Pink Floyd - High Hopes (REACTION) with my wife 

I was at this concert. I'm an Englishman who was 45 at the time and I had tears running down my face for most of the gig. I completely lost my British stiff upper lip. I was an emotional mess by the end. The greatest gig I've ever been to. ✌️❤️🇬🇧

Dave Gilmour’s guitar is not plugged into an amp,it’s plugged straight into your soul..Lovely touching reaction.🙏

I was fortunate enough to see them live in 1994 in Oakland, Ca. Superb musicianship.

Love it..,reaction..- still hope for our planet, all the best..., Boyan- Ljubljana, In a world where most wear a mask, it is a privilege to see the soul.

Have to love this number, Pink Floyd in general ❤️

He looks like a farmer. But nobody else can touch your soul with a guitar like this man.

Ok! You guys should be made the official Pink Floyd reactors because you both really get it. Always a joy watching your reaction and listening to your words.

I was 67 yesterday and have listened to Pink Floyd since I was 14. this song has more meaning the older you get. It makes you realise how fragile life is and makes you realise what you have lost over the years. I too cry every time I hear this song. Your reactions were spot on.

YES, David Gilmour is a very "Cool Guy".....Back in O.C. Calif when I was 30 my wife heard a commercial on the radio about a P.F. show coming up. Knowing I am a Floyd fan she called the radio station (KMET - LA, “The Mighty Met”) to get information on the concert, The DJ on live radio Cynthia Fox…. said...."Congratulations, YOU are caller number 10, YOU just won tickets to the show and the Sound Check Party before the show"... I met David Gilmour back stage. He gave us both 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 told him his music will stand the test of time with anything from Beethoven or Mozart. He smiled even bigger. 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. Hard to explain how awesome that moment was in my life. 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. . I told him in my eyes he’s a “Legend“. He thanked me and said “Enjoy the show”…. during the concert after the song “Money” he looked right at me and said…. “On saxophone, another Legend, Mr. Raphael Ravenscroft” … acknowledging my comment to him. It is my favorite moment in over 300 shows I’ve seen. I asked David…. How do you create those awesome solos?… he said….. I sit on a stool and listen to what Roger, Nick and Rick put down and play along. I listen to what I played and pick out what I like, then I put the pieces together into one piece then learn to play it as one. Our fans are fanatics for our shows to sound like the albums so I must play it correctly each time in a show. I have the concert Brochure and album on the wall with David’s picture centerfold. 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. The Red Fender Stratocaster he used for this concert in the Guitar Collector World is ....PRICELESS

Here we are! Someone crying at a Pink Floyd song! LOL! I listen to PF every day and it is my great joy every day! I cry every day!

i m french merci beaucoup !!!! your reaction it s very emmotionnel peace and love usa !!

You have said the best statement that I have ever heard. "My head is too small to comprehend why is this happening to me when I listen to Pink Floyd."

A song like this brings you to the point of complete and vulnerable connection to your heart. This is the reason for the tears. Nothing to be embarrassed about! Music brings me to tears quite often!

I cry to this fucking song as well. it's fucking divine....

I agree .. beautiful and worthy to move one to tears..

The Pulse Concerts were not only timeless, they feel timeless today, because they were so ahead of their time! To my knowledge, this was the first concert, where the Lightshow es choreographed with computers to be fully synchronized with the beat/rhythm of the songs/tracks. The surround sound used in the concerts was unheard of. And to my knowledge nobody has since again pulled off something to that scale!

As a professional musician, I like that you’ve noticed how serenely businesslike Gilmour and the other members of Pink Floyd are, as they channel the music of the spheres in this magnificent work. To me, the most effective musicians have always understood that, so to speak, it’s not the artist’s job to do the crying, but to cause it. This is an act of understanding and concentration. This band of amazing cool-tempered souls, and their visual collaborators, have taken this wisdom and manifested it so sublimely that we are left stunned and shattered. I love how David Gilmour casually introduces the tune: “Well, I suppose we should get on with it.” ☺️

"Crying with Andre" I love it - Dont be embarrassed, pink floyd has brought me to tears many times. Pink Floyd is EMOTIONAL MUSIC YOU FEEL IN YOUR SOUL, IN YOUR PAST MEMORIES.

Melancholy is very hard to explain.

As a lifelong Floyd fan I’d say they produced a catalog of music that was, is, and will forever be timeless. ❤

David Gilmour brings his gift to humanity...and oh what a gift it is.

No band stirs the emotions like Pink Floyd. You don't just listen to them. Your mind consumes them.

Greatest band ever in my opinion, been a Pink Floyd fan since 1969 and Dark Side Of The Moon is my favourite all time album. Love High hopes and The Division Bell is a fabulous album.

I was fortunate enough to see Pink Floyd in concert 'The delicate sound of thunder" tour. Live the very air around you is filled with sound, unforgettable.

Pink Floyd is a band that can make even a grown man cry.

That's why there is no other band in the universe like Pink Floyd! David Gilmour is in a tee shirt and jeans singing,... playing Classical guitar,... playing a Lap Steel guitar, he's a legend, and so is Pink Floyd! Every PF song is an Experience!

Don't feel bad, I've heard this song a thousand times and I had tears welling up.

i love your pink floyd reactions. beautiful reactions to amazing timeless songs. also, dont be embarrassed to cry, i got emotional watching you, and ive heard this song so many times

As a 59 yr old male, I can tell you that I have experienced 'onion eyes' many times over the years listening to PF's music, so I always appreciate both of your abilities to truly experience the music that you react to! There is a reason that Tuomas (Nightwish) chose to do a tribute to this awesome song, and though I rarely appreciate anyone's attempts at re-creating PF's music, I do quite enjoy Nightwish's version of the song! Also, although there are MANY guitarists in the world that I admire a lot, no one conveys emotion through their guitar (for me) quite like David Gilmour! Cheers from Kodiak Island!

Dziękuję za szczere emocje! To miłe, gdy ludzie rozumieją taką muzykę sercem i duszą.

Yes,... like strawberries picked fresh from the garden in summer ... a taste much sweeter and so reminiscent of yesteryear.

You two seem so honest and sincere with your reactions ,really like your channel, fat old sun ,from the remember that night concert is another great song , i think you would like it ,

Hello Andre and Dominica, I have seen your reactions and what you have said in each reaction of this incredible concert, and that is why I wanted to share that I had the opportunity to see Pink Floyd in Mexico City in 1994, on April 10, I was about 30 meters in front of the stage, where the sphere came out in comfortably numb, the experience from start to finish was incredible, and I can tell you that I was hallucinated for a week because I didn't believe what I had seen, as you have said, the music, the lights, the sound, the experience was 360, and I share that between 1992 and 2005 I saw more than 40 artists including Rolling Stones, Metallica, Scorpions, Sarah Brigtman, Phil Collins, Guns and Roses, Michael Jackson, etc. .... but no concert made me vibrate so much musically, emotionally and that you didn't know where to see, where to pay attention because live it was amazing, without further ado, it has been the best concert of my life

Very true about Pink Floyd, especially David Gilmour, being humble. I feel they just are the best ever of music. I fell in love with Pink Floyd at 15 years old. Now I'm 45. I enjoy reactions to Pink Floyd just to know the word is spread about these amazing musicians. If you ever seem to be losing hope in something, just listen to Pink Floyd and all seems to feel better.

They are the best band period...😊 you both are wonderfull too

I really enjoy your reactions to Pink Floyd so much. This song especially touches my soul also. It is a song about remembering back to our youth and the simplicity of our hopes and dreams. When we were young “everything and anything “ was possible. But, as we grow older and “life” has kicked us down a few times, and friends and loves disappoint us….. we loose our ability to see the joy and wonder of life. This song is a masterpiece. It helps us remember who we were….when hope was real. Life was intended for “living”….not just existing. Sadly our present world has forgotten that truth. Now….we just exist. A powerful song to remind us, who we were. I listen to this song quite often……to remind myself of who we used to be.❤️🙏🇨🇦

I think it was the solo at the end that really got him. Never stood a chance. 😉😏

I love how you thought your strawberry metaphor would be crazy, when really it could not have captured the essence of this song more.

Beautiful song. Please Please guys you have to watch The great gig in the sky from the same concert. It is breath taking.

That guitar was crying! So sweet!

God i love you two - perfect reaction and description of what Pink Floyd can do to you and where they can transport you

There really is no other like band to compare Pink Floyd to! They are a genre' unto themselves, all by themselves! cerebra. They make you think, reminisce, ponder your life.

Childhood is calling when always listen to pinkfloyd😂 ..i cant resist that , fink floyd is just mmm❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥

Such a great reaction! Would love to see a reaction for Pink Floyd - _Marooned_ (Music Video) from you.

I liked the video because of your facial expressions at the end. I saw that you definetly got the feel of the song unlike other people who shouted "greaaat", "awesomeee" in an artificial and superfluous way.

Beautiful, absolutely. I can never get bored with this piece of music, don't be embarrassed, music is supposed to make us feel things, Bravo 👏 👏 👏

Pink Floyd makes emotions audible - they always take you on a journey...where you ultimately go is entirely your choice. This song is a recap to their journey through life - as a band, and as individuals. The tribute to their fallen founder - Syd Barrett - is there as well. It is truly fitting that this is the closing track on their final complete studio album (and as a unified group). They have NO peers - even 30 years down the road. Thankfully, their work will still be available to current and future generation to wonder at.

Our tears are as precious as Gilmour's notes. Here all emotions come together,

BRAVO MAJSTORE! DAVID GILMOUR VAZDA NAJBOLJI I VAZDA NAJVECI! PINK FLOYD ZAUVIJEK! A PJESMA HIGH HOPES ZA NAVIJEK!

Love, love, love this song! Absolutely gorgeous. ❤️❤️ Thanks, you guys

Simply love this number, so enchanting ❤️

I think you have dreams to reach for rather than dreams you look back at. I really enjoy your reactions you remind me off myself. At 14 i first heard pink floyd in a freinds bedroom, he had just bought the album and was lucky enough to have his own record player. I soon had my own an old dancet record player begged of an uncle and my first ever album dark side off the moon. And somehow pink floyd only ever got better. Im now 65 and my only regret is never seeing them live but i can and do listen to them on a much better sound system.

Emotional mountains and plains.... masterpiece everywhere! Magic Pink Floyd are so magic and David Gilmour is their GOD!

Dont´be embarrest for showing your emotions, i love when people actually feel and enjoy this wonderful bands songs. Peace out mates. 😍😇

I tell ya for me besides Loving the mighty Zepp! Pink Floyd is so damn good my 2nd favorite band of all time! Many memories as a teen in the 70's!

This band is something else. I remember I had a To-Do list given to me by the wife right after we moved into our first home. I was doing work with the music playing and my 11 yer old daughter was on the couch doing something. Pink Floyd came on and it was the song Us and Them. By the time the song was over my 11 Y.O was in tears. I asked her want was wrong and she said this song is very pretty. That song has made me cry every time I listen to it. I would highly recommend "Us and Them" for you. The lyrics are unworldly.

By chance I discovered this very nice couple and I love watching them with these wonderful songs!

It's interesting and encouraging to hear you both talk about how this music affects your moods and feelings. Seems Andre has the same music preference as I do when I hear his reaction. My top three are Pink Floyd, Led Zepplin and Rush and I can't imagine how I would have gone thru life if I was just hearing them for the first time. I started listening to Floyd in 70, Zep in 73 and Rush in 77 .......they have gotten me thru my life.

David Gilmour (guitar) was the placidity, guitar virtuoso, the silky smooth voice and co-maestro; the equilibrium. * March 6, 1946 (age 76 years) Richard Wright (keyboards) was the essential underlying symmetry; musical nurturer. Occasional singer. * July 28, 1943 (rip 2008) Nick Mason (drums) was the heartbeat, structure and foundation; the sole member involved from the emergence of PF to the last recording. * January 27, 1944 (age 79 years) Pink Floyd - Sorrow (1994) = ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-JdPTec5ADFE.html Pink Floyd - Comfortably Numb (1994) = ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-vi7cuAjArRs.html Pink Floyd - Shine On You Crazy Diamond (1994)= ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-4oK1Jco6JFM.html Pink Floyd - Another Brick In The Wall (1994) = ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-W0bi7OfaKMY.html Pink Floyd - Time (2005) = ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-oEGL7j2LN84.html >> Brit Floyd - Us and Them (to end of DSOTM album) (WOW tribute) = ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-bLZWTkNyZFo.html Pink Floyd - Great Gig In The Sky (studio) = ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-1jXf-89BU3g.html >> Brit Floyd - Shine On You Crazy Diamond Parts I-V (2011) = ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-skN_Uo4fki0.html David Gilmour - High Hopes (2016) = ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-o3O_Wi9UDfY.html Pink Floyd - Money (1994) = ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-HNPDAfJTN10.html >> Brit Floyd - Dogs (2013) = ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-HYySRcY9JDQ.html Pink Floyd - Comfortably Numb (2005)(Waters Reunion) = ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-P_4uEaZQ2Kg.html Pink Floyd - Time (1994) = ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-F_VjVqe3KJ0.html AWESOME!!

It's okay to cry, it does it to me too. Try "Take It Back" or "Great Gig In The Sky."

This song always takes me back to my childhood, playing with friends and at a time that we have no idea that one day will be the last time we will all be together. I miss my childhood friends!!

The Division Bell is my favorite album because of this masterpiece. As you say, this is timeless. Loved your reaction.

I wait for "on the turning away" clearly live. Congrat for your react, are so emotional, thanks and bye Andre and Domi.

On the way to the 1994 “PULSE TOUR” concert playing this song in my car a friend said he wasn’t sure he liked the song as much as others on the album….. THEN we saw it performed live and he said…. “WHOA”, That was fucking AWESOME”… I agreed. Incredible to witness live.

Pink Floyd - Pulse 1994 live, simply imposing, majestic, mystical, I never tire of seeing and listening to it, I have it on cassette, CD, VHS and DVD 👌👌👌👏👏👏

Your reaction was spot on.

I love this song. The version by Pink Floyd is wonderful and the version by Nightwish is a great homage to the legendary band. No discussion needed, both versions are great.

I'm 65 and 66 in a few months and I shed tears to a lot of music! And the women I have known always liked that I am that way!

Hi Andrei, I feel your emotion , Pink Floyd always make me emotional when I listen to them. I have every album they ever made. They are not just musicians they are pure artists. No one will ever compare to them. I loved your reaction.

This song, amongst others from Pink Floyd, touch my soul. There beautiful behond comprehension. And you guys' reaction to these types of performances proves my point. ' One's eye's are a view into the soul' , and both of you have good ones! x

Even their music from over 50yrs ago is still relevent they are truley timeless

Yet another great reaction. I’m sure by now your listeners want you to do “dark side of the moon” full album reaction. Count me among them. P.S. not one song at a time. Straight through side one and then side two. It will truly amaze you

Such a beautiful song such gifted musicians , fabulous reaction from you both and good to see tears we’ve all had them for this tune 👍👍

Heartfelt reaction, enjoyed it a lot And from the same album one of many favourite PF songs, Lost for words - that one is a must

"Bittersweet." Love that, coz it's the song in a nutshell! Have listened to it 10,000 times (lol) but it never fails to give me electrifying goosebumps and a tear or two every damn time! Love your reactions. Perhaps along with Vin and Sori, you are my second most fave couple reactor. Subbing. Keep exploring the PF rabbit hole. (I recommend "On the Turning Away" live next - a song about homelessness and general apathy).

This is why they are the best

This song is beyond what words can describe…. The process of unbound adventure (youth) to staleness and decay (life aging you)…. I don’t know how else to describe it but such insane beauty applies to the observation and process of this song. Also, their songs follow the process of life. A subtle introduction, a ramping up, a smooth pocket in the chorus, increasing severity leading to the crescendo of David’s solos, and then the wind down.. the deep exhale. My god, the love in it all is simply describing and relating the process to us. My god.

Hi I love your genuine reactions to my favourite band. You both get exactly what happens when exposed to total genius. Pink Floyd hits your soul . Keep up the good work, peace

If melancholy was a song, this is it. Sublime. Another PF masterpiece. Such beauty. 🙂

GOAT, I wish you two had been there.

Hi guys, one of their best this song isn't it? On this slide guitar just masters of our time, we are,were so lucky to have these guys PINK FLOYD to listen to thanks for making our life's so much better being there for us Peter

Not only their music is timeless, I think the feelings of this music are timeless and you both show us that. And that made me know that we are one world and don't give a fuck where we come from - we are all people of this world and have to learn to understand and get along with each other. That can only be the plan ! Sorry for this emotional outburst and best wishes @all from hamburg (germany) If I had more thumbs up I´ll give you :-))

David Gilmore can hypnotize you with his Music, Voice, and his Guitar playing pulling your Hearts. Pink Floyd was by far the Best Concert In My Life for 2 hours and 30 minutes of Great Songs with the Best Light Show Ever Watched. Anything live with Pink Floyd is Amazing and you can't miss anything. Great Reaction

I’m 64 now. I went down the Pink Floyd rabbit hole when I was 15 and I have been unable to get out nor do I want to. Floyd is the next level above music & song. Its cool to cry by the way!

Next song "Dogs"!! YES..."Dogs" is my Favourite Pink Floyd Song EVER!!!!!!

Ahh.......another person brought to tears by a Pink Floyd composition! I have been there brother. I am 67 years old and have the entire Floyd collection. I have had their music in my entire life. Pink Floyd is a rare group of true musicians and hence a lot of their compositions are of an orchestral nature. I am just now discovering you two and will say you both are genuine souls.

Such a beautiful song !!!!!!!!

I am glad I lived to see this.

Andre, that was beautiful.......Pink Floyd goes into your soul and we all go along for the journey! They are always an 'experience'; fantastic reaction from both of you!!

High Hopes is a song of indescribable beauty. David Gilmour knows how to make his guitar talk and even make you cry and the lyrics are not exactly irrelevant, but they have some really deep messages that make you think at least, and move you to tears in some of his songs. You should react to "on the turning away", a song with a very powerful message and a legendary solo. "Mother", "Time" and many, many tracks that will never be forgotten because they are wonderfully timeless.

Really enjoying these Pink Floyd videos from PULSE reactions, you 2 are so genuine, I would love to see you do "shine on you crazy diamond" from pulse

“Why does Pink Floyd make me feel this way? - Because you are human!

R.I.P. Richard WRIGHT

👍👍👍 Absolutely love your channel. I don't know if it's in the blood but I agree with so many of your feelings and interpretations. My Dad came from Oliwa, Gdansk which is why I mentioned, "blood". I think so much as he did. Anyway, once again love your reactions and it's lovely to hear the Polish accent again since my Dad passed away. Thank you.

This music shaped my youth 😅

One of my all time favorites

Not sure if anyone has put this in the comments before me but David Gilmour's wife Polly wrote the lyrics to this song. I feel confident that I can speak for other Floyd fans when I say that when you hear one of their songs and it renders you inarticulate and feeling dumbfounded, you are exactly where you should be. That's the intent of the music...to transport you to a different space and time using a soundscape that they set in place from the first note of the song. So those feelings of not being able to comprehend how this music is effecting you, don't worry, you are among friends that understand exactly that feeling.

Fantastic reaction my dear polish friends I myself find Pink Floyd goes right into your soul with every song and rips at your emotions in a good way I have been a Pink Floyd fan since their inception in 1965.🇬🇧👍👏👏👏

It's Ok to cry or want to cry with a pink floyd song like this, it reminds me of my university days, and it brings me to tears at times, if not every time. It just pulls you inside yourself and explodes outward again like a wave of emotion. just the mastery of these musicians who found the key to the portal of the universe and opened it for us all!

What a masterpiece
