Pink Floyd were founded in 1965 by Syd Barrett (guitar, lead vocals), Nick Mason (drums), Roger Waters (bass guitar, vocals), and Richard Wright (keyboards, vocals). Under Barrett's leadership, they released two charting singles and the successful debut album The Piper at the Gates of Dawn (1967). Guitarist and vocalist David Gilmour joined in December 1967; Barrett left in April 1968 due to deteriorating mental health. Waters became the primary lyricist and thematic leader, devising the concepts behind the band's peak success with the albums The Dark Side of the Moon (1973), Wish You Were Here (1975), Animals (1977) and The Wall (1979). The musical film based on The Wall, Pink Floyd – The Wall (1982), won two BAFTA Awards. Pink Floyd also composed several film scores.
Following personal tensions, Wright left Pink Floyd in 1979, followed by Waters in 1985. Gilmour and Mason continued as Pink Floyd, rejoined later by Wright. They produced two more albums—A Momentary Lapse of Reason (1987) and The Division Bell (1994)—and toured in support of both before entering a long hiatus. In 2005, all but Barrett reunited for a one-off performance at the global awareness event Live 8. Barrett died in 2006, and Wright in 2008. The last Pink Floyd studio album, The Endless River (2014), was based on unreleased material from the Division Bell recording sessions. In 2022, Gilmour and Mason reformed Pink Floyd to release the song "Hey, Hey, Rise Up!" in protest of the Russo-Ukrainian War.
By 2013, Pink Floyd had sold more than 250 million records worldwide, making them one of the best-selling music artists of all time. The Dark Side of the Moon and The Wall were inducted into the Grammy Hall of Fame, and these albums and Wish You Were Here are among the best-selling albums of all time. Four Pink Floyd albums topped the US Billboard 200, and five topped the UK Album Chart. Pink Floyd's hit singles include "See Emily Play" (1967), "Money" (1973), "Another Brick in the Wall, Part 2" (1979), "Not Now John" (1983), "On the Turning Away" (1987) and "High Hopes" (1994). They were inducted into the US Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1996 and the UK Music Hall of Fame in 2005. In 2008, Pink Floyd were awarded the Polar Music Prize in Sweden for their contribution to modern music.

Things Left Unsaid
Pink Floyd Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Ah, but a lot of things unsaid as well
We shout and argue and fight, and work it on out
The sum is greater than the parts
Pink Floyd's song "Things Left Unsaid" is an introspective exploration of the unspoken communication and understanding between people. It speaks to the idea that people can have a deep unspoken understanding of one another, even without speaking a word, but despite this understanding, there can still be a lot of things left unsaid. The lyrics suggest that this is a common human experience, where individuals may hold back from expressing their true feelings or thoughts, leading to tension and conflicts that must be worked out in other ways, like shouting or arguing. By creating this sense of tension and uncertainty, the lyrics encourage listeners to examine their own relationships and reflect on the things that might be left unsaid between them and their loved ones.
Line by Line Meaning
We certainly an unspoken understanding
We have a mutual understanding that goes beyond words
Ah but there's a lot of things unsaid as well
Despite our unspoken understanding, there are many important things that we fail to communicate
We shout and argue and fight, and work it on out
We resort to yelling and fighting instead of having open and honest communication to resolve our issues

Lettera al vento.
E' cosi che ti scrivo,
a ricordarti che esisti.
Tu che sei ormai immagine
Fissa sui miei occhi.
Tu che non sai nulla di me.
Vivi dentro il mio sangue
E come cellula impazzita
Mi attraversi il corpo
E sei nutrimento
Del mio amore muto.
Anima dalle morbide curve
Mi inebri .
Vorrei dirti parole di fuoco,
Vorrei accarezzarti il viso
Vorrei specchiarmi negli occhi
Come fosse in un lago
Sulla vetta dei monti.
Vorrei il tuo calore
Il tuo profumo
Il tuo corpo
L' anima e la mente.
Vorrei toccarti il cuore
Ma ,
Non ti diro' mai
Cosa io provo.
Le mie parole sono mute
La mia mente
Esulta all' incontro della tua mente.
Io scrivo...
Io ti comunico
Quanto di bello c'e' in me.
E di questo mio grande amore.
Ma, se tu
Guardi il cielo stellato
E concentri la mente
Sull'astro piu' luminoso
E li che mi trovi.
Io sono l' Universo invisibile
Irraggiungibile,
Luminoso e schivo.
Sono il poeta
Dei sogni
E dei desideri reconditi
Nascosto nel buio
Di una vita
Evaporata
In questo mio universo
Di sabbia e di mare.
Il tuo nome
E' il richiamo
Del mio Eros
Che brama e divora
Lo spazio e il tempo
Infinito.
Molecola divina
Attraversi l' arteria
E vai dritta al mio
Cuore.
Tu uccidi la stella
Che in me
Vive.
Perpetuo e ' il tempo
Immenso il mio
Amore.

This song feels like all my ancestors gathering around me and telling me Everything is going to be OK

That’s quite beautiful. There was a man who had a Near Death Experience back in the 90’s I believe, wrote a book called “Fast Lane to Heaven” by Ned Dougherty and he said that basically the same thing you did.. give that book a read, you’ll enjoy it!

Ooh! I love this!!
@randyorr9443
That statement made me cry.
But that is exactly what's happening.
The universe is speaking directly to us through Floyd.
Stunning, sublime, powerful, gentle and poignant.
It Feels like my soul may already be there

Sometimes I feel like the Floyd could've actually changed the entire world. It changed mine. If their music transcends time and the words have the ability to heal.. Where did we go wrong..we could have had peace. Love. Compassion. I'm changing my life. I'm going to stop beating myself to death with unhappiness and start walking in in the light. Who's with me
@rushabjain792
