Pink Floyd’s brand new song


Pink Floyd (Dave Gilmour and Nick Mason) with their bassist Guy Prat debuted a new song today. The singer is a Ukrainian from the band Boom Box collaborated with Pink Floyd to honor those lost in this senseless war. The lyrics are in Russian and it is a great tribute to the Ukrainian people.  The name of the song is, “Hey, Hey Rise Up”

Waters is still mad at Gilmour for not being allowed to post on the official PF site. Since he left PF over 30 years ago, there is no reason for him to post on their page, but he just does not get it. 

@stereo5 - Thanks for posting this.

... and thanks to others for many thoughtful and informative comments.

Peace.

He condemned the Ukrainian war but disagrees with military retaliation.  

PF and Waters had a semi recent spat over liner notes.  It does get a little sticky when he was the self imposed leader and creative force on several albums.

 

Who really cares if Roger is on it or not...it's the thought and message behind the song that counts. 

It’s just awesome to see/hear Nick Mason and David Gilmour at it again since Endless River. They were smart enough to let to get a Ukrainian Artist to sing the lyrics. Pink Floyd as everyone here knows is also famous for soundtracks and that’s exactly what “the boys” provided here.

Plodding or not. It’s one song FFS’s.

On another topic. Sad that Peter Gabriel did not sing on the last song of the last Genesis show at the O2 Center. He was in attendance. A total reversal of the PF saga where RW assumed he was PF at point. Gabriel was never like that has always supported his fellow band mates whenever possible (Take Me Home - PC) and they him (1982’s WOMAD).
