[@MetalMann-de3xi]

Every time that you listen to this album, you'll understand it more and more. Ten years from now, it will mean more and be different. Twenty years after that, once again, you'll understand it even more. It will hit harder as you look back at your life experiences. Not only do you understand the words, but you feel the music in a different way as well. The instrumentals will have words, and you can understand what the instruments are saying without hearing them.

[@starrroberts-n9h]

The whole album is the story of life, from birth to death. Each song has it's point. Great Gig in the Sky, the vocalist was told to tell the 5 stages of grief without any words, denial, anger, bargaining, depression acceptance. Best to just go with the flow and listen to the whole album straight through (after smoking a joint).

i used to be a hater but only because I liked Wish You Were Here better, and I was in my elitist highschooler phase where I would be needlessly hyperbolic about the smallest things. I can only assume most other people that "dislike" this album are in the same boat, and I would implore them to grow up lmao

I bought this when it first came out and must have listened to it 200 times, but it still seems fresh, and the lyrics take on greater meaning with the passing years (it's what you bring to it). With a spliff & a scotch or just a nice cup of tea, it works magic every time. They had no electronic synths, no auto-tune, just 4 track & 16 track tape recorders and analogue synths, but the production quality is amazing.

You also need to see Pink Floyd live to understand the impact of being there. Some of the best bands in the world are British and iconic. I was privileged to see many of them, Pink Floyd, King Crimson, Led Zepplin, Queen, David Bowie and so many more. Good times. Glad you are discovering these classics, they will never be repeated. 👍🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🇬🇧

Excellent review! This whole album is about falling into madness. R.I.P. Syd Barrett and Richard Wright.

[@rk12395]

None of this is random, it’s all intentional! Close your eyes and listen to this with no breaks or distractions, it all flows and is part of the same concept. So amazing!

[@jonhenke1504]

Check out some songs from Pink Floyd's 1994 Pulse concert!! When you see the audience nobody will be moving!! Pink Floyd music practically hypnotizes you into just listening and sitting still and hearing their message of each song because every song has unbelievably deep meaning and beautiful music! Every song will surprise you and be different from the previous song but still have the same undertone and will have you hypnotized practically!

[@Rice_BaL]

the song brain damage sounds like the singer is going crazy because it’s actually about their former lead singer Syd Barrett who had to be dropped from the band in 1968 because he developed schizophrenia and/or psychosis that was likely caused by his drug use, they made a bunch of songs about him and their album Wish You Were Here is basically about him

[@xlerb_again_to_music7908]

Around 1970 on, Pink Floyd dropped a string of S-tier albums: *Meddle, Dark Side, Animals, Wish You Were Here* and *The Wall* . All hit - wonderfully! :) PS Dark Side is a loop. The end of Side 2 is the start of Side 1... PPS this is prog rock. It didn't die out, but mutated into softer and heavier variants. Softer: *X* by Spock's Beard, Heavier: *Deadwing* by Porcupine Tree. You're welcome.

[@FirstHumanOfficialChannel2024]

I am an old head, turned 60 this year been a PF fan since 74 when I was 10 and heard this album. Yours is by far one of my favorite reactions to TDSOTM. Keep it up....David Gilmour (guitar) is a wizard....One of a handful of Bands that can make thier music speak to your soul.

[@onurji4311]

Yo man, I'm probably around your age and discovered Pink Floyd 2 years ago. Yeah, Pink Floyd is "not many words" sounds like "what the fuck" this is their kind of rock, psychedelic rock. Weird constellations of instruments, ups, and downs. Pink floyd is one of a kind and you really have to enjoy their music, otherwise it will sound like an earache . In my opinion, it is the well-known album, by its cover but not the best album, musically. All PF albums are concept albums so you should listen from first to last song, like you did with this one. I would recommend you the album "wish you were here" 5 songs, intro and outro songs are "hugging" the 3 songs in between. Beautiful album. And a beautiful reaction from you, bro. Really enjoyed your honesty and that you took your time. Peace

[@WarlockCat1115]

You've really been on the grind man. Respect

[@scozz6139]

Welcome to Pink Floyd! Pink Floyds 1973 "Dark Side Of The Moon" album is quite possibly the greatest Rock album of all time. It has sold over 55 million copies, and counting. Many Rock critics agree it IS THEE GOAT! Pink Floyd was formed in London in 1964, they are/were, a Blues based band, just like virtually every Rock & Roll band to come out of England in the 1960s. Affectionally known as The British Invasion. Pink Floyd took their band name from two old time American Blues guitarists from the mid 1900s, they were,..... PINK Anderson, (1900-1974),... and,... FLOYD Council, (1911-1976). Btw, Never,.. Ever,.. EVER,.. pause or talk over a David Gilmour solo,..., (Pink Floyds lead singer and guitarist), It's almost sacrilegious,... lol! Less pausing is better when listening to Floyd.

Old songs hit hard because they were played by very good musicians,who could literally play and write music..not a loop from a program but complex music patterns coming from their head and soul..Enjoy more old songs if you want real music that does things in your brain and really develops it..

[@ericsandi6619]

Subbed, buddy. I felt the same way when I heard this for the first time, too (oh, and every time since even though I've heard it hundreds of times). Pink Floyd has a large catalog, so you're in for a ride. Next album was Wish You Were Here 1975. Brilliant!

Reno, when you said they aren't normal I would agree with you. I first heard this album when it was released in the 70s. I thought then and still think that this isn't "music" in the traditional sense. I've now come to understand that Pink Floyd was identified by a 6th density being who gave them the music and lyrics. As to why, I can only think its purpose is to play a part in the transitioning of our world from 3rd to 4th density. (I'd place another song, more traditional, in this realm also: Stairway To Heaven) Peace brother.

[@halfalligator6518]

Love how this is prog rock, but through the lens of soul, funk and jazz. Some of it gives me Issac Hayes or even Marvin Gaye vibes. Shame a lot of PF fans don't expand into those genres even after getting glimpses of it here.

[@brentmoore133]

In this album, each song represents a different stage of life. Speak to me, it's all the sounds you hear while in the womb. Life going on outside which are bits and pieces of all the songs on this album. Breathe (in the Air) this song is about the 1st breaths you take when you're born and your toddler years. On the Run is about your teen years, after school when all you have time to do is work and you're always on the run. Time is when you start to realize that you're not going to live forever and what are you going to do with your life. Great Gig in the Sky. This one is about experiencing the death of a loved one, likely a parent. Money is about your biggest earning years and your dash to make a stash. Us and Them is the clashing of generations between the young and the old. Any Color You Like is your retirement years, you're done working and you've saved enough money to have it any color you like, whatever that may be. Brain Damage. You're old now and starting to get dementia, your brain is damaged and you're not the same person you used to be. You're losing yourself. Eclipse. This is it. Your own life is coming to an end. Everything you've ever seen, felt, or heard is soon to be gone forever, what's on the other side? Darkness or a new heartbeat, and that's what the album begins and ends with, a heartbeat.

[@subpotentmage8048]

Well... That is classic rock for you. And rock music is Freedom!

[@jackiegiannino6835]

This album is 51 years old. The first intro starts with a heartbeat, followed by a build up to birth( the screaming) . “Breath” is the first breath of life. “ on the run” is about how busy life is. The sounds at the time were state of the art. No computers to makes these sounds. A lot of splicing and taping. Leading into “ time” . The words in this song get more profound the older you become. IMO one of the best songs ever made. This song is about how fast life goes, and how you need to start living in the moment.This is followed by “ the great gig in the sky” about the different stages of death. Not a word is sung just a beautiful voice !! Welcome to the machine known as Pink Floyd. Enjoy the ride! Smoke a joint and enjoy the journey !✌🏻❤️

[@rocketsredglare1149]

Interesting to see you experience this through Spotify, which is a 'song based service'. This album is effectively a single piece of music and not just 'a collection of songs'. They are meant to be listened to in order and in one sitting. The experience is the whole album. It's also a experience designed to be experienced on THC or hallucinogens.

"Live for today, gone tomorrow" reminds me of Johnny Somali and his landing in jail in South Korea, like hitting a brick wall.

The first side of the album Speak to me to great gig in the sky covers life, birth to death. Beginning with your first breath, you aready have begun your journey to death. Starting with money ( Materialism) , Us and them ( have and have nots, class and race struggles) , any color you like is an instrumental, Brain damage ( life drives some people crazy) , Eclipse has lyrics the cover all aspects of life. Well, that's my interpretation of 50 years, and probably 500 times I've listened to this album. In closing, this album stayed on the billboard top 200 for over 20 years with many years at or near the top.

I loved your reaction to this😊This is one of THE most well crafted, put together and designed albums of all time. Definitely in my top 5 along with abbey Road, (I know, sgt peppers lonely heart club is more regarded as such but I personally prefer abbey Road), and I’m undecided on the other 3! DSOTM is just an amazing feet of musicianship, artistic creativity, beyond its time and still sounds as fresh as ever today. It’s thought provoking, it’s got groove, experimentalism, classical elements, story telling, just everything all perfectly put together and with that gorgeous harmony in eclipse bringing it all to such a satisfying close. An unforgettable trip of a lifetime that you have at a push of a button or a tap of a screen🩷🎶 how lucky are we eh?! It’s no surprise this album stayed on the billboard charts for 14 YEARS!! The longest time any album has remained there to this day. Oh and btw, re great gig in the sky, it’s about the stages of acceptance of death. So resistance then acceptance, then finally peace. And no, like he says, you shouldn’t fear death, what’s the point? It’s going to happen at some point and I like to think of it as just closing one door and opening another.. Sorry another edit I can’t help myself😅yess!!! Isn’t ‘money’ just the coolest shit ever, one of my favourite all time tracks🎉

Hi, dude. Imagine yourself, at 12 or 13 years old, listening to this stuff... And spending your puberty, adolescence and youth, like us (those of us who are already grey or have lost our hair) accompanied by these monsters: Yes, Emerson Lake & Palmer, Genesis, Jethro Tull, King Krimson, Laurie Anderson, Gentle Giant, Premiata Forneria Marconi, Sui Generis, Espíritu, Aquelarre, Led Zeppelin, Van der Graaf Generator, Spinetta, Deep Purple and hundreds more... We old people grew up with the bar set too high, maybe that's why it's hard for us today to find something that satisfies us, gives us the fullness and pleasure of that music, that has that complexity, that depth, that experimentalism and creativity. I know that there are quality bands today, but you have to look for them with a magnifying glass, the market is very stingy, but in those years it was a little more generous with quality art (just a little). Luckily there is KZbin, luckily for you that you can find out what your parents and grandparents listened to, and luckily for us that we can investigate what is being made today and what the record companies and radio stations don't offer us. I'm glad that this has excited you and I invite you to browse through some of that small sample that I mentioned, KZbin has the "Related" section, and that will take you to a prehistoric universe (hahaha) but very substantial.

Pink Floyd - the G.O.A.T You should listen to their other albums, particularly “Wish You Were Here.” They are a fantastic continuation of the trip they took you on to the Dark Side of the Moon.

You missed the point of the Great Gig in the Sky as well as Speak to Me. The first track is literally birth, you are born into a world and your infancy is essentially a collection of things you cannot possibly understand. The Great Gig in the Sky is quite literally a soul going through the stages of grief upon dying: Denial, anger, bargaining, depression, and acceptance.
