[@ZacCostilla]

You have a great analysis of this song, one of my all-time favorites, BTW. One of the understated things that makes “Time” such an amazing song is the fact that they employ moments of silence so well. Whether it’s the way each note is stoa to in the introduction, to each line in the stanza ending with a pause to process the words before the next line is delivered, and also in the oohs and ahhs of the background choir, to the rests between chords for the guitar and electric piano, it all gives a great sense of space. And this makes the guitar solo even more beautifully frantic as it goes non-stop, as if crying or screaming at the thought that the starting gun was missed and it will take more effort to catch up than it would have to start “on time”.

[@Hello_I_am_Jeff]

This album has to be appreciated in its entirety to really get the full effect. It has a very specific sonic composition that arcs in its arrangement. There’s a reason it is considered one of the greatest albums of all time. This song hits so much harder as I get closer to 50.

[@karenglenn6707]

I first heard this in Australia in 1975 when I was 15. I am now 63, and the fact that they had so much insight when they were young is just amazing! As I’ve gotten older, this is so much more relevant to me than it was when I was 15. Every line is so true!

[@joshuawiedenbeck6944]

This song is brilliant because they composed the music to directly reflect the lyrics. The beginning is shocking (birth), the intro takes forever (childhood), the middle is full of turmoil and chaos (20's-30's), and the end slows down and is very simple (old age). The ending verse about iron bells invokes images of a traditional stone church, probably a funeral.

[@KevinSchmitt77]

I agree with the funeral idea as the song leads in to "Great Gig In the Sky", a song about the dying process. It's all a big story about life; from the opening heartbeats to the closing ones.

[@samswords9993]

It also references John Donne's Meditation about "for whom the bell tolls."

[@Rorschach_Tattoo]

"Calls the faithful to their knees To hear the softly spoken magic spells" Its clearly about people praying for you while a priest is speaking the word of god during your funeral At least that's my interpretation

[@telynns8490]

@@KevinSchmitt77 My mother passed away years ago from a long illness. Even though she kept most of it from us kids, always had a good attitude around us, I know she went through all the stages just like in Great Gig In the Sky. In the end she chose not to get further treatment and let go. The beauty of the ending of that song hits me so hard.

[@thegiddywitch]

It's interesting how my understanding of this song has evolved as I've aged. Young me always wondered why he sang the line about the song being over so long before the song actually ended. Now I think maybe it's because we start to feel sort of irrelevant years before we actually die. Though we may live another 10 or 20 years, any real chance we might have had to accomplish our dreams is already gone. So our song is over for all practical purposes long before the music actually stops.

Incredibly clever review! It's unreal how accurately you described this song on first listen! Even with the ending - the song Time flows seamlessly into the next song The Great Gig in the Sky, which is another real treat - a must hear. But really, every person on the planet should hear the whole of this phenomenal work, which celebrated its 50th anniversary this March. The Dark Side of the Moon is a musical gem and I think it should be required school reading. The lyrics are so incredibly clever and still relevant and are accompanied by fantastically crafted music and sound effects. I've listened to this album a thousand times and I still can't get enough of it, and I still find little things in it that surprise me. Take the time to listen to the whole thing, all at once and without a break. Then you will see what a masterpiece it is. And Pink Floyd is guaranteed to enchant you. Excuse my English, I'm from the Czech Republic and I'm assisted by an automatic translator.

One day, when I was around 16, my dad sat me down and made me listen to this song. It really changed my whole perspective on things. My father is a teacher, and whenever he saw somebody with potential but no motivation, he would show them this song. One of these students eventually became an incredibly successful businessman. And years later, when my father visited his office, he showed him the lyrics that he had pinned on the board in front of his desk. This is more than a song. It speaks to the universal human experience like very few other songs do.

This album alone has spent a total of almost 1000 weeks on the Billboard Album Chart. That's almost 20 years ! Unsurprisingly, it holds the record for most weeks on the chart... by a mile! They are bona fide greats and their music is just as popular today, as when their music was first released. They still outsell 99.9% of contemporary artists. :)

I love the last line in the main section of the song. “The time has come, the song is over. Thought I’d something more to say.” on the surface, he’s talking about the song literally being over, but the song is also a metaphor for his life. He’s run out of time, and realized that all of the grand plans he had, and meaning he expected his life would have when he was younger, have not come to fruition.

Dude, you nailed this (assuming this was a first reaction and you hadn’t done any pre-research). I’ve been listening to Floyd since I was 12, so that’s like 37 years now. It changed my life. I listened to a lot of rap too, still listen to music from every genre. Some messages come through different and I’m always open. But to this day, I have heard no other music that just gets down into the raw inner workings of me like Pink Floyd. I suggest you listen to their three long songs on Animals. You will be blown away. Another also- the song that comes after this basically is going through the stages of accepting your death. It is not instrumental, yet there are no words. You will understand when you listen.

[@rainerzufall42]

Pink Floyd always take their time with their productions. Back then, it wasn't just about making a quick buck with a song, it was about art.

[@pommie5093]

EXACTLY. Well said.

[@damnyankeega]

True. There are some bands that still have that ethos. MGMT comes to mind.

[@twennysebben]

Most songs made these days could start and finish in the time it takes for the vocals to kick in.

[@riczen6652]

Amen to that.

[@randyrodriguez1445]

Don’t compare generations with terms like ‘back then’. Every generations brings it. Back then we had Air Supply Anne Murray England Dan and dozens of forgettable music too. Talent is non generational.

[@christophernichols1379]

Thoughtful analysis. Damn good reaction.

[@jegkegofrhum9357]

see at BLACK METAL TEENS HEARING PINK FLOYD

[@shanesturgill75]

All of David Gilmours guitar solos are beautiful. My favorite guitarist of all time. Pink Floyd is such an amazing band. Thanks for this one!

[@1966wilky]

Great analysis of the lyrics! I like that you stop it so frequently to try and understand the meaning of these great lyrics! So many other channels get the song message wrong.

[@Traveler13]

love your reaction to a band i grew up with in the 70s, hope to see some more like this

[@jonsey156]

Possibly the very best analysis of this masterpiece I have seen/heard in a reaction - You're Good Dude !!

[@helenajrgensen3157]

Lovely. Pink Floyd is not just music. It is an experience. It can be difficult to hear a single track as their albums are made so that the songs play into each other. Almost like watching a movie. But you made a good reaction and can safely take more Pink Floyd into your channel. I will be here for it.❤😊👍 Comfortably Numb - Great gig in the sky - Is there anybody out there... and much, much more are all great tracks

[@JuninToiro]

"The softly spoken magic spells (of immortality)." You were spot on bro.

[@stephenbarr773]

The 70's produced some of the best music that is felt on a visceral level.

[@trumpsta4759]

I have listened to many reactions to this great song - your reaction has been the best explanation of the lyrics by far. Thank you and now subscribed.

[@dantallman5345]

The extended intro is kind of a metaphor of the whole song imo. After the alarm clocks, there is the ticking front and center and underneath that the heartbeat. Then you have the ominous power chords; initially there is very little happening within the intervals between the power chords, but the intervals get busier and busier as the song progresses.

[@Angelfeather100]

Yes, you are absolutely right in every aspect. Best reaction and best analysis of all! Sincerely impressed!

[@anahatatutu]

Time is woven into the fabric of ... the universe - Well, I meant the album. DSOTM is a concept album that builds powerfully adding depth beyond what you hear in a single track. There is no pause and the transitions and timing are brilliant. Quick and astute assessment.

[@markuskolbjrnsen8767]

The best reaction to this song. Such an astute analysis of the symbolism of the lyrics! Top tier, you got a new viewer in me

[@dakotahrobinson8209]

This album stayed in the billboard charts for 736 WEEKS!!!! Also Roger Waters went into an antique shop and recorded all those clocks going off in real time, no studio magic there.

[@martinhotze4917]

According to some docus it was said that Alan Parsons had the clocks ‚on file‘ already

[@hz5844]

Great reaction dude, keep it up.

[@isabellarocks1000]

This is my favorite song by them because of all the unique instumental elements but all their albums from start to finish flows together like one large song. They are truely a phenomenal band.

[@sourisvoleur4854]

Best reaction to this song I have ever seen/heard. You've got a sharp eye (ear) and think deeply about things. That's a rare combination. Bravo, bravo, bravo.

[@vincenthewlett4329]

I bought this album when it was released i am 65 next month and i still play the original album once a week , it is simply stunning and way way ahead of its " time " , and imo it really is the best album of all " Time "......

[@DJWESG1]

I'm not as old as yourself, but I too owned the original lp, it came with a poster inside the cover, someone stole that poster from me 😅, which I was angry about at the time*, but since realised they needed it more than I.

[@MrWishud]

Nice job man. I skipped school to go into town and buy this album on the day of release. I'm 67 now and it still blows me away. Welcome to the world with Pink Floyd in it. It's a better place. All the best from Wales dude. Have fun.

[@PauloSmaniotto]

Loved it! I'd suggest you to hear other songs of them - Fearless - The great gig in the sky - Summer 68 - Pigs (three different ones)

[@Frank-pe9pk]

One of the best albums ever…ever! I was fortunate to have seen this tour in the mid seventies! Still one of my all time favorite bands!!😎

[@dailyreader9263]

Im 53 now and always wish id have listened and understood the lyrics instead of just hearing the music or getting stoned. 😢

[@Zinetha]

Same. But I'm 31, a foreigner and never done drugs.
