DAVE GILMOUR ~ ECHOES feat. Richard Wright {HD 24bit V Remaster} (Live in Gdansk Poland 2008)

Показать описание

One of the best performances of a legendary song by a legendary band. The only band in the world of this kind. Roger Waters said that when he was writing the lyrics to Echoes he realized the new core of thought of Pink Floyd. Human empathy. "...I am you and what I see is me.."

Echoes was the first track of a new self for Pink Floyd. A new self that led to masterpieces like Dark Side of the Moon, Wish you were here, Animals and The Wall. Four masterpieces, four perfect albums released back to back. No other band has ever achieved that and perhaps no band will ever repeat or top that.

If you want to know what the quintessence of music really is and you can't wait, go to 21:05 ..

Tears. It doesn't get better than this..
The Channel of the Pink Floyd Tribute Band I have the honour to be their drummer:

Lyrics:

Overhead the albatross
Hangs motionless upon the air
And deep beneath the rolling waves
In labyrinths of coral caves
An echo of a distant time
Comes willowing across the sand
And everything is green and submarine

And no one called us to the land
And no one knows the where's or why's
Something stirs and something tries
Starts to climb toward the light

Strangers passing in the street
By chance two separate glances meet
And I am you and what I see is me
And do I take you by the hand
And lead you through the land
And help me understand
The best I can

And no one called us to the land
And no one crosses there alive
No one speaks and no one tries
No one flies around the sun

Almost everyday you fall
Upon my waking eyes
Inviting and inciting me
To rise
And through the window in the wall
Come streaming in on sunlight wings
A million bright ambassadors of morning

And no one sings me lullabys
And no one makes me close my eyes
So I throw the windows wide
And call to you across the sky..
