It's difficult to call Pink Floyd music, because it's always so much more than that. It's an experience.

The music has still a lot of work to do to become Pink Floyd .

@me because Michael Anderson is my name. I bet humans one day will study Pink Floyds' music like they do with Beethoven, Bach, and Mozart.

Ladies and Gentlemen, JB is floating in space. It's ok though, we all are when listening to Floyd. Closing your eyes is almost the rule! Like a Law.

*joyful surprise* I LOVE that album, fellow Spiritualized fan! And Yes, we are all immersed in Floyd.

There is a second part to this piece...."Shine On You Crazy Diamond (Parts VI - IX)" (This track here was parts 1-5). It is equally as great as this one.

I believe it to be their most underrated track.

Pink Floyd is Legendary, they're an Experience! And the way David Gilmore speaks through his guitar into our souls is unmatched imo. No one plays with the feel and emotion like Gilmore does, not in Rock music.

Absolutely, I mean purely on ability and influence I'd put Hendrix as the greatest but Gilmour as you said just has a truly amazing way of conveying emotion and has to be on the very short list of people just behind Hendrix

He shows those bullshit shredders that one carefully placed note played with feel means more than a hundred musically empty notes a second

This song is a tribute to co founding member Syd Barrett, who the band had to let go after his heavy use of hallucinogenics like LSD, etc, turned him into a mental and eventually physical wreck. It hurt the band to see their friend go down like this, but efforts to help him were futile.

Not sure where you are in your journey through Floyd, but just want to pass along how important it is how you "listen" to this particular band...most Pink Floyd albums, are merely one long "song", back in those days we called it "Concept Albums" one song morphed right into the next, creating a non-stop experience, which was welcomed back in the 70's, since 420 was still "underground" at this time...glad you are experiencing the Floyd...Rock ON!

Floyd's music means you must first throw away your brain because you won't need it. The hollow is then flooded with emotions and feelings you never knew you had. This is usually followed by a cup of tea and a nice lie down before you repeat the entire process.

This one is about their former singer, Syd Barrett, who happened to wander into the studio while they were recording the album, and nobody recognised him. His weight had ballooned and he'd shaved his hair and eyebrows off.

oh...

There are those that create and play music and then there is Pink Floyd that create music and bring it to life. Pink floyd is so unique that should have their own genre. Absolute legends

All Floyd is worthy of closing your eyes to It deserves the attention

James, the entire album "wish you were here" is also a masterpiece. You've previously reacted to the title track which is an absolute classic. Suggest you listen to the next track that they were transitioning into at the end of the clip "Welcome to the machine". Best wishes

This whole song is a masterpiece but that saxophone at the end is something I will never forget and want to hear on my deathbed.

Pulse 94. Doesn't even matter which song, every single one is transcendental. Sorrow, High Hopes, Coming Back to Life, Keep Talking, Comfortably Numb, Run Like Hell are some favorites.

That is a great concert! Every song was fire!

Pink Floyd was formed in 1965... their (most likely) last album was "The Endless River" in 2014. PF had 15 studio albums... 3 live albums, 9 compilation albums not to mention multiple live dvds and solo albums performed by below members of the band. Syd Barrett (short-lived founder; guitar plus) the originator and quirky eccentric; inevitably the consequential muse. * January 6, 1946 (rip 2006) Roger Waters (bass) was the cultivator (seed sower), the lyrically conceptual prodigy, secondary vocal and co-maestro of songwriting * September 6, 1943 (age 79 years) David Gilmour (guitar) was the placidity, guitar virtuoso, the silky smooth voice and co-maestro; the equilibrium. * March 6, 1946 (age 76 years) Richard Wright (keyboards) was the essential underlying symmetry; musical nurturer. Occasional singer. * July 28, 1943 (rip 2008) Nick Mason (drums) was the heartbeat, structure and foundation; the sole member involved from the emergence of PF to the last recording. * January 27, 1944 (age 78 years) FYI: The following Pink Floyd albums are Concept Albums (all songs together tell a complete story)... Dark Side Of The Moon (1973), Wish You Were Here (1975), Animals (1977) and The Wall (1979). The Final Cut (1983) is ify, as it was the last album with Roger Waters; leaving in 1985. *search on Wiki the album title to get the story behind the concept.

I love how much you love music, JB. And Pink Floyd is the greatest of all time.

I remember in high school getting baked and just laying there listening to Pink Floyd with my eyes closed. Out of body experience is the perfect description.

On this album (Wish You Were Here): Roger Waters (bass guitar, vocals, lyrics), Richard Wright (piano, organ, electric pianos & clavinet, analog synthesizers--Moogs, ARPs, VCS3, Sinthi AK, vocals), Nick Mason (drums, percussion, tape effects), and David Gilmour (acoustic and electric guitars, vocals), with Dick Parry blowing the baritone and tenor saxophones, and Venetta fields singing harmony vocals.

This song, like most Pink Floyd song, is like a movie score. The music (and few lyrics) guides you through your own life's experiences and the movie occurs in your head. It's for you alone!

David Gilmour - Guitar, lead vocals Rodger Waters - Bass, lead vocals Richard Wright - keyboard, vocals Nick Mason - Drums, vocals This song, in fact the whole album of "Wish You Were Here", is dedicated to Pink Floyd's co-founder, Syd Barrett. He was starting to show his mental illness (schizophrenia) and subsequently left the band.

Gotta do parts 6-9 soon! Congrats on nearly 100K…been here since you were around 1.5K 🤗

This is all about former bandmember Syd Barrett .... Syd Barrett is the metaphorical "Crazy Diamond."

Can't wait for the last part ,6-9 love it.....

I used this on a mix tape, so that it woke me up every morning! So much more restful than an alarm clock!! IMHO It's still the best commentary on what it's like when you lose a friend to drugs!

Pink Floyd is an English rock band formed in London in 1964. They became a leading band of the progressive rock genre. They are one of the best-selling music artists of all time. "Wish You Were Here", "The Dark Side Of The Moon" & "The Wall" are among the best-selling albums of all time. They have a huge library of music. Some of their big hits were "Money", "Time", "Wish You Were Hear", "Comfortably Numb", "Another Brick In The Wall", "See Emily Play", "Not Now John", "On The Turning Away", "High Hopes", "Hey You", "The Great Gig In The Sky", "Us & Them" etc.

Rock on young brother! Let the music take you....love and hugs sweet man.

This song is going to trip you out! One of their most transcendental songs.

The storm would enhance this already great song!

You don't simply hear a Pink Floyd song, you feel it with your whole body.

I listen to a lot of old school Blues. Especially southern blues, country blues from way back when. That style is really at its core about expressing emotion but also taking yourself to a different place. I respect and appreciate all those dudes who created that genre. But how, in what universe, is it possible that a white middle class English dude is able to capture all of that, pull it in, and be even more soulful? I have no explanation. But Gilmour is a gift to all of us.

I think this is one of the best songs ever recorded. It's really beautiful. You can feel how relaxed they were making the whole Wish You Were Here album. Two years after releasing their most famous album "The Dark Side of the Moon" and becoming truly famous, they took on this project with vigor, wanting to celebrate Syd and to "lean in" a bit to greedy recording studios and producers. Brilliant work! I like it the best of all their albums. Unfortunately, after that, it only went downhill with their good collaboration.

This is on the same level as Beethoven or Bach. well into the future people who are yet to be born will be listening to this masterpiece when all of today's bands are forgotten

Ace choice JB. Don't make me cry again though.

First time listening to any Pink Floyd song is absolutely mandatory on headphones! 💜💜💜💜

Yes, it's actually better if you close your eyes because the video is a little distracting. Part 2 of the song is at the end of the album.

Love Pink Floyd.💜

Love your reaction! I wish you do Pulse concert, you’ll be amazed.

When Pink Floyd really hits someone deep inside they first close their eyes and then the goosebumps follow, that's when you know you are really experiencing Floyd.

Glad you enjoyed it. It brings out a lot of old memories for me. Those were great times.

Pink Floyd is the greatest musical journey you will ever have. Try their album dark side of the moon.

"Electric Special!" A new word for the modern music lexicon. Brilliant spontaneity. Good to see you again. Merry Christmas!

So glad you're listening to some good music again :)

JB what a beautiful reaction brother. This is the one amazing masterpiece of many for Pink Floyd. I believe people will be listening to Pink Floyd's music 100 to hundred years from now.

Pink Floyd with blues.

Amazing track James. I have to confess i haven't heard this many times, but i do remember listening to it back in the Christmas of 1982 when me and a few friends gathered around the radio to listen to the Rock 100, and even then, they only played half of it. Love to hear you react to more Genesis. 'Mama', 'Follow you follow me', or 'Blood on the rooftops'. xxx And just to add, the top 3 on that countdown was Genesis - Suppers Ready at no.3, Pink Floyd - Shine on you crazy diamond at no.2 and at no.1 was Led Zeppelin with Stairway to heaven x

David Gilmour is one of the best guitar players in the world!!! I wish I had better headphones. I lay in the recliner with my headphones, crank this up & close my eyes & have a trip with no drugs. Pink Floyd is an experience! They put on a fantastic concert. I am so glad I was able to go to one. There was a guy slumped over in an aisle seat, unconscious through the whole concert. What a waste. I don't know if you've listened to THE WALL but if you haven't, my suggestion is to watch the movie. It will make more sense. If you haven't listened to DARK SIDE OF THE MOON, listen to it all at once, not one song here & there. It's better that way.

I thought it was illegal to listen to Pink Floyd with your eyes open..

🎼It’s hard to believe that David Gilmore is 78 years old. Shine on you crazy diamond!☮️💟

This song always breaks my heart. ❤

James, I love to see your soul soar.

So good to see you back!

This young reactor gets it. This is not something you can casually listen to. not like your 3 minute catchy pop tunes. You are taken into Pink Floyds world

As always great music.💘💝💗 Sounds awesome!❤❤❤👏👏👏👏

That guitar!

Caught you in the act of so many emotions :). You said you were lost in the music and also said it was an experience. Many say Pink Floyd is an experience, some say it is a journey. Both are correct. I call it an adventure which includes both. An adventure, where as long as some songs are, you wished it kept going

Ive seen this LIVE..it's an experience.

“The guitar is singing.” Yep, you got it. Peace brother.

It was amazing to share that journey with you!

I love listening to this while playing Elite Dangerous. Just flying cross the galaxy and hitting a jump right as the guitar kicks in :aawyeah:

Brother James! 👊

Amazing to go on the journey with you! 🙏

Pink Floyd is a cerebral experience! I'm so glad I got to see Roger Waters in concert! By the way Nick Mason is touring. I have his latest c.d. I see you're almost at 100 thousand subscribers! AWESOME!

Seems that you are gilmoured or watered. I got the first vinyl from this band in 1976 when i was 13 years old. A colleague of my mom thought that it was Rock Music when she bought it. She did not like it and gave it to my mom. The moment i heard Wish you were here the first time changed my life. Greetings from Germany.

Please listen to the song comfortably numb by pink floyd. But you have to do the Pulse live version because it's on another level. Best guitar solo of all time 💯

Yup -OMG

Lead Vocals: David Gilmour's guitar.

I feel how you look every time I listen to this, brother. This one never gets old. Play it loud. Let your neighbors experience it too! 1😉

Back in the 70"s everybody would get all smoked up put on headphones turn off the lights put on a black light and a lava lamp and sit back in a bean back and chill

I just watched you react to "Inside Looking Out"1969. Somehow you are pulling up the heavy hitters. I have a feeling you would like "Get Ready" by Rare Earth also.

Glad you enjoyed it!!!

Sid Barrett lost his mind, he was a member of Pink, but LSD took his mind to a different place...sad, waste of talent. This song was dedicated to him.

Dio creò Leo Fender perché creasse la chitarra elettrica e poi creò David Gilmour perché la suonasse 🎸

I think you broke the strings on your air guitar

I like the sound, but not the animation. Too warped and heavy.

You should smoke a bong before listening to this.
