*ABOUT DAVID GILMOUR*

A Cambridge friend of Syd Barrett, David joined Syd, with Roger Waters, Richard Wright, and Nick Mason, in Pink Floyd in early 1968, only for Syd to leave the group five gigs later. Pink Floyd's subsequent huge worldwide success continued after Roger Waters' departure in 1985, with the albums A Momentary Lapse Of Reason and The Division Bell both charting at No. 1 in the UK and the US, and sell-out world tours. Rattle That Lock released in 2015 and David’s 4th solo album, went to No. 1 in 13 countries. In 2017, Live at Pompeii released as a live album and film which was recorded at the Amphitheatre of Pompeii.

The most "Pink Floyd" not "Pink Floyd" song that David has ever written, the crown jewel of his songs. 👐💎💞

[SpinfueleMag]

His “sound” can move me in ways no one else can.

[AJGUNNER]

This is fantastic.
I was very fortunate to have toured with David and The rest of the Rock Masters of the machine known as Pink Floyd, during their 3 year Delicate Sounds of Thunder/Momentary Lapse of Reason World Tour. Without a doubt, Pink Floyd is and was one of the Greatest Bands to work with. Thanks for the memories.

[Lilypad]

I love this song. And Crosby and Nash sound so good singing with him. ❤

[TamraOstrihonsky]

Love this man’s voice ❤ always have always will …

On an Island
David Gilmour

Remember that night
White steps in the moonlight
They walked here too
Through empty playground, this ghosts' town
Children again, on rusting swings getting higher
Sharing a dream, on an island, it felt right
We lay side by side
Between the moon and the tide
Mapping the stars for a while
Let the night surround you
We're halfway to the stars
Ebb and flow
Let it go
Feel her warmth beside you

Remember that night
The warmth and the laughter
Candles burned
Though the church was deserted
At dawn we went down through empty streets to the harbor
Dreamers may leave, but they're here ever after
Let the night surround you
We're halfway to the stars
Ebb and flow
Let it go
Feel her warmth beside you.

This, and Echoes, are my go to songs when I'm going diving - for some reason they perfectly capture that wonderfully peaceful feeling I get when I'm under water. I wish there was some way I could actually listen to them whilst I'm actually diving, that would be heaven.

[andreasd]

The album is my personal highlight in your solo career

[bevminor]

This is just one gorgeous piece of music and song!

[mrdan]

Amazing how Mr Gilmour is always sticking to his iconic sound!
I love every second of this beautiful song!
Thank you!

[ogawasan]

Mr.Gilmour's guitar never let us down

[Cognichem]

That guitar solo @5:05 cried my heart out. Lots of love, Dave!

[alessandro]

Listen to gilmour's "on an island" while watching the moon mirrored in the sea at midnight.... Purely poetry

[ВалентинЛипский-ий]

David you are a consummate musician. You are among all musicians, like a Mercedes among all other cars. You are the best forever. I've been listening to you since 1973. Your music never gets boring, it's very amazing!

[MrDaveangelo]

How something so soft can sound so heavy. Pure miracle. Gilmour is a true showcase of human artistic brilliance. And that second guitar solo, my god...

[EstateItalia]

This song will be a classic anthem within a few years...

[Ahmad-Mounir]

I remember when this album first released in 2006 which was the same year I got promoted in my new job. I was 27 yrs old. Now, I am 41. Time

[vramiro]

Este disco me acompañó mucho tiempo. Salió cuando yo estaba cerca de los 20 años y me sentía afortunado de saber que Dave aún hacía música increíble, y sigue vigente hasta hoy. Siempre estaré agradecido.

[kimmyles]

Beautiful guitar moments or solo. Brings such peaceful feelings to my soul.

[spacelyzrocketband]

When I heard that they actioned off much of the Floyd equipment including guitars I was very sad but grateful to have seen them many times, then I felt blessed to be alive at the same time that D.G. was. The best thing about being old is the memories, I just hate the though of when I will lose my mind, but I hope I can just live for the moment then.
