HIP HOP FAN'S FIRST TIME HEARING 'Pink Floyd - Wish You Were Here' (PULSE CONCERT) | REACTION

It has been such a long time since I posted a Pink Floyd reaction. I even went through a phase where I was reacting to a lot of Pink Floy's Pulse Concert videos yet I somehow forgot Wish You Were Here! David Gilmour's ability to make music speak to the listener is unreal. I cannot wait for you to see this one!
Here is my reaction to hearing Pink Floyd - Wish You Were Here for the first time! I hope you enjoy it!

Man, what a song huh?!! I played this song at my wife's funeral 4 years ago. We were married 37 years so yeah, I have an emotional connection with this song. ✝️😥👍

[@mariannetuite7411]

We played it at my Dad’s funeral too, it was one of his all timers

[@papalaz4444244]

so you must be 70 or older?

[@antoniocharo1724]

Ahahaha, not 70. 😁😂 I met her in 1983, moved 2 weeks later. Married in 1984 while stationed in Germany in which she was a native citizen. So what that a honest guess or you were you trying to to be a Dick? 🤔😎

We lost our daughter back in September, one week after her 49th birthday. She loved PF, went to many of their concerts, and was also a huge Grateful Dead fan. Her entire life was dominated by drug issues, and ever increasing health problems. She spent her last six years back home with my wife and me, after her fiancé died of an overdose from cocaine and fentanyl. Thankfully, she was clean and sober the entire time she lived with us. I'm dedicating ' Wish You Were here ' to Mary Ann, our youngest of only two daughters. We miss you very much honey, and hope that by some great design we will meet again in some other realm or dimension. Love, Dad and Mom

[@jaemigoodings1054]

I am so so sorry for your loss. I cannot imagine having to bury a child. I’m so glad she got to spend her last years with mom and dad and sober. Sending love and thoughts from my family in Canada to you are yours. Hang in there. Again I’m so Terri sorry , you got me weeping … and it’s ok. Love you guys.

MORE PINK FLOYD!!!!!!!!!!!

[@jefffrey4844]

I’ve struggled with things my whole life: death, anxiety, depression, addiction, low self-esteem, you name it. I’ve had things to cope, but nothing quite calms me down like Pink Floyd. I often feel like a lost soul swimming in a fish bowl, and it’s comforting to know I’m not alone. (Being a part of this community makes me feel that I can share side of me.) Although I’m grown now and have made it through a lot of the difficulties of my younger days, when I’m feeling down, you can bet on a Pink Floyd album being played on my stereo, or in my headphones as I lay there trying to be Comfortably Numb.

[@hansandresen4392]

You aren't alone Jeff. I go through the samethings you do daily. It's horrible but we do it. Kindred spirits bro.

[@Grungycat67]

Same, guys! I sometimes wonder how I have gotten through the past 56 years. Music is everything to me. The only time I don’t have music on is when I’m sleeping. My favorite Floyd for rough days is Momentary Lapse of Reason. Peace to you both 🤘🏻

Little brother, you are experiencing musics power to move us in a way nothing else does. Don't ever be afraid of tears, little brother. I'm 64 and still weep when I listen to a small number of particular songs, not just because it's a great song but because it takes me back to another place and time. Another life I left behind.

I'd be willing to bet that the vast majority of the people that have been here for the Metallica, Pantera, Megadeth, Tool, etc. (and I'm one) are also big fans of Floyd (I'm definitely one!) Their music is timeless and universal!

[@davestark2015]

As a disabled person I learnt about loss from a younger age than most people in my life. This song always, always hits hard. But it is simply one of the most moving, perfect pieces of music I’ve ever heard

For the record, Syd Barrett was alive when they wrote this song in 1975. He was alive when they performed this in 1994, Pulse. Syd Barrett died in 2006. The "Wish You Were Here" album was about the loss of Syd Barrett's mind and spirit, his mental breakdown that made him unrecognizable to even his closest lifelong friends. It was not about his physical loss. More Pink Floyd please!! "Shine On You Crazy Diamond" live Pulse rendition. I believe you've already done the studio version. 👍

[@bretttodd6470]

The Pulse concert was amazing.

[@markbaltierra7226]

True rock fans never waiver from the greats. Regardless of what you consider your favorite genre. Pink Floyd should be one of those always.

[@sherylstone8804]

As long as you remember and feel them, they're still with you. This song reminds me how much we mean to each other.

Are we not lucky to be alive in this time period. Pink Floyd are without doubt the greatest band of all time, I’m knocking on the door of 73 and been a fan for ever and was lucky enough to see them twice in the early 90’s . More PF please 🤘🏻🤘🏻

Definitely grabbing a Heineken and listening to that next.

My grandmother died in '87 when I was finishing my high school freshman year. This is the album I played at 1am when I got the call from my mom. Saw this live at Pulse in El Paso, TX. Special album and song. Listen to it every time life takes another one away. Like most of Floyd, it seems to mean more to me the more mileage I get behind me. Going on 53 and this song often makes me full on cry.

⁠​⁠​⁠@@James-lk2sgIt was released in ‘75, that doesn’t mean this person heard it then. There are plenty of albums that pre-date my lifetime, or that I simply wasn’t aware of on their release.
