Its crazy how one of my favourite albums is the one that scares me the most.
Existential crisis time
Lateralus by Tool can provoke an opposite reaction. It's very comforting.
BlackDogsMatter weird how on substances this album feels more comforting and that album is scarier but has the opposite effect when sober
Same thats why I love it so much
Reality is always scary
_The time is gone, the song is over. Thought I'd something more to say._
I want that on my tombstone.
My father's (he was a trumpet player, composer and conductor) last words to me were "Well dear, I seem to have run out of lyrics". That's not on his tombstone, wish it was.
The time has come* :)
I want “Dig Me Up!”
Serai3 My tombstone is probably gonna have the lyrics of the Bohemian Rhapsody Operatic Section.
“Beelzubub has a devil put aside from me”
I want all of Pink Floyd's lyrics on my tombstone
Welp, it’s existential crisis time
Enjoy!
I just had an existential crisis that lasted around 3 and a half months. It finally went away about 2 weeks ago, but I think it might be coming back....
Thats hot. Thats hot
i feel you
Benjamin F. I hope you’re ok bro!!
Time... this album soon will be 50 years old.
3 years is all
great art is timeless
This is album is timeless
omg
@@sylyjoly honestly a lot of great art is super time relevant and not timeless as well.
"I don't know, I was very drunk at the time."
"Were you in the right?"
@@bradfilms8278 "Absolutely, I certainly was in the right!"

Damn dude your editing has soared through the roof
Ian C agree, it’s actually so impressive
It's that curiosity stream sponsorship kicking in
Pink Floyd: “no one told when to run, you missed the starting gun” guitar solo
Me hearing it for the first time: woah...
This song always gets me thinking and reminds me not to waste time, but also not to desperately chase too much.
Me hearing it for the hundredth time: woah...
same bro
Yeah it still doesn’t matter in the end bro
Dustin Bradshaw for real. I don’t listen to it very often so I can recreate that feeling. Nothing fancy or ‘difficult’ besides the tone and emotion. You can find David playing it isolated on video. I think from the VH1 classic album series.
About 3 years ago I bought a pristine LP of Dark Side of the Moon and hearing it fully for the first time, it absolutely blew my mind. This album changed my life and I'll forever remember the moment I heard it for the first time.
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.
I'm only 18, and yet I can already feel those ten years gone by.
Use the time you've got because it only slips away faster from here
I’m 20 and can tell u it continues to get worse, faster. But it also doesn’t bother me quite as much as 4-2ish years ago I guess.
MadmanMortonYT the fact that you have enough awareness to recognize the importance of the present moment is quite a personal victory. Use your awareness well, and you will be able to be reasonably happy (and occasionally extremely happy).
Wait till you're much older. 2000 Felt like 10 years ago, it's insane. It's all relative, though.
Elijah gast I turn 30 in just a couple months, and believe me that it gets worse. I still find it horrifying when I tell myself I'll do something or have some time for something before I'm 30...only to have realization sink in a few moments later.
David: I’m gonna lay solo in the middle.
Polyphonic: *beautiful metaphor*
Wow, it's almost like there was intended symbolism, because songs can do that, but naaah, let's just use the same format that we always do without making any real statement!
@@daishoryujin95 nah bud it's a goofy joke im sure
DAISHORYUJIN 95 r/wooosh
Yeah maybe they just thought it fit there, half of pink floyd songs from their more famous albums have solos just about anywhere in the song anyway
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. This song changed my life.
The first Gilmour solo punches you in the gut as you hear that painful lyric.. it’s just incredible
Counter-Weight Medias yeah
This album is absolutely terrifying
No, this album is not terrifying, it's only a warning message.
Claude Pagé
Yeah but I'm sure you can see why that might be a terrifying prospect for some people.
Its terrifying but beautiful, just like life.
This gave me a lot of anxiety. This whole song gives me anxiety.
This whole album gave me a lot of anxiety
anxiety? I always feel so free and energetic when I hear this songs, some of my absolute favorites.
I think it’s a mix of sheer terror but also sheer amazement. It’s kinda scary but it’s kinda awesome
I always feel my troubles go away. We do not matter, life is short, why worry? :)
You mean it makes you feel, you just happen to not wanna feel those feelings, anxiety is all you, hard to admit but its true, least now you know you can get over that hill because its within you
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"
OMG that's one of my favorite song of all TIME. I was anxious for that, and still for Great Gig in the Sky
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!
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.
No matter what you think of him, you got to admit Waters is an excellent writer.
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.
Bro polyphonic's words are almost as creative as the songs. Like these videos fit the songs' tone, mood, etc so perfectly
My all time favorite Floyd song. It's just individual perfection in a perfect album.
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
It's not that we're closer to death, it's that we come to realize that we have so much time during the containment and yet our ability to waste our time is still remarkable. We're actually surprised by our ability to waste time no matter how much time we have.
@Stellvia Hoenheim Good for you then. But whenever there is a crisis, that means alot of people are pushed onto the streets, and more people dies. Remember economy isn't only numbers, it also means lives. And others struggle to get buy, life becomes more difficult to them.
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.
Favorite song on the album btw starts off with the most annoying alarm clocks in the world that I’ve listened to over a million times
Last year i spent a week analyzing this song as my final project of music theory. What an experiance. This is an incredible series...
For a project we have to next year I was gonna go through every song on the album 😅
@@mauve9266 If its music theory, bewarned! It's incredibly tough! But so so satisfying when figuring out the song!
Bro may i read your analysis
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.
This has given me a lot to think about on the toilet
happy pooping
Hope stocked up on tp
DSOTM transforms you to the dimensions that none can explain. A timeless classic.
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.
After all that anxiety I think, it still keeps it, but is also in a sense comforting
One of my absolute favorite songs of all time. The meaning really hits you in your mid-twenties.
Yeah, my dad made me listen to this album, blindfolded with headphones, start to finish, when I was 12. I still thought it rocked, and it has influenced my musical style directly...
But yeah, it wasn't until my late 20s that the lyrical content really spoke to me.
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.
When I see your video on “The Dark Side on the Moon Project”. It’s really cool and keeps adding layers that I haven’t seen (or in the case of this album, heard) before. I hope to see more of what you’ve been digging up, because this archeological dig in this album really reveals what the message is on each track and what the overlaying message of the album is trying to say.
Polyphonic being a good canadian kid plugging matthews at 0:55
Great video btw, love Time.
Terry Fox, too.
It ain't a tragedy reaching death doing what you love
Joe Hernandez
Or _who_ you love...🌚
That's true, but the tragedy is that most people spend their lives not doing what they love.
@@ASpooneyBard that's not even the point honestly IT'S JUST TAKING THE JOURNEY AND BELIEVING AT THE END OF IT ALL YOU ARE AT PEACE
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.
Epic
This song makes you feel like you’re experiencing the life of every single organism that ever existed at the same time
Love this series!
One of my most profound fears is lying on my death bed and having the epiphany that I’ve missed out on life. That scares me more than death in some ways. Ironically enough my fear of death scares me away from experiencing life.
that is very true, I feel like I wasted to much time and I'm only 14
This song hits me so hard every single time.
Far and away one of the most formative songs in my upbringing. Glad to watch this in-depth reflection on it. Both the song and lyrics meant everything to me from the time I first heard it as a teenager.
I swear, this guitar solo brings me to tears. David Gilmour is an idol.
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.
For me, Time is THE Pink Floyd song. All for members get their time to shine, the lyrics are representative of how deep Pink Floyd's music is and the vocals are godly. The guitar solo is madly underrated, even by fans and "experts". For me, it's the best Gilmour solo and by that my favourite solo of all time. No pun intended though. It's literally transcendental and emotional like not many other pieces and deserves more recognition than it gets. In fact, it's impossible to overrate or exaggerate the solo, the song and the whole record. Just otherworldly perfection.
Great breakdown of one of the most iconic Floyd songs. This song has more relevance today then it ever had. The line in the reprise "The tolling of the Iron bell etc." is one of my favourite lyrics in the song. I heard once that this was Waters sharing his anti religious sentiments. The "softly spoken magic spell" making reference to how religion can entrance and deceive people. Always thought that was kind of cool.
This song always gains relevance as the years pass, no matter who is listening. The one thing we have in common is we all age and die.
Ask not who the bell tolls for, for it tolls for thee.
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.
Thank you for being the only video channel host that I can stand. Keep up the good work
Me: Watching a video about time
Also me: Realizing that I’ve spent over ten minutes of my life while watching the video
Those 10 minutes weren't wasted, those 10 minutes were well spent
Skriller sorry I completely forgot i was talking about Pink Floyd. You cant say wasted when talking about Pink Floyd. I’m changing my wording to spent
If I remember right this was the very first Pink Floyd song I’ve heard ever and was aware of it so it holds a very special place in my heart
Time is one of my favorites among many Pink Floyd songs. This makes me want to watch Dark Side of Oz again.
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".
This is my favorite song of all time
I listened to this song/this entire album on repeat literally all day when I was around 9 years old. I was trapped in my room usually and all I had was an ipod shuffle. Pink Floyd basically shaped my musical talent and this song gives me so much nostalgia and goosebumps every time. I wouldn’t be where I am now without this song.
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
My favorite track on this album and Floyd in general. Ticking clocks, the solo and the reprise make it a pretty unique listen.
"Time" is my all-time favorite song. Thank you for this write-up on it.
Bought the album on vinyl just last Saturday and I can say I think this is the best album I’ve bought, not my favourite though, regardless, this album is a masterpiece
Bought the album on vinyl in 1975 and sorely wish I still had that copy. I loved those old Hipgnosis covers, especially the gatefolds. Had endless stoner fun discussing the details with my best friends.
What is your favorite?
As Pink Floyd says, time is universal.
Can we all agree this is one of the best guitar solo of all TIME?
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.
time is possibly my favourite song ever.
These videos are amazing, I wait in eager anticipation for each and every one of these. Not only that, but your whole channel, absolutely love it and thanks to you I've expanded both my musical knowledge and taste! Thanks for everything you do man, you're amazing!
Your videos are just getting better and better! I love looking forward to the next one. :)
Thank you so much! I look forward to every new episode.
I love your work, need more stuff like this
One of the reason I am attracted to english is that there is a phrase called enjoy the time
Great video. So many details in the lyrics that I never noticed before!
Brilliant video! This is one of my favorite songs.
Great content as always!!! Professionally presented too! I can hardly wait for great gig in the sky. Thanks for what you do!🎸🥁🤟🏻
Thank you for making this!! Time is probably my favourite song of all time and i was beyond excited when i saw the notification! I am looking forward to hear you discuss another songs from this album. Also, please consider making more of these, i feel like there are so many albums that deserve to be described in a way you do it!!
Can’t wait for the next video 😭 great gig in the sky is one of my fav songs from this album 😭
Incredible series and video. Your channel is amazing. Good work.
That bass rumble from the nebula ad! I felt if down my spine 😯
i love this series so much thanks!
Your videos analysing songs, albums and artists are the best in UA-cam, really great content.
Man, you are doing such a great job! Marvelous! Thank you, thank you, thank you! :)
Your videos get better and better.. Amazing work
This is probably one of my favourite songs of all time. Such a good feeling
Thanks for doing this series on Dark Side my man, it's my favourite album of all time and means a lot to me and many people. This episode in particular got me good in the feels
Best video so far. It fitted like a glove for the moment we’re in. Time is the same for all of us and the only variable is what you do with it. I hope i have time to see more of these videos.
Thanks for such a useful perspective! Keep the awesome work fella!
That transition into the Breathe reprise is probably my favorite moment on the album. David’s “Home, home again” is such an eargasm
You’ve become my favorite channel on UA-cam dude. Excellent work, beautiful analysis, curious exploration. Looking forward to seeing where you can take your gifts in the future.
Man! What a video! Great great great job!!! This piece of art named The Dark Side Of The Moon deserves your work!
The reference to the tolling of the iron bell at the end always reminds me of the end of the poem “For Whom The Bell Tolls”:
“…send not to know
For whom the bell tolls,
It tolls for thee.
I just want to say thank you. I find it very difficult to express how I feel, but i love this album to death and i can never explain why it resonates for me. but you just made that audible for me. thanks again
Awesome! Thanks for sharing! 👍😎🎸
Absolutely love the song thank you for this amazing breakdown 💯
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
My favorite from the album. You're doing a great job with the series.
I've been waiting a long TIME for this particular part of the project & it was as good as I expected.From one of the best albums of all TIME.
Your editing is so quality, thanks for all the work
The best song on the best album
This song spoke to me more than any song. It was the song that really introduced to me to Pink Floyd. The lyrics and the cathartic blast of the Solo. This song is a godamn masterpiece
When I see these videos post, it’s all I can do not to watch rt away. You’re a wizard on the editing floor. Outstanding content as usual 👌🏼
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.
One of my favorite songs ever!
I don’t know how do you make these videos, but I love it, I truly feel touched by it... 🤘❤
You made a great video and I love your look into the song. But honestly, those graphics are amazing!
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.
