Pink floyd is one trippy band. This is an underated song, but 100 times better then the music we have today

Pink Floyd is my Number 1 favorite band of all time. Perfect reaction 😊👍 thank you to whom ever requested this song ✌

I love this song so much because I feel the lyrics personally. It perfectly describes my own struggles with social anxiety and introversion. And when Gilmour uses the voice box at the end, it’s like he is showing us how he communicates best - through his guitar. It speaks for him. He always manages to convey so much emotion through his instrument that often, there is no need for words. Utterly beautiful

The tube thing is called a talk box. The sound from the guitar is sent from a speaker through the tube, you can then use your mouth to form word sounds using the guitar instead of your vocal cords.

The song is about simple communication. Particularly two people in a relationship. The man unable to express his thoughts and feelings and the woman asking "why won't you talk to me, you never talk to me, what are you thinking, what are you feeling" . At least that's what I get from the song.

I’ve never understood why this hasn’t become a radio standard or whatever. The lyrics are pretty self explanatory. Steven Hawking in it, a dude that needed a computer to talk. And then the symbolism of David playing that voice box (vox?) tied in with his guitar, and no words. It’s a song that has grown on me over the years. And I am getting more of it now than before

The word your searching for is progressive rock yet another fabulous track from the genius of pink floyd can't get enough great reaction

What a very good reaction!!! I listen to Pink Floyd every day !!! I am 72 years old but I hope that a lot of young folks listen to David Gilmour (Pink Floyd ) Great music !!!🥰🙂🙂😊

Rest in peace mr Hawkins. You defied the whole of the medical community.

We as humans are gifted with the ability to talk let's keep talking ,

What van be said? The bass was powerful in this song. Deep and clear. A thick underlining, that sends everything else forward, yet keeping the overall texture beautifully framed. Over the last few days, I've concluded that Nick Mason is a very underrated drummer. I'd not think twice about placing him high in a top ten list. When this was new, it opened my eyes wide. And I could see that I was so guilty of taking communication for granted. Back then, it was more a weapon, than a vital tool for keeping the peace. Look at east Europe right now, "it doesn't have to be like this if we keep talking". I must admit, I laughed when your expression changed into, surprise, disbelief, and curiosity all together when David had that gadget in his mouth. (Just when you thought it was safe to put on headphones, Floyd throw another wild card). Really cool though, isn't it?.

Excellent album Randi ... so pleased that you are enjoying it ☺

Basically how the talk box works is the sound of guitar goes through the tube. You then put it in your mouth and you can essentially talk with the guitar

Basically telling us to keep talking to different people, no matter our differences we are more alike than we think or realize. It's a wake up call!

Their music works on a higher vibration, that's why you feel different.

Gilmour keeps talking - albeit through his guitar! Thanks for reacting to this jam, which is overlooked by most reactors! It is one of my favorites!

It's called a Talk Box. It's an effect guitarists can use to alter the sound of the guitar. Basically it redirects the sound of the guitar from the amp into his throat, he then uses his throat and mouth to change the sound and push it through the mic

HA HA - You're going to stop talking so you can play Keep Talking. 😂 Love it. I'm digging this song too. Was there, (different City). So great to see ppl relating and to see this again. Breaking News - Pulse makes soul connection for all humans.

It's called a talk box. It's basically a tubular speaker that you put into your mouth. So the guitar sound goes into your mouth, which creates the effect that the guitar is 'talking'.

David Gilmore's talented wife wrote a lot of the lyrics for the division bell

One of my favorites

Really enjoying your Pink Floyd reactions, You seem to be an HSP and this really adds something extra as you really feel the music in a profound way

Wow.. not often I see/hear a reaction to this particular song :) Love it when people enjoy their introduction to PF so much :)

It very much is about humanity and how our ability for speech, should keep us from tearing each other apart....

Great Liked and subscribed. Wish you all the best with your channel

its two people standing in the same room, but they cant hear each other, we have all seen that when communication breaks down

There's 2 type of people.. one who listen 2 pink floyd.. the other who understands the words of pink floyd. Music is as such.. if ya feel good bout listening 2 it then thar song is a success 4 u. If u understand it then its a bonus. Either way enjoy.

"Anyway I'm gonna stop talking...." reacting to... Keep Talking hahaha

this is the second edit version of the dvd álbum tour. I suggest to view the first edition. You can apreciate the stage how is react to the music

That was Steven Hawking during the intro...

Great choise🌹

Love the "album week" concept. One or two tracks each day from a specific album: much better than random dips into an album. That applies everywhere, not just for PF.

the final part of this song would be like an extraterrestrial communication...it's something brilliant!

The "album of the week" concept is great - especially since you really should experience PF albums in their entirety - BUT, I have to say that it would be perfectly okay (and I would really recommend it) that you watch some of the other performances from this same concert - Pulse 1994 - whether you've listened to the album yet or not. "Comfortably Numb", "Sorrow", "High Hopes", "Run Like Hell" are not to be missed.

The keyboard is called a synthesizer. These are analogue instruments before the digital age. I've been in rock bands from the age of 12 & I'm now 60 so I'll give you a quick lesson. Synths didn't have presets like modern keyboards (piano, strings, organ ect) you had to construct the sounds by adjusting oscillators, modulators, filters ect. Very popular in the 70s / 80s. The thing in his mouth is called a Vocoder or voice box. By pushing a foot switch you redirect the sound of the guitar to a small speaker in a box on the floor. The sound travels up a plastic hose into the mouth whereby you can change the tone of the guitar by shaping your mouth or even speaking. The sound is then picked up by the mic & amplified. You should really check out the whole pulse live concert for yourself. Pink Floyd are a very visual band so make sure you watch it.

I love this álbum

It's From The Division Bell Album

Listen David Gilmour 1978, So far away

That Voice At The Beginning Is Stephen Hawkings

I would recommend David's solo albums as well. A lot of wonderful guitar and lyrucs.

Keyboard playing is done by PF's late keyboardist, Richard Wright. He was one of the founders of PF. You are talking a synthesizer. Synthesizer can make different sounds.

Hello, we are a kids family band from New Zealand and we do a lot of classic rock covers.. We hope you might like to see a Pink Floyd one we have done of 'Hey You' by Pink Floyd. We reckon it’s a really cool Pink Floyd song! Thanks :)

I had to change the AA battery in my pulse CD last week it lasted a few years lol If you were one of the people to get the CD when it came out the cd had a flashing LED light in the side

It reminds me 2001 Hal death, frightening

Voice talking was done by late well-known physicist, Stephen Hawking thru his electronic device. As we can talk, but there is no communications between anyone such man/woman and his/her significant other.

For me itsinitiallyabout the "discovery " of speach the ability to pass knowlege,andexpiereince down generations which has suported the human project , Communication the greatest human discovery,..

The Animals album needs a reaction

The Masculine and Feminine duality of the song speaks to the difficulties of modern relationships...

99 red balloons.. I thank u mite like..

"For millions of years, mankind lived just like the animals". "Then something happened which unleashed the power of our imagination-we learned to talk". But yet, when we look at what is currently happening in Ukraine, we can question our power to communicate effectively. "It doesn't have to be like this. All we need to do is make sure we keep talking". - Unfortunately, too often, "Your lips move, but I can't hear what you're saying".

Been loving your reactions to this underrated album. There are at least 5 better Pink Floyd Albums for you to listen to next...;)

BED - Listen to the studio version. Your take is very accurate, but it will make more sense on the album cut, I think.

Watch the special edition version and it will tell you what this is about

Anathema do a AWESOME cover live from this...and Stephen Hawking sing with they on stage...!

"pulse 1994" 14 sold out shows in a row. 200 ton stage , 200,000 watts of power, 128 wireless speakers, 53 semi's to move it. Watch any song it will impress you. "Comfortably Numb" ( the greatest solo at the end) "sorrow" " last song " run like hell". you will be a Pink Floyd fan beware.

The sound is Eteherial!

Just an uplifting song

" For millions of years mankind lived just like the animals , then something happened which unleased the power of our imagination , we learned to talk " - Stephen Hawking

This is absolutely beautiful while trippin on a massive dose of psychedelic mushrooms 🍄..........

this is about a marriage falling apart due to lack of open communication,the mouth box speaks for him..

You are one of the most naturally beautiful woman I think I've ever seen!😀

This is a song of what real depression feels like.

it's just a plastic tube. So the voice box is pushing air and by changing his mouth, alters the note he's playing. Believe it or not, Stevie Wonder used one on his keyboard....so maybe you can check into that for yourself!!!! How cool would that be right? That's how you become one with the instrument lol....

They sound even better with weed

The song is about the failure to communicate. Add your sides _____x_____ here.

2.47 in.... if you're doing Pink Floyd, you may want to look into the sound quality of your videos...OK.. back to the content

The speaking, computerized voice was contributed to the album by none other than the late Dr. Stephen Hawking.

Something that I never understand: If this is your first time listening to this song then why not trying the studio version? which is the exact version that the band wants you to experience and is much better.

yeah am out of here, maybe leave your phone alone when reacting, nice try :)

Unfortunately this song means way more than people realize it really means communication for the human race to not stop talking or there will be another World War if we keep up the track we're heading with blinders on the recipe for catastrophe is there on all levels now and so does my WW2 veteran family members that are still left It's like one my favorite songs Folks Keep Talking from my favorite bands Pink Floyd when Stephen Hawking did his famous Commercial in the 90s saying as long as Mankind keeps communicating the human race still has a chance to turn it around no matter how close we get to another catastrophic global disaster like now we face in 2023 like some of my family who faught in WW2 so this never happens again unfortunately they now see all the ingredients are again like it was in 1937 only with hypersonic nukes and way more powerful and devastating warfare weapons on terrifying scale never thought possible it's almost incomprehensible to the mass destruction this will cause you think the most disturbing and scary movie in history threads about a nuclear Holocaust with the most realistic ending in movie history about really what will happen to are human race in end Which is not being able to reproduce because of radiation wasteland on a apocalyptic scale that even surpasses another great WW3 ending movie on the Beach made in the 1950s where Australia was the last country standing waiting for the end of are existence again either way you look at it people like this song represents we need to keep talking or else
