Roger Waters - The Bravery Of Being Out Of Range (live)

[ezeqyell]

Don Henley does the backup voice for this song in the album. Now that's some epic stuff.

[Sunhillow1]

Brilliant! Thanks for posting this - my favourite song from 'Amused To Death'. Saw Roger performing 'The Wall' at the O2 two weeks ago - totally mind blowing! I've always loved Dave Gilmour's voice and guitar playing but Roger has really won my respect with his performance. Just wish they could end their differences and get back together. Legends, the pair of them! RIP the genuis Rick Wright too.

[AidrianODoughaill]

oh rod1!

[exohumanvideo]

Roger waters. Total creative genius.

Referring to Pink Floyd (and watered-down Division Bell music), he once said "You either get it or you don't"

Gilmour's a good guitarist, by Waters IS Pink Floyd.

[vintagesteel09]

This song has always "Haunted Me" since it came out in the early 90's when I was attending a Senior Armor Leaders Course. I served as a Tank Gunner, Commander and Platoon Sergeant for many years in the Army....youthful visions of glory fade when the reality of Close Combat is painfully displayed by the flag draiped over a box with a good friend inside....

[mrdavidpeter01]

Best ever.........

[himtnman]

[gummybear100]

For all the politicians who are so quick to put other's in harm's way.

[gilmourish]

The other guitar player looks like a douchebag :/

[themizaru]

@gilmourish can you describe "douchebag"?

[MrBillyBatts1]

Thanks Roger for calling out Bush SR and JR!

[neillagarry]

@MrBillyBatts1 I never listen to that with Jr & Sr in mind. Good Shot down range

[utandaydar]

@MrBillyBatts1 well, this song came out in 1992...so, I would say it is more timeless and rather a case of astute commentary on an understanding of economics/political dynamics than a statement on any particular figurehead.

[FRANCISCOJOSEALMEIDA]

Fucking great !!!!!!!

[schimendes]

the best !!!

[kalinast]

Greatest performer ever!!!!

[shathay]

perfect

[johnartmaster]

what an amazing genus Roger is he needs to tour this album next , IMO his best !!!!

[sticklift]

4 people are out of range...

[WRECKED25]

you can only expect shit from assholes - the heck with them - THIS VIDEO ROCKS ty for posting!

IN MEMORY OF MY DEAR BROTHER FRANKIE, WHO PASSED AWAY WAY TOO SOON!! 3-25-75-11-10-06 - .......HEY OLD MAN BILLY WHO YA GONNA KILL NEXT??? WITH THE BRAVERY OF BEING OUTTA RANGE!! HUH?????

[timeandtimeagain777]

i pity the objects that clicked on dislike - roger tells it like it is.

[007bondspy]

@timeandtimeagain777 yeah a piss is a piss and a shit is a shit

[wookie128]

Amused to death is a great piece of history.

Outraging compositions and musicians.

My God what do I love this album since it came out in 1992.

[WRECKED25]

HEY BILL D. WHO YA GONNA KILL NEXT????? A MATTER OF TIME BEFORE YOU GO TO PRISON YOU OLD 55 YR OLD *UCK!!!!!!

[MariaGanip]

the best!

[rollopa]

just love those laser guided bombs.. they're really great for righting wrongs..

[gummybear100]

I dedicate this to Georgie boy and Dick Cheney. I think they can relate to this song like nobody else.

[guildensternisalive]

did the drummer tour w clapton?

[daveveerman]

@guildensternisalive Yes I am sure he has played with Clapton, what time frame/concert are you thinking about?

[guildensternisalive]

@daveveerman

I think he was around at the "robert johnson" sessions. but not only

[anamgify]

@guildensternisalive don`t think so.. drummer Graham Broad it`s a legend He´s touring with Roger Waters before and with The Wall live in berlin 1990 and he`s touring this Wall too !!! AMAZING

[ConnieLynchitz]

Fairweather-Low demoted to bass on this one whilst good ol' Rog poses with his shiny red Fender.

[fourbid1]

The Navy and the Airforce full of young 20-30 year old pilots dropping tons of ordinance over and over on Iraq or a particular "warzone" and going back home the same day to have a bite at the McDonalds. While our country sits at a bar or at home watching the event take place like a sport, perfectly safe. you can play the game We play the game with The Bravery of Being out of Range. That's my take of the song in a nutshell. Waters can really tell a story from the outside looking in.

[guitbibble]

@fourbid1 That's absolutely right. I read an interview with Waters in a Musician magazine from the '90s, and he was none to happy about innocent people being killed in the Middle East.

[PBUDAY88]

@guitbibble what he think now

[dmlspartan]

The song is based around the commanders in world war 1 and 2 who stood back and watched as there men went into battle.

[spar232]

they didn't have laser guided bombs in world wars i and ii

[dmlspartan]

@spar232 ok. they didnt but that thats still the story line for this song. i love roger and pink floyd.

[vkram8]

roger is god simple

[Comfortab1yNumB]

I wish PPL of all generation realize one day what this song really means..we are so much blinded ith our self centered life style that we tend not to see anything else //

[firebird16may1979]

@Comfortab1yNumB ... You are absolutely right

[MrZombieLover]

@Comfortab1yNumB would you mind explaining what this song "really means" then? I think it's a great song, but I'm not too sure about the meaning behind the lyrics. :p

[DAVINOENTERPRISES]

Badass



[jonnay99]

the supporting singer on the far right is a total babe

[88mpny]

@jonnay99 she's married to Doyle Bramhall III the left handed guitarist.

[jonnay99]

@88mpny the dream is dead :(

[gordbard]

@jonnay99 susannah Melvoin

[louager]

I can only encourage everyone to buy. In The Flesh tour DVD is a masterpiece

[ReverendEd330]

Badass song, still timely



[ReverendEd330]

Badass song, still timely with the current group running Washington

[drumsRbetter666]

wow i love the chorus

as well as this whole album, such a genius!

[cutthroatterrorist]

Old man what the hell you gona kill next? Old timer who you gona kill next? I looked over jordan and what did I see? I saw a US marine in a pile of debris I swam in your pools I lay under your palm trees I looked in the eyes of the indian who lay on the federal building steps Through the range finder over the hill I saw the frontline boys poppin their pills THUMBS UP IF YOU LIKE!

[cutthroatterrorist]

You have a natural tendency to squeeze off a shot your good for the party you wear the right mask your old but you still like a laugh in the locker room you cant abide change your at home on the range You opened the suit case behind the old workings to show off the magnum you deafend the canyon a comfort of a friend only up stage to the end by the uzi machine gun does the recoil remind you of sex?

[Hiddosch]

Stop the flamewars and start listening to what you came for!

[Grantrus71]

I can show you what reminds one of sex you little tart....in a most memorable manner.

[nWo24life]

This song, like many on this album, shows that Roger was the heart and soul of Pink Floyd's writing. The two albums PF made without him also prove this. This entire concert is amazing.

[AxlMidas]

@nWo24life Cheers! Roger Waters was Pink Floyd!

[angrydoug]

I used to worship Pink Floyd when I was a teenager in the early 70s. Saw Pink Floyd on their first U.S. tour and many times afterwards. But now, I just think Roger Waters sucks.  He's a self-absorbed idealist that can't sing.

[jgmaddog]

@angrydoug are you out of your mind? Roger is the most brilliant song writers ever and a great singer. Pink Floyd is not the same with out him

[angrydoug]

@jgmaddog I'm not out of my mind but I'm pretty sure Roger Waters is.

[neil1963creed]

@jgmaddog ah how refreshing....someone with a brain and a true spotter of genius when they see it. Amen my friend!

[usandthem73]

@gordbard katie kissoon.



[dangerfield5000]

regardless, roger waters musical and poetic genius is a thing of the past. moved over for strippers and fags, god AMERICA LICKS ASSHOLE!

[TheUtubesuxass]

@Vladmiracle you seem to be missing the bit about "ON THEIR OWN" you thick cunt.

[adamio360]

You know what'd be great. If people actually commented ON THE VIDEO rather than try and argue with an obviously incoherent and stubborn moron who gets all of his idea via his Dad or late night television. With a name like "TheUtubesuxass" it's surprising how much of a need this person has to express his opinion over a non-social-networking site. Of course, you are entitled to your opinion, however wrong it may be, but stop insulting others for disagreeing with you.

[TheUtubesuxass]

@adamio360 how about bollocks you illiterate cunt.

[anamgify]

@gordbard She`s PP Arnold

[anamgify]

@gordbard It`s ok ! Regards for you too

[porkusmag]

How a fine way to criticize US and other imperious without even mentioning them.

[trezpazz]

@porkusmag you got that right...nice observation Man......Thanks to America and the Ist Amendment ( freedom of Speach) ..Mr Rogers you can run his mouth...Think we got the message...time for you to switch gears...start writing love songs..besides that sur...e is great to see 2 of the best guitarist alive Snowy White and Doyle Bramhall II @ 0.18.

[porkusmag]

@trezpazz I don´t care about the first Amendment ´cause I´m not American nor English. And 4 sure, Roger care less about the 1st Amendment. Why you guys tends to think that all inventions are yours?

[trezpazz]

@porkusmag You should care call it whatever the fuck you want its about freedom of speach...the only person who say what you did tells me you lost your rights a long time ago....Im not American but you have to admit they are the free ist ppl on the planet...and it seems most people are jeoulous...hey I love Roger...hey i dont make the rules but America runs the world....get used to it.

[porkusmag]

@trezpazz @trezpazz If u think that USA is the most liberal country in the world, you have to read alot more... whatreallyhappened . com is a starter. If u believe America runs the world, hey, another disappointment for you. Israel runs the world. USA is just a pawn.

[trezpazz]

@porkusmag I never said USA was liberal..far from it....but you may be right about Israel...thats the only thing you have said that I agree with Im pro Israeli...Shalom from Canada

[porkusmag]

@trezpazz And check your spelling -and language. I do not insult you.

Regards from Uruguay.

[megikiss]

love itt :***

[MissHoov]

The U.S. didn't win its war of independence alone... don't forget that France joined in the war against England in 1778. Were it not for the French, Washington would've earned another ass-kicking at Yorktown. Keep in mind that G.W. lost more battles than he won--but we "Vietnam-ed" Britain. The war had dragged on so long that the Brits finally quit. G.W. didn't have to win a lot of battles to win the war.

[TheUtubesuxass]

Rockaires Like I said the US have not won a war on their own since the war of independence, as for your terrible spelling well let's just say it says it all.

You keep thinking of the US as a war machine then let's see how you get on in Afghanistan.

[Stube437]

Go on Roger! Whooo!

[MrCoreyGuitarman]

Who is the guitarist on the right? I don't think roger waters... ;)

[anamgify]

@MrCoreyGuitarman hE´S Andy Fairweather low and on the left Snowy White an Doyle Bramhall II Roger usually play "bajo"

[anamgify]

Wow !!! In our country we call these "... A lot of POLENTA ..." A very strong version !!

[Moes1n]

Just love those laser guided bombs! They're really great for righting wrongs. You hit the target and win the game from bars 3000 miles away. 3000 miles away we play the game with the bravery of being out of range.

This song's for you, oh brave chickenhawk politicians and UAV pilots!

[Grantrus71]

@Moes1n Don't forget, Moes... This song is for Raytheon, Boeing, McDonnell-Douglas, Grumman, Colt, Remington, Beretta, Springfield Arms, etc...the military-industrial-complex!! Without the blood of so many 19 year old Marines and Soldiers none of these riches would be possible. Smile. Shut up. Rent a dvd. :o)

[Sconz32]

Goodam backup are some sexy biatches.

[njolnir]

snowy white has got chops.

[thecyanman]

The song is about politicians not having to worry about getting shot, because the politicians who order the wars don't fight in them. It's not attacking any one particular side.

[ricvonzipper]

How'd she know the her recoil reminds me of sex. She can be my backup anyday. Back it on up, baby.

[Sparky1002]

Yes, the bravery of those who advocate war from the comfort of being out of range!

[pandvale]

Sorry, who is the lead guitarist? Thanks.

[monicauk30]

Snowy White. Former Thin Lizzy. Had smash hit entitled Bird Of Paradise.

[shivaandjaya]

We're huge fans or Roger Wates, Kathie Kissoon, P.P. Arnold and Susannah Melvoin! We get to see this DVD about three times every week!

:)

[xlifeguard]

maybe roger should read a history book...the USA "played the game with the bravery of being out of range" during the second world war and bailed out his home country in that war - a war which would have been lost by England had the U.S. stayed neutral...

[RevSyd]

Don't even worry about it, the song doesn't mean what you seem to think it means.

[xlifeguard]

i could be wrong - but it seems roger's point is that the u.s. fights its wars because it is for the most part out of range of enemy counterfire and has mastered the art of keeping many (not all) of its troops out of range of enemy guns...all valid; advantages that only fools would throw away...but the fact remains that england was bailed out by the fact that the u.s. fought wwII with the "bravery of being out of range"...

[Quoinblock]

I just think that Roger is commenting on the guy in the street, watching the news on television, and because he is British or Amercan or Russian, or Egyption or what ever being brave by saying what should be done to benefit whatever side of the fence he comes down on. it is a general observation, not racist. If you knew anything about Roger Waters you would know that.

[mangahead21]

Ignorance, arrogance and misplaced patriotism. I would like to say you were not a typical specimen, but unfortunately I can't.

[rmurdock2]

Read a history book. The opening shots of the Gulf War (both 1&2) were in the form of a salvo of Cruise missiles, who's crew were literally out of range of enemy response. But- you thinker of deep thoughts, you, Roger is not even criticizing soldiers who have to live out half-assed foreign policy, he is referring to the half-assed policy makers who order the soldiers.

You see, Roger's dad was killed in an ill-conceived plan to hold the under-defended bridgehead at Anzio in WWII. Read a book.

[howie102]

@rmurdock2

[TheUtubesuxass]

@rmurdock2 You need to research more thoroughly The American war of Independence. More Americans fought on the side of the British than the Americans! If it wasn't for the stupidity of Cornwallis and the timely intervention of the French, th isolationist Americans would have lost that one too! Come on Yanks! Read your history! You'll have to do better than this!

A war on your own is hard to find lol.

[rmurdock2]

For the record, WWII vets did not have the luxury of being out of range. History books, and veterans tell us that they were most often the front lines against German and Japanese professional armies. They didn't do too bad for a bunch of kids.

[straightliner2000]

@xlifeguard

You were pretty deaf though. We sounded the bugle in '39 and you heard it in '41 If the Japanese hadn't hit PH you would have left us out to dry.

[rockaires]

@xlifeguard maybe you should read a 20th century history book and realize that the US of A was in every major war and destruction.

Peace.

[TheUtubesuxass]

rockaires maybe you should do your research and find that the good ole U S of A has not won a single war on their own since the yank war of independence, stick that in your pipe ans smoke it :O))

[rockaires]

you may research yourself and realize that the good old u.s. of a. are a war machine since 1916 and paritcipated in the largest war in the xx century and they had the bravery of being out of range: Korea, Vietnam, Panama, Granada, Afghanistan, Irak and so on...

Peace.

[Vladmiracle]

@TheUtubesuxass My god! You should open a history book!

The, "good ole U.S." has won quite a few wars in it's time.

[TheUtubesuxass]

@Vladmiracle what an embarrassing little cunt you are.

reply only when you have learned something.

[Vladmiracle]

@TheUtubesuxass What? Have you not heard of the War of 1812? Spanish American war? Mexican American war? WWI? WWII? Anything?

[TheUtubesuxass]

@Vladmiracle tut tut tut try again you ignorant little cunt

[Vladmiracle]

@TheUtubesuxass My suspicion has been confirmed! You are a little twelve year old dumb ass kid that refuses to admit it when he's wrong.

[TheUtubesuxass]

@Vladmiracle like I said try again you sad fuck.

[Vladmiracle]

@TheUtubesuxass I've been waiting for your response. It certainly gave me a chuckle. I have a serious question, though. Are you mentally retarded?

[TheUtubesuxass]

@Vladmiracle And I await the day you type in an adult and coherent manner, I fear that day will never come, your illiterate text is an embarrassment.

Why not join the army then get a posting to Afghanistan then get killed by a laser guided bomb or a roadside bomb? (rhetorical of course)

and good luck with losing your virginity.

[Vladmiracle]

@TheUtubesuxass Really? Illiterate? Did you get your mommy to come up with that for you? You, my retarded friend, are a hypocrite.

[TheUtubesuxass]

@Vladmiracle Mommy? Jesus this is why the world hates yanks, sad illiterate ignorant cunts.

Now try attending that local slow learning unit from time to time you pathetic little cunt.

[Vladmiracle]

@TheUtubesuxass Wow you're a super cool guy! You're wrong, your a retard, and you have no idea what your talking about. To make up for this you decided to cuss me out several times. If anyone, you're the cunt. And how the hell do you consider me to be illiterate? Until you can grow a pair and admit to your mistake and to being a hypocritical asshole, please just don't respond.

[Vladmiracle]

@Vladmiracle *you're

[TheUtubesuxass]

@Vladmiracle Thanks I am both super & cool,

Now grow up a bit yeah, I mean the more your stubby little fingers type the more of a fool you are making of yourself, just live with the fact you are nothing and will remain nothing until you die in snarling infamy.

[TheUtubesuxass]

@Vladmiracle forgot to mention you are a cunt. :O))

[Vladmiracle]

@TheUtubesuxass You're a douche, and I grow tired of your stupidity.

[TheUtubesuxass]

@Vladmiracle A douche? for god's sake get a grip will you, here are 3 pieces of advice for you and there is no charge,

1. Get a job

2. Lose your virginity

3. Kill yourself

No specific order as long as you carry out the last :O))

happy learning you ineffable dunce.

[Vladmiracle]

@TheUtubesuxass Oh good job on the insults asshole. You really need to take a look at your own list.

[TheUtubesuxass]

@Vladmiracle Cunt

[Vladmiracle]

@TheUtubesuxass Oh wow, I'm scared. Just a heads up to everyone: WATCH OUT, THIS GUY'S A REAL BADASS.

[TheUtubesuxass]

@Vladmiracle how terribly terribly dull........

[TheUtubesuxass]

@Vladmiracle you sad sad little man.......

[Vladmiracle]

@TheUtubesuxass You fucking idiot.

[TheUtubesuxass]

@Vladmiracle wow, your inspired responses lead me to believe you are a retarded cunt, which is what I feared all along, now fuck off to your mobile slow learning unit you sad cunt.

[Vladmiracle]

@TheUtubesuxass THE UNITED STATES HAS WON A HELL OF A LOT OF WARS! YOU'RE FULL OF SHIT YOU GODDAMN RETARD!

[TheUtubesuxass]

@Vladmiracle lol is that really the best you can do?

you are physically loathsome, mentally retarded and genetically unsound.

QED.

[Vladmiracle]

@TheUtubesuxass YOU'RE SO FUCKING STUPID

[Vladmiracle]

@TheUtubesuxass Shut the hell up and face the fact that you're wrong, you fucking hypocritical asshole.

[TheUtubesuxass]

@Vladmiracle the poor grammar and spelling is showing it's ugly head again, you sad sad little insignificant little cunt :O))

ha ha charade you are....

[Vladmiracle]

@TheUtubesuxass My spelling is perfect and there isn't anything wrong with my grammar.

[Vladmiracle]

@TheUtubesuxass Wow you're actually voting your own comments up? That's something that only an asshole like you would do.

[TheUtubesuxass]

@Vladmiracle You sit there in senile dementia grimacing at every reform, your lack of intelligence and intellect is laughable, it's like sparring with a brain dead sex offender.

[Vladmiracle]

@TheUtubesuxass You are the biggest idiot I've ever encountered. You're saying that the U.S. hasn't won a war since it's independence. When I proved you wrong several times, you decided to come up with every insult imaginable to throw at me. You need to shut the fuck up until you're willing to admit that.

[TheUtubesuxass]

@Vladmiracle I am afraid you have proved nothing, the USA have not won a war on their own since the Yank war of so called independence, you have managed to prove your lack of education, I did a little research and came up with the following for you.
