Who's still listening to Floyd? I am. Forever. Modern rock cannot touch this. Gilmour? Too amazing! Richard Wright? Oh my goodness what a genius. Roger Waters, as a musician? !!! Nick Mason? Just right, all the time! Bands, great, meaningful bands, come together so rarely. The combination of talents just a mystery in the universe. Gilmour without Wright? I don't know. Wright without Gilmour? I don't know. Listen closely. Everything, everything fit! The Turning Away... what a great message?
This song helped me be strong during a very painful time. How do you go-to work everyday with a smile with such enormous pain on the inside,! Every time this song played I would be given love strength hope and energy WOW! Got me though five years! Thank You Gentlemen WOW! AKA HatPolice from Michigan
@@NiteGambler I am 64 and have been a Pink Floyd fan since my college days starting in the Fall of ‘75. David Gilmour guitar solos are shear works of art! I wish they would never end.
@@billstrong8641 43 here. I could listen to Gilmour as I drift from this world. I've loved the Floyd most of my life but the older I get, the more transportive they become; every note a nuance, every chord a new dream.
Youve lived during the making of the most celebrated music in history. Im 24 i wish i was born in those days aswell its so corrupt this day in age and everything going on i wish peace and a long happy life for all
There are many bands and many styles of music, but then there's Pink Floyd. This is music from another planet. This music will still be heard 10,000 years from now. This music is timeless and unmatched. I bow to Pink Floyd.
david gilmour is the ONLY guitarist i’ve EVER heard who never once shows off!!! every single other guitarist i’ve seen footage of playing live just can’t help themselves at least once, but david gilmour is the only one who remains completely egoless, and reserves absolutely none of the spotlight for himself, but just gives it all to the music. every other guitarist up on a stage feels like they are the ones to be worshipped, but gilmour is the only one who feels like he is just inviting you to worship the universe alongside him. this is why no other guitarist for me will ever overtake him as my personal favourite.
For years I used to think why on Earth this song was not a part of P.U.L.S.E. Live, but now I see; when you get a masterpiece like that you don't try the odds. Let people always remember this song like this and I'm sure they always will.
So, who’s here in 2022 and still being blown away by this absolute masterpiece of music? Update March 2023 - Wow. I am blown away by call the comments, and to see how many people come here to listen to this, masterpiece. I thought this would be a good moment to explain why this means so much to me. I lost my dad to cancer in 2013, and he was a huge Pink Floyd fan, but I didn’t like Floyd when he was alive, too stuck in my metal ways. When he passed away, I looked through his record collection so I could have him close to me, and I discovered bands that blew my mind, like Pink Floyd. One day last year this song came on whilst I was taking my mother shopping, and she started to cry because this song was one of their favourites, it was a heartbreaking and beautiful moment. To this day I wish I could go back and talk to my old man about bands, especially Pink Floyd, his experiences hearing from the first time and seeing them live, I really wish I could have that moment with him. Thanks for reading, and keep loving this masterpiece my parents love so much. Miss you old man x
August 2024, and this masterpiece still rocks. A befitting tribute to Pink Floyd and all the Pink avid fans, it's been such an epic journey, keep safe. I love you all !❤❤
Listen Pink Floyd regularly since 1974 - it never gets old and it has become modern classical music that will never die. The fine filtre of time has already done its work. Similar to Picasso and other famous artists there is point in time when "discussion" ends and the value is determined forever.
The funny thing about David Gilmour’s guitar solos is I never want them to end. He could play for 30 minutes straight and I’d still be bummed when I heard him and the guys wrapping it up. I want him to keep building, higher and higher, soaring into the clouds and beyond, playing forever and ever...
Thing about david gilmour is he isent just playing the guitar if you see his face expressions he his pouring out his heart abd soul through his guitar playing so you actully feel what his saying if thats makes sence thats why his the best in the world
Sir Gilmour's song is about life and Sir Water is about politics. What a complete band, they are really great and there will be no replacement in the future I think
Beatles may have sold the most records and be lyric-wise the best band, but my honest opinion is that musically, Pink Floyd is the greatest rock band of all time
I am 77 years and still love this song. David Gilmour, Richard Wright, and Nick Mason, made this band continue to even greater heights. Gilmours solo guitar playing is outstanding perfection!🎸🎼🎹🎼🥁🎼
It's like his voice was specifically created to match with the music he makes. It fits with the dreamy, smooth and ethereal vibes so perfectly. It just wouldn't work if he sounded like Tom Waits or something.
I can’t stop watching this like every single day at least once. Pink Floyd is like magic that I crave! Mesmerizing every single time. They are so special to me, it would take me hours to explain the ways. They have saved my life when I was at my lowest and I owe a lot to this spectacular band of genius. Any body else out there feel me on this? It’s so inexplicable to me, cause I just don’t have the words to place how they make me feel. Especially the soaring guitar, I am admittedly in LOVE with the amazingly talented David Gilmour 💚
Una delle tantissime splendide canzoni dei mitici grandissimi Pink Floyd guidati da David Gilmour grandissimo chitarrista affiancato da Richard Wright all'organo da Nick Mason alle percussioni e da Roger Waters al basso senza dimenticare syd barret avete donato al vostro pubblico canzoni stupende che resteranno per sempre nella leggendaria storia della musica rock visti live a Roma per due volte molti di noi spettatori avevamo lelacrime agli occhi grazie tantissimo per le bellissime emozioni che ci avete donato con le vostre splendide canzoni thank you so much you are wonderful Number One
I worked the evening shift at Montgomery Ward after my other nine to five job way back. I sold home theatre equipment. This entire concert was played on laser disc on the latest hifi components of the time on a constant loop. I never got sick of it.
After being born with 2 ears, a brain, a mouth and what my colleagues claim “a soul” along with a masters and doctorates degree in Epistemology, I can indeed remove the the use of the words “one of” and officially declare the objective truth (to the most knowable and agreeable belief of what is “truth”) that David Gilmour is in fact, the greatest musician/composer/guitarist of all time. We are still doing conformational studies at the university, but we believe he will end in the top 100 human beings of all time.
When I was in rehab trying to get my life back from the crumbles it became this song brought me to tears as I started to confront the wreckage I brought to my life but also the wreckage I brought to the people around me. My marriage had fallen apart. My family wanted nothing to do with me. I was alone and afraid. I hadn't shown or felt emotion in so long I felt like a fraud and a shell of a man. This song helped to break me down while also giving me hope. Id like to say that was the only time I was in rehab but it took a few more years and a huge check to my ego and today I live a life I never dreamed possible. I have the love and respect of my family a career I love. To anyone feeling alone and afraid or stuck balls deep in a rabid addiction just know there is always hope. I know it doesn't feel like it but pray for the strength to endure. I prayed for death. Heroin is a hell of a drug. I don't know you, but I love you with all of my heart. Pray for guidance pray for humility and you will find the strength. No more turning away.
Damn brother that hit hard. Been struggling with depression for awhile and only now am I understanding the pain many others go through on a daily basis and why the suicide rate among young men like myself is so high. It’s because of how alone the world makes you feel. All it takes is a little bit of empathy from someone else to lift you out of that dark place. But that’s too much to ask of the world. Not for me. No more turning away.
KITdaBerserker, Thank you for your testimony and I'm so glad you got your life back!! Your story will be a tremendous blessing to many who read it. I'm not an addict, but it still moved me. Kindness goes a long way in this world, and unfortunately people today have forgotten their fellow man. Again, I wish you all happiness and joy with your life my friend.
My adult life between 18 and 35 or so revolved around Heroin. Not just me, but my mother, my friends, everyone. What chance did I have? You don't get out of a situation like that with another addiction. Find that new addiction, whether it be making yourself as healthy as possible, working a job you care about, throw yourself into your family. Religion. It doesn't matter, long as you find it. Whatever it takes.
I'm 64 and first fell in love with the sounds of Pink Floyd in 1973. To this day... THIS SONG brings tears to my eyes The lyrics changed me 50 years ago and I never looked down upon a homeless person or a person in need throughout my life and I offer what I can. Floyd's legacy live on in so many Floyd fans both in their 70's and now new young generations are falling in love with the lyrics and sounds of Floyd, and David Gilmour carrying it onward. May Syd finally be at peace and he and Richard playing in eternal life.
My husband and I both worked with disenfranchised populations. This song is the anthem for those who have little or no voice in the realm of our reality. It brings me to tears, every time.
I think for voting economical knowledge and how country as a institution is functioning is mandatory. Many dont know about that and vote for wrong people thats catastrophy.
I love Britain. Went to visit London back in 2017 and Pink Floyd had a huge impact on it. Their music has always drawn me in and I just had to visit their country. This American will always love Pink Floyd
I was going through the radio stations on the way to Orlando, Fla. I came across Pink Floyds the “Wall” & thought I’d never heard music that incredible. I instantly became a fan of the Floyd. That was in the ‘70s. I am 73 yrs. now and still love their music. 🩵
When the backing singer goes high.. sends shivers.. This is a Masterpiece. There's Guitarist out there like Hendrix, Young etc classed as great guitarists but which i never understood why but when you hear Gilmour play solo's. He tells a story you can all relate to. He puts you in the moment. Is there a better performance then this from any other guitarist... I think not!!!
Same here! She NAILED that high A. Then David matches it SEAMLESSLY and carries the note as she fades out.. I listened in awe several times to that note hand-off.
On the turning away From the pale and downtrodden And the words they say Which we won't understand Don't accept that what's happening Is just a case of others' suffering Or you'll find that you're joining in The turning away It's a sin that somehow Light is changing to shadow And casting its shroud Over all we have known Unaware how the ranks have grown Driven on by a heart of stone We could find that we're all alone In the dream of the proud On the wings of the night As the daytime is stirring Where the speechless unite in a silent accord Using words, you will find, are strange Mesmerised as they light the flame Feel the new wind of change On the wings of the night No more turning away From the weak and the weary No more turning away From the coldness inside Just a world that we all must share It's not enough just to stand and stare Is it only a dream that there'll be No more turning away?
There isn't a band out there that can top Pink Floyd..been to many concerts..simly the best..I am 71..when I die everyone will hear their music that I Love!!❤❤❤
Same here, Bill First got turned on to them (Umma Gumma) by friends listening to the "space-rock" (FM radio stations had to come up with a name for this genre) 😄 DSotM turned 51 this past March, and Wish You Were Here will be 50 next September ... still have all their work on vinyl (and cassette, and CD) ...
Same here. I like the singers from the Pulse album but my favorite lineup is Margaret Taylor, Durga McBroom, and Rachel Fury. Wish I could have seen them live.
@@plantdesigns7889 I saw them from the nosebleeds in Cleveland. The camera should be on that little singer half the time. And Dave the rest, of course!
I graduated in 1977 with engineering and physics degrees. My education was brutal at all levels. My career a blessing. This music got me through it all. God bless everyone that loves Pink Floyd. I can assure you it helped me through.
Huge respect for you Michael. I was a gas turbine engineer at RR. And physics is my favourite subject. Not that I understand all the complex mathematics and equations. But I love cosmology almost as much as I adore pink Floyd.
I started engineering in the fall of 1985, I was 18 years old, and when I asked about the dormitory of the polytechnic, I was told "the one from which you will hear Pink Floyd". Here I am at 55, already a grandfather, still listening to their songs.
I swear I could listen to a 4 hour version of this solo. Especially with the backup vocals, damn that really elevates it. I sure as hell know my funeral song for sure
Kerry Evans.I am 62 And am the biggest fan. I just lost my husband yesterday of 28 years and my Floyd is my solace, and my comfort. Every word every cord, every drum beat, my solace. I saw them in 1994. I cried the whole time. All 6 hours!!!!! I am forever a Floydian. I will die with my dark side of the moon album on my chest. Album. I cry for me my husband and our life listening to and NEVER getting tired of the genius that is Pink......David Gilmour.
Wow so sorry to hear of your loss and it’s incredible that you can write such a piece at this time. I’m 77 and lost my wife 4 years ago so I know the pain. David Gilmour has been my favourite musician for over half of my life, and song always gives me a buzz!
@@raygraham9888 I have A LOT of memories with this man. And Pink Floyd concert one of them. Actually the best one!!!! I will never get over him. He was my life. 😭💔
Saw them in Houston in 1986 or 87 at the Astrodome Momentary Lapse of Reason Tour. Great Light Show. 1000 points of Light. Before 2001 a Space Odyssey, There were the original Light Benders! Rock on Pink Floyd
This great song is playing in my brain every day. If only people could hear it! Maybe the world has become a better place, people are kinder and life would become easier. Oleg, 1963, St Petersburg , 14.04.2024 ❤
Excellent point. I vividly remember listening to PK Dark Side of the Moon in my car, on my cassette player, thru my Jensen speakers in 1977. BTW, the car was a 1965 Chevelle 2 door station wagon. No A/C.
One of the best vocals , solo, orchestration , drums i ve ever heard in my Life …. I was in Versailles for their concert in 1988 when i was 13 … it s changed my Life for ever
I was born in 1995, I discovered pink floyd from my father, who is a huge fan. David Gilmour is a gift from nature, from a world nobody knows except him. He is a personification of Jesus, a man who can change your life in better through music. He speaks about love and pain through his music, teaching you that in life you have to love and stay in armony with the great gift of life given by God, even though sometimes life can stress you. Stay safe brothers and keep listening to real music.
I believe good music can change your mind for the better, I suffer from anxiety, and I have a couple of songs that help me through panic attacks... Now I'm doing better, but Ventura Highway saved me many times... That song has a nice guitar and the part of the lizard is... Haha 😆😆
I've been listening to the floyd for 50yrs and this is one of the most emotive songs they have ever done. Dont turn your back on people less fortunate than you, ever ! You could be that person one day. You don't know whats around the corner.

I've been to 10shows since 1972 and it doesn't get any better than this. I've been listening to David gilmore since the first time I saw then in Seattle. Will always be a fan
DAVID GILMOUR deserves a Special Award, and an Award in his Name for future Honorees, for his Lifetime Devotion and Respect he's given to the WORLD with his Music. A 24k Statue of David playing his Strat. would be grand. Presented on his 75th Birthday!! He is Loved by Millions and Influenced Countless Musicians. A 2 hr. Televised Show from the start of his Career including previous live Interviews, Taped Studio Recordings, Live Performance's, Clips of Traveling on the Road and Flying from City to different Countries, Awards He's Received, His family he Worked so hard to Support and everything in between!
Such an underrated masterpiece. When most people think “Pink Floyd”, this is far from their mind. I play guitar and I can’t play this solo without shedding tears. Gilmour plugs his guitar into my soul.
@@ericmassie5306 his playing amazes my soul! he's one of a handful that have literally awoken my soul to new experiences, with his passionate and amazing sounds!
Every musician and vocalist gave everything they had and more in this masterclass performance. Nick and Richard's passion for excellence is unique, as is Dave Gilmours. RIP Richard and Syd 😢❤
I once thought that a combination of backup singers and instrument playing could never make me cry. Yet here I am, once again, in tears listening to David Gilmour magic, incredible backup singers and the rest of the band complementing them perfectly. This music is sonically beautiful. Incredible composition. An absolute masterpiece
With everything going on in the world right now..and being told to stay at home unless absolutely necessary...I have drowned myself in music...this song gives me such a freaking high and I cannot get enough of that guitar solo...one of the best EVER
Think about how many people are in the band at that time and gel to make a PERFECT sound with David Gilmore's lead and vocals taking you down that road! Unbelievable always!
dude just listen to comfortably numb, then your spine would freaking burst into a million pieces. And then listen to every freaking album from echoes to the last record waters released in 2017. Yes, waters is still the soul of Pink floyd
My mum first heard this in her late eighty's...wanted it played at her funeral. She died aged 91. I am pleased to say the Church was big, high, old and a P A from the gods :-)
Sorry for your lost. My wife died in august 2020. It was her favorite tune und we play it the end of the funeral service. It was amazing to hear this epic masterpiece. Thank you David for playing this. I love it all day.
Mr Gilmour and Floyd remind us beautifully how human we all are..in an often dark and confusing world. Such truth about our existence, when I hear this I close my eyes and reflect on us all and our lives..we sometimes just can't do it by ourselves so I thank you Pink Floyd and David Gilmour for your eternal message. N.A
His soloing is just out of this world.. He can sing, he can tell a story, he can take us on a journey in the wonderland of melody. Thanks for this quality upload, amazing version!
❤️I love Pink Floyd, I saw them 7 nights in a row in Melbourne Australia 1988❤️This album is happening in reality right now❤️Shine on you crazy diamonds 💎❤️🙏🌟🔑🦋🪃🇦🇺😂
This music is the soundtrack to my youth! I grew up with this music. It doesn't matter what the younger generation thinks. No one can take this creativity from us and there will never be this kind of music ever again because it was real, honest and from the soul! All our musical contemporaries are gone now. Just know that when you hear them on the radio they helped pave the way for every other type of music that followed. But the youth doesn't care. I miss those days of my youth.
"On The Turning Away" On the turning away From the pale and downtrodden And the words they say Which we won't understand "Don't accept that what's happening Is just a case of others' suffering Or you'll find that you're joining in The turning away" It's a sin that somehow Light is changing to shadow And casting its shroud Over all we have known Unaware how the ranks have grown Driven on by a heart of stone We could find that we're all alone In the dream of the proud On the wings of the night As the daytime is stirring Where the speechless unite In a silent accord Using words you will find are strange Mesmerized as they light the flame Feel the new wind of change On the wings of the night No more turning away From the weak and the weary No more turning away From the coldness inside Just a world that we all must share It's not enough just to stand and stare Is it only a dream that there'll be No more turning away?

I've been listening to them since 1975. I'll never stop.
Everyone knows David is a legendary guitarist, but his voice has this smooth, dusty, atmospheric quality that I think is just as beautiful.
This is the pure truth!
It was almost like he was born for his brand. Everything from the musical score to the vocals is perfect
It's like his voice was specifically created to match with the music he makes. It fits with the dreamy, smooth and ethereal vibes so perfectly. It just wouldn't work if he sounded like Tom Waits or something.

Especially the soaring guitar, I am admittedly in LOVE with the amazingly talented David Gilmour 💚
Wow 8:20 folks, this man is a magician 🎩
🙋
Lovely comment 😊. Thats how I feel about, Genesis. Its pretty amazing, how a band of musicians, can make such an impact on our lives.
@@oceanview2965 this is SO true, music is my magical healer 🤍
🤘Same
Who is still Listening to this True Masterpiece in 2021?👍👋🎶💯
Me ! Best band ever 😉
me and playing to it!
Me, and I wont stop to.
Well..... of course
Meeeee 🙋🏻♀️ 💯 🤘🏻
ho 74 anni...ne avevo 37 quando sentii il brano per la prima volta...fu un istante di magia che mi afferro rapendomi per sempre.....
Io ho 77 ascolto questa musica dei P.F . tutte le sere ciao dall'Australia.
Hola tengo un año menos que usted ,la escuche después de todo ese tiempo
Damn. Amazing. Gilmore to perfection. Sounds better than the studio recording. No fans holding cell phones. What a time to be alive 💯
Enormes
ooh yes those shitty phones
You do know that this was recorded a time before people actually had cell phones
If you were a David Gilmour fan,you would know his surname isn't spelt Gilmore.
Absolutely
The guitar solo penetrates the hardest skin, to reach the deepest corner of the soul.
Una delle tantissime splendide canzoni dei mitici grandissimi Pink Floyd guidati da David Gilmour grandissimo chitarrista affiancato da Richard Wright all'organo da Nick Mason alle percussioni e da Roger Waters al basso senza dimenticare syd barret avete donato al vostro pubblico canzoni stupende che resteranno per sempre nella leggendaria storia della musica rock visti live a Roma per due volte molti di noi spettatori avevamo lelacrime agli occhi grazie tantissimo per le bellissime emozioni che ci avete donato con le vostre splendide canzoni thank you so much you are wonderful Number One
Beautifully said
I just can't get enough of this masterpiece. I hear a thunder of applause when Gilmour's guitar kicks in. Great solo. Such talent on stage.
I worked the evening shift at Montgomery Ward after my other nine to five job way back. I sold home theatre equipment. This entire concert was played on laser disc on the latest hifi components of the time on a constant loop. I never got sick of it.
I have followed him for over 40years still love his music
David Gilmour is one of the greatest musicians of all time.
Yep
Yes👏👏👏🤩
his guitar solo is EPIC!!!!!
Absolutely in one of the greatest bands ever.
After being born with 2 ears, a brain, a mouth and what my colleagues claim “a soul” along with a masters and doctorates degree in Epistemology, I can indeed remove the the use of the words “one of” and officially declare the objective truth (to the most knowable and agreeable belief of what is “truth”) that David Gilmour is in fact, the greatest musician/composer/guitarist of all time. We are still doing conformational studies at the university, but we believe he will end in the top 100 human beings of all time.
When I was in rehab trying to get my life back from the crumbles it became this song brought me to tears as I started to confront the wreckage I brought to my life but also the wreckage I brought to the people around me. My marriage had fallen apart. My family wanted nothing to do with me. I was alone and afraid. I hadn't shown or felt emotion in so long I felt like a fraud and a shell of a man. This song helped to break me down while also giving me hope. Id like to say that was the only time I was in rehab but it took a few more years and a huge check to my ego and today I live a life I never dreamed possible. I have the love and respect of my family a career I love. To anyone feeling alone and afraid or stuck balls deep in a rabid addiction just know there is always hope. I know it doesn't feel like it but pray for the strength to endure. I prayed for death. Heroin is a hell of a drug. I don't know you, but I love you with all of my heart. Pray for guidance pray for humility and you will find the strength. No more turning away.
Damn brother that hit hard. Been struggling with depression for awhile and only now am I understanding the pain many others go through on a daily basis and why the suicide rate among young men like myself is so high. It’s because of how alone the world makes you feel. All it takes is a little bit of empathy from someone else to lift you out of that dark place. But that’s too much to ask of the world. Not for me. No more turning away.
This moved me.
@@dianehermann8330 thank you. Much love.
KITdaBerserker, Thank you for your testimony and I'm so glad you got your life back!! Your story will be a tremendous blessing to many who read it. I'm not an addict, but it still moved me. Kindness goes a long way in this world, and unfortunately people today have forgotten their fellow man. Again, I wish you all happiness and joy with your life my friend.
My adult life between 18 and 35 or so revolved around Heroin. Not just me, but my mother, my friends, everyone. What chance did I have?
You don't get out of a situation like that with another addiction. Find that new addiction, whether it be making yourself as healthy as possible, working a job you care about, throw yourself into your family. Religion. It doesn't matter, long as you find it. Whatever it takes.
This is a timeless song! I’m 50 and have been listening to it since . Love Pink Floyd!
I'm 64 and first fell in love with the sounds of Pink Floyd in 1973.
To this day... THIS SONG brings tears to my eyes
The lyrics changed me 50 years ago and I never looked down upon a homeless person or a person in need throughout my life and I offer what I can.
Floyd's legacy live on in so many Floyd fans both in their 70's and now new young generations are falling in love with the lyrics and sounds of Floyd, and David Gilmour carrying it onward.
May Syd finally be at peace and he and Richard playing in eternal life.
I appreciate the sentiment, but this song came out in 1987, so the timeline is a little bit off. The lyrics changed you 36 years ago 😊
Me too and 72 here,
My husband and I both worked with disenfranchised populations. This song is the anthem for those who have little or no voice in the realm of our reality. It brings me to tears, every time.
Free Palestine 🌷
Me too, right to the heart.
u also have no voice wtf disfranchised
I think for voting economical knowledge and how country as a institution is functioning is mandatory. Many dont know about that and vote for wrong people thats catastrophy.
@@ahmadjoblo5338 Not quite the same thing.
In Britain 2023 its hard to say what makes me happy to be British.... But my god Pink Floyd fills me with pride
I love Britain. Went to visit London back in 2017 and Pink Floyd had a huge impact on it. Their music has always drawn me in and I just had to visit their country. This American will always love Pink Floyd
for some reason, Britain bred inexplicable amount of geniuses . especially in music, but in all art forms...be proud :)
Que envidia saludos desde chile .....
Certainly not the new dog laws.
You are rightfully proud, mate. Led Zeppelin and Pink Floyd.
I am, and I’m 70. Pink Floyd never gets old
I was going through the radio stations on the way to Orlando, Fla. I came across Pink Floyds the “Wall” & thought I’d never heard music that incredible. I instantly became a fan of the Floyd. That was in the ‘70s. I am 73 yrs. now and still love their music. 🩵
I never want this song to end. I think it’s magic and I can feel it deep in my soul! Thank you, PF!
When the backing singer goes high.. sends shivers.. This is a Masterpiece. There's Guitarist out there like Hendrix, Young etc classed as great guitarists but which i never understood why but when you hear Gilmour play solo's. He tells a story you can all relate to. He puts you in the moment. Is there a better performance then this from any other guitarist... I think not!!!
I prefer these backing singers to the ones in the Pulse tour. Great voices, but the dance moves of the Pulse singers are OTT and distracting.
those same singers absolutely nailed Great Gig in the Sky on this tour as well
Spellbinding
He'll yeh l agree 👍 👌 💯 👏 😉 they and the loudest one she's excellent
Same here! She NAILED that high A.
Then David matches it SEAMLESSLY and carries the note as she fades out.. I listened in awe several times to that note hand-off.
It was a powerful and timely message in 1989, and an even more powerful and timely message today…thank you Pink Floyd!
On the turning away
From the pale and downtrodden
And the words they say
Which we won't understand
Don't accept that what's happening
Is just a case of others' suffering
Or you'll find that you're joining in
The turning away
It's a sin that somehow
Light is changing to shadow
And casting its shroud
Over all we have known
Unaware how the ranks have grown
Driven on by a heart of stone
We could find that we're all alone
In the dream of the proud
On the wings of the night
As the daytime is stirring
Where the speechless unite in a silent accord
Using words, you will find, are strange
Mesmerised as they light the flame
Feel the new wind of change
On the wings of the night
No more turning away
From the weak and the weary
No more turning away
From the coldness inside
Just a world that we all must share
It's not enough just to stand and stare
Is it only a dream that there'll be
No more turning away?
tnx
There isn't a band out there that can top Pink Floyd..been to many concerts..simly the best..I am 71..when I die everyone will hear their music that I Love!!❤❤❤
I am Bill from North East Texas USA and I have been listening to Pink Floyd for over 50 years
Same here, Bill First got turned on to them (Umma Gumma) by friends listening to the "space-rock" (FM radio stations had to come up with a name for this genre) 😄 DSotM turned 51 this past March, and Wish You Were Here will be 50 next September ... still have all their work on vinyl (and cassette, and CD) ...
I'm bill from cocoa beach nice to meet you Sir
@@billhufford7209 how are you doing Bill
Great, another beautiful day in this world.
Congratulations from Spain. I am frente, 73 in November
RIP Rick , thank you David , it does not get any better .
7:40...Margret Taylor belts out that high note gives me goose bumps....This song will never get old..NEVER
Same here. I like the singers from the Pulse album but my favorite lineup is Margaret Taylor, Durga McBroom, and Rachel Fury. Wish I could have seen them live.
Came here to find this. Not disappointed.
I wish they would have added that to the studio version, as well as the way it ended instead of letting it trail off
@@plantdesigns7889 I saw them from the nosebleeds in Cleveland. The camera should be on that little singer half the time. And Dave the rest, of course!
@@plantdesigns7889 Thank you for answering my question.
I graduated in 1977 with engineering and physics degrees. My education was brutal at all levels. My career a blessing. This music got me through it all. God bless everyone that loves Pink Floyd. I can assure you it helped me through.
If transcending so much time doesn't distinguish good music from the truly great music, I don't know what does.
Huge respect for you Michael. I was a gas turbine engineer at RR. And physics is my favourite subject. Not that I understand all the complex mathematics and equations. But I love cosmology almost as much as I adore pink Floyd.
I started engineering in the fall of 1985, I was 18 years old, and when I asked about the dormitory of the polytechnic, I was told "the one from which you will hear Pink Floyd". Here I am at 55, already a grandfather, still listening to their songs.
I swear I could listen to a 4 hour version of this solo. Especially with the backup vocals, damn that really elevates it. I sure as hell know my funeral song for sure
You know I feel this way too. Just love this song.And I saw them back when Gilmour started to lead..
So true what you wrote and still it makes me a bit emotional . He is there very handsome David Gilmore
I'll be coming if you're playing this song.
@@dannycrow1096 me too. I hope they have snacks.
@@nancybez lol🤣
Heard Pink Floyd all my life, now almost 52 years old. Saw them live in Oslo 1994 and London 2005. This is one of many favourites.
You are a happy man, oh, how I envy you!
25 years on, and it only gets better. A masterpiece, and one of the best solos David Gilmour ever composed.
I agree, it's my personal favorite.
Absolutely nice and wonderful, what a great Gitarrist.
This and comfortably numb are the two best of all time. This solo is so underrated.
I don’t think David Gilmour wrote it I may be wrong
@@ianwhitfield8169 He co-wrote it with Anthony Moore.
Kerry Evans.I am 62 And am the biggest fan. I just lost my husband yesterday of 28 years and my Floyd is my solace, and my comfort. Every word every cord, every drum beat, my solace. I saw them in 1994. I cried the whole time. All 6 hours!!!!!
I am forever a Floydian. I will die with my dark side of the moon album on my chest. Album. I cry for me my husband and our life listening to and NEVER getting tired of the genius that is Pink......David Gilmour.
Wow so sorry to hear of your loss and it’s incredible that you can write such a piece at this time. I’m 77 and lost my wife 4 years ago so I know the pain. David Gilmour has been my favourite musician for over half of my life, and song always gives me a buzz!
@@raygraham9888 I have A LOT of memories with this man. And Pink Floyd concert one of them. Actually the best one!!!! I will never get over him. He was my life. 😭💔
Saw them in Houston in 1986 or 87 at the Astrodome Momentary Lapse of Reason Tour. Great Light Show. 1000 points of Light. Before 2001 a Space Odyssey, There were the original Light Benders! Rock on Pink Floyd
This great song is playing in my brain every day. If only people could hear it! Maybe the world has become a better place, people are kinder and life would become easier. Oleg, 1963, St Petersburg , 14.04.2024 ❤
I'm 58 y.o. from Russia, Pink Floyd is the best!!!❤
Fully agree with you. Pink Floyd is the best.
Hello from Australia 👍
Hello from Tallahassee, Florida
Hello from Split, Croatia
58 z Česka taky tak
This is David Gilmour at his very best- so emotional, so powerful delivered with such raw emotion - this song touches my heart to its very core.
I wonder how many people have passed on listening to Pink Floyd grateful they get to experience such beautiful music.
Excellent point. I vividly remember listening to PK Dark Side of the Moon in my car, on my cassette player, thru my Jensen speakers in 1977.
BTW, the car was a 1965 Chevelle 2 door station wagon. No A/C.
Tens of thousands,nice comment, don’t let people put you off.
2022 and i am still listening to this it rings true to what is happening in the world today
They will not turn away.!!!👍😁🎶🎶⚕♾☯️⚛☪️✡♂️♀️☮🌬⛰🌊🔥💚💜💙❄⛈🌧
Me too…

This will never not be true.
A prayer tonight especially for refugees....
I'm 62 and Pink Floyd is one of my favorite bands of all time.
Me too, i'm 62 years old too and i start liking Pink Floyd since i was 15 years old..
Spot on, Scott...at 62 now, I must add...Pink Floyd were ahead of the times in their heydays..
@chollygascon3681 Wow....identical happening with me!❤❤❤
@@chollygascon3681Where are you from, Cholly? I'm from India.❤
This band nailed reality and truth years before anyone else did, TY TY, I am a 65 yr old woman and you have always touched my soul!!
I turn on You Tube at night, & listen to this Concert all the time. Helps Me sleep. I was thrilled to see Them
Me also. David was Brilliant. He is such a Humble sweet Man. Love Him.
One of the best vocals , solo, orchestration , drums i ve ever heard in my Life …. I was in Versailles for their concert in 1988 when i was 13 … it s changed my Life for ever
The backup singer at 7:40 breaks me every time, such a great addition to the song. So beautiful
I was born in 1995, I discovered pink floyd from my father, who is a huge fan. David Gilmour is a gift from nature, from a world nobody knows except him. He is a personification of Jesus, a man who can change your life in better through music. He speaks about love and pain through his music, teaching you that in life you have to love and stay in armony with the great gift of life given by God, even though sometimes life can stress you.
Stay safe brothers and keep listening to real music.
Dont know about this jesus fellow gilmour's guitar is magic and unequaled
I believe good music can change your mind for the better, I suffer from anxiety, and I have a couple of songs that help me through panic attacks... Now I'm doing better, but Ventura Highway saved me many times... That song has a nice guitar and the part of the lizard is... Haha 😆😆
This and comfortably numb are my two favorite Gilmour solos. Freaking awesome. And those back up singers...
Listen to David Gilmour, On an island.
@@gurra63able yeah that's a good one. The slide guitar on High Hopes is another favorite.
Definitely!!!!
Those are 2 of my 3 favourite guitar solos ever. The third is Gilmour on Dogs.
Can literally listen to both songs on repeat allday
Pink Floyd is the best rock band of all times ever.
I agree ❤❤❤
Sure
PF is imortality
Indeed
Honestly one of Gilmour's most powerful solo versions of this amazing track. Leaves me nearly in tears every time.
Agree🤘
So.much feeling in the solo lyrics are great. Their best song
It's not solo though its
just doesn't include waters
By far the most moving, beautiful guitar solo I've ever heard.
I agree. Gilmour is an incredibly talented musician, but this soulful performance is my favorite of all Floyd songs/solos.
I've been listening to the floyd for 50yrs and this is one of the most emotive songs they have ever done.
Dont turn your back on people less fortunate than you, ever !
You could be that person one day.
You don't know whats around the corner.

I've been to 10shows since 1972 and it doesn't get any better than this. I've been listening to David gilmore since the first time I saw then in Seattle. Will always be a fan
David Gilmore is the best thing that has ever happened to music!♥️♥️🙏
Yes! Yes! Yes! There is no doubt about that! Bless David Gilmore! May he lives for ever!
DAVID GILMOUR deserves a Special Award, and an Award in his Name for future Honorees, for his Lifetime Devotion and Respect he's given to the WORLD with his Music. A 24k Statue of David playing his Strat. would be grand. Presented on his 75th Birthday!! He is Loved by Millions and Influenced Countless Musicians. A 2 hr. Televised Show from the start of his Career including previous live Interviews, Taped Studio Recordings, Live Performance's, Clips of Traveling on the Road and Flying from City to different Countries, Awards He's Received, His family he Worked so hard to Support and everything in between!

As much as I love his guitar that's a bit of a stretch. Go listen to Nick Cave
Imagine being one of the 722 dislikers. What a miserable life they must have.
Perhaps they didn't like this version of it? I didn't think it added anything to the original. Some songs get better and some do not.

Sad
Roger Waters, 722 times….
There can never be another song as beautiful as this composition and music as well, Specially DG's guitar Solo is beautifully composed and played.
Such an underrated masterpiece. When most people think “Pink Floyd”, this is far from their mind. I play guitar and I can’t play this solo without shedding tears. Gilmour plugs his guitar into my soul.
@@ericmassie5306 his playing amazes my soul! he's one of a handful that have literally awoken my soul to new experiences, with his passionate and amazing sounds!

You Are Right. It is a masterpiece.
This is the best guitar solo ever made. So much emotions in a few minutes of guitar magic. Its amazing!
Every musician and vocalist gave everything they had and more in this masterclass performance. Nick and Richard's passion for excellence is unique, as is Dave Gilmours. RIP Richard and Syd 😢❤
David has more soul in one chord than most musicians have in an entire song.
@@nelsonclub7722 includes the now “woke liberal” Waters.
One Note Even.

Great Guy !!
I once thought that a combination of backup singers and instrument playing could never make me cry. Yet here I am, once again, in tears listening to David Gilmour magic, incredible backup singers and the rest of the band complementing them perfectly.
This music is sonically beautiful. Incredible composition. An absolute masterpiece
With everything going on in the world right now..and being told to stay at home unless absolutely necessary...I have drowned myself in music...this song gives me such a freaking high and I cannot get enough of that guitar solo...one of the best EVER
The same here. In Argentina. City of Avellaneda
Think about how many people are in the band at that time and gel to make a PERFECT sound with David Gilmore's lead and vocals taking you down that road! Unbelievable always!
It will maybe strange to believe but I thinck that music, this musique as far as I'm deeply concerned, can littérali save a life.
Dont ask who is listening in whatever year, nobody stops listening so enjoy that
❤❤❤
Who’s listening in this year
I’d never noticed the female singer go up high before. I just got kick ass chills!! Pink Floyd NEVER cease to amaze!!
Still listening to this masterpiece in Nov 2022 and forever
same!! So beautiful
Get in line! 😀
Forever does not exist my friend. But we know what you are trying to articulate.
This will be always massive one 😹
Hell yeah borther
The whole song is so powerful and then the guitar solo just makes my fricken spine tingle
Tbhg
I completely 💯 agree. I always prefer this version to the studio.
dude just listen to comfortably numb, then your spine would freaking burst into a million pieces. And then listen to every freaking album from echoes to the last record waters released in 2017. Yes, waters is still the soul of Pink floyd
@@trisv1974 trust me I have lol
Majestic. Some songs cannot be catelogued. This song could go on forever and I would not complain.
Rest In Peace, Rick Wright! He was a great band member.
A big loss to the music community
My mum first heard this in her late eighty's...wanted it played at her funeral. She died aged 91. I am pleased to say the Church was big, high, old and a P A from the gods :-)
Sorry for your lost. My wife died in august 2020. It was her favorite tune und we play it the end of the funeral service. It was amazing to hear this epic masterpiece. Thank you David for playing this. I love it all day.
Im sorry for your losses, what a beautiful song to memorialize someone “on the wings of the night”
Out of all the billions of solar systems and infinite timelines, to experience Pink Floyd, damn we are blessed.
Tears,astonishment,awe, sadness,euphoria,enlightenment…this ANTHEM covers all emotions….
IT IS TRULY EPIC.
Seeing Floyd live was an unforgettable experience that embeds in your whole being
You nailed I "an experience "
Seen them in '88 and '94 in Arrowhead Stadium KC
Mr Gilmour and Floyd remind us beautifully how human we all are..in an often dark and confusing world. Such truth about our existence, when I hear this I close my eyes and reflect on us all and our lives..we sometimes just can't do it by ourselves so I thank you Pink Floyd and David Gilmour for your eternal message. N.A
His soloing is just out of this world.. He can sing, he can tell a story, he can take us on a journey in the wonderland of melody.
Thanks for this quality upload, amazing version!
❤️I love Pink Floyd, I saw them 7 nights in a row in Melbourne Australia 1988❤️This album is happening in reality right now❤️Shine on you crazy diamonds 💎❤️🙏🌟🔑🦋🪃🇦🇺😂
Love and love to this masterpiece stil listened by billions of people. 2023 today and Pink Floyd will be ETERNAL ❤
The solo David Gilmour is playing here at the end of the song is E.P.I.C., probably the best ever played.
Agreed
It sounds better, and legendary in this version than in the Studio version
Nah, it's a silver, the gold goes to Comfortably Numb from Pulse.
Also agree!
So many goose bump/chill inducing solos by the master. This one is a beautiful part of the collection
"This is phenomenal!", said the new (23 year old) fan who will be enjoying classics like this!
Pink Floyd was way ahead their time.
This music is the soundtrack to my youth! I grew up with this music. It doesn't matter what the younger generation thinks. No one can take this creativity from us and there will never be this kind of music ever again because it was real, honest and from the soul! All our musical contemporaries are gone now. Just know that when you hear them on the radio they helped pave the way for every other type of music that followed. But the youth doesn't care. I miss those days of my youth.
David is of course the key figure but all credit to everybody on stage. Nothing short of a
masterpriece!!
I’m still here listening to it. 17th March, 2023. Too good! Greatest band ever. 🇬🇧
Pink Floyd can change your mood for the better! Especially live recordings, you suddenly feel like it's just you and them❤️🎵🎸🎷🎛️🎶😎
Listening to this masterpiece with my new Air Pods.. crazy great!
I'm listening to this in 2022, baby. This song is the genius of Pink Floyd.
A song made back then for the times and yet soooo relevant today maybe more than ever.
@@MrDamz It is a timeless classic. ❤
This solo is orgasmic! 🤩

"On The Turning Away"
On the turning away
From the pale and downtrodden
And the words they say
Which we won't understand
"Don't accept that what's happening
Is just a case of others' suffering
Or you'll find that you're joining in
The turning away"
It's a sin that somehow
Light is changing to shadow
And casting its shroud
Over all we have known
Unaware how the ranks have grown
Driven on by a heart of stone
We could find that we're all alone
In the dream of the proud
On the wings of the night
As the daytime is stirring
Where the speechless unite
In a silent accord
Using words you will find are strange
Mesmerized as they light the flame
Feel the new wind of change
On the wings of the night
No more turning away
From the weak and the weary
No more turning away
From the coldness inside
Just a world that we all must share
It's not enough just to stand and stare
Is it only a dream that there'll be
No more turning away?
