I second this (technically I tenth this judging from the likes). Those are the 'essential' Pink Floyd albums. I hope you react to them the same way as you have reacted to this one (from the beginning to the end). Wish You Were Here and Animals have only 5 songs on the album (some are long though), 'The Wall' is a very long album full of interludes and it's really the essential 'concept' rock album (look up what that is if you don't know what I'm talking about). It does however, require you to do longer listening sessions probably, else 'the concept' probably won't make a lot of sense. Then again, most PF albums will grow on you over time, the ambiguity of their music makes it so you can re-appreciate the songs as you get older. Following you on this DSotM listening session was fun. It's still kind of weird that I look up videos of other people listening to Pink Floyd for the first time (it's not something I tell at my zoom meetings) but I guess it's mostly to hear a lot of Pink Floyd, but having someone enjoy the album for the first time always kinda brings me back to when I first discovered these masterpieces, so it adds to the enjoyment. The disadvantage is that I'll have to deal with KZread's bitrate... but eh, I'll just have to wash that away with my elitist lossless album rips ;).

Ive listened to this record since the 70s and got to hear the entire thing again with. Someone that is discovering it for the first time, That's a gift for me. Also remember all those synth sound had to be created every time they were turned on. There was no such thing as a bank of preset sounds.. I love DSOTM Wish you were here is just as good. If not better. Animals is great as well. The Wall in my opinion was their pinnacle. It is darker but absolutely brilliant. BTW they play this entire record front to back without any breaks, note for note on the Pulse tour.

TH, Imagine yourself as one of the members of this band. Now, after having completed this album, you find yourself in a room with a record label big wig.. He wants another album out ASAP (so they can make money off of your talent). I would look over to one of my bandmates and say "How the heck can we top what we just did?!?!?!!!

That album has the magic that Syd Barrett originally brought to the band. And the fact that he came into the studio during their sessions and had changed so much... it’s pretty indescribable

Here is a fun fact for you.... this album is soooooo good that it was preserved in the U.S. Library of Congress because of it's cultural and historical significance

I so wish that I can listen to this album for the first time again. After 40 odd years it still brings tears to me eyes.

Hey Bud you think your mind is blown, spare a thought for those of us who heard this freaker in 1973 and have never been the same since!!

“Nobody has a sound like these guys, man. Nobody.” One of my favorite quotes on a Pink Floyd reaction. Right in the middle of being blown away by Any Colour You Like. Awesome

Now when you listen to it again, and you will, lights out headphones on and just drift away....

Also.... it ends the same way it begins.... so that you can just keep it on replay and let it start from the beginning again without skipping a beat :)

Good job, young man. I hope you get to listen to this album as many times as I have over the past 45 years.

Awesome, thank you. Enjoyed very much. Just to plant a seed, they played this whole album live at the spectacular Pulse Concert 1995.

A masterpiece of a Album .

The "Wish You Were Here" album by PF is a MUST

That could be my favourite reaction to Dark Side of the moon. Please keep it going and don't worry......There's plenty more where that came from

Thanks for doing the whole album. It was great. I agree that doing the studio versions first is the best way to go to experience the un-diluted perfection of Floyds recordings, then, once you know the song, you can treat yourself to the live version.

When album finished I think you realized that it's a life changer. This band, their music is a life changer. Their music was coming out in pain, fights and pursuing of excellence... Incredible mix of talents!

Quite simply watch the Pulse concert in it’s entirety, it contains the whole of Dark Side of the Moon plus one hell of a lot more and is probably the best live concert ever, you will be blown away.

Dark Side Of The Moon has spent a total of 950 weeks on the Billboard top 200 albums, 781 of those were In A Row (that's 15 years)!! No other album has ever come even close to those numbers. Welcome to the rabbit hole that is Pink Floyd. Enjoy the journey.

"Meaning" is the word when it comes to Pink Floyd. Whatever else is said about them their music is not without meaning and relevancy. An atmospheric poetic and relevant view of life and humanity that has withstood the test of time. The meaning of this album and its songs will evolve and grow with you as you get older... only causing you to only appreciate it that much more. Take it from an old man. You might want to check out "Wish You Were Here" album next, or perhaps just the title track "Wish You Were Here'" as a teaser. Also, they do a pretty good live rendition of "Money" from this album on the Pulse concert. ✌️

Thank you my friend !

Watched a lot of reactors over the last 2 years, including those doing Pink Floyd. Yours was superb. You "Time-d" 😁 your brief good comments during instrumental portions to avoid stepping on the lyrics, and you played and followed the lyrics too. I also noticed you did the studio version of Comfortably Numb before the awesome Pulse concert version. Impressive! Always do the studio versions released the public back in the day first, as that's the most commonly known versions of great music or movies. Then do new versions later to compare, as we did over the years. At the "Time" gap I found and watched your reaction there and came back to where you left off. Don't let others rag you for skipping "Time" because a lot of us have heard or seen all this stuff dozens if not hundreds of time. We're here to watch you younger folks react, not listen to the whole thing uninterrupted. I was 18 when Dark Side Of The Moon was released and your reactions reminded me of ours back then. Dark Side was THE most significant album for PF. Was a fan way before Dark Side, as PF was already a very popular acid/psychedelic rock band that even did a few movie music scores too. We felt that PF would keep getting better so Dark Side was not that unexpected really. At least to us diehard fans. But it was still AWESOME as can be, and we couldn't stop playing it over and over! No doubt you'll venture into their excellent post-Dark Side albums, and there's a lot to explore, but sometime later go back to their very interesting beginnings with its founder Syd Barrett and his The Piper At The Gates of Dawn album, then their Barrett-Gilmore transitional album Saucer Full of Secrets, and take off from there. I think you'll like their early stuff, but it is quite different than Dark Side and beyond. You'd just have to have grown up in the 60s and early 70s to really understand! LOL! I'll hit subscribe. Regards.

Only way to listen to it, really.

The detached description of a lobotomy is demonstrated in the lines "You raise the blade, you make the change. You re-arrange me 'till I'm sane". The line "I'll see you on the dark side of the moon", which became a famous metaphor of human irrationality, expresses that madness that is always present but invisible, waiting to be exposed. In Sigmund Freud's terms it would be the unconscious.[4]

Had a hard day at work, put on Dark Side of the Moon with headphones, relax and take the journey.

Dick Perry is a beast on the sax. They brought him back on for the PULSE tour where they played Dark Side in full live. I was never so happy when I realized they were doing such on that tour. You really need to see that video.

An album that's like a commentary on Life Death and everything in between and so much sonic genius to boot ,testament to it being in the billboard top 200 for 14 years,more than the next highest album. Also the album plays in a loop that is in fact unending with heartbeats on fade in at start and After Eclipse! Gad you saw it through and it sure flashes by eh!!

This is the first of a four album run that many consider to be the ultimate period for the band. The next three in order would be - Wish You Were Here - Animals - The Wall...As a new subscriber I reccomend you continue your "Floydian" journey in this order....Enjoy, Brother.

I bought the album when it was released in the early 70s, and have replaced it several times over the years.I don’t know if anyone could be a bigger fan of Pink Floyd than me.They we’re so far ahead of their time, and that’s the reason this album is still so great.Best group ever.😎

Working your way through the albums is the best way, like you did with dark side. As others mentioned, check out the follow-up album to dark side next "wish you were here" (not just the single "wish you were here" song, which is great by itself).

Nice to see Pink Floyd has been passed on to the next generation. Now it's your job to do the same

Great reaction! Work your way through the albums Wish You Were Here, Animals, The Wall, and The Final cut in that order. By themselves they're life changing, in sequence it's collectively soul changing. After those albums, double back to Meddle and Obscured By Clouds, then the later stuff A Momentary Lapse Of Reason, then Division Bell, go back to the beginning with Piper At the Gates of Dawn for their start, A Saucerful Of Secrets, More, Ummagumma, Atom Heart Mother, then end with the final album Endless River. You'll have a whole new outlook on life, my friend. Stay safe and keep the Pink Floyd coming!

It's making you think of things you've never considered. I see it. This is exactly what Pink Floyd does to you. Next to the Beatles they're my all time favorite! Enjoy the voyage! ❤

Good luck finding anything this epic today! I kind of doubt it. I really believe these guys are the Mozart/Beethoven of our time because this album alone still sells 10,000 copies a week and it's almost 50 years old. 200 years from now they'll probably only be listening to Led Zeppelin and Pink Floyd, the Beatles and maybe two or three other groups from nowadays. But I guarantee you one thing....Pink Floyd will still be on somebody's playlist, turntable or whatever it's called 500 years from now! Enjoy Echoes from "Meddle" the albums "Wish you were Here", "Animals" or "The Wall" even a group of songs off of the "Division Bell" album! Pink Floyd's nearly a bottomless rabbit hole so enjoy!!

Yes sir the best band you will ever listen to best music in your car no one else

Nearly 200 subs! Growing quickly! Well done bro 👏🏼 DSOM is such a great album. Everytime I listen to it I notice something new and fresh about it. Never get bored of it. My personal favourite album is Wish you were here, with my favourite song being Shine on you crazy diamond, all parts. I think it's Dave Gilmour's favourite album and song as well. Really is amazing. Shine on you crazy diamond always brings me, a grown man, to tears. Haha. All the best buddy. 👍🏼💪🏻

This album was 10/10 amazing. Thank you so much for the support too. Love having inspirational comments like that. Makes my day every time

The prism album design was 'lifted' from a school physics textbook & embellished. The story goes that the artist had several designs ready in a room when the band came in. They quickly scanned the designs but all pointed to the rainbow & said 'that one'. It's now so famous, they don't need their name on it, everyone knows its them. 'That's so retro'...LOL!...it was new back then !. In Brian Damage, its got references to Syd Barrett with lines like 'If the band you're in start playing different tunes, I'll see you on the dark side of the moon'.

The genius of this album is each song has a message yet it speaks to every listener individually. The themes that run through this album are universal. Is it any wonder it's an all time best seller?

Loved your reaction dude, i always enjoy watching others discover Pink Floyd for the first time. DSOTM is a gift bestowed upon us by special people.....Keep up the great work✌

The 70's when music was real music and the artists had talent and played instruments. No auto tune either. This is one of, if not the greatest album ever released.

Next Pink Floyd album reaction --> Animals 😎👍

Still sounds like it was recorded yesterday - a timeless epic masterpiece.

I liked your reaction, you can tell you felt the music and the message👌

Never gets old watching someone lose their sh!# the first time they hear Floyd

idk if anyone mentioned this but Roger Waters sat down with many staff members and asked them a series of questions like, “have you ever felt like you were going mad?” and “have you ever felt a sudden urge to be violent?” among other questions. The voices you hear in the background of the songs (such as the laughing and the old man talking) are those exact people Waters interviewed and used the sound bites in their songs.

Finally someone that express exactly what i think about this album: it's about life. And everything suggests that, from the beginning (a heart beating and your mom moans to give you birth) to the end (acceptance of everything you lived and finally a heartbeat again, but falling down slowly to the end of the album). Its just amazing. Great reaction.

In my teenage years, we always tested headphones and speakers with Dark Side of the Moon. Nothing could expose bad equipment faster than this record, because only if there was no rustling or creaking with these songs it was good equipment.

New subscriber - welcome to the Machine, you have your Floyd wings now! I was fortunate enough to see them in concert in 1977 - best one I've been to. Nowadays, they're "old", haven't toured in a lonnnng time (and RIchard Wright passed many years ago), but if you love Floyd music, I urge everyone to check out concerts this year for tribute band Brit Floyd - I've seen them 3 times, and will be the 4th in August, they painstakingly recreate every sound and nuance, plus the light show and graphics are phenomenal, it's the next best thing to seeing PF.

I heard DSOTM for the first time in 1973. It changed my view of music forever! I had never heard anything like it! It was my favorite album then, and 48 years later it's still my favorite album. You need to do Meddle, Wish You You Were Here, The Wall, Animals. You will be blown away!

This was recorded before digital.

Pink Floyd are their OWN genre!!! There is a reason why this record was on the top 100 album charts fro 714 weeks in a row, followed by another 900+ weeks later. Work out how many years that is.... If I've said it once, I've said it a thousand times...when you world turns to shit and you've had a crappy day, you come home, pour a scotch (or similar), or glass of red, drink that offing it down. Then, pour another, woof that down too, then pour a third one and go turn off all the lights. Put this, or ANY Pink Floyd record on. Go find a bean bag or deep leather couch, put your headphones on and sink down into your chair, close your eyes, sip away the final drink, and let the music sooth your soul !!!

Pink Floyd is on another level. 🔥🔥🔥👍😎

For the next PF album you might as well do Wish You Were Here since it was their next album. Then do Animals.

Great job. This whole album is a masterpiece. No one writes like Roger waters.Great reaction look forward to seeing more😀👍❤️✌️🌼

After this, you HAVE to do the Animals album. Choose the video's WITH the lyrics. Also, just do a bit of basic research about the album so that it makes a bit more sense to you. It's a work of art I promise you. You'll thank me later!

You need to react to entire Dark Side of the Moon live (PULSE 1994 remasterized 2019). Its absolutely amazing

It was VERY revolutionary when it came out in March 1973. Everyone that heard it was blown away and pretty much everyone since. I was 10 and my older brother bought it home from college for Spring Break and Holy Cow - we loved it and just couldn’t believe what we were hearing. It was the standard for recordings for a decade or more. The quadraphonic recording was new was perfectly timed to the maturation of Gilmour, Waters, Wright and Mason’s musical visions. Coupled with former Beatles engineering assistant, Alan Parsons, who went on to a good career with his The Alan Parson Project - you should check him out too, looking for the freedom to experiment and make a name for himself, and the remarkable lyrics of 29-year old Waters who realized his life was NOW - he was mortal and afraid of an early death (his father died in WW2 when Waters was a baby) - (see The Wall 😂); they created an enduring masterpiece for the ages. The only thing wrong with DSOTM is it’s too short!!! It’s the longest charting album in the Billboard Top 200 albums- over 950 weeks total - it charted for ~740 consecutive from its release ~ 14 years straight. 👍🏻😎🏆

eclipse is one of the best rocksongs ever. they played it at the end of the 2012 olympic opening ceremony: kzread.info/dash/bejne/iYdmutlqqNWdn5c.html there is way more. wish you were here. the wall. animals. division bell. atom heart mother. and you should react to this: kzread.info/dash/bejne/q2F5mcGPeK_cm6g.html this performance sums up the magic of this band pretty well.

Oh and also ECHOES (Live in Gdansk) is ... something that might have lived only on the dark side of the moon..

Oh I forgot to tell you that album is one long song 🎧 enjoy

Brain Damage / Eclipse is the greatest ending to any album in history

Wait til you get to Animals!

That very last line that you quoted was actually removed from the album, apparently Waters thought it was too optimistic for such a "dark" album.

If and when you react to echoes, I would do the album first. The 72 live version is broken into two parts and most reactors never react to the second part of the song/video.

Totally agree.. do the album studio version of Echoes first. Warning, it's 23 minutes and change, but trust me, you'll hardly notice it.

Do live version of echoes before the album version. The album version is the entire side 2 of the album Meddle with an extended sound effects section in the middle. Live at Pompeii cuts it in two and reduces the sound effects part making it better as a reaction piece😉

Imo, this is the only Pink Floyd album where every member of the band was crucial to the way the album came out. It could not have been done without Nick Mason's impeccable precision drumming nor without Richard Wrights dreamy synth and keyboards nor without Dave Gilmours incredibly expressive guitar work and not without Roger Waters beautiful lyrics and input into the song writing. All their other albums did not have the same equally creative input by each member.

You don't have to listen to any other Pink Floyd album, you'll be disappointed. DSM was the moment it all came together for them. After that it fell apart.

Do yourself a favour and at some point, listen to the entire Pink Floyd Pulse (live) album. It is a feast for the hears, eyes and soul. You will never be the same again. Guaranteed!

check out the dark side of the moon on wikipedia u will b amazed

You are kinda supposed to be sad...but also uplifted. The movements of the sun and the moon, and the eclipses in between are just phases...as it fades out, if you put it on again right away...it fades IN again. I love LOTS of different kinds of music, but Floyd is my shit.
