is. With the stroboscobic lights... It's absolutely amazing and beyond anything I've ever experienced. Again, you both really get it and you dont have to defend yourself for it. It almost looks like your wife is in actual anguish.. Her face doen't lie, gasping for air and especially the eyebrows never ever lie.. I suspect your wife is hypersensitive and tunes in on all the frequencies and emotions (from all over this world) that this song generates. That is way to much to take in.. You cant prepare for this track, and I absolutely love your reaction to it. Very human-like. Not desensitized like so many people nowadays. Hope you're both well and wish you a fantastic new year
And you made me cry……..all the Genres of music ….Rock, Jazz, Blues, Country and Western, Rap , Classical.. and then Pink Floyd…up above the rest….they’re out of this world….❤
This music also brings tears to my eyes,its amazing what humans can do and produce,i love your reactions as you both are completely taken away by it and it absolutely brilliant to see,after seeing a few of your reactions now you just got 1 more subscriber👍❤️
This is such a powerful song, and the concert is probably one of the best, and not because it's the most sensational, but because it's one of the most balanced performances ever. The balance is in the moods achieved in the various songs (emotions run from happy to sad, relaxed to intense) and in the production (the music, lights, sounds, movements, etc.), all of which contribute to the overall impression of each moment. The crazy thing is that no one in Pink Floyd is a virtuoso in the usual sense, but they are all masters of their craft in terms of the essentially human. This is not meant to diminish virtuosity, which has merit in itself, but meant to highlight the ability of Pink Floyd (and other artists for sure) to connect art to humanity. Pulse is a perfect storm of talent, craft, and the human touch. I doubt anyone in the band was thinking like that on stage (they probably were trying to perform well, had to rehearse hard, keep tons of technical matters in mind while performing, etc.), but the result of such dedication and discipline is something transcendent. Someone below mentioned the song, "Fat Old Sun," and I'd say that, along with some others, can act as a counterpoint to the intensity of a song like "Sorrow." In fact, that Pink Floyd's catalogue is so diverse speaks to their overall range and talent. Love your reactions, your interactions as a couple, your appreciation of the music, and also your appreciation of us fans! Peace!
OMG I've listened to Floyd since the 80s , and there was a period I had to stop because I was getting too emotional, I love that you two beautiful people get it too , love to you both ❤️ ♥️
When the show started, Pulse tour, I actually passed out being overwhelmed. No alcohol or drugs just too much to handle. I was fine after a minute or two and I enjoyed the rest of the show. Happens to be my favorite show ever.
I saw them at Legion Field (stadium) filled to the brim with 70 thousand like-minded people all on the same 'frequency' - so to speak. Probably 9 months prior, I spent the night in line in Ferguson Center on my college campus to be there when the ticket office opened. It was their Division Bell tour in May 1994. The show was total, absolute sensory overload. I don't know how they pulled this off night after night. I recall reading somewhere they had different sections of the PA on different delays so sound would reach everyone at the same time. The stage was just so absolutely enormous. Lasers were beaming just over the top of the south end zone. I have vivid flashbacks of portions of the show but it was so much to take in that I couldn't commit it all to memory. I'd give anything to go back and have that experience for just a few minutes. I expect there will be nothing like it for the rest of my days.
They had an amazing light jockey. A good light jockey can lift a show to another level. I used to frequent a nightclub in Manchester in the 90's called Bowlers, it was a massive place 4k capacity with a football field sized dancefloor (still is, it reopened some years ago) and a full concert lighting setup. One night for about five minutes the lightshow became so intense and synchronised with the music that everybody in the place stopped dancing. Everybody was just stood there with their mouths open, when the song changed everybody was just stood there asking each other in a dazed state "did you just see that?" I'll never forget it.
I note during the comments she said 'I can't put my finger on it' and also 'lost for words', she really is getting into Pink Floyd, the lyrics of their songs are coming into her every day speech. I recommend 'Coming back to Life' from the same concert and the Division Bell album, one of my favourite tracks, sure to bring the tears on.
hi i dont usually comment much here on youtube I've subbed to your channel a couple of weeks ago but both of you's have got the most beautiful souls I've seen for reactors to music such wonderful people you are , and Pink Floyd's music just rips into your soul and heart and mind unbelievable stay safe and best wishes from the U.K much love and happiness x
You we’re breaking my heart. But how do they do it? A group of people come together and bring an idea to fulfillment. Imagine if we could all come together in spite of our differences and decide to make the world a better and safer place. I think Pink Floyd has that message. You two are beautiful! The obvious love you have for each other is wonderful.
Pink Floyd are a gift from another universe. They touch every sense and sometimes it can be too much but you needs to enjoy and emerse yourself to the complete emotional experience.
This is the best 'Sorrow' reaction I've seen yet. Making the right choice as a video source also contributes to that (yes, that was the right video.) I loved the lady's sincere comments after the song. I wasn't sure about you before, but I'm realizing more and more that you're getting more involved in the Pink Floyd universe. Up until now, millions of people have realized that Pink Floyd is saying something that they have felt but had not been able to express before, with an extraordinary musical insight. I didn't really want to say this, but I guess now it's time: Pink Floyd isn't just the greatest band ever. They are the greatest artists ever..
Wonderful reaction - 'it's not just music, it's a gift to humanity' sums it up nicely. I'm not embarrassed to say that Pink Floyd can move me to tears.
A lot of people weep when listening to this song... I was at the 1994 Pulse concert in Pasadena CA, I went both nights... Lots of tears of joy and sorrow those nights... It's strange how Floyd brings out to conflicting emotions at the same time...it was truly an amazing experience...
I have to say - it's OK to feel this music. If you do, then it is mission accomplished for them as artists. I saw them twice in concert and to say it was epic is an understatement. ❤
Don’t worry guys we all get emotional with Pink Floyd especially with Dave G and the magic fingers and guitar ❤I’ve been a fan since the seventies and still find it moving, timeless I think 🤔
Hello Domenica, you dont have to hide your emotions cause you can feel very much if you listen to Pink Floyd ! This emotions are a great gift ,you sould be lucky to have this feelings ! I love your reactions ! And i wish you a great easter time, love you all ! Greatings and love from germany ♥️♥️🥰♥️♥️🥰♥️♥️
I saw the "Pulse" Tour in a Stadium in Germany in 2004. It's an unforgettable experience. Not only the immense volume and the brilliant quadraphonic sound go through your whole body - the music hits you right in the soul, the colours and effects make the whole thing even more intense and you wish that this concert would never end.
I'm sitting here watching live versions of the setlist songs David is playing on his new tour. I live in Canada but I'm flying in to NYC for the show. Dominica, I cry during EVERY one of his solos! He just makes the guitar emote! ❤❤❤ You will be with me in spirit, throughout the show 🥰
Hypnotic is the word your looking for they fire your emotions and for you my dear it's to the core I got very emotional watch you but for all that you absolutely love listening to pink floyd and you will continue to listen to them as I will and millions of other fans
When the album "The momentary laps of reason" came out, we took our big Loudspeakers out on the balcony at the party for new years day and the song "Sorrow" played into the atmosphäre. I love Pink Floyd since my age of 12, at 1970. My older brother and sister "gave" music to me. I have many LPs and could enjoy them live. Btw: one of the background singer is Sam Brown.
There is music...there is musical performance...and then there is Pink floyd ❤
second to none regarding this pulse concert i have never seen anything better...infact i dont think i ever will
saw this 5 times. This was an experience not a concert. After every show when the people were leaving it was so quite as if they couldn't believe what they just saw & experience I have people next to me crying even at Dave's solo concerts
And there Is Dire Straits and there Is Queen!!!!!!
Yes there are songs and then there's music 🇬🇧🍄
seen them live in 1994 rotterdam blew me away
In my 60 years in this planet I’ve seen hundreds of concerts but the Pulse concert was the best I ever saw and David’s guitar solos always move me to tears. ❤
seriously... one of the few live shows better than the studio version...
@@mikeharry1799queen, led zepp too
I was at this gig.
And yes it was awesome. Still gives me goosebumps watching it all theses years later.
I’ve seen hundreds of bands and some of the biggest in the business.
Without doubt Pink floyd pulse if by far the best I’ve ever seen.
The greatest live recording of a music performance of all time! I have watched this concert more than I can count.
Man.... I'm 40, I don't have many regrets... The one regret I DO HAVE is not seing them live... ;( Especially Pulse...
Her reactions to Floyd are awesome. She really gets it. There simply is no band better. Like its really not even close. They are just a whole new level of emotion. Something more than music.
Well said, Pink Floyd is a gift to humanity! If you react like this on "Sorrow" (not that it is not another masterpiece) I cannot even imagine what will happen to you by reacting to "Shine on you crazy diamond" 😊
Pink Floyd touches your soul like no other . Embrace the emotions ❤

I agree with you. The sound from the concert speakers made the experience unforgettable
Don't worry, I was at this concert and my eyes were streaming with tears the whole time. ✌❤🇬🇧
13:45 That bit where Dave and Guy just giggle about how awesome they are.
You will never see the likes of this ever again. It is the greatest concert in history, and I'm an old codger who has been going to these things since the 60's.
These guys are the benchmark.
They were born with a gift to tap into human emotion.
If you don't feel some kind of way while listening to Pink Floyd you're dead inside. I love how loving and concerned you were for your wife. It speaks volumes.
One of the reasons why I love your reactions so much is because you listen to music from your hearts and I know that if there is an emotion in a song, you will most probably feel it and respond to it. 🖤
The guitar work in this performance is particularly overwhelming. Absolutely filthy and I love it.
I literally discovered this song at 2am last night. I spent the next 4 hours watching reactions to it, and one of my first thoughts was: "I can't wait for MerchantOfAlba's reaction to this." Amazing reaction.
After 51 years of listening to pink floyd they still bring out those feelings in me. Their is no one like pink floyd and never will be. They will be played at my funeral, who else is there.
It's alright to cry, it just means you get it.
I grew up with Pink Floyd because of my parents, and I started listening to them on my own when I was 12 years old. I’m 45 now and I will listen to them till the day I die. It’s not just a band or music, it’s art. Their songs affects you in every aspect… physically, mentally, psychologically and especially emotionally. David Gilmour sings and plays his heart out on that guitar 🎸 It’s like they consume every fiber of your being. I’ve also passed it on to my daughter who started listening to them when she was 15 and she loves them even more now at the age of 23, and they will grow with her forward on. She says that she definitely will pass it on to her children when the time comes. I’m so grateful that I have Pink Floyd in my life, and I wish that everyone could experience them like I do and like you do now. There’s a meaning,, a message and a purpose behind their songs. Pink Floyd is without a doubt the GOAT!! Thank you so much for embracing them and pass them on to everyone you know 🙏🏼 You have a new subscriber here 👏🏼
You young lady,feel the emotion of the song,you have a wonderful soul 😘😘
There’s bands, there’s songs and then there’s Pink Floyd… I have seen them 3 times including this tour … I’m so glad I was born in the Pink Floyd era….
This is what it sounds like when a guitar star brings his instrument to "life". 👍Unique, what other guitarists can do that with such perfection? There are not many bands that can trigger such emotions. Pink Floyd is one big work of art.🤘
That's what great music should do, touch you deeply and generate emotions. Pink Floyd can do this, again and again.
Pink Floyd is a trip. I'm 62 and I discovered them at 14. My cousins passed me a joint and put some Floyd on. I had no idea. For a small town kid who knew nothing of nothing, this stuff blew my mind and my ears wide open. I was slackjawed because it went to my very soul which had never happened before.
Thank You. One of my favs Live PF. Saw pulse tour show twice. Can't believe I was there. Your channel has the best version and best audio I've found!!. Thank You! Awesome reaction btw. Your soul was speaking to you. 👍

I often switch over to Supertramp after a Pink Floyd session. They are well worth the effort. Thanks again for your beautiful reactions.❤️🇨🇦👍
Pink Floyd.....the sound of emotions. You can't just listen - you experience them. If you leave a PF performance and not be moved, you have no soul. You two 'get' it. Thank you for letting your emotions go beyond a simple "wow". Bravo.
Keep going. You two have genuine, sincere reactions and reviews. Bravo.
Wish I could like this twice, peace be upon you two.
yes, you are right, Pink Floyd is a gift to humanity, and no band had a better concerts when it comes to lighting, stage, scenering , production , assembly men, etc, etc.... god bless you both
Grew up on Floyd and im 59 now.. they still manage to place us in suspended animation while our ears are trained on every single note and vocals. you can never be old and not have experienced floyd. everyone has had one of floyds songs played to there ears at somepoint. you both are so invested in a performance when it hits the spot and we all love the reactions.

I've listened to this song many times, when I hear the opening part, I still get the prickly feeling down my neck and spine.
There is a reason the concert was called PULSE, Pink Floyd are one of the most intense bands ever when it comes to bringing out emotions
Cela fait 50ans que j'écoute PF, et j ai toujours les larmes aux yeux en entendant leurs musiques. PF a la capacité a toucher l'âme.
this is the most spectacular review I ever watched out of thousands.... THANK YOU!!
They are so natural that they just love playing their music not just performing,masters at work all of them 😍 and you both feel it genuinely
Well said
What to say? I am listening to them for a while.. no words..
I always love your wife’s observations and perspective. This performance is worth watching again and again. It gets better each time. Love you guys.

I completely understand she was blown away by this song. It is haunting. Pink Floyd makes you feel things you never knew was there.
I can only say, I Love you two. I was there for this tour in BC. I was in back. it was insanely perfect. What i would like to add. In the video when the lights white out the entire stage? that is not how the camera percieves the event. it actually looked like that. the entire stage whited out in a soft glow of whiteness. the peak of the arc of stage lighting was about 5 story building high.
Your reactions and comments are priceless.
Best reaction to this masterpiece ever.
I hope to watch you experiment more Pink Floyd.
Searching now.
I absolutely love you guys! Your reactions are so real and so relatable. Don't ever change!
A beautiful reaction. It truly shows the power of music.. it triggers different memories and emotions for each of us, but we're both crying.
They tap into the Collective Consciousness, and that's why it hits in some kind of ethereal way. It goes deep. Into your cells where it resonates with your being. Beautiful. Heaven will have to have Pink Floyd music ❤
dominika's reaction is the most honest,adorable,heartfelt reaction i've seen regarding floyd.she's got a good ear as having a good ear you not only listen but also feel,pink floyd absolutely overwhelm you with feel,passion,soundscapes,timing,atmosphere and heart.numerous times i've been listening to them and reflected on my life and dear departed loved ones and had to get myself together as i was that choked.keep the reactions coming folks and show roger waters some love and give "the wall live in berlin 1990" a go,namely "nobody home" my song and the line "i've got a strong urge to fly...but i've got nowhere to fly to" pretty much sums up my life,also a total showstopper "another brick in the wall part 3/goodbye cruel world" has to be one of the greatest performances ever.roger's power,feel,anger,theatrics etc are a sight to behold."hey you" another classic with paul carrick what a voice.for more roger "perfect sense" from the in the flesh concert,have a good day folks
Best Floyd reaction couple, don't make it your last. 🤟
When the singers kick in you just don’t want it to stop , truly amazing
You don't listen to Pink Floyd, you experience them. I saw this tour live in '94 and just sat in the stadium for what seemed like an eternity afterward while my heart settled down as I came back to reality
This is a prime example of what separates David Gilmour from his peers... PURE EMOTION! Your tears were so wonderful in that you were truly getting it. This brought me back to my first experience with seeing this live performance.Sorrow was projected in every way, and it hits me every single time I watch it.
The Pulse concert... the best ever.
So lovely to see a couple like this really connect with the music of the mighty Pink Floyd in the way that I witnessed in this reaction to Sorrow. I always say that the best reactions are the silent ones. Your words at the end truly expressed a great understanding of Pink Floyd'd music. I enjoyed your reaction as much as I did listening to Sorrow. Thank you.
I'm grateful to be born for the opportunity to hear and experience Pink Floyd. They are not of this world. David Gilmour is my #1 person I'd like to meet. He's very humble and I doubt he truly knows how amazing he is. Your reaction proves that you are genuine and deeply connected human beings. I pity people who don't get Pink Floyd.
Your(wife) explanation of your experience is so like mine I never understood anyone this well ever before... I used to find myself crying in the middle of listening any PF song and would feel the pressure which I could never explain...
Gilmore turns his guitar into an orchestra and then makes the orchestra cry. It’s sublime, it’s beautiful, it’s legendary.
Thank you for this reaction and thank you for your tears. I've been listening to Floyd since 1976 and it's not just music, it makes me FEEL too. There is something special, unique about them that reaches into me and fills me with wonder, fear, ephiphany, joy, unlike any other band.
You listen to songs and the music and you groove and it's a good or great song...but you listen to Pink Floyd and it lifts you away.
Never apologise for shedding a tear when listening to music, especially Pink Floyd.❤
This is what Pink Floyd do best , They make you feel , Some of their songs make my eyes pee as well :)x
You two have the perfect emotion and responds. You have to feel their music , not just hear it. Floyd is unique and magical. Great job.
My own favorite PF song. I understand how moved and overwhelmed Dominica felt.
Best reaction ever! My only regret is that I never got to see them live. I have seen a couple of PF tribute bands which were great too but not as good as that shown in the pulse concert which I have watched many, many times now.
this is why pink floyd is magic they take you to another world !!! i love it since 1967 i was 19 and i still listen to théms for ever !
The word I always used to describe Pink Floyd's music (especially live) is immersive. It's not background music you half listen to while you do something else. When they play, you're in it. It surrounds you, it permeates you. Everything else is background noise you tune out.
If you pay attention, you'll notice that, through the entire concert, the crowd is perfectly still and mesmerized.
One of the most genuine reactions I've ever seen. You and especially your wife really gets it. Precisely how I feel. I remember the first time hearing and seeing this performance of this song. Incredible how heavy this song and especially the intro is. With the stroboscobic lights... It's absolutely amazing and beyond anything I've ever experienced. Again, you both really get it and you dont have to defend yourself for it. It almost looks like your wife is in actual anguish.. Her face doen't lie, gasping for air and especially the eyebrows never ever lie.. I suspect your wife is hypersensitive and tunes in on all the frequencies and emotions (from all over this world) that this song generates. That is way to much to take in.. You cant prepare for this track, and I absolutely love your reaction to it. Very human-like. Not desensitized like so many people nowadays. Hope you're both well and wish you a fantastic new year
Pink Floyd is a immersive, felt experience, and your reaction is not unusual.
And you made me cry……..all the Genres of music ….Rock, Jazz, Blues, Country and Western, Rap , Classical.. and then Pink Floyd…up above the rest….they’re out of this world….❤
This music also brings tears to my eyes,its amazing what humans can do and produce,i love your reactions as you both are completely taken away by it and it absolutely brilliant to see,after seeing a few of your reactions now you just got 1 more subscriber👍❤️
Wait till you hear their songs for the thousandth time.... even better
MerchantOfAlba: Here I've felt the fullest reaction over these several months. We, and you, rode this through.
From Oklahoma, USA, I just love you two. Yes the music draws you in, the words touch your soul, and yes they look like my neighbor too! Best wishes!
This is such a powerful song, and the concert is probably one of the best, and not because it's the most sensational, but because it's one of the most balanced performances ever. The balance is in the moods achieved in the various songs (emotions run from happy to sad, relaxed to intense) and in the production (the music, lights, sounds, movements, etc.), all of which contribute to the overall impression of each moment. The crazy thing is that no one in Pink Floyd is a virtuoso in the usual sense, but they are all masters of their craft in terms of the essentially human. This is not meant to diminish virtuosity, which has merit in itself, but meant to highlight the ability of Pink Floyd (and other artists for sure) to connect art to humanity. Pulse is a perfect storm of talent, craft, and the human touch. I doubt anyone in the band was thinking like that on stage (they probably were trying to perform well, had to rehearse hard, keep tons of technical matters in mind while performing, etc.), but the result of such dedication and discipline is something transcendent.
Someone below mentioned the song, "Fat Old Sun," and I'd say that, along with some others, can act as a counterpoint to the intensity of a song like "Sorrow." In fact, that Pink Floyd's catalogue is so diverse speaks to their overall range and talent. Love your reactions, your interactions as a couple, your appreciation of the music, and also your appreciation of us fans! Peace!
OMG I've listened to Floyd since the 80s , and there was a period I had to stop because I was getting too emotional, I love that you two beautiful people get it too , love to you both ❤️ ♥️
When the show started, Pulse tour, I actually passed out being overwhelmed. No alcohol or drugs just too much to handle. I was fine after a minute or two and I enjoyed the rest of the show. Happens to be my favorite show ever.
I saw them at Legion Field (stadium) filled to the brim with 70 thousand like-minded people all on the same 'frequency' - so to speak. Probably 9 months prior, I spent the night in line in Ferguson Center on my college campus to be there when the ticket office opened. It was their Division Bell tour in May 1994. The show was total, absolute sensory overload. I don't know how they pulled this off night after night. I recall reading somewhere they had different sections of the PA on different delays so sound would reach everyone at the same time. The stage was just so absolutely enormous. Lasers were beaming just over the top of the south end zone. I have vivid flashbacks of portions of the show but it was so much to take in that I couldn't commit it all to memory. I'd give anything to go back and have that experience for just a few minutes. I expect there will be nothing like it for the rest of my days.
That's why pulse is the greatest concert ever recorded
They had an amazing light jockey. A good light jockey can lift a show to another level. I used to frequent a nightclub in Manchester in the 90's called Bowlers, it was a massive place 4k capacity with a football field sized dancefloor (still is, it reopened some years ago) and a full concert lighting setup. One night for about five minutes the lightshow became so intense and synchronised with the music that everybody in the place stopped dancing. Everybody was just stood there with their mouths open, when the song changed everybody was just stood there asking each other in a dazed state "did you just see that?" I'll never forget it.
MY ABSOLUTE FAVORITE LIVE PERFORMANCE BY ANYONE...ALL-TIME.
JUST INCREDIBLE.
Love you guys.
Spot on...no one like P.F. ...NO ONE...!!! ...UNTOUCHABLE...
I note during the comments she said 'I can't put my finger on it' and also 'lost for words', she really is getting into Pink Floyd, the lyrics of their songs are coming into her every day speech. I recommend 'Coming back to Life' from the same concert and the Division Bell album, one of my favourite tracks, sure to bring the tears on.
I get the same emotion every time I listen to these guys
hi i dont usually comment much here on youtube I've subbed to your channel a couple of weeks ago but both of you's have got the most beautiful souls I've seen for reactors to music such wonderful people you are , and Pink Floyd's music just rips into your soul and heart and mind unbelievable stay safe and best wishes from the U.K much love and happiness x
You we’re breaking my heart.
But how do they do it?
A group of people come together and bring an idea to fulfillment. Imagine if we could all come together in spite of our differences and decide to make the world a better and safer place.
I think Pink Floyd has that message.
You two are beautiful! The obvious love you have for each other is wonderful.
Pink Floyd are a gift from another universe. They touch every sense and sometimes it can be too much but you needs to enjoy and emerse yourself to the complete emotional experience.
This is the best 'Sorrow' reaction I've seen yet. Making the right choice as a video source also contributes to that (yes, that was the right video.) I loved the lady's sincere comments after the song. I wasn't sure about you before, but I'm realizing more and more that you're getting more involved in the Pink Floyd universe. Up until now, millions of people have realized that Pink Floyd is saying something that they have felt but had not been able to express before, with an extraordinary musical insight. I didn't really want to say this, but I guess now it's time: Pink Floyd isn't just the greatest band ever. They are the greatest artists ever..
Wonderful reaction - 'it's not just music, it's a gift to humanity' sums it up nicely. I'm not embarrassed to say that Pink Floyd can move me to tears.
I know how you feel even though you don't know how you feel....
A lot of people weep when listening to this song... I was at the 1994 Pulse concert in Pasadena CA, I went both nights... Lots of tears of joy and sorrow those nights... It's strange how Floyd brings out to conflicting emotions at the same time...it was truly an amazing experience...
You listen to music.
You feel Pink Floyd.
Great analogy
I have to say - it's OK to feel this music. If you do, then it is mission accomplished for them as artists. I saw them twice in concert and to say it was epic is an understatement. ❤
Don’t worry guys we all get emotional with Pink Floyd especially with Dave G and the magic fingers and guitar ❤I’ve been a fan since the seventies and still find it moving, timeless I think 🤔
Please never use the phrase "Dave G and the magic fingers" ever again.
Why not ?
Hello Domenica, you dont have to hide your emotions cause you can feel very much if you listen to Pink Floyd ! This emotions are a great gift ,you sould be lucky to have this feelings ! I love your reactions ! And i wish you a great easter time, love you all ! Greatings and love from germany ♥️♥️🥰♥️♥️🥰♥️♥️
I saw the "Pulse" Tour in a Stadium in Germany in 2004. It's an unforgettable experience. Not only the immense volume and the brilliant quadraphonic sound go through your whole body - the music hits you right in the soul, the colours and effects make the whole thing even more intense and you wish that this concert would never end.
9:00 Gilmourized. Happens to us all. It’s a magical thing he’s got
I'm sitting here watching live versions of the setlist songs David is playing on his new tour. I live in Canada but I'm flying in to NYC for the show. Dominica, I cry during EVERY one of his solos! He just makes the guitar emote! ❤❤❤ You will be with me in spirit, throughout the show 🥰
Hypnotic is the word your looking for they fire your emotions and for you my dear it's to the core I got very emotional watch you but for all that you absolutely love listening to pink floyd and you will continue to listen to them as I will and millions of other fans
P.F never gets old. I can listen to them all day.
When the album "The momentary laps of reason" came out, we took our big Loudspeakers out on the balcony at the party for new years day and the song "Sorrow" played into the atmosphäre. I love Pink Floyd since my age of 12, at 1970. My older brother and sister "gave" music to me. I have many LPs and could enjoy them live. Btw: one of the background singer is Sam Brown.
Your tears speak volumes on why music is essential ❤
