PINK FLOYD - 'THE GREAT GIG IN THE SKY' || REACTION

[@timbush7630]

Hi Elok Hsu, the original lady who sang it was Clare Torry who is now 74 years old. A great vocal and was released in 1973

[@ba-gg6jo]

I agree Clare Torry did a tremendous job, but I thought Sam did really, not the easiest vocal to deliver.

[@Kevin6059]

Stop making me feel old! (otherwise, cheers good comment)

[@collinw1353]

It saddens me that there will probably never be bands like Pink Floyd again. Everything now is like fast food music, overly processed and doesn't satisfy. I need my Pink Floyd delicacies.

. I am 63, now in Phillipines..I saw Pink Floyd in concert 1978 in Detroit, Mich ("Salamat!") .

[@johnwriter8234]

[@billg763]

[@neilhaydock5553]

I agree with you 100%, Elok Hsu. There will never be another Pink Floyd. Thanks for reacting to this performance, it's the best.

The courage of those that are without those who are the ones who inspire the most

Great reaction Bunny, love the video.

[@NoProb4Rob]

I enjoyed your vid at the beginning, those athletes are incredible. I went to Indonesia in 1994, traveling around Jakarta, Yogyakarta and over to Kalimantan. It was a great time

[@manlioyllades]

One of the most moving songs ever

I loved all of the video especially the beginning and the careing, supp8ort that you show. I won't ever get tired of Pink Floyd and their magic. Visiting Indonesia would be great if at all possible. It's a long shot and a long way. 😎🙏✌🌈❤

Thanks, Elok Hsu. Listen to the album version when you get a chance. It's just one woman singing on that version. Cheers!

Every one of your reactions, my dear Elok Hsu, I look forward to seeing the look on your face as well as your recommendation for a cup of coffee. But, not to worry, I agree with you so we won't have to have a fight. haha! I'd love to be in Indonesian for the Games. I've got friends there, in Jakarta, Bali and Borneo and another friend here from Jakarta. ♥ Take care and stay safe, my charming friend ☺

[@DanielFrost21]

Hi Miss E, it's great that Indonesia is hosting the Para Games this year. It's amazing what these athletes can do. This is such a great song from Floyd. The vocalists are amazing. Be careful sweetie, there's a tiger over your shoulder!

Pink Floyd fills the gap between Heaven and Earth

[@AliasMark69]

I met David Gilmour back stage at a concert in California 1984. I asked him about the meaning - reason for “Great Gig In The Sky”…. David’s answer was something like…. .I was asked if Pink Floyd would ever do a song about Religion like some others have… so I said, You are referring to the great gig in the sky they call “God“. What words could be used to describe all the pain and suffering caused by religious beliefs. All the crying and wailing from mothers who lost their husbands or sons in a war fought over religious differences. The only vocals should be just the sound of a mothers crying with pain and suffering. That’s the true intentions of the song. We didn’t want to make that public so as to avoid any religious boycott like what happened to the Beatles after Lennon made his comment about Jesus. The speaking heard at the beginning was recorded at Apple records prior to the recording of the song. Roger Waters placed a recorder at the door asking anyone who walked by to answer some questions into the microphone. The janitor stopped and recorded his answer to the question….”Are You Afraid Of Dying”?. It was decided to add the recording to the start of “Great Gig In The Sky”. It leads people to believe the song is about dying, but that is actually not the case. The Great Gig In The Sky…is GOD … The incredible vocals from Clare Torry happened when she did not know what they wanted. David Gilmour told her to pretend her voice is a Saxophone like on other songs on the album, no words, just tones. Results are legendary.

[@timbush7630]

Hi again Elok Hsu, We got sad news today in the US, I don't know if it's known in Indonesia yet but Taylor Hawkins, the Drummer for Foo Fighters just died, he was only 50. Could you play the video The Pretender as a tribute RIP Taylor

[@dominicpelle7841]

You Are So Beautiful...

[@thepragmatic6383]

To say that originally, The Great Gig in the Sky was only an innocuous track that was supposed to fill the void ending the side A of the album. Is there a better way to fill a void than this?

[@ThomasKelly669]

You should listen to the whole album in peace tracks bleed into each other Time/Great Gig in the Sky one piece of music,

[@azscab]

It's almost to much emotion in one video to handle.

[@x_trio_3_po333]

Ah yes. "The Great Gig in the Sky". The no. 1 winner of the worst wedding song ever! (2nd place runner up: Elton John's "I Think I'm Going to Kill Myself")😉

[@keysersoze3987]

Hi Elock, I love Pink Floyd I saw them too amny times to count there's a lot of great music in their catalog. The Dark Side Of The Moon album spent over 990 weeks (19 years +) on the Billboard 200 a record for the most charted weeks on the chart! I have two more songs for you Procol Harum - A Whiter Shade of Pale, live in Denmark 2006, and Nothing Compares 2U 🐬 Sinéad O'Connor ❤ Extended 🌹 Love songs with lyrics I know you will like these they stir a lot of emotions with me. Keep up the good work!
