I remember when I first heard Time. After the “starting gun” line I’m not ashamed to say I cried very real tears almost immediately. No string of words had ever so accurately said what I’d been thinking. They hit like a freight train and the guitar solo felt like plunging down a roller coaster and my stomach dropped.

I think “The sun is the same in a relative way but you’re older” is one of the most clever lines ever written. It evokes such powerful imagery of the sun being in the exact same place in the sky at a certain time of day, every day. I can imagine someone growing older each day while the sun remains unchanging in the sky in a timelapse sort of fashion.

Its funny how the last lyric Wright sang before a 2 decade vocal absence was "the song is over, though I'd something more to say"

I was looking forward to you doing Time, as no other song has struck such a chord (pun semi-intended) with me. As ever, your analysis doesn't disappoint - deep and thoughtful but also presented with concision and clarity. Keep up the good work!

OMG that's one of my favorite song of all TIME. I was anxious for that, and still for Great Gig in the Sky

Bro polyphonic's words are almost as creative as the songs. Like these videos fit the songs' tone, mood, etc so perfectly

Haven't heard "Time" since my mother passed in January. I'm crying my eyes out. The solo just cut through to my core and completely broke me.

It's scary how accurate this song is. It's crazy Waters was younger than I am now when he wrote it and how well it captures the existential feeling of getting older. At 15 I was too young to get it. In my early 20s I got it, but was too young to understand it on a existential level, in my late 20s and into my 30s it scares me. What this song will mean when I hit 40 I'll find in time, but I'm in no rush to get there.

Perfect time for the perfect song. I think that in these troubled times, we all feeel a little bit closeer to death., We are under order to shelter in place. So here we sit, burning up our precious time.Thanks for posting

That's very true But I honestly felt safe during lockdown. There was the whole issue of not seeing anybody, yes, but I personally got used to staying round in my block, walking the dog, and going back home. Now that it's finished, I feel open to the World, and everything is more agoraphobic than before, and while I would want to see more people, that feeling and desire for safety, closed in my hole, my attic, my walls, remains. Now that everything has started moving again, ticking round, life seems in motion, which in this moment in life especially, scares the shit out of me.

My all time favorite Floyd song. It's just individual perfection in a perfect album.

I feel the voice overs are like snippets of ones ego, the lyrics are mostly ones anxiety, greed, fear etc... and the female backing vocals represent the spiritual need within us all.

As much as I love the whole song, I've always thought the reprise of Breathe was the most interesting part. I guess it's just because the first time I heard it, I didn't expect it to do that.

This song makes you feel like you’re experiencing the life of every single organism that ever existed at the same time

The biggest reason I love Pink Floyd is that they're the one band I can consistently turn to when things have got to shit that will validate every dark feeling I'm experiencing, when nobody in my circle will do so. It's the most freeing thing I can do for myself. I have a feeling I'll be visiting my Pink Floyd vinyl in the very near future.

The line "quiet desperation is the English way" & possibly the sentiment of the song might have been inspired by Henry David Thoreau who wrote " the mass of men lead lives of quiet desperation." A very profound if not sorrowful song that ponders what a well lived life really is. I wore out 2 vinyl copies of Dark Side of the Moon back in the early 70s. Definitely a good headphone, introspective album. Love the series you're doing on it 👍

I also love in the reprise of breathe how the lyrics "Home again" represent the music too, how we feel comfortable and at home in the repetition of the opening song. It contrasts the harshness of time and I think criticises our ignorance towards the passing of time.

I love that one of the main themes in the song is procrastination and the intro of the song sounds like the band is procrastinating to start the song.

This is my favourite song and I swear that I can feel my heart stopping momentarily during the guitar solo especially when I am feeling a little sentimental. Most would put other guitar solos on top including comfortably numb by gilmour again but I feel this is the most emotional and now - after seeing the analysis - perfectly designed piece of music with every note calculated and designed to convey the utmost reality of humanity

I love this song so much to the point where I didn't think I could love it any more. Boy was I wrong, That was one of the best videos on Pink Floyd I've ever watched. Dude. Thank you.

This song, unus annus, and many sleepless nights have basically beaten the fear of death out of me, at this point im more scared of living forever than of the end of mt life, all thanks to all of the reminders of my mortality all over the years i've lived so far

"Time" is my all-time favorite song. Thank you for this write-up on it.

That's a very good work. From the first time i heard this music, and for ever since, i always felt all these things but couldn't explain at all. This just shows how this music can really pass these feelings, as i couldn't even understand english at that time, but the progression touched me. Your analysis really took the very meaning of it, and displayed for people to understand.

This is my favourite song, thanks for the video. I really feel this song down the spine up to the heels. it feels a little like diving backwards into cold water

Amazing, wide-angled exploration, as always. Just a little hint. I've looked up the original lyrics written in the 1973 LP gatefold. It stands: "The time is gone, the song is over, thought I'd something more to say".

Notice how Mason's drum solo starts the song, sounding like a clock and only after 2 minutes the lyrics kick in hitting you with the "ticking away the moments that make up a dull day" line. Pure genius.

Thanks for such a useful perspective! Keep the awesome work fella!

This whole series, this "The Dark Side of the Moon Project" is absolutely brilliant. Wow. I hope more people get to see it and experience its completeness. Thank you.

Without any doubt the greatest, most poetic, artistic and profound recording in the history of popular music. Thanks for reading me why I fell in love with it in the mid 80s as a teenager -already a decade after it was released... I know every groove of that LP like it was imbedded in my very being.

Man this is great! I thought I knew this song and it's lyrics, but thanks to you I understand it in a whole new way.

Your editing is so quality, thanks for all the work

I always thought of the breathe reprise as a description of the afterlife. It is after "the song is over", and it talks about being "home, home again." Metaphorically, death could be seen as being home again, returning to where you once started. Also, the section is more relaxed and less sad, perhaps to signify that the narrator no longer has to worry about time because he is dead. Also, he is "cold and tired" from reality, and maybe the afterlife is where he can finally "warm his bones beside the fire." Meanwhile, "far away across the field" (maybe "across the field" meaning across the field of existence, AKA in real life), there is a funeral for the narrator that is going on: "the tolling of the iron bell brings the faithful to their knees." The people there hear the priest say the words to let the narrator rest in peace - the "softly spoken magic spell". Now the narrator is finally at peace, and the song is truly over.

I needed this today. Thank you.

My favorite track on this album and Floyd in general. Ticking clocks, the solo and the reprise make it a pretty unique listen.

Great video. This is one of my favorite songs of all time. It fills me with a unique, bittersweet feeling that no other song has exactly matched. I relate to the first segment of the song, and am fearful of the second half occuring. It's a striking and thought-provoking song and it's easy to see how Pink Floyd became so successful.

What you is simply great, awesome and amazing! Thank you so much for your content!
