Keep going fellas. This is the way this piece of music was intended to be experienced. Headphones, listening to all the nuances and allowing the music and lyrics to create the story in your head. Don't listen to anyone try to tell you to watch the movie first. You can get the complete understanding just from listening to the music. The movie was created years after the album came out so for those of us around back then this is the way we experienced this music. As with most music before the MTV video era.
Absolutely. Video is just a unnecessary distraction ☺️
Agree completely. I didn’t even really like the movie, but I love the album
Yes, I agree completely!!! The movie was done years after. It has its moments , but, listening to the audio tells the story the way it was intended to be heard.
Yessir, and I hear tell that Roger Waters--who masterminded the album--was not fond of the movie. On his last album with Floyd--The Final Cut--he throws shade on it:
"Not now John, we gotta get on with the film show
Hollywood waits at the end of the rainbow
Who cares what it's about as long as the kids go
So not now John, we gotta get on with the film show"
WELL....... I ALSO HAD A BONG WITH ICE IN IT..........
"Look mummy, there's an aeroplane up in the sky." Fucking haunting words...
My grandmother survived bombings in WWII, and she never recovered from the sheer violence and indescribable noise. Even more than 30 years later, thunder terrified her. This song always reminded me of her.
I had a neighbour who would hide in a wardrobe whenever it thundered , as a result of surviving bombing in WW2
@@johngriffiths118 Right, I can't even begin to comprehend the horror of going through that. The kind of thing that haunts you the rest of your life....
Goodbye Blue sky is such a beautiful song with such a dark meaning!!! An innocent child sees a fascinating beautiful thing with an airplane flying overhead and doesn't realize it's someone he doesn't even know trying to bomb them out of existence!!!
you guys should check out this song from the movie THE WALL the animation that Gerald Scharfe did brings this song up to a whole new level!!!
Isn't it strange how things can go. I'm a guy from '61, born from a father who escaped a German labour camp in 1943, while listening to a record made in 1978/1979 by a guy who was born in the year my father made his escape, telling about circumstances my father lived through and got PTSD/Shell-Shock from. It's a circle with four corners that somehow has come to a full. And all this while staring at nodding, deeply concentrated bespectacled individuals who mean well. I can appreciate that. Cheers fellaz. Warm greetings from Belgium. I follow around 30 "reaction" channels and you guys are the one I appreciate the most as of lately. Subdued listening, sharp responses to what you hear and an overall understanding of the music. The latter is what most reaction channels miss. Somehow, your mind is always in the right frame. Cheerio lads.
thats some concise, incisive beautiful writing mon ami belge ;)
We had to upload piece by piece due to RUclips blocking the full video.
It's all good boys. Keep it up
Pink Floyd is important. Beyond the music. This is beautiful and dark at the same time.
This is my all-time favorite Floyd song! Great to see your reaction.
The sons of the greatest generation creating the greatest music that will last forever.
Warnings of war... pretty relevant today! Awesome track!
Keep going the, this album has many ebbs & flows, peaks and valleys.
Such a killer track to start off side 2 - this one is even more powerful when you hear and see it in the movie (which you should definitely check out). What a way to start my day - great reaction as always, guys. Cheers from Canada!
A HUGE YES on watching the movie. I don't think you can really understand the album well without watching the film.
I agree. Sometimes I forget that many of my favorite rock guys grew up under the constant threat of World War II.
After seeing the original movie go watch the Roger Waters The Wall concert, worth seeing and gives some insights into why Rogers is they way he is.
The beauty of the music underscored by the darkness of the lyrics. Another brilliant, albeit short, song.
They really make you feel like you're there right behind the characters eyes 🤯😱
I can't help but get the image from the movie on this song - the musical soaring is replicated in video, and the changing of the mood.
M’kay, that was quick. I liked it.
😊 Sorry I'm late! What'd I miss? 😚 Oooh! #TheWall 🧱 I'm all in! 🤗 Here we go.... (needle drops......) 🎧🍿🥰🐰
Love this track. 🎶❤️🎶
This one always gets me. The utter sadness of war. :(
I really enjoy you guys reacting to Pink Floyd. I hope you get inspired by it and use it in your art. Either way enjoy and I will be watching
Many people of Gilmour and Waters generation grew up sent away from the English cities to the countryside to escape the bombs of the Nazi blitz. As a result many grew up with no father since many men perished in the bombings or the fighting later in Europe. This experience colored the creative themes of many artists including The Who and The Rolling Stones as well as Led Zeppelin.
Wait till you get to "Waiting For The Worms".... BEST song on the album.! IMO.
And I love this album, listen front to back often....
Love it 😍 So soothing but what a message.
Goodbye Blue Sky doesn`t advance the narrative, but is basically a re-cap of Side 1...the initial brick of his father`s death. Fun fact...the little boy at the beginning "Look mummy there`s an aeroplane up in the sky" is Harry Waters (Roger`s son).
All right brothers!! Ready to ride with you on this one! The good old days when you played albums side to side and rarely had to get up to skip a song. All killer,no filler!
It’s not just the music that is meant to be experienced, watch the video from the movie if you want chills
The vocals on this song…and “It’s a Long Way There” by Little River Band do something to me…
So Goddamn beautiful
Division Bell is another incredible album by the Floyd :)
The Wall. Oh, the Wall. It got me through high school. That said, it's a little like NiN. Amazing work by my favorite band, but just so GD depressing. I love it, and love to look back at it, but as I get older I far more appreciative the early 70s floyd, where they all got along, or the post waters floyd. I just can't be that glum all the time anymore.
“Trent’s life was utterly turned upside down by Pink Floyd’s The Wall. ‘I’d never heard music that had that naked, honest emotion,’ he said in 2000. ‘That was a real turning point for me. I must have listened to it a million times.’”
Such a mellow soothing song considering the horrors of the subject matter. I can't imagine what it was like going through what people did during world war two,and I hope myself and everyone else never do. But that's never going to happen. Or if it does,I can't see it being anytime soon. Peace brothers 🕊️
Think about what folks are now going through in Ukraine: once the planes are all gone, the pain will indeed linger on
@@wdrauch I was just thinkin the same thing reading Gary's post. It's easy to forget things that are happening thousands of miles away. Of course, let's not forget Yemen and Syria and other such "forgotten" war zones. The media hypes up Ukraine because it's in Europe and "civilized" folks aren't supposed to bomb each other anymore, but here we are, trying to out-escalate each other, even as the nukes stand ready to launch...
Never going to happen? Or at least not anytime soon? I beg to differ. Ukraine, for one. Yemen (by our pals the Saudis) for another. Syrian rebels bombed by Assad and his Russian allies in the mid-10's (No one in the West cared about those brown, non-Christians, though--at least not enough to risk nuclear war by giving them tanks, etc, , like we're doing now in Ukraine). And you ARE right: This STILL ain't "WW2." Still horrific, though. So yes, "Peace, bro' !"
@@joescott8877 I'm not sure what you are begging to differ about. I was simply saying that it would be nice if no one ever had to deal with the horrors of war again. But that's unlikely to ever happen,and if it does it will be a long time before the human race reaches that point. As for no one in the west caring about what happens to brown skinned non Christians,well how can you know what the average person cares about. Most of us have zero control over what evil politicians do. I want peace, safety,love, happiness and a life of longevity for everyone. Have a great day 😉
@@joescott8877 yep, Ukraine was just the first current example that popped into my head. But as you’ve pointed out, there are many many others. To me, the point is that after the physical violence ends, the physical, mental and Psychological pain still linger on
The boy at the beginning is Roger's son Harry.
Such a sad song that is repeated in Modern war
Pink, the main character, is a child during the war, when the German Air Force bombed them. It's something that generation went through. My mum's family lived through the blitz. My grandfather worked at an aircraft factory that was bombed. My mum and grandmother were bombed going down the road and had to stop and hide in a ditch. Their town was heavily damaged by bombing. What Pink Floyd is doing here is stating all the causes (the bricks) that build the wall, and one of them was the terror of the war. Later Pink will turn torwards the evil that he is terrified of, the evil that killed his own father in the war.
This is later Ponk Floyd. The last album with the four players. Post Syd. Roger forced out Richard Wright fur thr next. Album, then Roger quit. Richard returned fir two final albums then died. They put out one more album as a tribute reworking tales of Richard's work on the final album into new tracks.
James Gang. Funk 49.
The next two songs Empty Spaces and Young Lust you almost have to do together because it will probably be very confusing otherwise
Uploading now
This is later boys
1979 to be exact
2 years after animals
The term "hauntingly beautiful" could well have been invented for this song. I also like a verse that's appropriate here from another song about war, one that y'all should be coming up on, well, next, maybe, in your Zeppelin journey! "Battle of Evermore." Robert Plant sings, correctly, that "The pain of War cannot exceed the woe of Aftermath."
imagine being a child during WW2 and having to run to the "Tube" underground stations during air raids...awful...I'm sure Pete Townsend felt the same (mentioned in his opus Tommy)
For further reference you should listen to the song this way. - Goodbye blue sky & Empty spaces & Young lust - One of my turns - Don't leave me now - Another brick in the wall part 3 & Goodbye cruel world - Hey you - Nobody home - Vera & Brings the boys back home - Comfortably numb - The show must go on & In the flesh - Run like hell - Waiting for the worms & Stop - The trial & Outside the wall. Otherwise you miss the flow of the songs.
@@marcelonazrocks Right, thanks
I’m still on board, but don’t have the lyrics pulled up.
Just let it happen
The concert aside from only playing in a few cities around the world, also played just The Wall from cover to cover, with all of the theatre one would expect. Never saw the movie since I saw it live in 1980. No concert ever like it before or after. Quite the spectacle.
Lucky to have seen them at the Nassau (NY) Coliseum in '80....
Make sure you catch a thread of 1 of the at-least-3 narratives. “Pink” the lead character whose personality flaws become a racist- dictator alter ego, Roger Waters’ and the band’s life at the time, threads of Syd Barrett’s madness, and so on ❤
Best album ever as an album🎉❤
Also remember there are 2 lead singers throughout
If you want to do it right, buy some edibles and watch the movie.
Yall choppin this up like crack
Look Mommy there's an airplane in the sky.. Next thing you no that airplane is dropping bombs..
At all possible you should try to listen to a whole side at one time I don’t know if RUclips would allow that
Drop D ...............
Recording the album apparently was a real sh!tshow. Nick didn't care much for it; it's rumored he recorded his drum parts then left, not hanging around the studio or showing much interest. Rick, aggravated that he caught Roger using session keyboardists, demanded producer credit. Roger refused. Rick was allegedly a little sloppy due to divorce and subsequent playboying, and Roger had him fired for lack of contribution. Dave, ticked over (his claim) writing "90% of 'Dogs'" on the previous LP but sharing credit, didn't appreciate Roger's lack of generosity....
Regardless, David Gilmour was the music director for the entire tour. 👍
Syd was the Piper, then Roger. Each tore apart the Floyd, and each left a testimony to madness.
I'm not sayn I'm correct but I think y'all are usta Gilmore on lead. Roger Waters was a huge part of the making of this album. N it's a bit of homage to there lost bud Mr Berret
As an aside I'll offer you a story about how I grew up with this album. When I was in high school there was this thing that you might aspire to if you were like me. It wasn't locked into any particular click but if you had the option it was assumed you would jump at the chance to take LSD and watch THE WALL. In my Junior year, it happened. Me and four other guys, not necessarily my best friends, took acid and watched the wall. WOW. It's not as easy as it sounds. The album gets dark.
Have you considered watching the Pink Floyd movie,. "The Wall",.. even if you do not react to it,. it is worth watching to really understand just how horrible this album is,.. making it one of the best albums of all time.
Not sure why y'all are reacting to this double album one track at a time. Just like the last three Floyd albums you've reacted to (perhaps even more so) there is a continual flow from one song to the next, furthering the storyline as it progresses. Chopping this one into individual songs completely ruins that flow and lessens the impact greatly.
RUclips won’t let us upload it all together. It gets blocked. So they are forcing me to chop it up
Do yourselves a favor then and listen to it on your own time as a whole. You'll enjoy it much more and get a better feeling of the concept and the story Waters was trying to tell.
We always do after reacting.
The Wall is 1980 so it's LATER than where you started, not earlier. This is "later" Floyd
This song is definitely the best of the non-hits from The Wall (Brick, Mother, Lust, Numb, Run, Hey You). The rest, imo, is pseudo-broadway filler that pales in comparison to their best work.
Oh,I'd still love to see a reaction to Spinning Wheel by Blood Sweat and Tears. I don't like to ask too often because I don't want to feel like I'm harassing. This is only my second time mentioning it 😁
