Great Video. Besides the song "Final Cut", this is my favorite on that album. Yes, I realize SOME say it has to do with a nuclear holocaust, but to me, it has to do with looking back and enjoying it, but not dwelling on it, which I seem to do almost always. Thanks for the upload! Awesome job!
@PlanTonto "the sun is in the east even though the day is done, two suns in the sunset, could be the human race is run" The second sun in the sunset is a nuclear explosion, etc
@SnowmanthreeUther Don't harp on it too much. I said to "ME" it was what in meant to me. The good thing about music, you can interpet it to fit what you want to believe. Don't lose sleep over what I said about the song. It's still awesome. But thanks for your comment anyway.
@SnowmanthreeUther TOTALLY no need for an apology. To me, music or a specific song is almost like a pianting, sometimes you can see different things. Thanks, man, you're good people!
Its all actually very simple it's just been perverted and misunderstood for various reason's by the human mind. Just Google 'Truth Contest', think of it as the nature of nature.
@TheInfamust didn't know it .. but kinda felt strong connection .. as water personality is flowing thru both albums .. I thought others thought it's to much of "those" themes so he crack and made his own album xD
@edo8200 wow. you must be like one of the most awful people ever. you should be named "manwhoruinedopportunitytosayanythinguseful" go fuck a blender ya cur
i remember an interview he gave to a radioman in montreal;he was asked what humans could do to help our over exploit earth;he respond:sadly one can only realy help by dying.too many humans for not enough resources.
I think it fits all to well describing the final moments of my best friends life. As the windshield melts, from the fire, and my tears evaporate, leaving only charcoal to defend. Ashes, and diamonds, the diamonds being the shattered glass, sliding towards a big truck, you streatch the frozen moments with your fear. Then its over, Life is done. We will all be there some day, we are all equal, in the end.
@SnowmanthreeUther i accept my previous comment is way too specific, to be honest i'd forgot i'd even commented! i personally always intrpreted this song to reflect humanity and life, but that what music is, isn't it? Agreeably beautiful, yet always open to varied interpretations...
this song says so much and I so appreciate you ( one of the few ) that understand it!
very well done. People take life for grantit and it can end in a matter of moments with a push of an angry button. I wish everyone knew and understood this song. thank you and God Bless!
@attapattapie To say you completely understand the song is childish, you can search for the truth of the song and grow ever closer to the true meaning, but you did not write the song so you can never know the complete meaning behind the song. Also I see it as it actually meaning that 2 suns set. Like Tatooine because of an event predicted by the Mayans, but it's just an opinion. Don't think your better than others because you think you know the meaning of something, In the end we are all same.
@Blades11c The meaning and the story are pretty clear: A man is driving down a road with his family when a nuke is dropped and the feelings and thoughts of anger, disbelief, and sadness as the man watches his family die before he dies as well. As far as backstory for the song, only Waters would know.
@bradco6 To add to my own previous statement: This album came out in 1983 when the U.S. was still in a cold war with the Soviet Union. The threat of a nuclear holocaust was very real at the time. I doubt Waters was thinking about Star War movies or ancient Mayan predictions when he wrote this.
Beautiful countryside film; goes perfect with Floyd's awesome tune.

That Sax in the end, just soaks into your soul and makes a "fearful" video comforting. Sort of like a final acceptance.
