  • Your parents kept you from the 20 best years of music since Beethoven.
  • I"m 60, and I know there's a lot of folks just like me doing exactly what I'm doing, watching this kid in incredulity, and laughing at how unintentionally hilarious he is. Talk about "you don't know what you don't know." I'm here for every minute of this.

    At the end: "Is this a British band?" Beyond funny.
  • no samples, no autotune, anything like that — welcome to the rabbithole of TRUE music)

    "I wonder what this sounds like live." Oh, Grasshopper. Continue down the path.

    Welcome to our era of music. Edit: “No one told you when to run, you missed the starting gun!” Classic lyrics
  • @77archibald
    No auto corrected vocals or instruments. Proper musicians making innovative, unique, groundbreaking music. You're obviously not aware of just how massive this album and Pink Floyd were, and still are.
  • @ab7rs
    On "time" you talked right through some of the most moving lyrics in classic rock. I didn't know anyone could do that.😢

    I love how Pink Floyd doesn’t always jump into their songs…they build up the anticipation then lock in.
  • The song, "The Great Gig In the Sky" is about the process of dying. Listen to it again, and consider what some consider "the five stages of dying" - denial, anger, bargaining, depression and acceptance. The singer, Clare Torry, expresses these emotions in her wails, rages, and gradual soft tones, before she eventually releases herself to the great gig in the sky. Listen to that piece again in that context, and it will make a whole lot of sense. She "freestyled" her part, just expressing her emotions.

    Alan Parsons was the sound engineer on this album and later went on to form The Alan Parsons Project....

    "wow, that kind of just took a twist I wasn't ready for" yes, much like life... which is what this album is about

    The laziness of slide guitar is what makes slide guitar feel so beautiful. Cruising in and out of beat and pitch and then resolving is Pure Magic
  • @socksumi
    "A song doesn't end then another song starts"... You have just defined progressive rock of which this is a textbook example.
  • The snare towards the end of Time is most definitely not off time. It was a way to introduce a slower tempo. Towards the end of a bar whilst the band is still playing at the same tempo Nick Mason comes in late on the snare and is now in the tempo that the band now changes to. This album was in the top 100 charts for twelve years and it is still a very big seller.
  • "That snare was way off"..... It's called feel. And Nick Mason is a feel merchant extraordinaire.

    "Whoooah" is probably the most common uttered expression amongst "Dark Side of The Moon" first timers.
