Crosby and Nash add a fabulous back up performance, when you have those guys as your back up singers ,, it says something about the song .

[@5891jonathan]

David Gilmour is a genius not only for what he plays but also what he doesn’t play. He puts so much air and space into his music. It’s a beautiful thing to hear.

[@kingary]

He's not flashy, but he simply plays all the right notes in all the right places and as you noted, knows when to let silence speak.

[@mrodg88]

David Gilmour plays the guitar with more emotion by not touching the strings than most guitarists when they're fretting the strings and playing notes.

[@mikeharry1799]

As the saying goes... (at least in my circles) It's easy to play Pink Floyd.... it's difficult to play Pink Floyd welll...

[@lightsideofthemoon13]

He knows how to make what he's playing breathe.

[@Zaraki88]

He creates anticipation

[@rickcarioti6746]

Pop stars are all about their image. David is about the music

[@ssacra22]

And to have Crosby & Nash of one of the most iconic folk groups of the 1960's and 70's, Crosby, Stills & Nash. To share the stage like this was BRILLIANT

[@Mr.Thermopyle]

Another suggestion for you is "Echoes" from the Gdansk concert, it was Rick Wrights last perfomance of Echoes ... absolutely genius performance ...

[@mondeoman1954]

A perfect demonstration of how David can hold an audience spellbound while he stands alone in a spotlight with his guitar. Love your reactions, I always look out for more...

[@capetowntrikeman]

You DEFINATELY have to listen to the studio version...a true masterpiece.

[@kevinturner2307]

David Gilmore is on his own planet when it comes to guitarists. His style takes u to another world. The best ever

[@josedanielpaezvillalobos2019]

I recommend listening to the studio version and watching the video, it's impressive and moving

[@FadyHelou-ft2tp]

Each time when David Gilmour plays guitar is telling us a story, his guitar tells us to join the perfect emotion at each time.

[@henryviii6341]

never seen this collaboration before. Thanks you

[@roadkill7314]

There are a lot of fabulous guitar players but none of them can touch your soul like this man. He's always been my favorite guitar player.

[@andreaswandrey9004]

David Gilmour's guitars can talk, cry and laugh. For me he is still the greatest guitarist in the music world. I wish you both a lot of fun with his music. 👍

[@mab.8798]

and the beauty of it is that you can play this 1000000 times and it will feel the same every time.....

[@TheFremenBlue]

The only way I can describe the "Gilmour Effect" (really, the "Pink Floyd Effect") is that the music resonates with your soul. This is why you feel so emotional. I can't explain it either. Shine On!

[@kelleewolfe2834]

Oooohh.... I knew this was going to be good! Love Crosby Stills & Nash!

[@johnpbh]

Over two nights I have spent nearly 3 hours in your company and enjoyed every single moment. Your reactions are perfect. They just show how you feel about the music. And let's e honest, what we all feel about the music who KNOW. Keep on rocking...!!

[@thomasp.3796]

David Gilmore can make a guitar talk, cry, whisper, shout, plead, and console. He is not the fastest, the loudest or the most technically proficient, but he can evoke emotions with his playing like no other.

[@963460]

The gentleman on the saxophones Mr. Dick Parry was actually on the 1974 record Wish You Were Here Bravo 👏 ❤

[@jim5247]

also DSOTM

[@grelch]

Happy that you reacted to this version. Not many reactors listen to this version. It is unspeakably beautiful.

[@RyanMovingViolationz]

Crying is the appropriate response!!! 😭😭😭😭😭♥️

[@melaniezette886]

I feel lucky having loved PF for more than 50 years now and seeing young people reactions. This music is a gift for our lives.

[@Dieselfu]

They write a story and then interpret the feeling of the story with music, the intensity, and the passion of what they are saying. This is why music moves us.

[@Andy-Capp]

My personal preference is to listen to the Studio versions first. The studio production is amazing.

[@n3wsymtl]

You quickly went to the top of my list for music reactors. You guys get it. Keep going, you'll reach many more suscribers :)

[@donfite9269]

This is a nice "short" version. But I would like to see your reaction to all nine parts of the studio version. Because it is the best musical masterpiece ever recorded. Great reaction again.

[@HappyAitch]

Yes the studio version is without compare, going to be played at my funeral 😁

[@strummer3162]

Could not agree more. The studio version is a masterpiece, which I know sounds redundant when that word applies to so much of their music, but it is really something magical to listen to.

[@angelagraves865]

I wish more reactors would listen to pts 6-9.

[@HappyAitch]

@@angelagraves865 I agree, it’s so good 😊

[@harlanginsberg7269]

Hey guys you should mention Richard Wright also from Pink Floyd is on the organ, piano, and synths at that show. Enjoyed the reaction.

[@drhust1955]

Love Rick Wright RIP Syd Barrett

[@smilerpink]

David Gilmour’s guitar tone is unmatched. This song a prime example. Makes it sing.

[@thenote2367]

You said perfection. Get ready for even more perfection. You MUST react to live version of HIGH HOPES from "LIVE in Gdansk " concert with full Baltic Orchestra. Surprise from 2 different string instruments. Don't want to ruin the surprise. Get your tissues ready for the tears. Gilmour will be mentioned next to the classical greats in the future

[@VMIHATER]

David is a genius of "emotion through strings".

[@reptarshane]

You two crack me up! I've felt like that about Pink Floyd since I was a kid and my dad played their albums. 46 years later, I'm still listening.

[@mikefetterman6782]

All great guitarists will tell you, it is all in the meat of the fingers. All the nuances come from the touch of the fingers and the muscle/skin/and bone in the touch.

[@terrynorman9622]

Love your reaction!!Your emotions are so authentic, I can see tears in your eyes which is showing true feelings! David Gilmour is a rock legend. Still going strong at77years old or should I say young. Truly an amazing performer and musician!

[@ShaneMccormick-d8d]

He’s a special man once in a lifetime we get someone special

[@thenote2367]

You asked, is it him or is it a special guitar ? Well, Bob Ezrin, The Wall album producer, famously said:" David has the best hands in the business. You can give David a ukulele and he can make it sound and sing like a Stradivarius". nuff said.

[@user-tb9dx9mg2njsb]

David is the greatest at playing emotion. Love you guys for doing what you do❤

[@edwardrutledge2765]

Gilmour is understated rock genius. He’s always eschewed guitar flamboyance, instead delivering managed excellence. One of the greats.

[@MrPolleyr]

I watch you two…..and you could be my next door neighbours. I love your honesty and your hearts. You help me understand why Pink Floyd effects me, the same way they effect you. So I don’t feel so embarrassed that I cry, and I am amazed, and I search for words to explain how they touch my soul. Thank you❤️

[@tommythompson9565]

My first time seeing this performance. While studio versions are always best, when it comes to Pink Floyd, there is not much of a letdown. This performance surprised me. It shouldn't have, but it did. The vocals stood out. The sax playing was superb. I appreciate y'all's reactions. Dominika's emotional immersion into Floyd's music is completely understandable, and doesn't come off as fake or over reacting. I remember listening to Pink Floyd's albums back when they were first released and being blown away as a pre- to young teen. Listening with headphones was transporting. This album is fabulous. It has a heavy undertone to it for obvious reasons, but it sounds incredible. My Saturday nights were sometimes spent alone in my bedroom, laying back on the bed with Bose headphones on, listening to one entire album after another. A Pink Floyd album was usually one of my choices, especially as I got older and more PF albums were released. Occasionally an entire Saturday was taken up with this practice. Got away from the partying lifestyle. Y'all's channel is one of my go-to reaction channels at the end of the day. Stay cool, and keep on r'actin .

[@jim5247]

FYI: when the band was recording this at Abbey Road Studio . A person came in and stood there watching then record the "wish you were here" album. No one recognized it was Sid , they hadn't seen him in yrs. . some cried. can't wait for you to here Dave is a person will have friends play with same concert David Bowie. A street music in Italy on the street invited to play wine glass in a song that recorded that way

[@joeyboo1243]

Love it guys but here’s a Pro Tip. Listen to the studio version of this song.

[@lena-mariaglouis-charles7036]

This is why every guitar wants David Gilmour for Christmas! He's a Musical Genius.

[@MerchantOfAlba]

Agreed 👍

[@philipkudrna5643]

This was only an „extract“ of the whole piece, the Pulse Version has even more parts…!

[@DarthVader-km6ku]

What a beautiful and touching reaction. It is so uplifting to see someone discover the genius of this band for the first time and be so honestly affected by it. I have been listening to them since 1967. I was lucky to see them for my very first concert. I have seen them play live seven times. This band and very few others managed to bridge the gap between cultures. Profoundly affecting people from Europe, America, Asia, Australasia, South America and Africa. The passion shows through.

[@robertwatson2823]

I have been listening to Pink Floyd for over 50 years and I still can't explain David's guitar playing either. But with time I learned to stop trying to explain it, but instead just sit back and enjoy it and where he takes me. Just absolutely beautiful music!! So glad to see you both enjoying it so much. I listen to these guys every day!!

[@flubblert]

Syd Barrett did not die in the sixties. He had a mental breakdown in the '60s and was replaced by David Gilmour. He became a recluse. Syd died in 2006 at the age of 60. The same year as this concert.

[@MerchantOfAlba]

Thank you for the info!

[@flubblert]

@@MerchantOfAlba 👍 the song mourns his mental state, not his death. Love your Floyd reactions!! "Now there's a look in your eyes, like black holes in the sky" - Pink Floyd

[@pippafinland]

I would pay sooo much to see Pink Floyd live - laying in a comfy chair with a glass of wine with like-minded people. Being hypnotized and healing my soul. ❤ Love your reactions. You've got big hearts and music in your souls. 😍

[@kc.brinkman]

I think you are being jealous with what I'm going to tell you........... I saw them live at the pulse world tour and it was f@#iing awesome. 😊

[@tommc3622]

I, too, saw them in '94. It was and is the most incredible concert of my life. That said, I have seen Brit Floyd 4 times now, and they are a STELLAR cover band. If they're in your town, it's as close as you can now get to the real deal, and I highly recommend them.

[@bighousegroove]

He honestly could have called this "Pink Floyd" if he wanted to. This performance has original PF keyboardist Richard Wright, the amazing Dick Parry who played sax on Dark Side of the Moon and Wish You Here, as well as Guy Pratt who replaced Roger Waters when he left the band in the 80s. I can't tell if John Carin is also there on keyboards or not, but either way, this is essentially later day Pink Floyd without Nick on the drums. But whatever, it's amazing and Crosby and Nash were a nice touch on this.

[@StevenMichals0812]

Graham Nash and David Crosby are two of the best singers in the world. Sadly, we lost Crosby just a few months back.

[@toniyoung5131]

I've loved their harmonies forever.

[@sandercohen5543]

The drone notes of the synthesizer is what makes the vibe most of the time, during these long guitar sessions. That, coupled with some moments of silene - which become more powerful because the sound is so otherwise full - and you get something very special.

[@jessrodriguez9160]

Thank you Andrei and Dominika for doing this reaction. I do agree with some of the other commenters that the studio version is probably the best rendition so please do yourselves a favor and listen to it alone sometime. I recommended this because I believe it shows David at work in his prime live. Plucking every note perfectly. He is a very gifted person. I was concerned that Dominika was going to a sad place there for a minute, but then David superhero and his band of musicians came through to save the day.

[@christopherhuot2826]

David feels the music like no one else 😅

[@StanislavSefcik]

Barrett is my favourit Artist mire then 40 Years .. and his Pictures and Cats 🙂 too.

[@crabbitwife5463]

Love your Floyd reactions. You feel the same as me. Emotional, awestruck, mystery, sad, beautiful, profound.

[@ShaneMccormick-d8d]

Davis said in an interview that this guitar gifted him this song. This is my favorite guitar.

[@spartakdauti9783]

Best version of this song is on Delicate sound of thunder tour 1990 .

[@lightsideofthemoon13]

Both of you are 1000% correct. There's Gilmour then there's everyone else. Love to watch more Pink Floyd fans start their journey. You two make a nice couple.

[@berndwolfram451]

The complete gdansk concert...awesome

[@kennethhickey8241]

this concert from beginning to end is just like this feeling you have with shine on keep going

[@richardbeaton7324]

❤ Yes there are other guitarists , But No one has a feel like David , Dominika is so right , Lovely reaction guys ! :)

[@mondeoman1954]

How good must music or a performance be to bring such emotion as tears?

[@aaronherbison7316]

Both David Gilmour and Mark Knopfler (Dire Straits) have similar ability to make there guitar pierce your heart

[@calvinheadley5218]

If you are careful, and listen very closely... You can here the very vibrations of the strings as he plays them. He takes you to that depth of feeling. Becuase simply put, the notes and the vibration of the strings are finding a harmony with your very soul and you cannot help but be transported to his vision.

[@SimonMcAllen]

Hi. Enjoy your reactions. To me they are genuine emotions you display as opposed to the faux reactions on a lot of these sites. Can't believe someone has not suggested "On the turning away" from the first live album "A delicate sound of thunder". For my money, it contains the best Gilmour solo this side of Comfortably numb. The song will have you both in tears as the alruistic nature of the lyrics become clear, combined with the melody and stellar musicionship from the band. Enjoy.

[@jonathansmith3742]

This is a great version. I was lucky and caught this tour in 2006 at Radio City. Thank You!

[@glenmorris6539]

And on the 5th day god created David Gilmour.!!!!🙏🎸

[@jsmoor4988]

The MASTER of few and special notes 🤘🎸🤘

[@Kessen1973]

I love David Gilmour, extraordinary guitarist (among the best ever for me), but I don't forget Roger Water (visionary and absolute genius always in my opinion), he wrote most of Pink Floyd's lyrics, as well as composing the music together with David Gilmour, Rick Wright and Nick Mason

[@longfootbuddy]

man, its a crime to get old.. but they say you wake up to a shining glory after you die

[@mikefetterman6782]

That is Dick Parry on the saxophone.

[@BikerGordo]

Just magical. I think we should recognise the genius compositions of these performances. Pink Floyd is fairly unique in the way they usually perform a song, of course aided by wonderful instrumentalists. Begin with a building musical journey, then launch into verse and chorus, then finish with a long instrumental crescendo, with periods of harmonious backing vocals. Sucks me in every single time.

[@gwenierobinson]

This performance was amazing! Love that you two let your feelings show during your true, authentic reactions. If you haven’t heard the full, original album version of this song, you definitely should! This is my second favorite song of theirs, first being Wish You Were Here, more for nostalgic reasons. This song is an absolute masterpiece. Definitely check out the album version of Echoes as well. Then do live. Just discovered your channel tonight and I’m loving you guys so far. 🔥🤘🏼♥️

[@gistechrep3816]

This song, this experience is one of my favorites. You are right in thinking that you will undoubtedly hear this many more times in your life, and there are lots of great renditions of it, live, studio, with guest singers. Take them all in, it's an experience you won't ever forget.

[@colinregan7281]

David is a artist who paints pictures with sound, very few guitarists if any can do what he does IMHO.

[@vicentetelles828]

gilmour meu guitarrista preferido

[@TheBorderRyker]

You guys just get it. There aren’t words. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿❤️‍🔥🙏🏻

[@seangardner9884]

One thing that makes an amazing guitarist is being able to create distinct style or sound from an instrument that millions have played

[@MrSteveishere]

Wow, what a nice genuine reaction to one of the greatest guitarists of our time, this is a thought provoking tune, like a lot of their stuff...

[@kimthomassen3352]

Those two guys were David Crosby and Graham Nash from Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young. Another wicked band from the 60’s 70’s and 80’s. Not the same as Floyd but pretty amazing. In their own right

[@espenvippen]

The song was conceived and written as a tribute and remembrance to Pink Floyd founding member Syd Barrett

[@Rassskle]

David’s guitar skills are sublime, and like Santana’s, a continuation of the B B King style of blues playing via the great Peter Green who created the famous blues rock band named Fleetwood Mac who inturn became a famous POP band after Peter left them to live in mental institutions and rehab facilities. I’m sure other guitarists played like BB King before he did, but BB is the first one we know about....... playing slowly, with each note given its own tone and life span, and then using deliberate gaps to create better music....... the gaps become emotional notes of their own, using silence to build expectation.

[@unclemeat7310]

"I want to say shit" made me laugh out loud. Just found your channel, new subscriber.

[@JobyJonesJnr]

Shine on has to be in Pink Floyd's top 5 songs of all time 🎵

[@johnathanstruble1064]

Dude, if the beard stands up...That's Music!! Lol. Great reactions you two! ❤

[@terryodell9803]

Echoes from Gdansk and in any tongue from Pompeii next please 😁🤗🎶

[@ssacra22]

David Gilmour is a master of 'anguish' sound with the guitar. Stevie Ray was a master of blues guitar, Paco de Lucía was (one of) the master of Spanish Guitar. What makes these musicians great is they mastered their craft unique to them. Yes, there are others, but there's only one David Gilmour, and one Stevie Ray Vaughan and so on.

[@gliebzeit]

"They look like one of us and it makes it even more special." Dominica, so very true! Thank you for your reaction video ... and both of your comments and rapport with each other. Oh, in this performance, hearing Dick Parry playing his section and fading out while still blasting out those notes until the full fade out - sublime!!!

[@StanislavSefcik]

more 😃

[@johanbisschop6271]

Roger Keith "Syd" Barrett (6 January 1946 - 7 July 2006) was an English singer, songwriter, and musician who co-founded the rock band Pink Floyd in 1965. This for your information - In the meantime David Gilmour had joined the band. This became a long story of love and envy between Roger W. and David G. Time will judge, but at least David does not express this anxiety and fear that haunting RW. In the end, their heritage will last forever.

[@jean-pierredelboy1627]

How about a reaction to the song of David with his 18 years daugther Romany in 2020 , "Yes, I have ghosts". Greetings from Peru, you give me so much happiness with your videos

[@victorstefanovsky6902]

On keyboards is Pink Floyd’s Rick Wright who died of cancer in 2008

[@jeremygray1331]

This may be Pink Floyd’s best song (and that’s saying something). Musically and lyrically brilliant combined with the emotional tribute to the band’s former leader Syd hence [S]hine on [Y]ou Crazy [D]iamond.

[@guyveilleux8421]

Love from Québec

[@EmilianoSoravia]

I'd like to point out that this song (like all the songs by Pink Floyd in that era) has born from an idea of Roger Waters who wrote the lyrics as well. This doesn't take any credit away from David Gilmour who's one of the greatest musical geniuses out there and my favourite guitar player. My point is that Pink Floyd's music is the result of that mix of musicians and not solely of Gilmour.

[@derekdamms7380]

DOMINIKA, IF YOU WANT TO LISTEN TO DAVID GILMOUR'S VOICE THERE ARE PLENTY OF INTERVIEWS OF HIM ON KZbin

[@PREPERMIKE2012]

Here is what I suggest going foreword as i hope you do with Pink Floyd and that is to considder listening to their albums in order from Oldest to Newest. I say this becasue in my opinion most if not all of their albums are based on a theme. The flow of one song to another is really impactfull so it is important to listen to the albums in full. I make this comment not after this video but when I watched your reaction to "Another brick in the Wall" video (That was a clip from the movie made about the album "PINK FLOYD THE WALL") The Movie is well worth a watch AFTER you listen to the full album. Another thing for me that makes Pink Floyd different or in its own way Iconic for many people is that the feeling people get from their music. As you have stated in not so many words that you were lost or have no words about a song, do not feel bad but that is what most people feel. The long intros and profetic Lyrics along with hypnitic skill and musicionship by all members of the band put us all in some ways uneasy place and dig deep into an individuals immagination and most people thing of a different place so no wrong answers. Go with what you feel. I think for me rather than looking at newer music it may be better to dive deep into 60's and 70's music to see the changes or differences from todays music. The last thing I have to say is to stay away from MTV or any Music Videos from that erra as they are not presented as the songs should be. They take away from the Music and the artists as a whole and I think just avoid any Official Music Video. Stick to live performances and Actual Albums from artists. As well is also good to know and tell about the Artist in Question (so research just abit before you do your reaction). If its a Band like Pink Floyd when did they form and or when did they break up, names of the members of the Band and what instruments they played. If a specific song who wrote the song are just three categories that will help you know the artist and have more information to talk about in your videos. Hope that helped.

[@Greyhound53200]

For me it's not so difficult to describe. It simply is witnessing art being created.

[@Jeraumina]

Shine on you crazy diamond est un des plus grands chefs d'oeuvre de Pink Floyd, ici c est l interpretation de D.Gilmour, mais faudrait qd meme pas occulter Waters et Wright dans la composition de ce morceau.

[@salvatoremesa]

You two give me a lot of peace. I love Amélia but her husband is a great person. Whenever you react Pink Floyd, I'm with you
