Thanks to older siblings, I’ve been listening to this masterpiece of an album since it was released in ‘73. Sadly, in ‘77 I had a brother who took his own life. At the time such things weren’t spoken about. There was no one to turn to. No minister, no school counsellor, no doctor, no hotline # to call. This song took on a whole new meaning and became my 14yr old self’s therapy. I don’t know how Clare Torry managed to tap into such emotion, but I’m so glad she did. Thanks WMOG for going extra mile in doing the studio version. I know you put your all into your videos. ❤ and appreciation

[@TheCheffer76]

Seriously, my sister is 8 years older than me and she introduced me to Bob Marley, Pink Floyd and the Clash.

[@WonderMommaOG]

Thank you so much. I'm sorry to hear about your loss. One that you feel to this day, no doubt. I'm almost thankful that as kids of that era that we had to rely on music for therapy and escape. It was a magical time in music to do so. Thanks for your comment, Jill. 💜

@@WonderMommaOG ty for your kind words. Life’s not always easy or fair, but I feel it’s a gift worth fighting for. Absolutely it was a great time to grow up. I’m partial to 70’s tunes but I love a wide variety of music from all the different decades, past and present. It’s really great that you’ve chosen to use your channel to connect people through music. Kinda like group therapy lol 🎵🎶☀️

denial, anger, bargaining, depression, and acceptance...the five stages of death, and Clare's voice expressed every one without saying a word. DSOTM was my first ever concert and this album, and this song, will forever have an impact on me that words can't express.

[@Friend_Of_The_Muse]

You nailed it my Man!

[@DRDickey]

Every part of the song is brilliant. When Parsons removes the reverb at the end it pulls Claire Torry up close, it's like she's right in front of you saying, "it's ok, don't be afraid, come with me."

[@FeralPatrick]

Embarrassingly, when I first heard this song at age 18, I laughed. I didn't "get" it right away and I laughed at what I didn't understand, and laughed at the unbridled emotion Clare released. I wasn't ready. Today, I have to steel my emotions when I listen to it because I feel every note, every wail. Excellent work again, Momma.

[@godbluffvdgg]

It was my least favorite on the album when I heard it in 73...I really didn't appreciate it until the 2000's Now I love it's profundity, But; Pink Floyd has MANY of those profound songs...

[@WonderMommaOG]

💬As promised, the studio version! This was a bit of a challenge doing the same song back to back, but I made it through. It’s an amazing piece of music so it was worth it! The most challenging part was narrowing down 102 reactions to 31. I’ve never had that many to start out with. ❓I did notice a couple of things during this process that I never noticed before! That odd little bend in the fade out of the song… was that intentional? I’m betting it was. Some kind of after death symbolism? 🎹There are some amazing organ effects from 4:10 - 4:15 that I never noticed before! 😞Like with the part I marked in the live version that made me feel heavy and sad, likewise with this original at 6:23. PLEASE take a moment to show some love to the reactors used in this compilation. All of their original links are in the description. ONTO THE NEXT! 💜

[@jaskau2462]

I would guess all of it on the album is intentional, thinking how much time they used in the studio at this stretch of Pink Floyd (???) 🤘😎 🇫🇮 💙 💯 💥

[@videodavideo]

I bought the vinyl when it was released, one of my first albums growing up, listened to this a million times and I too never caught that 'bend' at the fade out till just now. Maybe part of the the later remaster.. I dunno I always knew DSOM was something beyond special. It's timeless.. Will probably still be regarded as one of the greats in another 50 years, even in next century.. Who knows. Thanks for your amazing efforts WM ❤️ No doubt, this vid will contribute to DSOM longevity!

[@lafelong]

Curious choice of using the live version for the "Making of" section. 🤔

[@thepragmatic6383]

For those interested in the many little details included in Pink Floyd's music, like the one at the end of this song, where you can hear this slight pitch variation: Look for this series of 15 videos titled: Pink Floyd - The Record Producers You will be able to hear excerpts from the original tapes before adding effects or vocals. Among other things, Great Gig In The Sky with communications between NASA and the astronauts on mission instead of Clare Torry's singing.

[@kay8388]

Hi, my Dadd has seen Pink Floyd 7 times in their prime. Back then concerts were like going to the symphony(certain bands). You sat and listened to the show...no cheerleader or choreography stuff. Also as the house lights went out at the start of concert everybody sparked up "spliffs" so all shared this stoned vibe. The sound and lighting was state of the art. At various parts of the show the sound went into Quad for dramatic effect. The keyboard or guitar or voices as well as birds, trains would go around or side to side. It was a spectacle and a fully immersive experience. Back in the 60's and 70's Cannabis and psychedelics were the popular drugs and the music reflected this. "Echoes" was structured like a symphony with 4 parts. Glad you could enjoy and appreciate Pink Floyd and the where they could take thought feeling and emotion and the human experience. Stay cool and open and enjoy......:) Show less

2 takes. She did the 1st one. As she was preparing to leave, she asked if she could do a 2nd take--and the rest is history. Many years later, she was granted a credit for the composition and 10M.

[@boddaboom77]

Cool story, but it was two takes. The first take she threw in some words like "oh yeah" and "baby". Gilmour told her no words so she figured out how to use her voice as an instrument and nailed the next take. There is an interview with her on YT talking about her experience recording this.

[@Star_R666]

Yes, yes and yes. You did an incredible job. Muah Back in the 70's my Mom's boyfriend asked what I wanted for Xmas. I gave him a list of albums. I never thought he would get every one of them. One was Dark Side of the Moon. Some friends had the album and inside were a couple posters, postcards, stickers and such. When I opened mine I noticed the posters and everything was different. I then noticed that I actually had a copy of the quadrophonic version of this album. Quadrophonic record players were very very rare. A few years later a friend got a job at an electronics stores for all types of record players and such. I told him about my album and he said come to the store on a particular Saturday with the album. They happened to have received a quadrophonic player and it was put in a soundproof room with 4 huge speakers. When I got there they literally locked the doors to the store and my friend invited a few people. Everyone in the store including the owner went into that room and we listened to the entire album. It was incredible and a one time thing for me for sure. In case you don't know what quadrophonic is, you know when you listen to a stereo and you can hear certain sounds in one ear only and they back and forth - stereo = 2, quadrophonic = 4. Those 4 speakers had things bouncing around to each speaker and also mixed between 2 and all 4. I'll never forget that day.

[@JB-tr6nu]

In the early 70's I somehow acquired a Sanyo 8 track Quadraphonic deck for my car with 6 Blaupunkt speakers out of Mercedes-Benz & got this Pink Floyd & Santana Abraxas albums in Quadraphonic I was 18. Me & friends would drive around all night & trip on these albums but with a little help from some Purple Micro-Dot acid that was popular at the time....Wonderful memories ❤😊❤

It is often said that tastes are not debatable, but for me, DSOTM is the best album I know. The lyrics of this album are timeless, and its music is still very avant-garde. Meaning of "avant-garde". This term is used to describe ideas, works or movements that are innovative and experimental, often breaking with established conventions.

[@tonym6854]

The story behind this recording is as insanely good as the recording itself. She did one take and refused to do another. And the band agreed. She was paid around $60 for this and only recently received more for her incredible sound. Look up the making of Great Gig and you'll understand.

[@seandobson6221]

This is arguably one of the greatest interludes in rock history! This reaction is what Pink Floyd meant for someone to feel it when they heard it. Honestly I’d love to see one where they react to the entire album.

[@WonderMommaOG]

I've thought about doing the entire album... but I would need a supercomputer to edit a video that long. 🤣 My 9 year old Dell gaming laptop does a fine job and has lasted me longer than any other computer I've ever had... I might even say I've grown an attachment to it for being such a reliable computer for so long... but it struggles a little near the end of editing a 15-20 minute video. I think the whole DSOTM album would murder it and I would be super sad. 😅

Please! understand this is what we old dudes listened to so this is why many of us don't understand rap after growing up with Pink Floyd. We are scared this would get lost or buried away. It makes me so happy to see young beautiful souls reacting positive to Pink Floyd. The 70's was a time of creative music; Pink Floyd was the pinnacle of 70's musical creativity. They journeyed into the unknown, they entered a black hole, found a musical supernova with infinite color, then brought it back and revealed to all, "Listen to what we found! A sound more precious than anything innate." Great Gig In The Sky is a musical prophecy. Pink Floyd was the chosen messenger. This sound does not belong to anyone or any time; Great Gig In The Sky is timeless...

The singer's name is Clare Torry. I saw a documentary of the making of Dark Side of the Moon. Clare said she did it in one take. When Pink Floyd does the song live, they have three singers do it one at a time. Clare even jokes that there were no lyrics for her to sing and when she asked about them the band said, "Just use your voice as if it is an instrument" She said, "So I did", and added with a smile, "But it takes 3 different women to sing it when they do it live".

She was given very little instructions, her first take she sang scat, then they told her they didn’t want any words. Her second take is the one they used. She wanted to sound like an instrument. They asked her for a 3rd take. She told them no. That was the best you’re going to get. The. She went on her way.

This is fearless music years ahead of its time - no one would dare to create a song with no lyrics and just containing a vocal interpretation of the music itself. Such a moving piece, it’s about accepting death, first we fight it and are angry at the loss and then we accept it and come to terms with it. Only this band could be this original. The album is about birth and death- to think such brilliant music and powerful lyrics could be produced in 1973/4 is why the Floyd are such an influential band.

To be able to connect to a feeling you've never felt, that you will feel only once (and will face alone), then to translate and express that feeling in such a deeply connective and relatable way with no words at all. . . . And on top of _all that,_ she somehow managed to still be a professional singer and not just lose herself in it, doubling over with the intensity of it, or otherwise move away from the mic. You'll never hear a song with more raw emotion. Yes, many songs take you to that place, but none can be called 'better'.

When you hear this now it reminds you of your loss, but it also reminds you of the man your father was! A bitter sweet feeling. It is good to have a ‘tear jerker’ at the funeral ( tears can be cathartic and aid acceptance) Mine would be Jordan by The Rival Sons.

Yes, it's the 5 stages of grief - you can hear each one, denial, anger, bargaining, depression, and acceptance.

[@MDLOP8]

In total, the song (ESPECIALLY when Claire Torry launched her vocals) DEMANDS accountability on a scale that is frightening and without mercy: "SHOW ME in your private thoughts how much you LIVED your life and how much worth did it matter?" It's like the Egyptian Book of the Dead moment where the soul has his/her heart weighed and the outcome will be Paradise or being devoured by a crocodile. This song makes you stop instantly and think about what you want your legacy to be: of value or cast aside like dust.

Hey Momma, I hate that there is a battle within and out, over this song. I love every version, theres no bad version. Its such a powerful, emotional, brilliant song. The talent surrounding this song in every way, no matter who is singing/playing is masterful. Being chronically ill and in therapy for coping with grieving my life, (which I didnt know u could do) hits in a whole new profound way. As we grow older we still go thru every emotion over death...anger, fear, depression, acceptance, but somehow find it easier to accept. Clare deserved credit for sure, what she created with Floyd was brilliant, but the grls that followed, did her creation justice. The pain of the mind is worse than the pain of the body. Thanx so so much, Blessings of Peace

Another great one Momma, please please please do Sorrow from Pulse when you can. On the reactors, as alway you chose reactors I already love/loved watching even before I discovered you. "Great gig in the sky" has always been a euphemism for death and she's singing out the five phases of grief in coming to terms with one's own demise; Denial, Anger, Bargaining, Depression and finally Acceptance. She sings them out beautifully without a single word. Pink Floyd is a musical genre unto themselves and in my humble opinion the greatest band in the history of the human race. Bravo and well done to them and to you my sister. Peace and love

Momma, it was a pleasure to watch your finished endeavor. Thank you for sharing your hard work. Can't wait to see what's next.

Claire Torry, the vocalist in this song improvised this performance on the spot and was paid essentially $150 for it.

The vocal was improvised, she was winging it. Brilliant. Clare will always be remembered, immortality. Us other musicians wish we could achieve this.

[@fzzbubble]

Her vocal is an interpretation of the soul leaving the body, IMHO

My Dad bought this album when it came out and listened to it over and over and over and over again. He drove my mother crazy, she eventually threw it out of their flat window. 😂 Don't worry, he bought several different copies and versions afterwards. I grew up from a baby listening to Pink Floyd and still listen regularly. It's a part of my soul. My Dad suddenly fell I'll last year and spent two months in the hospital in the ICU. I sat at his bedside, put in his earbuds and he listened to this whole album one last time. It was the last music he heard. Pink Floyd songs were also played during his funeral along with Mike Oldfield, David Bowie, Jackson Brown and 10cc. Music is literally in our souls and grabs our hearts. This song was used when we walked out of his funeral ceremony, words cannot describe. ❤

Sorry to hear about your Dad. I lost mine in March and know first hand, it's not easy.

This song accompanied me all day, the day my mother died. I love you Rosita🌹

This woman brings together all the BEST reactions to the music we love so we can share in ALL the new experiences. I LOVE IT !!!!! 💥💥💥👍😎 Thanks OG.🤪

[@WonderMommaOG]

And thank YOU, Lord Eagle. 😅 What a regal name you've chosen. I love parrots and raptors!

A beautiful job, Momma! Hate to sound like an "old head," but it's heartwarming to see so many people younger than me (64) have such an appreciation for this song and the album as a whole. Still sounds as fresh as the day it was released half a century ago. Thank you for another stellar effort. Suggestion: a mashup of reactions to Dire Straits' "Alchemy Live" version of "Sultans of Swing." The reactions I've seen are marvelous. [Love the new profile pic, BTW 😍]

[@WonderMommaOG]

Let your "Old Head" flag fly! I really try to embrace the aging thing... 'cause there's nothing I can do about it. 😁 I spent too much time when I was younger criticizing myself, making myself miserable and boo hooing about this, that and the other. I shouldn't have done it then so I'm definitely not going to do it now. See... I'm rambling like us old heads do. 😅 Thank you so much. I do agree... I can't ever hear these songs for the first time ever again, but watching others do it is a reasonable solution for yet another thing in this life I can do nothing about.

Dark side of the moon blew me away . I would listen to the album all the way through every time . When I finally saw them live and this song started ...I literally had full body goose bumps and I think I may have teared up . THANKS for this video .

[@TheLastBoomerLeft]

So happy you did a reaction to the album version. ❤

[@pn1457]

Thank you for doing the studio version.

[@nobodysbusiness566]

Even with the man speaking at the start about dying, moost don't seem to know the song is about dying, refusal to accept it, fighting it and then eventual acceptance. It's very touching and something we will all experience, i'm nearly 60,. yes I'm frightened of death, but I'm also excited to find out what is next. If there is nothing next that is ok as wel,l as I wont know. :) Bring it on I say :)
