[WolvesPatriot]

Great tune, but his Step son is a W*nker.

[WolvesPatriot]

Great tune, but his Step son is a W*nker.

[caxtonman]

A crackling open fire, a warm brandy and a splif! Close your eyes and drift into this song.....

[gramoukdoom]

GOD

[dizzzzzie]

I have been to "said" island.....and it's just like this song.....laid back and beautiful! Maybe I'll get to go again sometime soon!

[BitsBobsThisAndThat]

Beautiful 5***** :)

[francescochimienti]

*-*

[AureusVenerabilis]

Remeber that night, white steps in the moonlight...

Long live David Gilmour :-)

[F3nrir1992x]

this song is something... I got no words to describe it... fantastic

I think Gilmour is the best guitar-player ever...

[mboboo]

I subscribe .

[Gawroon7]

Me too.

[Gawroon7]

This song is over everything....

[fr06floyd]

Yes, the best.

[starstrap]

@F3nrir1992x try to listen to this song while lying on the beach in the night. it makes you feel in heaven. i've tried it many times! always amazing

[Valerio2381]

@F3nrir1992x the best guitar player ever no, but one of the best yes.

Remeber, say the best guitar player ever is IMPOSSIBLE ! ! !

There's no the best guitar player ever, because everyone is good to do something.

About a guitar player you can only say how is his guitar techinic, but nothing else ! ! !

[F3nrir1992x]

@Valerio2381 you're right, man. there are many guitar players and if one is better in something another one is better in something else... but Gilmour is the one who makes me feel better, no way.

[redwhitch17]

Beautiful........phew...

[dizzzzzie]

I have been to the island in question.....and it is as much the music as the music is the island!

[karmineka]

The most haunting guitar solos ever...

[FF7Bahamut]

Muy linda la cansion, muy relajante

[waylo4526]

so relaxing and also would be a cool make out song on the beach at sunset

[nigee008]

Beautiful music.

[sergetadomingues]

it's seem Pink Floyd

[reverendflash]

The reason this track sounds so 'Floydian' is because it's got half of the classic lineup (Gilmour and Wright), along with Rado 'Bob' Klose, who was a VERY early member of Pink Floyd from back in the mid 60s, and also Guy Pratt, who has played on Floyd tours and Gilmour albums off and on for two decades now. Throw in David and Graham, and you've got 'Crosby, Floyd, and Nash' - a Pink Floyd for the current decade.

[sergetadomingues]

thank you very much, for information.

[assWompingMadNess]

funny how the pink floyd sound and feel still lingers on in gilmour and water's solo albums...

[nomercyambulance]

Simply amazing. I heard about "On an Island" and this was the first chance I had to hear it. The legendary voices of Crosby and Nash really helped to set this one off.

MORE PLEASE!

[PoposNewGuitarChan]

I love his subtlety with the tremolo arm.

[RaffaJay]

How sweet that is to have graham nash and david crosby as your backup vocals..Their vocals are awesome with Dave's ..would love to see that album of songs together

[xXxGODSMACKxXx]

hes defanately one of the best if not the best guitarist/musician of all time. pure genious.

[Duomaxwell69]

God Bless U David Gilmour

[Falcon191172]

My Hero . . .

[the6man7]

This song just takes you to another place, a calm and relaxed harmony, nothing a nice toke couldnt help out as well.

[hillbillygenius72]

the oddest thing is, I'm a metalhead, but David Gilmour is my favorite musician, I couldn't picture pink floyd without either him or Syd.

[Katamapatcha]

yes hillbillygenius72. him and Syd are fucking artists/

[khashayal2opeth]

i`m like u

we are the same

[davidtheguitarman]

gilmour is the pink floyd the sequel

[wheelchairRetard]

This was what made Pink Floyd so great. Gilmour has an unimaginable ability at harmonizing melodies and writing great songs.

[timoramdam]

oh dady dave... you send me on the stars in a great sky without problem. I love evrything in this artist...

[Sitopia]

I prefer the Live in Gdansk version to the studio. This is still pretty awesome though.

[pabloalvarado]

yeah man, that version have a unique magic, something I can't put on words, just fell the guitar on you soul, men, I love David Gilmour!

[nainayuso]

no,without richard its over,but this song make me feel in a dream,amazing

[eddgiles]

oh man i hope david gilmour say yes to a pink floyd reunion it would be awesome i'll sell my freakin' house if necessary to see the floyd

[electronicmilkman]

after wright died there is no chance for one anyway

[thedarknightley]

the sound of the guitar is just awesome

[orenben1]

its songs like these which show people how much gilmour contributed to the floyd. i mean waters was a lyrical genious, but musically noone beats gilmour

[JHerdman1]

tbh, i love gilmours playing, but a lot of floyd's musicallity actually comes from wright (RIP).

[EpicViking]

I love Gilmour's music. I love how you can feel the song. :]

[SHARKTREATMENT]

Hey , DG is playing a Gibson for a clip in there !

Looks Like a Les Paul Custom ......

well, it is if DG is playing it !

nice album David

[EdBraski0977]

yeah it looks like a les paul doesnt it. Notice the fender headstock though

[orenben1]

hey man, DG plays les pauls alot, i think he used it a whole lot on wish you were here

[hillbillygenius72]

his main guitar is the strat though, but you are right, he also used it for Another Brick In The Wal.

[Sitopia]

Great song, love it!

[todd5854]

This song (and entire album, really) has something special about it. I only heard it a few times, and I had to have it. For any of you that actually bought the CD, the CD photography is beautiful too, in the booklet.

[bootoc]

Good song ! I bought the "David Gilmour : Remember That Night" DVD and it has become my favourite DVD (with PULSE) :-)

[jaguarxk100r]

great song the solo from 5:07 seems such a lonley solo but very well done

[JiggidyNDG]

I love David Gilmour's singing and guitar. My (ex)girl loved it, and I thought it was awesome she knew something other than just Pink Floyd. Killa Katie, I love you.

[gilisfloyd]

thats funny, gilmour puts my girlfriend to sleep....

[JiggidyNDG]

Hopefully in a good way!

[imagine9384]

I keep getting drawn back to this video. It calls me subconsciously; and I am captivated each time.

[134being]

35p6khop356kh5poh,op5,ho Mr David Gilmour is an Enlightened Being ,he lives in the present Now eternity,he is a very aware person ,he is learning to fly beyond time into reality itself,heaven the here and now,most of you won't have a clue what I'm on about....

[666W00D00666]

that is total art.. she is a legend and never die ! and song is in heaven !

[Czeppelin]

ehhh:D "he"

[Fl0yd91]

One man, one black guitar, two hands... one legend... Mr. David Gilmour.

[thesunreport]

@Fl0yd91 .....that's what is written on his business card... xD

[sgfreakrokks]

i wonder how many guitars he has had lol

[GMLBand]

Strepitosa!

[DariusMidnite]

Hamonic and peaceful. Soothing really.

[Dieg0117]

David es mi inspiracion ... por el toco la guitarra gracias por todo ...

[quesapa]

Buen ejemplo tomaste, Diego :)

[radiohm3]

La neta yo tambien toco guitarra por el, digo estoy comenzando pero ya por lo menos saco la parte acustica de esta cancion

[sigloz]

please David......dont die

[Jagethemage]

its kind of sad really, to watch the footage of gilmour back in the early 70s (live at pompeii) and see him rocking out at his peak, then watch this later stuff. same godlike mind but whithered by time =(

[darkmachete]

I totally agree with you on that one.

[46stephen74]

He still got it though really he's just less experimental!! sort of living off his past songs!! but he still better than any other guitarist from this new generation!

[radiohm3]

Agree on the better that other guitarists but I dont think that he is living off his past songs, he is always looking for something new to work on, I just hope that I live enough to see him playing live

[chrismeara]

great song off a great album

[prideolondon]

Please Mr Gilmour...this tour was amazing.....im just so pissed i missed it.

Please please please come back !!

[comfortablynumb995]

Just one more album and one more tour come to the midwest. My life will be complete Gilmour if you can just play one more gig in Kansas city....

[ScottGoldbergFilms]

I wish Gilmour would do another CD and tour. That would be fantastic. Never saw him or Floyd live. Would love to. The music is amazing.

[beau5757]

this is called making the guitar sing for you

[4min2savetheworld]

He gives that guitar a soul....

damn

[KENNETHCONNEL]

HE GIVES IT A LIFE!

[maddrummer4201972]

sorry for that post david is good floyd has always made me melt

[maddrummer4201972]

i can see doin some paper on my 21 footer and floatin for a while and know where the island is just need the lady..................lol

[134being]

Remember that night Now night Life night beautiful sights senses coming alive awakening together oh yes indeed.

[pezcore66]

love the guitar work in this song... he really knows how to make it sing... this song really is a throwback and tru to his style of writing

[elguasonbizarro]

clapton , knoplerr, and david are the best guitarrist of rock

[iamcraiger]

Nick is a great "musical" drummer, and as much a part of the Pink Floyd sound as any other member.

[unmensunshne]

i love floyds stuff from piper to division bell but davids solo work just touches my soul big time..i wonder if floyd would have been so sucsessful if david didnt join in 1968,i think he is a genius that brought out the best in all of them.sorry if it seems disrespectful

[thefragilesands]

mason isn't the best drummer, and wright was self-taught on keys, so I wouldn't consider that very disrespectful considering that David composed the music mostly by himself while Roger Waters pretty-much just wrote lyrics (which is why he considered himself the leader oddly enough). David was the most professional and musically talented in that group no question

[unmensunshne]

is true.i think only nick had professional training..they were arcitecture students and syd studied art. The nickname 'gods guitarist' is very aplicable to David

[gilisfloyd]

i will agree with you whole heartedly, floyd wouldn't have been floyd without david.....and although i like post waters floyd better than pre waters, i might not like any of it without david......he brings feeling to everything, and thats what always has grabbed me....his style is unmatched....

[unmensunshne]

yeah good comment..when i watch roger singing at the berlin concert i bet any money he wishes he had david playing along-side him..snowy white was great but roger needed 2 guitarists to get comfortably numb to davids standard..& they did a brilliant job also.great music is timless

[marcojuve86]

semplicemente immensi.... grande gilmoure.......

[ilphantasmo]

Uno de los mejores guitarristas del mundo!!!

[ZowieFillups]

R.I.P. Rick Wright and Syd Barrett.

We will never forget you and what you brought to one of the greatest bands that will ever be.

[Turnfather]

An RE-UNION WILL NEVER BE...

Rick is gone....

[mkozaq1980]

i can see that pink floyd lives on in david, i really hope they do a reunion tour.

[crk1121]

Sadly since the passing of Richard Wright this probably won't happen.. :-/

[lucpv]

muito bom...

[basilbrushbaby]

gilmours style so unique and unmistakable full of emotion it takes you on a journey on some far away land

and takes your cares away that is what real music is all about.  GREATEST GUITARIST OF ALL-TIME

[Toamata77]

You hit the nail right on the head.......I couldn't have said it better myself !!!!!!!!

[fukoxD]

the song is in a 3 / 4

[IamProximusArdet]

Ewo , kiedyś i my będziemy mieli swoją wyspę ...i siebie ...

[Marina8o]

Kocham Cię Aniele:*

Dziękuję,że JESTEŚ...

[gilisfloyd]

[xpansion2012]

[tobymanero2]

[basilbrushbaby]

[JulianH21]

"Best" is soo subjective... but he is one of the greatest guitarists :)

[jebusthelittlepixxie]

Great album! Great musician! Really inspiring! Thanks David!

[JulianH21]

+1 on that! You're absolutely right! :)

[labrador004]

Sonic alchemy! It's like listening to something can get you high...

[Vieirrra]

BEAUTIFULL!

THIS MEN IS MY GUITAR IDOL AND I PLAY GUITAR FOR 6 YEARS! David Gilmour knows what he does, meaning the guitar

[sineric18]

Reminds me of something between the Division Bell and Obscured by clouds... Brilliant.

[jovannilucsi]

YES,YES,YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[vikingoat]

[jalacy93]

[redwhitch17]

such a beauifull song...love it ..

[sososo2000]

New solo (Third) album of David Gilmour, released in 6th March 2006, called "On An Island"

-------

[doctorsound16]

Gilmour always plays the right note at the right moment, with the right feeling, with the right tone. His singing and playing get you inside the song, as if you were living it while you listen to it... truly amazing.

[1337juancho1337]

i cannot agree with you more. i so know what you mean.

[darthfrodo915]

Hey can someone please tell me if this is a new album, if so what is it called. Please share the information. Thankx!

[plutonia00]

Hey this is 2year old album called "On an Island"

I noticed your from the US so you can get it for as little as $6.00 on amazon . com :D

[rd40082]

Mr. Gilmour great musician and a great soul as it can be inferred from his social work trough his foundation. And this music is only one example of his interesting personality

[danyl123]

stunning!

[jvandle]

By the way, the Pete Cornish G-2 sounds absolutely incredible on this track. When it's combined with the Tube Driver in the second solo it's even more amazing. With rich delay from a Pete Cornish Tape Echo Simulator, studio mastering, and the fingers of David Gilmour, the guitar solos in this tune are sublime. It's nice to see David on a Les Paul as well. P90 pickups anyone? The Black Strat shines on all its glory here. I particularly like the part between 2:56 - 3:06. Great stuff.

[jvandle]

Can someone explain this to me: Why does this video only have 25 comments (including mine) and 27,522 views? This is by far one of the best songs to come out in a very long time. Shows how the music industry has changed. This kind of music isn't the best selling anymore like rap and pop music but it has a timeless quality and wide audience. This will be remembered while the people doing it just for the money and fame will be lost to time.

[winnerandloser]

absolutelly agree and have nothing more to say. Maybe just that most people are stupid and that most of the music today has no beauty in it, except few examples, like this one.

[vriverad]

maybe because the lyric is not about to kill someone, or David doesn't look like a guy a in a jail, or he is not talking/looking like a maniac that wants to fuck a hot dancing girl in the video...

[rocky18671991]

absoluetly. i agree with winnerandloser and jvandle. I don't understand how anyone could even listen to any rap/hip hop shit when even better music is available. Cheers to David Gilmour for not selling out.

[yateke]

es el mejor guitarrista asi de simple un gran cantante su musica es de lo mejor

[esserelibera]

totalmente de acuerdo...no necesitamos demostrar que sabemos música para apreciarla y sentirno extasiados con ella...

[ladywolf4285]

Love how David Gilmour makes his guitar cry..He's unbelievable..

[clinta7]

The only artist who allowed me to see, feel, and hear music. Gilmour rules!

[MightyMonaco]

Full-on, 100% legend!

[JohnnyMacisBac]

Long live David Gilmour

[AstronomyD0m1ne]

This album calms down my road rage everyday on my ride home from work. Dave's the best.

[suatd3]

Bu sesi duyduğum anda mavi tur aklıma geliyor.

[bartolone84]

[Schischmischrox]

This song is awesome! I love the video.

[alirezamalek]

David Gilmour is the best guitarist, singer and everything in music in the world. I am from Iran , I love Pink Floyd, all of them, Roger Waters, Richard Wright, Nick Mason , Syd Barrett (Rested In Peace) and specially David Gilmour. They are the best.....

[jeiseli]

From 40 years the best guitarist in the world
