This song kept me from blowing my brains out in 1977. Im still here alive and awakened.

Born 53 naked to the world, it resonated to me. I still play it for my cows. They love it come near the house. Lay down as a concert. Its beautiful.

At 71, I still vividly remember in 1975 putting this seminal album on the turntable of my recently bought Panasonic music centre. I got the album the day it was released. I sat back, admiring the album sleeve artwork, and simply entered another realm of Floydian delight. I'm sure there's untold myriads of fans like me who regard Floyd as the ultimate rock band, light years ahead of the competition. Us Floyd fans will hold this album and the other Floyd masterpieces in our minds till the day we die.... And Pink Floyds music will live on long after that.

You tube interrupting these amazing classics is fucking criminal

I, along with thousands of others, will never buy from any advertiser that has the balls to break up the flow of such an iconic album

Everyone of my friends died of cancer leaving myself to listen to Floyd shine on to you all

My best friend Butch Garvey introduced me to Pink Floyd in 1973. For that Im eternally grateful. Never see my friend anymore, but heres to you Butch. The best friend I ever knew.

Please don't put ads in the middle of this... it violates this masterpiece

Pink floyd is going back on tour again The world needs them right now❤

77 years old. Have been listening to them to the greatest band for ever.

Play this at my funeral please and thank you.

Wish you were here was played at my Brothers funeral, Then at my Wife’s, I play it every day in remembrance. I miss you Brother, I miss my Cindy Lee❤❤😢😢 WISH YOU WERE HERE🥲🥲🥲🥲🥲🥲🥲🥲🥲🥲🥲🥲

A day without Pink Floyd is like a day without sunshine. Let the sun shine in all day long.

70s kid here . I always come back to these timeless classic ❤ what a great era 😊

Some of us shine, some do not. Pink Floyd shined, they were way ahead of their time. Thanks for all the great music growing up ~ 💎

Awesome, I was 15 in 1975. The best music still today.

Only pink floyd can make a song with a 9 minute build up to the lyrics and still make an AMAZING song

I'm still listening to this masterpiece @ 61 years old. And it's just as mesmerizing as it was then. Ironic I'm going through some challenging times now as I was in the 70s ..love me some pink floyd. Now and then ..shine on & rock on you crazy diamonds out there in the world forever

Just another masterpiece courtesy of David Gilmour and Pink Floyd. Such a stirring emotion-filled song.

Thank God I was lucky enough to born in time to catch this all time master piece and listen ❤

Wow I'm now 68 years old I'm still still jamming to this song

This Song is one of the best from Pink Floyd, I am 65jears old, I make with my son every jear one trip about 4000km in France, with motorcycles, and every evening with French wine, we hear this Musik, fantastic

Reminds me of my husband, who passed away. I can feel him in this music as if his body was next to mine.

Thanks, David Gilmour, for all your music. One of my human heroes.

Pink Floyd is the quintessential mind trip away from this stressful life ! Shine on you Crazy Diamonds ! RIP Richard and Syd ! God bless !

My brother got me into Pink Floyd, and I thank him every day for it. Rip Andrew, shine on ♥️♥️

I'm 31 just now listening. Damn near brought me to tears then charged me up. Crazy I remember hearing my parents listening as a child. I was far too young to appreciate

Truely the best and timeless piece of music of modern times. There was, is and maybe will not be a more extraordinary, emotional and structured „song“, as I guess. Now being almost 62, after thousands and thousands of musical pieces - this is it!

Old timer here. Still takes me to the skies 🎶❣️

25 minutes of pure bliss and no f'ing yt ad.

My Mother is in her dying bed as I hear this great band give it its all . I Thank her for haveing me as her son , God I Pray she Makes it into the 5TH Dimention soon !

72 and never heard this before. I am shocked and amazed by this talent. I really need to get out more!

They nailed the essence of Syd, in both the music and the lyrics. Their masterpiece.

Amazing im 62 now and been listening to this for so long. Every year brings a different meaning,feeling to this song

I remember I was 16 when this song came out in 1975. It was on the radio all the time. I can remember that rock and roll music was just making it's transition from AM to FM. What good times they were! I'll never forget them!

i was 20 in 1975...omg, Time Flies but I still love Pink Floyd so much♥️

The most unique band ever. There'll never be another like them !!!

What a classic this album will last. For generations 2 come❤x

Still an amazing sound, brings me close to tears every time I hear it. Pure genius.

We will never hear music of this kind anymore.sad but true

One of the best songs in Rock and Roll history, the four greatest chords ever.

I must say this song is the best representation of my life. Of any song I think of the Ocean Surf pounding over and over again as my view of the passage of time This song is great time passing in my life

THE 70S WERE AWESOME !!!!!! LIFE WAS GREAT. ❤😊

Pink Floyd, timeless music. It's like their music was just released yesterday.

Cant be ahead of your time if your music is timeless!

This is such a good album. It is by far my favorite Floyd album.

I think we appreciate them more as we age

I swear these cords are played directly on my soul. Rip Luke and Deb miss you both.

You don't listen to Pink Floyd... You feel it...

So many comments of people who were xx years old in 1975, well unfortunately I was minus 21 years old when this song came out but still love it and love Pink Floyd in general!!

What a perfect balance of emotions...Of the musical reflection of poignancy in the opening, the profundity of regrets in the Chorus wrt to 'the crazy diamond ', and the Geordie Roadie's existential calmness in life and the prospect of death. It's no wonder this has been one of the soundtracks of my 76 years defying the Second Law of Thermo-Dynamics.

Just admit y'all did acid and this song (albums) f'n changed your life... and still resonates to this day...

From Wikipedia-"Shine On You Crazy Diamond" is a nine-part Pink Floyd composition written by David Gilmour, Roger Waters, and Richard Wright, which appeared on Pink Floyd's 1975 concept album Wish You Were Here. The song is written about and dedicated to founder member Syd Barrett, who departed from the band in 1968 after becoming mentally ill.-The song was conceived and written as a tribute and remembrance to Pink Floyd founding member Syd Barrett---Barrett was eased out of the band in 1968 because his drug use and deteriorating mental health were affecting his ability to integrate with the other band members and create and perform as a musician. He was replaced by his former school friend David Gilmour, who had initially been brought in as second guitarist. The remaining members of the band felt guilty about having removed him, but although they admired Barrett's creativity, they were concerned about his severe mental decline and felt it had been necessary.[8] "Shine on You Crazy Diamond" was first performed on Pink Floyd's 1974 French tour and was recorded for their 1975 concept album Wish You Were Here. The track was originally intended to be a side-long composition, like "Atom Heart Mother" and "Echoes", but was ultimately split into two parts and used to bookend the album, with other newly composed material acting as a bridge- - - - - - -Personnel - - Roger Waters - bass guitar, lead vocals, additional electric guitar on Part VIII, glass harp David Gilmour - electric guitars, backing vocals, Fender Stringmaster pedal steel guitar, additional bass guitar on Part VI, EMS Synthi AKS, glass harp Richard Wright - Hammond organ, ARP String Ensemble, Minimoog, quadruple-tracked EMS VCS 3, clavinet and electric piano on Part VIII, Steinway piano on Parts III, VI and IX, glass harp, backing vocals, Bösendorfer piano on the multi-channel re-release (recorded in 2008). Nick Mason - drums, percussion with: Dick Parry - baritone and tenor saxophones Carlena Williams - backing vocals Venetta Fields - backing vocals

You can really hear the Alan Parsons influence on this album...I was 15 in 75 and hearing this on vinyl for the very first time is a sublime memory...Thousands of listens later; It's even more profound!

Still gives me goosebumps, Floyd was my first band of “My” music and not my “parents” music like the Beatles and Stones, though I worship them also, I got turned on to Floyd by my music teacher in 6th grade, never been right since…😉

Many a night stoned out of my mind listening to floyd. Scary and dark times. Still good though.

I was 18 when this album was released. I already had a copy of Dark Side of the Moon and was worried that Floyd could not match it. How wrong was I ❤

GOD PINK FLOYED , BEEN HEARING U SINCE 72 , DAMN IT I LOVE U..... ❤️

Das ist mehr als nur Musik.....das offenbart das Göttliche 🙏 🍻🍻💖

Pink Floyd changed my life ❤

This album is just one of all of them I still have on vinyl.

I was 16 years old when this was first released. Also one of the first vinyl LP albums I ever purchased. Amazing thing is I still have it today. Somewhere in the far-off future, there will still be people discovering the amazing work of Pink Floyd. "Classical music of the late 1900s"

I was so obsessed with this album back in 75, because I liked Syd so much, this album is the story of Syd, so tragic and so great, shine on you crazy diamond

Masterpiece. Top 3 Pink Floyd track for me.

Holy moly....what did i just hear????....was expecting something i thought was untouchable yet it appeared and had a fuckin carnival attached....phenomenal and beautiful...thank you to whoever's mastery was at work...a masterpiece with diamonds attached..thanks X

How is 50 year old music more relevant Now than Ever. Pink Floyd music will be played for as many years left in the Earth is here. Passed down through Generations.

The 70s were an amazing time for music, nothing was off limits and the eclectic stuff that came out was nothing short of amazing. That will never happen again.

Seventies, feeling the best time of the life.

IYKYK It's almost impossible for me to hear this without my emotions getting the best of me. The late seventies I experienced will never be forgotten. It's amazing to me how relevant these lyrics are today with regards to much of the goings on in the world today.

Was sitting farmers gate summer of 95....sun was scorching down barley fields were baking with heat..shine on U crazy diamond.. everyone can relate.

Regardless of that has been said. Richard Wright was still an important ingredient in this classic.. Excellent edit by the way 🙂

oh, how many of us responded who were just 16 or so when this happened to us... shiny ones don't forget how you feel....

I did this clean edit a long time ago cause no one would bother. thanks BRO now I have it on youtube.

As a professional stoner how can you not like Floyd! Nough said

Rick Wright doesn't get the credit he deserves - he made the classic PF sound. Waters just hoggs the spotlight.

One of the very best of all time.

S - hine on Y - ou crazy D - iamond

Thank you Pink Floyd for allowing me,us, to leave this world for awhile, again .. shine on my friends ❣️✌️💕

Parts 5-9 are Mr wrights dedication to Syd. RIP Richard … you were the spark of PF

This is timeless music, pure magic... All ages can appreciate.... Thank you PF ❤

Love this album

In 1979, I was 15 years old, my uncle brought me an old Grundig TK 141 tape recorder with some worn tapes. The first tape I've ever heard on that machine started with this epic track. It changed my whole life.

Saw Pink Floyd in 1974 at Trentham Gardens. Unforgettable! Didn't play this as Dark Side of the Moon had just been released. Incomparable. No one around like it today. Or, as good.

Love,love,love it...❤ Remaind me on Times, good Times..long ago... ❤

By the time David Gulmour was learning to fly Roger Water had already circumnavigated the whole world.

a true masterpiece, cant describe it otherwise

I was going on 17 when this album was released in 1975…. This is timeless, classic, music!

Essa música não é só uma obra de arte. A primeira parte é simplesmente sublime.

This song has been on my Playlist for a long time. Thanks for the great music over all these years!

That's so beautiful Animals respond to love ❤ energy. It's amazing BE KIND TO ALL❤❤❤SENTIENT BEINGS ❤❤❤

Makes me miss family and friends that have departed.. 😔

Pink Floyd is eternal!

Fav is Part whatever it is on flip side of record. Fricken bass rhythm with synth wind effect, just for starters. Reminds me of driving north on US 395 along the east side of the Sierras, once during meteor shower, too, too cool. We timed Wish to entering Yosemite, also, even if we had to FF the 8-track through half the album! Thanks for combining all the pieces into one!

My favorite music and my son favorite group of all he passed away but always wearing his t shirt the wall shine on ❤

Like another rocker said before me, my brother got me into The Wall. I turned him on to Dark Side of the Moon. Keep shining, Sam! You are always with me! ✌️💋

What a wonderful album

You allowed an ad in the middle of the song? That is a crime against humanity.

Ten years old when Floyd released this classic

There are musicians and then there is Pink Floyd

This album was superb, and this track has always meant so much to me. Even though I am a TI aka Targeted Individual, I will always take immense strength from this song, and remain TRUE to both myself, my three brothers and one beautiful sister; and finally the memory of our deceased parents!
