Pink Floyd expert here. Don't let people put you down for not doing the whole album. Most of us understand you have to play by KZread's rules. That said I would split it up with one song at a time but the last three do as one listen. So end with my favorite Any colour you like and brain damage/eclipse. After this you will want to move into Wish you were here then Animals then The Wall. That four album arc is unbelievable but it also shows the band changing and unfortunately falling apart.

Personally, I think 'Time' and 'Great Gig' are effectively one track, too. It's always a disappointment, to me, when reactors cut at the end of Time, just as the opening sound of Great Gig appears. ... and then I hear she's already done Time! Yet another few minutes of life I'll never get back! 🤷🏼‍♂️😔

Sounds like something a poser want a be would say.

You don't need to react to the whole album, and people shouldn't expect that. But once you finish things up, you owe it to yourself to carve out some time on a hammock between two trees and go from start to finish. It is a unique, masterful ride, especially uninterrupted, and at least for me, it takes me to places and memories like no other album.

And listening to the album as a whole allows you to appreciate the echoes and call-backs it contains. For example, the melody of “Breathe” is the same melody as the final “Home, home again…” section of “Time”.

It doesn't cut short if you're listening to the album it very smoothly & quickly transitions into the next song which is "on the Run"!

This 'Greatest Album Ever' really needs to be listen to all at once, it's a complete 'trip'

This song has the longest silent intro of any classic rock song. Time is my favorite.

One of the best albums ever created hands down. Time is so worthy of all its praise, the solo is so hypgnotic. Us and Them, however, is my favorite from the album. The intro is so freaking sublime and romantic...man so many memories with this album, mind altering substances or not 😊

These songs don't 'end' they transition into each other seamlessly. which is why it was suggested you listen to the album, or at least do it side one and side two.

every time , when you listen to Pink Floyd i see the moment of sadness in your eyes ,then i see how you shut it deep inside ! wish you more happiness

Happy 4/20 Lilly Jane!! Great reaction. This album is a true masterpiece.

I loved watching your reaction, I flashed back to my first time listening to the album when it first came out in 1973.

The first part of the song is entitled "Speak to Me" and after you hear Clare Torrey screaming, the song segues into "Breathe" and then finally into "On the Run"

Thanks for reacting. I am old now and recall my teen years listening to Great Gig in the sky and my late Mother being so disturbed. Time is a highlight but each track is gold. It is the process of listening to a whole album entirely that transports you in time and space. Enjoy.

The bit I love about Breathe is the fact that in the quick chord sequence before the singing starts there is a chord that Rick Wright slipped in that he remembered working out after listening to A Kind of Blue by Miles Davies purely because he didn't want to be boring and use a 'standard' chord sequence. Not sure I can pick a favourite DSOTM track, it will vary according to mood, but Time's up there for its message and solo, the way Money goes from 7 to 4 for the solo and back to 7 again, Gig is astonishing, and the last 3 tracks are amazing.

It's always a pleasure to hang out with you and my two favorite bands, Pink Floyd and Nightwish. As with Nightwish, there is no favorite Pink Floyd song for me. I love them all equally.

The Great Gig In The Sky A beautiful composition without lyrics about death. It starts with realization then the battle to fight it off and ending with coming to terms with it and succumbing..... 🔥🔥🔥🔥

The look of uncertainty on your face when you first started the track, which then turned to a beaming smile as Breathe came in was a joy to behold

That first minute of the album is basically an entire lifetime from birth to death. Heartbeat at the front is supposed to resemble from within the womb and follow you through life... screams at the end are the end of life.

@Yaktahbay

Жыл бұрын

My take has always been that the heartbeat is pre-birth, the screams are birth, "Breathe" is kind of an introduction/synopsis of what to expect from life, then "On The Run" and "Time" depict adulthood and the frantic yet meaningless march toward death, with "The Great Gig In The Sky" wrapping up the story.

@@Yaktahbayyeah that’s correct. When the album was created it was on vinyl and songs 1-5 were the A-side. Then money song six kicks off the b-side of the album. A totally different message. When I first heard it I never considered the fact that it was recorded on vinyl. So I couldn’t understand why you would have a song about death and dying and then immediately shift into money

Hard to pick a favorite. The whole album is Great, one songs adds to the other. Been listening to them way back in 1973, and have saw them twice. What a TRIP. (Oh by the way, I'm 74 and have been listening to Pink Floyd, and any Hard Rock or Metal group and still party. Been to over 100 concerts, and just about seen them all.)

Love your reaction. Thanks 👍 Love Pink Floyd!

Beautiful, honest reaction. I've listened to Floyd millions of times, but watching your reactions is like listening for the first time. keep up the good work, I can't wait to see more.

LJ...for 50 years people have been doing EXACTLY what you've done firing one up and lettin' it rip....this is the quintessential HEADPHONES album, you'll pick up a lot more nuances. This is one of those timeless albums....and also happens to be one of the handful of releases that I personally like to run through new stereo components to really test them out....rock on Chica...

This album , is one of those albums that you have to listen the whole way through without stopping . Well , basically , that's how all their albums are .

My favorite off this album is Brain Damage and I love how it flows right into Eclipse for what in my opinion is a very satisfying ending to the album. I suggest listening to them both together as combined it's only about 5 min of music. Cheers!

Just the perfect one to do on 420. Like, light em up and mellow out dudes. The colors man, the colors. ✌️

@@robertcartier5088 Sorry - of course it's a mistake. Unfortunately, I don't speak English well and I use a translator to help me. And unfortunately, he sometimes makes a mistake.

The 'Dark Side Of The Moon' was released on March 1, 1973. It's been over 50 years. Many things can be said about this album and many definitions can be made. But I think the common thing is that this album made people "think" in those years. Thinking about some of the things they thought for the first time (because in those years the music was more direct.) I got this album a few years after it was released, and I was just a kid at the time. And my perspective on life has changed. And at the end of the day, I don't regret it. This album contains artistic masterpieces such as 'Time' and 'Us and Them'. But you can reach the bridge that connects them all with 'Brain Damage' and 'Eclipse' at the end of the album. When you come to the end, please listen to them together and make sure you are not the same as when you started 🙃

I think, "time", "the great gig in the sky", "us and them" and "any coulour you like" are my favorite Songs on Dark Side of the Moon. Greetings from Germany

You’re right the sound of time is prevalent through the whole album that’s what ties it together

From the all the great songs that contains this amazing album, my favorite is probably Us and Them, which I find absolutely beautiful and a timeless masterpiece. Thanks for the reaction video 😘

You are obviously one of us! Love your posters and your PF reactions. Please do more!

My personal favorite on this album is Us And Them, look forward to your reaction to that one.

I agree with doing a deep dive on this album, back in the day it was the standard to try out a new, high end stereo system with it. Amazing album, it still sells to this very day and new fans of Floyd happen all the time. Rock On! 🎵🎸🎤🎹🎶

Pink Floyd's albums are concept albums. All of the songs are connected in their message. You should listen to the whole album, all of the songs in order.

the songs are great, masterpieces even, but the album needs to be heard from start to finish to really feel it's power and grace. heard this album when i was 17, drunk, at a friends house, late night, they're all high, weed smoke in the air, lights off, incense burning: i was never the same again. i'm 48 now and it's never lost any of it's abilty to move me...

Pink Floyd Animals is a great album that needs attention and of course their first album Piper at the gates of dawn. Its an album like no other !

This is my all time favorite album, EVER! From start to finish, this is what I grew up on, both parents were big into classic rock. It's the best concept album of all time!

A masterpiece, hands down!!!

the reason Floyd fans say listen to the whole album is the fact that all the songs seamlessly into the next continuing the story.

Happy 420. The whole album is a masterpiece. To pick a favorite.......Us and Them.

This song is basically about Birth, from your mothers scream during childbirth, to your first breath, and the need to be loved, and on into life.

I always feel like i am floating in space during this song.

After you get done reacting to this album, you Really need find the time to Shut off the lights and listen to it from Beginning to End!! IT'S Life Changing....

I haven't looked through all your other videos yet, but, definitely Great Gig in the Sky. Absolutely, hands down.

The Dark Side of the Moon is my favourite album of all time. Blew me away when I first heard it as a kid in the early 80's though some of the lyrics are quite painful to listen to now I'm older on some of the tracks especially 'Time' on Side 1. As others have said, when you get a moment listen to the album all the way through and it will make more sense.

I love the entire album, and really appreciate your new reaction to it. My favorites that go together are the ending: Brain Damage and Eclipse.

“Long you live and high you fly, but only if you ride the tide” I’ve listened to this song hundreds of times over the years and now at 36 that line really jumped out at me. I heard it plenty of times but just now understand it.

Pink Floyd doesn't rush things....yes, that is an alien thought in our instant gratification culture. Dig that hole .....ie. keeping working 9 to 5 and slaving away.

It’s almost impossible to have a favorite song on this album as it’s more like it feels the whole album is one song.

The Floyd songs don't "begin" or "end", long intro's, blending seamlessly from one to another, always been the Floyd's hallmark !! 👏👏

When you get to The Great Gig in the Sky you may consider a live version. I think you'll enjoy it more. Just a thought. Thanks for sharing your reaction.

Each track on this album runs into each other. No pause; they just seamlessly blend, one into the other.

Us and them prolly my fav song on the album it’s actually romantic how good it is

Sharing Dark Side of the Moon with Lily Jane...mmmm. Smoke a fat J. I do really like Pink Floyd. When I was younger, I really liked them, because the album is like a book with chapters. It feels continuous. I think it's part of the 70's. Very Old School. Loved the smile when they finally hit the groove. Noticed one of your followers included the phrase "bushcraft". That could mean many things. Survival in the Bush? You're not cliche and dumb. There is something about Pink Floyd. Lily Jane, YEAH!

Angel Eyes! You are so astute! My new favorite reaction Angel 😇

Please be mindful that this album is 50 years old in 2023. Yep, Golden Anniversary!!!

Every one has a different and very personal opinion on the band and this album. Most people love both, a few only this album..... and I even met a woman who hated everything Pink Floyd with a scary vengeance. lol The album deals with life from start to finnish , but each side tackles the theme from different or maybe even opposing angles. Side one deals with a normal average life from inside the womb to that final Great Gig in heaven. Speak to Me is pre birth..... inside the womb and hearing your mother’s heart beat, then random speech and noises. This ends with the crescendo and screaming..... child birth. Breathe starts immediately after birth...... breathe in the air or the song is already over. On the Run........from the time we become conscious of life, other people have us constantly on the run......from parental control to school to work..... always under pressure to perform. For a rock star, that pressure can be symbolised by constant flying and the worlds airports. TIME....... starts with adolescence and ends with the Great Gig. The Great Gig in The Sky..... the end of TIME. I treat these 2 songs as the one song in 2 parts. The Great Gig ends side 1 with the 5 stages of death, when NO words describe it best.

you seem like a homie and I definitely think youll do very well on youtube if you keep at it. love the song and seeing you hear it for the first time, thank you!

for me i love all the early stuff , im 56 , but the final cut hits home with me

My alltime Love Floyd))

Us and Them is my favorite off the Dark Side. Interesting fact for you sweetie about The Dark Side of the Moon. The origianl title for the album was Eclipse A Piece for assorted Lunatics. Enjoy!!!! Love you bunches sweetie!!!!

Speak To Me is about coming out of a near death state. If you’ve been there, you get it right away! BTW: Gilmore and Waters didn’t like closed hi-hats.

'The Division Bell' is on par with all of Pink Floyd's greatest works. As good as 'Animals', 'Wish You Were Here', and yes, 'DSOTM'.......

Nice! Keep 'em coming....

The whole album is worth listening to in one go, even if it's on your own time instead of for a video

I'm stoned out of my mind and I can tell she has headphones on. You people are tripping!

That album is 50 years old this year. Released March 1 1973

Many don’t get that the beginning of DSOTM is parts of the sound effects “looped” (before there was such a thing) together to creat the opening TENSION of Speak to me.

This is the best selling album in the history of the world. It stayed in the top 500 for over 10 years.

The “scream” was birth, first breath (breathe in the air) figuratively and literally. IMO, literally.

I love your face of joy 😂 new suscriber thanks for sharing us your journey listening to pf

From an album with no songs on it that aren't incredible, "The Great Gig in the Sky" is the highlight for me.

I'm excited that ur doing the whole album 👍.. And yes u must b stoned for all pink floyed albums lol..

An FYI, the heartbeat at the beginning of this is what named the "Pulse" tour. 4/20 was a great day to put this out!!

Saw them June 28 1975, great show, Dark side of the moon is best listened to start to finish non stop, rest is up to you, happy 420

Pink Floyd is one of the best bands to smoke to. Put the dark side of the moon album on and just sit back! Happy 4/20 cute girl!

Such a masterpiece. What a way to open an album. Crank this up and you feel like you're floating. The guitars in this album are so cool. In this song how the slide guitar plays with the twangy guitar melody underneath it. In "Any Colour You Like" the guitar tracking is wild. With headphones on you can hear two guitars playing with each other moving from ear to ear. The production of this album is sooooooo good. I've got to say, Roger's bass playing in "Any Colour You Like" is some of the best I've heard. Focus on that bass groove on that track.

They've been making me feel better since the 70's.

Dont forget the live versions as well! Pulse live is life hanging!
