In The Flesh - Pink Floyd - The Wall - 4K Remastered

"In the Flesh?" and "In the Flesh" are two songs by the English rock band Pink Floyd, released on their 1979 album, The Wall. "In the Flesh?" is the opening track, and introduces the story concept of the album. "In the Flesh" is the twenty-first song of the album, and is a reprise of the first with a choir, different verses and more extended instrumentation.
The title is a reference to the band's 1977 In the Flesh Tour, during which Roger Waters, in frustration, spat at a fan attempting to climb the fence separating the band from the crowd.
"In the Flesh?" introduces the story of Pink, a rock star. It begins with the opening of a rock concert. The lyrics inform us that despite his outward appearances, things are much different "behind these cold eyes" and that if the listener wants to know what's really going on with Pink, you'll "just have to claw your way through this disguise." The song also subtly indicates that Pink's father is killed in a war, with the sound effect of the dive-bomber. Finally, we hear a baby crying, indicating that Pink and his mother are left without a father and husband, respectively (this is expanded upon two songs later, in "Another Brick in the Wall, Part 1").
Later in the album, the reprise marks the first of a series of songs in which Pink, in a drug-induced hallucination, believes himself to be a fascist dictator, crowing over his faithful audience; this particular song is his hallucination that his concerts can be likened to a political rally. He begins exhorting his fans to show their devotion to him by throwing undesirables such as "queers", Jews, and "coons", "up against the wall". He punctuates the end of the song with "If I had my way I'd have all of you shot!". The incited crowd then chant Pink's name as the song segues into "Run Like Hell".
The beginning of the film shows Pink sitting in a locked hotel room. A housekeeper knocks repeatedly, then uses her keys to let herself in. While this happens, Pink's mind is flashing back to a concert, in which a massive crowd of eager concertgoers manage to break down a chained door to the concert venue, and rush inside, trampling each other in the process. The film shows quick cuts of rioting fans and a violent police response, interspersed with scenes of soldiers being bombed in the fields of war. A German Ju 87 Stuka bombs a bunker, in which Pink's father is killed.
The song is performed by Pink (Bob Geldof) in his dictator garb, with the set decorated like a Nazi rally, an insignia of two crossed hammers replacing the swastika. Geldof recorded his own vocals over the original Pink Floyd music track, replacing Waters' vocals.
The film version also uses a mix in which the song's intro was longer, with the E minor power chord riff, and a short David Gilmour solo, repeating twice. This was edited out of the record due to time constraints, but the song has been performed full length in most live performances.
Later in the movie the reprise is used in a similar way as in the album, picking up shortly after Pink's transformation into the Dictator. The song is one of the most radically changed among movie versions, having been converted to an orchestral piece. The Dictator questions the loyalty of the fans, while setting his dogs against the "queers" and "coons" he singles out. As the song ends, the crowd's chant of "Pink Floyd!" is replaced with "Hammer", invoking the film motif of hammers. In addition, both Pink and the crowd display the "Hammer" salute, arms crossed in front of the chest at the wrists like a pair of crossed hammers. In addition, the "Crossed Hammer" logo can be seen everywhere. The song immediately segues into "Run Like Hell".

This is exactly the vibe I get, which is why it gives me chills every time. The first "In The Flesh?" almost has this enigmatic confidence to it, whereas this one is a belligerent tyrant on a tirade culminating him simply wanting everybody, friend or foe, to die. The confused look he gives at 3:27 always stuck with me, since it almost feels like he has a brief glimpse out of his delusions, only to snap back into it with the cross salute.

Something I didn't pick up on until my most recent viewing is that Pink's speech directly quotes a hideous racist rant Eric Clapton gave at a concert in 1976 (*"Do we have any foreigners in the audience tonight?"* - Clapton). This song as well as the next two were commenting on the rise of far-right groups like the National Front in British politics in the 1970's. It also addressed the trend of big-name celebrities like Clapton and David Bowie endorsing fascist ideas (Bowie's "Thin White Duke" shtick comes to mind).

I wish I didn't live in a timeline where this is becoming relevant again, but here we are. The 70s and 80s were a time of relentless queer bashing, so when Pink calls out for the queers to be put up against the wall, it wouldn't have raised too many eyebrows at first. Then he calls for Jews and Blacks to get the wall. And you think to yourself, well, I'm not Jewish or black, the worms won't come for me. And then Pink calls for the stoners and pimply teens listening to PF to GET! THE! WALL! and you realize, nobody is safe from this monster that Pink has become. And that, I feel, was a firm message that Roger Waters wanted to send out with this song. Fascism is an ouroboros. It eventually eats itself in its relentless pursuit of an out-group to persecute. But it always brings down so many innocent in the process. You can see that in the violence displayed during Run Like Hell and Waiting for the Worms. The only way to stop it is to kill it before it takes root. Don't wait for the worms, weed them out.

It was something along the lines of, when Bob Geldof agreed to play Pink he said that he’d only do it if he didn’t have to sing any of there songs, hence why he doesn’t sing in this scene and it’s also just more effective for the movie version I think personally. She also said that they only managed to get him to sing in the chorus of The Trail (I think it was). I’ve not seen anyone else mention this or checked to see if I can find any validity to it but it’s still interesting, and I’m sure maybe it could’ve been in some magazine back in her day and therefore you won’t find online nowadays but who knows, if anyone else has heard this before though then let me know as I think it’s something more fans would find interesting to know if it’s true.

He continued to earn praise for such varied films as the blockbuster Fame (1980), which centred on students studying at a high school for the performing arts in New York City; Pink Floyd: The Wall (1982), a musical inspired by the titular rock band’s album; and Mississippi Burning (1988), a drama about the killing of three civil rights workers in 1964. For the latter, Parker received a second Oscar nomination. His later films included The Commitments (1991), Evita (1996), and The Life of David Gale (2003).

Agree, HD makes it look like news on TV.

There's an American neo Nazi group who adopted the crossed hammers as their logo, apparently not realising the massive irony

[@Inventure751]

Most likely since the Neo Nazi guys in the background were played by actual Skinheads - the violent acts they do in Run Like Hell and Waiting for the Worms were not staged in any way. Even Animator Gerald Scarfe and director Alan Parker had trouble getting them to stop during filming.

What's amazing is many don't realize that this speaks to how the masses follow celebrity to the degree they do. Look at how people follow, Taylor Swift, The Kardashians, etc... This is what Pink Floyd was truly getting at with these sequences

2:47 Recently, a police officer in England confronted and condemned a man near a protest for being "openly Jewish". This scene is getting scarily close to becoming a reality.

[@wephilips6651]

That is a gross oversimplification of what happened. I’m going to chalk it about to genuine ignorance rather than being deliberately mendacious and misleading

I understand the director's choice to be vivid and daring with this part of the story album (Side 4 first half). As Waters aimed with these specific songs, there's a fascist or totalitarian within each of us, and when we give in to that demon, that psychological character, we build our walls and wreak havoc on everyone around us. And I understand how Parker, Waters, and Scarfe sought to amplify the political dimension of the story-album knowing the angst and tumult the UK had been going through since the early 70s into the 80s. That having been, I don't see the wisdom in director Parker's hiring real skinheads for these scenes. Parker himself admitted there were some "difficulties" with these extras in filming the fascist sequences. Ya think?! You' re portraying British-style fascism and to do that you're use the very people who would bring it on?? I don't know if it would have been much easier if the studio had just paid a few extra quid to get plain actors to shave their heads. At least with professional actors, even extras, they have the job skill of controlling their passions, even as they act out intense scenes. But knowing what the creative team was trying to achieve with these scenes, it was just too close to home to use latent goosesteppers to make the point.

They are showing this movie at a theatre here in kansas city this weekend and I am taking my twin 15 year old boys - I was about their age when I was introduced to this as a 'midnight movie' in 1986 or so and I'm so excited to be able to share it with them.
