PINK FLOYD Fat Old Sun

[ThePinkfloyd1969]

@mattaystig i hate you !!!!

[daithisogood]

im here cause i smoked a big spliff

[mattaystig]

I HAVE MET THE LEGEND DAVID GILMOUR!!! WHAT MORE CAN I SAY..............?

[Adennos]

@mattaystig How? Where? and When? +.+

[mattaystig]

@Adennos at zippos circus in my home town of brighton.. 16th august 2008 at 20.16pm..

[Adennos]

@mattaystig I guess I'm a the lucky one because I had the chance to talk to somebody who met David Gilmour. Amazing!

[mattaystig]

@Adennos add me on facebook buddy?? my name is mathew tutt =))))))

[DaveGilmourIsGod]

This is what being in heaven is all about. Thank you Sirio2222.

[Bruchag]

the garden of of hidden aural delights..ah an album to return to..

[gothicgirltzn]

amo immensamente i pink floyd...

[harty1344]

lead is awesome

[Fudgeforum]

Dunno about the Kinks, I can imagine Chris Martin and Coldplay doing this one - not that they're massive favourites of mine.

But King David rules eh !

[TheMikeysteve]

11 people are nocturnal

[bertakralju]

all we need is LOVE and some weed ;) trust me :)

[Nightfly1957]

Wahnsinn !!

[Vmartin70EZ]

every Pink Floyd song is also a "piece" a piece of artistic genius who knows how many artists they have inspired by their melodies

[prezessc91]

all I need now is a summer evening, river and cold beer :)

[shortymcshrimp28]

@MrISatai You mean The Kinks have a Fat Old Sun quality to them? Sounds like Ray Davies would have modelled his writting after it, and David's vocal take must have really inspired him? Sounds more like it to me.

[Extraneus73]

@shortymcshrimp28 No, I think he means what he said... This song resembles many of the Kinks' softer songs, like Lazy Afternoon, and these predate Fat Old Sun by several years. Nothing wrong with Gilmore letting himself be inspired by artist come before, so let's give credit where credit is due, right?

[jcamontflor]

son grandes y geniales sólo a mentes brillantes se les ocurre hacer un punteo como el que tiene esta cancion,que parece que va a seguir cantando cuando la voz de la guitarra sustituye a la voz de david gilmour. joooo alucinante.y en el fondo el rumor de la slide. el bajo y el sonido de la percusión. Bueno señores que quereis que os diga si ya lo sabeis vosotros.

[Spydiggity]

There seems to be an inverse correlation between the number of hits a song has and the quality of the song. For example, Lady Gaga has a video with over 300 million views. pretty sad.

This song reminds me of why Pink Floyd is the greatest band of all time. Even their lesser known works are amazing.

[edslides1]

@Spydiggity

it breaks my heart to know that you are absolutely right.

by the same token, im relieved to also realize that , as usual, its all about money. id hate to think that a 13 year old girls opinion really mattered.

God DOES have a sense of humor.

and i suspect atom heart is in heavy rotation on HIS ipod.

in a true paradise, the radio stations would not be playing lady gaga songs, or justin beiber, or carrie underwood, or 5 finger deathpunch, or ......

ok, ill shut up

[ot42nick]

@Spydiggity

I am glad that the true music treasures are not so exposed and you must find own way.

[fr06floyd]

40 years later... WOW

[ahitler1000]

@fr06floyd , has it been that long , Im still floating at the soft high strains of this magnificent song , thats like shakespear , there is many layers, . . .

[MrDodstink]

This great song/lyrics reminds me golden old times in Tabuba beach with some hot chicks, beers and greatest sound!!

[MrDodstink]

FLOYD´s sound is unique and eternal!

[MrDodstink]

10 yrs ago FLOYD, HOT CHICKS and Atom took me to my planned paradise!!

[avocadopunk]

*Sigh* Ohh the Memories to this song.

[MrDodstink]

9 dislikers of highest quality art!

[MrDodstink]

FLOYD already did the soundtrack to peaceful and not so days and times...

[opethgarzaMD]

and by population that likes rock music in mexico, i'm referring to REALLY listening to rock, not just the popular stuff and mainstream media music

we are few people in mexico, and even in the world, that love rock and willing to do some research and keep learning from music of great minds, and we are spread all over the planet

we should create our own state haha it would be great, fun, peaceful, creative, and with lot of adventure xD

[MrDodstink]

9 faggots and reckless motherfuckers!

[opethgarzaMD]

i'm fan of pink floyd, eventhough i'm young for the era

i've never heard this song before, loved it

[Dutchamps66]

@opethgarzaMD

I was 4 years old when this album came out hehehe so what is young?

Lover Pink floyd especialy roger waters later works

Radio chaos and the pros and cons of hitch hiking

And amused to death .... got it on vinyl to lacquer from original analogue tapes

On sale its over 320 euro :D

[opethgarzaMD]

@Dutchamps66

that's nice dude

i'm 25 right now, and i was born in mexico, so there's not too much population that likes rock music, and my family didn't even know pink floyd

i started to look for their music maybe 4 or 5 years ago, eventhough i'd already heard a few songs

i would like to be raised in an atmosphere proper to learn long time ago about this great band, but at least i'm able now to appreciate their art and i'm glad to live in a world where pink floyd created music for everyone

[edslides1]

how did 5 justin beiber fans get to this vid?

[opethgarzaMD]

@edslides1

cause they are cancer, and that kid is the virus that cause the mutation in the oncogen to develop it

[MrDodstink]

Great music and the atmosphere created and developed into unknown dreams..

[SuperRyanGee]

I want SIRO2222 to know I did acid and listened t your playlist and it was one of the best nights of my life

Good.fuckin.work

[MrDodstink]

In this song David´s voice is superior!

[MrDodstink]

NO WORDS INDEED!

[advantage73]

Excellent...! Thanks for the upload! ;)

[ClassicRockDVD]

Pink Floyd, Live in Oakland 3-disc 2CD/DVD set available at Tommygun Video - link and more details, audio/video clips on our youtube channel

[webmaster8040]

to think there are actuly people who exist that would rater listen to a talentless pop musician like beiber then to pink floyd makes me sick the fact that most young people are like that makes me ashamed beyond belif of my generation where did we go wrong? when did such perfection such amazing music become uncool when did music turn from a buisness based on skill and creativity to a cold horribal place where it dosent matter that you have no tallent aslong as people think your attractive!

[nice1centurion]

wat album?

[alokdgrt]

@nice1centurion atom hearted mother

[peacefuleasy]

I don't know why but I have been listening to this song incessantly for the last few days- classic Floyd only better!!

[thesunshon]

SMILES FROM THESUN!

LOVE LIGHT AND PEACE!

SHONE!

[craigalan100]

I literally feel like Im having a religous experience when Gilmour gos into the solo.

[ZeppelinFloydRoses]

It's amazing how David Gilmour can create a solo with mostly arpeggios and still make it sound awesome.

[Jaukebass]

The sound of time

[pagani43]

I just listened to a 14 minute live version of this with some wicked solos by Rick... awesome!

[tripocrise]

really...no words...

[spayspay]

Beautiful. Thanks. 

[AndyGuitar91]

i love this awesome song.. it's simply undescribable

[shmerilose6p]

אלבום מדהים, הטוב ביותר בכל הזמנים לדעתי. אפשר לשמוע שוב ושוב ועדיין כל צליל נוגע

[sikaseph]

is there any better song than this...?

[6flakes]

@sikaseph I like any color you like, us and them, echoes, pigs, amazing songs.

[pyrrho314]

@6flakes : echoes is teh awesome!

[tramista86]

Roll up a few buds..turn this on with a bottle of beer..and there you are... ultimate freedom! won't ask for anything else...

[anotherconsumer]

I agree... this contains my favorite guitar solo of all time.

[zakrocz]

A classic Floyd tune !!!

[illey16]

i agree with hardrock. this is by far one of their best pieces of work... i love this album!

[Isihuber]

my first record I bought in 1973 - and I never got fed up - and I'll like it ever and ever. At that time I listened to it so often that the record was soon damaged and I had to buy the second atom heart mother, just to be sure that this music wouldn't ever leave me.... I was right!

[cassiopeiaA1]

one of the best songs***** thanks

[poolehart]

My dad used to tease me by singing this song when I became a bit of a porker. The bastard!

I still love the song though.

[6flakes]

I really wish this song was a little longer.

[6flakes]

@6flakes I REEEAALLLY wish this was a liiiil longer..

[tteu123]

@6flakes I wish all pink floyd songs were longer. It's just so magical.

[pyrrho314]

@tteu123 : echoes is just about the right length.

the live versions of interstellar overdrive... also nice and long. Or so I hear, they are hard to find.

[carlotta306]

very great music and video thanks

[415BAY415]

Atom Heart Mother is like the Secret-Weapon of Pink Floyd's massive and diverse catolauge. Its crazy to think how much they changed starting from Piper.

[zacharyfloyd1]

i love the drums in this song

[sraluvssnakes]

the 8 people that don't like this get fucked in the ass regularly

[mariofattore]

grazie per essere esistiti

[Bob131072]

Who are these [...] of 8 people who don't like this song?

This is the one of the best song of the album.

[Sutterjack]

I didn't get into "old" Pink Floyd until Dark Side of the Moon came out---Songs like this are brilliant ---classic---Gilmore's dreamy lyrics are incredible--

[ucsteve]

The slide guitar work on this song is genius. I'll pit this song against the best of the British invasion groups, Pink Floyd is going to last as long as music is heard.

[bullfury19]

NO other BAND like Pink Floyd!!! Thanks Syd, David, and Roger!!!!!

[theilluminator1211]

@bullfury19 And what about Richard (RIP)... Mason... :)

[89Pigsofdarkness]

@bullfury19 And Richard with his unbelievable piano/org etc sounds and nick mason genius drummer. wanted to complete ur sentence cuz even if one of them is missing its not the same:DD

[lulu2026]

amo demais essa musica!

[Stratomen88]

pink floyd are the best of the world

[Polterguist666]

Amazing, yet so simple, song.

[XXxxErMaCxxXX]

Seriously, the 8 bitches that dislike this masterpiece can kill themselves rightfuckin now!

[nokturnal5647]

Definitely the best song from Atom Heart Mother. The underrated Pink Floyd albums are my personal favorite (Atom Heart Mother, More, Meddle, and Obscured By Clouds).

[poiler02]

What would have been with us without David Gilmour? It would be so empty...

[majunior000]

what a fantastic track, one of the best.

[nikken5]

Got me through many a traffic jam..

[thebadger46]

brilliant tune

[bolz3r]

legendary

[floydcake]

why this or this is more than so all of pink floyd is magic as when there s the rain and the sun with pink floyd sound. thank pinkie

[tangerinedreem]

this video is absolutely beautiful!

this is my favorite guitar solo of all time

the way the lyrics fade out and the first note comes in gives me shivers everytime I listen to it!

david gilmour was a GENIOUS!!!!!!

[LaGoonch]

@tangerinedreem

Is. David Gilmour IS a genious.

[seenoevil760]

I love all of these obscure records of the pink floyd. Since the band went through SOOO many changes every album sounds completly different from the other ones, wether its the psychadelic sound of Syds riffs to the sweet slow clean solo's of gilmour, to even the rock opera style of the wall... my point is that you know what your about to listen to when u get a new floyd album and thats what makes the band so unique and awesome!!!

[IsisTiamat]

ATOM HEART MOTHER : up there with the greatest. Rocks my world

[Lechatmimi]

Love. Love. Mais putain, comme j'aime les Pink Floyd. C'est indescriptible. C'est pas vraiment joyeux, pas vraiment triste, juste très poétique.

[OfKilmurray]

i migliori!

[jakeriot69]

great!

[leit420]

ahh the lead guitar at the end.

"words, should have sent a poet"

Peter Griffen entering the twinkie factory

[stilox000]

And the band says they hate this album

ridiculous.

[CTyankee4277]

Agreed. I always loved this track. I never understood why the band ripped on this LP. This and "If" (which I can play on guitar) are like hidden gems that most people don't even know about.

[sonicfanatic4949]

I honestly think they said that kinda stuff for attention, really

[tupacalypse88]

this is bar none the single most beautiful song ive ever heard and ever expect to hear.

[Qamilleinternational]

the delicate sound of thunder is better

[taffy1967]

No it isn't.

[toastedmonkee]

@tupacalypse88

Grantchester Meadows is right up there to.

[MrScorpions4ever]

@tupacalypse88 I think Julia dream is even more beautiful, I love the psychedelic sound so freaking much :D

[tupacalypse88]

@MrScorpions4ever love that song to always makes me think of a medevil landscape castles and all that stuff.

[IsisTiamat]

If you are feeling really down, really awful, listen to this: you will feel immediately better. No meds needed.

[MrJpk77]

@IsisTiamat

I found this song in my teens when i thought i i was a mess. I am now in my 30s screwed through war and women but just sitting back and thinking things arn't all that bad. For some reason this song really does pick you up. cheers

[immmaculada]

@IsisTiamat ... but only after crying about three buckets of tears, the song helps in that no doubt

[SKilletLicker101]

@IsisTiamat Thats true, but drugs just make it that much better

[craze35th]

@IsisTiamat but you still might want to take them enyways.

[edslides]

@IsisTiamat

that is so true

[zeppy215]

@IsisTiamat -Listen to the live version of Fat Old Sun on the the CD," Live @ Royal Albert Hall" The guitar solo goes on & on !! Great stuff!! Seeing Roger Waters tonight in Philly! Nov 11th!! Can't wait!!

[IsisTiamat]

@zeppy215 Thank you my friend. I am thinking of you in Philly tonight experiencing The Wall. For 30 years I thought I would never see it then suddenly I saw it 3 times in 6 weeks. The first time was so overwhelming I hardly absorbed a thing. I am still reeling!! God bless.

[theregoesherschel]

@IsisTiamat I saw the Wall 2 weeks ago in Atlanta. I've been a Floyd fan since high school so I was looking forward to this since it was announced. It exceeded even my wildest expectations. Absolutely incredible. Love live The Floyd!

[IsisTiamat]

@theregoesherschel So happy for you my friend... Beleive me you will stay stoked for weeks! I am still absorbing my "Walls". What a year! Shine on,

[spliff3333]

@theregoesherschel bro if u like pink floyd check out sum roger waters hes from pink floyd chek out towers of faith and leavin beirut i think u will like them

[craigalan100]

@IsisTiamat ....aint that the truth....that guitar solo is so incredible it brings tears to my eyes

[Nightfly1957]

@craigalan100 : Yes, greets from Germany

[calciuzify]

no words guys

[leopoldo727]

uno dei pezzi più belli

[ramroad100]

pf its the best ever solo created i like this solo.....

[arddalan]

@ramroad100 i agree , something about it that I cant stop listening to it.

[edslides]

and by the way, if you really wannsta appreciate this song, listen to it on only left channel. then only the right.

[arddalan]

@edslides and don't forget to close your eyes as you listen to it, just a whole different experiment

[edslides]

@arddalan

same thing bro. (forgot to add that one)

kinda goes without sayin!!!!!

headphones, 8 track, and your folks are pissed at ya for some reason

kinda gets ya thru, huh.

im 48 years old, and this one still gets me thru.

uriah heep stuff worked the same way.

[IsisTiamat]

@edslides

what a great tip! thx

[tskin123]

This guitar solo is my favorite of all time.

[WHBard]

This song and Summer of 68 are... unbelievably good.

[baseballfuries08]

I wouldn't change a

"Sing to me... sing to me"

and a

"How do you feel? How do you feel?"

For NOTHING!

[criminalminded7]

in 5 min high school just flashed by

[arddalan]

@criminalminded7 YES , PINK FLOYD SONGS TAKE YOU TO PLACES.

[Froese54]

this song just makes you wanna light up a big fatty

[edslides]

@Froese54

ok. i think i will. thanks, Froese!

but we called em dizbusters back in the 70s.

(thanks b.o.c.)

[slave22575]

Una delle più belle canzoni dei Pink Floyd.

Semplicemente un capolavoro...

[Bussemand2]

I have all their albums and yesterday was the first time i heard this song! WhAT HAVE I MISSED!

[StonedPro]

@Bussemand2

hahaha that happens, isnt it awesome??

[brunstar81]

It took me a while to really 'find' this song, one of my all time favorites now.

[troyzuse]

This and meddle are probably my favourites :) <3

[TheInquisitiveDream]

meddle is an amazing album : )

[tomwodi2]

and good work with the video, SIRIO2222.

[tomwodi2]

i prefer The final Cut, but all of Floyd is simple perfect.

[Brrrrr43]

When I listen to this song and Childhood's End, I think that David G should have had more confidence in his lyric writing. They are really pretty good.

[FUME77]

I think Atom Heart Mother is their best album together with Dark Side and Wish You Were Here....

[NarLiv]

@FUME77 I agree!

[zeppy215]

i think i'd have to agree!! Animals is also a great album!! Echoes from, Meddle is so dame good as well!! Wish You were Here was their best & tied with Darkside & Atom heart Mother! Whatever Floyd CD i'm listening to is the best i guess! Love all of their albums to be honest! Even Division Bell is worthy enough to compare to the ones i've already mentioned!!

[michele4710]

@FUME77 Ciao Fume77 sono d'accordo con te!!!

[pyrrho314]

@FUME77 moves me to tears, also induces flashbacks....

[craigalan100]

@pyrrho314 ....hey dude....exactly...I cant explain it..but the tears part is right on....now if I could just get it to induce flashbacks...!!!

[bluecity75]

God exists

[RockForSoul]

so relaxing

[residualbill]

This song deserves to stand among those that are considered their best, such as Comfortably Numb, Mother, Time and Money. This is just such a great song.

Also, this is a really great video. Thank you so much.

[pyrrho314]

@residualbill : also julia dream

[Grave187RIP13]

This bass line is so rad!

[a1b2c3z44]

AtomHeart Mother is the most inderrated album of Pink floyd. but it's just as good as all songs by Pink floyd.

when i discoverd Pink floyd, i totaly started to thnik difrent, i made a revolucion in my life. Pink floyd is a legend, that will live on in mi mind.

[kraberella]

@a1b2c3z44 - I agree, Pink Floyd made me look at things from different points of view (and I don't just mean the times when I was high on something...I don't do drugs anymore). They have such a rich and deep catalogue of work that is truly unique. Atom Heart Mother is definitely underappreciated and along with Animals and Meddle are my favorite PF albums.

[StonedPro]

@a1b2c3z44

its true dude, even roger waters thinks its garbage. but i absolutely love it! :D

[MarcBeckK]

@StonedPro Gilmour thinks very highly of this piece though, and the appreciation of this song is also well placed in my opinion.

[forestpolch5442]

so relaxing after a long day

[MrJackyWoo]

Atom Heart Mother is a hidden gem of an album,equal to anything else put out by The Floyd. Thanks for posting.

[antonipeterleitoni]

I think Atom Heart Mother (song) is a masterpiece! I believe no other musical group would have the courage to do the same they did...

[LaGoonch]

Never heard this song before, but its definitely among their best... Gilmour should have written more songs!

[GregoryJecht]

What a fucking nice solo!!!

Great!!

[ILLKRILLKILLER]

WHich of Pink Floyd's albums are the hardest to find on cd? i'd like to collect all of there studio albums, an i'd rather not go online to do so.

I'm a collector an i like to get things myself, strange i know, but Floyd is the first band that i've ever wanted the entire discography of. there music is phenomenal in a word, if surrealistic art could make audible frequenct it would sound like Pink Floyd.

[0hardrock0]

Atom Heart Mother is probably the most underrated album by Pink Floyd. In my opinion, Fat Old Sun's solo is just as good as Comfortably Numb's solo.

Pink Floyd is great.

[tjcool25]

@0hardrock0 agreed

[edslides]

@0hardrock0

doesnt anybody think the "mother" solo was more heartfelt?

[Ritchie1504]

classic pink floyd.best song from atom heart mother

[sturmtigerDMW]

how about atom heart mother suite?

[sandro28grizz]

Used to love getting stoned to this album in my teen years.
