The older you are the more meaningful this song is.
Sitting here watching, having flashbacks (in a good way).
Amazing how it was written by lads in their 20s
The sun is the same in a relative way …
@@BenGendersonbut you're older
I'm right there with you dude.
At 21, these lyrics meant nothing to me. At 55, they bring me to tears. Time marches on.
And me, brother. And me.
And they were young when they wrote it…
I’m 25 and they’re already hitting me like a truck
@@gambleaway8252 : in this case, old age will bring peace... ; )
@@gambleaway8252 You still got time...make the most of it. It passes so quick and the lines about nobody telling you when to run and missing the starting gun, come to mean so much. It's painful!
This entire album was meant to be listened to continuously, at one time. It flows, unlike any other album .
That's the only way to listen to this album. Over and over with some bong hits.
Like mayonnaise....
Moody Blues Days of Future Past is also meant to be listened to, from beginning to end, one go.
“unlike any other album”. hmmm. there are many others
As evidence of this fact,
two songs were heard in this video
I hope when the camera is off, you sit back on your couch, hold that mayonnaise and stare deeply into its creaminess, and listen to an entire album.
After smoking a big fatty
Why is that jar of mayonnaise even there? I hope that while he’s staring into its creaminess and taking another deep toke on the fatty, he isn’t considering consuming the room temperature mayonnaise right out of the jar. Aside from straight-out-of-the-jar mayonnaise being just plain nasty when not on a sandwich or in potato salad, it can be easily contaminated. Food poisoning is easily avoidable.
When you are young the meaning of this song goes mostly unnoticed. When you’re older it hits you like a sledgehammer!
I was looking to see if anyone commented this. I was about to say it, but now I'll just agree. I remember first hearing this when I was just out of highschool. It sure does hit different now than it did then.
So true. When I was 18, the local community college planetarium would play this entire album during a laser light show. I was high and loved the hell out of it not caring about the meaning of the song. I wish I had paid attention......
And there was a hit song called Sledgehammer.
Peter Gabriel, Genisis...
Hey, hey, you there
Tell me how have you been?
You could have a steam train
If you'd just lay down your tracks
You could have an aeroplane flying
If you bring your blue sky back
All you do is call me
I'll be anything you need
You could have a big dipper
Going up and down, all around the bends
You could have a bumper car, bumping
This amusement never ends
I wanna be your sledgehammer
Why don't you call my name?
Ah oh, let me be your sledgehammer
This will be my testimony
Yeah (yeah)
remarkable isn't it considering that they weren't old when they made it.
Hi Michael I’m a 71 year old Brit. On March 10th 1967 I was a 14 year old looking forward to leaving school and whilst browsing at my local record store noticed a band called Pink Floyd had released their first record this very day. I listened to it and bought it. The single was titled Arnold Layne so began my lifelong love of Floyds music. I’ve seen them several time over the years but the Pulse live concert 1994 is in my opinion the best show ever. Please have a listen to their rendition of “Comfortably Numb” I think you’ll be hooked. Best regards and enjoy.
Welcome to the rabbit hole.
BINGO! I'M 70. ,)
The live show ruined me for life😂
Pink Floyd never made random noise. It all had a purpose
Dude... you have to listen to this whole album from start to end. It's an experience. There is a reason why Dark Side of the Moon is considered one of, if not the greatest album ever recorded.
Exactly. It is one long piece of music, designed to be heard as a unity.
No doubt whatsoever. The greatest album ever produced. Dark Side of the Moon, in one form or another has been on Billboards Top 200 for over 50 years. Timeless music. When a teenager I did not care for it. Now it is one of my favorites which I listen too over and over. Wore out the vinyl, then the 8-track, cassettes, then CD and now digital
I have like 100 times!
One of those "headphones only" albums.
You really need to listen to this again, alone, and with the lyrics. It will give you a whole new perspective.
As I approach six decades on earth, this has become my favourite song.
So cool to see young people react to music that us "seniors" grew up with and loved. Welcome to the age of the greatest rock music ever made.
Pink Floyd is gift to humanity. Nobody emotes with their guitars like PF. Truly unique, standing alone with practically their own genre.
It's been said that David Gilmour doesn't use a guitar amplifier... he plugs his guitar straight into your soul.
are you talking D. G.
Seeing Gilmour live is an experience like no other. He not only plays the guitar, he plays the amp, the room, and the people. He often will harmonize with the echoes of his own playing bouncing off the walls of the amphitheater and how things will go in and out of phase depending on his timing and how he plays.
When others are long forgotten, Pink Floyd will remain as relevant in the future and as they are now and as they were when this album was released. This music IS timeless.
Michael I am really glad you have discovered Pink Floyd. I am 71. Enjoy the ride.
history says that the clocks at the start of the track were part of one of the band members actual clock collection ...... to mirror your question ...... "who does that?" ..... the answer is Pink Floyd
Possibly. I read the producer of the album, Alan Parsons, had already recorded the clocks and added them to the track. I read he was also responsible for the talking bits sprinkled out in the album.
You don't listen to Pink Floyd you experience Pink Floyd, Masters of Sound! Welcome to the show.
Been listening to Pink Floyd for 46 years .its what we referred to as real music back in those days . Before the Dark times . Before the A.I. 😂
"Emotional". The perfect word for David Gilmour's guitar playing.
I am almost 60 years old,I first heard Dark Side of the Moon when I was about 12 or so, as soon as I could scrape together the money I bought the album ... It seriously has been in my collection in some form ever since , The album hits harder today than when I was in my teens and 20s ... simply amazing !!
Yep, me as well it reset my brain and I was never the same again it's more devastating the older you get
Same my friend!!! Didn't get the lyrics then, but the structure of the song was so perfect I was sucked into it. I will be 60 on my next birthday and I was also about 12 when I first heard it. The lyrics are now the most critical aspect of this song. It amazes me that they were written by a man who was only 30 years old at the time.
I was 8 years old when this album came out. I'd sneak into my brothers room when he wasn't home and listen to it. Loved it then. Love it now.
I had it on 8 track lol.
You should have seen my mother's reaction when I asked for Black Sabbath's first album in 1971. She thought she failed in keeping her little boy clean.
Back in 1974, you put the needle in the first groove and let it play to the end of the first album side. Turn the vinyl album over and play side two all the way through.
This is the very reason why music mattered so much in the 60s and 70s and still does today. Dark Side of the Moon stayed on Billboard’s top 100 Albums over 750 weeks.
And then again, and again.....
DSOTM has just gone into the British top hundred album charts at no 8, not bad when you think it's 50 years old.
Imagine being in the army stationed in Germany, maybe waiting to get sent to Vietnam and smoking some blonde lebanize hash, and listening to this album, I was there!😊
this song takes you from childhood to death the magic spell is the prayers that is given after you die
One of the best songs of the best album in the world. Just my humble opinion.
The trouble today is we live in an instant gratification society…Pink Floyd tracks are usually linked together so ideally listened to as complete albums as each track sets the scene for the next and leads you into it.
This album is what I listened to as a troubled teen to calm me. I put on my headphones cranked it up and just played on my bed.
Same here.
It's what I still listen to as a troubled adult in my mid 40s
@@leonardwashington6456 It works in your 60's too LOL.
I listened to Echoes for the same reason.
I first heard this when I was 20. I appreciate it in a much different way, at 71. I still listen to this album.
Used to leave the radio on at night while I slept as a teen... until the beginning of this song happened at 3 am one morning.
Watching new generations discover and understand Pink Floyd give me hope for the future
My new hobby is watching first time Pink Floyd reactions and feeling those shivers all over again
My first ex-wife was a few years younger than me, so I introduced her to Pink Floyd. The first time she heard this she freaked out a bit because she had a "thing" about loud bells. But she learned to love PF almost as much as I do. The album Dark Side of the Moon was a concept album and the use of sound effects in the intro was very innovative for the time. The sound engineer was Alan Parsons, pre-Alan Parsons Project, and he was able to get just the right mix of sounds.
It is hard to believe that I have listened to this Album over a span of 50 years, I suspect that in another 50 years I shall not be listening to anything.... the lyrics do hit hard.
Deep meaning - yes... Not bongos, but tom-toms. This whole album, Dark Side of the Moon is meant to be listened to from start to finish, both sides. It's a continuous piece of music with smooth transitions between movements like a psychedelic symphony. And no not donkey pushing a cart at the start, it's the remnant of a sound effect of a plane crash as the previous song was about a nightmare of fear of flying. There is a reason this one of THE highest selling albums of all time! It is pure musical and lyrical genius.
The intro drums are not bongos, are not tom-toms but rather Roto-Toms. These are essentially tunable top heads only with no drum body so no resonance but just the fundamental frequency of the single head. They are usually in sets from about 4" to 16" in diameter. The more you have, the more you can tune within specific intervals to create tonal sounds. Pink Floyd uses them frequently. Tom-Toms on the other hand have a drum body and a bottom head allowing for an initial struck fundamental tone followed by the longish decaying resonance tone. Concert toms do not have a bottom head so the initial fundamental strike is more subtle and the overall drum sound decays more evenly and for a shorter time as a result.
@@scottjohnston1028 Thank you for clarifying that detail! Yes it makes sense that these are not normal "toms" as they are tuned and have specific pitches. And you can see Nick playing them set up vertically in the Pulse concert, including rotating one as the pitch drops:
czcams.com/video/GG2tZNOQWAA/video.html (Pink Floyd - Time (PULSE Restored & Re-Edited)) the downward slide in pitch occurs at time 1:20.
@@scottjohnston1028 Thank you for bringing this up. Few non-musicians even know what a Roto-Tom is. They are iconic to this song.
Pink Floyd is on another level altogether, every PF song is an Experience!
Comfortably Numb" live at Pink Floyds 1994 Pulse Concert, 30 years after their founding in 1964.
It still amazes me there are people out there who are not familiar with their music. Best band ever, 50 years later this album is still my all time favorite.
Pink Floyd is for the ADVANCED music listener. 👍👍👍💥😎
It appears you FELT that guitar solo,,,,,NICE,,,💥💥💥👍🤪
The song is called Time. The intro is clocks chiming, clocks ticking. Unfortunately, you can only listen to this for the first time once.
The second part of the song is " Breathe (reprise)".
What an incredible song. Pink Floyd is amazing.
No one today has the talent to come up with music like this. The gall is in calling most of today's popular noises music.
It's clocks. The song is called time. This is a great album.
Yep, so obvious!!! LOL He would really flip out over the song "Money"! LOL 🤠
Pink Floyd is a deeep dive and an incredible journey. Enjoy the band like no other!!
I don't push drug use of any kind
...buuuuuut if, and only if, one is already a weed user...this is THE album to play start to finish whilst baked.
A good pair of headphones, a dark room, a light buzz, and... Play!
No one matches David Gilmour on guitar for the emotion he exudes. My favorite song. My favorite guitar solo. And the lyrics hit home the more I age especially the last of them.
Before Netflix and chill it was Pink Floyd and chill.
Laser Floyd has been running consistently at The Pacific Science Center in Seattle every weekend since the ‘80s
You have to listen to the whole album. Been listening to this for over 50 years, it never disappoints. 'No one told you when to run, you missed the starting gun', jeez, how young were these guys when they wrote this, ffs. It resonates more with every passing year. Epic.
They were kids
@@user-tr9de6gm8k That's my point - so young but displaying a maturity and talent beyond their years. Exceptional, as were so many musicians of that era.
We think they were young, but they started in about 1964. Actually Roger was 30 when he wrote this, which is a bit of a disappointment to me.
It's great watching the younger generation find out about this great music. I' m 63 years old and the music my parents listened to (Doo-wopp) has been off the airways since the 70's, but this stuff is still played every day for over 50 years. If you like getting lost in the music I'd love to see your reaction to Black Sabbaths "Warning" or "Into the Void".
In younger days I loved the music. I still love the music but now appreciate the lyrics do much more!
First heard this album in 1973, and in my opinion it still is the greatest ever written!
It is great but for me larks tongues in aspic and still life are above it.
Shine On You Crazy Diamond...the studio version. It's a work of art.
I heard "Dark Side of the Moon" in concert in 1972, before the album came out. At that time the operating title was "Eclipse: A Piece for Assorted Lunatics". Suffice it to say, I waited with bated breath for the release of the album. Timeless.
Raging jealousy😮
I bought the bootleg copy of that concert in 1990...it is my prized possession mate!
Screaming Abdabs...Brain Damage.
Funny you said “timeless” during the playing of “Time.”
You’re right it is!
Listening to Pink Floyd since 1972 when I was 19 and in the Dutch army.
Thank you for your service!
I'm 67 years old, listen to the words, good aren't they!
You feel the guitar solo in your soul…incredible
So it’s a guitar soulo
@@redreuben5260 good one
Let me start by saying this year is the year I've been listening to this album for 50 years.
You mentioned random noises. There is never anything random with Pink Floyd. This album particularly is crafted to the Nth degree, an absolute masterpiece, one of the best albums ever made.
The lyrics mean more and more the older you get. In my 60s now and they mean more to me now than they ever have in the past.
You really need to listen to the whole album from the beginning to the end.
Album is 50 years old and still better then 99% of stuff nowadays
I just listened to the full album as I was going to sleep the other night. I used to listen every night going to sleep when I was 14. I'm 59 now. It's still just as brilliant as it was then.
Same here, fell asleep many a night listening to this. Best album ever.
You need to listen to this entire album continuously. "Dark Side of the Moon" spent over 14 YEARS on the Billboard Top 200 Album charts, and there was a reason.
You have the whole album in one shot. I've had this album since it came out in the 70' s. Admittedly, we were stoned most of the time but, I always there's a world before Dark Side of the Moon and, a whole new one after! It's a classic. David Gilmores guitar and vocals are legendary.
I first heard this 50 years ago, unlike me it has never aged. The older you get the more meaningful the lyrics become. Listen to the whole album without a break through headphones, mind blowing.
Just over 50 years for me, but yes, you are correct.
I have had good headphones. I honestly prefer to listen through my Denon pre amp into a 225 watt per channel Carver amp into my infinity rs1b and rs3b speakers. Not only do you hear it but you also feel it too.
5:10… This Album and Pink Floyd are Perfect!
Hey Michael, try being 72!! I've listened to this song for 50 years, and it never ceases to move me. This sure is one of the Floyd greats. There is a reason why Dark Side of the Moon was a top selling album for 20 years, 50th anniversary this year.
Just think Pink Floyd was working on this Masterpiece, when the Beatles were singing I want to hold your hand.😀
This was after the Beatles. The producer, Alan Parsons, worked on the Beatles’ Abbey Road and Let It Be albums before he produced / sound engineered Dark Side of the Moon.
It would be a great point - if only it was true!
They are a decade apart brother man 😂
Floyd members would have grown up listening to the Beatles.
You need to listen to whole albums at one go. The songs just run together and cannot be listened to in isolation.
Check out the LIVE version of Time from the PULSE CONCERT.
1) One does not 'listen' to Floyd, one Experiences them.
2) Never, NEVER interrupt a David Gilmour solo. There are laws against that. (Or there SHOULD be.)
Your voyage has just begun - enjoy the ride.
I was in high school when this album was released. No other record comes close since.your review was great!!!
I am 71...I saw dark side of the moon performed at Wembley hall London ..many years ago...the music and the incredible quality of their sound system was just something out of this world..tripping without drugs....Ive never had anything repeat that experience
thats what you call a perfect concept album, no other album comes close.
I bought Dark side of the moon when it was released when i was a young man, all these years later still gives me a massive buzz, the day i bought it from the local record store i rushed home to put it on the turntable, i was totally blown away.
The song of songs you will have to eventually see to believe... Pink Floyd Comfortably Numb Pulse Tour '94... one of the best guitar solos on the planet not to mention a lighted stage show that'll wish you were there, not to be confused with Wish You Were Here lolol \m/
The thing about songs like this is the fact that unlike records now, there's hardly any repetitive lyrics (modern songs is nothing but repetitive lyrics)and the music is inventive and thought provoking
This album will NEVER age
"Is this someone running or a clock?" after introducing the song called Time and hearing clock sounds for 30+ seconds! 😵💫🤪
A masterpiece no doubt.
Nothing in the past few decades comes close, IMHO.
Have you listened to Pink Floyd, Another Brick In The wall. Year 1979, wickedly awesome while laying on floor, black lights, strobe lights, stoned with group of friends. Acid really played with your mind with this song.
nice reaction to an epic song that will age like fine wine. wine that makes you seriously contemplate life choices as you age, that is. also, NEVER STOP IN THE MIDDLE OF A GILMOUR SOLO!
( The time is gone ... The song is over ..........!
So poignant as we get older and reflect on all the things we still want to do.
I had two albums when I lived in Mammoth Mountain, this one and "Yellow Brick Road".... WARPED BOTH OF THEM!!!!!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
You ask 'how is this possible' ? It's quite simple - musicianship.
A couple of years ago I was really struggling with recovery after a major operation. I was in hospital, in pain, frustrated and not doing well. I put DSOTM on my headphones and just laid back on top of my bed. I don’t know how many times the album replayed but I dropped into a sleep and would wake occasionally at different parts of different songs, then submerge again. At the end of this phase I found I was in a much better head space and felt a lot more positive about my predicament. It was all fine from then on. This was the changing point in my recovery.
This is from the greatest album ever released. Check the numbers for the album, "Dark Side of the Moon".
If you want to hear a song that puts everything in life in order listen to, "Eclipse". It's on the other side of the same album.
50 years old record, and still amazing
There is Pink Floyd and then there is everybody else.
Jumping right into it without any background gives one a clear, unbiased mind to hear the song with. This came out in High School for me so been listening long time. Funny to watch you figure it out. I agree, it could be Horror Movie music ... "what's coming next?" Enjoy the rest of Pink Floyd.
I was so lit every time i listened to this album, i still have it. Listen to the album in the dark with headphones on. Thank me later. Make good memories now to enjoy later.
This song broke me when I “heard” it for the first time.
Always, Pink Floyd set the mood in the intro... take your time to put yourself in a 'receiving position' and enjoy.
This is a great album. These are some of the greatest musician EVER! I remember when this album first came out, we listened to it constantly. :D However, it is meant to be listen to from the 1st song to the last song. Get yourself comfortable, lay back, close your eyes, and just feel the music. You'll love it.
Another great British band!
I got one word that best describes Pink Floyd...Trippy!...and I mean that in a good way. Their music carries you to another fantastical place. Hard to believe but their music sounds even better live, especially the Pulse concert. WOW! you gotta check it out.
"Who thinks of putting this stuff together?" You just captured the essence of the genius of Pink Floyd.
As the narrator in Fight Club said, "This is your life, and it's ending one minute at a time."
It might help to know that almost all PF music is meant to be listened to high AF !! 😊❤
You need to shut up while listening .. and be off your face Ha ha
Started listening at 12 and just turned 61 and I still love these guy's... the older you get the more sense the lyrics make i bought animals at 14 and it is still my favorite and no matter what mood im in PF is always the right choice of music...♡
Being old enough to remember when this Masterpiece came out (I remember where and in whose company I was), I can certainly attest to "Every year is getting shorter"!
At a certain point, you've done enough for yourself. Then it only matters what you can do for others - for that will carry on through generations. Got 20 years still, will manage something...
Listen to the whole album, as intended. If you're human, 'The Great Gig In The Sky' will give you goosebumps - and maybe more.
Ok, Son. The name of the song is Time. What you heard in the very beginning is a bunch of clocks, followed by a bunch of alarms. Then the intro proper begins with a metronome mimicking a heartbeat. The ultimate clock and a recurring theme throughout the entire album, which I recommend you listen to from start to finish as was intended. This is not a collection of individual songs. It’s a symphony in which every piece is a movement that flows into the next. As to who thinks this up? Geniuses. Actual musical geniuses. The whole album is a masterpiece and this song in particular is the Magnum Opus of David Gilmore’s guitar virtuosity. And that’s not bongos. Those are finely tuned toms.
best song ever made!
Most people get hooked on Pink Floyd for the music. Once you LISTEN to the lyrics, it goes to a WHOLE DEEPER LEVEL!
MY GENERATION , sat in a quiet space toked into submission glued to descent headphones and let it all wash over you. Yep it certainly was “Another Time”, it was a stoners paradise, Ah they tell me!!!.
3 verses, 3 stages of life. The epiphany was right here to see in your reaction. Pink Floyd have always done this and there music will continue to do so forever. Enjoy then and a listen to all of Dark Side Of The Moon as it was originally intended as a concept album will take you on the journey. Great Gig In The Sky is another game changer
Hi, In 1977, I used the words for this song for my high school English oral examination, and got a standing ovation. Today at 63 years of age they still fill me trepidation, I make a point of listening to this song every year around this time (beginning of December) as I take stock of the year just past and plan for the one coming.
