I'm gonna say it one more time: I truly love watching your reactions to Pink Floyd tracks! I appreciate the fact that you understand what you are listening to, and you try to make sense of the lyrics to each song...like, you KNOW there is more than just the generic meanings of the 'words' used; also, you appear to truly appreciate the music in each song, as well as the lyrics. Thank you again
@@grelch Nobody gives a crap about Waters any more....he burned his bridges with real PF fans a looooong time ago. His amazing skills (especially lyrically) were overcome by his massive ego and his increasingly bitter attitude towards the world and his bandmates. He's been dead to me since the early '80s.
@@CoolCoyote retrospectively it is, I saw an interview with Waters where he sees it as coincidence/ circumstance that is being seen as a white house reference
hmm its common sense isn't it to come to that conclusion in the current climate @@swfcocs1 but its been around since the 70's actually, rogers knew that back then.
Hey guys fun fact. I bought this album when it was released and I put it on my turn table and put it on repeat and about three weeks later a I wore out my needle and my album.😂 Loved it…
Great great reaction. Take it for somebody who watches a lot of these reactions, particularly Pink Floyd, yours are the realist. Don't ever change! 🤘✌️
"If they're not going to stir your soul, they're going to stir your brain." Dominica, that was some genius insight, IMO. If you listen to PF with other people and it does not start a discussion, then you're not really listening. God bless!
Ah, this made my day!!! Totally wrecked my plans for being productive at work today...lol. Wonderful album. My favorite in the PF catalog. I got to see this album played in its entirety in 2017 on Roger Water's Us & Them Tour. It ranks up there with all other performances I had the pleasure to watch from Gilmour, Waters, or PF. I never thought I would get to see any of the Animal's tunes played live by PF band members, but ole Roger delivered not only one tune, but the entire album continuously. Maybe someone has defined the 3 pigs mentioned in the song. If not, here's a briefing. The first pig is business elites in general(the 1% at the top). The second pig is referencing Margaret Thathcer. The third pig is Mary Whitehouse. Roger is slinging mud at UK's business/economics, political, and religious situation during the time of the album. Safe to say he didn't really hold any of them in high esteem. If you want to see a live version of this tune, I recommend Roger Water's on the Us & Them tour. The Mexico City version is unbelievable. It'll blow your socks off.
@@TheSmittenman not an expert on British politics and I'll gladly recant my statement if I'm wrong...lol. I'm thinking Thatcher was the leader of the Opposition during the time of this album?
@@rockytopted6337yes she was, Elected leader in Feb 75, and became PM in 79 after 4 disastrous years of Labour which i can still remember from my childhood
Pink Floyd are masters of conveying an image or idea with music, like the way the music in this song sounds like grunting and squealing pigs. 🐖💗 I also really love the hypnotic repetitiveness of many of their songs, it really lets my mind go places.
There’s quite a few really good pink Floyd reaction channels but you two are at the top. I LOVE your perspectives. This band has been my favorite since I first heard it at age 9, back in 1973. I never grow tired of listening to their masterpieces. Thank you so much for your genuine reactions
'we talk too much' - its why i watch your videos :) i have heard the music before but i enjoy listening to your thoughts about it. take all the time you like to talk about it, we enjoy it!
provocative and subtle but still they speak volumes in so much little time that's pf pulling you into their rabbit hole you're still falling and you don't even know it yet you had a full discussion only halfway through the song without noticing and i love it
This album, Animals is so chronically under rated, even by fans of the band. Eric Arthur Blair (George Orwell) certainly would have approved of Pink Floyd's use of his animal archetypes from his classic "Animal Farm".
My all time Pink Floyd favourite album ever!! I heard it more 100 times...! ❤ you need to react to the 2016 Roger Waters version live in Zocalo of Mexico City!! I was there...! Roger dedicates this one to Trump and Mexico President Peña Nieto...!! 😊
Yep, 5026, he has'nt wavered in his politics. Then again, why should he. It probabley keeps him "sane", thinking about the insanity of it all, ironically.
I WAS AT THIS CONCERT IN MONTREAL, 80,000+ PEOPLE, STILL TO THIS DAY THE BEST CONCERT I EVER EXPERIENCED. PREFORMED IN QUADRAPHONIC WITH INCREDIBLE STAGE PROPS. THREE HOURS OF PURE BLISS. GREAT REACTIONS… ROCK ON 👊🖖
The most British thing one can be, is complaining about the weather and totally getting Pink Floyd, it touches you, it makes you think, immerse yourself into listening to the entire albums, we enjoy seeing you two discover Pink Floyd because it is a theatrical journey in your mind.
Love this album,.but love the cover most. Because way back in 1981 i was travelling and got robbed on a train in Marseille. It took me a week of hitch hiking and hunger to get back home to London.....the first thing i recognised on the train home was Battersea Power Station which is of course on the cover....everytime i see it i feel a sense of happiness and relief!!!
After dark side of the moon this is my next favourite or is it all Floyd albums are awsome as are Rush albums it's the 70s and 80s man, they were on top of their game. Amazing just Amazing
wonderful reaction to Floyd again The first Pig is businessmen in general the second is Margaret Thatcher and the third is named as Mary Whitehouse a campaigner against profanity.
That is David Gilmore using the Hiel talk box added to the guitar sound. Joe Walsh, and Peter Frampton had both just used this on recordings as well 1976 1977 was the year of the Hiel talk box. I always loved this song, without the meaning. Just a great tune.
The 60 s and 70s saw so much anger and unsettlement due to the viet nam war. So many musicians wrote songs protesting the war and made people more aware of the bad things war brings. I spent a year in hell there and was more confused when i returned than when I went. Was a bad time and I appreciated the people that spoke out about it. The music in the70s in my opinion was the catalyst of most of what came after.
The POWER in this song. The music, I mean. Pink Floyd's lyrics are almost always powerful. But the music is so strong. Like after the first chorus ends, then the return to the the refrain -- ouch !! There is no other album like Animals. I purchased it when it first came out. Couldn't wait for the new Pink Floyd album !! Upon first listen, I was disappointed. Seemed a little empty, having too much "filler" material with the animal sounds and strung out musical interludes. But I was compelled to listen to it again. And it only took a second listen to the entire album to "hear" it. And I listened to it again and again. Nothing empty about Animals. In contrast, it is a totally full album ... full of power, musical genius, and insight. Another great reaction, you two cool people.
I'm with all the others, I reckon your reactions are the most sincere and mature that there are anywhere on the internet. I so really enjoy them. But seriously its ABOUT BLOODY TIME guys, I'd been waiting for this reaction to Pigs (Three Different Ones) forever as what I believe is the best track on the whole album, both in terms of lyrics and music. Gilmour's Outro is some of his best recorded playing ever it sends chills up my spine every time I hear it...and I've heard it alot. I also wanted to say to Andre, mate honestly, you are such a humble and great guy, it would be quite something to know you in person. Keep on the journey guys, youre both doing great. What an amazing ride you have both had.
"ANIMALS" was the album that started the end of Roger being in the band. If you listen to all of Rogers work to the present is political and anti war. "The Wall, "Final cut" then his solo work ." A master piece is "Amused to death" which would be a very long concept album . But if you like we might need to drink a cup coffee. Did you hear the " Talk Box' from "Keep Talking". to me Roger is the best lyricist. The 50 foot pink pig broke loose from the towers which a pilot flying into Heathrow Airport radio he just flew by pink pig. He was check for being drunk.
Great reaction guys, as always. It’s nice to see that you still have so much enthusiasm to hear more PF. Probably my least favourite of ‘The big 4 albums’ (Dark Side Of The Moon’ ‘Wish You Were Here’ ‘Animals’ & ‘The Wall’) Still a great album that I listen to regularly. For whatever reason I just don’t quite connect with it in the same way as the other 3. I hope you both enjoy it though, if you do listen to the whole album. ❤
As if the album got attention, that pig on the cover got loose on the photo shoot and floated across the countryside, which brought even more notoriety to PF
Great reaction as always. I find it interesting that your closing comments talking about feeling as though you were just caught up in the wheel basically describe the meaning behind "Welcome to the Machine", another Pink Floyd favorite from the 'Wish You Where Here' album.
Good one guys, it's usually Dogs or Sheep that gets played. Don't suppose you understood the 'Whitehouse' reference to the moral campaigner in the UK I think in the 70s. 'Tight lips and cold feet'... classic.
I bought the Animals LP when it was first released. I feel like it was not so widely or enthusiastically received as Dark Side and Welcome to the Machine. In fact, amongst Floyd fans, I feel like it is not as discussed as some other albums. Maybe it's because that it requires, as you noted, a more intellectual than emotional engagement. In any case, I've been enjoying this record for nearly 50 years.
Animals was inspired by George Orwell's socio-political book Animal Farm/published 1945 (estonish!!!), which we read in English class at PM time. Pigs are the rulers, the oppressed by Orwell, unlike Water, it's more the moralizers. On the 1975 tour, PM played the two albums Dark Side + Wish YWH, as well as two opening songs that became later Dogs and Sheep, released 1977, an absolutely brilliant concert program. A sad detail: If you look at the end credits of the Animals songs, you realize that something was unfortunately wrong within the group and wasn't discussed new again. The Alpha animal problem was inevitable!?! Really a shame, human???
Love this song! I love the whole album! Probably my favorite PF album, but it's so hard to pick a favorite. I love your reactions to all of Floyd's music. Keep up the good work!
I don't know if you've listened to Sheep again since your reaction, if you do listen out for the single isolated pig snort mixed in with the sheep on the outro, probably a warning that a pigs will always be there even if we win the war.
Next time you visit London, the Battersea Power Station (the one on this album cover) is now a shopping mal and there's an elevator ride up one of the chimneys. The whole massive circular glass elevator emerges out of the chimney to give a 360° view.
It saw you enjoyed Hey You, from The Wall there is quite a similar song - Mother. Also with acoustic guitar at the beginning, with powerful message and last line that is barely correctly interpreted when you hear for the first time. Can't wait when you pick it upfor next reaction!
try and catch the australian pink floyd on tour folks,the brit floyd are ok but too low/subdued.when the aussie floyd did "pigs" the ground was rumbling,me and my daughter always catch them when in liverpool.give them a go folks you won't be let down
You should check out "Won't Get Fooled Again" by the Who. So up your alley politically. And its a great tune. The new regime is the same as the old regime. From the Who lyric "Meet the new Boss, same as the old Boss".
Pigs consume. they dont listen. Pigs are consuming as they always have. You both have more insight than the pigs like. I hope and pray you can stay safe.
You like albums with a message? You can't go wrong with Pink Floyd's The Wall or equally, Queensryche's Operation Mindcrime. Both epic in their own ritghts and both tell a very compelling tale from front to back. For a stand-alone song that provokes deep thought, try Queensryche's Empire!
Saw this tour concert in Miami. The gigantic pig floating in the air was surreal. This band is special and such a great concept album. Yes, their messages are timeless! There are politicians now....I can think of one in particular in the US under trial, who should use this 'Pigs' as his theme song. But the irony would be too good to bear! Just replace 'Mary' with 'Donnie'. Perfect. (I am going to plug Genesis once again. I do not know why you have avoided them so adamantly.....maybe you only know their later music. Try anything from the '70s or from the Duke album)
“No one pretends that democracy is perfect or all-wise. Indeed, it has been said that democracy is the worst form of government except all those other forms that have been tried from time to time.” ― Winston Churchill
The pigs noises are made with a « talk box », its a guitar effect, plug into the effects chains of the guitar with a long rubber / plastic tube you put in your mouth and talk into while playing. The vibrations and talking with the effect itself produce this kind of sounds. Sorry im guitarist but not a native english speaker obviously 😅 Great reaction ♥️😊
@@girs666 As a native speaker may I say your English is fine.....as is our host's English. Dominica actually has an American accent, no? My little experience in France has taught me English is widespread, though many need coaxing to speak it. Perfection is a lofty goal. I wish I could speak French or Italian. So I am envious.
@@rk41gator thats kind :). Honeslty i think french began for few years now to speak pretty good english. Mostly because of jobs and lot of people all over the world come here and also with the internet , it became easier to learn it and totally needed for expressing or understanding Juste one point, funny point to me as an european: you see the american accent for Dominica and i personnaly immediatly see the romanian/ east european accent 😁. See what it shows from our différents locations ? Really funny and interesting :) Yeah perfection is not from this world and its ok , even better lol . Should be boring to be perfect 😉 Thanks again !! Merci beaucoup et je te souhaite une très bonne fin d’après-midi ( ici 5h26 PM/ 17h26)
@@girs666 Yes, the overall accent is Eastern European, but her inflections are American, rather than British. Odd with their having lived in England. But that may just be my 'ear'. Merci beaucoup et bon jour.

The reference to Whitehouse isn't the White House but Mary Whitehouse, a moral censorship campaigner from the 70s here in the uk

More porcine Gilmour than angry.
Gilmour plays the fretless bass, all slide guitars,, pig squeals and talk box piggy solo. Waters plays rhythm guitars
love this song, maybe the best of animals álbum
Music,lyrics and voice by Roger.Curious:David played the bass on this✌🎵
because he played bass better than Waters, whenever you hear great bass playing on PF its probably Gilmore.
Meet the new boss; same as the old boss.
wonderful reaction to Floyd again The first Pig is businessmen in general the second is Margaret Thatcher and the third is named as Mary Whitehouse a campaigner against profanity.

It's necessary 🤘
I love te way you both view things. and people are never the problem, it's our governments. EGOS
Echoes live in gdansk please good reaction
I think you both will like 'The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway'.
You should watch the Roger Waters live version in Mexico City infront of 500000 people with the Trump imagery. Insane!
i just found that video and you are correct, most insane live performance i have ever seen.

Absolutely. The Concept visionary and architect. Proof is in the work when Roger took creative control. Immortal 70's.

There are politicians now....I can think of one in particular in the US under trial, who should use this 'Pigs' as his theme song. But the irony would be too good to bear! Just replace 'Mary' with 'Donnie'. Perfect.
(I am going to plug Genesis once again. I do not know why you have avoided them so adamantly.....maybe you only know their later music. Try anything from the '70s or from the Duke album)
If you think Trump is the problem, then, YOU ARE THE PROBLEM.
“No one pretends that democracy is perfect or all-wise. Indeed, it has been said that democracy is the worst form of government except all those other forms that have been tried from time to time.”
― Winston Churchill
The pigs noises are made with a « talk box », its a guitar effect, plug into the effects chains of the guitar with a long rubber / plastic tube you put in your mouth and talk into while playing. The vibrations and talking with the effect itself produce this kind of sounds. Sorry im guitarist but not a native english speaker obviously 😅 Great reaction ♥️😊
Italian?
@@rk41gator french and italian indeed
@@girs666 As a native speaker may I say your English is fine.....as is our host's English. Dominica actually has an American accent, no?
My little experience in France has taught me English is widespread, though many need coaxing to speak it. Perfection is a lofty goal. I wish I could speak French or Italian. So I am envious.
@@rk41gator thats kind :). Honeslty i think french began for few years now to speak pretty good english. Mostly because of jobs and lot of people all over the world come here and also with the internet , it became easier to learn it and totally needed for expressing or understanding
Juste one point, funny point to me as an european: you see the american accent for Dominica and i personnaly immediatly see the romanian/ east european accent 😁. See what it shows from our différents locations ? Really funny and interesting :)
Yeah perfection is not from this world and its ok , even better lol . Should be boring to be perfect 😉
Thanks again !! Merci beaucoup et je te souhaite une très bonne fin d’après-midi ( ici 5h26 PM/ 17h26)
@@girs666 Yes, the overall accent is Eastern European, but her inflections are American, rather than British. Odd with their having lived in England. But that may just be my 'ear'. Merci beaucoup et bon jour.
Waters’ writing on Animals is easily his most cynical, and that’s saying something.
Sheep will explain alot of why change isn't happening
I wish you had reacted to the version with Roger Waters in Mexico City with all the Donald Trump images, epic
YOU MUST LISTEN TO (WISHBONE ASH). THERE'S PLENTY OF THEIR MUSIC ON (RUclips)
You dont listen to pink Floyd music. You feel pink floyd music
🤘🤘
'Mother' is a song that you must react to Them.
