The members of Pink Floyd were not just musicians, they were very well educated men and naturally deep thinkers. The combination of that and their expertise of their instruments is unsurpassed

[@MrUnderdog-vn3zf]

Absolutely my friend 👍🏻

[@paulkarp958]

Great comment , with Floyd it was about the details , and the thinkers get them.

[@lapav9486]

I think the psychedelics contributed to the deep thinking too, I can't lie.

[@Watchman70]

So very true! They are the thinking man's band!

[@backpages9885]

This is one of Pink Floyd's best and Certainly one of Richard Wright's best

[@margaretgerhold5922]

This album is about our culture of turning ourselves into robots just working for the man. At least that is how I always felt it. 65 yrs old and still loving them.

[@OriginalPuro]

The Machine is real, in 2024 they call it "the matrix".

[@simply_psi]

This is a showcase of how amazing Rick Wright was as a musician, this simply fizzes with atmosphere, stunning

[@justinmontoya3550]

Echoes, Dogs, A Pillow of Winds, Goodbye Blue Sky. (some absolute gems you two haven't gotten to yet)

[@climaximus7699]

Pink Floyd... The masters of melancholy

[@joshuadeshaies7106]

I love the way David sings in this song man. Gives me goosebumps bros!!!

[@ruialves4965]

I used to say there's only two band's on earth , Pink Floyd and the other's 🇵🇹🍻 congret's from Portugal

[@CuzKatieSaysSo]

It still amazes me that such incredible music came from kids so young. Conpated to being 65 today - they were kids - and SO far ahead of their time. God Bless their vision...

[@carolyn64]

Pink Floyd and Moody Blues are both the type of groups that compose albums that should be listened to from beginning to the end to get the most out of their music. 🎶🎵🎧😎🎧🎵🤟

[@spazimdam]

Yes Pink Floyd evokes imagery and incites emotion. They have an unparalleled sense of drama in their music. They are masters at timing and unhurried, gentle transitions. I love Welcome to the Machine. It is so measured and eerie, pulsing and grooving along. Is good.

[@tapiawilliamj7760]

Back in the early 80's I slept with my radio on, and right at dawn they played this. I was in between asleep and awake and when the intro was being played I literally thought we were being attacked by something until the acoustic guitar hit came in. I just remember so vividly thinking to my self "Thank God it's Pink Floyd".

[@Duci66]

PINK FLOYD!!!! TIMELESS

[@Splitshot1]

It has a futureistic sound even for today..great reaction boys.

[@Rena-ol7dn]

My favourite Pink Floyd song.

[@xlerb_again_to_music7908]

Echoes is a genuine work of "once in a generation", like Freddie to singing...

[@robinhood1016]

Echoes? I agree about Echoes (Honestly, Meddle in general is absolutely perfect and criminally underrated) But this is Welcome to the Machine my friend.

[@SteelBreeze021]

Yup… you nailed it. “Timeless Masterpiece” it is. The rest of their art is too. So much art, so little time. Enjoy!

[@connieamos6038]

I lived through the era that these treasures were written. I am loving watching you two young gentlemen react to these songs with such raw, pure emotion. It is always better to listen to music with someone who understands and feels it as deeply as you do. Thanks for the awesome company. It is hard to pick a favorite of their songs. But, I have always loved Wish You Were Here just a little more than the others. Reminds me of so many people. You seem to really love instrumentals. Please react to Joe Satriani "Surfing with the Alien". Also, "Always with You, Always with Me". You will not be disappointed I promise. He is a true guitar God, and taught many famous players. Peace!

[@anniegoodrich262]

I'm right there with you, Connie. This was the music of my teens and formed my thinking in the most profound ways. And it's so much fun to watch you two take this journey!

[@kbretro64]

It's about the journey. In 1975, they were recounting about their first impressions into the mid century music industry of the space age, the late 60's and early 70's. Last moon mission was in '72. Pink Floyd, Electric Light Orchestra, and Alan Parsons Project were some of the pioneers in the vanguard of space age sound in rock music. Always taking us to another world.

[@TuchNGoh]

this song never gets old. I feel the same way as you guys every time I listen to it.

[@usposandman]

Rick Wright DNA woven all throughout this absolute masterpiece. Get half a load or buzz on, put on your best headphones, lean back in your fav chair and launch.

[@pablozee6359]

It’s amazing how you can feel the anger and bitterness in the synthesizers after the last verse.

[@Polecat54941]

We are heading towards where this music was way ahead of its time so that is why it feels new and will do until we reach the time for which it was written!

[@willasacco9898]

I like the way you think. Maybe, they were from the future, since they were unlike anyone else.

[@donalddunlop401]

Well said.

Ends with an elevator ride to the penthouse party.

"... come in here dear boy have a cigar"

[@jakebogaert2422]

oh i’m dumb lol all these years ive thought it was a car

[@92stefanovic]

@@jakebogaert2422 well who said it's true? it's left to each one's interpretation, to me it's the sounds of a factory, like at the beginning it's a machine at work, the sound at 08:36 is the factory's horn, the work day is over and people leave, that's why we hear them chattering

[@gbsailing9436]

I think He's ready for "ECHOES". Do the audio version (before the Pompeii version).

[@robinhood1016]

Do Meddle from beginning to end. Its only like 7 songs...one just happens to be an entire album side!

[@Newfie-zc7ug]

polecat..............I used to think that way too but now I just KNOW that Pink Floyd, Led Zeppelin and Peter Gabriel"s Genesis are just the best artists of our time NOW !

[@metalhead4135]

The real genius is Echoes but you haven’t got around to it yet. Don’t worry, I’m going to keep nagging.

[@dwashington1333]

"Echoes" in Pompeii!

[@VinzClorthokeymasterofGozer]

This always felt like it was about adulthood more than anything. Being a worker ant. You are just energy and work fed into the machine and spit out when you are out of energy to exploit. They told you what to want, where to go, and what to dream, that way you'll be a good cog in the machine.

[@PedroCoutinho-yf8po]

beautiful song , a lot of elements to enjoy

[@EmoGothKevin]

One of the best reaction videos ever. thanks, guys!

[@geoffsullivan7902]

Pink Floyd were ahead of their time. They really do grab you and take you where they want, every song. 🎼🎹🎸🔥😎Great reaction guys!

[@ssacra22]

I feel this is one of their most underrated songs. I think it's brilliant.

[@fortch17]

That sound at the end is the door of an elevator closing behind the person they're singing about, whether it be Syd specifically or any new artist, the elevator hitting hyper speed to the top floor of the record company building (likely to mimic a skyrocketing to the top of the charts), and the door opening allowing them to gain entry to a high end record executive party. Faintly at the end you can hear a quiet "pop" and I think that's the sound of the proverbial bubble inevitable bursting on a career in the future. Great reaction guys!

[@rydah7231]

I've thought the same thing, but instead of an elevator, it's the *star* opening the door of his Jaguar and driving at full speed to some exclusive event or party

[@rydah7231]

And then Have a Cigar starts, with a big corporate welcoming him to the party

[@ginaluvsrush6093]

This song has always made me feel a certain way...you can't really describe...😘

[@kodoiinkodi4534]

You're the first people who I saw that respond positive to synth work in a song. I'm so glad I found you and your channel. Love, From Tehran, Iran

[@janpulliam-bracey6010]

Same way I listen to them, eyes closed just riding the wave. The best.!!

[@2715bunky]

Please react to the "Animals" album when you get around to it.

[@marniethedyslexic6445]

Great reaction guys.❤️😀👍❤️✌️🌼

[@kathyhofkamp3117]

Strap in and join the MACHINE!

[@davidclark3603]

My favourite all time album!

[@Hrithik23]

Y'all need to check out Animals (1977) now. A lot angrier album. You need to check that out now.

[@davecouillou]

Concerning Thee Great Pink Floyd; as soon as your conversations lead to "They are aliens," and "everything they touch turns into a masterpiece', I hit the f**k yeah like button.

[@ggzinha22]

Machine is the society. Make It WORK. Money money

[@JPMadden]

This song is about the business side of being a successful musical group sucking the joy out of music--the pressure from the record company to keep producing hit songs, keeping employed the many people needed when on tour, needing lawyers and accountants, all the publicity appearances and media interviews to promote a new album, etc.

[@kriashun]

You guys are definitely my favorite reactors! I love how you’re not afraid to express your feelings sincerely from your hearts! that’s what makes your reactions great!!

[@jimdavis8864]

The man on fire was Really set on fire for the photo shoot about 11 times. After the last time being set ablaze he said “ that’s it, I’m done” and that was the one that ended up on the album cover. There were people with fire extinguishers standing nearby.

[@arthurcurry2003]

There’s beautiful anger in this song. It touches my soul.

[@byronmitchell3784]

PINK FLOYD, "WELCOME TO MACHINE".... ANOTHER AS THE TWO OF YOU INDICATED. AN ICONIC MASTERPIECE WITHIN THIS ALBUM....

[@lisamorrison2149]

Love that you really enjoy Pink Floyd. Keep up the good work!!

[@yeahboiii6640]

IMO Pink Floyd is still ahead waiting for us to catch up.

[@arthurfelig5629]

Do 'The Wall' guys...split it into 4 parts - straight through, with lyrics - you'll love it. ;o)

[@mwatson5702]

The wall is the most boring self indulgent Roger Waters story. Without Dave and co, Waters is nothing. It’s commercial claptrap. It even has a single release!

This is one of my favourit songs from pink floyd Its just crazy this music takes your mind to an other dimandsion

[@helmutvogel901]

And guys, Wish You Were Here came out in 1975, so think of where the technology was and how they actually got those sounds. You HAVE to watch the entire movie Pink Floyd Live at Pompeii, because there is a lot of in-studio stuff they show that are NOT song videos. For instance they show how they figured out how to get the sound for the song 'On The Run' and when you see that, you should be pretty amazed. There were no convenient 'buttons' to push to get a special effect, they actually had to INVENT the special effect first, the hard way, before somebody could later incorporate it into a simple button to push.

[@alansmith7626]

dim the lights and fire up the bong! LOL

[@midnaurthqua6773]

Timeless depths!

[@mike98024]

Great reaction and insight.

[@danielbritton8588]

Pink Floyd stands alone.

[@kortick50]

when you went to a Pink Floyd concert and they played this song they had quadrophonic sound which meant there were speakers in ther front right and front left of the stage and in the back of the place in the back right and back left and that bass line used to go all around the room while this song played and sounds would come at you from all directions. Mixed with the light show you had an incredible experience.

[@noecabazos6717]

So glad you guys are listening to Pink Floyd. You'll never hear another band like them.

[@willasacco9898]

And never will, although Porcupine Tree has been called PF 2.0 by some.

[@1ocean515]

‘..You bought a guitar, to punish your Ma. You didn’t like school, you know your nobody’s fool. So welcome, to the Machine...”. Yep, it’s about the Music industry. The Machine...

'Echoes' from Pompei and 'Dogs' from album 'animals'

[@colinbigmacr7716]

hey Patrick n George, have been enjoying watching your reactions to the genius that is Pink Floyd. I have been moved by your awakening to what i experienced as a youth, many moons ago, especially Patrick's comments, that eye opening moment and realisation of "where have they been all my life", is something you never forget when ever listening to any of the albums. I as an avid fan was lucky enough to catch them live in 94 at earls court for the pulse tour, and live, they were better because of the show that they put on at live events, giant pigs floating across the stage, planes flying in over our heads and exploding above the stage and the laser light shows are second to none. I hope you continue your experience of the Floyd and i can relive some of that youthful exuberance to finding such quality musicians who do such amazing things with instruments and lyrics that can evoke such emotional responses to what you hear. So as George says, i will continue "these journeys" with you guys as you appreciate the genius that is Pink Floyd. p.s. echoes is my fav!....on meddle....lol

[@viniciusamrl9177]

Echoes and Sorrow, are amazing also!! Congratulations bros

This song is about the music business in the 1970's ... This, and Have a Cigar ... The album is about what the music business did to Syd ...

[@webfish69]

How has Rush missed your ears guys? 3 Legendary musicians La Villa Strangiato - An instrumental masterpiece about a nightmare the guitarist was having it tells an entire story without a word. YYZ - Another instrumental - The beginning is morse code for YYZ their closest airport (Toronto) (live in Rio version show a crowd sing to the istumental + but the studio version is fuller (no crowd noise) Spirit of Radio - Great song about the radio and music. 2112 - a long song about a future world.

I just found your channel and just totally loved your reaction. I am now starting to binge watch all your Pink Floyd videos. Lots of love from Kolkata (formerly Calcutta), India.

[@jasonhahn5475]

It was interesting hearing you guys discuss the fact that not everyone gets Pink Floyd. I'm 50 years old. Over that time, I have tried to introduce countless people to Pink Floyd. I've learned that you can tell in the first 30 seconds weather or not they get it. If their attention is easily shifted to their phone, a cat, a car passing by..... They obviously do not have it in them to listen to Floyd. This music is cerebral. As you said, "it makes you think". It seems as though some people do not relate music to thinking. I'm not saying they are stupid. I'm just pointing out that some just aren't wired for it. Whenever I run across this, I am always saddened by it. I wish that they could get out of it what we do. They have no idea what they are missing. But alas,... I have not been able to find a way to get around it.

[@w.geoffreyspaulding6588]

Attention spans are shorter because of social media and video games. I’m NOT saying this because I’m an oldster....I’ve read the research on it. It’s a fact. When this music came out, everyone got together with friends, put on the album and listened all the way through...for 40-45 minutes or longer. No one got impatient. No one was checking their phones. Being stoned sloooowwwweeed things down too...time got warped. So you were completely IN THE MOMENT. I actually do feel sorry for younger people in some ways: sure, they can navigate technology really well.....and that’s cool.....but many have lost the ability to concentrate and to just sit in the moment. And that’s sad. To me, it’s not so much that they might have to think about the lyrics, it’s that they don’t have the patience for the long ride that is Floyd.

[@freeandretired]

One word...Echoes

The first album I bought by Pink Floyd back in the seventies. All the other albums followed. Echoes, from the album Meddle is my most favorite song and it is really hypnotizing. Wish you were here, Animals are my most favorite albums. The live album/dvd Pulse is a must have

[@flyinpigmusic331]

Echoes - album version Then watch Echoes - Live at Pompeii Finally, react to Echoes - David Gilmour live in Gdansk. For me, that's the ultimate version. It's perfect.

[@sergepetiteau765]

I just love the way you comprehend and feel deeply PF. Hélas, i think this band could not exist today. Majors don't want to take risks. It has become and industry like robots.

Dogs! If you like Pink Floyd you must listen to it. It's like a law in some places.

Animals is the greatest album Floyd made. Dogs is a stunning masterpiece.

[@pommie5093]

You are correct once again-everything they touched was pure genius. If I may make another Pink Floyd suggestion-Echoes, live at Pompeii. The studio recording is, of course, a masterpiece-but this live version must be watched. Great channel, really enjoying your reactions!!

[@z-man2343]

And this was the follow up to DSOTM! Listen to this entire album without interruption...but make sure when you do you're in a frame of mind to take it all in. To me, this is Floyd's masterpiece. Dark Side was ground breaking, Animals is almost overwhelming, and The Wall is truly epic, if not a touch grandiose. But WYWH is just fucking perfect.

[@joshuamichael8345]

The Machine - still rolls along today, trying to control all that we do as they attempt to satisfy their unquenchable greed, not wise enough to be more concerned about where they will spend eternity. Seems wiser to be doing the will of my Creator Father so I will have riches forever in heaven. Check out their video "Another Brick in the Wall", showing the mindless minions marching along doing what their told, dawning their masks all the while heading for their own destruction. So true today.

[@DankyKang96]

All Floyd albums are progression from one track to another, so ideally you should play the whole album in one sitting.
