Pink Floyd - High Hopes PULSE Restored & Re-Edited | First Time Reaction Singer & Musician Analysis 

This song has more meaning if you’re older like 40+. Now I’m 50+ and the grass was definitely greener . Seeing this tour in 94 was epic .

Damn, 30 years ago for this concert { 1994} and I am still listening to it today like it was yesterday. 30 friggin years. I can't listen to anything these days for 30 seconds. lol

Melancholy, wistful, sad, regretful, looking back on better times. So beautiful it makes you cry. Fitting that it's the last song on their last real studio album, played on their last tour. The end of the run, but what a run it was! 50+ years and I'm still listening to them all the time, and will for the rest of my life.

“sorrow” from this concert makes me cry every time I hear it.

I was 17 when I first heard this particular song. I loved it then because of the music itself. I'm 47 now, I still love it. But now I understand the emotions it evokes, and it takes me right back to being 17, a simpler time. At 17, the slide solo got a stank face. At 47, the slide solo gets tears because it goes straight to the soul and pulls. The grass was most definitely greener.

Easily one of the most beautiful songs I’ve ever heard. Mind blowingly good.

Comeback to this song 20 years from now. It will hit so much differently. This song is pure nostalgia, in a good way.

Growing up with this music makes me realize how lucky we were. I'm glad the younger generation is learning to appreciate the music of the 60's and 70's no gimmicks. Just pure Rock and Roll!!!

Dear Millie, I was 22 when I saw this masterpiece live. Now I am 52 but feelings are the same. Hugs from Italy

The slide guitar section always gets me. The whole of Division Bell is a work of art.

I was lucky enough to see them in '87 and '94. Nothing compares....

'94 was a great year for Concerts, I saw this Tour (still have my ticket stub), Clapton, Rolling Stones, Sting (warmed up for the ) Grateful Dead. Great times... Love your Kitty!

Millie, you're a lucky girl, you have so much to discover in common from Pink Floyd ... not only the fabulous Pulse Concert ... you can discover the Pompeji Concert from 2016 or the concert from David Gilmour in Poland/Gdansk with Orchestra ... or the concerts in the Royal Albert Hall ... and so much more ... and every concert is different every show is different you have month of material to discover ... stay on your Pink Floyd journey ... we will accompany you until the end ...!!

I was at the opening night of this tour in Miami, hard to believe it has been 30 years, what a show.

Great reaction. One of my favorite songs. David Gilmour is a guitar master.

Saw them on this tour in Vancouver, BC. It was one of the most beautiful moments of my life.

I saw this show in Chicago. Truthfully it was the 77 Animals tour in Cleveland that changed my soul.

I was there 😂😂

When I first heard this one I realised it was the end of Pink Floyd for it was the making of final lines.

Best concert I've been to. The computer screen in no way does that stage justice.

It’s fantastically beautiful !

Amazing! Definitely one of my favorites from the concert.

saw this 5 times. One common thing when it was over many just sat there looking like "What did I just experience". Give some of Dave's solo work. 'Live at Pompeii 2016" "in any Tongue" "5 A.M' > Live at Gdansk 2008 ' 'On an Island" **** "the Blue" Take a Breathe "" Echoes' for the last time *****

Eargasm... Pure eargasm.

This song comes from the Division Bell, an album made after Roger Waters had left the group. Rogers always had written the lyrics for most PF songs. For this album most of the lyrics came from David Gilmour’s wife Polly.

That sigh at 3:26. We’ve all been there with Pink Floyd ❤

Loved your reaction, Millie! Love your channel also.

David Gilmour tickets went on sale for his UK shows yesterday. ❤

Hi Millie. To paraphrase the Pink Floyd song, I wish you could have been there, too! I was lucky enough to be able to see them on this tour (which was actually called the 'Division Bell Tour' named after the album, PULSE was the name of the live album). I saw them in May 1994 at the old Foxboro Stadium in Massachusetts, so a few months before this concert was filmed at Earl's Court in October of that year. It was a truly amazing experience and one which I will never forget. Great reaction! 🙂

We all need a time machine to be there.... cool reaction Millie. This concert is a gem and this song touch me very deep.

Yes, one of the best moments in my life was attending this "Pulse" concert at the Pontiac Silverdome in Pontiac/Detroit, Michigan...absolutely epic. Love your reaction.

The whole pulse concert is probably still the greatest concert of all time. All excellent musicians, production and engineering- all of it pick any song.

"Encumbered forever by desire and ambition There's a hunger still unsatisfied..."

Love how you vibe on them. Same with me, saw maybe 1000 concerts, big acts, but those 3 floydian ones were topping them all, ITwws deep dive maybe in your own soul land, so much room to Journey like never experienced with music before the GOAT❤

Really fortunate to see this great band in 1994. It was an experience which words can’t describe 🙏🙏

I was there and I get goose bumps watching all the reactions, bye the way glad you paid attention to the moggy😀

The endless river last album, the lyrics amazing. The steel guitar brings out emotions. Thank You...

That hypnotised happy feeling is the way we were all feeling at the concert, you have seen us when the camera pans across, and because this is song is perfect.

Millie, great to see your appreciation for this!! I was fortunate to see Pink Floyd on this Pulse tour at The Alamodome in San Antonio, Texas in 1994. There were 47,000 fans and I had 18th row seats on the floor!! I worked in the concert business for 23 years, and this was an experience of a lifetime!!!

It's not an acoustic guitar, but an Spanish guitar. Great reaction.

You should give Coming Back to Life a listen. It's off the Division Bell album also. Also performed on the Pulse tour. It's a beautiful and uplifting song.

I love how you're into the track and loving it, and I'm thinking "Wait for the pedal steel solo" :) The Division Bell was the album that got me into Floyd.

I never saw the original tour, but I was alive and their fan at the time... but I'll just say that The Australian Pink Floyd Show recreates this tour complete with original stage props that was donated by Pink Floyd. These guys even played one of David Gilmour's birthday parties I heard, they're spectacular!

Love your reaction and your lovely smile Millie❤

Went to see this concert (Pulse tour) in Vancouver, Canada, and it was so stunning... the comments about it meaning more later is so true - singing about time slipping away, and longing for the things that have been. It goes so much faster than you think it will, enjoy your life, make the most of it. If I could hop in a time machine and see it live again, I'd jump on that opportunity, absolutely.

I worked for them on this tour 1994 Division Bell 600 technicians to build the stage 55 trucks on the road, i was 22 years old

I was there. Saw this show live in Lisbon, Portugal

Beautiful song, Gorgeous Millie

Nice to hear a young person appreciate the mastery of melody and lyrics that was PF. In 40 years, you will weep when you hear this again. It's only a blink. The mastery becomes overwhelming. Well done in your reaction!

Also remember to check out their earlier work , Like Julia Dream , Pillow of winds , Lucifer sam. .. They really don't have a bad song , Don't just listen to their hits they're the kind of band that thrive on hidden gems. x

I am not a huge fan of lapsteel guitar in country, but when David picks it up and plays it in his very own way, i always love it. The Division Bell album got ok, but for Pink Floyd standards, rather low ratings initially. I think it aged pretty well and over time grew on a lot of people.

Millie, I was 13 when I heard live a Pompei and saw all concerts in my country. You are young and make this music. Then a new star is born

Great reaction, love from the Pennsylvania mountains, USA.

Saw them at the Montreal Olympic stadium in 1994... They did 3 nights in a row with 65K people attending... (saw the 3rd one) And I have to say that it was the best show I have ever seen, and I have seen quite a few of them. The next best show was Muse with Drones. But this show, the lights, ambiance and of course, the music was the greatest for me.

I was there at Earls court in London for both nights of the Pulse tour. It changes you, effects you on so many levels. Pure genius

An absolute master of music.

I think describing how David G makes you feel is hard to do. He takes you through so many emotions in each solo it’s impossible

New here. Don’t know what you’ve done so far but the entire concert is a performance that in my opinion is unmatched to this day. Sorrow. Comfortably Numb. Great Gig in the sky one of these days. Run like hell. As a musician you will be both dumbfounded and amazed that it’s live and it is soooooooo goooood.

Pink Floyds music has always had the ability to transport me to different times and places, just beautiful

❤ You'd like ( On the turning away - Live at the delicate sound of thunder concert ) The solo in that is so emotional.

Toda conexão espiritual entre tudo!!! Está nessa músic, é algo além.

This was the first live gig I ever went to when I was 12 years old lol changed my life

I totally relate to your time machine argument.. Seeing the Pulse on the screen is one of a sick gutpunch, I can’t possibly start to imagine, how would it feel to live it.. ❤

Not jealous, its envious and rightly so. I saw them 5 times. Alway FANTASTIC!

Always love your upbeat personality during your reactions Suggestion for your next Pink Floyd - "On the Turning Away" 1988 Delicate Sounds of Thunder tour Stay safe

One of these days, Sorrow and Run Like Hell are the MUST from this epic Concert I have blessed to experience in Tampa 30 years ago. You will love them just like all the songs from Pulse. God Bless You for doing this Sister. :)

Great reaction, Millie. Regarding time machines, RU-vid is a time machine of sorts, allowing you to at least vicariously experience the great Pink Floyd. You should do more reactions from this amazing Pulse concert. Try Sorrow next, or Run Like Hell, or One Of These Days, or ... I could go on and on...........

this is one of fave songs

Los mejores

Every time Pink Floyd toured Australia, i had to work. Now i load up my cheap blue ray player with the Pulse DVD and watch Pulse in HD on a large screen while the audio plays through quality floor standing speakers via a cheap amp........almost as good as being their. Add about 20 friends and it is even better.

So Epic! And imagine this: This was their opening song for the concert! This is the late (David Gilmore influenced) Pink Floyd from the „Division Bell“ Album. If you liked this, check out also „Shine on you crazy diamond“ and „Keep talking“ (Gilmore lets his guitar sing through his mouth by using a talkbox).

Lovely react

That lap steel is so hauntingly beautiful in David's hands!

❤I'll explain David Gilmour's style. Guitar Magazine back in the mid - late 90s wrote: David Gilmour is The Undisputed Dean Of The Compound Bend and has practically Perfect Note Placement. His solos are not technically difficult Note wise, but to be able to bend and release is difficult to mirror. David Gilmour said, not verbatim as I'll try to explain, that he plays his solos, mainly, as if like an Opera Singer. Play a note and bend it in certain ways and shake it like an Opera Singer. Dave Mustaine of Megadeth said, David Gilmour can take one note and bend it in so many ways where many other guitarists have to use the entire fretboard to do so. Something along those lines. About David Gilmour's mouth movement as he plays is because he is actually singing in his mind and actually moves his mouth muscles as if he were singing it and then relays it to his fingers in order to achieve the sound and or sounds he is wanting to make and or perform. For example, studies have shown that when a person is annunciating a word or words in their mind their trachea and larynx, maybe just larynx, moves as if talking. A great example of David Gilmour singing the notes that he is playing is in the song, (Best Acoustic Song Ever) Wish You Were Here short solos. I was 15 years old when the Pulse Tour was happening and I heard a commercial for it. When I heard the voice of David Gilmour sing, in the advertisement, "Ticking Away The Moments That Make Up A Dull Day...." I thought, WHAT THE HELL? I went out and bought The Dark Side of The Moon Album. I just went straight to the song Time. Then, when I heard that guitar Solo of his in the song Time, I thought.. okay.. time to pick up a guitar and start learning. That Solo is considered a Masterpiece of Composition. Not technically difficult to play, but again... He is and still is The Undisputed Dean Of The Compound Bend with practically Perfect Note Placement. Hence why many people say, "Damn! He can make that Guitar Sing!" All my life, I never understood why the 2nd (last Solo) of Comfortably Numb was never #1 in Best or Greatest Solos of All Time. However, finally a few years ago it became The Greatest or Best Solo of All Time. If you understand Music and Math, that Solo can be played Indefinitely. (If you don't get tired) It goes from B down to E and repeats. David Gilmour in an interview said something along the lines of, "The structure of the music allows me the freedom to just play." 🎸 To end.. David Gilmour admits that he never was a fast playing Guitarist. Does he really need to be? (rhetorically asking) 🎸 ❤🎉 Alice Cooper said something like, "Pink Floyd is Here... While everyone else is over here... " In an interview showing with his hands the separation of... No one is like nor ever will be like Pink Floyd.. 🎉 ❤😊🎉 David Gilmour is my favorite Guitarist and Artist 🎉 Roger Waters said that David Gilmour has a Very Powerful Voice 🎉🎉

On the turning away live,, best song pink floyd live, ❤❤❤❤

Would just like to say Thank you , from an oldddddd person like me to see the joy on a young persons face watching Pink Floyd gives me hope that their mastery will last.

Love to see someone reaction to Floyds 1990 Berlin concert. Excellent stage performance

Miss Millie, if you haven't watched Pink Floyd's entire Pulse concert, you need to get on that pronto!

Their music video is mindblowing too ❤

The greatest song of them

Yes, everybody of us who were not lucky enough to witness the Pulse Concerts or too young, everyone „wish we were here“ back then on one of those concerts, which were not just concerts, but as you rightly put it an audio-visual experience!

Same concert...Coming Back To Life.

This a special song for Floyd fans as its the last studio song they did and the last track on the last studio album and it a look back when they started out in a university town Cambridge and a look back to how it was . Its a emotional song for me

I see young musicians react to this kind of music all the time. You say time machine. Some say they were born in the wrong era. I say none off that. Instead, i say study every aspect of this music and go create music just like this. You're young. You could bring this kind of music back and even make it better. Don't long for the past. Look to a future with really great music that your generation can create. Find your passion to create masterpieces like this and many other Pink Floyd songs. Also, other types you all are enjoying. The future of misic is in your hands. You can absolutely do it. Who knows. Maybe with music, you can change the world! Look at what this music has done to you and so many others.

😮seen them only once, but it was amazing ❤🙏

This came out in the 90s when stones and stp,preal jam ,candle box ,on and on and on...90s was the greatest time for music.. anyone says different I will step on their foot ..I was at this show

Isn’t it wonderful to see a young person of the current generation saying she wishes she had a Time Machine to go back in order to witness a Pink Floyd concert. Here I am as a 67 year old who has been a fan of theirs from the first time I heard them. As a teenager I was in the merchant navy and I listened to Echoes every night when I went to bed. Later on in my life I did the hippy trail to India where I experienced smoking grass for the first time, I vividly remember listening to the album Wish You Were Here laid down in a park thinking I was on a voyage through space.(by the way boys and girls I do not condone the use of drugs of any kind, I only ever did that whilst in India) My biggest regret is that I had the chance to go see them live at Earl’s Court London but my dear departed wife talked me out of it because money was tight at the time. All I can do now is marvel at the young people hearing Pink Floyd for their first time and appreciating the magnificence of song songwriting and musicianship.😊

Even after all there's years it's impossible to describe the connection they made with people. Pink Floyd was simply magic.

Saw them on these tour twice 94

i have seen this band play live 3 times burnt into my soul

hi millie, now you got to react to the cover of "high hopes" from nightwish sung by marco. so epic.

David is still amazing. He will be releasing another solo album at some point in this next year. If he does a show anywhere within 1000 miles/kilometers of you, don’t hesitate. Get a ticket no matter the cost.

great to see you

Oh ! Wow 😱, yes oh wow, this Is pink floyd

If it wasn't for those beautiful flowers 🌷 I wouldn't be watching 😍

right on ty ty ty

Other great songs from Pulse are Learning to fly, Sorrow and Keep Talking. Mind blowing. Awe hell..every song was great from that concert.

As someone who was there - believe me you wouldn't want to go - you will walk out saying "No concert will ever be so good" and you will never go to another concert in case you are disappointed.

I just turned 66 yo and have loved the band since 1969! Seen them a few times and always a great Concert. David Gilmore Has been in my top two guys ever in a band! But I can put him 1st also! 🥰

❤ it, as always. I know you love Marko from NW, so you should check out their tribute to Pink Floyd. They did High Hopes at the End of an era Concert, with Marko singing
