[@sooankim9247]

You really owe it to yourself to listen to the original studio track. It was performed by a studio singer by the name of Clare Torey. She was asked to vocalize without using any words, to interpret transitioning from life to death. If memory serves me correctly, she did 3 takes and they edited the final version. It is breathtaking! #DaRealADogg

Yes, and higher pitch.

Dark Side of the Moon is an absolute masterpiece. Greatest album ever recorded - And this coming from someone who loves Pink Floyd - but objectively not my #1 favorite band all time - maybe 5th favorite - but I confidently say this is the greatest album ever cover to cover. You owe it to yourself to listen to it - headphones - no distractions - dim room and just let the music take you where you go - your reaction to this video shows you are the type of person that can be truly moved by phenomenal music; and that's what this album is.

I bought Dark Side Of The Moon in the spring of 73', I was already a fan but I had NO idea what that album was going to do to me. I cried the first time I heard Clare Torey's voice, and I still get goosebumps some 50 years later. You HAVE to listen to the studio cut, it is beyond brilliant and to this day one of the most gut-wrenching vocal performances by anyone in any genre.

[@cherinoelke]

@Wesley Peterson Man was that a great time to be alive or what!?! Alan Parsons production on that album was friggin second to none in my humble opinion. I was able to pass one of my copies down to my son, I bought 2 because I thought for sure I’d wear one out 😂to bad I didn’t save the poster, that would’ve been kick ass to still have ☮️

[@squigtonianmayhem4602]

You are correct, sir! Bein a Deadhead, I normally recommend live versions of almost any tune by any band. This is one of the exceptions. The studio version was born of something that cannot be recreated.

[@lawrencejelsma8118]

Yes! This is the church choir version. The Clare Torry (Torre?) version of the original album after multiple takes was the 1960's style "acid rock" soothing and calming one's metaphysical mind into peace and tranquility as some of the other songs on Pink Floyd albums do. I think with Allen Parcen's project input of Clare Torry into Pink Floyd inspired their later entire space or future dreamy album "I Robot!" Played and orchestral Pink Floyd into Allan Parson's "I Robot" is more away from Pink Floyd's "heavy in heavy metal's" other music style orchestrated in their 1977 Animals and 1979 The Wall albums that pleasantly but with hard rock sounds satisfy a musical experience over the entire time of playing the albums.

[@kennascales]

Absolutely

[@nataliegrobbelaar3684]

Love your reaction! There is NOTHING done by Pink Floyd that sucks. Everything they do is beyond awesome xx Favourite group ever.

[@CaptainNemo1701]

Sit yourself down in a dimly lit room, incense optional, pop on Dark Side of the Moon (headphones are a must) and listen to the whole album in one go because its really just one track, everything melts together in sonic perfection. Its widely regarded as a masterpiece and arguably the greatest rock album recorded to date. It spent over 13 years sitting in the US album charts and is one of the biggest selling albums of all time. So treat yourself for about 45 minutes:). Your ears will love you for the rest of your life.

[@Dodger2879]

Nemo1701, I did just that in 1973. I did however substitute incense for some decent hash. All was well till my roommate's cat jumped on my lap. I have been a fan of epic proportions ever since......just not of cats! 68 and still playing Pink Floyd on a daily basis. They came a long way since, "See Emily Play".

In the 70’s, there was a solarium in Cincinnati that had a show called laser works (I think it was called). We laid back in our chairs, stoned, and watched a laser show to the whole dark side of the moon album. Man I’m glad I grew up in the 70’s……

[@tonydelapa1911]

As others have said (more or less): as much as you like this, the original from the Dark Side of the Moon album, will freakin’ blow you away. I’m not criticizing you for choosing this version - it was very good - I’m just saying when you download this for your own collection, add it to your playlist, or what ever - you want the original studio version. Imagine, it took two great female vocalists, who probably rehearsed for weeks,topull off what Claire Torry pulled off, with no advance preparation, in TWO takes. They asked her to do a third and she told them she had given them her best, and man was she right. After they told her to make her voice sound like an instrument, she left later to silence, thinking she did not get ‘the job’ of appearing on the album. She later learned they were too stunned to speak. Ms Torry did not know her vocal made it onto the album until the album was in stores. Thank you so much for tackling this tune. I really enjoyed your entire reaction! Sooner or later you;re going to want to listen to the entire album, in order, with lyrics in hand. After that you may be so stunned you will need a couple weeks off :)

And Pink Floyd wasn't going to give her any credit, or royalties. Jerks.

[@125AXer]

Without reading all 825 comments, because.... not my reaction video: The story behind the original recording is one of absolute wonder and amazement at what can be accomplished with talent and timing. The singer came into the studio on a contract gig, with only a general concept of what kind of vocal contribution was needed. After a brief conversation with band members and studio sound check, Clare Torrey launched into the stunningly emotional and evocative inspiration for what is done in this version by not one, but THREE singers. they were great, (and I went to a Pulse tour concert) but still, any attempt will fall short of the original. I read that the band members were absolutely dumbstruck by what they had just recorded in the studio. Clare was of course paid for her SINGLE TAKE. She left the studio, wondering if she would get a call-back for revisions, corrections, editing. But no... Her fantastic interpretation and rendition was placed on the Dark Side Of The Moon album, in it's entirety, and just as she had expressed it. A miracle, a classic, a masterpiece in translation of psyche to human voice. "Extraordinary" doesn't say enough.

[@wildoutdoorsandmore]

And to think that Clare Torrey did the original vocals 50 years ago was as much mind boggling then as it is today. I heard somewhere she was paid a mere $75 for her work and years later attempted to sue the band for the unexpected success of this song, and was sadly unsuccessful in her law suit.

[@petercolsell7660]

They need the 3 singers because of the toll it has upon the singer on top of the rest of the concert. Clare said as much in her interviews.

[@sharilynbratton6476]

This song is about this woman facing death, the stages she goes through in facing the end before she accepts and becomes peaceful, or so I have been told. The whole album is an epic journey! The woman who sang on the studio track version is a different woman and she will really blow you away!

[@TheFalconerNZ]

Yeah l agree, l wondered if it was the same woman but she didn't do the piece the justice it deserves. The original blows this away by light years.

[@JannieH]

Yep, woman singing here looks like Sam Brown. (Back-up singer on the pulse tour). Studio version is sung by Clair Torry. Sam Brown is however an excellent singer as it is. kzbin.info/www/bejne/eoiuqKGcd9mtjsk

[@dr.thrashfinger4915]

I'm not arguing with anyone about anything but I saw an interview with Claire years ago and this solo was just a call in gig for her to make some money. She showed up, Roger and David gave her some rough parameters, played her the demo and told her to run with it. She did it in one take but the boys wanted her to do another take which she did but they ended up using the original anyway. No facing death or any of that other stuff from either her or the band. I think that's probably just some bullshit posted by someone who wants to sound important. Regardless, an OUTSTANDING performance nonetheless! One take, no autotune, no rehearsing ad nauseum, etc, etc.... Absolute pro!

[@scottbc31h22]

@@dr.thrashfinger4915 Clare Torey actually did three takes. The first was rejected because she used words, which the band did not want. Clare cut off the third take mid song, saying she thought they had what they needed. She did not know anything about The Dark Side Of The Moon recording sessions. I don't think she even knew who Pink Floyd even was.

[@lucianaciolfi]

The singer of the original version is called Clare Torry and she was contacted to record the song without using words but only by vocalizing. In an interview Clare stated that not even Pink Floyd had any idea how she was supposed to sing, so she decided to improvise in her own way. In 2004, Torry sued both Pink Floyd and EMI for missing royalties owed to the album The Dark Side of the Moon, claiming he also contributed artistically to the song The Great Gig in the Sky (originally attributed only to Richard Wright). In early 2005, the British High Court of Justice recognized the singer's reasons as valid and declared her co-owner of the song's copyright. All records released after 2005 therefore regularly report Torry/Wright as the songwriters. Clare is also very proud that she sang the whole song on her own, while in subsequent performances she was sung by three different singers. PS Dear Pink Floyd I love you madly, but Clare is right. ;)

Pink Floyd is ABSOLUTELY worth listening to pretty much everything they’ve made. I do still recommend listening to the original version of this song as well, it’s just as impactful and so deep! It goes with the theme of that album so well which is essentially about different stages of life. This song was said to be about someone fighting to let go and cross to the other side and then accepting that it was their time. So incredible and art at its finest is what Pink Floyd is. The fact they can draw out so much thought and emotion at the same time is so beautiful.

Reminding us all where we came from, and shall return one fine day .. Hugely powerful, and loving tones that resonate with each one of us individually, completely different from each other but yet still connected.. It was definitely from the heavens.. To sit and write the music had to be a magical experience in itself.. Trial and error in this masterful creation of feelings into music, and then! returned back from music, into a feeling again..

Check out some of the rest songs on 'Pulse", keep atlking ( intro by Stephen Hawkings), High Hopes, Hey you, Money, us and them. actually the whole concert.

A wonderful example of how you can put emotion into vocals and music without ever saying a word. It's not often that backup and session singers get a chance to shine like this.

[@happilyeggs4627]

The studio track was performed by Clair Torrey. The singers on this live version is Sam Brown, Durga McBroom, and Claudia Fontayne.

[@SeventeenLeagueBoots]

I AM crying! So freakin beautiful!!! Love that you're diggin' it at the same level!

[@Fcutdlady]

The first singer is the great Sam Brown . Sadly shes lost her singing voice and is now a ukulele teacher/player. Second voice is the equally great Durga McBroom . The third vocalist was Claudia Fontaine who has a lovely voice too !

[@AlBarzUK]

Thanks. What a shame for Sam Brown! 😢

[@tonynoble4313]

[@HughShower]

Sad that lost Claudia in 2018 at the age of 57 😢

[@Fcutdlady]

@@HughShower i didn't know Claudia Fontaine had passed on . May her memory ever be honoured

[@mikebunner3498]

My visit to your channel young man. Pink Floyd is one of my favorite bands ever!! Prepare yourself this song and singing will make you emotional .. These ladies solo reminds me of a sister singing gospel in the church.... Take care A-Dog.... Later

[@robvandeklundert8588]

You should listen to this song performed at the "delicate sound of thunder" tour. For me it is the best version of this song, besides claire torry's original whitch will always be the best forever. In this one all three voices went right through my soul. That is te song they must play at my funeral. Look it up (gonna be hard, they block almost everything), listen and be awestruck....

[@MrNegative57]

I agree with you. I saw the Delicate Sound of Thunder tour, by far the best Live tour recording. With the exception of Astronomy Domine and One of These Days on the Momentary Lapse of Reason tour. Delicate tour was absolutely incredible. Best Concert ever, hands down.

[@scottswindle1623]

I went ahead and did a thumbs up on this cause your the first person I've seen doing a reaction to pink floyd. You know this is the type of music you can set back chill and just get on another level listening to there music.

[@thejane598]

Claire Torry is amazing. The entire album is a huge story and this part is improvised. She was singing about the process of dying. The entire album is freaking magical. 🔥

[@LollyAndSweets]

Hahaha love your reaction “how many Pink Floyd....” “ALL OF THEM!” 😍😄😍 Hell yeah!! They’re brilliant! This is my fav Pink Floyd song EVER! Moves you to the core every time you hear it 💝 Fell in love with it age 15 - im 58 now - the album, Dark Side of the Moon, one of the best ever! ❤🌏☮️

[@susanbenson4201]

As good as this is, the studio version that’s on the album, sung by Clare Torrey is brilliant, singing the five stages of death without a word! Getting this album in 1973 and hearing this song for the first time, I was crying!! I wore the grooves out playing this whole album repeatedly!! Go down the hole and listen from beginning to end, all Pink Floyd records are meant to be listened to front to back. ☮️❤️

[@aspjake123]

Been awhile!!! Thanks for your review. YES all the Ladies here can sing. Been listening to this song for decades and still bring tears to my eyes. Yes sir it does.

[@christinerobinson9372]

I have a different take on this song, I believe she is singing all of life, from her own birth, to giving birth, to death. And of course, as good as this is, you should also listen to the studio version, which was performed by just one woman, who gave a performance that really can not be repeated as it was completely spontaneous.

[@twigd3825]

i have been listening to this since it first came out and it still bring chills to me no matter who is singing that part

[@marcuswirtz490]

this song is the "softly spoken magic spell" of the previous song; a transition from birth to death. And while this version is excellent, it doesn't hold a candle to the original... Now if ya want freaky, there are "several species of small furry animals gathered in a cave and grooving with a pict." also by Pink Floyd

[@RobbingBanks-f8y]

I was there , this part was so incredible, everyone was in tears such a good song so powerful. To hear it live was unreal .

[@guyturbide6348]

OK❗ Really Really good ❗❤ But you won't believe me If I told you that no version is better than the original By CLARE TORRY It's a norther level Try it 🙏 Keep the GOOD WORK my friend ✌

[@brianmoser3947]

We are one, so discern and enjoy my brother!?!👍🙏🥰😘😭😊😎❤️🎈

[@mengo1400]

I watched your reaction now twice.....what a song. one of tghe best songs ever heard.....no words full of emotions. Awesome

[@poyznelf]

The original was way better but I can only imaging hearing this live at a concert would make the crowd freeze in awe

[@armadillotoe]

It does.

[@nnicc]

Yes.I saw this twice in one weekend.Philly on Friday and NYC Sunday.Awesome

[@boosuedon]

Founding member and band leader, Syd Barrett listened to an old 78rpm blues album put out by two black blues musicians from North Carolina. He was so impressed that he talked the other band members into changing the name of the band to honor them and their style. The were PINK Anderson and FLOYD Council. At first, they called themselves: "The Pink Floyd Sound". Later it was just "Pink Floyd". They were definitely the cerebral band of rock!

[@billperron2]

Tears to my eyes. So soulful and heartfelt.

[@jeannec.2730]

I almost cried seeing the joy on your face, and the beauty of their voices, and the magnificence of each instrument!

[@TheHunnyMummy]

I was at that concert 😍 gives me goosebumps, I was in ICU for a while got all the Drs and nurses and other staff into Floyd with this song 😍

[@davidkennedy8754]

This is the most sincere reaction I have ever seen. Brother I can say that you were really moved. Once again I love your honest sincerity.

[@dominicorange1468]

My brother, love your reaction to The Floyd and Sam Brown. I went to see them on this tour at The Feyenoord Stadium in Rotterdam in 1994 when I was 21 years old. Listening to the band and those girls sing, what an ethereal experience, One of the best nights of my life!! Take care and never stop listening to Pink Floyd. ;))

[@richardtaylor8595]

I love your attitude and your reactions. My newfound friend for reactions. I will be throwing some your way but tonight I got my drink on so I just sitting back and enjoying your show. We just got into the lady singing and your reaction made me laugh so hard. Sit back and enjoy. These angelic voices make me cry every time I hear this song.

[@firebearva]

It does my heart good to see you so moved by one of the best sounding voices put down on vinyl.

[@lanapeterzon9055]

About the 20th time I've watched your reaction. Love it every.single.time. !

[@TheLexiechey]

HUGE Pink Floyd fan here ! seen them 4 times in concert, my kids grew up being huge fans also, Pink Floyd is an experience, the best head music anywhere, at any time.

[@steve1962]

I was at that concert.........hairs on the back of my neck stood up........the best rendition of that song, apart from the studio version by Clare Torry when the album was recorded in 1973.

[@davidr.5749]

You brought back old memories with this one. thank you and God Bless...

[@olly8]

The blonde is Samantha "Sam" Brown singing on this version. STOP is another good song by her, and Horse to the Water on Concert for George Harrison. FANTASTIC voice!

[@russelljackman1413]

When you said that, "I almost cried!" My eyes were already welled up to the brim. Yeah, amazing...

[@markussmary6890]

Every time Of hear it, Play guitar to IT. I am Out of words. sweet reaction. never mind having a tear in your eye, man, when you hear it. so cool your reaction. did you recognice what the voices are saying? the man Talks about, that he is not afraid of dying, We have to go Sometimes. the Woman in the middle of the Song says: "I never wanted to die!" Great, very sympathatic Young man you are. best wishes. Markus
