You know, I've heard maybe everything by Pink Floyd a thousand times. I still enjoy it, of course, but for the last few years I've been entertaining myself by watching the reactions to their music. I have to say, I'm enjoying it immensely. Watching those enthusiastic people staring open-mouthed, shaking their heads in disbelief and smiling and fooling around like I did when I first heard them. Then I love hearing the verbal reviews and reactions to their music or videos. I have to say, it really moves me. Thanks a lot. If I could recommend one really fantastic journey, it would be Shine on you Crazy Diamond (I strongly recommend the studio version with the original animated video though). This is an absolute musical masterpiece that will shoot you into space.

I listened to this song and the entire album when I was a young teen, then a middle-aged man and now a man in his twilight years. For me, the meaning has not changed over those years. As I got older, the meaning became more powerful, more intense, more pertinent to my life. I saw in the comments of various people recommending The Great Gig in the Sky from the Pulse concert. Yes, that version is probably the best live version out there. The ladies were certainly excellent. But the album version was done by Clare Torry who was the one who composed the vocalizing ad lib over two and a half takes with no instructions from the band other than to use no words. Clare Torry's version is nothing short of breathtakingly powerful.

In a nutshell this song covers the span of a life; it starts with a child frittering away their free time, moves to a young adult realizing their years are slipping away, then an adult with their time consumed by work until their "song is over" with less to show for it than they'd hoped. It concludes with the senior by their fire at home and then finishes with the church bell and prayers at their funeral.

When I was a teen and early 20-something, I liked Pink Floyd well enough, enjoyed this song, and thought it sounded cool but didn't really think about it very deeply. Tbh, I'm not sure I could've even told you what it was about back in the day as I think I only ever really half listened to it. As a middle-aged man, however, the lyrics of "Time" are devastating and, more often than not, will make me cry. And yet I still listen to the song because it's a brilliant, gorgeous piece of art that perfectly encapsulates a painful but universal truth that we, as humans, all share. Btw, I agree with what you said at the end, that "Time" is a good song to listen to and reminisce, but I also think it's a great song to listen to for motivation to stop procrastinating and do something. It reminds you that life is short and we only have so long to do the things we want to do, so stop waiting and just do them while you're here and you have your brief moment in the sun. As much as I find "Time" devastating in the thoughts and memories it brings up of what I haven't done, this song has also, on many occasions, inspired me to get moving and do things I'd put off for years.

In a recent interview with fellow youtuber Rick Beato, David Gilmour said about his playing that from very early on, he tried to play faster, but he simply couldn't get there, which i find a humble admission from someone so highly regarded. For me, his playing is about precision and the beautifully crafted songs that will last for decades if not centuries. Give me that over flashy and forgetful any day.

The Pulse concert included the entire Dark Side of the Moon in the second half. The third best selling album of all time (behind Jackson Thriller and AC/DC) in the album charts for a constant 17 years. DSOTM was from 1972, this concert is 1994 but the compositions (they're not just songs) are timeless. I've loved them since they formed in 1965 and still get goosebumps listening. All of their songs carry a message, one that hits you harder the older you get. I'm 75, my kids listen to Pink Floyd, my grandkids listen to Pink Floyd. Although PF basically ceased after the death of Rick Wright the keyboard player, guitarist Dave Gilmore still tours now aged 78 playing PF amongst his own numbers and he still makes his guitar sing. The best guitarist ever from the best band on the planet.

"Time" was released in 1973. Ticking away the moments that make up a dull day You fritter and waste the hours in an off-hand way Kicking around on a piece of ground in your home town Waiting for someone or something to show you the way Tired of lying in the sunshine, staying home to watch the rain And you are young and life is long, and there is time to kill today And then one day you find ten years have got behind you No one told you when to run, you missed the starting gun And you run and you run to catch up with the sun but it's sinking Racing around to come up behind you again Sun is the same, in a relative way, but you're older Shorter of breath and one day closer to death Every year is getting shorter, never seem to find the time Plans that either come to naught, or half a page of scribbled lines Hanging on in quiet desperation is the English way The time is gone, the song is over, thought I'd something more to say The original bassist with Pink Floyd Roger Waters, co wrote it with David Gilmour (Lead singer) - “I wrote that when I was 29 years old,” Roger Waters once told Rolling Stone. “The bits in the song where it goes, No one told you when to run/You missed the starting gun, it’s about my experience of being 29 years old and certainly going, ‘Fuck me. It’s the middle of life. I’ve been told that I was preparing for something.’ “The reason it’s a good song is because it describes the predicament of anybody who, growing up - if we’re grown up at all - suddenly realizes that time is going really, really fast,” Waters continued. “It makes you start to philosophize about life and what is important and how to derive joy from that.” The concert in the film was circa 1994 at Earls Court, London

Speaking of time... this song is over 50 years old. This performance is 30 years ago (I saw this tour live in 94). Somehow it still sounds fresh and relevant. Sonically, Lyrically, Musically, Visually, this could have been cut and performed yesterday. Well it couldn't, because nobody does stuff like this now, but you would never think this music is so old. But back to the 30 year thing, when this was performed in 1994, 30 years earlier would have been 1964. It bogles my mind how rock music changed so dramatically in such a short time from the early 60s to the early 70s. We haven't really had that kind of a leap forward since. Just kind of blows your mind, what legends like Pink Floyd were able to accomplish without much of a roadmap. When I was coming of age, in high school then college, we all loved the classic bands. Led Zeppelin, The Who, The Stones, etc. But Pink Floyd somehow still transcends generations more than those bands. Not saying they're better, but they continue to connect with people. You see so many young people with Pink Floyd shirts for example, and some of the actually have listened to the music lol!

Dark Side Of The Moon is much better if you listen to the entire album from the first track to the last. The muisc and musicianship can still be appreciated piecemeal - the odd individual track here and there over diferent days - but you then miss a geat deal of it's impact, themes and transitions. This album, is an album first and foremost. You get so much more from a complete listen through. I bought the vinyl on its UK release and listen to it about three times before I realised that the sun had set and I was sitting in the dark with my headphones on. Brilliant. BTW this is not a plea to react to the album online. Just do yourselves a favour and listen to it at home (not driving or working) without interruption.

Pink Floyd is definitely an experience. The soundscape takes you on a journey, YES. A note, this is the 3rd track from the album Dark Side of the Moon. It is a complete journey/story from start to finish. The "home again" section is a reprise of the earlier track called "Breathe In The Air". The track before Time is an instrumental, depicting a nightmare of fear of flying and at the end the plane crashes, then the alarm clocks wake you up from that nightmare... There is a reason this remains one of the highest selling albums of all time, it is pure musical and lyrical genius. You really must listen to the whole album from start to finish. It has not only been among the highest selling albums of all time, but it has also been selected for inclusion in the list of most influential recordings of all time, in the Library of Congress. I don't believe you really listened to the lyrics, because in stark contrast to the spacey feeling of the music, the lyrics are rather deep, somewhat dark and like an emotional gut punch. To quote Roger Waters who wrote the lyrics, "It has some kind of universal appeal in that it confronts a number of major emotional and psychological concerns". The next track deals with how we face death, and it's called "The Great Gig in the Sky". Stages - anger, disbelief, pain, regret and finally acceptance - all without words in a unique manner.
