David Gilmour of Pink Floyd

Dave Gilmour is still nice. But look over here! Mike Douglass, Liberace, gorgeous in a leopard suit with Chinchilla buttons! AND Mr. Little Richard. Now those were sexy men of your time OP. Back when you were 25. Gay, right?

He looks like Nicholas Hoult.

He was gorgeous. The kind to turn anyone's head. Straight, though, as far as we know.

I saw him in and old documentary the other day and noticed his youthful beauty.

Here's David Gilmour (maybe 10 years ago) with Al Green & Jools Holland, Let's Stay Together. Jools Holland (piano) was obviously the boss & his piano sound was cranked up. Gilmour's guitar was turned way down although this song does have some parts where a guitar can shine. Holland looked like he was in awe of Al; Gilmour looked like he was in awe of himself.

But let's face it: this song is about Al Green's voice. At the end, Gilmour looks at the audience like it was all about him.

That said, didn't realize David Gilmour was ever good-looking like how he looks at OP's photo.

Half a century ago

It's always about Al Green's voice. And young Al Green was finer and sexier than David Gilmour could even pretend to be.

Like this, R7?

Gilmour is still handsome.

Why yes, R8.

Here too. There and everywhere. Sexy ass Al Green.

Nicholas Hoult looks like Gilmour once did, R2.

Have mercy.

Uhm, let's go Al.

I'm no fan of his music but he was pretty.

He's an underappreciated guitar god.

I’m in the music business. In person, Gilmour’s an asshole.

What did Gilmour do to you, R16?

On a press tour he was very difficult and uncooperative.

Gilmour is underappreciated? On what planet, R15?

R18 Was this before or after his son's trouble?

^ Jude is a short-arse. Everyone else is SO wrinkled.

R20 in 1988.

R23 You can't expect venerated people to behave like ordinary people.

Some people —Americans, perhaps— enjoy venerating people and enjoy the behaviour —both good and bad— that goes with it.

He was gorgeous. Always loved his voice too, unlike Roger Waters’.

He was gorgeous though I suspect that the OP's gorgeous photo has been digitally enhanced.

Roger Waters was plain in the late sixties early seventies, then turned into a silver fox looking Richard Gere dude n the 80s

He looks like Damian Hurley back then.

Yes, he has amazingly kissable lips in the OP's photo.

I imagine the groupie's lined up.

.....

One of those pretty, sexy English boys we elders all wished we had in their early beauty: Gilmour, Law, McCartney, Frampton, Nash, pre-surgery Everett, Firth, Dance, the lust is long. Ha-ha, so is the list.

“High Hopes” is one of my favourite songs of all time.

Nope OP. he's straight (how I wish he were otherwise) and by nearly all accounts a remarkably nice man.

And much, MUCH hotter than Al Green.

No one is hotter than Al Green. You're the resident DL RACIST nutjob. R34 is always lusting over old WHITE men in CAPS!! Straight white men and JOAN CRAWFORD! DL's resident. How long will your rampage last tonight on this site? We're praying you away. Find Jesus, before he finds you R34.

R35 Why don't you start a separate thread about this person you're talking about who's irrelevant to David?

I was just commenting R36. Cuz Al Green was the sexy ass bomb! OooweeeEEE! Beyond sexy. I love Pink Floyd. I was barely alive for either of them, born in 1983. Pink Floyd's music is more genius than even they knew. But to say that Al Green is not as sexy as Gilmour is just silly. Sexy is more than some old gay troll's obsession with STRAIGHT WHITE men with straight noses and pouty lips. Sexy is always about a look AND an energy. Al Green and Teddy Pendergrass were the sexiest singers of the 1970s. Period. If I have to pick a white boy - it would be Jagger. His ENERGY and vibe was completely sexual.

I never knew what Gilmour even looked like before this thread. He was a pretty white guy. Al Green was SEXY ass MAN. Forever and ever. That voice and his face and the way he used them....mercy.

He used to model as a side gig.

[quote]He looks like Nicholas Hoult.

I'm glad someone else finally said this. I've been telling people Nicholas needs to play Gilmour in a Pink Floyd movie for years. And Dane DeHaan should play a young Bowie.

[quote] He used to model as a side gig.

I'd like to see David model swimwear.

[R40], there's a pic of him in a swimsuit underwater in the vinyl gatefold of his self titled solo album, released in 1978, I think.

I see a Milla Jovovich resemblance in the OP's linked photo.

He's not bad, but I'm not thirsty like some of you.

Any sizemeat verificatia?

It means nothing, but David Gilmour & I have the same birthday...though we're just a FEW years apart (nearly forty).

[quote] amazingly kissable lips

I wish he made a Jerk-Off Video when he was 20 years old just like 20 year olds do today.

He's the reason I knew I was a lesbian. I was in love with women who looked like this. Still am.

R16 I’ve always gotten the impression in interviews I’ve read of him that he’s prickly, doesn’t suffer fools, and is something of a sarcastic wiseass. Fantastic, if deliberate guitar player though. His voice is underrated as well.

“On the Turning Away” is a fantastic song.

you al green fans sound like my southern momma about charlie pride..."that's one singing black man!"

you know she wanted it.

Is he gay friendly?

He's been married twice and has eight kids.

Yes he was quite a beautiful man in his prime. In fact, he also did some modeling before he became a professional musician. He actually aged much better than most musicians too. And yes, he is straight. That's fine, I can appreciate someone's beauty without trying to make them fit my own preference.

For a brief second, young DiCaprio looked like this man.

R34 no, not by all accounts. Actually by very few accounts. I know countless people who have met him. To a one they all say he is a raging asshole of the first order.

R56, explain

R56 Countless? Who are you, Roger Waters?

Gilmour is significantly less of an asshole than Waters.
