FORMED: 1965, London, England

David Jon Gilmour
United Kingdom

Born March 6, 1946

Has 7 children....Sara, Clare, Alice and Matthew by Ginger,
Joe and Gabriel by Polly, and Charlie who is Polly's son by
a first marriage.

In contrast to Roger, Dave was reared by permissive and
easygoing parents. At 13, he was given a Spanish guitar by
a neighbor and so the journey began. Dave's greatest
musical asset is his sense of feel and timing, according to
one former member of Jokers Wild, and to some present day
fans, we would have to say that his talents reach beyond
that to include a marriage of heart to guitar and tender
concern for humanity.

When Dave was a young teenager, his father's profession
drew him overseas, to the U.S., leaving Dave to

    Review about Pink Floyd

    Best song by a great group | Reviewer: John
        ------ About the song Echoes performed by Pink Floyd

    After reading all of the reviews, I'm not sure that Pink Floyd is the greatest band, or Echoes the greatest song, but it IS the greatest song by this great band. I was blessed to see the Dark Side of the Moon tour (Waterbury CT) in 73 and most of the Meddle album was played, along with the live side of Ummagumma. Great memories... Contrary to many thoughts here, I think Roger Waters was the heart and soul of the band.


    beautiful..... | Reviewer: Sean Menezes
        ------ About the song Coming back to life performed by Pink Floyd

    ' i knew the moment had arrived,
    Of killing the past and coming back to life'

    These words mean a lot of ifferent things to different pple.... but the pure beauty of the song lies in these two magical lines..... it takes my breath away... and just keeps me goin... no matter what......thanks floyd.


    Wish you were here | Reviewer: Anonymous
        ------ About the song Wish you were here performed by Pink Floyd

    I love this song, i really do, amazing doesn't capture it, it's such a sad song, brilliant, but sad, never felt such emotions to a song, but this song, it's impossible for it not to effect you. And in risk of being called a 'fag' this song has brought me to tears before.


    I Still Do | Reviewer: WishSomeoneWasn'tHere
        ------ About the song Wish you were here performed by Pink Floyd

    Anonymous, what makes you think she's looking for pity? The song is as you mentioned about their lost Sid, what makes him worth any more than her dear departed? Perhaps he is more relevant to us fans who know and love him, but I still appreciate her sentiment to a lost father. Why not exercise a bit of tolerance and keep your mouth shut? Its possible for others like us to appreciate her sentiment, and not feel we have to pity. Not all sentiment expressed is a plea for pity, unless you are a shallow thoughtless fool.


    Echoes - A Masterpiece of the Rock Age | Reviewer: Michael Griffo
        ------ About the song Echoes performed by Pink Floyd

    I am 53, and was fortunate enough to see Pink Floyd in concert in Tucson, AZ, the Meddle tour, and of course they played Echoes. It was total perfection, as all Pink Floyd acts are. They had a large quadraphonic sound system, and they used it to full capacity. All those eerie sounds swirling around, blasting from the back, then moving towards the front, it was undescribable. They were using special effect smoke machines, and quite honestly, the smoke was so thick, I could hardly see the band members, even though I was right in front. Anyway - I too was hooked on Echoes months before the concert, and oddly enough, one of my thoughts was that in the event of my death and consequent funeral, I wanted want this song to be played loudly, full lenght, before anything else was to go on. I'm not sure I still feel that way, but that is how much this song had an effect on me. Almost a religious, life changing effect that still moves me to this day, almost 40 years later. Nobody is even coming close to making this kind of sound and music anymore, it's an era gone by.

        ------ About the song Welcome to the machine performed by Pink Floyd

    actually, "shine on you crazy diamond" and "wish you were here" are both about syd barrett. "welcome to the machine" and "have a cigar" deal with the music industry and its leeching ways. thought the star wars thing was pretty funny.


    flooded with thoughts | Reviewer: ggee
        ------ About the song Echoes performed by Pink Floyd

    I love this song..
    It is not like any other song you hear just to listen to something. I listen to it every night when going to sleep and from the moment the first "tunnn" is heard I start imagining things and fabricating different reallities in my mind until the moment I fall asleep. It is like I m on a trip from the psychedelic sounds of Echoes and my fantasy is hyper excited!


    ...left behind... | Reviewer: Guy Montag
        ------ About the song When the Tigers broke free performed by Pink Floyd

    Jose, those miserable black days have not been left behind, unfortunately. Workers like us still feed the same fat businessmen, as well as their agents: governments and generals... We're not free, no matter what the media says. Our boys are still dying out there; now it isn't Anzio anymore, now its always somewhere in the Third World. Dying for what? To keep oppressors as warm and well-fed as usual. People were all left behind in the forties, and we are all left behind now as well...


    left behind... | Reviewer: Guy Montag
        ------ About the song When the Tigers broke free performed by Pink Floyd

    Those black and miserable days were not left behind, unfortunately. Our boys are still dying out there... it's not Anzio anymore, now it's always somewhere in the Third World... and dying for what? To keep those who rule as warm, safe and well-fed as usual. We're not free.


    Note To Nicolas:) | Reviewer: Karen
        ------ About the song Brain damage performed by Pink Floyd

    You're right the line where Rogers sings "And if the band you're in starts playing different tunes
    I'll see you on the dark side of the moon." That was for Syd Barrett the former lead singer... During some of their shows he would stop playing and just stare into space... Or he'd start playing a completely different song than the rest of the band... It makes me quite sad he was a brilliant musician.


    the song is about..... | Reviewer: shanna
        ------ About the song Comfortably numb performed by Pink Floyd

    OK people my interpretation is....... HEROIN your comfortably numb on it first of all... (just a little pin prick)= shooting it.... But you may feel a little sick= it does make you feel sick,
    Can you stand up? = obviously
    I do believe it's working, good. =looking high
    That'll keep you going through the show
    Come on it's time to go.= now you feel better because if you don't have it your sick and that will get you through the show until the end
    There is no pain you are receding = you have no pain at all on heroin so that is the song take it or leave it its about heroin people!




    Man.. | Reviewer: Darth Umbra
        ------ About the song Welcome to the machine performed by Pink Floyd

    This song always gets to me. Always has and always will. It was my first audition piece (by choice) when I tried out for all-region choir at the age of 9...and it still remains my all time fave Floyd song.


    It's about aviation, but! | Reviewer: Adonis
        ------ About the song Learning to fly performed by Pink Floyd

    As someone who has flown in his life, I say, the song IS about aviation, but...
    Flying is often associated with freedom, serenity, and a state of bliss (as the lyrics themselves say). So, it can be interpreted in more than one way. And for me (and I can safely say anyone who has ever flown) it is a metaphor for spiritual freedom.


    green is the colour | Reviewer: tobyn
        ------ About the song Green is the colour performed by Pink Floyd

    wow what a great song im only 15 but i hope to listen to this song everyday til i die. Pink Floyd comes out with such spectacular music, like Wish You Were Here, One of these Days. & of course theyre original


    great | Reviewer: santosh hamal
        ------ About the song Comfortably numb performed by Pink Floyd

    this is the great psychedelic song i have ever listened and gilmours lead solo of the song os great and roger waters vocal combination is too great also and i want to say as a whole pink flyod combination is simply too great


    The best, period | Reviewer: SimonS
        ------ About the song Echoes performed by Pink Floyd

    This song is epic, it truely takes my mind off to another place of peaceful introspection. Along with Darkside, i could listen to this over, and over, and never ever get tired of it. A masterpiece if ever there was one!

    My interpretation of the song fits with a perspective of an alienated person who sees the sad truth about the higher, and last, stages of human evolution, possibly from beyond the time, looking back at what was once, but forgotten to the past. I don know.. it just seems to meld perfectly with some hidden truth of our present state/society


    Syd | Reviewer: Tee
        ------ About the song See Emily play performed by Pink Floyd

    Syd's breakdown was due to mental illness, the drugs didn't have that great an effect. David Gilmour has said Syd would've had a breakdown whether or not he used LSD. Syd most likely suffered from Hebephrenic Schizophrenia. Still, it's a big loss either way.


    always nice music. | Reviewer: Sia
        ------ About the song Green is the colour performed by Pink Floyd

    Since I was a teenager, my favorite mellow melodi was, and still is, Green is the colour.
    I believe that when it was created, you all felt wournable, but safe, maybe almost happy.

    I know I feel pretty and happy inside , everytime I hear it, and it's pretty often.
    ,
    Green is the colour:

    Is still following me, from 14 years, now im 51.

    Roger over,
    Sia from Denmark.


    Syd | Reviewer: Tee
        ------ About artist/band Pink Floyd

    Syd didn't have dementia, nor was he an "Acid Casualty." Most probably he suffered from Hebephrenic Schizophrenia, a form of the illness whose symptoms often mimic other mental illnesses and is therefore rarely diagnosed correctly. Truly, the biggest loss from schizophrenia is the loss of the person's personality. That person no longer exists. Fans, friends and family alike all lost a great songwriter and musician.


    High Hopes | Reviewer: SSDD
        ------ About the song High Hopes performed by Pink Floyd

    Everytime i listen to this song i always think about the life that has passed me by and all the opportunities i had missed and all the chances i had been foolinsh enough not to take, all the friendships lost and brings a sadness that no other song does. The best song ever IMHO.
