  • The great great great gig in the sky, this was.
    WOW. Those vocals, incredible singers… Outstanding vocal performances, which presence, such intensity and feel pair with such a beautiful arrangement.
    I love non-lyric singing, and now I love it even more. Such a big experience watching this.

      On the album this track follows "Time" which perhaps adds some context.
      This is a window to when time runs out.

    Clare Torry, the original vocalist during the recording of the album, was told only, by the band that she was to represent vocally and without words the five emotional stages one goes through when are dying. First, Denial, than Anger, Bargaining, Depression and finally Acceptance.She improvised this masterpiece in just two takes.

      Clare's mind-blowing performance of "Great Gig in the Sky" is on the album "Dark Side of the Moon." She set the mark to be topped by anybody who cared to try. This trio performed a wonderful rendition, as soul-stirring as Ms. Torry's so many years ago. Both versions are entirely captivating and beautiful.

    The song of pain, being frightened and scared of death, fighting to stay and not accept the inevitable. Then it finally hits - submission to the inevitable that we all face - that's what it's saying to me. the journey within to find peace and acceptance. I have seen them live many times over the years, but I still get goosebumps and teary eyes - just like you - welcome to the Pink Floyd world.

    Great reaction Sabina!! Besides the original (with Clare Torry singing the entire thing) this is my favourite version!! Sam Brown (first), Durga McBroom (second), Claudia Fontaine (third & regretfully RIP!) are the 3 lovely and marvelous voices that bring this to life!!
    Let the tears flow!! I know I do. It's a song all about dying...so the emotion is all tied to that.
    This song, on a really great sound system, in a dark room, eyes closed is like a religious experience! Cheers.

    And you selected this version, good job girl. David is playing a lap steel guitar. AND these ladies sing their guts OUT!! AND at 6:20 something David stops playing and just watches her finish singing!! SO powerful....... Pink is great!!!!! Peace to you! And Merry Christmas!!!!!! Take care and stay safe!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It does make sense!!! But I suggest you allow it to settle into you AND sleep on it. Pink is a tad heavy at times!! They did./do things no one else did or do!!! Greatest rock band EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Bye...

    Brown released her debut album Stop! in 1988, and in this regard, she released several studio albums, one live album, one EP and three compilations, as well as three albums as part of the Homespun band.
    In 2007, she had serious problems with her singing voice, after which she stopped recording and singing live.
    Sam founded a ukulele club in 2010 and has expanded to several clubs in Oxfordshire, Dorset, London and online that continue to thrive.

    Sabina, both you and the Floyd are wonderful! The word that comes to mind for me is authenticity both in their creation and in your reaction. I'm so happy that you mentioned the idea that singing preceded speaking in the development of human beings as a species as this is not a well-known theory (but one I have subscribed to for many years). You also mentioned that you had some difficulty in finding the right words to describe how you felt but I think this is perfectly understandable. Music is beyond words since it is the fundamental source of communication and speech (and words) are derived from them. Neuroscientists tell us that the ability to create and appreciate music is found in the right hemisphere of the brain and speech in the left hemisphere. Thus, music makes itself heard without the need (and control) of speech. Sorry to prattle on!

      I was blessed to see Dark Side of the Moon in its entirety twice by Pink Floyd, with the classic lineup in 1975 and then without Roger Waters on the Pulse Tour in 1994. Both times were utterly outstanding!

    If you watch the Dark Side of the Rainbow, this is the song that plays when Dorothy gets scooped up and carried away by the tornado. She watches the farmhouse get ripped apart while the cranky old Miss Gulch morphs into the Wicked Witch.

    This track is an absolute classic, and I say that as a Pink Floyd fan of many years. Vocally this is as challenging as it gets. Sam Brown gives it a good go but frankly , the original studio recording with Clare Torry is the benchmark. A beautiful choice of song Sabina, and a song that can trigger all sorts of emotions and pleasures. Nicely done.

    When Richard Wright, the keyboardist, died in 2008, it was this song that was sung at his funeral by Durga Mc Broom. This was his express wish during his lifetime. The rumor persists that none other than Jon Lord accompanied on the piano.

    That's the best version of what is one of the most beautiful and unique pieces of music ever created. It makes me weep every time I hear it. Just a piece of trivia, the first singer's name is Sam Brown. She had a massive worldwide hit of her own in the late 80s called 'Stop'. It's a fantastic song, and her vocal is beyond words. Check it out.

    This version gets a lot of play simply because it is filmed. The definite version is sung by its co-creator. Clare Tory improvised much of the song, and it is her version which is on the album. Please listen to her version.

    Great Gig in the Sky is about dying and the emotions of dealing with as much. When the lights change, so do the emotions in the process of it all.

    Another example of how Dark Side of the Moon was one of the first concept albums. This is an outstanding performance, but as others have pointed out, it's Clare Torry on the studio recording that is the one that is considered the best. To really get the full impact of Dark Side is to listen from beginning to end non-stop, laying back with headphones, and whatever will help you chill-lax.

    This was an incredible performance, Pink Floyd sure was beyond belief all 4 times I saw them, this is but a sample of their many, many live performances, both audio and video, available on You Tube. They always had great musicians on tour with them from the the mid 70s on and their sound, lights and special effects are second to none in Rock and they are certainly in the conversation as greatest band period. That is true but as others will mention, you do need to hear this tune with the original vocalist Clare Torey doing the 'stages of death' vocals as part of the all time classic album Dark Side of the Moon. You owe it to yourself to listen to it sometime in its entirety. It is so great that such music stands the test of time and appeals to all listeners, no matter how old, where they are from or musical preference, when they hear them, they are fans! Enjoy. 🎵🎸🎤🎹🎷🎶

    3 incredible backup singers = 1 Clare Torry improvising for an hour with just a few instructions from the band, she did 2 full takes and reportedly gave up on a third take saying in effect she'd already given it her all, she was paid £30 and she apologized thinking she didn't give them what they wanted.
    Didn't know they used her work until she saw the record in the store. Looking at the liner notes there was nothing about her contribution, when it really is half the song. It was on the Billboard 200 albums chart for 736 nonconsecutive weeks. Some say that it represents the stages of dying. If you note the recorded voice of the man stating 'I'm not afraid of dying, why should I be, we've all got to go sometime...'
    From 2005: "Torry provided the improvised vocal on The Great Gig In The Sky, and was paid the standard fee of £30 for her work on January 23rd 1973. However, some thirty-one years later she claimed that she composed the song, and asked the High Court for monies she believed were due to her, a half-share of copyright ownership and a 50 per cent share, possibly worth millions, of past and future income.
    Torry said they (the band and EMI) had breached her copyright and asked for damages and for "all illicit copies of the song to be destroyed". This could have resulted in the album being withdrawn from sale temporarily.
    This week, the High Court judged on the side of Ms Torry, and have awarded her a half-share on copyright ownership of the song. The amount of the out-of-court settlement has not been disclosed, prompting much speculation as to the amount."
