Nightwish fans might have something to say about that...ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-4oEDnVeYYyM.html I don't want to detract from this terrific rendition though. Brit Floyd produced a very faithful tribute to the original. I'm sure Gilmour liked this version as well as he did the Nightwish version.
David saw them play live at The Fairfield Halls in London many years ago. After the show he went back to their dressing room and announced himself , had a beer with them and a few pix. Then 2 years later Brit Floyd got an invitation to play at David’s 50th birthday party. He hand picked all the songs and even Rick got up and played on ‘Numb’ with the . So..yeah, David likes them
Lucas James , this year I went to the Australian Pink Floyd Band in Trier, Germany. The difference between the 2 bands: Brit Floyd stays close to the original of PF. The Aussies makes their own interpretation of the PF songs. I prefer Brit Floyd
These guys (and gals) have gone WAY WAY beyond a cover band; even saying "Tribute Band" doesn't seem to cover how awesome they are. * David Gilmour loves these guys... what an honor for them as well as TAPFS. \m/
Don’t ask me why because I don’t know or can explain it but the solo on the slide guitar always makes me well up and tears flow. The power of music. Thank you David for this masterpiece
The Division Bell album is greatly under-appreciated. The way each song flows into the other is amazing. I have listen to this album thousands of times, from start to finish. It is best enjoyed as a whole album.
Been a Pink floyd fan for as long as i can remember. Brit Floyd gave us the uniqie sound of pink floyd, back. This is one of the most beautyful songs Pink Floyd ever made.
they will be in Beirut, Lebanon on the 22nd of December...I can't wait...the more performances I watch, the more excited I am getting to see them.. "High Hopes" for a wonderful concert is what we have for you in Beirut, you're welcome!
I hope that long after the original members of PF are gone, and after BF are all gone, there will still be tribute bands as good as these folks are that will carry on the PF legacy forever and ever.
That's it. I was unable to see original Pink Floyd cause I was too young. I WANT SEE THIS EPIC BAND IN POLAND NOW. Please vote me up so they can notice this. GUYS, YOU ARE AWESOME, KEEP ON GOOD WORK!
Omg! This is one of the best versions I've EVER heard! I am a BIG Pink Floyd fan, and I usually don't like it when someone convers their songs, but this was awesome!
Best tribute act ive ever seen..saw them last night at the Echo Arena..Have to say much better than the Aussie Floyd which i never thought id be saying
never heard of these guy but wish i had they playing in Bradford where i live n cant wait till june these guys rock# really impressed with these guys how come iv not heard of them n i live in uk llol wicked cant wait till june x
I'll have to go see these guys during their next tour, I always wanted to see Pink Floyd live but I'm pretty sure this as close as I'm going to get now.
**Damian Darlington=GENIUS! Ian Cattell has come along way with Damian and the crew but he rocks even on a bad day! And also....The Band Fkn' Rocks Mates!!!!! I've seen you through 3 times in concert and I 've seen Gilmour/Waters/Floyd and when I closed my eyes I thought I was back at the Pulse concert! lol Thank you for keeping us all sedated and fascinated with your music.
I just listened to the PF HH Pulse remastered version before listening to this and this, imho, sounds better. In particular, the sound and tuning on the steel exceeds the original imo. I wonder if it's a case of a different steel guitar , different strings, and/different amplifications? The pulse tuning sounds just off barely while this tuning and pitch is spot on. BF hasn't matched this version since and I have seen them multiple times. Sometimes you just nail it!
Come on guys... You couldn' compare one band with another. This is not competition. Just relax and enjoy the magic tones be proud to be a human, and fly away, where you want to be with this song!
What makes this even better is their use of the original video from the Division Bell. Sooooooo glad they filmed this, recorded it, etc. My favorite PF song and version.....EXCELLENCE!
Just brilliant! I saw these guys at The Royal Albert Hall earlier this year and I was just blown away by the show. Hearing this song live for the first time was real highlight. If you get the chance, go and see them. You will not be disappointed
:) Damn how i get goosebumps out of this :) YEY :) Got to see them :) I have seen Pink Floyd many times and seen just about any cover and tribute band here in Norway :)
I have seen them twice now, and having seen vids of Aussie pink floyd they are a lot better. Both musically and vocally. A very well put together tribute. Would still go watch them a 3rd time if they tour again.
I'm so happy!!! Got 2 tickets to the concert in Malmö, Sweden, on the 10:th of october 2013!!! I missed to see Pink Floyd live.. But these guys are just as great!!!!!
How can I say? This is Freaking Awesome!!! Performances like this, makes my mind explode, literally! Congrats to Brit Floyds to be, in my opinion, one of the best tribute shows ever! The music, the visuals, the experience all combine makes the perfect show to see! Glad to see them in Portugal, 22th November!
that awsome,when i lessen this music,i am going to pridise and everything are green and greener and final we feel the bit of god,praise god forever.......
05:15".....the Endless River.....forever and ever"....it doesn't get any better than this! Perfectly replicated and 100%+ spot on! For you, Ryan Michael McCollough...you'd have loved this version!!
Beyond the horizon of the place we lived when we were young In a world of magnets and miracles Our thoughts strayed constantly and without boundary The ringing of the division bell had begun Along the Long Road and on down the Causeway Do they still meet there by the Cut There was a ragged band that followed in our footsteps Running before time took our dreams away Leaving the myriad small creatures trying to tie us to the ground To a life consumed by slow decay The grass was greener The light was brighter With friends surrounded The nights of wonder Looking beyond the embers of bridges glowing behind us To a glimpse of how green it was on the other side Steps taken forwards but sleepwalking back again Dragged by the force of some inner tide At a higher altitude with flag unfurled We reached the dizzy heights of that dreamed of world Encumbered forever by desire and ambition There's a hunger still unsatisfied Our weary eyes still stray to the horizon Though down this road we've been so many times The grass was greener The light was brighter The taste was sweeter The nights of wonder With friends surrounded The dawn mist glowing The water flowing The endless river Forever and ever
I'm baffled at how perfectly they recreated the song. Not only correct notes but also the singer's voice is a damn close match and the tone of the individual instruments and how they blend together is way up in the uncanny valley - pretty much if you didn't tell me this was a cover band I would have probably never guessed. Even the tone of the drums is perfect - and that is no small feat.
OMG!! I'm a Pink Floyd fan from waaaaay back and that was superb! The part that always makes the hairs on my neck stand up and the tears well in my eyes is the lap steel slide guitar part at the end and these guys nailed it! I would pay to see these guys if they ever visit Australian shores. Well done to you guys. Keep up the good work. And can I add there are 33 deaftards who downvoted this song.
Man there was no High Hopes yesterday in Prague, I was a tad dissappointed, HH is easily my most favourite song by Pink Floyd. I will have to attend once more, hopefully they will play it this time.
