"I wish I had spent more time at work" said no one ever, on their death bed.
you got THAT right mate.
Wow! Sori looks really happy 😊 Pink Floyd is good for your soul 😎❤️
She does indeed, lol :)
Floyd just has that effect on people ☺
Gilmour is a monster on this song!
The moment you realize you've heard a song too many times.... when you can repeat the random banter at the end lol
"Hehehe i was in the right yes absolutely in the right, i certainly was in the right, i dont know i really drunk at the time" lol love the banter
One of the best base lines in history
Shine on You Crazy Diamond!
I'm hoping that you will react to Pink Floyd's "Wish You Were Here" album after you complete your DSOTM lyric breakdowns.
And Animals too. They need a buffer zone before The Wall.
DSOTM is fantastic, Animals and The Wall are great, but Wish You Were Here is my favorite Pink Floyd album imo.
One thing to keep in mind about the term "Under the sun" is that most people in the past had to work outside. Having a lighter complexion was a sign of having a good life. Having dark skin was a sign that you were a commoner/working class/farmer. So it can be also taken as a division of social class (e.g. "You live most your life under the sun" would be putting someone down).
Whoa! Good one
I know it was an insult back in the day but I wouldn't have it any other way now.
The funny thing is that its flipped now. If you have a tan its a sign of having free time spend outdoors. Those of us who work indoors rarely see the sun :P (that's why you have lots of people with vitamin D deficiency).
OK about halfway in: You guys are still taking the album a tad TOO literally ( in that it's the story of one person, it's not) but basically this song addresses the concerns of money and greed in a very tongue in cheek fashion.
It's about how we all tend to base our self worth and value on the things we own and how much money we have; how sure, we want charity for others but hey, "keep your hands off MY stack."
The last line is the most telling: "Money, so they say, is the root of all evil today. BUT, if you ask for a rise ( you want more income from your boss, or a tax cut from your government) it's no surprise they're giving none away ( nope, sorry, the rich are keeping your money, no raise for you.)"
Tommy Mac couldn’t have said it better.
Tommy Mac, well said. I think they totally missed the point of the song.
I don't think they totally missed the point so much as just took it at face value without understanding the dark humor behind it.
Tommy Mac they analyze things very well however you are right. Bands like Pink Floyd can’t be analyzed the same as someone like Metallica. A lot of metaphors and for lack of a better word(s) - artistic satire
First off, the rich isn't keeping YOUR money. That is their money. If you're worth more then 9 out of 10 times you'll get a raise. If you think you're worth more and you're not getting it you are free to go elsewhere. There's no one stopping you.
As an old guy, I DO enjoy your reactions/reviews of Pink Floyd. However, I do have one criticism. You seem to be rating/reviewing totally based on lyrics. Don't get me wrong - lyrics ARE important in good music, but IMO great music is mostly determined by the music, not the the lyrics. How anyone can rate "Money" without mentioning the creativity of the music is beyond me.
Pretty sure they listened to the album in its entirety in a different video. That's why =)
lol, only an American would consider Britain socialist. great review though.
America is very conservative, anything to left of ronald reagen is considered socialist.
@@hifijohn I wish
hifijohn I totally agree most people in USA think Hillary Clinton is a left wing extreme. Because they think she is a socialist. When she is more right wing than trump is, was or ever will be.
Even more so, they tend to confuse communism and socialism.
We (UK) must be communised becuase we care for the sick, rich or poor.
All these pink Floyd reactions are really trending on all the reaction channels..lol
Because they created beautiful music and had meaning, other bands that created great music will have their time.
Ikr, I just noticed it
@@derekwhite9932 no I meant as in seems like one channel initially did them and seen all the views and subs they got and jumped on the bandwagon. That's just what I feel like is happening anyway
That's fine, it is true in a way because they are very popular and people realize this is something that gets reaction, but I feel it's because it was beautiful; realistic music. It covers human ideas(troubles) in a way.
@@derekwhite9932 also don't get me wrong I love pink Floyd but the timing of channels doing the same reactions is very close lol
You guys need to check out how colossal this album was in the history of music Dark Side of the Moon was in the billboard charts continuously for 18 years and has sold 45 million copies
Actually, the whole album is great. It is also the best selling record of all time.
The whole of the DSOTM is about the cycle of life and the phases we each pass through. Money represents the materialistic part of our lives where we work, earn and consume, but it is done with a certain irony suggesting that there is much more to life than the accumulation of wealth.
I am so glad I found your channel, Thank you very much guys, you are a wonderfull deep breath of fresh air.
You just don't hear 7/4 time signatures on the radio anymore.....( minus the guitar solo). Floyd can do no wrong in my book.
7/8
TwinRavens is correct, it's 7/4
ua-cam.com/video/PJtoJ-LIU6g/v-deo.html From the horse's mouths
7/4 makes a lot more sense though, since you are counting 7 beats per measure...7/8 would be close to 3/4 time but not quite...like 3.5/4 lol
Definitely 7/4. Good way to think about it is 7/8 would feel like the measure is a bit too short, while 7/4 feels like the measure is too long
Wow. I really dig how the song led to your discussion of the restaurant experience in Boston. You two are cool!
This is the first time i have actually listened to your hour talk after a video and agreed with everything you have said :)
This album was from 1973 and still talked (loved) about today. Timeless. Revolutionary in 1973. I was there in 1973 and there was nothing like it at the time. Remember there was no electronics like today. Rewind a bit to Echo’s (medal album) and run through to the wall. You will not regret it.
One of the best Pink Floyd songs ever
Hey Vin & Sori, appreciate you taking the time and effort to review these Pink Floyd gems from my younger years! I saw Roger in Concert in 2017, David in 2016 (the 2 main guitarists and vocalists when Pink FLoyd was big in the 70s. David resurrected Pink Floyd in 1987 and toured the world (without Roger). Guys, try to catch either David or Roger in concert if they tour one more time, they still do the songs from this album and the others. Remember they are now in their 70s! Peace to you both man!
Love the way you link all the songs together into a storyline. Also love the way you have both taken a pretty retro band and embraced their music. I’d love to see you review The Division Bell (the song) as it’s something relatively new to compare.
I just wanted to say how much I am loving your reactions and reviews of each magnificent song off this timeless album. Thank you for all your hard work and dedication. I will hope you can review The Wall or Wish You Were Here.
Another beautiful job guys! The Pink Floyd reaction are “money”! 😉 When time allows, check out Shine On You Crazy Diamond I-V from Wish You Were Here. Something tells me that Sori will really dig it.
I agree wholeheartedly on your feelings on tips and people who work hard for their money. Great discussion!
Many people take this song for granted due to it's popularity but it's genius musically like so much of Pink Floyd's stuff.
P.s. I saw Roger Waters last year at his greatest hits tour basically and it was fantastic. not much time left to catch that considering the band member's ages
This song was number 1 in the entire USA for months and everyone really loved the whole Dark side of the moon album in the 70's.....I loved the album myself.....it is a thought provoking album.....Good vs Dark .....
(cant wait to see the other Dark Side of the Moon individual song reviews by you both.)
Definitely my favorite 7/8 groove.
There are always jealous haters out there. Appreciate the hard work you guys put in even if I don't always agree with your reactions or taste in music.
I adore this song. Seriously one of the most incredible prog grooves of all time.
Would love to see you guys react to Birthday Massacre's Superstition ♡
Great reaction as always Y’alls! ... there’s also an inherent British sarcasm to this song that David Gilmour’s voice and the music accentuates (with the sax and the guitar riffs being very “ostentatious” as well) ... remember that song “Jambi” by Tool? Floyd’s “Money” is kinda the ‘OG’ version of that... being really young, making a TON of cash, and what that can do to a person.... this is also the juxtaposition between British life in the 70’s (still recuperating from two world wars) vs American style capitalism and crass glitz at the time.
Hey Vin and Sori! Love the videos. Wanted to applaud you both for recognizing the difference between money, and the Lust for it. Also, those who WON'T work, and those who cannot. I work with Adults with Disabilities, and most of the time, they are not capable of holding a job. It's sad, but there are a LOT of people who need public funds to survive.
Most of the lyrics are sarcastic, they talk about greed and the hypocrisy of people that say that money is bad and yet they want more.
And England is far from socialist :) It's probably the second most capitalist country after USA (of course there are people that would consider even USA socialist :P )
mar mar I have agreed with nearly all vin and sori say on there reaction videos. then they said Britain was socialist.
How exactly isn't Britian socialist or far along the way to being a socialist society? Freedom of speech suppressed, freedom of press suppressed and or criminalized, disarmament of citizens to name just a few. So how is it not? Serious question. Thx
mar mar The US is far from being the most capitalist country, and the UK even farther.
The only people who seriously claim the US is the most capitalist country are ignorant. Usually because they're looking for a scapegoat.
and did we tell you the name of the game boy we call it riding the gravy train
We (UK) are a capitalised country that has compassion when it comes to health.
"I'm in a high fidelity first class travelling set..." is the best description of a rock and roll band ever.
Can’t wait till you guys do The Wall and Wish You Were Here. It’s amazing how different these albums all sound!
Do "Have a Cigar" by Floyd. That's my favorite. It's about the fakeness of record companies.
Awesome song
Oh by the way, which one's Pink?!
Roger Waters, who thought of himself as a Socialist at the time, had come to realize that he had become a capitalist. The song kind of deals with his own mixed feelings on it.
Loving these Pink Floyd reactions guys!
Living Colour - Cult of Personality
Insomnium - In the Groves of Death
Kamelot - Memento Mori
I grow up on Black Metal like Behemoth because I'm from Poland and I'm happy You enjoy those music. Today I'm 40 but I still like good brutal and loud music not only from the black metal flag. It's pleasure to see how You focus on every song.
Let Gods bless You!
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
When the rich say they got rich because of hard work, ask "whose?"
One of my favorite Pink Floyd's songs!
I've seen dozens of videos of you guys, and was dumbfounded just now when I realized I'm not subbed. Woops. Fixed that.
Great analysis of this tune...😁😁😁
When tips are split they are often shared with the bussers and kitchen help who don't otherwise get any tips, but who make it possible for then wait staff to get theirs.
Nice, a week of Pink Floyd. Allegaeon: Proponent for sentience III should be a logical follow up to see the evolution of sophisticated music.
You're a beautiful human Sori.
Listen to pink floyds echoes live at pompeii both parts.It's one of the most psychedelic progressive rock songs you will ever experience.
Chris F Best jam ....ever!! No audience just God, cameras in close and tight...nothing contrived and fake, this is what we do and we’re flawless attitude.
I've heard people who react to this and actually say: Why would you play in a place where are no people?" Yes...millennials. I feel bad for them, yet want to punch most of them. Technically, I am one...but share NO characteristics with them. I like real music, I work hard, I don't whine about everything, I hate soy...I should've been born in the 60's or 70's, instead of the 80's. DAMMIT!!!!!
Hey guys great channel! Your insights to this music are so interesting. As an old guy I remember sitting with buddies in ‘73 doing this also😂 also want to add that my daughter high school did away with valedictorian and class rankings 😡
¡Lo más grande!
U guys have a bunch of followers because your legends. You guys are real and you care, your putting out quantity and quality, you can reduce your load just don't lose your quality or you'll be like the other reaction channels, love yas
UK is far from socialist btw, maybe back when this was made mid 70's, but all changed in the 80's. and a LOT of Pink Floyd lyrics are sarcasm, "British Humour" you might say. there is a core of honesty and depth, but overlayed with sarcasm :)
Should review each song on Wish You Were Here, Animals, and the Wall! :)
One of my favorite Pink Floyd songs.
Blood Eagle Wings - Anthrax
Longest running album ever on billboards top 200, from 1973 to 1988, over 900 weeks
Ironically not long after this came out, the good old Government came along and took a giant slice of their pie.
And like good socialists they buggered off to France as tax exciles 😅
Omg ya'll need to react to On The Turning Away or Poles Apart. Very emotional songs and the solo on Poles Apart is the tits.
Man I love it when y'all listen to Pink Floyd, especially this song. Your show is so real too. Screw censorship, I love how y'all drive the point home with the more colorful metaphors of the English language. I like when you review High Hopes too, I thought I was the only one that teared up to that song. Pink Floyd is my favorite band btw. Jimi Hendrix is my favorite guitarist. There is no end to the list of bands that I love and respect though in a wide spectrum.
Here's a band I haven't seen mentioned, Blindside. I believe they're a Christian rock band from Sweden. I was into some of their songs in the early 2000's, though not a Christian. "Caught in Glimpse" and "Pitiful" are pretty great. Really getting into your channel Vin and Sori. Keep on keepin' on!
Hear how that sax sounds like mister big showing up. 🤘👽🤘
As a 72 year old former hippie, "Money" went along perfectly with a little weed. The lyrics are stupendous (an old hippie term). Enjoyed your reaction, but your reaction reminded me of a song by Queen, titled "Dead on Time". Goes right along with your commentary about how people are rushing around and wind up with an early death. Might want to check it out.
Great reaction! Really enjoyed it. A quick note: The Father of Modern Capitalism was Adam Smith--a Brit who descended from a long line of Britains. England may have socialized medicine (which we need desperately in the U.S.) but they are hardly Norway, or even France for that matter.
You definitely got a new sub!
Pink Floyd is simply the best. Thank you for reviewing the entire album. Some of the best lyrics of all time. Please react to Savatage - St. Patrick (very good lyrics as well) thank you
Britain & the rest of the Europe isn´t socialist & the countries that were, haven´t been since the 80´s. Having universal health care, paying people a decent wage, taking care of the weakest & having those who earn the most pay a little more in taxes (as they do in most of Europe) isn´t socialist, is simply the right thing to do if you want people to feel like they live in a fair society.
"Britain's socialist"... WTF!! The father of capitalism was a british... Adam Smith. LOL!
As a committed atheist, y'all really make me feel better about religious people. I also understand that you are very atypical, but you open my heart to being more patient when someone is trying to jam faith without consideration down my throat.
Next song in progression is Us and Them of the Dark Side of the Moon:
Lyrics:
Us (us, us, us, us) and them (them, them, them, them)
And after all we're only ordinary men
Me
And you (you, you, you)
God only knows
It's not what we would choose (choose, choose) to do (to do, to do)
Forward he cried from the rear
And the front rank died
And the general sat
And the lines on the map
Moved from side to side
Black (black, black, black)
And blue (blue, blue)
And who knows which is which and who is who
Up (up, up, up, up)
And down (down, down, down, down)
And in the end it's only round 'n round (round, round, round)
Haven't you heard it's a battle of words
The poster bearer cried
Listen son, said the man with the gun
There's room for you inside
"I mean, they're not gonna kill ya
So if you give 'em a quick short, sharp, shock
They won't do it again. Dig it?
I mean he get off lightly, 'cause I would've given him a thrashing
I only hit him once! It was only a difference of opinion, but really
I mean good manners don't cost nothing do they, eh?"
Down (down, down, down, down)
And out (out, out, out, out)
It can't be helped that there's a lot of it about
With (with, with, with), without
And who'll deny it's what the fighting's all about?
Out of the way
It's a busy day
I've got things on my mind
For the want of the price
Of tea and a slice
The old man died
E
Sori: "We need to not love money more than we love people." _ NAILED IT. And that is pretty much the message of the song although as I said, it's done in a tongue in cheek way.
Agreed...but a socialist wants you to give me more money so they can love you more. Problem is a parent can love too much.
What's funny is that they started commenting about the song then they went into their own lives and then they talked about the state of the country's economy and how it relates to them and there own experiences. I think Floyd's music is great for making people talk and reflect on the state of their lives and the condition of the world and I think that is what great art is all about
Check out these songs:
Poets of the Fall - Carnival of Rust
NOFX - Generation Z and You Will Lose Faith
Avenged Sevenfold - Demons, Tension and Until the End
Stick to Your Guns - Amber, Better Ash than Dust, the Better Days Before Me and 3 Feet from Peace
Wot a classic song awesome tune
Fun fact...
In the song "Another Brick in the Wall Pt.2" when the teacher stops the class and reads out the students poem. The words he reads aloud are lyrics in this song.
I'm in love with Sori
I would appreciate if you could please do either Borknagar - Colossus ua-cam.com/video/qVPmly9Gctc/v-deo.html or Windir - Journey to the End ua-cam.com/video/Rx1gvEW2N1I/v-deo.html I don’t think you’ll regret any of them! Remember to turn on subtitles if you decide to do the first one.
PLEASEEE react to: Dark Tranquility - Lost to apathy or Misery's crown
Avantasia - The scarecrow
Sonata Arctica - Don't say a word or Black Oceans, White Pearl
Sabaton - Primo Victoria
And Bathory - enter the eternal fire and the lake (so you can see their both eras)
The 1st Pink Floyd song my Dad showed me. At the time thought it sounded goofy dumb and outdated and know I love this masterpiece and its message. The world is all about Money. Even if it means your life.
Reaction Pink Floyd - high hopes
Please
YES
true but live at pompei 2016
I would like a reaction to High Hopes as well, also Pink Floyd - When The Tigers Broke Free and Pink Floyd - Two Suns In The Sunset.
Take the dive PF “Animals” start with “Dogs”... love to see lyrical breakdown and reaction emotion packed Guitar:)
I don't think the album is entirely a thematic progression. I really think Money is just a little excursion. A side thought. Breath, On the Run, Time & Great Gig are definitely a sequence. Everything else is just different ideas that segue into each other.
Until we get to Brain Damage & Eclipse, which re-connect to back to the thematic arc & bring it full circle.
Key part to thinking about the song is that rich music artists and actors during that period actively lived outside the country to avoid paying British taxes.
As far as the 'working hard' part, It doesn't cover two salient points of a late stage capitalist society: The children of the rich, who get it handed to them for literally nothing more than genetics, and people who make their money by actively hurting society, such as when the banks were pushing subprime mortgages on people to pump their numbers and then demanding the govenrment bail them out when it crashed. Or a CEO who 'creates value' for his company by putting people out of work. Or a investment guy who jumps the price of lifesaving drugs to cover the big loan he got to buy the drug company. I won't even mention the number of people who have to work two or more jobs or work well past retirement age to keep afloat because said CEO can't see a way to pay the workers who make the value.
React to the album 666 by Aphrodites Child. Despite what you might think based on the title, it's actually a proggy, psychedelic concept album, depicting the events of the biblical book of Revelation (the album is subtitled The Apocalypse of John 13/18). With you being so religious and all, Id be interested in seeing your thoughts on it. Like if you guys wanna see it happen
This is a commentary on capitalism. Dave Gilmore sold his house and built a housing estate for the homeless. He also recently sold some of his guitars for over 20 million pounds which he donated to charity.
Roger has raised awareness of inequality and put out a stack of anti war stuff for years
after you reacted to Brain Damage and Eclipse you knocked marks off the whole album because of this track bit you both seem to be rocking out to Money ?
Ouch! That breakdown hurts. Oh, the irony....
BOY, did this album need this song in the middle.
Vin's word of the week: Transcendence
Are you ever going to react to Leprous? It's about time really..
Two versions of money one is on dark side of moon & last one is on: A Collection of Great Dance Songs , because EMI ( Capitol Records) not give the right put on this greatest hits dance songs & david gimour re-recorded the track himself, guitars, keyboards, bass guitar and vocals and co-producing !
Y'all 2 are the shit. But if i may ask, i recommend going back to Pantera and checking out No Good (Attack The Radical). ❤❤ much love to yall
Vin, Sory, I really like your interpretations of the thematics of this wonderful album and your attempt to imagine a sort of plot in it. I think there we have a sort of overinterpretation because Dark Side of The Moon is a concept album, not a rock opera, and thus it lacks a real plot in a cinematographic sense. In fact, the songs of Dark Side shows a collection of things and events that drives the men crazy: the frenzy of the modern world, the money, the urge for success, the aging, the incommunicability, the war, the fear of death, the religions and so on. But, I repeat, I really like your interpretation. Anyway, Money in particular has very, very sarcastic lyrics (the sarcasm reach the zenith in the video, where you see, besides other images of luxury and decadence, a factory where the Dark Side vinyls are printed!), and should not be taken too literally.
Going prog.. you should check out Porcupine tree! Anesthetize live from Tillburg? Maybe also a runthrough on Radiohead? Whole OK computer? Or maybe one of their less famous? The tourist?
Many people have been asking for that one since April/May..... don't count on it any time soon....
What your talking about is layed out in Atlas Shrugged. Long book but it breaks down the ills of "From each according to his ability, to each according to his needs"
Vin & Sori
I have been spamming your videos the past 2 days. Your breakdowns are rather interesting. I was curious as to how you would analyze an old true metal song about Omnipotence by Stratovarius called Alpha and Omega.
" HIGH HOPES" OFF PINK FLOYD THE DIVISION BELL.
What do you guys think about the parable Jesus tells about the workers hired at different times of the day getting the same pay? I ask because I think it can be one of the more uncomfortable parables for us to hear. Not to mention the passage about it is easier to get a camel through the eye of a needle than a rock man to heaven.
By "you guys" is that an open invention to any one? If so this is how I see the first one I take as a lesson to not too worry what everyone else is getting, he made a deal with each man, the deal he made with you was for a full days work for X amount and to the other man he made a deal for the rest of the day X amount as well , you have your deal he has his in other words none of your business, but I think it teaches you to do your best at all times and to always fulfill your obligations ( you made the deal you were happy with it now do as you said you would).
As for the eye of the needle I see it as i learned, in those times city's were walled in and they had two gates a big gate in the front (it was always locked at night for safety reasons) but in the back they had a small gate (called the needle gate) that could only fit one man at a time or one camel unloaded, So if a man did some stealing or shady deals that he did not want everyone else to know about he would have to wait for night time and use the needle gate and when he came with his camel fully loaded he would have to unload the goods off of the camel and carry his goods, one item at a time then get his camel threw the gate and reload his ill gotten goods on his camel to finish his day or night. So to me he is saying a rich man needs to unload his ill gotten wealth before he can enter the kingdom of heaven...
Vin my man ive been listening to larry sharpe who is running for govenor of new york no where near my area either way as far as the political money as ya'll were talking about it i couldn't help but to think bout things ive heard this guy talk about its worth a listen i first watched him on JRE check him out or not just a thought
Sense you Guys is on The Pink Floyd Vibe i Strongly Recommend the Song "Mother"
You should watch the official video to this song.
Buy me a football team is referring to a american football team.
This songs all about how bad money is.
Someone wanting to buy jets football teams etc while there's so much poverty around makes the point.
