One of Gilmour's most beautiful solos, and the lyrics are as relevant today as they were when written. Rick's keyboard and the backing singers elevated it to the stratosphere. Just wonderful.
Ha! MEEE TOOO! I waited in line for HOURS to get tickets each time! 1989… maybe 1988 - ha no matter it was (every time) amazazazazzzing! Pink Floyd is a foundation of my life’s soundtrack! I’m actually time traveling back to a moment (in the high seats) but blown away by the lasers the pig flying through the stadium and FEEELING every beautiful moment! RIP to my beautiful,friend Leland! A very shy and quiet guy with red hair (yes, a mulllet) I was a super talkative (annoying) girl that sat next to him in science our sophomore year - he finally relented and we became the VERY BEST IF FRIENDS! Haha I didn’t know I annoyed him so much until way later! We drove to San Francisco and had the BEST NIGHT EVER! He improved my u turn and I taught him (hilarious) how to remember that Wednesday had a d in it! So cool how the tiny moments that seem so insignificant become the gems 💎 we carry… and it’s the music that threads all of them into a warm blanket… if I could make a quilt of these… ahhhhh… (ok a completely different quilt from watching “the wall” at the midnight movies-- only the “old “ people know what I’m talking bout… We maybe “old” … but sooo young as we listen … maybe that’s just me? 🤷♀️ idk 🥰
@@Soibottleditup that was the craziest time... you'd wait for many hours, or camp out over night, get your tickets, and learn the show had sold out in an hour. but it was such a part of the experience, hanging out with people with the same taste in music, seeing them again at the concert... those were really good days...
@@johnmorgan7262 it really depended on the venue. I saw them at the CNE a couple of times, and as I recall, tickets were gone in 57 minutes for one of the shows. Me and three friends camped out on the sidewalk, with about 200 other people, in front of Sam the Record Man downtown, which is where Ticketmaster was. For a show in Detroit, a friend camped out, was in the middle of the line to get in to Ticketmaster the next day, and was the last person to get tickets there.
I envy you, I am a big fan but missed to go to any of their concerts or Gilmours solo concerts. Not sure if Gilmour will do a live tour again, loved the CD live in Gdansk Poland. One of my favourite albums is Davids first solo album called David Gilmour, check it out you will not be disappointed., all songs are great.
@@geraldwoodruff3494 I wish everyone could have attended Pink Floyd live, and Queen with Freddie Mercury vocals.I also attended Ozzy Osbourne with Randy Rhoads on guitar - Blizzard of Ozz tour.
I was a headbanger in the mid 80's but liked Pink Floyd. Then I saw then live in New Haven CT. Then I fkn loved Pink Floyd. They are next level musicians and entertainers. Even their light show is second to none. Legends 💪
The craftsmanship of their songs is astounding nothing is rushed and one magnificent sound builds on the next. No guitarist pulls more feeling out than Gilmour. Unbelievable
I was at the Earl's Court Pulse concert and you are exactly right, I kept looking around at the crowd and it was amazing, people weren't jumping about cheering instead they were just sat there staring at the stage trying to take it all in like they were transfixed. The entire concert, it was just unreal, surreal. Sadly they didn't do this song at Pulse, it's one of my favourites and I would have loved to hear it live.
1 song at Pulse that people stood was "Run Like Hell". Fans know that P.F. is music you sit and listen not just hear. At home lights out headphones and a big fatty
I had the rare opportunity to see David Gilmour live in 2015. It was an experience in music that description fails to give a fair representation. Truly something special that I feel blessed to have been witness to.
I saw Pink Floyd in 1980, "The Wall" concert, it was the most incredible, phenomenal performance I've ever seen, of any kind, in all my 68 years on this planet! Simply astounding!
I saw my first live concert in the 60's and like to think I've seen most of the so called greats. These guys took you to another level. You left their concerts feeling emotionally drained. In a nice way. I very much doubt you will ever see their like again.
I had the honor to see them a few times life - and at the end of every concert as the lights in the arena turned on and realize - this is over I thought: no yet i have to go back in normal ife - i don´t want to ^^
YESSSSSS -- I was at PINK FLOYD LIVE in Indianapolis Indiana USA at the HOOSIER DOME back in the early mid 90's. Tickets were given to me as a Birthday gift. PINK FLOYD was my favorite for years before I ever went and they are still my NUMBER #1 band of all time. There were ABSOLUTELY AMAZING
I saw Dark Side and Wish You Were Here. Nothing, compares. I’ve seen Led Zeppelin, Derp Purple, the Stones, The Who, Dylan, Yes , the Eagles, Queen, ELP, Wishbone Ash, Doobies etc. all in the 70’s and those two concerts were the best ever. It wasn’t just music, it was a life changing experience…
I love everything about Pink Floyd. The sound. The concerts so amazing visually. But I really love watching David play. As a very mediocre player seeing how he does things. He makes so many different sounds without a huge box of pedals. His use of the Tremolo bar. And in this video, at 11:15 he does a small single tap with his right hand middle finger on the fret. Classic David. Not flashy. Its minimalistic. He never overdoes anything.
I saw this concert at Ohio State back in 1988. I saw the Pulse Tour 17 times in America and in London. They went on tour in 1994 just as I was getting out of the Navy. I heard The Division Bell Live for the first time in Concert in Houston. I bought the CD the next day and played in while driving across the country following Floyd. That CD is in my car CD changer in the car today. Edit: The last time I saw Richard Wright and David Gilmour play live together was in was in 2006 in Gdansk Poland. Once I heard that Rick passed away, I knew right then I would never hear my favorite song played live again…Echoes.
I am lucky that I'm old enough and can say I have been to many Pink Floyd concerts. There is no Other concert like a Pink Floyd concert. I grew up following Pink Floyd from their beginnings and what a ride it's been. I guess one could say it was my beginnings too lol. When I first started to listen to Pink Floyd Syd was still part of the band, I know I just dated myself lol. That's OK because the sixties, seventies and eighties were a great time to grow up in and I had a blast. Pink Floyd was just a part of that, just another brick in that wall that made up my life. P.S. Not gonna lie it's been great fun to see the next generation discovering and also loving Pink Floyd, we from the past have found common ground with you from the present. That makes Pink Floyd timeless.
This is one of my favorites, and yes, I saw them live in Montreal on the Division Bell tour. The classy trio of PF backup singers adds so much to the soundscape. You almost don't want it to end.
I’ve been to 4 live shows, one of which was this tour. And yes, they are literally an amazing live experience (and I’ve seen many of the greats in rock history) Greatest band of all times
Ahahah! I made a comment thought it was 88-89 but you ARE correct!! It was 1987!!! Good god I should’ve done the math .. but c’mon … I hated math!! Hahaha but I. Loooooved going to concerts and saw Pink Floyd 3 times during that tour! Whoa!!! Every time BLOWN AWAY!
"I have seen this tour four times and the 1994 tour three times. Since then, I have been to around 40-50 concerts, but these tours still remain my favorite ones by a long shot. The production values were awesome, particularly during those years. There was an indescribable mystique about them- the sound quality, the compositions- I can't explain it. These concerts are etched in my memory forever."
It's nice to see contemporary appreciation of some of the finest musical works of all time. Each artist as well as the group as a whole display incredible musicianship as well as musicality. The depth of the lyrics never cease to amaze, especially considering how young they were when it was created
I am a classically trained musician in piano first, then guitar, and for fun bass. My mother was first chair in Boston Pops under Arther Fiedler before John Williams. I only say all that to say this... I wish I had written this song!!! Thank you for covering this. His (David Gilmore) blues hits me to this day. That kind of feeling knows NO trend! One of my favorite songs speaking as an Irishman. Just now subscribed. Please just keep doing what ya do. GO BOSTON BRUINS!!! 🍻🤟👏
Not only have I seen them live, as you asked... They were my first concert in 1975 for Wish You Were Here tour. Then I've seen every tour since, with this show twice.
I was 18 when I was lucky enough to see Pink Floyd in concert in 1994 , Div Bell Tour. Then in 99 I got to see an evening with Roger Waters. Then in 2006 Roger Waters N America tour . For all you young Floyd fans , when Roger does his last tour and he most certainly will , be sure to get a ticket ahead of time and do not miss it.
Hi Maggie. Yes, I was fortunate enough to see Pink Floyd on tour in May 1994 in the old Foxboro Stadium in Massachusetts while they were on the Division Bell Tour (a.k.a. PULSE concert), so it was a few years after this concert. This song, as you're probably already aware, was from the 'Momentary Lapse of Reason' album, and this was from that tour. And yes, when I saw them perform in 1994, it was an amazing experience! The best concert I ever attended. Great reaction!
I have seen Pink Floyd 3 times (with Roger Waters), Roger Waters (solo) and David Gilmour (solo). Each show was unbelievable. I have not seen this song performed.
I saw this tour in Providence, RI in 1987 and then twice in 1988 in Foxboro, MA on the stadium leg of the tour. Also saw them twice on the Pulse tour again in Foxboro in 1996. The show was beyond belief for that era and still a benchmark for all live shows to aspire to being. I've seen hundreds and hundreds of concerts over my 57 years and there are very few show I have gone to that have left such a strong lasting memory as those nights, especially the stadium shows. I can still picture the lights cutting through the fog on one night and the echo behind me sitting in the opposite end zone as the sound carried through the parking lot.(I had close seats the first night, I chose to be in the end zone the second night just to take in the entire spectacle of all the lights) The fact that was 30 years ago and these videos bring back those memories speaks to how special those concerts were. Funny thing is I can't remember what I had for breakfast two days ago but I can remember those details.
I love you all Absolutely best band ever EVER This is an amazing song to to bring peace and happiness in are lives We how important that word is WE WE ARE ONE PEOPLE WE ARE ONE NATION WE ARE FAMILY WE ARE BROTHERS WE ARE ALL SISTERS WE CAN DO AMAZING THINGS TOGETHER So stop the hate start the love please Go to someone today you would never go to and tell them hay I love you you'll be Surprise Don't give up on us WE LOVE YOU ALL
I've seen Pink Floyd many times live in concert. Especially during the 1987 and 1994 tours. I treasure each time. It's a journey and experience to say the least. It's something similar to a religious experience. Beautiful 💗
I saw this tour live in Providence, Rhode Island, also saw the Pulse tour at RFK Stadium. The keyboard Richard Wright is playing at the beginning is a Roland JX10, I've got one sitting next to my desk. They're a big influence on my music.
A David Gilmour guitar solo, very memorable. And yes it is very easy to zone out to this musjc, I know I have. Very good reaction Maggie. Interesting you said about being at their concert and not screaming and stuff, in an old interview; they mentioned about wishing the audience would be quiet while they played.
I saw this tour twice, once in Cleveland and then again in Pittsburgh. Then a few years later in Pittsburgh when they did the Pulse tour. The level of detail that is put into a Pink Floyd show is epic. First of all the musicians are on another level. Even the sound, lights and FX are over the top.
So heartfelt and sadly awesome. Makes one with anykind of good soul think a bit. Masterclass as always. All the in betweens that David does is gold to your ears. Solid gold. Great job reacting.
I saw this live in 1988 In Stuttgart. It was their Momentary Lapse of Reason tour and to this day the best concert I’ve ever been to. I’ve been to a lot of concerts and nothing compares to a Pink Floyd concert
What an amazing song. At 553 when they all sing in unison its so angelic to me. And the meaning gets me everytime. Great reaction. Keep the floyd songs coming
I may have been at this show. They filmed multiple nights at the Nassau Colosseum. I attended one of them. I remember thinking that, even if I was deaf, it was still worth the price of admission. I think it’s time to react to the NY based band Dream Theater, and their Juilliard trained keyboardist Jordan Rudess. The drummer, bassist and guitarist are Long Island guys who formed the band at Berkeley in Boston. The singer is a Canuck with some operatic training. Live performances from Radio City, Boston Opera House, or Tokyo’s Budokan are your best options. “Breaking All Illusions” in Boston is a fave. “In the Name of God” in Tokyo is very good. “Metropolis- Part 1” in NYC, accompanied by Orchestra, is also very good. Enjoy.
