An Elevator, I heard it as a Flying Saucer. Ha ha, an Elevator. No, never.

4.37 someone call the Chilli Peppers. Ruined scar tissue for me 😅

Worst interviewer ever!

I feel like a bit of a heretic. I've only heard DSOTM and WYWH. And yet I call myself a Floyd fan.

How can the most prolific guitar players EVER be so humble and gentle... I would be an AHOLE😅

Really, where does anyone come up with those figures? I totally disagree with those numbers they are too low for sure, e.g. Pink Floyd - Another Brick In The Wall, Part Two (Official Music Video) alone has 53M views.

Im told David didnt like The Final Cut.

Amazing that Gilmour with his incredible ear having to spend so much time persuading people to allow his auditory vision to take place. He is amazing

That cannot be right. I’ve listened to it at least 100000 times myself.

Early Radiohead.

From an acid dropping hippie to a British royal. Amazing life

My mother just passed away I wanted wish you were here and my aunt said it wasn't appropriate I guess I have no say she is really starting to piss me off she wants nothing but country

“330,000 times.” So, like, once per three albums sold? I think bro meant 330 million times. 😂

Wish u were here was far better than the Wall. I didn't luke the Wall. Too political.

"We were pretty boring to look at anyway". Er, incorrect.

Pink Floyd 🩷 is the Greatest brock band ever... period . Nobody comes even close

You can simplify Rick wrights importance in Pink Floyd by naming one album, The final cut. the only Pink Floyd album with no Rick Wright in it and it was the worst album they ever made and it actually sucks really bad. I call it the wall part 2

Those chords by David are quite mesmerising...I bought WYWH right as it came out...

Richard Wright is a huge unsung hero in the sound of Floyd

I was laughing my ass off hearing David talk about the sounds of an elevator

Me, giving the interview: "Since 1980, its been played *330,000* times...!" David: stares, waiting for the interesting part Me: "So um...yeah. I thought that was... pretty cool....." [drops notes on floor]

❤🎸

To sit down … and … pick the right question to ask this man … let’s have a drink first … thank you

Why not have 2 parts to it - PT 1 favouring Gilmour's vision and PT2 favouring Waters' vision.Let the audience decide. I would have loved both versions!!🙂

The president of Ukraine 😂😂😂

Ok so he admits he would play other peoples stuff. I’m super curious what he says about “almost Independence Day?” The song seems like it could have been the building blocks to wywh. Not only the riff but also the lead line. Obviously noodling around it that key things will sound similar. That’s prime real-estate for riff writing. So many riffs come from that spot on the guitar. I imagine he must have been listening to Van at the time. I just wanted to know if he was inspired by that song directly or indirectly or hadn’t even heard it at the time. He would have had a solid 2 years to have heard it. I think they might have even been friends but I’m not sure of the history of Van and PF relationship together. Anyone ever heard any history, or if Gilmore has ever even commented on this question??? Thanks

I wish I can go on a fishing trip whit the floyds🎼🎙🎤🎼🎶🎵🎶🎼🎤🎙my drug is music and my pusher his pink floyd❤❤

I can comfortably say (no pun intended) that David has the most soothing voice ever.

Loved this. Cool info that I never knew and also always fun to hear David talking about the old days

330,000 times? The interviewer lost all credibility right there.

No mention of Roger which is somewhat disingenuous as Dave is at best a mediocre songwriter apart from the guitar element of the music where he excels obviously. Roger wrote just about everything after Syd’s death until 1985.

A brilliant musician and composer. Wish they could get their shit together and make new music. Nice interview. Gilmour is an intense guy.

330.000 radio plays peeps. This was before Spotify's CEO was born 😂😂 you've got to multiply each play for the (potential) millions of people's that were listening

When I was a young guitar player, I used to think he was using an effect because when he plays, it sounds like his guitar is almost breathing. Really, one of the greatest players of all times.

Does the interviewer know what it means for David Gilmour to be in a room, right in front of you, playing those historical sounds?

Imagine the ego you have when you hear, for 50 years, that you took part in creating one of the greatest, best selling albums ever, and also Dark Side.

Dave still looks weird with a Les Paul

In 2023 it’s got 700,000,000 plays

David Gilmour best guitar player in the world. My fav of all times.

Haunting solos and great songs, however he owes Roger Waters a hell of a lot that he should be more humble about it...

It's amazing just how much David Gilmour sounds like David Gilmour.

Their music helped me out during a difficult time in my life. 😊

By respect to your music 😢

Is there a full interview on KZfaq?

Has been played 330,000 times, lol reminds me of Conan O'Brien joking about how his show has hundreds of viewers

One thing I’d like to know is if by today’s standards, if all of Roger Waters’ solo writing credits would still be intact. These days, if you were in the room and made a minor suggestion, you end up in the writing credits. That’s why so many songs today have up to fourteen “writers”. But in the old days, if Sting or Roger or Bruce came in with a general framework or structure, he’d get sole writing credit whether or not the rest of the band really did help turn the song into something special. So I’d like to know, if all those songs Waters gets sole credit on, how much or how little did the rest of the band contribute? I’m willing to bet it’s a lot more than Waters is willing to share credit for. A few months back he rather insultingly said “I wrote The Dark Side of the Moon. Let’s get rid of all this ‘we’ crap.”

Roger owes EVERYTHING to David and Richard. Let's be real.

I'm.proud to admit that I am responsible for 34000 of those plays

I was obsessed with pink Floyd 14 years ago when I was 14 and I'm obsessed again. Except now I know their faces and history and they are even more entrancing as people with a story and pretty faces.

Invention by following the advice of someone who didnt know what they were talking about 😂
