On the original album, the vocals were sung by Claire Torry, someone local they brought in and paid 30 pounds and is an interesting story. Probably the biggest gig of her life and she didn't even know it at the time.

This song IS a vibe...it is a song without words. At the beginning there is a recording of a man saying he is not afraid of death.....Why should he be afraid? It happens to everyone...Then you have three stellar singers giving an emotional rendition of the stages of dying......showing fear, anger, grief ....and in the end, acceptance. Brilliant, challenging, and sometimes uncomfortable. Kudos to those singers.

Album version is sung by one woman Clare Tory but other than that its the same. Definitely hits harder if you listen to the whole album start to finish!

In the studio version, the vocals are done by one woman. Claire Tory.

Nothing to do with live version? You say that like the live version wasn't amazing?

It took three ladies to recreate what one woman did on the original..... the end of life...brilliant

As everyone has said, the studio recording was one of those "one take ... OMG!" stories. That's the definitive version.

Best song on whole album. So much emotion without singing a word 😮

My father took me to this concert at the age of 12, Earl's Court, London, and I shall never forget what I witnessed that night. He told me that we weren't going to listen to a concert, we were going to have an experience. Boy, the old fart wasn't wrong. What a lucky boy I was, although I didn't understand why there were all these old people about the place. I was raised on Floyd, Cream, John Mayal, Queen, and Zeppelin, but Pink Floyd stuck with me the most. At that age, I was in awe of the music and lacked the emotional intelligence to really appreciate their art but instinctively knew that there was something more to it, and every time I return to albums such as DSoTM and Wish You Were Here they take on new meaning. Granted, the studio versions are considered to be the ultimate listening experience but the live experience melted my prepubescent brain to mush. I dread to think what the lighting budget was. Although we have our differences these days, I will always be grateful to my father for sharing and introducing me to the music he loves so much. By the way, I encourage you to listen to Shine On You Crazy Diamond parts I-V and parts VI-IX, another journey and story that will touch your soul and give you the chills, assuming that you haven't already. Thanks for sharing with us (thumbs up from me) and enjoy the journey. Much love.

God bless all that hear this masterpiece for the first time

This is good and interesting visually, but you really need to hear the studio version of this. In fact for most songs off of this album, do the studio versions first. You need to hear the original production. It actually makes you appreciate the live versions more when you see how well they're able to riplicate the amazing studio quality. This should be applied for all of their songs.

This is how the song is , you don’t need words when you have a beautiful voice ☮️💜

You do not know what you are missing. The album version with Clare Tory on Dark Side of the Moon is the version that will get you feeling something. This is good but it only took ONE Clare to do that vocal. She is incredible and she makes you feel things I don't feel in this version. You will cry.

This song is about passing on and every time I listen to it tears flow down my face.

Yes doing the whole albums to Pink Floyd is pretty necessary. Pink Floyd has but 1 song, continuously playing and blending into the next.

Nice effort but Clare Tory's original album version is the GOAT.

When experiencing a Pink Floyd song for the first time, ALWAYS listen to the album version first. Take it from a PF fan since the 70s, album first. This song followed "TIME" on the album, and the two are connected and should be experienced together for best appreciation. "THE WALL" is a story told through a series of songs, so that is definitely one you'll have a greater experience with if you listen to the full album. Yes, they did make a film for the album, but again, ALBUM FIRST! Trust me, my friend, I'm steering you right. Welcome to the fan club! ;)

Hey, Lois! I feel your pain. :) I listened to the original for so many years that I don't think the angels in Heaven could top Clare Torry's performance. I do think that these three ladies gave us a wonderful performance in their own right, though, and I applaud the courage of anyone who has listened to the original and still has the guts to try and follow Ms. Torry. I hope Mr. Biz does check out the original sometime.

Yes,,,ALL of the PF albums need to be listened to in entirety,,,,start to finish. 👍👍👍😎

On your own no KZread, headphone on the whole album. The Dark Side Of The Moon. The way it was in the old days. Side 1, "Speek To Me/Breathe", "On The Run", "Time:, "The Great Gig In The Sky", then take a two minute, as if you were turning the vinyl album over. Collect your thoughts and move on to other side Side 2, "Money", "Us And Them", "Ant Colour You Like", "Brain Damage", "Eclipse",

The girls nailed it. From left to right, the late Claudia Fontaine, Sam Brown, and my dear friend, Durga McBroom

If you're gonna do a whole PF album, it's best to cut it up into 2 and 3 song segments to avoid the copyright hassle. For example on the Dark Side of the Moon album: the first 3 songs, Speak to Me, Breathe (in the air), and On the Run in the first segment...Time and Great Gig in the Sky for the second...Money and Us and Them for the 3rd and finish it out with the last 3 songs Any Colour You Like, Brain Damage and Eclipse.

yes! most definitely watch the movie!!!! i've watched it perhaps a hundred times in my life and almost always notice something new.

Ok, my first reaction was "you should do the studio version"... But then I realized that it's Ok, because now you can listen to the studio version of "Time/Great Gig in the Sky" together... which is the best way. These girls did a great job on this... but now just imagine it done even better, and all by one person... It is Epic!

Death throes.....stunning...

Keep reacting to whole albums please, that's way l subscribed, especially Pink Floyd, their albums are a must, you have to listen to them from beginning to end to get the full experience (thrill!!!!)🤟😜

💯 Great choice Biz‼🔥 🤯 Other worldly for sure‼

Another Legend group, "The Wall" is a must react, an iconic song. Thank you for the reaction.

I personally like this performance best, and the original studio version next. It's a matter of taste, it is not the same with different vocalists. The whole album is is a nice experience, crank it up and turn down the lights. It definitely flows.

Yes, 👏🏼 ♥️🔥🎤🎶This song is about after you die, and what you think about before you die. The great gig in the sky means heaven, and how even when you die, you still have music to play (hence the great GIG in the sky).

Yes listen to the whole album it doesn’t make a difference and also listen to the whole animals album that is fantastic my favorite part of the animals album is the dogs because it’s real life is really what happens in life in my 76 years believe me I seen it Liz the queen

This song is about the 3 emotions around death . Anger , Sorrow and acceptance .

Obviously the studio version is a piece of music history… But in this version, I fell in love with Samantha Brown when I saw this, and she never said a word! That’s my kind of girl😂

It amazes me that people watch this sort of videos

I've seen Pink Floyd in 1987,1994,Roger Waters(of Pink Floyd) in 1999,2000,2014.. This is the Great Gig In The Sky off Dark Side of the Moon album,it original here as on album,done the same way You should listen to Dark Side of the Moon album start to finish,its a story Just keep in mind,"There is no dark side of the moon,in fact,it is all dark"

Waking up here this morning and the first thought in my head is that you need to do this song with Clare Torrey. BiZ-you will feel it in your heart mind and soul. This is going to bug me now so I need you to do it with Claire. ASAP

The song is supposed to represent the stages of grieving and death without words, the studio version was recorded by Clair Torey ( may have spelt her surname wrong) in 2.5 takes after which she put her cardigan on and went home. The live versions are usually taken by the backing singers ( 3 ) such is the quality of everything to do with Pink Floyd. There is no doubt that Clair’s version is a masterpiece. I do however think the live versions is equally good but for different reasons, eg at pulse concert they had to sing for about 1 hr before this track and another 1.5 hrs after this track.

God Bless Claire Tory!!

The name Pink Floyd is a combination of the first names of two black American bluesmen named Pink Anderson and Floyd Council

they music was Rick Wright ( keyboard) song . was originally for a movie but the director said it was to sad for what he wanted

The album version.

If you want something from Pink Floyd even more meaningful try out "When the tigers broke free" which tells the story of Roger Waters loss off his father . It was originally written for the album The Wall but wasn't released until the album " The Final Cut " came out although a version was included in video featuring Bob Geldof ( from the Boomtown Rats ) before that titled The Wall

When I pass into the next world, there will be no funeral. I just ask my friends to watch a sunset listening to this while remembering me.

Dark Side of the Moon is a rock opera, a concept that became popular in this period. The songs on the album flow together with no real break except between songs on side 1 and side 2. To set the stage for this rock opera, the first song on side 1 contains snippets of songs that follow. The song preceding Great Gig is Time. Best way to listen to either gem is play them back to back as the album intends them to be played. Great Gig is last song on side 1 so there is a natural break at end of Great Gig as songs continue on side 2. This live version is good, but magic was made when Claire Tory entered the recording studio and improvised the vocals on Great Gig IN ONE TAKE. I suggest you wait to hear the album version of Great Gig when you decide to cover the entire album. Every song is great but my favorites from the album are Great Gig, Time, and Money.

I’ve listened to Floyd since the early 70’s and I enjoy the Pulse version over the studio version both great but love Floyd live!!!

You should listen to the original studio in its entirety on hi fi stereo or with headphones. The live show though good is a different musical experience! Thanks for sharing your love of good music! 🙏

I'm well up for the albums

Yes. Yes. Yes. The Wall, the movie. And Dark Side of the Moon as an album. Please. When you get to the end of Dark Side of the Moon, there's a little song called Eclipse. The lyrics are very rich. IMO, the moon is the ego, and the sun is God. I recommend you listen to eclipse with that metaphor in mind.

Normally I always prefer live versions over studio versions. But even though these vocalists and the ones at the «Delicate sound of thunder» tour does a great job, Clare Torry’s vocals is out of this world. Fitting for a song about dying. And she did it alone, first take. The piano part was made for a riot scene in a movie, but didn’t make it. Luckily.

Should have started with the album! 👍✌️🎼🎵😎

Life, anger, sorrow, acceptance and death

Biding my time - PF. THeres a magnific solo from gilmour. (fewpeople did) Near the end - davi gilmour solo album. THeres a beautiful solo in the last seconds. And maybe the lyrics are for Roger. High Hopes - a lot of people did that.. maybe you dont need to react, but check it out. SHeep - from animals album - top. few people did sorrow - pulse its the best free four - from the obscured by clouds careful with that axe eugene - i think anybody did that live version where gilmour has his shirt with the 62 and his name in it. Fucking crazy song green is the colour - theres an old live version where gilmuor is with some white/grey shirt ... nice song. few people did theres an album called "atom heart mother". and a song with "funky" in the name.. very blues. This album is strange but gold. theres a song called narrow way with 3 parts. THe 3rd is the best but the others are pure psycodelic anyway... im a huge fan of PF and I want to see people reacting to other songs than comfortably numb and time. They are great but everybody does that...

Don't feel disappointed with the Pulse version. Any Live Pulse song is amazing.

The album version has vocals also 👍this live one is so good tho 🤘

Yes the LP is a story...

🤘🏻😎

Thats Sam Brown ya'll! She had hits in the 80s. 'You better stop' Damn she still got them pipes! 😃👌 Clare still the best and original bro.

Suggestion: pink Floyd Animals album in 3 parts, WITH LYRICS.

The blond vocalist is Sam Brown. She had a hit of her own called stop. just saying.

Do the studio version

Dude you really Really REALLY got more if you do Side 1 & then Side 2, of the album The Dark Side of the Moon exactly as it was intended. Think of it like a book... you can read random chapters but you miss the overall context. (worth having the lyrics to hand but don't let that be a distraction) I know that sounds like a alot of effort but in this busy busy world it's well worth stopping, kicking back and just let each side of the album play through. Especially as tracks transition into each other and "Breathe (in the air)" has a reprise right on end of the later track "Time" which in turn transitions straight into "The Great Gig in the Sky" It's a deep rabbit hole so if you do it then buckle up your seat Dorethy, Kansas is about to go bye bye 🤣😎🤣

If for no other reason, you have to love a band that gives the back up vocalists a song to be up front. I get it, it didn't start out that way...but clearly it ended this way.

Please, do a reaction to the following; Dream Theater Live Scenes from New York album and the track 'John & Theresa's solo spot'. Awesome, guitar and voice only track.

Please redo this! You have to do the original recorded version of this!!

Do the one from the album. One woman vs 3 doing the same thing.

Im sure they broke this song up between the 3 of them to save their voices. But yes like everyone else on here said Claire Torry did the ENTIRE studio version

Just my opinion but I reckon "A Delicate Sound of Thunder" version is better than this...Rachel Fury..Durga McBroom and Machan Taylor absolutely slay it. 💯🔥

Emotional!

The best way to experience "The Wall", is listen to the entire album, no video. After you wrap your mind around that, watch the movie. You can thank me later... 👍

If you really want to take a PF ride listen to the Animals album.

Not trying to sound condacending but the original Care Torry song on the album makes these singers look like a shadow of her performance.

Oh my friend you have to listen to the original...

On the album, Claire Tory gives the song dimension, Feeling, Heart and soul. This version put me sleep. these girls can`t hold a candle to the one and only, Claire Tory.

for dark side of the moon you can do it in 2 reactions, 5 songs each......personally I don't care to much for The Wall....it's too disturbing.....the albums Wish You Were Here or Animals would be better.

My own band's keyboard player also plays in a Pink Floyd tribute band called Darkside. The female vocalist they use is better than these in the video. She does the entire set on her own, including this song.

And really not even close....listen to the album version...just for yourself

The Studio version is better IMO!

This is a bridging song between two vocals songs on.Dark Side of the Moon A bigger slice of the alb.um will reveal the full effect

...entire DARK SIDE OF THE MOON immediately is the only way to go... (eyes closed, mind clear) IMMEDIATELY!!!!

My advice, Do the Wall album, not the movie! The movie is way too distracting!!! The movie was no where near as good as the Wall concert!!!🎼🎵🎶👌👍✌️😎

Definitely not as good as on the album. This comes right after “Time” which to me is like the transition from this plane to another. But no one plays them together.

Nice try, but...nope, nope, nope. The Clare Torry studio album version is IT!!

Bro, PF album versions are ALWAYS much better than their live stuff. This must be experienced off the "Dark side of the Moon" album not this. You need to experience that whole album a - z. No one can compare to Clare Torrey, the vocalist on the album. I apologize but I will not even watch this video. It's not the whole PF band [no Roger Waters, the founder of the band) and it's not as good as the album.
