Pink Floyd-Point Me At The Sky (BBC Session)

[jackmorefx]

I am a huge fan of Floyd but I just discovered this song few days ago...it's W O N D E R F U L

[FTW8rld]

unfortunately the music of the future is not like pink floyd imagined it back then...

[falin289]

the face is like the face on mars. they always sing about the universe. the sun the moon and now the face on mars. its like they knew about the world coming to a end. they sing about itall the time

[zeppunde]

love those psychedelic effects ! awesome video

[ternak001]

I like the chorus

[nightmuffin937]

This is Awesome!

[MikeEder]

Funny this and Apples are two of my favorite Pink Floyd songs and they flopped. Great stuff though

[StevenTalks1]

@MikeEder haha I like apples and oranges too!

[YoyoCarlanie]

NGC-2999 (SRD)

[beelzabubba]

"You will have to breathe out so the man next to you can breathe in...."

[drayton38]

i cant belive gilmour is singing this i always thought it was wright

[galaxyuno1]

Wouldn't it be great if the Floyd would either release a new, remastered version

of early singles which includes this or at least tack it onto one of the reissues?

[golf520man]

@galaxyuno1 It is on the Early Singles release and I think attached to the double disc Piper album remasters...

[IllusionaryMind8]

@galaxyuno1 There is a CD called The Early Singles!

[missbeatleforever]

Pink Floyd Points me at the sky everytime I listen to them

[texasmarauder]

I think this is the version I have on "Rhapsody In Pink"

[m06een00]

1968 Floyd with Dave having only joined for a few months, and even then they sound amazing, although Syd's influence is still strong.

[ronan32]

pink floyd have so many different sounds you cant even cateogorize what genre of music they are. its just amazing talent. pink floyd > the beatles

[openskiesmedia]

@PinkFloydGooner Dave sings the verses and chorus, Rog sings the pre-choruses ("dropped into his plastic glider") and coda ("and all I've got to say to you is goodbye!"), and Rick does falsetto backing vox in various places. Rog presumably does backing vox for the chorus too, but it doesn't really sound like him...

[astralhed]

point me at the sky ~

[TheMauvetys]

and let it fly ~

[mymindourdream]

really trippy....even too much...

[MetalheadNatasha]

Holy fuck I have to try and remember to watch this video next time I decide to trip.

[mymindourdream]

your vid fits so well with thissadlu ynderrated P.Floyd masterpiece...***** !!!

[DazedNStoned1970]

CRASH, CRASH, CRASH, CRASH... GOODBYE!!!!.... I lov this, i love Pink Floyd

[lopaje]

it's a very trippy song, sounds like see emily play without syd barrett. i love the psychedelic keyboards!

[lifeson46]

sounds a lot like tangerine dream

[rastabalkanraj]

great song am dancing like crazy :)

[Noodles37UK]

That was bloody incredible. Better than most " session " versions lol!

[anonymous19841]

And if you survive till 2005 

I hope you're exceedingly thin

[patermtube]

Is it a first PF recorded song sung by Gilmour ?

[ancasilviana]

shouldn't be, i'd personally say that's definetely syd's trippy voice

[MortifiedPenguin0319]

@ancasilviana thats roger fool

[marnold6879]

@MortifiedPenguin0319 no that's David singing, and it's the first song that Roger and David wrote together

[SilverDollar79]

world population 1968: 3.556 billion, 2010: 6.891 billion

[MINDCONTROLLEDLOVE]

@SilverDollar79 so they say, but we are dying

[jasoninertia]

one of my favorite pink floyd tunes ever, been a fan since 1979 and only heard this recently on a download of bootlegs, just amazing .

[groovsh8ker]

I surprised they diss this song, their quality control must have been so strict.

[kingsergio128]

the band dident really like the song its condsiderd a floyd embarssment there wasent even a stereo mix thats how much they disliked it they only liked the flip side careful with that axe eugine but the songs really good anyone else agree

[magicalmermaid204729]

in the documentary: pink floyd: which ones pink, they said this song was a notable failure, i disagree strongly :)

[JonicaPrep]

@magicalmermaid204729 A notable failure as a single.......which it was...Dunno why though. Such a great, GREAT tune!!!!!!

[nightmuffin937]

@magicalmermaid204729 How come they didnt put this in Echoes? I really like the rythem from 0:43-0:53 and 3:00-3:10. It sounds waybetter than Sgt Pepper.

[tommytentiming]

@magicalmermaid204729 I think that the actual single was poorly mixed and sounds downright shitty. but is it actually a good song? hell fucking yes

[bzt464]

kinda nice they did survive to two-thousand and five and gave us that last night at Live 8.

[SuperNevile]

@bzt464 Including Syd who died the next year.

[ZeppFloydSabbath]

@bzt464 I kinda thought the 2005 part was about syd. If you look at the whole lyrics, it does seem to be about syd (in my opinion)

[westpalmscott]

Great early floyd song. 1969-73 remains my favorite period

[sisa95ita]

It's true, i'm agree with you... but I also think wish were here, animals and the wall are great albums!

[skovie23232]

@westpalmscott 1965-1982

[kristerkr]

@westpalmscott meddle was one of the best albums, with such ambience

[sydbarrett224]

The best version of this nice pink floyd song.

[cvjucla3]

An excellent version of a very underrated song. 'Point Me at the Sky' is a bitchin' Pink Floyd song, one of my favorites. Very stony vid.

[samussa]

Brillant! It proves that each time they performed a song, they did it in a different way!

[chrismarshall1950]

this is a great song but the line "i'll hope your exceddingly thin" is a weird line

[BeholdAndSee93]

@chrismarshall1950 "for if you are stout, you will have to breathe out, while the people around you BREATHE IN BREATHE IN BREATHE IN!" thats a great line very trippy

[JAYROX1969]

and "Nile Song".

[frusciante319]

@BrokenChair88 haha what video was that original comment on

[fabrega70]

capullo.............

[gunsanddrugs]

jeje!

[DejaVuSu]

Ahhh loved this....

nice share Laura!

[dxakis]

Great song!!Awesome video!!!

[ShowBizComic]

Jimi said it best: "Not necessarily stoned, but...beautiful."

[albytatlock]

Nice one,I like the post Barrett stuff early on
