Pink Floyd - The Great Gig In The Sky | FIRST TIME REACTION | PULSE concert 

Thank you for watching the video, It means a lot to me . I will leave this pinned message here to REMIND everyone that i do not have TELEGRAM and there is no GIVEAWAY. Those you see are bot scams . Keep yourself safe and know that I would not ask for your info.

The original with Claire Torry is a masterpiece. She was hired for an afternoon. Walked in the studio, chatted with the band to get an idea what they wanted and they really didn't say much except they wanted no words in the vocals. She improvised and recorded in two takes. Amazing story.

Imagine you have just been told that you are going to die. You go through a series of emotions from anger to acceptance. The ladies take you through those emotions.

Dark Side of the Moon still stands as one of the greatest albums ever made. A masterclass in how to seamlessly take the listener on a journey of emotions.

In May 2022, I was on a music cruise that Durga McBroom (the second woman to sing on this song) was performing on, along with her sister Lorilei. My cabin mate had to cancel attending at the last minute due to her sister's cancer treatments. I knew the McBroom sisters were particular favorites of my friend. By chance I saw the two of them on a very crowded deck and decided to ask them if they would make a little video massage for her. When I finished explaining what I wanted, Durga looked around at all the people on the deck, immediately took my hand and said, "not here, let's find a quieter spot." We walked for several minutes until we found an empty room and we filmed it there. This woman had been in Pink Floyd, and she treated me and my friend like we were the most important people in the world to her.

Sam Brown's vocals on this are legendary to me. She goes from little girl to woman and back again, I always have chills when hearing this and I always have to listen again!

Background singers were always important on Pink Floyd songs. The genius of this was giving the background singers the center stage.

As good as this is Bisscute, treat yourself to a listen to the original album version, all vocals by Clare Tory. She was given a quick idea of what the band wanted( no words but show the various stages of learning you are dying, Shock or Disbelief, anger, denial, bargaining, depression, then finally acceptance. By the way the spoken words were spoken by a member of the road crew-. "And, I am not frightened of dying, any time will do. I Don’t mind, why should I be frightened of dying? There’s no reason for it, you’ve gotta go sometime. I never said I was frightened of dying."

Sam's performance here just melts my brain.

I love that this is basically Pink Floyd, one of the most famous bands in history, playing back up band to a woman with an amazing voice.

Welcome to the greatest band of all time, Pink Floyd.

PULSE concert is the greatest concert ever in the history. Im hoping you react more songs from this concert.

It takes a lot of courage to cover this song after Ms. Torry's original performance. These ladies did a wonderful job and are to be applauded. Do listen to the original studio release, though. It's peerless.

Pink Floyd is unique in that their back up singers are not really back up. Their voices are layered throughout the live performances as truly part of the music.

The instrument David is playing is a console steel guitar. It's a type of slide guitar that's played by sliding a steel bar on the strings while plucking them.

Sam Brown. Friend and fellow ukulele player to George Harrison. Sang Horse to the Water at Harrisons memorial concert. Thankfully her 'lost' voice is slowly returning.

The blond back-up singer is Sam Brown. Sam was a solo "Pop Music" artist during this period and even had a #1 hit on the UK charts. Sam was offered an opportunity to perform with Pink Floyd in a back-up capacity and she jumped at the chance to play with them putting her own carrier in a brief hiatus. Such was the degree of respect that Pink Floyd held in the industry. The band took their name from two old black blues musicians from North Carolina, PINK Anderson and FLOYD Council. Just FYI.

Pink Floyd's Dark Side of the Moon Album is in essence about Death. An event that all of humanity is destined to experience at one point or another, in one way or another be it our own death or the death of a loved one. Depending on each individual's level of compassion and acceptance of death, persistent traumatic grief can cause us to cycle through the 5 stages of grief: denial, anger, bargaining, depression, acceptance. These stages are our attempts at processing change brought about by the traumatic loss of a loved one or the acceptance of ones own mortality and to protect ourselves while we adapt to our new reality. A reality that will be grounded in how well, or not, we managed through the 5 stages of grief mentioned above. Pink Floyd's Great Gig in the Sky is about such a journey. The opening lyrics start with denial and end with acceptance. Reaction ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Selection ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

This album is one where you have to put on headphones, dim the lights, lay down and listen all the way through…

Saw them in 1987 for the A Momentary Lapse of Reason Tour and when Rachel Fury sang that first section, I had goosebumps running up and down my arms.

PinkFloyd may be the greatest band ever. Thank you.❤️👍

Pink Floyd was unique in so many ways… and their music was loved at the time and stands the test of time!

You got it. It was their way of communicating so much feeling with no lyrics. The instrument is called a "steel guitar" or a "slide guitar". It is used a lot in Country music but of course in the hands of David Gilmore it can sound out of this world. Another great reaction Bisscute! 😗💕, PJ

5:23 "If you hear someone whispering your dying" First time reactors rarely hear that lyric.

I have selected this as a piece to be played at my funeral. Nuff said.

hey bisscute, om so glad you checked this out, and at the same time i write this with a sence of sadness.. the first singer on this take was Sam Brown, a singer i grew up with, listening to her solo albums, on witch David Gilmour did guest appearences , She is best known for her hitsong "stop!", look it up, you will love it. The reason i got sad is that in 2007 she lost her singing voice. She had a cyste removed on her vocal cords, but she never got her singing voice back, so tragic. One of the best vocalists outhere imho.

How lucky are we to have such talented musicians bringing us music like this to listen to!! And there is a lifetime of great songs out there to discover. I think this one took you by surprise Biss. . . . Thanks for your reaction. Good job!

Last Saturday I spent 3 hours at a Pink Floyd Experience concert with my son and two of his friends. This tribute band has covered Pink Floyd for 30 years. During the intermission, I said to one of the friends that I knew they were performing this song and I hoped that they wouldn't stuff it up. They didn't, and actually received the most applause that evening.

Mind blowing is the perfect term to describe this performance. I do agree with everyone and check out the original version but this performance is amazing as well. Love the reaction Biss!! ❤👏🔥

I love this version and it’s really great, but it can never match the original sung by Clare Tory on the original album, in my opinion. It was an iconic moment in musical history that can never be repeated. I’m so grateful that moment was captured and recorded so that we could all hear and experience it for generations. Thank you for reacting to this version as well, you were brilliant!

I _LOVE_ this song! It makes me cry almost every time I hear it.(the original) I have requested to have it played at my funeral. Such a beautiful song.

The instrument you're liking at the beginning is a pedal steel guitar. It's mostly used in country music, but the way its used in this song is spectacular.

I wasn't checking your channel for a while... "Great Gig In The Sky" has led me here again, and I see... you're keep getting more bisscute ❤ Wish you all the best!

From goosebumps to tears , then pure joy . . . what a journey 🗽

That is what is called a lap steel guitar David is playing, the Ladies are portraying in raw emotion the transitions into leaving life, stages of dying, fear, denial, anger, resistance and finally acceptance, Awesome stuff indeed.

The strange thing about Pink Floyd .... not particular that song ... they manage to give you goosbumps, taking you places, boost your emotions to a point of explosion, but at the same time, it makes you feel so peaceful, so calm and so relaxed, like you are in some kind of meditation process, listening to them.

I'm really glad you had enjoyed. Was great to watch you having so much emotions.

This is a great, live version from the amazing Pulse Concert, those ladies were awesome when I saw them. But you need to hear the original with Claire Torrey on vocals, it is the audio they will hear as we explore the cosmos! Do Dark Side of the Moon, it is part of your musical education. Enjoy! 🎵🎸🎤🎹🎷🎶.

What a masterpiece!!! And your reaction is amazing! You are so beautiful!

That's a pedal steel guitar. He's playing the neck of the guitar by sliding a glass tube in his left hand and picking the notes with his right. Basically, its a guitar set into a table so you can play it face up - sort of like Jeff Healey plays - my favorite part of the video is when David Gilmore stops playing near the end and just watches the last singer finish up.

My new fave Bisscute reaction ❤

Your reaction was genuine. Thank you.

The singers are (in order of appearance): Sam Brown, Durga McBroom, and her sister Lorelei. They do it very well, but there's nothing like the original version with Claire Torry.

The intro was so deep.. a travailing prayer... from the gut, the soul... lovely.. Love your reaction Bisscute

I loved your reaction -- you are a treasure, so honest and true.

Fantasic reaction! I am really pleased you finally got to this one. Pretty much everyone has the same reaction when they hear it for the first time but imagine what it was like to hear it when it was first released. As an oldie, I did! This track and the Album were ground breaking, there had been nothing like it before and IMHO nothing like it since. That's why it's in the top ten all time best sellers. I was also at one of the 1994 PULSE concerts at Earls Court. I believe this was the one broadcast on 20th October 1994. What many reactors to this may not realise is that it was not just one concert at Earls Court but a series of 15 (yes, fifteen!) done as 6 consective from the 12th to the 17th, 5 consecutive from 19th to the 23rd and 4 consecutive from the 26th to the 29th. How they were still standing at the end of all that is beyond me. The first concert was cut short due to a seating collapse. I have heard lots of you youngsters say they wonder what it was like to be there and experience it live. I can tell you that for me, it was the best concert I have ever been to. It was so much more than a concert. It was a total, audio-visual, sensory experience that flowed in a carefully choreographed way from one track to another and of course with the whole of Dark Side of the Moon performed exactly as per the album. Earls Court is a massive venue with great acoustics so the size and participation of the audience added to the electrcity of it. It was a truly great thing to have experienced and I feel very lucky to have been there. By the way, the blonde lady in the backing singers is Sam Brown. She is the daughter of Joe Brown who was a famous Rock and Roll/Skiffle/Rhythm & Blues artist in the early 60's here in the UK.

To feel it.....live. You feel it as much as hear it. My most memorable concert of all time. And I have seem some rather remarkable bands.

Just imagine, the original was all done by just one singer, taking you through all those emotions

The guiter you saw david gilmour playing was a slide guiter, you use a metal or wood or plastic tube on your fingers sliding it up and down while picking notes with your other hand and thats why it sounds so beautiful

the singer at the beginning It's Sam Brown. famous in the late 80s for her song Stop. Greetings from Chile!

David Gilmour plays a slide guitar in the beginning. In Fat Old Sun, he starts with an Spanish guitar and then continues with a slide guitar. It's a fantastic song,too.

Fantastic reaction to a spectacular performance! Also, your new fashion look is amazing! I did not want to minimize your screen so that I could type this!

Truly amazing reaction to such an amazing song, tune. Voice! Vocalarity. Voquaility. Mind blowing actually

It's worthwhile to also listen to the studio version from DSotM, and the live version off _"The Delicate Sound of Thunder"._

Very good from Spain, first of all I am using the google translator since my English is very bad. I watch your videos whenever I can and this is one of the best for being a Pink Floyd song. As you comment in the video there are 3 vocalists, right, each one sings a different tone, with a different mood... right? This song talks about death, about what a person feels when they leave this world, the first vocalist represents euphoria, ignorance of death. The second vocalist represents the fatigue fight of death and the third vocalist represents the victory of death and to stop suffering an intense fight with it. I hope everything is clarified, a big kiss from Barcelona (Spain).

Everyone who listens to it is almost crying by the end. Such an amazingly emotional song without one word spoken... props to Clare Torry!

hello from switzerland, a lot of what Pink Floyd has done is a masterpiece in its own way, "the greate gig in the sky" is no exception. imagine you have a song, you just say to the background singers, "sorry, we don't have any lyrics, make something out of it..." and a record label that's so stupid to put something like that on the market. The result, a song that is second to none and will remain unique for a long time to come. When a band understands how to do something like that successfully, then you know they belong to the top of those who write songs, make music. I really enjoyed your reaction, surprised but quickly gripped by the emotions, even if you didn't really understand what the song was about, I thought it was wonderful.

it's a Lap-Steel guitar he's playing with a slide!

the transition from life to death with the big wheel waiting from your arrival

I recommend the band Nazareth song This flight tonight 1975. The singer Dan McCafferty is insane and not recognised for all.

Bisscute, this is a short version or prelude to the next song, as the concert continues. Like your reaction to this..Amazing Reaction Bisscute you are a wonderful individual...❤❤😢😢

I get tears everytime I hears this you are absolutely beautiful with or without bangs :)

You’re a beautiful and wonderful young lady Biss! You’re one of my very favorite reactors! Much luv to you 🙂💯

Pink Floyd to me Is musical genius so different so perfect 😁

You're so great at this.x

Great reaction to a great song and band. No wonder you were having goosebumps. 😀😃😄😁

Amazing reaction little one 😊

Awesome great reaction beautiful Bisscute 👍

Great reaction Bisscute! The instrument you asked about is a lap steel guitar (also called a lap slide guitar). It's played with finger picks and a steel or glass bar that is slid up and down the neck.

The blonde female vocal is Sam Brown . She has a few solo albums. Had a hit in the 80's called Stop... inedible voice.

Interesting bit of info: the first vocalist is Sam Brown, whose mom Vicki Brown also sang with Pink Floyd but that was in the 70s.

think about this, the blonde is in her late 60's or early 70's at the time of this concert! She did the original recordings for this album in 1972 and the album was released March 1973.

In this song, the vocalist learns they are dying and then processes it. You picked up on the emotions of that process - well done. And the instrument is a pedal steel guitar. In the right hands, like this absolute master guitarist, it can be incredibly evocative. Thanks for your videos.

The singer on the dark side of the moon was clare torry

Sam Brown, one of the greatest female voices ever

they make it seem so easy but the amount of Breath and vocal control is amazing !!!!

The instrument that did something to you... OMG, you're gonna enjoy "One of these Days" from the same concert.

OMG - LOVE the BANGS on your face, so PRETTY!!!

Love the hair, oh and a great song! XD

It's an amazing performance no doubt, but for me, it pales in comparison the the Dark Side Of The Moon version with headphones and Clair Torry on vocals, which conveys the vocals of the entire song, where in concert they use 3 vocalists! It's a must-listen. One of the most brilliant and beautiful compositions of music in the last 50+ years.

PINK FLOYD In a nut shell.. "I don't know that instrument but it's doing things to me"

So sweet but yet so strong. Good qualities for music and people. Very sweet reaction. KEEP ROCKING. From a old but still strong man

STUDIO VERSION!!

That is Sam Brown. I was at this concert and it was a night I will never forget. Music like this will never be repeated.

The blonde woman singing this piece in the beginning (and actually most of the leading background vocals during the Pulse Tour) is no one less than Sam Brown, who in the late 80ies had a One-Hit Wonder in the Charts with the song „Stop“! And is you like the lap-Steel-guitar in this piece, you MUST listen to „high hopes“ of the same concert!

Beautiful Bisscute!

This is so great. I have never heard this before.

It's a slide guitar - laid horizontally it uses a metal slider to choose the notes. Very interesting approach musically - different way to express.

Your reaction @1:13 is all you need to know about Pink Floyd being any good. I was in the crowd when they played this live in Australia and pretty much the whole audience reacted the same way. Epic song, glad to see you finding some new music in your life for some inspiration!

And THAT is what an eargasm looks like!!!! 💗💗

I like your 'new' look Miss Bisscute, you look like a true Hard Rocking & Rolling / Heavy Metal chick. 👍👍🔥🔥🎸🎸🎶🎶🎵🎵

it's all the universal language of the heart!

Pink Floyd is a band with a lot of musical texture, I especially like this phase which is the 1993-94 tour called Pulce. The instrument used by guitarist David Gilmo is called a slide guitar.

Biss, u look so shine today. Good to have you here.❤

thanks for reaction

I think this is a representation of like the three steps,of dealing with death when it’s time.Damn Pink Floyd is so good.

Pulse is the only time I got to see Pink Floyd. It was in Oakland, CA.

At the beginning, he was using PEDAL STEEL GUITAR. It gives amazing sounds.

If you don't get goosebumps, you are a robot.
