First Time Hearing Pink Floyd

- I WAS NOT EXPECTING THAT!! This song blew my mind! The Lyrics are unreal and the musicality was NOT what I was expecting. I've always seen people wearing Pink Floyd t shirts and Pink Floyd posters and Pink Floyd Art but never heard the Pink Floyd music before. So here is me an Irish Girl Reacting to Pink Floyd For the First Time
Ticking away the moments that make up a dull day
Fritter and waste the hours in an offhand way
Kicking around on a piece of ground in your hometown
Waiting for someone or something to show you the way
Tired of lying in the sunshine, staying home to watch the rain
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
The 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
Home, home again
I like to be here when I can
And when I come home cold and tired
It's good to warm my bones beside the fire
Far away across the field
The tolling of the iron bell
Calls the faithful to their knees
To hear the softly spoken magic spells

Listen to eclipse then comfortable numb in that order its a good story
Hello Diane, how about listening & reacting to the Pink Floyd song Learning to Fly? It came out (I think) sometime in the 1980s. Most excellent song and video as well. Eclipse/Brain Damage is another excellent song.
I can't believe you've never listened to Pink Floyd.
Howdy from eastern North Carolina!
What! You didn't listen listen to "Money'. I hope you did after you created this.
That's why I love Floyd. Everytime you think you get it they surprise you again. Always sounds fresh, even a billion listens later.
Definitely an album band. Listening to individual songs by them is like reading different chapters from different books in different orders at different times. You wouldn't want to watch the end of a movie first.
Dark Side of the Moon begins with a heartbeat, then a soundscape of all that is to come in the album and in life and in death. The dream of life.
Then a SCREAM, before your birth.
You are born and thrust into the world, told to 'Breathe; breathe in the air. Don't be afraid to care ..."
You get the idea.
The album is a movie.
A song is just a snapshot of a much grander and deeper album narrative.
Floyd changes lives.
No joke.
They stand outside of any genre and exist in their own class altogether.
Enjoy your journey.
*Edit
Though I'll still watch you react to individual songs and not hold it against you.
I'd recommend the usual
'Shine On You Crazy Diamond'
'Comfortably Numb'
'Us and Them'
'Wish You Were Here'
'The Wall'
'Echoes'
It's a looooong list.
Also worth reacting to those songs live at the 'Pulse' concert from 1994.
Well, be aswell doing my album list.
In no particular order.
'Dark Side of the Moon'
'The Wall'
'Wish You Were Here'
'Echoes'
'Animals'
'Division Bell'
Decent start lol.
Pink Floyd - The Great Gig in the Sky (with guest vocalist Clare Torry) will blow your mind😉
When you don't know how to put the experience of dieing into words you let Pink Floyd show you how it's best done😉
Listen to the whole album. They were masters at creating concept albums, where one song seamlessly merges into the other, creating a dramatic soundscape like very few bands before or since have achieved or surpassed. Hope you listen to more of this awesome band. Cheers!
Absolutley ! Listen to Marc. I whole heartedly agree!
I agree. I've listened to "Dark Side of the Moon" thousands of times since '73.
Best listened to through headphones, in a darkened room save for maybe a blacklight or lava lamp and some sort of incense burning.
I don't know why it is, but Floyd fans seem to need to mansplain how great the group is to everyone, but especially to women. I was never a huge fan of them myself.
@@joeterzio7175 To each their own.
Yassss! This comment right here!
This song hits me so hard, as I'm now 67 years old. The lyrics mean so much more than they did when I first listened to them.
Yes. Achingly so!
Same. Pink Floyd has been my favorite band (and DSOTM my favorite album) since I was in my teens, but I'm 40 now and the lyrics hit harder as I get older. There's a reason people never stop listening to this record.
I started smoking weed to this album:) ( but not because of this album)
Absobloodylutely
I'm 65 and I hear ya..
This album is 50 years old and still better than most music today!
All.
Got it wrong bud, not most but ALL
Nothing I’ve heard in the last 30+ year even comes close.
@@philipmorgan8230I am 67 now. A co-worker 11 years younger got me into 80's music that I would have passed by . But after the 80's music took a real dive . It is just manufactured sound with no soul . Sad .
All.
This LP was 50 years old on 1 march this year (2023). I bought it the first week of release and now, at 71+, this song resonates the more you hear it. Surely, the best album EVER.
Definitely one of them!, by the time I got to see them live, Roger had left the band but at least I can say I survived the "Rain Like Hell" show at Rice Stadium in Houston, if the power hadn't finally gone out, I think they would have kept on playing til every amp was dead., Early April 1994, hell of a show in a massive downpour.
When my dad heard this when I was in high school (must of been 2nd year) , it was one of the only modern rock records that he really LOVED.
No argument here.
Respect 🙏
The whole album is only 40 mins.. shorter than a TV episode these days, and it's so beautiful. Everyone should hear the whole thing at least once in their life.
I’m going to do that. Thanks!
With headphones a must
@@toddharris8441 Or a decent stereo, or get the SACD version and surround sound system
Edit: Screw the neighbors
With Sid, they had great songs. After Sid they had great albums.
But much like Lays potato chips, one is not enough.
This song is 50 years old.
Other than the fact that guitar solos aren't really done much anymore, nothing about it is dated. The message is timeless, the vocals and arrangement are epic... it's a masterful work of art.
I disagree! Guitar work like this is very much alive and active in a million bars, taverns, festivals.......The great guitar heroes of today are the people you hang out with, work with, live next to. Just your regular, everday normal folk. It is fucking fantastic how many great guitar players are out there.
This is so iconic it will never be dated.
released 1 March 1973. Recorded a few months earlier of course. I was 10 but I think I didn't discover it until four years later when "I Robot" was released and I heard it somewhere and researched what the same guy (Alan Parsons) had done before. And of course "Wish You Were Here" was out by then too. I also bought Kate Bush's "The Kick Inside" the instant it came out ... there's another connection there.
@@BruceHoult I was born in 1960. Our ears have walked a very simular path.
The guitar solos will stand up to anything ever produced since then, and frankly, have rarely been equaled or surpassed.
I had the immense pleasure of working for a rock promotion company in 1971-72, and sponsored two Pink Floyd concerts in Eugene, Oregon. I not only got to meet Roger Waters, David Gilmour, et al, but got to go back stage and eat and drink after the show was over… and they were arguing about one member missing one note, in a seven minute song … unbelievable precision and drive for perfection. Definitely a memory I will carry with me forever!!
I love seeing a younger person smile when they hear songs like this. It bridges the generations. Thanks Diane!
The older you get the more the lyrics mean.
This album is a masterpiece. 17 year old me, sat round a friend's house at 2am, in candle light, slightly drunk, the air heavy with weed smoke, had his life forever changed by this album. Give it a listen from start to finish. Profound and beautiful, snarky and heartbreaking in equal measure. Perfect.
Yes, my experience as well, this album changed my life as a seventeen year old head in 73 and has never been matched.
sadly yes
This song literally changed my life. Sitting on the hood of a '73 Celica cataclysmically stoned, as I always was at the time, listening to Dark Side (always Floyd, Zeppelin or Rush). The lyric "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" hit me like a sledgehammer,. I'd been listening to that lyric for close to 10 years, and life was slipping past more rapidly with each ounce I smoked. The next day I sold off all my weed and haven't been stoned since. That was 40 years ago. Now I'm comfortably retired and still love listening to Pink Floyd, esp. Time.
You me and a whole lotta other people! I was sitting on a 1972 skylark!
Yea, Always Zeppelin, Floyd and Rush.
Great story!
Comfortably retired or comfortably numb?
In truth, you don’t have to be a stoner to realise life has somehow slipped past you unnoticed. I keep thinking…where did it all go?
This Pink Floyd album, Dark Side of the Moon, ended up remaining on the charts for 741 weeks from 1973 to 1988. Definitely one of the best albums ever recorded. It's so good to see you climbing out from under your musical barrier rock, Diane! You've only touched the tip of the iceberg though!
Yes, but where to next? endless possibilities...
dabble a bit more here...maybe wish you were here or welcome to the machine.. then.. try to tackle the big one in one shot: Animals @@conmcgrath7174
Holy shit, I never knew it was on the charts that long. That is fucking insane.
@@JohnSmith-ys4nl From what I've heard, it would have continued but they changed how the charts worked. They wanted to rid the charts of older music to make it appear that the current music was more popular than it was.
Pink Floyd is not just a band.
Pink Floyd is an Experience...
Great reaction 😊
Girlfriend, this album Dark Side Of The Moon is the best album ever made. Hands Down. Full Stop. Mic Drop. You have to listen to the Whole Thing. Every song blends into the one following it. There are no spaces between the songs. And if you listen closely, you can hear a faint heart beat (thump thump, thump thump, thump thump) running in the background through the entire album!
It's almost a religious thing, listing to this album. The music spans the whole of the Human Experience. Time. Greed. War. Age. Madness. Death. And it summarizes it so well at the end. It may be that the rest of the Universe is "in tune", but not here. Here "the sun is eclipsed by the moon". We're living in the eclipse. See the Human Experience above.
On a lighter note, you must also do the Dark Side Of The Rainbow Experiment. That's where you play this album and The Wizard of Oz simultaneously. Look it up. Wow!
I'd have to say it's a tie with Sgt Pepper or Abbey Road, as the best album ever made.
@@DocRock71 not even. Those are "pop" music. Pink Floyd is in a different class...
It probably is the best album ever made but yet it's not even my favorite Pink Floyd album...as far as that Dark Side of the Rainbow thing, didn't really care for it. Don't need any distraction when i listen to DSOM. (I watched it sober and tripping, didn't make me change my opinion on it)
@@DocRock71 How about we settle for one of the best albums. By the time you reach this level of good, there really is no way to split them other than personal taste.
Agreed
When I was young this was just a good song by a great band.
Now that I’m middle aged with kids, this song leaves me in tears.
Ten years have got behind some of us more than once listening to these songs. They are timeless.
Great times!
and it is still a good song by a great band
It's so hard to believe this album was released 50 years ago. One of the most iconic albums of all time.
Dark Side of the Moon and The Wall are two of the most influential albums of all time, they created a generation of experimental musicians who carved entire new genres of music
This album hit #1 on the Billboard 200 and stayed on the charts for 950 total weeks. It is reportedly the tenth best selling album as currently reported. Pink Floyd is brilliant, diverse and totally original. Listen to this when you can afford to put all of your worries away and just focus on the music.
Dark Side of the Moon os one of the top 3 selling studio albums of all time. Thriller and Back in Black are the other 2.
967 weeks as of today.
@@petercena9497 Hey, thanks for the update assist, Peter!
I think it's actually the third highest selling album of all time, behind Michael Jackson's _Thriller_ and AC/DC's _Back in Black_.
In the U.S. Dark side of the Moon is listed at 15 million, but that certification was in 1998. If updated the correct total would be 21m u.s., over 50 million worldwide.
The entire album is a masterpiece. Great Gig in the Sky will blow you away.
All of the songs on the album have poignant lyrics that speak louder today than +40 years ago. Us and Them absolutely NAILS the current political polarizations across the globe.
Correct! Did you see that she picked up on the little bit of female harmony in Time? Wait until she hears GGITS. (Was that Clare Tory here too? Certainly sounds like her.)
@@ianwebb3496 Only mesmerizing from the original. Live is a different story, still good but not as mesmerizing.
@@grondinolaf agreed, the studio version is truely an amazing piece of music in any language, we could play it to aliens to explain human emotion,
@@dcmanuel7232 You sure got that right!! 🙄
My favorite Pink Floyd lyric ever:
Far away across the field
The tolling of the iron bell
Calls the faithful to their knees
To hear the softly spoken magic spells
Please tell us you listened to the whole album! One song is like reading one chapter of a novel. Literally designed to be heard as a 43 minute piece of music.
Dark Side of the Moon was on billboard top albums chart for 724 consecutive weeks, that's 14.5 years! And it returns to the list every Christmas. Also a wonderful gift for a new weed smoker.
🤣 yep 👌
ED starts today’s video and grabs our attention
As Diane’s channel enters a new dimension
Learning more about music was her intention
But now her mind is blown beyond comprehension
Woohoo!
@@DianeJennings Razz must be a Moody Blues fan.
I discovered Pink Floyd when I was about 11 years old. Changed my life - I had been raised on classical orchestral music, and had NO IDEA that rock could have the same level of power and emotional punch. To call my first listening of "Dark Side of the Moon" a revelation is to reveal the paucity of the English language. This was one of those moments when you know you are never again going to be the same person.
"The Wall" had a similar effect because it reached so deeply into my own situation and clarified so many things for me as a human being struggling with the chaos of my life at the time - the absent father, the struggle to conform, the desire to break free, the guilt, the depression...
This is music for the soul.
I have heard this hundreds of times and still have this same reaction every time❤😂
I challenge anyone to listen to this song after 40 years from there first listening and NOT be brought to tears.. Especially after " you missed the starting gun " WOAH!!
Remember that the composers of the past were the rockstars of their time. The great music is timeless. Happy musical discoveries to you, Diane.
This came from a time where the entire album was designed to be listened to from beginning to end. It's actually an entire piece of art, in acts, flowing from one to the other.
and this is why it's one of my favorite vinyl albums in my collection.
Few did that as well as Floyd!
The beauty of this song and all their music is so timeless. It never goes out of style!
There are many bands and songs you need to check out; but since this is Pink Floyd and we're on the subject of, I strongly recommend you check out their video for the song "Comfortably Numb" live from 'Pulse' which is absolutely incredible. The guitar at the end is known to make people cry because it is just so good and beautiful. I'm serious. It is that good and may be, arguably, the greatest live performance ever captured.
I was fortunate to see them perform this whole album live in surround sound in Pittsburgh 1973. This was quite the experience, still memorable 50 years later. It was also played under the stars; the venue had a retractable roof.
So I did in Paris 1973.... my first concert. I was 14 years old!
You're a LEGEND🤘
@@endapian you're a wanna be
The Civic Arena!
Was it an igloo? 😄
Pink Floyd was incredible. Listen to more of their music, Ms Diane!
I will!
@@DianeJennings If you like Pink Floyd, find some of the songs from Blue Oyster Cult. Similar, but definitely different.
Diane, I’ve been. Pink Floyd fan for most of my life (will hit 60 this year). Welcome to some if the musical world of my favorite band. Another great song that will help you understand the band is Echoes from the album Meddle….it is almost 23 minutes long and is quite the sonic adventure!
@@DianeJennings Concur. I'd recommend The Wall personally because that's my favorite album, but it helps to know a little bit about the band before you do.
If you do another Floyd, then Comfortably Numb (from Pulse Live).
This might be my favorite song of all time. The lyrics, the production and the musicianship is all top notch. As others have said, Dark Side of the Moon is a masterpiece. Listen to the whole album when you can. Its fantastic.
Another group who's music and show was ALWAYS beyond words. Saw them twice when this album came out!! We would buy whole rows of seats and invite friends to the concerts. Would love to return to that time period!
We must protect this lass at all costs
Who me?! Yes protect me… wait where have you been all these years?
Definitely do not let cancel culture get ahold it, because they will find a way to complain about it.
@@DSWilkes her taste in music isn’t why she must be protected lol she’s great
@@DSWilkes From other comments it looks like the original, more complete video was copyright claimed, and Editor Diane butchered it editing it to something that would be able to stay up. So it wasn't "censored" or "canceled" it was edited down to change it enough so it was more "Fair Use".
Now, if Editor/Writer/Producer DIane knew as much as other people who might have learned what they did through hard won experiences, could she have done a better job of presenting the song without butchering her original video quite so much? Yes. But this is her FIRST TIME, and she probably was really brutal about it, just to get the video back up.
I already know how the song goes, the chopped up nature of the edits is unfortunate, and it would be better to see her react to the entire song, but she's trying, yo.
@@DSWilkes if she were to play the whole song chances are very good the copyright police would block it.
One of the very best albums ever in the history of music.
The BEST.
The GOAT imho
@Myamdane - No they're not flea bitten nannies... 🤑🤑
Take that back...
The best
Sorry for the echoes (ha!) but yes .... The Best!!!
I just cannot imagine what it would be like listening to the absolute gods that are Pink Floyd for the first time. I started playing them in my bedroom at 15/16& I’m 65 now!!!
Pink Floyd will be played forever like Mozart
young people are discovering the greatness, talent& genius that walked this earth in the 70’s, we were blessed those of us who grew up with this ❤
Undoubtedly one of the greatest albums ever made in the history of music.
I have an immense appreciation for the artistry of Pink Floyd. I have suffered from depression since I was 13 (so, 40 years,) though, and I found a long time ago that their painfully sweet/sweetly painful lyrics are too much for me to bear more than one song now and then…their genius is undeniable, and Nick Mason’s drums are astonishing!
All love for you in your struggles, sister.
thank you for calling out Nick Mason’s drumming. Incredibly tasteful and just flows. Never interfering with the music or depth of the lyrics.
One of my favorite bands of all time.
Hurrah
Comfortably Numb is a must listen Diane
This album is the greatest to have ever been produced, in my book. And to think that the band still had the creative juices to go on to produce Wish You Were Here is unbelievable.
Love your reactions to music from my younger days, 70's & 80's, and your beauty isn't easy to look past either. Keep up the good work. Looking forward to your next reaction
Just in case no one told you yet, Pink Floyd's albums are 'concept albums'. Much like chapters in a books, or scenes from a movie, each song is part of the whole story. They often segue into each other, and create a tapestry sound and emotion. My point is that these tracks were meant to be experienced in sequence. I understand how impractical this is for a reaction channel, but it's something you will be hearing a lot, so I thought I'd get the ball rolling. ;-]
Some channels react to album sides, which is great. Others record the whole side, but release it as individual tracks, while being careful to do so in sequence. And others don't care at all and do whatever gets them the clicks. It's up to you to decide what kind of experience you prefer.
As for drug use, it is said that one does not need marijuana to experience Pink Floyd.
However, one does need Pink Floyd to *_truly_* experience marijuana. ;-]
[That bit of wisdom at the end is void where prohibited by law. ...Yeah, just kidding! lol]
Thanks, wasn’t aware.❤
A story for you as an animal lover....Years ago, one of my employees found two tiny newborn orphaned squirrels and brought them to work. He named them Pink and Floyd and raised them until they could be turned over to wildlife rescue.
Awww cuteness 🐿️
Sadly, my cats won't agree to me doing things like that. Of course, my job doesn't leave me the time for it either.
Everything about this track is magic, I have listened to this album ever since it was released.
I really like how she doesn't stop the songs and comment!
Totally going to check more of her content!
Super thumbs up 👍
I was a teenager the first time I heard this opus; I have worn out three vinyl records of this recording since then. You should have attended the stadium show, it was great.
An audiophile worthy stereo of sufficient wattage, speakers with oomph to penetrate the body sonicly while faithfully reproducing the music; you need to feel it. I also suggest a recliner.
And perhaps an herbal supplement?
"no one told you when to run, you missed the starting gun..."
I've listened to this song hundreds of times. Still hits me like a ton of bricks every time.
Staring at Diane's pensive face while looking at a pyramid. What could be better?
She needs to listen to the whole album. She would understand the whole emotional journey since every song is connected to eachother like one 45min lifetime.
I listened to this album over and over when I bought it back in '85. A masterpiece.
You’re really good at this! For various reasons I don’t exactly remember my first time hearing this but it feels like it would have been something like that. Love that you let it play through entirely the first time. Cute dog! Cheers!
This song still gives me goosebumps... Nothing like mellowing out and listening to Floyd....☺
I agree that Dark Side of the Moon should be listened to, at least once, as a full album.
.....might I suggest being stoned? I haven't smoke weed in decades, but listening to this for the first time could be a good reason to start....again
I'm old now, but this song hit me at a young age. Don't waste the time we have waiting "for that starting gun".
very possibly the best album ever recorded, due to the fact its meaning changes as you age with the album.the whole album is a brilliant masterpiece about the human experience.
Thank you for sharing this beautiful moment with us. My big sister died a little over a year ago, and this brought back memories of her listening to this with me after it released back when i was a real little guy. Thank you for bringing up good memories.
This entire Dark Side of the Moon album is really one piece of music. At some point (even if you never film it) you really need to just listen to all of it front to back. The individual tracks are all good, but it's even more powerful to listen to the whole thing at once.
Front to back….haha. She won’t understand that.
This is great stuff. Takes me back to those days in the woods of southern Virginia. Wow.
The best chill music of all time. Dave Gilmour bending those strings is never disappointing.
Rock On Irish Girl!!! One of my all time favorite albums, I wore out a couple copies on vinyl. This album turns 50 years old on March 1st this year. In college this album was always a good one for doing engineering math like calculus and differential equations. You should listen to the whole disk straight through. So glad you're doing videos that interest you as well as entertain us. YT algorithm can Póg mo Thóin. At the end, Chewie tripping in the chair made me spit out my beer LOL-ing.
Well, you certainly picked a banger to start with. Let me tell you, this song, that struck me as a realization in my youth, only gets truer with the years and leaves me in tears nowadays. Pink Floyd are masters at setting an audio scene, often using the minimal amount of notes to make sure you get the full effect of each tonal change. Breathtaking.
Great Song Diane! You really need to hear this whole album….It is a masterpiece. Every song is very deep, always have the lyrics in front of you. I’ve been listening to the album for over 40 years, it doesn’t get old…..Me and my 20 yr old daughter have matching tattoos of the album cover….
I was born in the 60's... Pink Floyd has been with me all my life,I recognized them around 13yrs old... many songs from Floyd bring tears to my eyes.. not necessarily sad tears... simply Emotional tears.
My number 1 favorite album of all time. I think you can watch their concert of this album on video. I think CZcams carries it. Good choice Diane! Expand your universe. Now you must hear the entire album as it gets better! 🚀
I listened to this album on 8track then cassette but when The cd came out and I listened with headphones it was like a new experience. Still one of my favorite albums of all time
What a sweet and genuine reaction. Welcome to the amazing world of Pink Floyd 🎸🇬🇧🎸
Pink Floyd’s album “The Dark Side of the Moon” sync’s up almost perfect to the movie The Wizard Oz. Start playing the music at the MGM lions 3rd roar at the beginning of the movie.
Oooh that’s interesting

Pink Floyd is a must listen rabbit hole for any serious lover or appreciator of music. The album this song is from is Dark Side of the Moon, and to truly appreciate it, it must be listened in its entirety without stopping, or at least going in song order, as most songs flow into the next one. Pink Floyd is going strong over 50 years on, and every new generation has its new, lucky fans! As you can see from just this one song, they are musical Legends for a reason.
Seen pink Floyd live twice. Mind blowing!
I'd love to be able to listen to this album again for the first time. It's truly a masterpiece.
First "Time" - I see what you did there. What a wonderful song. Truly valued as part of my life even.
Nothing like blowing a good joint and listening to this and The Wall. Complex music teamed with amazing themes and laced with complex lyrics.... I an 56 and been listening to Pink Floyd since 1980 ..... I still find things in the music I never heard before
You don't need to "trip balls" to appreciate Pink Floyd. In fact, they are able to create that vibe on their own, which is just amazing. I've been listening to them since I was 12. Please listen to more, and maybe actually listen to one of their albums in its entirety. I have never known anyone who hasn't felt their vibe, but it's not going to happen after one song. But it will happen and you will find so much peace, love, and understanding when we you listen to more. I promise.
The BEST comment here! Those words are sooooo true. For me The Wall is the best "trip" I ever took!
Agreed.I've listened to them both high and sober over decades. They are that rare band whose songs can make you feel a mind-expanding stoned-ness even if you're straight while listening. Dark Side, The Wall, Animals - brilliant.
This was definitely unexpected but glad you enjoyed it. Hopefully it won't get claimed. 🤞
It already did but that was always going to happen I knew
@@DianeJennings really?! Even with all of the editing and reaction?! That was a lot of extra work
@@LindaC616 Yea the record labels don't play games....Which to me makes ZERO sense to me as it exposes some people who may never have heard the music and may be intrigued and go buy an album, or Hell even a single on the iTunes machine....
@cornfedjuggalo I see some channels that are nothing except two people under 25 reacting to songs that have been around for forty years "for the first time". I wonder how they make money then
@@LindaC616 I think they do it knowing it will be claimed for the added subscribers who they may get....It goes back to the exposure, the channel may get people who wouldn't normally come across their channel viewing and possibly subscribing....
You made me cry... Tears of joy.
To watch your face light up listening to THIS epic musical journey was such a COOL experience.... Especially when you notice the brilliance in the lyrics, as I am a poet and lyrics are at the top of the list in whether I will like a song or not.
Would love to be sitting next to you and handing you music that I think would blow your little innocent mind.
This band got me through College back in early 70’s…especially Dark Side of Moon❤️☘️
I love Pink Floyd, my greatest sadness though is my mum was also very into them, and I was never interested in her music until a few years after she passed. Now I'll never get to tell her how much I love them, this song particularly makes me tear up because of that and getting older myself (even though I'm only 38!)
I’d like to think she knows. But never forget she’s with you every time you listen to Floyd, and that’s an amazing gift.
At 54 I can tell you that RIGHT NOW is the prime of your life. Enjoy the next ten years!
You stopped too soon! The voice you loved explodes into one of the most amazing solos I’ve ever heard. Listen to the album all the way through, you’ll love it!
It’s a different singer!
An album people will be discovering for decades too come, Pink Floyd will live forever
i give you a lot of credit this year Diane. Before you had jokey videos of various topics,but i love that you decided to listen to music that is old but new to you
Been a big fan of Pink Floyd for 45+ years. Awesome band.
So... now you know why this is one of the best selling albums of all time spending 966 weeks on the charts. I would recommend having a good sandwich some yummy snacks and listening to the entire album with your head phones on. 😁
Loved your reaction Diane! The whole album of Dark Side of the Moon is a trip. Been listening to it since it came out.
Watching Diane react to Music i grew up with is i imagine what it would be to take your Children to Disneyland for the first time and watching their Joy from the experience
Pretty sure this album holds the record for being in the top 100 for the most years in a row!!So happy that you liked it. Don't forget the "Wish You Were Here" album as well.
Such a timeless classic.
My favourite album of all time. I remember waiting for it to come out, and then proudly displaying it under my arm as I went home. Over 50 years ago. That song has resonance now that I'm 68.
80's rock is awesome, I love it, went to high school on it, saw it on the just-launched MTV, but the period 1967-1973 is the most explosive burst of creativity popular music has ever and will ever see. Choose ANY year therein, listen to ANY of the Top Ten rock songs of that year, and prepare to have your mind blown and your face smiled!
Greatest band ever!!! The masters of heavy and mellow at the same time!!!
One of my favorite bands!!!
Hooray!
1974 Hampton Roads coliseum, Virginia .......... I was there, Dark Side of the Moon tour. My first time hearing Pink Floyd, I was blown away. Their show was amazing show of lights and sound.
Best reaction ever. I can attest to tripping balls and Pink Floyd is a must for all. Stay awesome 🥰
This album (Dark Side of the moon) spent the longest time on the charts than any other album in history from March 1973 until April 1988 over 15 straight years on the Billboard 200.... crazy.
I’ve heard that as long there are college kids and marijuana, that album will sell.
That was SUCH a fertile era of great music.
The essential thing to realize about Pink Floyd is that they are basically an electrified jazz band with frequent forays into the blues / rock & roll.
When I introduced this LP to a suite-mate in 1973, he listened to it so often that it wore out. He bought me a new one to replace. Probably one of the best start to finish albums ever recorded. And you are correct, Diane, trippin' balls and listening to this music with headphones cannot be beat.
I love the bass playing in this song. The lyrics almost make me wish I could start my life over.
Love that you enjoyed the band! Might I recommend “The Great Gig in the Sky” by Pink Floyd. The vocal solo is FANTASTIC!
those vocals are incredible
Coming back from Europe in 1978, I was stuck on the side of the Thames for three days, across from the Battersea Powerplant, which was feature on the cover of their "Animals" album. They were so very good and creative.
Nena, from the '80s, in Germany was one of my favorites, check 99 Red Balloons. Although in the original, they were just balloons, they were always pictured as RED for some reason.
Hope you and Chewey are having a GREAT WEEK.
They had to change it some way for the English version. "Luftballon" is three syllables, while the English "balloon" is only two. In order to make it scan with the music they had to add something. "Red" fit the bill.
@@tarmaque It's sad how few people are aware that the original version is the German one.
@@Razmoudah I remember a day (don't you dare call me old!) when MTV played both version. In the United States! Weird.
@tarmaque I didn't have cable until I was in college, so although I lived through the tail end of those days, I never saw it myself.
@@Razmoudah I was 14 when MTV launched in 1981, and I remember staying up late to watch the launch. The good ol' days.
"Thought I had something more to say" What an understatement.
