Thank you for yet another fantastic video, I watch them all. I have listened to the Wall since as long as I can remember, my dad is a huge Pink Floyd fan. But I promise you, that myself and many of your viewers are hoping for you to have a look at Dream Theater's Dance of Eternity. To be fair, in one of your earlier videos you mentioned that you were used to different time signatures, and appreciated the symphony orchestras combination with rock music. Dance of Eternity was, and still is, a big milestone in progressive rock, and I feel it would be a perfect piece of music for your channel. Have you ever heard the piece? Will there be any chance of this piece appearing on this channel?

Great deconstruction as usual, of course! I have to say that "Did did did did you ever wonder why we had to run for shelter when the promise of a brave new world unfurled beneath a clear blue sky?" is one of my favourite Roger Waters lines. He's so good at getting the exact rhythm of the words to match the rhythm of the music. A lot of lyricists have to distort and warp words to fit the music. My other favourite line of his is "Wave upon wave of demented avengers march cheerfully out of obscurity into the dream.", another line which is longer than you''re expecting, and whose lyrics perfectly match up with the rhythm of the music, in Sheep, on the album Animals.

Thank you so much for the time, care, attention and dedication that you have put into your expert analysis of Pink Floyd's music! I know this isn't your go-to music for listening enjoyment, but I am taken aback by the depth of consideration you have given to both the lyrics and the music theory behind these compositions. The Wall has been a favorite topic of rock fans since the album was released. Pink Floyd has always made great use of symbolism and universal themes and motifs that strike their fans on both an emotional and intellectual level, and The Wall went deeper into that territory than their previous work, given that it is a full-blown rock opera. Your insights into the compositional choices made by Waters and the rest of the band are a revelation. After living with this music for decades, and feeling like I understood it well, you have given me an even stronger appreciation for this work. Thanks again! I am thoroughly enjoying your discourses on The Wall as well as the other songs you have analyzed. Keep it up!

For my very first listen of the album, I got all the way to “Vera/Bring the Boys Back Home” when I just had to stop. I had such overwhelming emotion at the damage to that generation in England. It still gets me to this day, even seeing your reaction. This is a very heavy album of human tragedy…war, emotional/physical child abuse, isolation, substance abuse, mental deterioration, exploitation, despair, and ultimately acceptance. Though the ending is a bit ambiguous, the wall came down, but at what price? The album strongly suggests the story repeats, does that mean he recovered, then relapsed? Or more universal…Pink’s story is over but the pattern is just starting for someone else. Just a brilliantly thought-provoking piece of art.

Loved the analysis! In case you're not aware, a number of the sound effects used on this album are references to previous PF albums eg the airport announcement at the close of this track refers to On The Run on DSOTM. The character PF is also a representation of the band itself, not just RW, as it was assumed in the US that one of them was PF when they toured in the early years, as referenced in Have A Cigar on WYWH album. Hence Pink comprises elements of Syd Barrett (Comfortably Numb), Richard Wright (Nobody Home) etc which adds a more personal level to the album if you happen know more of their work.

The part where the vocals descend and descend to finally come up again at the very end being compared to a plane or maybe a bomber is brilliant. Had never occurred to me before except maybe subconsciously. It fits a dive bomber, like the German's famous Stuka, to a T. The sound of a Stuka was very distinctive and can be heard later on another part of the album. As far as the conclusion--loss of trust is still in all a loss of innocence. But you are absolutely right--every brick in the wall is there because of a lack of trust.

Let me pick up on your statement, "I've always been mostly a music person." I take that to mean "music" as opposed to "lyrics." That focus made me wonder how a person might experience The Wall without lyrics. What if the piece were almost entirely instrumental with occasional use of wordless singing--the voice used as a musical instrument without lyrical content? Pink Floyd had done this before, in "Atom Heart Mother Suite" and "The Great Gig in the Sky," for example. I suspect that if the lyrics were stripped out, the emotional response would be just as storng. It wouldn't be grounded in the story or in the deconstruction of social institutions, but it would convey, perhaps even more directly, an emotional experience of life common to many people. And it would be just as glorious as those earlier pieces I mentioned. Thank you for prompting me to consider the piece from that angle.

Regarding the semitone relationship - when you asked "does it remind you of anything else?" - my response was on the other end of the spectrum (from the Beethoven piece), for John Williams used the same repeating ostinato in the bass register for the film "Jaws". Williams said he intended it to evoke the danger "grinding away at you, just as a shark would do, instinctual, relentless, unstoppable." In that work, the semitone ostinato never really resolves, which was tremendously effective in the context of the film - and Waters uses it very effectively here, as well 🙂

This is possibly my favorite track of the album. I really appreciate your interpretation of the piece's meaning - the fears and experience of the older generation (like Pink's mother) not shared by the generation that did not have to experience the Battle of Britain. I feel like you've really unlocked the intended meaning of the piece for me, as this fits better with the album as a whole, and with the adjacent track "Mother", with its image of the overbearing and anxious mother - "Mother's gonna put all of her fears into you." In the past, I think because of the animation that accompanies the piece on the film, which highlights horrific and ominous images of war, I've associated it with the shadow that back-to-back World Wars cast over the Western/European/English imagination - complicating previously sunny attitudes toward the march into a "brave new world." Without discarding my old read, I'm glad to now also have your more correct read. (Edit to add: I see you discuss this other lens later in the video.)

I would only add that the reference to "the promise of a brave new world unfurling" is just so wrong in the face of the Orwellian world Roger Waters' father died to defeat. The threats aren't the ones close to home described earlier in the album. They are the external threats of war and annihilation in a nuclear age. This is the external threat borne from an old world to a new world in 1979. Although he feared a kind of brave new world dystopian society was rapidly approaching to change our society, Aldous Huxley admitted the possibility of civilization's ultimate demise when he said that nuclear annihilation would "make nonsense of everyone's predictions." Well done, and I very much look forward to our continuing journey together to explore the depths of The Wall.

Hi Amy, Roger Waters was born in September 1943 in Surry, so it's just possible he has an early memory of WWII bombers. I had a different impression of this song.

But the idea/message behind the song is that we, humanity, should be looking at each other with empathy instead of our usual antipathy. We should be able to see ourself in our fellow humans. An amazing song by an amazing band. Echoes the last half of Meddle is often seen as the “golden age” of PF as they then produced Dark Side of the Moon, Wish You Were Here, Animals and finally The Wall.

There is a reason that I keep Brave New World, 1984 and Fahrenheit 451 next to each other on my bookshelf. Great breakdown as usual. Thanks so much! 🤘🧙♂️🤘 Rich the Ancient Metal Beast

I would love to see what you think of two cute little songs by Jimi Hendrix - Little Wing & Castles Made of Sand :)
