This song breaks my heart.... </3 But I enjoy the beautiful lyrics that Syd Barrett wrote... because he /Roger Waters/ and David Gilmour really put emotion into everything they did...
PINK FLOYD is and will ALWAYS be my ABSOLUTE favorite band... EVER.
pink floyd is better than sex. literally. if i had to choose between a life of celibacy or a life without pink floyd i'd choose abstinance without hesitation. agree?
I just heard/saw this for the first time in many years. I was not prepared for the wave of emotions that struck. Wow! This is the work of a genius in his prime. Seriously, a contemporary Bach; but instead of fugue, the poignant lyric was the implement of his genius.
This is definitely one of my favorite moments in the film itself. After seeing this and hearing about how closely it ties in with Waters' own childhood it made me realize just what a great artist Pink Floyd was, if only just for the deep personal connection with their material. Makes me close to tears every time. Especially on the album version of this "song"/interlude you can just hear the sadness and desperation in his voice.
As you age your taste matures. I hate to admit this but...when I was a young teen I liked Donny Osmond, as I grew older my tastes widened,deepened. I listened to meatier music. Same with my sons, they listned to Steps and S Club 7 when they were young. Now my eldest listenes to all sorts including rock and metal, my youngest also listens to a range of music and plays bass in a rock band. You can't tell them what to listen to, they have to find it for themselves. Just make it available. : )
@LoriCiani well everyone likes pop music when there young because its happy but luckaly some grow up to see the real world and realise there is more talent and emoton in rock. unfortunatly some kids now never grow up and still listen to happy pop. but as long as there are people like your son and me and my friends there will still be a range of rock still to listen to you
@GodfatherAl102892 i have an eight yr old vera...when she was born, the doctor asked her name..we told him, and he said...aaah, truth :) hope you're girl is a sweet V too. :)
@mamajud lol thanks, yeah my friend who is another Floyd fan just got home from Iraq. I told him the news about the baby and her name and he said, " What has become of youuu." Great guy
Well England won the war...their reward has been to invite millions of Africans to England..on a small island that cant feed itself..Now we have flash riots, and most cities violent..Thanks Churchill piece of shit!
Went to war to fight the nazis to not invade England..yet 60 years latter they let MILLIONS of violent Africans invade freely..SICK! Hope the island sinks into the ocean!
Just watched "The Wall" commentary track and Roger Waters said that he gets emotional watching this part too... Not a big surprise in that it's autobiographical in that his dad was killed in WW II.
Being a former military member, this song brings me to tears...mostly because I know it's the right thing for my country to pull out of all other countries. The US has gone over its limit as a global bully.
How people can not see there must be the God Creator as He's given to some of us such incredible talents. It's hard to believe that such genius as PF can be the product of random, mindless evolution! Melody, Harmony, Scales, Rhythm, Pulse... Their music is not only from this world, it's also an echo of the other world(s)... to me PF sound like someone who is conscious of the paradise lost. The Music is the spiritual phenomena, it's supernatural.. Most stuff on today's radio is not The Music.
I'm a classical musician, and I love The Wall. I jam with my guitar buddy. This song conveys such a feeling of loss and aloneness. It makes me cry too. Long live Pink Floyd.
i cried when i heard this song live in athens......how can anybody click the dislike button...??? why there is a dislike button on such an epic song...???
1980 and it applies now more than ever before. Bring them home..bring them home bring them home Mr. President. Bring them home. BRING THEM HOME BRING THEM HOME BRING THEM HOME. We elected you to do this. Be the man. Bring them home.
This song is pretty overlooked, this probably involved some of the most emotional sounding singing out of any song Pink Floyd has done. Then again, Pink Floyd have too many good songs, we can't tell which to pay attention except for the obvious ones.
@TheSmokey815 Vera Lynn is the singer of the song: "We'll meet again" in the 1940's... (which is also featured in Stanley Kubrick's "Dr. Strangelove" ending)
@TheSmokey815 thats so incorrect Vera Lynn was a singer during ww2 and was famous for singing a song called "we'll meet again, some sunny day". She is alive and well.
@TheSmokey815 Thats quite wrong. The Vera Lynn of this song was Vera Margaret Welch on 20 March 1917, and is best know for her 1942 recording of the popular song "We'll Meet Again"....

I feel like the lyrics in Vera, "Does anyone else in here feel the way I do," is almost like Pink, or Waters, saying to Vera Lynn the optimism was empty. Our loved ones died.
Going into Bring the Boys Back Home. Pink, and Waters, is saying don't let other children of soldiers experience what he experienced of being on left on his own. Experience what happens if we never meet again.
Considering the circumstances surrounding Roger Waters' life and Pink's life in The Wall, I feel Waters' actually critical of Vera Lynn in the song Vera.
In Vera Lynn's song, We'll Meet Again, the lyrics say, "We'll meet again some sunny day." Waters' and Pink's father die in WWII. They never met again.
Vera Lynn's song was used as a morale boaster for the soldiers. Giving them optimism of getting through the war and seeing their loved ones again.
Chills. My dad made sure that I knew about Floyd and I guarantee that my children will too. Its a shame that todays youth would rather listen to Lady Gaga or Lil Wayne or some shit. Does anybody else, feeeeel the way I do?
@BassPlayer9651 Very nice taste in music I'm 22 BTW. Some stuff is just to good to die. In 20 years, who is going to remember what shoulder lean means haha
@highchief42 not if we don't allow it to ;) My mother used to put this album entirely when she was pregnant, and until now i believe that pink floyd is the most complete, fantastic, marvelous band on earth. It has everything for an extended wide of tastes and it pushes forward to overcome feelings into a better state and well being. For sure if i get to have a son i will too do my work and transmit pink floyd notes into his life and for the good sake of future music generations
@hksp1 One of the best gifts my dad ever gave me was his old DSOTM cassette. I had heard the same few songs on the radio and not much else. I was amazed at how the music flowed together and the deep meaning in the lyrics. It was music with actual effort put into it. I would smoke out the old jalopy and you could bet that tape would be playing. Then I expanded to The Wall, Animals, Wish You Were Here, Meddle, etc. and I have yet to be disappointed by a Floyd album.
@highchief42 My dad lived this era and was just as scarred by the same schools that Waters was. He passed the same distance and numbness, albeit unwittingly, down to us.
@highchief42 My dad was exactly the same mate, I'm 16 at the moment and me and my dad managed to go see Roger Waters' The Wall tour in Manchester a few months ago. It's was fucking amazing! Such a shame that the majority nowadays will grow up without having great musicians such as Pink Floyd etc. having any sort of influence on their lives, they'll be completely non-existent to them.
@highchief42 I think it isnt in our place to be the grumpy old adult telling our children that their music sucks and that ours is better people should be free to like what they like. At one time people thought Pink Floyd sucked and why do our children listen to this stuff nowadays.
@BillyT4evr Haha I'm not saying we should outlaw other music, I am just expressing my opinion. If I think something sucks, thats how it is. God forbid artists actually put effort into their music...
@highchief42 Who says modern musicians dont put effort into their music granted techno is incredibly simple to make and I could make 100 songs in the next 5 minutes however a lot of artisits pour their heart and soul out into their music. I personally am a headbanger who also listens to classical, Beethoven and such, and I believe that you cant just say that all of todays generations music sucks even some rappers put a lot of effort into their music.

@highchief42 i agree, my two daughters are away from me, and when i saw the music preferences in facebook i feel ashame, they like justin bieber and shit like that, some day i hope to have back with me and show them about the best music.
@highchief42 i think everyone feels tha same way. nowadays these "artists" have no talent. the closest thing you can get to seeing real talent is watching real musicians play on youtube or listen the old classic music.
@highchief42 dont wory the people at my highschool are compleat outcasts if they listen to any shit like that. ill make shure it stays like that. im a regular dictating pink ;)
@AlpineBates I am not stopping anyone from listening to anything. I am giving an O P I N I O N. Do you know what that is? OPINION is the word of the day. Go pound your chest at someone else dumbfuck.
@highchief42 Why are you comparing Pink to Lady Gaga? As if to assume back in the 70's everone listend to Pink Floyd and crappy pop music didn't exist... Funnily enough, if you had actualy looked into it, Lady Gaga can actually play the piano well and she writes her on songs.
@highchief42 I do not think it's a shame that youth would rather listen to what ever I do not consider music, as long as they don't make others listen to it. It is rather sad since music is not as deep and meaningful as it used to be and that listening to it, people would less likely form bands similar to Pink Floyd (and many other bands), but in my OPINION people should listen to what they enjoy listening to.
@highchief42 I do. My father and I (both huge Floyd fans) had a talk about this today. Its sad. 30 years after Pink Floyd, and they are still widely recognized. 30 years from now however, nobody will remember Lady Gaga or Lil Wayne. We have absolutely nothing to define our generation by. I will however, make sure to pass down my superior knowledge of amazing music to my children. :3
Saw this live yesterday night sang from mister Waters and I still have got shivers, and still wondering how can anyone dislike this... "Every gun that is made, every warship launched, every rocket fired signifies, in the final sense, a theft from those who hunger and are not fed, those who are cold and not clothed." Dwight D. Eisenhower
The section of Bring the Boys Back Home almost brings me to tears and I'm not sure why. Maybe the awesomeness of the scene does it, and it always sends shivers up my back.
The 4 people who disliked this should be banned from Youtube. You guys don't like this music, then go listen 2 ur shitty lady gaga bullshit. Pink Floyd were the most inspiring bands on the planet, and they still are today. Long Live Pink Floyd!!
this section is a fantastic set but 'Bring the Boys...' sounds alot better when you have Waters doing the vocals not the big backing choir. its a bit more personal for lack of a better description. and it dont matter if your stoned or not, its still mind blowing with or without, you just gotta make the choice
i first heard Pink Floyd when i was 16,just listening but when i'm getting older i fully understand the real message of the songs,the agony,suffering,destruction and the most hard part of life the DEATH of your loveones,i can't imagine why some individual can brainwash lots of people to do bad things,remember what sir john said, LOVE and PEACE!!!!!
I was raised on this and great music like it. I'm in my 30s now. As far back as I can remember Vera and Bring the Boys Back Home have always made me feel the emotion of music. After listening to this the same emotions came back up. There is nothing better than great music!
I have seen roger waters in chicago for the dark side and this year in st. louis for the wall (way better). its just better than any other concert, because you are enveloped into this story that the band is telling you. And you can see it all on the wall.
Alan Parker was (and still is) such a master director, for musical films. Here he managed to capture the Pink Floyd themes of the album and it's magnificent. There's not a single flaw.
vera lynn was a singer back in world war I (or perhaps II - can't remember) era that mostly sang patriotic-ish songs about patriotism, war, and all that.
"remember how she said that we would meet again, 'some sunny day'"
that last bit is actually a reference to one of her songs.
@waterbagel she was a singer during the second world war, and, in 2009, her Greatest Hits albums reached number 1 in the charts making her the oldest artist to get at the number one spot (she was 92 at the time)!
@waterbagel she was a singer during the second world war, and, in 2009, her Greatest Hits albums reached number 1 in the charts making her the oldest living artist to get at the number one spot (she was 92 at the time)!
@nuclearjanitors people like you are why i wasn't able to get into this band for a long time. "an observer rather than an ant"? who the fuck do you think you are? wake up you are on youtube.com you are not some great rogue standing alone in the world dumbfounded by your own originality, impervious to society. wake up bro, you're just a douche bag.
i'm a widow of a Vietnam vet...this song touches me deeply. at least we got to go together to see them play Hollywood Bowl in the early years. Love all Pink Floyd songs

@highchief42 Who says modern musicians dont put effort into their music granted techno is incredibly simple to make and I could make 100 songs in the next 5 minutes however a lot of artisits pour their heart and soul out into their music. I personally am a headbanger who also listens to classical, Beethoven and such, and I believe that you cant just say that all of todays generations music sucks even some rappers put a lot of effort into their music.

@highchief42 i think everyone feels tha same way. nowadays these "artists" have no talent. the closest thing you can get to seeing real talent is watching real musicians play on youtube or listen the old classic music.

@highchief42 Why are you comparing Pink to Lady Gaga? As if to assume back in the 70's everone listend to Pink Floyd and crappy pop music didn't exist... Funnily enough, if you had actualy looked into it, Lady Gaga can actually play the piano well and she writes her on songs.

@highchief42 I do not think it's a shame that youth would rather listen to what ever I do not consider music, as long as they don't make others listen to it. It is rather sad since music is not as deep and meaningful as it used to be and that listening to it, people would less likely form bands similar to Pink Floyd (and many other bands), but in my OPINION people should listen to what they enjoy listening to.

@highchief42 I do. My father and I (both huge Floyd fans) had a talk about this today. Its sad. 30 years after Pink Floyd, and they are still widely recognized. 30 years from now however, nobody will remember Lady Gaga or Lil Wayne. We have absolutely nothing to define our generation by. I will however, make sure to pass down my superior knowledge of amazing music to my children. :3

The section of Bring the Boys Back Home almost brings me to tears and I'm not sure why. Maybe the awesomeness of the scene does it, and it always sends shivers up my back.

this section is a fantastic set but 'Bring the Boys...' sounds alot better when you have Waters doing the vocals not the big backing choir. its a bit more personal for lack of a better description. and it dont matter if your stoned or not, its still mind blowing with or without, you just gotta make the choice

i first heard Pink Floyd when i was 16,just listening but when i'm getting older i fully understand the real message of the songs,the agony,suffering,destruction and the most hard part of life the DEATH of your loveones,i can't imagine why some individual can brainwash lots of people to do bad things,remember what sir john said, LOVE and PEACE!!!!!

The song is about how we shouldn't let things seperate us with the things that truly matter; friends and family.

I was raised on this and great music like it. I'm in my 30s now. As far back as I can remember Vera and Bring the Boys Back Home have always made me feel the emotion of music. After listening to this the same emotions came back up. There is nothing better than great music!

Alan Parker was (and still is) such a master director, for musical films. Here he managed to capture the Pink Floyd themes of the album and it's magnificent. There's not a single flaw.

@MultiFalsename it's "does anybody here remember vera lynn"
vera lynn was a singer back in world war I (or perhaps II - can't remember) era that mostly sang patriotic-ish songs about patriotism, war, and all that.
"remember how she said that we would meet again, 'some sunny day'"
that last bit is actually a reference to one of her songs.
