This is one of the greatest songs of all time. I could listen to just the intro over and over. Pure magic. What a great generation of music. Happy New Year from Louisville, Ky❤🎤🎵
When I saw what you were playing, I clicked on it fast! This song starts off the Wish You Were Here album (parts 1-5) and ends it (parts 6-9) so beautifully. It is really an homage to Syd Barrett. R.I.P. Rick Wright (keyboards/vocals).
Who is The Stratocaster Master? David IS The Man. No one bends 'em quite as sweetly. Total professionalism. Man your selections are bar none. Great job. Appreciated.
Glad to see you reacting to Pink Floyd again! :) Obviously, anything from Pulse is amazing, but another live cut I recommend checking out is 'Echoes' from David Gilmour's solo concert in 2006, live from Gdansk. That was his last performance of 'Echoes' with Pink Floyd keyboard player Richard Wright, who passed away a couple of years later. As much as I love the 1972 live recording in an empty amphitheater in Pompeii. I feel like the 2006 version is more fully realized as a production (and the guitar is more front and center, along with Richard Wright's keyboards, obviously). After Richard Wright died, David Gilmour said he would never perform 'Echoes' again, as he felt it was a musical conversation between the two of them. Here is the link if you ever want to check it out: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-EMneCi9F_UQ.html
Exactly, if he had a Patreon, I would happily pay to sit down and watch the whole concert with him just to see his reaction. PULSE is an absolute masterpiece
You don't hear Pink Floyd, you don't even listen to Pink Floyd, It just hits you. And when those glorious times come when your mood matches the music, it's perfectly transcendent. I think their music hits you, Pope. The feeling simply can't be contrived. You're a gem man and thanks to you I can rest easier knowing the baton has been passed to a newer generation so that this legacy of great music will continue after you pass the baton.
Nice to see more people to reacting to this live version of the song. The best version IMO! Seem's like you where zoned out during the song, great reaction!
Pink Floyd should be listened to through a good pair of headphones 🎧 in a darkened room! You get to feel the music through your body! Takes you to another place without drugs!
I admire you Mr. POPE. Hipping and hopping is all very well and it certainly adds to the musicality of life, but you appreciate this epic music. I commend you for it. Shine on you crazy POPE.
I dated a guy back in the late 80’s, who was stationed in the Army, in Germany. He went AWOL to go to go to a Pink Floyd concert. Can you imagine being there??🔥
I met David Gilmour in 1984 back stage at a concert in Hollywood Calif. He gave me a signed album that I have in my music room. We talked for 22 minutes. I called him…“The Master Of The Stratocaster” He smiled. I asked if I could shake both his hands that make such great guitar solos, he smiled bigger and said “Sure” and shook both hands at the same time, making a cross between us, I smiled HUGE. I asked him to describe his technique of playing guitar, he replied… “I strike a note, bend it, shake it and then release it”…. Yes, he does that quite well, better than any other guitarist I know.
Greetings from Mississippi ! I flew from Memphis to London in 94 for this. Certainly a highlight of my life & I’m 65 now & have told my friends if they don’t play this at my funeral then I ain’t going ! Love your channel !
Yeah bro,the same,but I want ted nugent wang dang sweet poontang as well off the Dble live gonzo tour first hehehaaaa.reapect for your journey mate.from New Zealand.
All of us fortunate enough to have seen this show live were in a TRANCE.... MESMERIZED the entire show... as you can imagine. We walked out saying.... What did we just witness? That was out of this world incredible. I have had the extreme pleasure of meeting David Gilmour and shook both of his hands at the same time as he smiled. Hard to explain how awesome that moment was in my life.
Pink Floyd is the Mozart of our times and we are very very lucky to have them around. They are the link for us between the heavens and the earth and you are not likely to hear their like again in your lifetime. Welcome to British music lol ;) x
This is my favorite Pink Floyd song. I have the same thing Syd had so I understand where they are coming from. It also says how much they cared for him. Just think, on The Division Bell album the video for High Hopes has people carrying a large bust of Syd. That was in 1994. He left the band in 1968 and they were still paying homage to him in 1994. And at every concert they have played as well.
You did it right, bro. Some music just doesn't need any video and is better with eyes closed. Nothing to distract from the journey they've taken you on. Let it play out in your mind because that's exactly what the musicians intended for it to do. The music.... Plus, your own imagination can take you as far away as you wish to go without going anywhere at all. Great reaction!
this sone is about S yd Barrett, a founding member of Pink Floyd who experimented with mind bending drugs and ended up batshit crazy...........WIsh You Were Here is another one......if you take the first letter os this title Shine You Diamond.........SYD.
I absolutely love your reactions to Pink Floyd...you really do feel it and can see it touches you in some kind of way...as it does with every body who listens to them...Awesome reaction brudda 💯💯%🔥...Keep rocking the Floyd 👌🤘👍..And a Big Happy New Year from New Zealand !!

your well on your way, and have heard some of the great ones from live pulse already. couple more when you get to em live....MONEY which has some extra play from studio, and since you listened to studio of Another Brick in the Wall, check out the live one and they have some extra cut on it too...the difference from the official video is without that, the music kinda takes on a different feel in my opinion. happy hunting
you must realy get rid of those in ear pods,,you need a good set of full over ear headphones for floyd that way you get all the background noises,have you tried "one of these days" and "on the turning away"to name just a few of there fantastic live music
FYI: during the bands recording this song Syd walk in the studio and nobody recognized him. no one had seen him or talk to him in years. his appearance even change that much.
David Gilmore showing those bullshit shredders that machine gunning a 100 pointless notes a second is musically meaningless. One perfectly placed note can touch your soul
Hi bro, new sub here. If you want to hear the fantastic lady backup singers of Pink floyd watch Great Gig in the Sky in Venice Italy 1989. Truely incredible. Hope you like it.
Wow! It was only now that I realized that this blonde backing vocalist in the middle was Sam Brown. You could check out her song Stop, a great song, and a sexy singer.
Yes this is a tribute to the first member of the group Syd Barret that have trouble way with drougs and maybe now at this time knoledge esquizofrenia ilness.
Thanks from bringing to a new generation one of the most beautiful pieces of music EVER ! Masterpiece... I was hited by this in 1975 at 14yo, and now at 60 still listen, as the first time...
I have seen Pink Floyd Live 4 times… I saw this same show in N.Y. 1994. The concert brochure said the stage is 120 feet wide. It takes a crew of 60 technicians three days to set up the entire lights and all. The concert schedule required that there had to be three entire crews to keep up. They leap froged each other for 92 shows with 20 Trucks per crew and a total staff of 195. The tour cost the promoters $98.MILLION to put on, but the total profit was $260 MILLION… I have seen Pink Floyd 4 times. Nick Mason’s drumming is incredible and matches Gilmour’s guitar emotions while Richard Wright takes us on a Magic Carpet Ride of tones that form the foundation of it all.
Great reaction dude , this song was written about Syd Barret , the co founder of Pink Floyd who lost his mind by taking too much LSD and the the band would play this track opening their concerts as a tribute to him
I've always really liked the studio version of this....if you don't want to do the studio version of Parts I-V you definitely should check out the studio verison of Parts VI-IX that is something really incredible, the music, the production totally top shelf thanks for doing this reaction
PARTS 1 through 9 Pope, Complete, I saw this Live, A Diamond Center Stage, When Syd liked something he always described it as Diamond. How many songs did they write for Syd Barrett,, MANY!! How you doing Boi 😉❤
