Dark Side of the Moon is a album that MUST be listened to in its entirety back to back, just awsome music
💯
It definitely helps to listen to it as a whole. I’m not sure how well full albums fit into the song reaction format, but it def. sounds like something ripe for a patreon or just have it on the house.
Agreed 100%
Amen.
Us and them might be one of their prettier songs. It is def a chill out song. 😌
Pink Floyd, like many of the great groups of the 70's, will live on forever, like Mozart and Beethoven. Hope you guys can take the time at some point, to get comfy someplace, throw those headphones on, and listen to the whole album in its entirety. Makes a big difference. I listened to Dark Side of the Moon the other night while watching the lunar eclipse. Had to.
@@Spo-Dee-O-Dee that’s always been my thoughts on this subject when people say something will live on forever. Hell, I bet that over 98% of kids under 21 couldnt even name a Pink Floyd song…
Totally agree, timeless music, they will listen to stuff from that era in space flights in the future. Pass the bong or the shot glass for the best era of music, ever!
@@Spo-Dee-O-Dee I agree with you totally..the only ones that will be remembered a century from now and beyond are Elvis and The Beatles because of the music and influence but not just that but the image and the tales that went with their careers..so much so it’ll become folklore..sort of myths that will be created throughout time
@@Spo-Dee-O-Dee what kind of a youtube response is this, maybe you can get a job over at the comedy club ruining punchlines.
Katie, I did the same thing! Cheers to you!
Amber isn’t just listening to Pink Floyd, she immersing herself in it. Exactly how this band should be experienced.
I'm an old, old Man - seen PINK FLOYD - I've heard them called everything....but never Elevator Music. (Laugh)
Yeah...
Calm and relaxing doesn’t necessarily mean bland.
@@Coneman3 Yes it does. It's an insult
Dick Parry on Tenor Saxophone just killed it. The backing vocals were amazing as well. It's a very deep song. The whole album is genius from start to finish.
You might like this album too ruclips.net/video/nrd9XSNurck/видео.html
It is absolutely amazing!!!
It's a song about WAR - and no commenters seem to realize that fact.
Also killed it on baritone!
The saxophone is the star in this song, and the sax intro is epic.
This entire album is an absolute, certified masterpiece.
As proven by it's standing in the Billboard top 200 for years
I'M SMILING what a freaking ride xxxxxx LOVE N PEACE
'Forward he cried from the rear and the front rank died' is such an epic lyric. Yes, Pink Floyd are wonderful musically but there are not many bands that can say so much in a single sentence like them.
Absolutely the best line of lyric of all time!
Roger Waters such a master lyricist. Brilliant.
My father used to lay in the living room in the early morning, before the sun rose, and listen to various kinds of music. He was a Vietnam vet, it was the mid 70s, and music was one of his ways to cope with what he'd went through. Sometimes I'd come in on Saturday, before cartoons came on, and lay on the floor with him, and he'd turn one of his clamshell headphones so I could lay next to him and listen. I remember this song clearly one morning.
He was my hero, and when I saw a tear run out of the corner of his closed eyes at that line...I was 7 or 8, and had no concept of what combat or warfare was like in person, but I understood my father was a military man. I didn't connect the lyrics then.
Years later, when I was a grown man, and had two of my own friends go off to Desert Storm (and thankfully come back), I was laying on the floor like my father, and listening to the entire album of Dark Side, and heard this song and those lyrics again...and it all hit me like a ton of bricks. I hadn't been through it myself...but I had empathy, and I understood. How many generations of young men throughout history had been scarred at the request of old men who used them like pawns?
I love knowing my dad and I can share the music of Pink Floyd like this, two different generations.
"Generals sat and the lines on the map moved from side to side."
What a simple yet devastating indictment of war.
rush
Back in 73 when this album came out we all knew immediately this album was going to be huge and be around forever. It is timeless.
Mr - When it came out I was sailing around the Pacific and totally out of touch with American culture. But here it is again.
Yes, easily one of the top 5 records ever made.
@@stevejette2329 It's actually British culture, the band are from London.
What was it like? Go into detail, please?!
HOW LUCKY WE'RE WE !!! PINK Floyd with me ALL THE WAY. THANK you Thank you Love Respect n Peace xxxx
I love how Pink Floyd are able to talk about the subtleties of injustice and conflict but do not hesitate to say where the responsibility lies.
DSoTM was released in '73 during my junior year of high school. I've never been high on anything, but back then chilling on a big bean bag chair with this playing on headphones was a trip all by itself. A few years later my best friend's dad bought one of the first quadraphonic audio systems and my friend and I used to sit in the middle of the room and engulf ourselves in the 4-channel surround sound version. Even now I love to listen to the 5.1 surround version on the home theater system. Never really get tired of it in any format... Nearly 50 years later, it's still a shut up and crank up the volume song/album.
I remember when my friend got a quad system. Probably 74~75. We would do the same thing(we would partake in some substances back then, lol). I think ELP had an album that was done specifically for quadraphonic systems, if I remember correctly. Good times..
Just like I did to The Wall album 7 years later!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Same here, except for the part about quadraphonic audio system.
@@BC-cp8nv Emerson Lake and Palmer's live album from 1974 titled "Welcome back my friends to the show that never ends" had a quad version I believe. Their concerts for this tour called The Get Me a Ladder tour were in Quad. I saw it here in Nashville Tennessee. Late 1973. By the way nice initials BC
Elevator music has no soul. Pink Floyd has soul. ❤️😁
You will never hear music like this again.
Definitely one of the PUREST Pink Floyd reactions I've seen, just closing your eyes and letting them take you on a journey...
Pink Floyd is such an immersive experience, you need time and space to absorb it with the mind and senses. Everything is in perfect place, all creating that emotional reaction unique to each listener. Its timeless. Most music will fade over time, but Pink Floyd standards will live forever. Most artists try to create sounds, PInk Floyd created music that sought out emotion in the raw recesses of our minds, and found them.
Well said!
Good analysis.
You hit the nail on tis head.You are correct 🙂
The sound engineer for this album was Alan Parsons. He later started The Alan Parsons Project, and it's a crime that you haven't reacted to them yet. "Sirius/Eye in the Sky" would be a good first choice, Jay should recognize the Sirius instrumental if he is any kind of sports fan. My favorite of theirs is "Time" will bring tears to your eyes. "Don't Answer Me" and "Wouldn't want to be Like You" are also good to hit.
Actually, as they are teachers, Tales of Mystery and Imagination might be a good start. It is all based on various Edgar Allen Poe stories. I liked the first two APP albums best, Tales and I Robot (based loosely on Isaac Azimov's Robot stories).
They have reacted to "Sirius/Eye in the Sky" and yes J immediately said the Chicago Bulls song.
@@rogercarpenter3491 If they did then it must have been pulled immediately, I usually watch the videos within 4 hours of release and have been watching from the beginning.
@@thomasmacdiarmid8251 While I really like those as well, I usually suggest the more Pop-like hits to get started down the rabbit hole.
My favorite Alan Parsons album is "Tales of Mystery and Imagination ". Edgar Allen Poe with a musical soundtrack.
Her at the beginning- she gets it
MAN, we sure had it in the seventies, musically! Music like this will never come again. I feel so blessed to have been part of that scene back then! And to still enjoy it today!
The 90's were great also! There were 5 classic albums released in September '91! Phenomenal!
Couple of new ones very RUSH influenced. Faith RESTORED Xxxxx Band name ??? Rock New 2023 well worth a listen xxxx
And, how did all these bands come onto the scene almost at the same time? The seventies were just amazing. I left home, I went to college, and graduated in the 70's. I got married in the 70's and my wife gave birth to our son, then. I was not down and out in the 70's. That's for sure. I was high as a kite in the 70's. The decade was so good to me.
It was wonderful wasn’t it. We’d lay around just listening to albums all night!
@@diannklotzbier7447 Yes. With black lights and black light posters.
Yes, we "pot heads" of the 70's did partake in the occasional "acid trip." The most harrowing was me and 3 friends went to see Pink Floyds, "The Wall" tripping on blotter acid (purple microdot) and it was perhaps the most profound musical and visual experience I've ever encountered.
I remember people taking acid and going to the laser light show in Sarasota Florida and they would last about 5 minutes because they couldn't handle it. But Us and them is about us versus the establishment Pink Floyd was definitely anti-establishment
Yes!! I remember going to the Hayden planetarium in NYC tripping & hearing Pink Floyd, Yes, Joe Walsh & many more. I was plastered to the chair & felt like the show was over in 2 minutes. Those were the days!! 🤘
@@speedyhairyson Yes, they most certainly were!
Olden days acid was nuts.
@@speedyhairyson yes! I miss those laser light shows at the Planetarium. They were all mind-blowing.
A must listen to Floyd song IMO is:
“Shine on you Crazy Diamond” (Pulse Concert)
Some would say that this is the greatest live guitar solo ever played...
Others wouldn't say it, because there's no need to when it's just *understood that it is*
" Forward! he cried ! ... from the rear .. and the front rank
Died.
Generals sat, and the lines on the map, moved from side to side ..."
I just have to say this. It is a real pleasure to see people truly enjoy the music I grew up on. Also, if you watch Amber from the beginning of ANY Pink Floyd song, you can almost pinpoint the exact micro second that the music grabs her and takes her on her journey.
Pink Floyd is a journey ..mental, emotional and spiritual ✌️💜😌
The lyrics are profound as usual. Dick Parry and his saxophones have been a part of Pink Floyd almost from the very beginnings. They have used other sax players, but continue to fall back on Dick. He comes on strong with two saxes in Shine On You Crazy Diamond.
His solos are masterful - such intensity.
The way Dick changed saxes was cool. Never seen that done before.
I never knew his name - Thank you - his sound resonates deeply. So subtle. I look forward to your reviews - thank you for brightening our day!!!! ☀️
“Fall back on dick”
😁
Profound, yes - IT'S ALL ABOUT WAR - and by these comments, this generation apparently doesn't know that!
I’ve always found Us and Them to be the most ethereal R&R song that I’ve ever heard. Absolute perfection.
When this album came out I had just gotten married and my husband and his family were building our home. They wired our entire house with speakers in every room. The amazing sounds of great music coming throughout our home was unforgettable. Being surrounded by Pink Floyd's music. 😀😀 Was lucky to have seen every Pink Floyd concert that ever came to Cleveland,Ohio. 70 years old now but never realized just how blessed I was to have grown up in such a great musical time. Thank you for not only the great reaction but the great reminders of the music of the best times of my life. Peace and blessings. 😊😊
When I was 17 years old my best friend had a denim jacket with Syd Barrett (founding member of PF) painting on its back by a high school friend of his. Loved it ! I'm 60 yrs old and I've been married to the artist for the last ten years. She's turning 60 in a month and still wears Pink Floyd shirt(Joplin, The Doors, Bowie etc 😀
Amber really gets Pink Floyd, she knows exactly how to get the best from their songs.
Amber if you read this the best trip song is "Echoes" but it is too long for your channel.
But if you get the time, play it to you're self when you need to wind down, I promise you will be floating away at the end.
Amber in general has become one of my favorite reactors on RUclips
Yeah, but Doesn't seem to get the fact that US AND THEM is a song about WAR.
@@jollyrodgers7272, Really it is about not only war, but about conflict of an ordinary man against other ordinary men that secombe to greed and power of an ordinary man that has been put into a high position where he doesn't belong. But you are right she didn't quite get the meaning of the song.
Ecclesiastes 8:9
All of this I have seen, and I applied my heart to every work that has been done under the sun, during the time that man has dominated man to his harm.
This song reveals that we’re all just ordinary people, and when one takes a deeper look, war is senseless death. This song is about the senselessness of war, inspired by the Vietnam War that was in progress at the time.
Sometimes it's senseless but not always
They were were the generation that directly followed ww2 that is the main anti war influence
Hey there has nothing but war especially since the boomers took over and won’t retire.
As someone who has suffered from depression this album is flawless and relevant.
What does your depression have to do with this world class album??
@@arizonacolour8793 The album was inspired by Syd Barrett's mental health problems
@@arizonacolour8793 yes "dark side of the moon" has nothing to do with sadness or depression
People are so unforgiving.
You HAVE TO hear this song again and without any break let the next track in and listen to that uninterrupted. That transition is a work of massive beauty.
Listen to the whole album that way really.
So many nights back then in friends basements. A little smoke, a little drink, black light's, and that album playing over and over. Then we all hurried home before our parents woke, to get us up for school. Memories still so vivid.
This album Dark Side of the Moon set a record for selling in the top 100 albums the longest. For sure you have to listen to the complete album from start to finish. This was when songs took you on a journey and were planned in the order the songs were placed. I like a gray rainy day through on the headphones and give it a listen!! Peace and Love from David in Detroit.
Top 200
@@Spo-Dee-O-Dee Shit got stolen, that's for sure. But vinyl wore out and buying multiple copies was not uncommon for the best-of-the-best albums. Collectors buying three copies right off the bat, one to never open, one to play, and a backup. I only had one copy of DSOTM before I got it on CD. Then the CD got stolen.
People are still buying it
Listen to Pink Floyd can make you cry when the melody touches your heart and the lyrics hit your brain at the same time.
This takes you on a trip. The VIBE is dripping.
"Even In The Quietest Moments" - Supertramp will take you around corners.
ALSO: I'm gonna forgive J for his "Elevator music" insult. lol
Yeah I caught that too.
Re Elevator Music -- do the young'uns still think of that as a muzak-kinda thing? Or does it mean something else today?
Calling this "elevator music" is blasphemous, I tell you, blasphemous.
Yeah, "Elevator music" is not the compliment he might think it is, and this song is seething frustration & anger alongside the beauty & relaxation, and is STILL relevant to this day- it echoes though time to now and keeps going:
Us and them-
And after all
we're only
ordinary men.
Me and you-
God only knows
It's not what
we would choose
to do.
"Forward," he cried
from the rear
and the front rank died.
The general sat
And the lines on the map
Moved from side to side.
Black and blue-
And who knows
which is which
and who is who?
Up and down-
And in the end
it's only round and round...
and round
"Haven't you heard
It's a battle of words?"
the poster bearer cried.
"Listen son,"
said the man with the gun,
"there's room for you inside."
Spoken- "I mean, they're not gonna kill ya
So if you give 'em a quick short, sharp, shock
They won't do it again. Dig it?
I mean he get off lightly, 'cause I would've given him a thrashing
I only hit him once! It was only a difference of opinion, but really
I mean good manners don't cost nothing do they, eh?"
Down and out-
It can't be helped
but there's a lot
of it about
With, without-
And who'll deny
It's what the
fighting's all about?
Out of the way
It's a busy day
I've got things on my mind
For the want of the price
Of tea and a slice
The old man died
That en't Muzak, kids- although some schmuck
probably made a Muzak version of it.
Elevator music. Blasphemy!
Listen to the album paying attention to the empty spaces. It is a brilliant job of not over producing bu Allen Parsons.
Allan Parsons project is an another rabbit hole of sounds and emotions
@@martintremblay5927 definitely
Speaking of Parsons: Jay and Amber need to check out Alan Parsons homage to Edgar Alan Poe, Tales of Imagination and Mystery. Check out The Raven , Tell-Take Heart, Cask of Amontillado, and Dr Tar &Professor Feather. The whole side is a trip! Maybe save it for October, Halloween theme reaction?
This album is a MASTERPIECE. It has evoked every emotion I have! I've cried and laughed. I've been deeply depressed but thrown into an elation of joy and wonder. Overall, I have sat silently and allowed it's music to take me into the halls of great art!
I feel SO lucky and SO privileged to have heard this song live multiple times, sigh, it's so bleeping good!
Trippy is the usual first reaction in type. But Floyd is so much more. They are the true masters of the Rock and Blues Symphonic Poem. They are the modern day equivalence of Mozart, Beethoven, Hayden, etc.
When people ask what my favorite Floyd is... I can only give them albums... as far as I can tell, each one is a complete song divided into chapters.... there are so many wonderful pieces on each one. This one in my headphones... Anxiety cure.
Beautifully said!
"A complete song divided into chapters." That's the perfect description of Pink Floyd's albums. Someone else here called PF the masters of the "rock and blues symphonic poem." Both of those descriptions work really well. Either way, there isn't anyone like them.
That's what makes Animals and Atom Heart Mother their best albums.
I was lucky to see them live in Cologne, my best concert ever and adored Live at Pompeij, many of you will know…. Out of this world.
I saw this in concert before the album came out, it was awesome!!!
Pink Floyd is just the gift that has kept on giving for 50+ years, and whose contribution to music will be felt for generations to come. In that regard, they are truly "classic" and in a rare league indeed.
I know it gets mentioned every time a PF song comes up, but do yourself (and us) a favor and react to "Comfortably Numb", the Live Pulse version. The additional live component as well as the visuals really take an already fantastic song and send it into a higher orbit altogether! Love you both, you make me smile daily! 😄♥
This and "Time" my favs in this album. You guys really need to listen to this whole album. That's how it was meant to be heard. You will get a better understanding. Thanks for what you do.
My fav from this one is Brain Damage and Eclipse and Any Colour You Like
@@michaellockhart554 Yeah man this has been and always will be my favorite album. Hard to believe it came out when i was 3.
"Elevator music"!!!! AAaaaarghh!
Listening to this song on acid is a trip that is unforgettable. The echoes had echoes, the snare drum roll sounded like a rapid fire machine gun and the spoken words in the low tone always came out in a different language. I couldn't tell which language was real and which one I was tripping on.
Some deep , heavy lyrics in this one . I love how they give us the words and then give us time to digest them during the solos
It's tough to take this album one song at a time, out of context. The songs blend into each other because it's really one 40-minute piece of music, meant to be taken in at once. Once you listen to all the songs, you should take the whole thing in as a whole experience. After that I'd also suggest watching the "Dark Side of Oz" video, where they sync the album up to the Wizard of Oz. There are a lot of weird coincidences in the film that match up to the music.
I wholeheartedly concur….they’re missing out on the true Pink Floyd experience if they don’t do that with any/all of Floyd’s albums!
Very similar to their Echoes song matching up perfectly with the end sequence to 2001 Space Oddysey.
1967 Pink Floyd “ Ibiza Bar “
5:01 She describes what it's like listening to Pink Floyd so well.
"even though they're guiding you, you can go on your own little journey". Never found the words to quite describe it but that's it.
This album never dates,the talent this group has is unbelievable,pure class
Perfection
Amber, the music is the meat, the words are the sauce. I spent forty years just enjoying the music. It's only recently that I paid much attention to the lyrics...and they are usually quite deep.
Ah, the soundtrack of our lives, and as you said, even more enhanced with what we had back then. Such a lucky generation! 💓
good job both of you happy you join pink floyd follow them over 45 years enjoy remember is music for the soul
Still remember exactly where I was the first time I heard this song - 45 years ago! Mind blowing. Goosebumps every time I hear it. Thanks for the reaction / review.
Floyd and especially this album, cannot just be LISTENED to, it must be EXPERIENCED!!!
What are they supposed to do besides listen?
I love how Amber assumes the position - neck relaxes, heads falls over, eyes slowly close and the slow swaying starts. That’s how you listen to Pink Floyd. 🥰
I am so lucky to have grown up with this music. I remember listening to this album over and over again as a 13-year old without realizing how this amazing music has affected me.
Now imagine hearing this when you are 8 years old and it is the very first concert you go to. I did this with an older Brother who took me to see them in 1973.
Jay when you stopped the music the look on Amber's face was a pure picture of: why did you do that, I was listening to that. You go girl feel the music.
It was like throwing ice cold water on someone during a 15 minute shower.
yeah .. because for him it was just elevator music
Sends chills all over my body, especially those beautiful crescendos. Another of the many PF masterpieces.
its so nice to see Amber "fly away" listen to Pink Floyd. So happy you young People love the sound from the time i was young.
This is a song about what could be the thoughts and experiences of a soldier at war. Very deep because weather you’ve been in a war or not, we can relate to the words in our lives. Please listen to the whole album at once with your headphones and the words you will be changed in a fundamental way. Love you guys!!
Jay's hammock is the best place to do this
Pink Floyd is an experience. Dark Side of the Moon is the best album ever made. EVER! They put on the best concerts! I listen to them when I have my ketamine infusions.
Every time you react to Pink Floyd, my favourite band EVER, I'm over the moon. Love you guys!
I think its about how we divide and separate ourselves from reality, with the perceptions of opposites, and differences.
Theres always a deep meaning in their songs.
Love Pink Floyd! So cerebral and soothing.
Intellectually stimulating to the max.
Jordan, I love how you immediately looked over at Amber when the sax started playing. So sweet.
HE KNOWS HIS LADY!!
I’m a huge WW1 buff; the lines: “Forward they cried/from the rear/and the front line/died.” sums up the entire senseless struggle and slaughter of the years 1914-1918.
This track sends chills down my spine and makes my eyes water---a masterpiece!
Pink Floyd "Dark side of The Moon". Only group to have their album be on the billboard top 100 list for 741 Weeks. Just proves the strength of their music and the fact that it truly crosses generations!
When I was a young man I got high just breathing in the smoke at a Pink Floyd show in Liverpool, England! Oh yeah, it was fun in those days!!
Dark Side of the Moon is a album that MUST be listened to in its entirety to capture the true flow of the songs.
My parents used to rock me to sleep with this song when I was a baby. I hadn't heard it in decades but somehow I found myself able to hum along to it. My parents are HUGE Pink Floyd fans and when I asked about it, they were shocked that I had any memory of this tune. As a resut, it struck a deep and primeval level of my psyche when I heard it again recently.
This really does need to be listened to on vinyl on a great system very loudly. (The 30th anniversary is good!)
You know, most people have a favorite Pink Floyd album, but I can't choose. They're all masterpieces and unique.
However, this album holds a special place in my heart. It was the first PF album I listened to, and brings back so many memories from my childhood. ❤️
True. I love The wall but Momentary lapse of reason is my favorite.
I grew up in the 70s. First time i heard this i was at a house party. I still remember it and i am 62! We couldn't believe what we were hearing! More weed Jay. Some lsd....🙄✌❤
You are my favorite reaction video team, I did subscribe, I'm 61 and grew up on Pink Floyd and I enjoy the music more just seeing you enjoy it.
Saw them live in 1970, 1980, 1990. Great Band, my 3rd favorite
Amber and Jay - another song that might give you the same "feels" as this is "Shine on you Crazy Diamond" (Parts 1 - IV) . Give yourself a little extra time on this one for it is ~14 minutes long. The story behind this song is also a pretty tragic, albeit an interesting one.
Brain damage/eclipse is the last thing from this album you need to react to
Can’t wait
Just for the record im72 years old and in the day not everybody was on lsd or acid we just chilled out like you guys and really enjoyed the progressive rock that is pink floyd and the messages that they where putting over in their music I never needed drugs to enjoy myself as I'm sure millions of others didn't either as the years have gone on I have come to enjoy pink floyd even more because I've come to understand the lyrics in their music fabulous rock band there will never be anyone like them again mores the pity great reaction nice to see young people being educated that's not a put down by any means it anything I envy you
I was listening to Pink Floyd in Germany (in the army). I decided to put the headphones on my little son to see if he liked it. His eyes got wide and he was captivated by the beauty of the music.
Was fortunate to see them live, one of the best concerts in my life!
Yes you were.
You should check out Alan Parsons, he was the engineer/producer on Dark Side.
All of you hit it just right What an era to live through. Music spoke to us in ways not many today can imagine. We were so lucky. Enjoy the Ride.
The 90's were something special too! There were 5 classic albums to come out in the month of September '91! Phenomenal
I have been listening to Pink Floyd for 50 years I did not understand all of it at first.
I still don't understand all of it now ... they still put me in awe decades later and I do know I love it ALL.
Pink Floyd isn't just smooth music it's a state of mind 🎶✌️
Listening to Pink Floyd is like taking a trip to another heavenly dimension without leaving your body. Keep listening to their great songs.
Buckets of Maple Syrup love from Canada 🇨🇦🇨🇦 ❤️ ❤️
You can only imagine where their ride will take you, it's awesome, I've taken it and it's something that you will never forget.
It's one of the best rides you'll ever take and never leave the safety of your own home.
I have had this record for decades and still enjoy it as much as i did in the 70s.
The soundscape of this song epitomizes the Alan Parsons production feel and vibe. An all-time classic!
There’s nothing better than the mellow chill vibe from Pink Floyd!!!
Black gospel music for me is the only other music that can touch me like our generations music.
100 years from now they will still be listening to this song and this album and marveling at it.
The lyrics are there for a reason it's poem a story all thier music the music brings life colors emotion to the lyrics 🎶
Back in high school (1982) in my Speech class we had to choose a song that we liked and speak it to the class. This is the song I chose...and so hard not to sing. Just so you know...not all of us were on acid, or any kind of drugs...gotta watch yourself on that.
Can’t go wrong with Pink!!! Need to do Learning to Fly
Y'All Love Pink Floyd so much, I can't wait to hear your reactions after listening to Dark Side of the Moon or any other all the way through. Each song leads into another, trip after trip. Get a pitcher of Margareta's ready.
My very first concert experience ever was going to see Pink Floyd in 1994 on the Division Bell tour in Atlanta with my dad. The sounds, the visual experience, the crowd... the inflatable pigs were all awesome. He still uses the clocks from the beginning of Time as his ringtone.
High Hopes is Dark Side Of The Moon quality. The Division Bell album is also beautiful!
You should check out David Gilmour (of Pink Floyd) his solo song 'On An Island' The backing vocals on the studio version are done by David Crosby and Graham Nash. Definitely a banger.
I just saw the 10 Pink songs y'all have done, and it seems like it may be time to cover "Echoes" live at Pompeii. Dark Side of the Moon was the first of their commercial albums. Everything before that was very trippy indeed, and much longer, more symphonic and psychedelic works. "Several Species of Small Furry Animals Gathered Together and Grooving with a Pict" is their most famous off-the-wall song. For psychedelic vibed songs, you can't go wrong with "I am a Walrus", Strawberry Fields Forever", "Incense & Peppermints", "Pictures of Matchstick Men". It helps to be tripping when creating or listening to such songs.
Dear Jay, dear Amber you are my favorite "reactors" to the music we all love. You are so wonderful together, and very important, you're able to FEEL the music of Pink Floyd, not only listen to it. I love you very much, greetings from Germany
Just love Amber's smile when that horn floated in. and yes this is so very trippy almost back to Syd Barrett Floyd.
Cool reaction, in my opinion this is one of the best anti - war, anti -poverty songs ever written. Highlighting the disparity between those with and without, the madness of war and the human suffering it brings. While all along the same people benefit.
Dick Parry's brilliant sax playing appears on several Floyd tracks.
