  • Great track

  • thank you

  • this is fucking perfect

  • really thought was jimmy playing,sounds like him

  • David Gilmour...gave the light to this..

    it s just awsome!

  • The guitar track on this song is the exact same track used on Pete Townshend's song "White City Fighting" .... It is the exact same tape of guitar; not just the same notes played on two different recordings...The Same Recording for the guitar track.. Just an interesting fact.

  • @YesOuiSi Also the lyrics "the daffodils spring into bloom..." is the same melody/riff of the bass solo on Townsends White City. I discovered this many years ago and played for my friends and they said "well, maybe it's the same..." I just shook my head in disappointment. Non-musicians...

  • Anathema - Hope *Originally by roy harper*

    damn what a great discovery .... Related videos : Nick drake

    What another great discovery...anathema is just that awesome ^_^

    A David Gilmour & Roy Harper Composition

    Jimmy Page's guitar

    absolute heaven

  • @pigsontherun

    You're completely wrong. Before this album came out I was with Roy in Forest Hill Lodge, played carts smoked and he took his guitar and played this song he wrote. The guitar you here is played by his son.

    I'm from the Netherlands, there we use shag to smoke with paper. His cover for the album is original a packet of RIZLA+ paper to make sigarets from, his idear, my packet of sigaret paper......

  • @nanette20011 did jimmy page played in this album?

  • @pigsontherun

    Yes he did, but the song "HOPE" is Roy, and his son played that background guitar.

    He came in an old citroën DS with a france jong girlfriend to vissit his son in Malbourough, Forrest Hill Lodge,

    which was my sisers, his son lived there, and I was there at the right moment.

  • @pigsontherun

    For more information, look at the site from RIZLA sigaret paper I think only to get in the Netherlands.

    Other numbers Roy did with Jimmy, David Gilmore was not on this album, and you're right, Roy sung at the pink-floyd album "Wish you were Here" have a sigar......

  • Yes Jimmy played on some songs, not hope.....

  • first time i heard this 'song' it was Anathema's cover. I loved it and i thought it resembles Pink Floyd 's '80 songs .

    Now I learned this was a David Gilmour composition.

    Oh my God.

  • wow. I only knew the anathema version. which is already hauntingly beautiful. this is awesomee

  • Conoci este tema gracias al cover de Anathema....

    :D

    Gran CANCION....

  • lol- can't help hearing the beginning riff of hangman after the end of this- and I haven't owned a copy of this LP since about 1987

  • @SuperBeanson Definitely has the Hangman hanging at the end.

  • Looking back at you from this century...

  • What more could I want? Roy's lyrics his unbelievable voice and not forgetting Jimmy's guitar. Absolute heaven..

  • Roy Harper is the singer in "Have a cigar", right?

    Roy Harper canta nel pezzo "Have a cigar", giusto?

  • @vampiroangelico That's correct.

  • @vampiroangelico Indeed it is. You should listen to his son. He is a genius.

  • just wow !!!! great song unbelievable

  • Molto bella!

  • Roy Harper is a genius...I've loved his music since the early '70's. Thanks for this video since the first great video of this song has been removed!

  • First time I heard the Original version. Its okay. I prefer Anathemas version. Actually, I really like Antimatters version better. but this okay.

  • Is it the implication of the album artwork that many joints were smoked in the making thereof??

  • roy harper...genius..simple as that..bless you fella,

  • Page's Les Paul sucks on this song, it's obviously a gilmourish song, it needs a light and bright sound. What about using a stratocaster?

  • i heard this song from anathema first and i didnt know about this for years. when i heard it, what the hell, i have to admit it, anathema are great but you have to give the credit to the right person. This version is in a simple way so...pure! its excellent! I will stick to anathema's version but, damn, it will never be the same after this...

  • Not underrated but, to quote Roy himself "merely unheard".

  • i bought this album as it came out... it still has burn marks on it lol.... peace

  • great version the best iam glad i found it .

    nice one for posting .

  • Years ago we used to skin up on this album cover and listen

  • I don't want to diminish Anathema's achievements but... it seems to me (well, you know I am a great fan of this band) that they are great in performing covers ... my respect for this band after watching this video has slightly dropped down :/ Great song and this version is ... perfect!!!

  • David Gilmour ha composto la musica della terza traccia, "Hope", mentre Harper ha scritto il testo, e Nick Harper (il figlio allora sedicenne), ha suonato la chitarra solista in questo brano. Una versione suonata con ritmo più veloce e liriche differenti, compare con il titolo di "White City Fighting" nell'album White City: A Novel di Pete Townshend.

    Una cover di "Hope", con "Bad Speech" come introduzione, è presente nell'album Eternity del gruppo metal Anathema. (wikipedia)

  • @apparentesistenza ¡Gracias por la lección! Este álbum es sencillamente increible. ¿Dónde estuvo oculto desde 1985 a la fecha?

  • years ago we used to roll good ones on this cover and then just listen.. still has a few burns.. lol amazing track.. chesterfield...

  • già :)

    ha collaborato anche con i Pink Floyd e lo stesso Gilmour ha partecipato alla realizzazione di diverse altre sue canzoni. I Led Zeppelin gli hanno dedicato una canzone (Hats off to Roy Harper).

    E' ingiustamente troppo poco conosciuto secondo me...è uno dei miei artisti preferiti.

  • @apparentesistenza

    TI STIMO.

  • Alla chitarra c'è Gilmour
