Punk Rocker's First Time Heariing Pink Floyd - Time (2011 Remastered) [Reaction & Review]

[@CarlaHolley]

you have to, for yourself, listen to the entire album. it's a masterpiece.

[@Dirty10]

sounds like a great idea!

[@Rageagainsttheelites]

Yeah not just in the way of every song but every song on the album flows together in a beautiful way. Its like a journey from start to finish.

PINK FLOYD AND THE PAUSE BUTTON DON'T GO TOGETHER

[@davechattoe9144]

Couldn't agree more. Although on the other hand, to see a new listener to Floyd they get that moment of understanding of having to relax, put down their guard and let the band take over to that other side "Of the Moon" Keep 0n keeping on bud. That whole album is meant to be played front to back as it's an experience.

[@doxy1192]

I agree, although I believe pausing during a reaction is completely necessary to portray thoughts, although you should never pause during a solo.

[@lalolanda1161]

In this case he paused the video to show his interpretation, I liked his reaction, it shows that he was really listening to the song

[@tommywulfric9768]

You managed to rewind a few seconds on each pause so nothing was missed....and didn't pause during the legendary guitar solo....for which I am immensely pleased ....enjoyed your reaction 👍

[@jsbuser]

If your a punk fan then have a listen to Animals. More anger and cynicism than most punk albums.

[@tomhartl6330]

Dude...LOVED your reaction to this. You got the message. I first heard tis song in 1973 when I was 17...it changed my life. What you need to do, my friend, is listen to Dark Side of the Moon from beginning to end...that’s the way it was intended. It’s a trip. That change you heard at the end was a reprise of Breathe, the second song on the album. At the VERY LEAST, listen to Time an the next song together....it’s Great Gig in the Sky, and it will BLOW YOU AWAy. i PROMISE YOU!

[@helmutvogel901]

My sentiments exactly!! And I was 13 when it came out myself. In fact, first time I heard Time was for somebody's science project, and they did their project on time, and played the song during their presentation! The whole damn school loved it!!

[@eener1955]

Tom, I was 17 back in '73, and must have listened to DSotM a zillion, but I just didn't quite get the gravity of the lyrics to "Time" until on day, in 1996 when my kids and I were packing to move, they wanted to hear some of my old vinyl LPs. My daughter was 18, my son was 14, and I was 41, and I made us sandwiches and we sat and listened to DSotM, in its entirety. The kids were blown away by the album, and they asked me if I felt old listening to it. I hadn't until they asked me, but what really blew my mind was when they commented about how depressing it must be to in yer 40s and ya don't know where the time went. I was gobsmacked! I must have known what the lyrics meant, but they really didn't seem to pertain to me back when I was 17. My kids were obviously a lot more sophisticated than I was at their age. LOL But now, I have just turned 65, and those same lyrics make my heart ache with longing for a second chance to hear that starting gun. It's very haunting. Especially during this COVID-19 lock-down, period, when time seems to go by even faster. Every day is exactly the same. Trent Reznor of Nine Inch Nails wrote a song called "Every Day is Exactly the Same" on the With Teeth album. It's a real "cheery" song that could actually be the 2020 COVID Anthem. LOL *le sigh* As me Da used to tell me, "Getting old is a bitch because it's later than you think, Rene, and time's up."

[@glennbrock6560]

The ending part was actually a reprise of the 2nd song on the album "Breathe".

[@Dirty10]

so breathe is an entire song entirely? so cool

[@glennbrock6560]

@@Dirty10 Maybe you can do the whole Dark Side of the Moon album, each side is 1 musical piece, so side 1 (5 songs) is just 19 minutes, side 2 (5 songs ,23 mins)

[@CanadianPunker62]

It's interesting that everyone that reacts to this song always seems to think of a heartbeat first when the ticking starts. to me it was always like the ticking of a second hand considering the song is named Time and all the alarm clocks at the beginning

[@jacobreisser8034]

It's quite usual for people new to Floyd to say Wow a lot! I've been listening to them since the sixties and still say it.

I can guarantee you that you heroes never stayed away from "mainstream". Great musicians all have one thing in common: they don't think in genres, they just think in music.

[@karenglenn6707]

I first heard this album when I was 15 and it blew my little mind. We all used to sit around, smoke joints and just get lost in this whole album. I am now 60 and it still gives me goosebumps, even without the joints. Timeless!!

[@ddriveddrive4986]

Far away across the field (cemetery) the iron bell (church bell) it’s a funeral bud. The next song is called “the great gig in the sky” it’s about the moments of death

[@davexvs]

spot on {:-) PAV uk

[@tjmctube]

Yup. To hear the softly spoken magic spell. A funeral service.

[@qayak]

Not a funeral. You don't kneel at a funeral. It's just a Sunday in England. The bell tolls to call the faithful to church where they kneel and pray. The prayers are the softly spoken magic spells. My impression of the song is that it represents someone who is not religious sitting thinking about time on a Sunday. Concluding their thoughts they realize the didn't say very much about time, which is a huge concept. As they realise this the church bells in their town begin tolling, calling the faithful . . . Another wasted day which is what the song is lamenting. All the time we waste, and all the things we think are important that really aren't.

[@ddriveddrive4986]

qayak oof nope 👎 the upcoming song is the great gig in the sky

[@ddriveddrive4986]

qayak how old might you be? I would guess a child?

[@0gkmedia0]

Nice reaction my friend. I'm happy for you that you enjoyed the song. Pink Floyd is much more than background mainstream music. It is always deep in lyrics. Pink Floyd can change your life. Hope you go deeper into their music.

[@daveyjones6465]

Hey my man pink floyd were never mainstream music this album stayed in the billboard album charts continuously from 1973 to 1988 good review tnx

[@Tressym66]

I'm sure someone has already pointed this out. The second song on Dark Side of the Moon is Breathe, a song about being born and having different paths in life to choose from. What you heard after Time is Breathe - Reprise. It probably didn't seem like it at first, but it does tie into the message of Time as well as continues the message of different paths. He has chosen the path of pursuing wealth and spends his free time warming his bones by the fire, while others turn to religion or something spiritual.

[@andrewchirgwin4136]

Really? This album is still in the charts after over 40 years, a masterpiece, and if you have never heard of Dave Gilmour or any other Pink floyd music you need to catch up.

[@robertakline9785]

like chasing the sun? Was feeling kind of sorry for this guy. Thankfully he still has TIME to listen.

[@wullieman]

Quick.

[@rff2552]

It was a reprise of the song Breathe. The "softly magic spell" is religion and afterlife

[@psbarrow]

The last section (Breathe Reprise) is when the singer returns to his parental home ("Home, home again"), for his parent(s) funeral and prayers at a church ("the tolling of the iron bell, calls the faithful to their knees, to hear the softly, spoken magic spells").

[@GergLounge]

I thought that section was about reconciling thoughts on passing time (aging, inevitability, etc...) while observing other people participating in church life; those people seeking relief from the same questions.

[@thesound-chameleonman3580]

wow deep....

[@mattlewis4972]

The many comments about the "Reprise" being about the singer's transition into his final years and days of life are spot on. Running "to catch up with the sun" speaks about the years getting shorter as we get older and hurrying to finish goals in life before time runs out.

[@heliotropezzz333]

I understand that section of the song as him at his own home hearing the local church bells which are rung traditionally to call people to church for a service, and people are praying in hope of life after death, but he calls the prayers 'softly spoken magic spells' which implies there is no life after death, or the hearer of the church bells (writer of the song) doesn't believe there is any life after death.

[@GergLounge]

@@heliotropezzz333 I agree completely. @psbarrow the stanza also includes "Far away, across the field..." This hints at an element of distance between the narrator and the church activities.

[@DazzleMonroe]

These lyrics have been with me since I was a kid. In my teens I joined a band. In my 20s, 30s, 40s and 50s, playing in bands took me around the world. Even in my early 50s I was still touring, right up to when covid hit. I'm now 56 and living by the sea. I have drums permanently set up and I play for an hour before I even turn the coffee machine on. Then I fill my days with swimming in the sea, taking photos, making videos, and now that gigs are happening again, going to gigs. As soon as my band is ready to play again, I'm stage ready. I know many people of my age who are now resigned to the fact that their active life is coming to an end, but fck that! I've got plenty of things still left to do. In part, I thank this song for that.

[@fryloc0034]

To answer your question about the final lyrics.... The song takes you from child hood through life until death. So at the end , the representation of "Home, home again, I like to be here when I can" refers to yourself older in lfe and just wish to rest after a toiling life. For the final verse its represents your funeral the church bell, faithful to their knees, and speak the softly spoken magic spell. Obviously refers to your relgious rituals each hold dear to attain atonement. Great reaction sir, keep up with FLOYD, you will get ALOT of views and listen to revolutionary music that was ahead of their time, and beats almost everything on radio today. I do agree if you listen to FLOYD please start at the beginning of an album and continue through the end, you WILL NOT be disapointed.

[@viperianace9157]

This is my favourite reaction video so far. Good on the fly lyrical interpretation. Pointed out the singers who I had never noticed. Also it is cool seeing such an intense reaction to something I have heard many times.

[@cabinsnook]

From the greatest album of all time, imo. A masterpiece. I first heard this album at age 22 and will never tire of it. That was about 50 years ago. Keep it up!

[@DavidGigg]

This is not a single song in the form you are probably familiar with, it is from The Dark Side of the Moon album so all the songs fade into one another. In 1973 no-one would have just played this song, they would have played the album.

[@scozz6139]

It's wonderful to see young people like you enjoying some of the music I grew up listening to. I'd love to see you react to some more of Pink Floyds music, I say music instead of song because what they create is much more than a song, it's a journey for each and every composition. I've been a hardcore Pink Floyd since 1971, (I was 15 at the time), and I saw them perform twice back in the 1980s. They are the GOAT of Progressive Rock! One of the shows that I attended was The Wall, an incredible, phenomenal performance, a show of such magnitude it's difficult to describe. If you're interested, I suggest you do a search of The Wall performances, to get an understanding of the immenseness of these shows. I would like to request you react to Pink Floyds "Comfortably Numb" Live from the Pulse Concert from 1994. Big event, Big long inspiring solo, Big incredible light show, and one the greatest endings of a single song EVER!

[@richmorales9958]

I LOVE how you young guys get so awed by these lyrics, i get teary eyed every time cause it makes so much damage sense.

[@1001bno]

Great reaction to a first ever listen to P. F..... hope you enjoy the ride 'cause you've only scratched the surface 😉

[@jimangela4589]

This is a common theme for Roger Waters (the bass player and lyricist). Many, many songs explore the dichotomy of hiding from the daily struggles and stress of life or meeting those hurdles head on. The whole album of The Wall explores that theme. It also appears as a main theme in this album, Dark Side Of The Moon, and also on the albums, Wish You Were Here, and Animals.

[@sheikhyaboooty]

This song got my attention when I was 12 and the LP had just been released. Nearly 60 now and it means more to me every time I hear it. On the upside I was 16 when punk started. A good time to be a teen.

[@michaelsuder3956]

To be honest, Pink Floyd was considered your “mainstream” band with punk music ideals. They never sold out, made songs cutting on record labels and never really wanted the limelight. In fact, Syd Viscious got his name derived by Syd Barrett, a member of Pink Floyd

[@DazzleMonroe]

Just for clarity, Sid Vicious was named by Johnny Rotten, after Sid was bitten by his pet hamster, who was named Sid, after Syd Barrett

[@tedblankman6991]

Pink Floyd, isn't just another band, they are an experience, they take you on a trip into yourself, your mind. I've been listing to the sense to '60s and still love them their songs never get old. enjoy

[@alanpeterson4939]

If you listen to the Dark Side album, listen to it in order and try to listen to several songs at a time. They each flow into the next song. The only real stand-alone song is Money. As you listen to it, you might notice there is not a single repeated chorus on the whole album. These guys did not do standard verse-chorus-verse-chorus songs.

[@helmutvogel901]

Yeah, and if you listen, Gilmour did the same thing on his riffs between lyrics on most albums. Especially Dark Side.

[@douglaswayne3149]

The softly spoken magic spell are the prayers said in church at your funeral.

[@pcallas66]

Dark Side of the Moon is the most iconic album in the rock era in my opinion. It was recorded back in 1973 and they didn't have the tools that they have now in the recording studio. They had incredible engineers put this album together and used highly sophisticated multitracking tape machines to make this album. The sound quality on things back then sounds more detailed to me. Great reaction!!!

[@glennbrock6560]

Great reaction, welcome..lol. I saw you get Floyded. Song Suggestions: Speak To Me/Breathe- (which is the song that time had a reprise near the end.) Us And Them Dogs Sheep

[@TwistedSither]

Wow. I've been listening to Pink Floyd for almost as long as you've been alive. Take it from me, if you really want to explore their music, and get the most out of it, you should listen to each album in its entirety. The exploration of their music is an adventure unlike any other.

[@philshorten3221]

Great reaction but what you've just heard is only one track from Dark Side of the Moon (charted best part of 20years over 45,000,000 copies.... might be a reason for that) But it is a concept album, each track flows into the next so you can pick tracks but you'll miss the overall thread. For a good intro, I would strongly recommend PF 1972 Echoes - Live at Pompeii where the guys play in an empty Roman Amphitheater with no audience apart from maybe a bunch of ghosts. Followed by PF 1992 Comfortably Numb live at the Pulse Concert where you see a real stage performance that will knock your socks off! If you go down the Floyd rabbit hole... buckle-up dorethy kansas is about to go bye bye!!!

[@buzzwerd8093]

There is a version on KZbin from a year before Dark Side was released, the first public performance in a concert at the Rainbow Theater Feb 1972. It's way more RAW ART than the studio-polished gem they published. I like the older stuff, Wish You Were Here is last of theirs that I like so much, I saw them in Philadelphia.

[@helmutvogel901]

Please mention the UNCUT version of Comfortably Numb at Pulse. The version everybody is watching (16M views) is 9:52, and the UNCUT version is 10:59 with 216k views and that extra minute is all guitar solo in finale!! Or did you not know?

[@alanpeterson4939]

I always assumed the tolling bell was for a funeral. (That assumption covers almost fifty years of listening to these guys. So, “one day closer to death” has added meaning, now that I’m an old fart).

[@gbsailing9436]

The idea of the ‘tolling’ bell (the way it has the recurring sound) was first introduced, i believe, on the album ‘MEDDLE’, in the song ECHOES - with the recurring “PING” of the initial piano note. Since then the recurring ‘bell’ sound has been reprised a number of times in their songs - especially within an acoustic guitar setting in some songs on one of the bass notes. Listen for it as you explore further.

[@65alef]

Welcome into the rabbit hole...

[@enricviguer9560]

[@direnova6284]

The last bit is a reprise of the second song on the album "Breathe" that leads into "The Great Gig in the Sky" a song about death, it depicts the stages of grief from loss to sad acceptance. I believe the Iron bell part from breathe reprise is a funeral that follows the intent of the lyrics to "Time".

[@DavidTateVA]

There's a short list of all-time great rock albums. Tommy, Sergeant Pepper, Dreamboat Annie, ... Dark Side of the Moon (and Wish You Were Here) are comfortable in that company. The whole album is one story -- you have to experience it as a whole. The arc from birth to death, innocence to resignation... timeless (as it were). This song segues into the next, which makes sense of those final lyrics...

Our host's first time really listening to Pink Floyd, and first time hearing this song, all with worthy attention. He got it right off the bat. PF's music may be mainstream in popularity, but not in it's intentional content and delivery. Just wait until he builds up to their next two albums. He will definitely catch on to the hard messages of songs like Welcome to the Machine "What did you dream? It's alright, we told you what to dream." Their Animals album (1977) is far removed from anything mainstream, and will prove to be an absolute in depth ass-kicker. Cheers.

Most definitely a Dirty 10!!!!!!!!!! Bro, it's good you've *finally* been exposed to Pink Floyd. _The Dark Side of the Moon_ is one of the top-selling albums ever! And you really need to experience it in its entirety. That said, here I go recommending a video from a different artist. This was just posted a few hours ago. She learned this song and recorded it in one afternoon! Let me at least try to make a relevant connection here (even though it won't get very close to Kevin Bacon lol - pop culture reference). Okay, when asked who her main influences are on guitar, she cites David Gilmour as one of the main ones. And she grew up with her parents listening to Pink Floyd. There. That is the relevance I can give to the following suggestion for a reaction. This young artist's name is Daniela Villarreal, and in the video linked below, she covers a Foo Fighters song. In fact, I believe you did a reaction to her and her band covering a different Foo Fighters song. Here she channels Dave Grohl in an acoustic cover of "Walk". kzbin.info/www/bejne/mZyxf4l7btiAr5I

The song reflects the different phases of life. Wasting the time when you're young, then suddenly being in the hectic middle life (chasing the sun), and then it slows down, coming home old and tired, and hearing the foreboding of the inevitable end, the church bells and prayers...

The last section is a reprise for 'Breathe', originally called 'Breathe (reprise)' on the original vinyl. 'The tolling of the iron bell' is a reference to death, the death toll of churches for one of their own who died. But the magic spell acknowledges the possibility of resurrection? or does it? How about some 'The Mob', with VJ looming, how about 'No doves fly here'?

When you thought the song ended (lyrics "... thought I'd something more to say") it did actually end. The bit afterwards was the final verse of a previous song "Breathe". They split it for artistic reasons.

I've always thought the song was about our whole life. Before the alarms is conception and growthin the womb, the alarms is birth, the intro is childhood (notice how we're anxious for it to finish) the start of lyrics are our 20s into our 30s, guitar solo is our 30s to 50s, reprise is our retirement and waning years, iron bell is our death and magic spells is our eulogy. That's my take anyway. First heard this in Germany in 78, didn't truly get the gist then, one of my faves now. Enjoyed watching you get it.

Another juicy intro is "Foreplay/Longtime" by the band Boston - enjoy : )

Because I'm getting 10 million comments on this I will let you know now that I pause to throw off the copywrite bots KZbin has implemented to give people strikes

[@stevenronald2484]

How many times do you need to pause to avoid copywrite ?

[@Dirty10]

@@stevenronald2484 I've learned that if they're gonna copywrite, they're gonna copywrite. Doesn't matter how often I try to fight it

Oh, and Gilmour is a F'ing genius on guitar. And yes, the back ground singers are awesome.

The Dark Side of the Moon album has sold about 40 million copies and holds an unassailable record for most weeks on the Billboard 200 albums chart with 889 (last time I checked LOL). It entered the chart in March 1973 when the album was issued, dropped out in 1974, but then returned from time to time, including an 11-year run from 1977-1988 when it didn't leave. I recommend you play the album start to finish.

Smoke one. Put the ALBUM on, put your headphones on, lay back in your recliner and listen.
