At last some real appreciation being shown by good people who understand and can read behind the lines that they didn't when they were 18 . This man stands as the greatest rock showman of all time with a passion for truth change and opposition to these hall of fools and pathological killer in charge of us all . Forever Roger .
Majestic. Roger and his music have aged elegantly. Only time will tell if the basement dwellers, critics, and naysayers have the ability to mature as they age.
This version is delivered precisely the way one would expect an 80 year old man would. It was an insightful poem written by a 30 year old but now delivered by a world weary man who has revolved 50 times around the sun since. Outstanding! Bravo Mr. Waters!
It's like bumping into a dear old friend you haven't seen for years. It is wonderful to see how they have changed in all that time, but also wonderful to be able to still see what originally made you love them in the first place.
@@WhiteWizzardMore like the dear old friend turned fat and bald and you don't know what to say to him, but you want to say it. But can't. So you sit and stare at his head where gorgeous Motley Crue-like hair once was.
Congratulations (MIKLOS)!! I did it with my SON are 15 years old in SÃO PAULO - Brazil! Today he is 35 years old and I remember this at all TIME!!! ROGER, you broken and stole my SOUL with this version. Please, ROGER, don't STOP your career you'll live until the 120 years and we too.
The original is perfect, however I appreciate what Roger has done here. For everyone upset, the original still exists, it hasn't disappeared, you can still listen to it.
@@WhiteWizzard Meh. DSOTM doesn't exist without Roger. If anything hearing him in his older years talk about time getting behind you is fitting. Honestly, this version speak to me in ways the original does not in my own later years.
@@16vjohnny hey good for you….this does nothing for me. I never had a problem hearing the lyrics on the original. Once the album was put in the world it wasn’t Rogers anymore…..it was the worlds. Every fan of it can come to their concisions. Everybody that loves this hey god bless ‘em. I think it sounds like a lounge cover band and I’m not into it. YMMV
The Early version with Pink Floyd had the sound of time on it's hands, of youth with a lifetime ahead. This version sounds like it's now at it's graveside and reflecting on how quickly time went by and how life is over. Where the early version had the sound of vibrant youth, this version has the sound of old age at the end of life where a lifetime of regret and missed opportunities meet the grave. It's sound is sad and gripping and a reminder to wake up and live what life you have left.
It is a great reinterpretation of this song. The "No one told when to run" resonate so often in my head, anytime I have to take an important decision, it pops up. The contrast between the energy of the youth and the wisdom of the elder is so well expressed with this new arrangement.. Thanks !
Yep, it makes much more sense as you get older. When you're a teenager and in twenties, it feels like you have all the time in the world. And what feels like the blink of an eye, its twenty years later. Then you realize another 20 will go by even faster. So yeah, time to start running.
Yeah, the wisdom of ruining a masterpiece! This is a lazy and boring arrangement, truly disrespectful to Gilmour and Mason (he completely erased the guitar track e redid the percussion that now sound awfully fake)

Here's to all the cool dads out there. You will all meet them again one day. We are all part of a much bigger story that we could ever imagine. I promise you you'll be jamming with your dad again someday 🍀✌️
The beautiful thing about this version is that it raises a magnifying glass the message of the original. I can actually feel my time being wasted and slipping away as I'm listening to it.
I never would have dreamed as a schoolkid that I'd still be listening to him releasing new material, rehashed or not, when I'm in my 50s. Makes me happy. Long Live Roger Waters!
time is the greatest song ever made, full stop. i actually love what he adds to it, especially in the beginning. nothing has or ever will match the original but it’s great to see such a masterpiece be re-examined by an older roger. it’s much much better than what we heard on money.
It's ok, but I miss Gilmour guitars, Mason drums and Wright keyboards on it! I don't think the original needed a reinterpretation because it was, and is, simply PERFECT..
@@xavierlluch702 oh i mean yeah, like i said, the original version of time is the best song ever made. the lyrics are so strong and relatable and it has the best guitar solo of all time. rogers version obviously isn’t anywhere near the original, nothing has or ever will maybe beat it, but he’s still made a good song here
Thank you for posting the lyrics with the music. These days my hearing is too poor to fully get the words amongst the music but I have been listening to your songs since the beginning. Gratitude for your caring being, hugs.
It has been 50 years since I bought Dark side of the Moon. I love both versions for different times. Listen to the 1st version and in 50 years listen to this. You will probably appreciate this version. I’m just happy that people still appreciate the great music that I grew up with.
The lyrics hit me harder today than they ever have.... I'm less than a month from 52.... Brilliant words and a true unshakeable realization of things i never really had to think about.
omg it's like Waters' ego itself had a chance to speak by itself. It baffles me how people find it genius or anything. There's nothing, absolutely nothing special about this, but because Waters did then it's gotta be special.
Having received the original album, cassette actually, of “The Dark Side of the Moon” as an eleven years old child in the magnificent 70’s, I played it continuously for hours on end, flipping the cassette over and over, never growing bored. As it spoke gently to my budding juvenile mind, I was suddenly awakened to my own mortality; that I, too, will one day cease to exist. It was a turning moment in my life, profoundly changing me for eternity. Violent, yet beautiful. Pink Floyd, Moody Blues, ELP, Black Sabbath, and many more have blessed humanity with timeless wisdom that will continue for generations to come! On the 50th anniversary of this Milestone Album, Mr. Waters, in my humble opinion, has given us another beautiful interpretation of this great music. His vocal and musical delivery are just as wonderfully, enjoyably contained as 50 years ago. Same, yet eloquently different. BRAVO, Mr. Waters!!!! Encore! Encore!
This is incredible. Anyone with the consideration of the lyrics and for Roger to tell it again being an elder as a reminder. Be thankful of this man’s gift of wisdom to us all over time. Respect Sir Thank You
It's outstanding. I am 63 years old, and this version perfectly expresses my feelings at my age. "One day closer to death" is a sentence I should start every new day with and live by. My eyes well up with tears towards the middle section. From Hungary, best wishes!
The part about being young and having time to kill is much more meaningful when I hear it now at almost 60 than it was when I first heard this in high school.
It's a strange contrast actually. It was meaningful when I was in high school, but at nearly 60 it can be appreciated with more depth. Wisdom is an odd talent.
@@Cards-In-The-Closet But that's precisely what Roger is playing on; the people who were kids when DSOTM was released hearing this and going _"it makes more sense to me now that I'm old"_ . But Roger didn't write the lyric when he was an old man, and the lyric isn't even written from an old character's perspective. The song is written from a young man's perspective on life and his opinion _at that age_ on what it is to get old, and its very disingenuous of Roger to say in interviews that this recording much better conveys the message he doesn't think the original managed to. This album would have been much less dishonest and quite frankly a better piece of work if he'd kept the musical themes, and updated the lyrics according to his thoughts and feelings on the song subjects as a man of almost 80.
When I heard the Money redux I was negatively surprised and I wondered why he did it. Listening to Time redux I have to admit that it is genius and unique.
An appreciation of our limited time is essential. It can help us be more respectful, grateful & intentional with what we do have. I was too scattered as a teenager / young adult to really appreciate this music. I knew I liked it, but didn't really take in the lyrics until much later.
Yep at one day when i was a child my dad took me next to him and he told me to listen this song and the lesson it has. But I willl take the original version to teach my children.
I find this version shines more of a spotlight on those beautiful,poetic lyrics. He just wants to get his message across to all of us ,young and old. A message I wish I would've paid more attention to as a kid in the 70's.
Dear Roger, it is time to think about an honest retirement. The fact that you participated in the writing of this masterpiece does not give you the right to rape it. Enough, please. I would like to remember you as a pillar of music and not as a grudging old man. You without the Floyd are a boring strummer, the Floyd without you are decent musicians who can't write lyrics. The magic was your union. I repeat. Enough. For all the love I feel for you
Dear sir! Please don't deny Mr. Waters to try to make something different out of this music. If he fails, it will be his failure, if he wins, it will be his victory.
This was a nice surprise. Good desicion to do somenting completely different with the song. Hard to believe it was 50 years ago I unknowingly bought what would become one of the best albums in the history of modern music. I already knew Pink Floyd then, and at first I thought Dark Side was too polished and mainstream. But it didn't take long to revise that premature opinion.
WoW! This actually made me tear up - I felt the time between hearing this song when I was a child, and hearing the redux now, and all I can say is wow. I'm glad my copy is already on order! Roger just gets better every moment, and I am grateful for and to him for being my life's best soundtrack.
When I listened to this I realized that I've been listening to DSOTM for so long that the very chord changes are a part of my DNA. I've been listening to DSOTM since I was about 8 years old (I'm in the late 50s now). It was one of my first albums. I love this. And if I can love this, all these youngins who are doing their performative hate dances can get over it. When you grow up you realize that a reinterpretation of one of your favorite works is not a replacement. It's not one or the other, sunshine. And trust me, no one cares whether you like the original album better. You won't get points for complaining. There are no prizes for being the loudest whiner. It's simple. I'm not a fan of Jay-Z. You know how I deal with that? I don't buy Jay-Z. And guess what? No one cares. This is a work which is being reinterpreted by the guy who wrote it and recorded it with the help of his band. If anybody has the right to reinterpret DSOTM, it's Roger Waters. Read the credits, folks. If you actually ever did that you might realize why you sound so silly to old timers like me.
You speak of sin. In the Jewish tradition, they live by a set of commandments. Mitzvahs. What is the 1st of these? A thing called "Rosh Chodesh". To observe the New Moon, and treat that event as holy. This leaves many scratching their heads. Ok, we are to make a calendar, and live by it. But of all the teachings in the Torah, why would that be the FIRST? I have heard it explained by a Rabbi somewhere here on the youtubes... Rosh Chodesh is primary, because we are taught to sanctify our time. The teaching is to not waste the time we have been given. So in this light, Pink Floyd is sharing the same wisdom as taught by Moses. The same message as your comment.
This version of 'Time' is phenomenal! It brings a deep, introspective vibe that contrasts with the original one energy. It’s a fresh take that really hits home.
I grew up, became a man, worked, loved , gave, lost, laughed, cried and got older.. this song has been with me through it all like a dear comforting friend. Thank you
I’m 25 years old and a huge pink Floyd fan, I missed out on the golden years and experiencing their master pieces as they released them, I love what Rodger is doing with this, I have the feeling of listening to new pink Floyd music! My favourite memory was seeing him live in Melbourne in 2018. Thank you Rodger! ⚒️🗿🕰️🌛💰
This version produced from the jealousy Woger has towards David Gilmore is simply TERRIBLE! Even with knowing the original it's simply a very boroming and SH!T song with terrible terrible "singing"!
@@Volt-HCiit's not awful, it's just weathered and old. Reminds me of latter day leonard cohen. Suits the reflective nature of this recording by an 80 year old.
Nothing can replace the original album , but this is growing on me . Roger has every right to do as he sees fit & he wrote the majority of the original. I don't think anyone can deny his writing abilities
Nope. More like he is doing everything in his power to erase Gilmour. Just like his last concert that opened up with a redux version of Comfortably Numb that was horrible.
The lyrics are his, he can do what he wants with it. Being about mortality, there is a timelessness to it, ironically enough. I can see him performing this in his last phase of life, though the original recording had more life to it. It will be an interesting outreach to those who were there when the band launched, as Waters turns 80. He's the master of the Leitmotif, so he's circling around again. The same in a relative way, but he's older. And in his singing you can hear that he is indeed shorter of breath.
Yeah the song is his to butcher all he wants trying to be Leonard Cohen her it’s a piece of crap, just because he’s not written anything worth listening to since he left Floyd
What made DSOTM so great was Roger's concept and lyrics, combined with the vocals of David Gilmour and Richard Wright, David's guitars, Richard's keyboards, Nick's drumming, Dick's Saxophone, Claire Torry's vocals, and Alan Parsons. It was the sum of all its parts. This effort just sounds like a slightly improved version of a Roger Waters Demo tape. (I bought the 50th anniversary boxed set. I'll throw a copy of this in and pretend it was the demo!)
It’s so great that after all these years we have the pleasure to hear the songwriter of possibly the greatest album ever created digging up more onto the lyrical themes and content of each song on the album. It’s like we’re entering Roger’s intrusive thoughts of when he made the song.
True, and yet ppl are just fucking complaining and talking about how blasfemic this is. Instead of admitting how brave you have to be to try and rethink one of the best album ever
We love you Roger and we love what you're doing for Palestine and the Palestinians ❤️🇵🇸✌️ . I loved your music before and now I have another reason to love it ❤
The orchestral background is as depressing as this heavy-handed remake is pedantic, didactic, and super boring. Did I mention long? It is clear to me now what Rog and Gilmie had going on.
If you think you could have done without David, Rich and Nick, you thought about it too late. Remember that if you are Roger Water, and you take the freedom to do and say whatever you want, you owe it to them too. I would never have bought "The dark side of the moon" in this version. Maybe I would have bought a book of your poems. I don't know!
Time was always my favourite track on DSOTM and this is a beguiling take on the original. The idea of an 80 year old man performing lyrics he wrote in his late 20s really adds a sense of poignancy to the song and the musical arrangement enhances the whole thing . Can't wait to hear his take on Great Gig in the Sky ...suspect it will be similar to The Mortality Sequence from the early live versions of Dark Side . Pre ordered !
I thought this was absolutely brilliant. Great Gig in the Sky is by far my favorite song on DSOTM. I play it on my piano when I can't figure out how to handle my emotions....there's no "words", but it expresses everything. So on that dramatic note, I'm a little nervous about it...but I haven't been disappointed yet. I'm really glad he did this.
I'm listening to it again. It's amazing that Roger has added today's perspective to the masterful original and it's once again a masterpiece. It doesn't mimic the original version, but deepens it. The two versions speak to each other across time. It's beautiful. LP ordered. Looking forward to the whole album.
I'd love it if Roger's made his own album in this format, his voice like a storyteller and the echoes of other voices. No guitar but that synth/keyboard. It doesn't show well when it's put against their best selling album but it could hold its own as an original album
Beautiful...Roger is Correct this reinterpretation is all about the lyrics and getting the ear to understand them and after 50 years he does a fantastic job of making them shine...👏
@70ad89 Gilmours a brilliant musician and upto Wish you were here the whole band worked together beautifully until the cracks appeared..But to say Waters is no good at Melodies is ridiculous you obviously don't rate his solo work...
I always found them pretty easy to understand back when the song had incredible music and great vocals. Not sure why we needed a boring spoken word version set to cheap synthesizer from a meditation video.
@@JeromeAnselmo-c5eThis ain’t about music. This about songwriting. Please let one of the greatest songwriters OF ALL TIME, do his thing. His giving you poetry, if you want guitar solos go listen to David Gilmour solo music.
Me too 100% rock icon legend Shame this country of birth (England don't recognise his decades of musical.. via a knighthood... but lolol!.. could you see RW accepting it, I defiantly can't, bless that man made angel) huge world loving heart, I love all his music..his voice!!!...woah!!! Not to mention how he trys his bestest to help achieve world unity & peace, Bless him, he's my true hero
No. It's like he heard becks sea change and said I'm going to do this with a 50 year old piece of music I did as a collab with 3 other musicians and call it my own work of art.
Can't agree about the orgam - lacklustre and soulless, not a patch on Rick Wright's playing. As it's meant to be, I suspect - Rog wouldn't want to deflect attention away from his own parts now, would he. Way to neuter an absolutely classic track.
@@copperfield3629 You still have the original song, Roger wanted to make a version he feels encapsulates better the feeling of what he wrote back then. You guys are overly sensitive over stuff that doesn’t affect you in any way
@@bruce000000070000000 Not sensitive at all. You posted your reaction, I posted mine. Isn't that how this commenting thing is supposed to work??? Or are dissenting opinions not a thing where you come from?
@@copperfield3629 “way to neuter” you’re acting like the original doesn’t exist anymore, this isn’t a difference in opinion, couldn’t care less if you disliked it
This one really got me. I was so into the sound and the groove in the original version of this song that I never really payed real attention to the lyrics as I am doing in this version. Crazy how an arrangement can give you different feelings on the same words
I'm so glad he's completely re-worked and stylised these songs ... he's given them new life, creating completely new imaginigs of the songs but there's just enough of the originals to provide that sense of familiarity ... What I've heard so far from the redux album is both unique and brilliant.
I'm part of the song now. My mind fills in the original guitar and other parts of the instrumentation. The orchestration is probably my favorite part of this.
Hey! Happy birthday my dear friend! Thanks to be a thinking men in this times of mediocre minds. A very worming hug and congratulations and again thank you for your music, ideas and everything else.
Of course too! But this version for me has more authenticity, because it is sung by a guy who is eighty years old and knows what life is about. Maybe what I'm writing is crude and obvious, but that's how I feel.
Unlike the redux of money I actually think this is a really nice fresh breath of fresh air. personally I still prefer the original but this is good in its own right. Well done Roger
Could not agree more. 'Money' was a mistake IMO, this one has the same vibe, but in this case it actually fits very well. However when applied to the whole album I'd say it's going to be... boring
And then spend 50 years insanely jealous because someone else sang them. So you then released your version, and it was fucking awful, and then you reminded everyone why David Gilmour is 10x more liked than you are.
At last some real appreciation being shown by good people who understand and can read behind the lines that they didn't when they were 18 .

@@Cards-In-The-Closet But that's precisely what Roger is playing on; the people who were kids when DSOTM was released hearing this and going _"it makes more sense to me now that I'm old"_ .
But Roger didn't write the lyric when he was an old man, and the lyric isn't even written from an old character's perspective. The song is written from a young man's perspective on life and his opinion _at that age_ on what it is to get old, and its very disingenuous of Roger to say in interviews that this recording much better conveys the message he doesn't think the original managed to.
This album would have been much less dishonest and quite frankly a better piece of work if he'd kept the musical themes, and updated the lyrics according to his thoughts and feelings on the song subjects as a man of almost 80.
@@EddieG1888perhaps he still gels with the lyrics, but finds the new music more fitting for his message
THATS PERFECT! YOU ARE THE BEST MUSICIAN!
When I heard the Money redux I was negatively surprised and I wondered why he did it. Listening to Time redux I have to admit that it is genius and unique.
Probably the most perfect song ever written. Everybody should listen to it at early age. It is a life lesson that will remain forever in the memory.
I agree with you!
Agree
I listened to it as a teenager, love it, never took its advice though...
An appreciation of our limited time is essential.
It can help us be more respectful, grateful & intentional with what we do have.
I was too scattered as a teenager / young adult to really appreciate this music.
I knew I liked it, but didn't really take in the lyrics until much later.
Yep at one day when i was a child my dad took me next to him and he told me to listen this song and the lesson it has. But I willl take the original version to teach my children.
Brilliantly poetic
I find this version shines more of a spotlight on those beautiful,poetic lyrics. He just wants to get his message across to all of us ,young and old. A message I wish I would've paid more attention to as a kid in the 70's.
The lyrics do get lost in the original at times.
Wow. Roger took a great Pink Floyd song and made it sound just like every other Roger Waters' song.
wich means it's a very beautiful song.
@@mohamedalimahfoudh3339 but not as good as the original recording.
@@toonerfische6237 we have different tastes, we should just enjoy the music...
Just be thankful that mr gilmour and Mr wright were able to add their touches before he recrafted it.

Dear Roger, it is time to think about an honest retirement.
The fact that you participated in the writing of this masterpiece does not give you the right to rape it.
Enough, please. I would like to remember you as a pillar of music and not as a grudging old man. You without the Floyd are a boring strummer, the Floyd without you are decent musicians who can't write lyrics. The magic was your union.
I repeat. Enough. For all the love I feel for you
Dear sir! Please don't deny Mr. Waters to try to make something different out of this music. If he fails, it will be his failure, if he wins, it will be his victory.
@@Schwarzman812 Something different? In this piece he sounds like a dull Leonard Cohen
I still can't believe he tried this. This is such a pity.
Bro took out the greatest part of this song, the guitar. What's next Roger, taking the guitar solo out of Comfortably Numb?
This was a nice surprise. Good desicion to do somenting completely different with the song. Hard to believe it was 50 years ago I unknowingly bought what would become one of the best albums in the history of modern music. I already knew Pink Floyd then, and at first I thought Dark Side was too polished and mainstream. But it didn't take long to revise that premature opinion.
Thanks. I love it brother.
WoW! This actually made me tear up - I felt the time between hearing this song when I was a child, and hearing the redux now, and all I can say is wow. I'm glad my copy is already on order! Roger just gets better every moment, and I am grateful for and to him for being my life's best soundtrack.
When I listened to this I realized that I've been listening to DSOTM for so long that the very chord changes are a part of my DNA. I've been listening to DSOTM since I was about 8 years old (I'm in the late 50s now). It was one of my first albums. I love this. And if I can love this, all these youngins who are doing their performative hate dances can get over it. When you grow up you realize that a reinterpretation of one of your favorite works is not a replacement. It's not one or the other, sunshine. And trust me, no one cares whether you like the original album better. You won't get points for complaining. There are no prizes for being the loudest whiner. It's simple. I'm not a fan of Jay-Z. You know how I deal with that? I don't buy Jay-Z. And guess what? No one cares.
This is a work which is being reinterpreted by the guy who wrote it and recorded it with the help of his band. If anybody has the right to reinterpret DSOTM, it's Roger Waters. Read the credits, folks. If you actually ever did that you might realize why you sound so silly to old timers like me.
You should have ended with "now get off my lawn!" 😂
You clearly care a whole lot to be writing this much.
As a 20 year old Floyd fan who's been listening practically my whole life I agree with everything you said.
@@Pulse2AM - The "get off my lawn" is implied.
Love it!!! Way to go!!!
A time stamp of an artist, inspiring in a sense of how to be creative. The music and lyrics as the art of expression after all.
Wasting time is the greatest sin. I love both versions.🖤
You speak of sin.
In the Jewish tradition, they live by a set of commandments. Mitzvahs.
What is the 1st of these? A thing called "Rosh Chodesh". To observe the New Moon, and treat that event as holy.
This leaves many scratching their heads. Ok, we are to make a calendar, and live by it. But of all the teachings in the Torah, why would that be the FIRST?
I have heard it explained by a Rabbi somewhere here on the youtubes...
Rosh Chodesh is primary, because we are taught to sanctify our time. The teaching is to not waste the time we have been given.
So in this light, Pink Floyd is sharing the same wisdom as taught by Moses. The same message as your comment.
So beautiful, in so many ways! Thank you for this, THIS TIME! Thank you Roger Waters
This version of 'Time' is phenomenal! It brings a deep, introspective vibe that contrasts with the original one energy. It’s a fresh take that really hits home.
I grew up, became a man, worked, loved , gave, lost, laughed, cried and got older.. this song has been with me through it all like a dear comforting friend. Thank you
Happy Birthday Roger! 🇷🇺 Greetings from Russia!
Haunting and brilliant version, well done remake to celebrate 50 years since the original release.
I think I know how the rest of the album will sound like
Die Welt ist gleich für alles was lebt auf Erden ❤
The original is so beautiful that nothing can compare
This is the lyrics. it's like a poem, it's less of music, more of poem. I love it. More please. More redux
Why compare if we can apreciate both versions... the original one and the minimal one
I’m 25 years old and a huge pink Floyd fan, I missed out on the golden years and experiencing their master pieces as they released them, I love what Rodger is doing with this, I have the feeling of listening to new pink Floyd music! My favourite memory was seeing him live in Melbourne in 2018. Thank you Rodger! ⚒️🗿🕰️🌛💰
But it isn't remotely Floydian.
But, remember, this is not Pink Floyd, his former bandmates hate Waters and there is not a chance the band would reunite.
Who is Rodger??
@@KiwiFruit65 More Floydian than Gilmour could ever dream of doing on his own.
Sorry that you're getting left overs. You're right, you missed out on the golden age. Have fun with your Spotify.
The more I listen, the more fantastic it becomes!
The string arrangements are just INSANE!!! The Hammond is amazing. I love it
wow i am shocked you are saying this
But the voice is awful !
This version produced from the jealousy Woger has towards David Gilmore is simply TERRIBLE! Even with knowing the original it's simply a very boroming and SH!T song with terrible terrible "singing"!
I thought the strings reminded me of Abbey Road Studio/The Beatles/I am the walrus.
@@Volt-HCiit's not awful, it's just weathered and old. Reminds me of latter day leonard cohen. Suits the reflective nature of this recording by an 80 year old.
Nothing can replace the original album , but this is growing on me . Roger has every right to do as he sees fit & he wrote the majority of the original. I don't think anyone can deny his writing abilities
I was 13 when this was new. Have heard all different versions over the years. It's natural for things, everything, to evolve, mature. Kudos!
Never mess with perfection because you will always come up short.
Can't wait to hear great gig in the sky
Heya you should look up The Doublejumps if you're a Pink Floyd fan
@@grabgrabgrabthegrab I'll give them a go
@@grabgrabgrabthegrab Nice band, thanks for the recommendation
Roger is gonna sing it perhaps?
@@patrickvandepaer5588😂
There is room in the world for this version.
Harmless.
I actually love this version... It sound like Time, but with nostalgic tone to it. It's like Roger is talking to his younger self.
thats exactly what I thought
👍
Yeah Roger is reduced to whispering to himself. Probably the onset of Alzheimer's.
Nope. More like he is doing everything in his power to erase Gilmour. Just like his last concert that opened up with a redux version of Comfortably Numb that was horrible.
I thought the feud had ended?
The lyrics are his, he can do what he wants with it. Being about mortality, there is a timelessness to it, ironically enough. I can see him performing this in his last phase of life, though the original recording had more life to it. It will be an interesting outreach to those who were there when the band launched, as Waters turns 80. He's the master of the Leitmotif, so he's circling around again. The same in a relative way, but he's older. And in his singing you can hear that he is indeed shorter of breath.
Clever Wordplay there
Yeah the song is his to butcher all he wants trying to be Leonard Cohen her it’s a piece of crap, just because he’s not written anything worth listening to since he left Floyd
Just because he can, doesn't mean he should. What he obviously can't do is come up with anything worth listening to since 1981.
I never missed the starting gun .....and had a great life , and onwards ....
@@michaeldobbs4249 A piece of crap?
Brilliant 👏
What made DSOTM so great was Roger's concept and lyrics, combined with the vocals of David Gilmour and Richard Wright, David's guitars, Richard's keyboards, Nick's drumming, Dick's Saxophone, Claire Torry's vocals, and Alan Parsons. It was the sum of all its parts.
This effort just sounds like a slightly improved version of a Roger Waters Demo tape.
(I bought the 50th anniversary boxed set. I'll throw a copy of this in and pretend it was the demo!)
Now I need to listen to DSOTM in it's entirety once again.
Hey Roger these really are great, new explorations of your initial vision.
Had this version been the original, it would have been forgotten.
It’s so great that after all these years we have the pleasure to hear the songwriter of possibly the greatest album ever created digging up more onto the lyrical themes and content of each song on the album. It’s like we’re entering Roger’s intrusive thoughts of when he made the song.
True, and yet ppl are just fucking complaining and talking about how blasfemic this is.
Instead of admitting how brave you have to be to try and rethink one of the best album ever
We love you Roger and we love what you're doing for Palestine and the Palestinians ❤️🇵🇸✌️ .
I loved your music before and now I have another reason to love it ❤
Awesome. Can't wait to hear the rest
Feeling like I'm looking at Pink Floyd from another point in the spacetime! Thank you Roger.
Amazing artistry
Very interesting version, but the original is just perfect
The orchestral atmosphere is just amazing
Heya you should look up The Doublejumps if you're a Pink Floyd fan
👍😃❤️☘️🕊️🕊️🕊️🕊️🕊️🕊️🕊️
The orchestral background is as depressing as this heavy-handed remake is pedantic, didactic, and super boring. Did I mention long? It is clear to me now what Rog and Gilmie had going on.
@@andreesengillies4427 it's a wonder how some people don't genuinely understand good music.
I'm sure you find classical music boring too
Amazingly beautiful. 👏 💗
If you think you could have done without David, Rich and Nick, you thought about it too late. Remember that if you are Roger Water, and you take the freedom to do and say whatever you want, you owe it to them too. I would never have bought "The dark side of the moon" in this version. Maybe I would have bought a book of your poems. I don't know!
Time was always my favourite track on DSOTM and this is a beguiling take on the original. The idea of an 80 year old man performing lyrics he wrote in his late 20s really adds a sense of poignancy to the song and the musical arrangement enhances the whole thing .
Can't wait to hear his take on Great Gig in the Sky ...suspect it will be
similar to The Mortality Sequence from the early live versions of Dark Side .
Pre ordered !
I thought this was absolutely brilliant. Great Gig in the Sky is by far my favorite song on DSOTM. I play it on my piano when I can't figure out how to handle my emotions....there's no "words", but it expresses everything. So on that dramatic note, I'm a little nervous about it...but I haven't been disappointed yet. I'm really glad he did this.
I'm listening to it again. It's amazing that Roger has added today's perspective to the masterful original and it's once again a masterpiece. It doesn't mimic the original version, but deepens it. The two versions speak to each other across time. It's beautiful. LP ordered. Looking forward to the whole album.
I like this far more than the original. Waters, a man who keeps young inside.
Ching Chong your opinion is wrong
Ching chong your opinons are wrong
Only Rodger Waters could come up with something like this. It's awesome!
I'd love it if Roger's made his own album in this format, his voice like a storyteller and the echoes of other voices. No guitar but that synth/keyboard. It doesn't show well when it's put against their best selling album but it could hold its own as an original album
Beautiful...Roger is Correct this reinterpretation is all about the lyrics and getting the ear to understand them and after 50 years he does a fantastic job of making them shine...👏
The melody of a song is important as well, but Roger Waters wasn't any good at writing melodies. That was down to David Gilmour.
@70ad89 Gilmours a brilliant musician and upto Wish you were here the whole band worked together beautifully until the cracks appeared..But to say Waters is no good at Melodies is ridiculous you obviously don't rate his solo work...
Many of us understood them before.
I always found them pretty easy to understand back when the song had incredible music and great vocals. Not sure why we needed a boring spoken word version set to cheap synthesizer from a meditation video.
@@JeromeAnselmo-c5eThis ain’t about music. This about songwriting. Please let one of the greatest songwriters OF ALL TIME, do his thing. His giving you poetry, if you want guitar solos go listen to David Gilmour solo music.
At almost his 80s, Roger is still doing a great piece of art, concurrent with modern trends and unique. I admire this man greatly!!!
Me too
100% rock icon legend
Shame this country of birth (England don't recognise his decades of musical.. via a knighthood... but lolol!.. could you see RW accepting it, I defiantly can't, bless that man made angel) huge world loving heart, I love all his music..his voice!!!...woah!!!
Not to mention how he trys his bestest to help achieve world unity & peace,
Bless him, he's my true hero
No. It's like he heard becks sea change and said I'm going to do this with a 50 year old piece of music I did as a collab with 3 other musicians and call it my own work of art.
Yes, he never did much compromise...
what modern trend is this concurrent with?
@@goranpope6008 how about modern world dystopia and the current political trends to lack empathy and reason
You are great ❤❤❤
Really dig the mellow feeling of it, the organ and strings are delightful
Can't agree about the orgam - lacklustre and soulless, not a patch on Rick Wright's playing. As it's meant to be, I suspect - Rog wouldn't want to deflect attention away from his own parts now, would he. Way to neuter an absolutely classic track.
@@copperfield3629 You still have the original song, Roger wanted to make a version he feels encapsulates better the feeling of what he wrote back then. You guys are overly sensitive over stuff that doesn’t affect you in any way

@@copperfield3629 “way to neuter” you’re acting like the original doesn’t exist anymore, this isn’t a difference in opinion, couldn’t care less if you disliked it
Absolutely wonderful 💎
Roger, it's just great!
This one really got me. I was so into the sound and the groove in the original version of this song that I never really payed real attention to the lyrics as I am doing in this version. Crazy how an arrangement can give you different feelings on the same words
I'm so glad he's completely re-worked and stylised these songs ... he's given them new life, creating completely new imaginigs of the songs but there's just enough of the originals to provide that sense of familiarity ... What I've heard so far from the redux album is both unique and brilliant.
I've listened to the original 100's of times..... and will continue to.
This gets once out of curiosity.
I'm part of the song now. My mind fills in the original guitar and other parts of the instrumentation.
The orchestration is probably my favorite part of this.
It appears to be more quiet and somber than the original. Well done Roger, can’t wait to hear it all in one listen.
Hey! Happy birthday my dear friend! Thanks to be a thinking men in this times of mediocre minds.
A very worming hug and congratulations and again thank you for your music, ideas and everything else.
Very very good. Absolutely refined and stunning version of this song. Can't wait to listen the whole album through
In this version, you can feel the passing time of our lives. Thanks Roger❤
And you couldn't in the original?
Of course too! But this version for me has more authenticity, because it is sung by a guy who is eighty years old and knows what life is about. Maybe what I'm writing is crude and obvious, but that's how I feel.
The once wild and mighty cat (this classic collaborative work) has lost teeth and claws
Unlike the redux of money I actually think this is a really nice fresh breath of fresh air. personally I still prefer the original but this is good in its own right. Well done Roger
Could not agree more. 'Money' was a mistake IMO, this one has the same vibe, but in this case it actually fits very well. However when applied to the whole album I'd say it's going to be... boring
Happy Birthday, Great Master of poetry and melody, outstanding Philosopher of our era!!!
Roger Waters,The ONE and ONLY. A supreme visionary..........SUPERB😊
Must be an amazing feeling to have written music and lyrics that have touched so very many people in an incredibly profound manner. Thank You.
And then spend 50 years insanely jealous because someone else sang them. So you then released your version, and it was fucking awful, and then you reminded everyone why David Gilmour is 10x more liked than you are.
