bullet"Hey You" is a track from Pink Floyd's blockbuster 1979 album The Wall, with an interesting history.
bulletRoger Waters and guitarist David Gilmour both sing on "Hey You." The two musicians were increasingly at odds with each other during the recording of the album.
bulletThe song was moved around in the running order on the album. Originally it was the end of "side three," after "Comfortably Numb" -- but then it was moved to the beginning of the side. The printed lyrics on the original record sleeve have it at the end, though, confusing many fans.
bullet"Hey You" was the opening of the "second act" of the band's live performance of The Wall, and featured the band playing the song behind a huge wall of white bricks that had been constructed onstage during the "first act." The audience could not see the band at all during the song, just spotlights which roamed over the concert hall.
bullet"Hey You" is not included in the 1982 film version of The Wall. It was cut due to fears that the film was running too long. A rough cut of what the song would have looked like is included in some DVD releases of the film.
bulletThe Wall went to Number One on the Billboard 200 chart in the U.S. the week of January 19th, 1980, and held its top spot for 15 weeks.
bulletWhen Roger Waters staged the all-star concert The Wall Live In Berlin in 1990, singer Paul Carrack (of Squeeze and Mike + the Mechanics) sang "Hey You."
bulletThe Wall has been certified 23-times-platinum, for sales of over 23 million copies. Interestingly, its last sales certification was in 1999 -- any sales since then are not included in the figure.
