WOW! Pink Floyd "Run Like Hell"

[@chilliwilliams2525]

Pink Floyd is not just music, it's an experience.

[@TheWolffAndTheMelody]

Im realizing that❤

[@jim5247]

" Pulse" was 14 days in a row sold out at Earl's Court and their final concert. "run like hell" they used all of the 200,000 watts of power, 128 wireless speakers. Mark Brinkman lighting director. saw 5 times ,need FFA clearance for outdoor concerts. Watch David Gilmour's " Live at Pompeii at 70 yrs. old, The first person to perform there since 79 A.D to and audience. Has best placing as he said he like playing at small venues. also his last concert tour

[@mikewatts867]

These guys are proof that you can look like a soccer dad or a professor and still be cool as hell. One of the few bands I can think of that fans of almost any genre dig. Considering how mellow so much of their music is, and how many metalheads are into it, says a lot

[@MaraxisArcanist]

I'd also recommend High Hopes from this concert. It's an emotional, nostalgia gut check.

[@TheWolffAndTheMelody]

❤ You got it

[@Kitch-hu7tm]

Pink Floyd reaches in and grabs your soul for a journey of sound and passion.

[@redsquirrel1086]

Best live band I ever saw and my first concert was in the 60's.

[@thepragmatic6383]

Article by Catherine McHugh for Lighting Dimensions magazine, September 1994 issue: Set The Stage For Pink Floyd's 1994 World Tour. In interview with: Marc Brickman (show director), Robbie Williams (production director), and Mark Fisher (set designer). "With or without the benefit of mind-altering substances, even the most jaded modern concertgoer can expect Pink Floyd to put on a show that aims to rattle the senses". Having seen this show two evenings in a row at the Olympic Stadium in Montreal, I can say without a shadow of a doubt that for them, it was mission accomplished.

[@brianjohnston4117]

Love the way Rick puts the arm up and controls everything. RIP you legend .

[@patriciakenney4678]

The audience knows what is coming. Buckle up.

[@jamesellis1972]

I took my wife to see them in Raleigh, NC in May of 1994. To this day, she reminds me of how I caused her to miss the lights exploding at the end. I was thinking about how I was going to get home with over 60,000 other people leaving at the same time. So as the song was ending, I starting out of the stadium. As our backs were to the stage, the lights exploded at the end of the song. I regret it myself. However, going to the concert, I will never regret.

[@sliiiimjim]

If its David's voice that you really like (as do I) you should try High Hopes and also Learning To Fly from the same concert.

[@carlossaraiva8213]

"I feel like the song has just started and we are already 7 minutes in??" That is a very common reaction to a Pink Floyd song. They were masters of the long song format. But unlike most other prog rock bands - Pink Floyd never really changed much from Psycadelic Rock even when that became out of fashion - their songs were never boring or outstayed their welcome. They could be complex without being overwhelming or tiredome and they always made come very catchy riffs that they could play on repeat without outstaying their welcome that would become hypnotic the audiences became mesmerized.

[@sammybeck7794]

This is awesome. Gilmore and Pratt both look like they just finished mowing the lawn and came on stage to show you how it's done

[@jamessweet5341]

Perfect illustration of Richard Wright's contribution to their music. Keyboard that frames everything and delivers it's own brand of punch.

[@cityhonors1]

🤗 Back for a rewatch! Enjoying your PF reactions! 🥰🐰

[@jessdati1]

lmao me too!!!

[@torstenlaumen5766]

You can hear music and you can hear Pink Floyd. Pink Floyd takes you on another higher Level of Music. It’s a out of body experience in music

[@guidosarducci]

The girls were singing "Run, run, run"...and ROYGBIV (colors produced by a prism, hence the Floyd's logo) throughout this entire concert, though no one ever mentions it. Great reaction, man. Thank you.

[@kvikve]

Echoes live in Pompeii is a song I can recommend. They went to Pompeii in 70's to film music in an ancient amphitheater and the song is a groovy journey.

[@gbsailing9436]

Now for SORROW from the same concert !!! It is a MUST!

[@Buddha-of8fk]

Pink Floyd is different from any band. A lot of there albums was meant to be heard front to back in it's entirely to hear the story. This song is off an album they made into a movie. l highly recommend watching the movie. It's amazing.

[@jonhenke1504]

I believe David said we hope to see you again because they sold that Earls Court show out 15 nights in a row. That's over 19,000 tickets 15 nights in a row which is a small city in population!

[@Gavrev]

This is a slice from a great gig. PULSE is a fabulous concert. Though I wasn't at this gig I was lucky enough to get to see Roger Waters about ten years later at the same venue (Earls Court, London) and it's as spectacular a place as it appears.

[@davegrayson8774]

The Great Gig in the Sky from the same show is a must watch

[@marke8323]

This is the Encore they played when I saw this tour at the Hoosier Dome. The lights were so bright it made your eyes tear up!

[@kelleewolfe2834]

This one is wild! Love watching reactions for this one..

[@bobcorbin3294]

Great reaction! I was fortunate to see this tour in Nashville TN at Vanderbuilt Stadium,May of 1994. Still one of my favorite concerts.

[@TheWolffAndTheMelody]

I bet that was amazing!

[@cynthiawatson6104]

Echoes, the final performance from Gdanske, is something you should see. Rick Wright (keyboards) and David Gilmour were, as David put it when Rick died, musical partners. That concert/song showed how true that was. The back and forth that is so effortless is well worth your time

[@Croz76]

I get it dude, for me if I thought a band name was dumb or a band was too popular I wouldn't bother . Unfortunately I've missed out on a lot of classic and good bands because of this line of thought. I'm trying to make up for that now. This was awesome btw! 🤘🤘

[@alangray2976]

I was at one of the shows, at Earls Court in 94, where this was filmed, truly the greatest show I've seen in my 53 years, I've been to many concerts, but this one was special.

[@TheWolffAndTheMelody]

What an experience! ❤

[@ba-gg6jo]

Snap, I have been seeing them since 1972, one of the finest of all their live performances. A wonderful way to finish the concert.

[@philshorten3221]

You might want to go back a bit... Pink Floyd "Echoes" (Part 1) live at Pompeii 1972 No Audience, No Lights, No Pyrotechnics just Gods playing to the Gods

[@963460]

This came right after Comfortably Numb 👌

[@navbusiness2210]

If you really like David Gilmore's voice, you should listen to Wish You Were Here from the same concert. It's my personal favorite PF song, but his singing is the highlight. See if you can catch what makes his guitar sound on it so unique as well.

[@billtbodger]

Pink floyd were an amazing band especially live, this song always hits me because it is meant to, it's a warning to those who cut themselves off from the real world. Big Love Brother

[@vjc812]

Love your reaction you hit the nail on the head!!!

[@DanyQuiroz38]

Esta película cambio mi visión desde los 15 años... ❤ Saludos desde chile

[@darylabbott2032]

Sorrow, Time, US And Them, Keep Talking, Money all pulse shows, Great reaction !! WTch then all you'll love them

[@JohnDavidLove]

Remember what the closing message……. RUN!!!!!

[@daveloboda1769]

A great performance of a great song to finish a great gig. Look at the whole of "Pulse" for a real view of the Pink Floyd experience.

[@anthonydavella1878]

Pink floyd the great gig in the sky, has no words and brings emotions. It's crazy but has to be the pulse concert

[@arclight545]

This was the final encore after comfortably numb and they turned the volume up on everything. This is after two hours of music presented the same way. Imagine having to go home after that.

[@philbeaumont9339]

Lol I'm gonna be contrarian and say this is one of my favourites, a nasty song really as at this point in The Wall He's just laiden with every nightmarish prejudice he can find, straight after the fascist hell of "In The Flesh" we go into "Run Like Hell" where he's just spouting nonsense and lashing out. Everything falls apart shortly after this. I love it because it's one of their more aggressive tracks, things like this, One of These Days, Sorrow, The Dogs of War, basically all of The Final Cut, have an increased fury to them amongst the sweet melodies. I also love that main descending riff, it's one of the many Pink Floyd songs I made a point of learning on guitar. I'm not sure if you will get the same intensity of impact as Comfortably Numb, there are Pink Floyd tracks that are as stunning, like Wish you Were Here, Us and Them, On the Turning Away (I guarantee a lot of people will disagree with me on this one as it's from their penultimate album but it's gorgeous). Great Gig in the Sky may do it, thinking on it, as that is something you're unlikely to have heard before.

[@wolfstrela]

Any Live Pulse is amazing.

[@sisterhoney61]

This is one of my favorite songs from The Wall. Please feature more Pink Floyd!

[@kadoom8843]

I always hate when I read in the comments that, you have to or need to listen to something. So I’m just gonna say Danish symphony orchestra, the good the bad and the ugly. *Especially you being a Metallica fan, they open every concert with “The ecstasy of gold” which happens to originate from the movie the good the bad and the ugly.

[@TheWolffAndTheMelody]

Yooo hell ya!

[@jackiegiannino6835]

This was the final song of their oncor following Comfortably Numb. Preceding Comfortably Numb was Wish you were here.

[@scottspears9347]

The light show is phenomenal

[@palantir135]

You should see the whole epic Pulse concert. You should also see the Remember that night live concert by David Gilmour. Pink Floyd is and will always be my most favorite band.

[@marketingTUNEUP]

This run pulse version was amazing. Seems to be a few different Pulse ver out there. Good Pick!. Your set up was great 2, audio. Black T Shirt is always Pulse fyi :)

[@georgeblanchard5278]

Pink Floyd are Masterpieces and Goats , every songs and instrumentals brings you into a journey . Not every bands does that .

[@dominicpelle7841]

Metallica lead guitarist Kirk Hammett has nothing but love for Pink Floyd‘s legendary David Gilmour. During a new chat with Guitar World, Hammett admitted, “I love ‘Shine On You Crazy Diamond’ because there is a riff in that song, but it’s so sideways and so around the back. When you listen, it’s actually blues. It’s a freaking blues progression but it doesn’t sound like it, and that in itself is a real accomplishment. So I really think that song is just amazing. With the opening to it, that weird ringing opening chord, ‘Shine On You Crazy Diamond’ is just epic, and there’s so much that I love about that.”

[@Erfedwe]

Great reaction! I have seen Floyd live about a dozen times. For me, only the Nightwish finale of Ghost Love Score, followed by The Greatest Show on Earth, comes close to this tour's finale of Comfortably Numb, followed by Run Like Hell. Those are two of my absolutely favorite concert experiences, and best concert memories.

[@Sandkasten36]

There are lots of Floyd songs that are well good on their own but really need the context of the whole album. This is definitely on of them. I'd suggest you listened to Shine on you crazy diamond. It summarizes everything that defines Pink Floyd. And it's probably one of the most influencial songs of them (not only them but all of rock songs).

[@harryreichner5753]

Shine on you crazy diamond studio version. You should give it a try.

[@roballen5718]

high hopes. same concert

[@johnpbh]

Thoroughly enjoyed watching you enjoy it... Thank you. It reminded me of the first time of listening after I bought it.. And I'm old enough to have bought the double album in the week of release. Keep on Rocking.

[@TheWolffAndTheMelody]

Much love friend!

[@123vaporize]

there is NON SUCH as this incredible GGGRRREAT Band

[@elvwood]

I get it. People had trouble believing I'd never listened to Metallica up to a few years ago. It didn't mean I'd never heard of them, or even that I'd never heard their music (I'm sure I had given the radio shows I listened to), but that's different to _listening._

[@TheWolffAndTheMelody]

EXACTLY!

[@gabrielkain1]

As I've said multiple times, Pink Floyd is my second favorite band after TOOL. They have like 22 albums and there music is so rich and full of substance. Most of the albums tell a complete story and this track is right between such great songs that adds to it. I hope your doing good Tommy.

[@TheWolffAndTheMelody]

Ya dude they have so much layers and atmosphere! Love it❤

[@Ducatirati]

Hey bloke , I'm a Floyd fan , and I know of Tool , but I'm a rusted on Zappa nut , 126 Albums now , 62 Albums when he passed so young at 52 , just imagine if he lived another 40 years , ZZZzzzaaa RARARA

[@brianjohnston4117]

Who the fuck is tool ??

[@963460]

What a finale 👏

[@katapult9999]

Welcome to another world!

[@kelleewolfe2834]

Love the lyrics to this one!

[@strogaa]

Now, cause you already did the Pink Floyd tribute song from Nightwish "High hopes", you probably could do the original from this Pulse concert as your next Pink Floyd reaction. I'd also recommend "Time" and "Sorrow".

[@chrisblythe4912]

Hi you need to watch The turning away from the same concert a sure meaningful experience good luck great reaction

[@kathleenswift7979]

Brain Damage/Eclipse is one of my favourites, first heard it in 1974 when I was 10 😁

[@peterbockholm3176]

This song doesn't even make it into their top 20. But as I said in my suggestion it's the production. You're quite right, Comfortably Numb from your last reaction is from the same concert. That song is the second to last and Run Like Hell is the closing number. Do you believe me if I say that this was totally insane to see live? 😁 There's a point to the production when it comes to Pink Floyd. Most often a production is there to highlight the artists but with Pink Floyd it's the opposite. The production is a distraction, it's a part of the experience and it's there to enhance that experience and the music. The music is more important than the artists. I'll be back with other suggestions with songs by Pink Floyd that definitely comes from the top 10.

[@tommc3622]

This is a fantastic live performance of a great song. But to me, this song hits hardest within the context of, and as one piece of, the album experience. The Wall is a singular accomplishment in modern music.

[@pablozee6359]

Agreed. Great performance, but there’s something about after the intro when the main theme of the song kicks in, it sounds like a happy and cheerful song. Maybe it’s the prominence of the organ if the live performance, but this song feels WAY darker on the album, like straight up menacing. If you’ve never heard this song and see this performance (without reading the lyrics), you come away “oh, what a nice song!” Again, I love the incredible Pulse performance of this song, but hearing this song out of context with the rest of the album doesn’t hit the same way.

[@davidmcclean8872]

Pink Floyd does disco!

[@TheDoctorFlay]

Not from my fave era of Floyd, but is one of my fave tracks. To really appreciate Floyd at their peak (and get to watch them at work) you need to see the performances from their film "Live at Pompeii". It was filmed during the period they made the albums Meddle and Dark Side of the Moon. Featuring their most epic and longest tracks, you get to see them at their most experimental.

[@patrickmcevoy5080]

Funny thing about The Wall - it's not an album I really like, but the great songs from it are REALLY GREAT. This being one of them.

[@apmen21]

Same. Not my favourite era, but this track just gets me

[@WNYretiree]

I liked this. Didn't love it but I sure wouldn't be adverse to listening to more. They may very well grow on me.

[@tomorner4398]

Comfortably Numb was the second to last song of the show, this was right after and was the last song, saw it 6 times

[@marketingTUNEUP]

Voice - Check out dark side of the moon. Great sound production. Breath kicks it off. You'll likey and Time and Us Them. Great Gilmore voice samples.

[@TheWolffAndTheMelody]

I got some more Pink Floyd coming

[@shaunmoller2997]

My number one song from them Run like hell band epic but Dawid Gilmour guitar playing out of this world

[@violettamorbid1184]

Never too late to get to the classics. 🤘 You should react to Jehtro Tull's "Song for Jeffrey" at the Isle of Wight 1970.

[@TheWolffAndTheMelody]

Oh that would be fun! I love tull

[@TheDoctorFlay]

As you are on your journey I feel obliged to point out that certain Floyd albums have a thread and narrative. Albums such as "Dark Side of the Moon", and "The Wall" are seamless with each track blending into the next. They should be listened to in the order they are presented, though this is more important for The Wall because it is a story. (The Wall also loops round to the beginning at the end).

[@TheWolffAndTheMelody]

Ohhh I love with bands do that! I'm very big on concept albums.

[@ianfortier6796]

Almost every Pink Floyd album carries through with a central theme, but some are full on concept albums. Dark Side Of the Moon, Wish You Were Here, Animals, The Wall, and The Final Cut are prime examples of the CA, with The Division Bell having a theme of communication and/or it's breakdown as part of every song, but most wouldn't consider it a true "concept album". It is imo, though.

[@DanTheSqueegeeMan]

I don't really know why so many people recommend run like hell. It's not a bad song, but even on the album is a typical album track. Nothing too spectular or particular. Pink Floyd has definetely much more to offer. I personally think it's really a pity we don't have good video material from the time they were at their peak, which is late 60's and throughout the 70's. Maybe at some point I'll just recommend some studio tracks, I think it's much closer to the real Pink Floyd experience. These live videos all lack one important component, which is Roger Waters. They split in early 80's, but without Roger PF is a flexing show, Roger was the soul of the band. I know many Floydians will disagree, but I'm not going into arguing, It's just my opinion. I like what came after the split, but still i feel PF lost its soul. Roger has some great solo work, too. I'm just hesitant of recommending it, he is probably one of the most politically controversial figures in Rock. And it is impossible to react to his music without implying a political statement. So I urge you not to do it.

[@TheWolffAndTheMelody]

You are allowed to feel and think as you please. This was fun, but it was not like my first reaction. ❤

[@secondchance6603]

For some more honey from Gilmour try 'Take It Back' from the same concert, the girls harmony is... (sigh).

[@richardgoddard37]

That's how to end a show.

[@963460]

Greetings from Montreal Canada, dude! Seems you like Metallica, so you must have heard of the Guns and Roses/ Metallica tour in 1992 and how terribly wrong it went in Montreal. Well, I was there, and 20 years old at the 😂 Two years later, the Pink Floyd concert was on a completely different level 👌

[@TheWolffAndTheMelody]

Damn what a hell of a time!

[@963460]

@TheWolffAndTheMelody James Hetfield getting injured at the beginning of the show was super hard to see and deal with. The rest was a horror show ☠️

[@flip97gt]

You really should react to some of their songs from their 80's tour Delicate Sounds of Thunder. I just think their sound was better back then. Oh and Rachel Fury!!!! Need I say more. Total hottie!!!!

[@TheWolffAndTheMelody]

Sounds awesome....also is it bad I dont know who Rachel Fury is?

[@flip97gt]

@@TheWolffAndTheMelody lol! She's one of the backup singers on that tour. Even almost forty years after that tour, there are internet crushes all over the place about her.

[@Rassskle]

This song followed Comfortably Numb as the 3rd and final encore. POQ......Run Like Hell and save yourselves. lol The concert starts with the 3 backing singers dressed in white......half way through the ladies leave the stage and return dressed in black. Then they performed The Dark Side Of The Moon.....the whole album and in original track list, and then the 3 encore songs to finnish. I recommend you react to Sorrow from the same concert and then.......damn it, just do the whole concert. Then Echoes live in Pompeii from 1971.

[@rodwhitfield3029]

Listening to nothing but Metallica for 10 years, when there's a literal entire WORLD of astonishing sounds and amazing music out there, is like eating nothing but stale bread crusts for a decade....

[@peterbockholm3176]

Thanks! / Swedish Pete

[@jkopacetick]

Yes more PF! Tho this song isn't on my top list by any means, its still a good song. With context of the album, it might make more of an impact on you PF albums are often concept albums, and if you pluck a song from the middle you might not get the full impact. If you want a more impactful song I'd recommend "On The Turning Away" or my personal favorite "Wish You Were Here".. both are great live. TY for the reaction i encourage you to delve more into PF. ❤ and ✌️ everyone

[@robertgrant4987]

They have always preferred to under state their clothing because they prefer it to be about the music and NOT about them personally, so they don't dress too snazzy 😊

[@bill3118]

Like someone already said. Looks like your plumber has just turned up.

[@damianbancks7144]

That would of been a great experience live but was a bit to messy compared to the album version from the wall. Check that out.

[@danwatson171]

If you’re impressed by the middle aged version, the original will blow your mind. Unfortunately none of the singers can match the vocals of their heyday, as is the case of all the great bands who went through revival tours.

[@charlierichardson1377]

Wolf, this was the last song of a roughly three hour concert, so it's deliberately upbeat, exciting, but not so deep as many of their other pieces. You'll find PLENTY more of interest in the Pulse concert. In particular, if you like your emotions to poke you in the ribs, listen to "Time" and especially "The Great Gig in the Sky".

[@TheWolffAndTheMelody]

Much love, I got a few more reactions coming.

[@drmorqWarrenProject]

Do the real album version... I cant do this

[@TheWolffAndTheMelody]

this video was request by a patron, hence why this one was used.

[@drmorqWarrenProject]

I understand, so many people love the lights and stage show of gulmore and co... but most will never 'get it'... because they dont listen to the album all at once... At the same time, the story isnt explained so much in the movie and so it must be said its about a child whos father was killed in WW2... when he was less than a year old... I hope you take the time personally to listen to the album so you can explain it to others. Than you for your time.@@TheWolffAndTheMelody

[@tommc3622]

The thing about Pink Floyd is that starting with Dark Side, they really weren't writing "songs" any longer. They began crafting albums. Singular pieces of music. Suites, broken into movements. Generally speaking, there is an underlying theme. "The Wall" is telling a specific story. But in every case, they are intended to be listened to in their entirety. Pink Floyd no longer did "singles". .... Try an album reaction. Other reactors have had success with the YT algorithm. This is the way the band members WANT you to experience the music. It seems to (often) get a pass. 🤷‍♂️ (Edit: If nothing else, you owe it to yourself to find a quiet spot, dim the lights, get comfortable, and listen to an entire album.)

[@petersteer8992]

Not the best choice for your second listen to PF as others have said. There would have been at least 12 much better examples. Whoever put you on to this one did you no favour and I hope it didn’t put you off too much. Poor, poor choice.

[@TheWolffAndTheMelody]

this was a patron recommendation. When they give me a song, I react lol
