TEARS ON TEARS!! First Time Reaction to Pink Floyd - "On The Turning Away"

Roger Waters and David Gilmore are poets, they know how to touch your emotions by putting their poetry to music. I hate that their paths have separated

[@MP2Tablet]

Army vet. Once divorced. And the album Final Cut has some very stirring lyrics on some of the songs. It gets a bit dusty. Being divorced and with young kids, and watching the film version of The Wall will get to you.

[@warriorpitbull1170]

Music is meant to touch the soul and reflect emotions through organized sound. You cry when you listen to Pink Floyd because they are simply one of the best at producing real music that touches us all on a deep personal and emotional level. Gilmour plays with conviction, he plays what he means and means what he plays.

The tears mean you're doing it right. Fine musicians are not just making pleasant sounds. They are trying with everything in them; the lyrics, the music, the staging, and the performance; to convey an emotion; to make you feel something. Some people won't let themselves have the experience but, If you're open to it, it's an experience like no other. Thanks for being open.

OMG.... as the quirky "woooop" sound played at the intro I was thrown into a different experience of music and visuals. it all came together in a amazing trip.my cat that was laying on my foot rest became a fairytale version xD then utube played next song sorrow. also incredible! I was not listening to music,I was having a other wordly experience :D I listen to enitre albums of PF that night. it gave my soul a new life cos I was kinda burnt out and depressed. this was soul medecine in all the levels possible.

We all came back 2 weeks later. It's like a two hour trip, Stacey. Tears don't come into it when it's vibrating live through your body.

[@robertfitterman3777]

This is why David Gilmour is considered to be one of the all time greats. His emotions come out of his guitar playing. You just feel it deep down to the core. Check out High Hopes from Pulse, or the album version from The Division Bell. Just a beautiful ride!

[@recabitejehonadab2654]

👍 High Hopes.

[@oktarin324]

You are not the only one who is crying . David Gilmours guitar playing is not from this world. I would recommend to watch the live version of "High Hopes" and "The Great Gig In The Sky" from the Pulse Concert. Thanks for your wonderful reaction. Lets dive in the world of Pink Floyd :)

[@thenote2367]

Agreed on both songs. However, I would choose High Hopes live from David Gilmour Live from either Remember That Night dvd or Live in Gdansk with whole orchestra. Either is a masterpiece. Especially with classical guitar ending. On Great Gig in the Sky. I think new comers should be introduced with original studio recording from Dark Side of the Moon to showcase Clare Torry's phenomenal vocal performance. Heck, Stacey should do WHOLE Darkside album. We'll need a whole box of tissues for that one. And then 2 boxes of tissues for Shine On You Crazy Diamond alone.

I played professionally for about thirty years... now retired myself...I want to say that I am extremely glad to see that a person as young as you responds remarkably to the music of these bands and recognizes without fail all the true values in their music.

Pink Floyd is about as rare as it gets for emotive psychological psychedelic music. When listening to them, I often think of how lucky the world is to have this band. I tear up still, and I appreciate them more the older I get. It's insane that the bulk of this transcendent work was stuff they'd written in their 20's. You're definitely still on the tip of the pink iceberg. Great seeing you react, thank you!

[@chrissoldevilla5250]

Thank you for your video. The closest thing I will ever get to hearing this band again for the first time is reliving that experience through someone else who not only hears it but appreciates it the way you do, so thank you for that. For me, when I discovered them way back when, I had never heard a band put together music as full composers, the way the greats put together symphonies. Every instrument has a purpose, every voice. Even the silences and the builds and fades are there to evoke an emotional experience. The genius, the heart, and the touch of madness that made up the soul of this group captures a feeling like no other band. They didn't make songs, they crafted whole albums in a time when you were meant to put the needle down and let it sit for the whole record and go on the journey with them. Thanks for keeping this alive.

Back in O.C. Calif when I was 30 my wife heard a commercial on the radio about a David Gilmour show coming up. Knowing I am a Floyd fan she called the radio station (KMET - LA, “The Mighty Met”) to get information on the concert, The DJ on live radio Cynthia Fox…. said...."Congratulations, YOU are caller number 10, YOU just won tickets to the show and the Sound Check Party before the show"... I met David Gilmour back stage. He gave us both a signed album that I have in my music room. We talked for 22 minutes. I called him…“The Master Of The Stratocaster” He smiled. I told him his music will stand the test of time with anything from Beethoven or Mozart. He smiled even bigger. I asked if I could shake both his hands that make such great guitar solos, he smiled bigger and said “Sure” and shook both hands at the same time, making a cross between us, I smiled HUGE. Hard to explain how awesome that moment was in my life. I asked him to describe his technique of playing guitar, he replied… “I strike a note, bend it, shake it and then release it”…. Yes, he does that quite well, better than any other guitarist I know. . I told him in my eyes he’s a “Legend“. He thanked me and said “Enjoy the show”…. during the concert after the song “Money” he looked right at me and said…. “On saxophone, another Legend, Mr. Raphael Ravenscroft” … acknowledging my comment to him. It is my favorite moment in over 300 shows I’ve seen. I asked David…. How do you create those awesome solos?… he said….. I sit on a stool and listen to what Roger, Nick and Rick put down and play along. I listen to what I played and pick out what I like, then I put the pieces together into one piece then learn to play it as one. Our fans are fanatics for our shows to sound like the albums so I must play it correctly each time in a show. I have the concert Brochure and album on the wall with David’s picture centerfold.

I knew of Pink Floyd before this song, but I did not discover them until this song. After, i went back to Wish You Were Here and then Dark Side of the Moon. Music was never the same after this.

[@RonaldDiPietro]

You're an emotional mess; and I love it. Pink Floyd is likely my 3rd or 4th favorite band, but yes, the only band that makes me (a grown man, 57, tear up). I've seen them in Philly, and I await their return. I travel to Central/South America and parts of Europe. I'll look out for tix, and get you one, so you can see them live. I guess the choice is Gilmour or Waters in the lead; both are amazing! Doubt they'll ever play together again. Meet you at the concert someday, as long as you promise to let the songs play w/out interruption :) (I get it, you're giving your reactions; it's necessary). I think Floyd touches our souls b/c they play "life" through strings, drums, keyboards, backup vocals.........life. I think they're the best Jazz band that's not a jazz band; weird, I know.

[@Intothelight1981]

I watched this video again because it's so unbelievably rewarding to see people getting hooked on Pink Floyds music. I grew up in the 80's and have been into music for as long as I can recall, and I can honestly say that I have never come across any other band quite like them. There are a lot of really good bands and musicians out there, but these guys, for me, are it! No other comes close. Like you, I'm at a loss why their music has such an impact on me, but it does. It is sublime and it goes straight to the heart!!

[@TheFremenBlue]

You cry because they speak to your heart. They've been making me weep for 50 years because their music reasonates with my soul. This performance gets me every time - if I'm not already crying, I am when Machan screams that high note at the moment of peak energy. There is so much more, you have a journey ahead of you with PF. I look forward to watching - great reaction!

[@paulrollings5291]

Well said!

[@jeromechristophe2795]

Pink Floyd is more than just music. They changed my life and my way to see life.

[@JamesHelmbrechtCorndogCorndog]

Love that you feel that. Just the tone of it you feel it in you bones in your emotions in your psyche and I believe this is why Pink Floyd is unique to others.

[@KnutHitraLeirskole]

Dear Stacy. Thank you for showing us the tidal wave of emotions Pink Floyd brings out in us. Im an old listner to their music, but their impact touches something deep.. something that is difficult to describe with words.

[@JamesWayne-kn1yg]

You dont just hear Pink Floyd , their music touches the SOUL !

[@195511SM]

'Sorrow'....from their 1994 PULSE concert is another great one to watch the backup singers. This one was from their 1988 concert. Saw them 3 times on their 1988 tour....& twice in 1994. Still remember everything like it was yesterday.

[@louismarina7225]

5:06 because Mr Gilmour has one of the most embracing welcoming voices in the world. He has perfected his skill over decades, to sound like your friend before you even met him. His guitar is the same, he has known from day one, what a warm pleasant sound is. You don't have to show off or flex with crazy speed, he just sounds beautiful. Every note he plays on guitar is done with intention, emotion, none are wasted, and he is doing it for the audience, no self indulgence...there is a reason why he is a living legend.

[@robforsyth8254]

I remember seeing this concert when they came to Australia…delicate sound of thunder tour…and I bought the video(yes video) when I got to Singapore in 1991. Was an epic concert and David can replicate perfection at each venue…he is a genius.

[@BigKahuna_22]

Even Back in the 80's they had a Spectacular Light Show. Like You Said, When you hear Pink Floyd You Automatically Need Them in your Life. Their Music Send a Powerful Message that's Embedded into Your Soul.

[@user-tb9dx9mg2njsb]

At 65 it still does bring tears to my eyes so we share the love of Pink Floyd

[@warrenturner397]

As others have commented, the backup singers are brilliant and it's easy to miss them but once you listen for them they play a very significant part in the song.

[@artbagley1406]

ABSOLUTELY!!! PF has layer-upon-layer of tones, levels, acoustic, electric, percussion, keyboard, performers take their turns at being front-and-center in a song. And you-know-who gets the lion's share of the #1 position, and rightfully so.

[@brentmatheson1947]

I have had people ask me what my favorite Pink Floyd song is. My response is whichever song I am listening to at the moment. They play on your heart and emotions. The best band ever!!!

[@jonathananderson3897]

I couldn't believe my ears 1st time I heard floyd. Your response shows us all how deep you are, means you have a beautiful soul 👍

[@darylclifford]

I “experienced” a 3 hour Pink Floyd show in the late 80’s here in Sydney, Australia. To this day I’ve never experienced anything like that Pink Floyd show again! They were so far ahead of their time - next level and once in a life time!!

[@mouneshaidar7040]

Am 73 and thought am the only one getting emotional when listening to this guitar

[@johnquinn8796]

Thats why i consider them the best band ever. There lyrics and musicianship is second to none. The back up singers really add so much depth to the song. They're are almost angelic when they harmonize together in this song. Brings tears to my eyes also. Beautiful reaction. You have only scratched the surface of the pink floyd catalog. Keep em coming.

[@gianni4925]

5:21 I’m so glad you have a shout out to the drums! Nick Mason is the reason why I got into Pink Floyd and drumming in general. His drumming has such a powerful rhythm and an ear-catching sound that you can’t resist. It always saddens me more reactors don’t give him mentions and/or shout outs. His performance in “Time” from Pulse where it’s shown he plays rototoms in the beginning deserves to be watched soon.

[@kimberlyrineer6822]

And Echoes live Pompeii in 72.

[@billwood1372]

Pink Floyd is all about feeling. There is sooooo much in there music and the words really hit hard

[@ThePopOptic100]

Saw them live on this tour 1987 in Seattle. Their music is so emotive and relatable, it reaches in and plays with your heart. I felt the same way then as you do now.

[@hlloyge]

That whole concert was a big farewell to a generation.

[@jamesellis1972]

At 10:35 you heard the lady step it up with her voice. Go back to that concert and listen to "The Great Gig in the Sky" I promise you there will be tears. Those ladies are awesome.

[@Stacks5497]

I am 68 years old and they were a big part of my youth going back as far as when they had no vocals on the meddle album . One of my top 5 bands of all time .

[@izzintheskies]

Try Great Gig in the Sky, I have been listening to Pink Floyd for over 35 years and this song still makes me cry

[@thomschall8973]

Yes. A turn table and vinyl give music such a warm sound. The slight clicks and pops are such a richness I didn’t know I missed from my youth after listening to digital since the mid 80’s. Get a good setup, a few albums, Echos, Animals, Dark Side of the Moon, Wish You Were Here, The Wall, turn down the lights, get “comfortably numb” and you will have a new appreciation for good music. You think this gives you tears, you will not regret it! At my viewing I want PF music playing, and the last song to be played will be “The Great Gig in the Sky”. Check it out on the Dark Side of the Moon album.

[@thekenjensen]

I went to the 94 Yankees Stadium show with my Marine war buddy, who was a barely contained ball of pure rage most days. He was feral. Like a force of Nature. He cried like a baby throughout that show. We all did. Seeing Floyd live just guts you in the best of ways. It's life affirming.

[@barryfastcars25]

Nothing compares to Pink Floyd live. They are so genuine.

[@MrBoombast64]

They are SOO emotional and deep in their lyrics, and youre not alone crying to their music. Cleansing your emotions is good for you/us, specially in theese times. Good reaction girl. 😇

[@TheRammMan]

These guys are their own genre. I highly recommend watching the Pulse concert.

[@TheRammMan]

I see you’ve already reacted to Comfortably Numb 😂🤘

[@fishman-tr9im]

"These guys are their own genre" - that's perfect. Very well said 👏👏🤘

[@larshansen4557]

Agree would even say in there own leauge

[@double00spy]

Many of their songs are great, but this one and "Comfortably Numb" simply rip my heart out. David is one of my favorite artists, with both his voice and his soulful guitar playing. I tear up every time.

[@nightpuppett1]

I saw them play twice on this tour....sublime!

[@OddAreKrum]

Thank you for your honest reaction. I saw this live in Oslo Norway in august 1988. It was my first big show ever and the emotions has stayed with me ever since 😀

[@bubbaries]

Is it only a dream that there’ll be no more turning away? I’ve never understood how a person could not be moved by this song considering the message. Please cry. It means you’re human. Hope you continue to enjoy your journey into Pink Floyd. Highly recommend Wish You Were Here if you haven’t listened yet.

[@ScottAlexander-n2l]

Every live performance that Pink Floyd gives is beyond description

[@jbalgwik]

I absolutely feel you on this one. This is such a beautiful song and it moves me to tears every time too and always has, since my first listen years ago. I'm also surprised how disregarded or forgotten this song is, among all the others in their catalogue.

[@wallpropainting]

My wife wasn’t a big fan until I played the PulseDVD and she was hooked forever like me with a surround system hooked up it’s incredible sound.On the turning away I tear up every time.

[@robertjones9158]

Beautiful young lady, I'm a 56 yr old man, i was 21 in 88, I would see this very tour in Melbourne Australia, 🤯🤯, you're bang on, there are no words, and absolute out of body, almost other worldly experience!! been floyded since I was a young boy, and still choke up everytime I listen to them, mesmerizing!!

[@bjennings1067]

This track really hits home pink floyd through their genius gives us an incredible experience i believe the lyrics say it all human beings need to help the less fortunate in this world there is far to much unnecessary suffering pink floyd put out a truthful and pure message in such a unique way its inspiring and very beautiful great reaction from you you have obviously got a big heart

[@jasonkimmins1717]

That Pulse live album is simply the greatest live album in the history of music

[@nunoricardo6982]

This was from the delicate sound of thunder concert, some years earlier. But .... Pink Floyd never gives their credits away! Simply the best band of the world! No one can touch our feelings like them!

[@erictownsend8870]

Beautiful song and beautiful message and amazing music. Who wouldn't cry?

[@shnoo8016]

As a Floydian it's so amazing to watch you discover my favourite band! As other floydians suggested, check next 2 emotional songs: Time and The great gig in the sky. They are from their iconic album: The dark side of the moon and in fact, they float from one to another so it's good to liaten them together :)

[@chuckwagon7860]

The most beautiful emotional wreck I've ever seen! Your reaction completely brought justice to Pink Floyd's magic! Blessings to you!
