Syd Barrett story. They were recording this and David Gilmore popped and Sydney barrett turned up. Bloated, bald and wearing green gabberdene jacket. Nobody knew who he was accept Roger waters. Richard Wright said he was haunted by his appearance. And after a brief chat he left and never came back. Gilmore returned and Richard wright told him that Syd Barrett turned up and Gilmore said that he was disappointed to miss him. And that had he been there he would give him a hug just to make sure that Syd was alright. It's in the making off documentary TV special.

Can you imagine how many people the song represents now in the collective consciousness of all those who have listened to it? I've been listening to it for 45 years and adding names to the list of those I've lost along the way. Saw it performed back in '77, by the the original band members who recorded it. It's an elegy that almost feels like a hymn.

This song can mean so many different things to so many people. I know it's about Syd Barrett but certain lines in the song mean something to me. "Did you exchange a walk on part in a war for a lead roll in a cage"..... My grandfather was a mechanic for the US Army in the Philippines during WW2. He was captured by the Japanese and was part of the Bataan Death March. He survived that and was a P.O.W. in Japan for 42 Months until the end of the war. So yes, he traded his walk on part in the war for a lead roll in a cage. He obviously made it out or I wouldn't be typing this. His forgiveness has taught me a very important lesson in life.

Pink Floyd was named after the blues artists Pink Anderson and Floyd Council by Syd Barrett, one of the band's founding members. Syd was also the subject of "Shine On You Crazy Diamond". If you were raised listening to R&B, then all those old English rock bands (Beatles, Rolling Stones, Yardbirds, Cream, Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, etc, etc, etc) listened to American blues and rock (Chuck Berry, BB King, Elvis Presley, Buddy Holly) and it greatly influenced them after the devastation of WWII. So you're listening to music that you've already heard, or at least the beat and rhythm, which is probably one of the reasons why you dig this stuff so much. I really enjoy watching your reaction to music I grew up with. I may be old, but I got to see all the cool bands.

Pink Floyd,Led Zeppelin, and the forest got me through my high school years. Most kids claimed to listen to it and get stoned to it like it was a milestone, something to be cool. For me though and I’m sure there were others just going through personal hell, growing up music was a friend, a confidant. My dad, before he was absent, introduced me all kinds of music from Memphis blues to outlaw country then everything in between. Peaking my interest in all music was the greatest gift he could have given me.

It always does my heart good to see reaction videos from someone who has probably never heard music I’ve been listening to for decades. And yes, put on some headphones, start Dark Side of the Moon or Wish You Were Here and close your eyes for the next 45 minutes.

There’s only one way to listen to Pink Floyd, live! Any video you can watch live....watch it, and you’ll appreciate them even more. Watching David play the guitar is amazing.

It's so beautiful watching someone experience something that means so much to me for the first time. Another track that refers to their old bandmate. The whole album did. And MAN, was this album a good one. 🖤

Thank you Jamel for reacting to this fabulous song 🙏 I so much listened the whole album when a teenager, and I decided recently to do my own little video covering that song ... Then I realised that decades after I perfectly remembered the lyrics and melodies as that kind of stuff goes so deeply in heart and mind ... I probably listened it with eyes closed 😎

Love your reaction. You’re 100% on point. Most Pink Floyd songs are best listening to allowing your thoughts to wonder with the tune and evoke your own emotions. Led Zep and Pink Floyd are the top bands in my book but with completely different sounds and vibes. Both bands were masterful musical geniuses at evoking emotions. No matter who you are, where you are or your current mood - Their tunes simply engulf and carry you away - to a different mindset and to other places, spaces and times. That’s what sets a band apart from being real good to being a top legendary band for decades. 🔥💎🔥💎🔥💎🔥

Takes me back 30 years ago, at a party with a bunch of people, some fellow Friday nite jammers, and local musicians. It was just a party, but it seemed like everyone had their guitar. We got word a friend had committed suicide. Out came all the guitars and this song was played and sang by all. The feeling I will never forget, sadness and unity. Sigh. Pink Floyd is awesome. If you get the chance to check out "Fearless" it's not super well known, but it's one of my favorites. "Eclipse" is a great song too. If you ever want to hear life summed up by Pink Floyd listen to Eclipse.

One of my favorite Pink Floyd songs ever is another brick in the wall pt 2. Great groove and jam and one of my favorite guitar solos ever. Not crazy technical or intricate but it's perfect fit to the song and absolute perfect tone. Also you would really like Hey You. Money is cool too. Please let those 3 be your next waves. Great stuff brother I shall stay tuned!!!!

Wrong. It's about the band no longer being unified and friends. Things had changed and he's addressing the loss. Shine On is about Syd.

This song was Roger Waters internal conversation with himself. I'd wondered for years, because nothing else truly fits, but then he said this in an interview and it all fell into place.
@73challenger50313 жыл бұрын
Roger wrote these lyrics and David sang them, beautifully, as he always has! I don't know why Pink Floyd's songs are such a mystery to everyone when Roger made a movie (The Wall) about all of it. He grew up without his Father, who died a hero, defending a post in WWII. His Mother smothered him because he was all she had left and he struggled to break free of her grasp, with all the guilt any Mother's Son could bear. Through all of Roger's fame and fortune, he held onto the guilt of being rich and famous for not doing anything but being a Rock Star. Hence the line: "and did you exchange the walk-on part in the war, for a lead role in a cage." The cage, being trapped in his stardom.

That was some fan-made video....& very distracting, having nothing to do with the song. I've been a Pink Floyd fan for 44 years now ( since 1975 ).....and depending on where I'm at in my own life experience......the meaning of the lyrics can change. I prefer just throwing on the headphones & closing my eyes.....letting any visuals play out in my own imagination.
