FIRST TIME HEARING 'Pink Floyd - Mother' | GENUINE REACTION

[@williamwood5491]

The thing about Pink Floyd is that it's best to listen to the whole album. Each album is a journey. You're just dipping your toes in right now. Lol

[@willpatterson4866]

Thank you sir. People don't seem to understand this fact. It is so important that you remember the songs before and afterward.

[@Robin-cf9ts]

I work with a lot of people in their late teens and early twenties and I'm in my sixties. I think that due to apps like Spotify they listen to tracks. Where as back in the day we had no apps etc so brought albums that were made as a complete collection and an experience in of itself.

[@mikehawkins4752]

Without hearing the whole album it's hard to get the context of the songs by themselves.

[@davidlaws3582]

The wall is a concept album and you need to listen to it all the way through to understand the concept. There was a film made of it called The Wall which is worth a watch. Mother is about an overprotective mum looking after her dysfunctional son. The wall is a symbol of hiding away from society and not letting anyone in.

[@TXP2P69]

This times 1000000000000% You cant take part and without undersetting the whole. Its almost impossible to describe without listening to the whole. I would put this up against Queensryche. Very few band devote an entire album as a whole

[@rickiedeesnutz7318]

" there seems to be some kind if message here." Ya think? And just for giggles....youre listening to the greatest guitar player to ever live.

[@brianconlon4744]

You’re listening to a small fragment of Pinks descent as he builds his mental wall. Listen to the album start to finish. Do it as a reaction. Others have. I’ll listen to the whole thing with ya. 🤘🎸

[@Dogoodgetgoodkarma]

I agree!! It’s definitely a whole experience! I will listen with you as well!

[@kathystearns2491]

I'll listen to the whole album with you for sure!

[@mikehawkins4752]

Me too. I never get tired of it.

[@Nikki-l5p9y]

Me too. Although I would prefer the film version. Maybe even the film. I mean, I’ve seen it 30 some times, what’s one more.

[@mikeevans1625]

Glad to see you're enjoying Pink Floyd! As others have mentioned, this song is like a chapter in a book. It can be great on its own, but when experienced along with the rest of the book it has more context and weight. Briefly, The Wall is about an aging rock star named Pink who builds a metaphorical wall around himself to shield himself from the world. His father was killied in World War 2 when he was very young and his mother, as you quickly picked up on, becomes over-protective. Comfortably Numb saw Pink at an incredible low point, where a doctor is injecting him with some kind of stimulant to get him coherent enough to play a show. And backstory aside, the music is technically brilliant and Gilmour is a master at bending notes that send chills through the body. :)

[@Rolling_Ronnie]

And its semi-autobiographical (for Roger Waters).

[@paulwebster3417]

Roger is the son, David is the overprotective mother. This might be one of their deepest emotional songs because of the relationship between a mother and child.

[@CatherinePearl100]

When he says, “Mother did it need to be so high,” he’s realizing he’s getting more and more isolated behind this monstrous wall he’s built around himself - and a large number of those bricks were installed by her.

[@Outis2370]

You can learn so much from pink Floyd about life

[@Nosanku]

It's hard to fathom how perceptive those guys were as basically still kids. Just amazing talent and creativity. And to Mollyboy, as others have said, you have to sit down without distractions and watch The Wall.

[@johnbelcher7955]

I totally agree with everyone else! You really need to be listening to the whole album, I also think you should do this first by yourself in a quiet space, with the volume turned up!

[@ChristopherRobinson-l5v]

Get really really REALLY high… and watch the movie on full blast volume for the songs in a dark room on a really nice flatscreen tv. This song will never be “ok” to you again. The context matters A LOT. It’s my favorite Floyd song from my 3rd favorite rock band ever. Lyrically pure genius.

[@tlucas9798]

I don’t think you can even imagine, listening to this album from start to finish is life altering musically. Watching the movie as well.

[@garri5108]

Listen to The Lamb album by Genesis, also double concept album but poetically and musically richer like 10 times

[@hanspettersson504]

what a way to start my day 👀 you do your 'daily' Pink Floyd thank you MollyBoy ! ❤️

[@stephencollins5706]

The wall is a complete story picking songs out doesnt give the full effect of the story. There is always a soul wrenching guitar solo .

[@lisadianas6227]

You're smile says it all...😊

[@subnoizesoldier2]

If you’ve never seen Pink Floyd, the wall movie then you can’t understand the concept of the whole album. Truly one of the best pieces of work to ever come out of the music world.

[@tonyfeuerhelm]

I plugged this cassette tape in my work truck stereo and didn't take it out until it quit playing two years later. As the rock star loses his mind on the way to insanity as far as song lyrics go "Nobody Home" is my favorite part of the Wall album.

[@syoung1908]

This is like reading a book a random chapter at a time. It needs to be taken as a whole start to finish.

[@jonhenke1504]

Mother is just one song in a great big story told throughout the album "The Wall"! When you first hear the song you think it's about a little boy talking about his mom and his mom is a loving mother! However you have to dissect the lyrics a little bit and realize the mother is afraid because she's a single mothe and the main character pink, his father was killed in world War II when pink was a little boy! Lyrics like I'll help you build the wall, mom is going to put her fears into you and make your nightmares come true! All those lyrics are leading to an overbearing mother who's afraid to let her son go. She won't let him go out and make his own mistakes and grow up thus the lyrics she might let you fly but she won't let you sing! Just listen to it as a frightened single mother who won't let her son go. It's one of those tragic things with the mother not doing it on purpose she's just afraid! The very last line "mother why did it have to be so high"? He's talking about the metaphorical wall was so high it wouldn't let him escape so he could go out and make mistakes and grow up!

[@bardaghohio]

Love that you're trying to listen to the lyrics in these songs..."The Wall" is an album where you might even think about having the lyrics pulled up, just so you don't miss what they're saying. Another great "concept" album is "Dark Side of the Moon," which really should be listened to as a whole. Don't know if you've listened to RUSH, but, their album, "2112," is another outstanding concept album, as well as being musically incredible. Great reaction, as usual!

[@tkay4401]

Guitar solo from David Gilmour is excellent here. Just wish it was longer. Outstanding guitar solo.

[@knox123]

I enjoyed your reaction. This is one of my favorites in the PF canon. I was introduced to Pink Floyd in the mid 80s by west coast guys I met when I enlisted in the US Navy. I've been memorized by their music ever since. Also, you are truly adorable (I mean that in the least pervy way possible haha).

[@ErinSantos-s2w]

Pink Floyd. Best listened to in the dark, headphones, from the beginning! Each album is meant to be listened to from the beginning to the end They’re telling you a story.

[@nathanfrahm]

This is the song that told us what the album was about. Alienation, societal breakdown and questioning one's very existence...what is all about?

[@JAFO5661]

If you want to understand any of the songs from the Wall, you need to watch Pink Floyd The Wall The Movie, all the songs from the album are in the movie except one I think. But, the album really does tell a story which is best watched in the movie. It’s also a very awesome movie.

[@123vaporize]

I'm so glad you love the guitar; so do I

[@leah6680]

Is great to see a younger person enjoying older music love you channel ❤

It's all about the lyrics on this one

[@debnoel6721]

The Who did "Tommy-The Rock Opera"....this is PF's version of a musical story. The entire album has to be taken into consideration.

[@PhilPastor]

Great reaction, young man! As others have said this is a concept album, and really must be listened to from start to finish. Individual songs can stand up but lose their poignancy in the overall flow. Many PF albums in the 70s are concept albums, but The Wall is a true artistic masterpiece from Roger and his mates. Not only from the concept, but the musical components as well. Have fun!!

[@neillenet291]

You really need to do SHINE ON YOU CRAZY DIAMOND to really understand Pink Floyd

[@guitaroffthecuff-davids5528]

Yo dude. I'm goijng back to watch your older reactions. I got on the Molly train a little late, so I'm getting caught up. You are one of the best on YT at genuine and heartfelt reactions. Thanks dude. Stay awesome.

[@brianjohnston5221]

Absolutely beautiful song, great taste Molly👌

[@TheCaltonian]

Loving your Floyd reactions, I grew up on them. Modern day Floyd in terms of storytelling is a guy called Ren though, he is taking lyricism to another level and I'd love to see you reacting to something like Hi Ren, and the rest of his catalogue, This guy is an absolute genius mate,

[@Shilo-fc3xm]

Hey Mollyboy. What you need to understand.... and what you may well already understand, is that each song on The Wall needs to be absorbed in context with every other song on the album. It's a story. Watch the movie. It was made by Pink Floyd for the music so not bad advice as it otherwise may be.

[@Palumbo-v8t]

There's a message in this song!

[@treezelbub3064]

Watch the film, definitely. It's crazy

[@shan-2233]

David gilmour is so incredible !!! Love 💗 him so much . PF is deep. As mentioned before, need to listen to the whole album 💿 and listen to it well. It is a journey. It’s awesome.

[@steviesellers]

This LP has to be listened to from start to finish all the songs relate to The Wall he had to overcome in his life . Mother, School , Relationships, Fame and feeling like a failure

[@markklincewicz1425]

If you want some other stuff to check out, here's what I'd recommend: Led Zeppelin: Kashmir [live] Metallica: Master of Puppets System of a Down: Chop Suey Rage Against The Machine: Killing in the name The Doors: Riders on the Storm Slipknot: Duality And for the best guitar solos, you've already reacted to the best one (Comfortably Numb), but the next 2 best (IMHO) are: Lynyrd Skynyrd: Free Bird Dire Straits: Sultans of Swing I hope you get to hear one or two of them at least. Keep rockin'

[@scott3744]

My favorite song from 'The Wall', followed by Comfortably Numb 😎

[@juliemenzies6387]

I just know everyone is singing along to this!

[@vjvj4966]

Damn right !!!

[@TBaileyIII]

Pink Floyd is extremely popular with the 420 crowd, because they take you on a journey every song

[@sandrafazackerley9526]

You cant go wrong with any Pink Floyd track or album. Im busting to hear you react to another Led Zeppelin fave of mine. Ramble On is an absolute banger. Peace Out ✌️

[@coot1925]

Great reaction dude. The problem with concept albums like this is that it's like reading chapters of a book in a random order and then trying to make sense of it. The film "the wall" is worth a watch because you'll really understand the life journey of the character "Pink". I will say that it may leave you feeling a bit depressed, but in the words of Ron Weasley "it's bloody brilliant".

[@VacationStationTV]

Pink Floyd will always make your day better than bad. It will leave you but barely standing at times thinking of what could have been and what might be but it will be you behind the mask winking through the eye holes...

What videos are you watching? 🤣 I enjoyed Pink Floyd from the first song I heard

[@christinaweldon6088]

Consider watching the movie "The Wall". Basically its a video of the entire album, all of which tells a story. The imagery in the video gives each song deeper meaning.

[@sandydegen4603]

My FAVORITE Pink Floyd song! ❤

[@lakelanddentalarts]

"The Wall" and "The Final Cut" are two albums that you have to listen to the entire album to understand the context of individual songs, because all of the songs form a complete story. "The Wall" is a story about Pink's life, and his journey into self-medication followed by madness. Each song is a chapter of the story, with the chapters mixed up and you having to tie them together after hearing the whole story - a musical jigsaw puzzle. "Mother" is one of the cause-and-effect chapters of the story that explains how Pink's overprotective mother was who taught him to isolate himself (build a self-protective wall) by isolating/protecting him behind a wall that she built to keep 'danger' away from him. With some of Pink Floyd's music, trying to do a reaction to a single song is difficult because of lack of story-context that's important for that song's messaging. A single song can leave you confused about what the point/message of the song is; however, hearing the entire story grants the clarity to fully understand the context of the song. Pink Floyd's popularity stems from their story-telling as much as their music, and no other band is able to match their uniqueness in that aspect.

[@torrieshack1283]

Got to watch the movie. It will all make sense, all the songs from this album.

[@humboldtharry1289]

Waters is sooo good on bass, kinda funky.

[@charlieknight4829]

Pink Floyd songs tell a story. The beginning of this particular song is from the perspective of a child. Then it moves forward to the perspective of a young man who's met a young woman. Then it goes forward to an even different perspective from there. There are often multiple songs to the full story. You have to listen to the whole album!

[@mikehawkins4752]

This song seems to be about an over protective mom compensating for a father killed in war. Waters sings the first part and Gilmore the second, trading off back and forth. Great song.

[@caryd67]

“But without waffling, let’s get on with it”. My god that’s a refreshing change from the usual “without further ado” bulls**t. Let’s make Without Waffling the new intro 👊🏻

[@CoolCoyote]

now do the 1980 live version, david does a double solo in it epicness

[@angelagraves865]

I love this song. I love this whole album. The Wall more than any other Pink Floyd album is hard to understand without hearing the whole thing. Of course you can listen to it any way you wish, and I don't always listen to the whole album, and on the radio they'll play this song or Comfortably Numb or Hey You just by itself. Anyway, I'm very much enjoying your Pink Floyd journey. Their songs have long intros that are designed to put you into a certain mental and emotional state so that when the song drops it takes you for a ride. It's like a roller coaster, the slow creep uphill and then the sudden downward whoosh! Pink Floyd's music is really complex and you'll likely find yourself noticing things each time you listen that you missed before. Even 40 years after first listening to their music I notice new things. 🤘🏽💗

[@sheilahasson-uz7uk]

To understand the wall you have to listen from the first song to The last song on that album it tells a story of Rodger waters life

[@subnoizesoldier2]

The whole album is one long song it’s actually one of the best movies I’ve ever seen in my life

[@ericsandi6619]

'Pink Floyd- Welcome To The Machine"

[@rui4659]

Yeah man!!,

[@john_thorpe]

Pink Floyd’s the Wall is one of the most intriguing and imaginative albums in the history of rock music. Since the studio album’s release in 1979, the tour of 1980-81, and the subsequent movie of 1982, the Wall has become synonymous with, if not the very definition of, the term “concept album.” Aurally explosive on record, astoundingly complex on stage, and visually dynamic on the screen, the Wall traces the life of the fictional protagonist, Pink Floyd, from his boyhood days in post-World-War-II England to his self-imposed isolation as a world-renowned rock star, leading to a climax that is as cathartic as it is destructive. From the outset, Pink’s life revolves around an abyss of loss and isolation. Born during the final throes of a war that claimed the lives of nearly 300,000 British soldiers - Pink’s father among them - to an overprotective mother who lavishes equal measures of love and phobia onto her son, Pink begins to build a mental wall between himself and the rest of the world so that he can live in a constant, alienated equilibrium free from life’s emotional troubles. Every incident that causes Pink pain is yet another brick in his ever-growing wall: a fatherless childhood, a domineering mother, an out-of-touch education system bent on producing compliant cogs in the societal wheel, a government that treats its citizens like chess pieces, the superficiality of stardom, an estranged marriage, even the very drugs he turns to in order to find release. As his wall nears completion - each brick further closing him off from the rest of the world - Pink spirals into a veritable Wonderland of insanity. Yet the minute it’s complete, the gravity of his life’s choices sets in. Now shackled to his bricks, Pink watches helplessly (or perhaps fantasizes) as his fragmented psyche coalesces into the very dictatorial persona that antagonized the world during World War II, scarred his nation, killed his father, and, in essence, affected his life from birth. As much as this story tips toward nihilistic victimhood, there also runs a strong existentialist countercurrent in which freedom cannot be separated from personal responsibility. The narrative culminates in a mental trial as theatrically rich as the greatest stage shows, with Pink’s tale ending with a message that is as enigmatic and circular as the rest of his life. Whether it is ultimately viewed as a cynical story about the futility of life, or a hopeful journey of metaphoric death and rebirth, the Wall is certainly a musical milestone worthy of the title “art.” As with most art, Pink Floyd’s concept album is a combination of imagination and the author’s own life. The album germinated during the band’s 1977 Animals tour when frontman Roger Waters, growing disillusioned with stardom and the godlike status that fans grant to rock stars like himself, spit in the face of an overzealous concert-goer. Horrified by his disenchantment, Waters began drawing from the well of his alienation as well as the loss of his own father during World War II to flesh out the fictional character of Pink. The wild stories surrounding Pink Floyd’s original frontman, Syd Barrett - including his drugged-out escapades and subsequent withdrawal from the world - provided Waters with further inspiration for the moody rock-star. The contributions of bandmates David Gilmour, Nick Mason, and Richard Wright provided the final brush strokes for a contemporary anti-hero - a modern, existential Everyman struggling to find, or arguably lose, self and meaning in a century fragmented by war. Songs - Song in a Sentence: In the Flesh - Paralleling his own conception and birth into life as well as the narrative, Pink invites the audience at one of his rock concerts (and by extension, us the listener) to delve into his story. The Thin Ice - A newborn Pink is instructed about the emotional turmoil that lies just beneath the calm surface of life. Another Brick in the Wall, Part 1 - Young Pink begins building a mental wall between himself and the world, distancing himself from the pains of life, such as having to grow up without a father. The Happiest Days of Our Lives - Pink recounts how the teachers of his childhood would stop at nothing to eradicate individuality and humiliate their students, imagining, with bitter satisfaction, how the teachers would get their own karmic comeuppance when they got home. Another Brick in the Wall, Part 2 - Pink continues to speak out against the cruel teachers of his childhood, whom he blames for contributing more bricks to his wall of mental detachment. Mother - As Pink grows more curious about the world and his own individuality, his mother inadvertently adds bricks to his wall through her over-protection and dogged need to keep him safe. Goodbye Blue Sky - The fear and the anxiety felt by a country still transitioning from conflict back to normalcy parallel young adult Pink’s departure from his childhood home. Empty Spaces - Possibly addressing his estranged wife, possibly addressing himself, a now adult Pink wonders how he will fill the remaining gaps in his mental wall. Young Lust - Pink becomes a rock star and throws himself headlong into the hedonism of sex, drugs, and rock and roll. One of My Turns - Suspecting that his wife is having an affair, Pink invites a groupie back to his hotel room before emotionally erupting, destroying the room and chasing the groupie away. Don't Leave Me Now - Pink mentally lashes out at his adulterous wife, alternating between threatening her and begging her to come back to him. Another Brick in the Wall, Part 3 - Spurred on by the latest brick in his wall - the revelation of his wife’s infidelity - Pink decides to completely isolate himself from the injurious world. Goodbye Cruel World - Pink bids farewell to the outside world, locks himself in his hotel room and places the last brick in his mental wall. Hey You - Immediately after finishing his wall, Pink begins to wonder (too little, too late) whether he’s made the right decision in completely isolating himself from the world. Is There Anybody Out There? - In questioning whether anybody is out there, Pink begins to realize the expansiveness of his wall and the consequences of his self-imposed reclusion. Nobody Home - Feeling that his wife and the world are now beyond his reach, Pink lists the inconsequential things that are still within his grasp - the possessions in his hotel room and his unrealized dreams of personal freedom. Vera - As he drifts further from reality, Pink yearns for ideas of home and reconnecting with his personal roots, recalling the hope that Vera Lynn - a World War II era singer - instilled within a country torn apart by war and loss. Bring the Boys Back Home - The personal and social devastation caused by conflict - like the death of Pink’s father - is alluded to in the entreaty to bring all soldiers home from war. Comfortably Numb - Pink’s emotional journey into the past is both interrupted and heightened when his management breaks into the hotel room and has a doctor inject him with a drug that will snap him out of his drug-induced malaise, ensuring that he can still perform at a concert later that evening. The Show Must Go On - With different drugs warring within his body, thoughts of war and childhood reeling within his head, and his bricks dragging him further into mental decay, Pink wonders whether he can perform at his concert as expected before deciding that the show must go on. In the Flesh - Pink spirals into insanity, imagining himself performing at his concert as a fascist dictator demanding ultimate allegiance of his audience. Run Like Hell - Pink threatens physical violence to anyone who steps out of his authoritarian line as he continues his concert (or at least imagined concert) in his dictator persona. Waiting for the Worms - Pink wars within himself as his insane, dictator rants culminate in shouts of ethnic cleansing, effectively turning him into the very sort of force that killed his father. Stop - Pink suddenly realizes the delusional depths to which he’s fallen in the shadow of his wall and decides to find out whether he’s responsible for his corrupted mental state. The Trial - Pink puts himself on trial - conducted by the exaggerated and personified bricks - and ultimately orders his wall be torn down when he judges himself both responsible for the making of the wall as well as capable of reconnecting with the outside world. Outside the Wall - The Moral of the Story: Though there will almost always be personal and social barriers erected out of fear, oppression, pain, and isolation, it’s the job of every socially conscious individual and community to never rest in tearing down the walls that separate us. thewallanalysis.com/

[@marketingTUNEUP]

Roger waters (bass, vocals, composition) before he left PF. The poet and social commentator of PF. You have a long road to travel with Floyd. You CAN't bucket them in one style of music for sure. Waters has his own version (less production) of PF concerts and has created equally amazing important music with Pros and Cons of Hitch Hiking and Radio Kaos (a more commercial sounding LP). Pulse 94 is a significant milestone in concerts. Decades for the band to reach the pinnacle of perfection in production, sound, visual and delivery of classics and new tunes from woefully represented gemstones from LPs momentary Lapse and Division Bell. What made pulse even more magical for me was Gilmore's guitar tone, pedals and amps all dialed in for perfection in this one period of time. CN and Sorrow were mind blowing in putting it all together. I was able to see 2 pulse shows, but having pulse Live available online for all of us to share is a rare experience and that's after all these Smithsonian LPs - The Wall, Dark Side of the Moon, Animals, Wish you were here. I am sincerely interested if you young ones experiencing so much good music in such a short time will end up like Syd. Overload. Let us know how your doing once n a while. Good job, keep on Chooglin.

[@headrushindi]

Listen to the entire recording from front to end . It is what is called a "Concept album" It is a story that moves from song to song. The entire theme of the WALL record according to documentation is :It is a rock opera which explores Pink, a jaded rock star, who constructs a psychological "wall" of social isolation and drug addiction.

[@Nikki-l5p9y]

I think you should listen to the film version of this song. Well, unless you are planning on reacting to the movie at some future point. Which would be cool. But the arrangement is different. Softer. I just love the piano. And the soft acoustic. I got a bootleg CD which was every song from the film, called The Film. And the songs are the way they appeared in the film, which means I got the version of Mother I am talking about, In the Flesh with Bob Geldof singing and Gilmour’s solos, and also When the Tigers Broke Free where it belonged. Not where they threw it in on the Final Cut, where it didn’t belong. I have played that CD way more than I ever played the original. I’d love to find it on vinyl.
