You can thank Alan Parsons, founder of "The Alan Parsons Project", for the excellent sound engineering on this album.
Y en Atom Heart Mother es un integrante más. Coincido contigo.
And for that reason they should react to Time by Alan Parsons Project, they gonna discover why!
Alan Parsons, Peter James, and Chris Thomas
also Alan was supposed to produce Wish You Were Here, but declined and started the APP.
The Alan parson project, the Eye in the sky... Studio band
I never knew this but it makes perfect sense!
I went through some “trips” myself with Dark Side of the Moon back in the early 70’s!! Now, at 64, I just smile & listen. Definitely one the greatest! Thanks for this reaction.
me too on my lazy boy 67 listening! saw them in concert around 1980 Madison Sq garden did the Trips an anything else i could get my hands on an still above ground!
One of my favorite songs from one of the greatest albums of all time. I saw them in concert at Veteran's Stadium in Philadelphia in 1988 when I was 16. When the chorus hits, the red colored lights that were all pointing in at the center of the screen behind the band all spun around, turned bright white and faced the audience lighting it up. It was a profound experience, one I will NEVER forget.
Haha, nice I was there too, senior year! We took the High Speed Line across from Jersey.
I saw them in '94 in Clemson SC on The Division Bell tour (pretty much the same show as in '88) and that surely was a spectacle to witness! That was much more an event than a concert! 🤘🏼💙🤘🏼
Saw the Division Bell tour in ‘94 at Giants Stadium. Wow. High Hopes was my favorite performance at that show.
This song is timeless. The lyrics can relate to any decade of current events. Thumbs up for this choice 👍
That's both good and bad 😭
There aren't many albums that I do believe NEED to be experienced in order and in a single sitting. Pink Floyd is a band that constructs these things that way. Shit is like an opera or a musical.
Most definitely!
One of my favorite things is to sit down and listen to a Pink Floyd album front to back.
Dark Side Of The Moon, Wish You Were Here and The Wall is probably the best run of back to back albums ever!
Dont forget Animals!!!
Yes!!🙂
@@rickcain4736might be the best of the run too!
Meddle, Obsecured By Clouds, Dark Side, Wish You Were Here
Between March 1, 1973 to November 30, 1979, Pink Floyd released "The Dark Side of the Moon", "Wish You Were Here", "Animals", and "The Wall". What must of it been like for other bands of the era? "Oh, Pink Floyd just released another album, f**k it, we'll drop ours next year," LOL
An absolute classic. So far ahead of its time it still sounds fresh today. Dark side of the moon was a work of genius. Saw them live at Wembley 1986....i was completely mesmerised
@martinm1231 either way it's a classic.
What a great way to start my Friday!! Thanks guys. Probably one of my top 5 Pink Floyd songs. The sounds, the feeling, the lyrical meaning...it's pure perfection! (as is this whole album). The sax definitely adds to the beauty of this piece.
I've looked through your Floyd reactions, and you have yet to do Welcome To The Machine!! If you're up for a dark, synthy track, with lyrics that again are on point, then look no further.
And if you guys are up for a long reaction, then you MUST do Echoes!
I still regularly listen to this album, 1st heard it aged 10 in 1984. Blew my mind ❤️
One of the staples on ,perhaps, the greatest rock n roll record ever made. Potheads rejoice everywhere !
As a teenager, I used to lay in the dark on my bed not moving a muscle and listen to this album. You feel like you're floating.
i need to do this asap.
That's the best way.
Dark Side Of The Moon was one of my all time favourite albums and my favourite Floyd album. Then I saw Roger Waters play The Wall front to back live and that's now my favourite Floyd album.
Smokey is correct. The song is about conflict at every level, from war, propaganda, down to ignoring a beggar.
The wealthy few (them) need to divide the majority (Us). We (Us) aren't enemies. We should love each other.
The *ONLY* enemy (them) are those few who want to keep all of *Us* divided.
Best Wishes, All. ☮
Even still, those few are still a part of us.
Such a beautiful song. This whole album was a masterpiece. Enjoyed your reaction to a timeless classic. Thumbs up!! You definitely do get lost in the serenity of the song
Songs can be a lot like a story or a movie, like you said. Good ones can get you interested, great ones make you ask questions but the best ones make you question everything. Hats off to Floyd for being the best.
When I was growing up we had Laser Floyd! The planetarium would have nights for the teenagers or whoever and play this album to a laser show it was phenomenal. Pink Floyd is one of my mom’s favorite bands, we were on a road trip and got caught in a wicked lightning storm in Utah one time, she pulled out her Wish You Were Here CD and we just cruised on through with the laser show from nature, great memories. Has anyone told you guys about KoRn doing Another Brick In The Wall…Definitely worth checking out especially Live 🤘🏼💕✨
Was this at the Griffith auditorium?
@@imteebird it was the Gates planetarium at the Denver Museum ✨✌
@@imteebirdYes!!! We went to Griffith park and watched/listened and tripped over there!!! Early 90’s…fun times!!! They also did a Led Zeppelin show.
@@rallypoint1 when we went pink Floyd was sold out so we seen the Aerosmith show, it was good but I'm sure nothing compared to Floyd. I think it was 93.
Either it was sold out or they did different shows on different nights.
I remember so many nights in college, stoned out of my mind, listening to Pink Floyd, talking about all the mysteries of life and the universe with my friends…40+ years ago. And the music still holds up.
20, 50, 100 years from now people will still be listening to and marveling at this stunning piece of art
Thank you for reviewing Pink Floyd.
Everything pink floyd does is just dope.. definitely experienced..
Yes Tommy Lee Jones played Two-Face..in Batman Forever
"Us" are the people that wish to get on with our lives, in peace and friendship. "Them" are those who do everything they can to stop us achieving that.
Try Fearless from the Meddle album, its as laid back as they come.
"With...Without...and who'll deny, it's what the fighting's all about". That line sums up all wars since the dawn of time.
This album is a masterpiece that MUST be listened to from start to finish in on sitting. Life changing.
Pink Floyd - On the turning away (Live remastered) , best solo ever
Morning fellas! I love watching y'all get so into the music! (Hollywoods excitement he shows for certain songs is awesome to watch! Makes me happy!) Music is the shit, the way it touches each person differently!🙂 And pink Floyd i think, touches people in their souls in different ways! This is such a good freakin song!!! Next try "Learning to fly".. great song❤️🤓❤️
this is why we watch your channel. i always say to everyone that i come in contact with “ put yourself in other people’s shoes”. the whole world needs to do that more. great video.
Pink Floyd is and will always be my most favorite band.
Animals is probably their most underrated album. It’s so good though.
Yes! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
A top 10 song from the greatest band ever 👍
I love this album! Heard it for the first time in 1973 and I was only 11 years. I was in awe. There was nothing like this and there never will. David’s guitar takes you to heaven! Now that I’m 61 I even love Pink Floyd more!
One of my favorite songs ever! Please do the whole album in 1 sitting.
Back in the '70s us boys would sit around and drink mushroom tea or smoke some opium and relax to some Floyd. Great memories!! (what I can remember of them)
Ive been listening to Pink Floyd for decades, and love it now as much as back then, the music really is timeless. thanks so much for this video 👍
One does not simply "Listen" to Pink Floyd.... you "Experience" them. It's been said that David Gilmour doesn't use an amplifier.... he plugs his guitar straight into your soul!!
17:24 This is the sentence that creates ego, the false self.
I really loved both of your reactions to this. The song itself is hypnotizing add to that you guy’s vibing to it almost put me in a trance.😂
I could listen to you two talking about music all day it’s always interesting.❤
been a floyd fan for over 40 years & best live concert i ever saw
If one is open to it,, Pink Floyd has the unique ability to carry your mind off through the universe.
50 years ago this summer, when someone gave me some windowpane, a set of headphones, and this album from start to finish. What a wonderful trip!
Love the sax on this. But Hollywood have you ever heard the sax on “Two Suns in the Sunset” from The Final Cut? If you haven’t….well check out that whole album. It’s more of a Waters album but it’s much of the stuff that was cut from The Wall.
A lot of the war themes come up in Floyd’s music because Water’s father was killed in action during WWII. Again, check out The Final Cut. 🙂
Several years ago my dad saw pink floyd live and concert. He said the concert was epic they had front row seats. He said the laser light show was like nothing they had ever seen before.😊
Saw them in '94 on The Division Bell tour and your dad is 💯! That was an event more than a concert!
Yep, saw them in 1994 too, with VIP seats. Best concert I’ve ever been to. 🎯
Had to take a 4hr flight to see these guys in Toronto in 1994 The division Bell tour IT Was Worth it
The end of this on the album transitions perfectly right into Any Colour You Like. It’s such a smooth transition that if you’re listening to it, it sounds like an outro to Us and Them.
this is what should be taught in school and the world will heal
Such an iconic band. Never see them or Roger Waters but I have seen Australian pink floyd and that was an amazing show.
Oh that's Kool. That's going to be in my town here soon
@@kristaspecht you won't be disappointed if you go and I HIGHLY recommend you see them.
If you're feeling brave, do a reaction to the full album
Yes!!
This is my mother's favorite album, and definetly a top 10 for me. A few years ago she gifted her original Dark Side of The Moon record to my own son for his collection. I can't even be jealous that she didnt give it to me lol. This whole album is just so special.
Cool mom.
PF and Tool are the only too bands that always make me feel like I'm floating!
Animals is Pink Floyd's best and most underrated album.
I get chills, and its not the temperature of my adult beverage.
Hollywood is exactly right, this album is meant to be heard in full, start to finish. People talk about going into a ‘floyd hole’ a trance like state. I dont do any drugs, but this album makes me feel like Im high on something, every time
Leave it to Pink Floyd to address war & conflict in their most beautiful song. Thanks for your reaction.
You guys genuinely love music. Smoke went off to his own world
Best song on the best album for me although most times i listen to the whole album in one hit as its so awkward to break up.
is such a tease to just hear 1 or 2 tunes off Dark Side..when y'all can just sit and listen to the entire record, I am 69, been listening since it was new, still amazes me...Great react! ...Yea, I am late, Ijust came across you uys...keep on man!
these guys were the masters of their craft.absolutely brilliant for their fairly young age at the time in 73.wise beyond their years.
So there is a misconception with the two as many seem to get them confused or assume they're the same thing, but this song is much closer to Jazz than Blues.
Jazz for the most part is a cleaner amalgamation of complex chords with a chilled atmosphere, though can also be much more energetic with blaring horns and drums, but is often remembered for it's softer cool approach, such as on this song.
Blues however is very different from Jazz, in that it's very simple when it comes to chords, often utilising a 1-4-5 progression, using add-7 modifiers, and melodies built on Pentatonic scales. That might not mean much to you if you don't know much about theory, but it does show when breaking down on that level. Generally, it's a very simple genre that uses elements of Soul and Folk in the vocals. Blues doesn't usually have saxophone or brass, but more often has guitars and keys.
It should be noted that Jazz does use the Blues in its structure, but it's transformed and built-on with strictness and precision, whereas Blues is very laid back and minimalist.
Pink Floyd dabbled in both, mostly Blues, but this song is an example of their more Jazz flavoured styles. You can tell by the chord progression in the piano and the drum arrangements. That third chord in the main piano line is very Jazzy in its use of dissonance.
Smokey is bang on.
Dark side of the Moon became a sort of an anthem album of the 1970s. Now it’s timeless.
EVERYONE at least once in life should,, get comfortable,, put on your headphones & turn to max volume,, turn off the lights & listen to the whole album..TRUST ME!!
🙌🏼🎯👋🏼
I still can't listen to any song off Dark Side of the Moon without wanting to listen to the whole album. One of the best albums of all time, IMO
'94 was a great year for concerts! I saw Pink Floyd "Division Bell" (Pulse), the Grateful Dead w/Sting, Clapton and the Rolling Stones w/ Counting Crows warming up.. The Grateful Dead was a trip...cough...lol
I saw them in concert at Madison Square Garden NY I guess early 80s it was great.The lighting was incredible.
There isn't a single bad song on that album. It's best listened to in it's entirety while stretched out in a dark room with good headphones. The use of a little bit of the special green herb, while not completely necessary, does enhance the experience.
I concur
This song was written by David Gilmour and Richard Wright. Weight could play any keyboard, had a beautiful voice and did amazing arrangements. Sadly, he died a few years ago.
Probably my favorite Floyd song (Top 3 at least). I've seen a tribute band called Brit Floyd three times, they played this song two of those times, and it made me cry.
The name Pink Floyd comes from the given names of two prominent blues musicians, who Barrett loved: Pink Anderson and Floyd Council.
I never paid attention to how beautiful his voice was, their music takes me back to a time period I was never at but I walk away as if I was, does that make sense?
Such a great take in this song, its about how we are all the same as humans but are divided against each other by the powerful, the media, those that have the most already and benefit from pitting people against each other to maintain their status.
Yes the Colorado does flow into the body of water that's between Mexico and the Baja!! That location is the Gulf of California so you got a 100% on your geography exam!!! WOO HOO!!!!!
🤣👍🏽
“Experiences”. With you. I have experiences with Pink Floyd all the time. And without outside influences. Pink Floyd is just so deep that I don’t need any help getting there.
Words of wisdom from Smokey.
Pink Floyd has an album called THW WALL...They also put out a MOVIE called the wall which is excellent.. I recommend both
Speaking of Fleetwood Mac and blues. You guys are already due to react to the original Fleetwood Mac with Peter Green. You guys should listen to any live version of "Black Magic Woman", which is originally by them not Sanatana.
This was my very first concert, thanks to my big brother
Excellent reaction... Talk.
I remember getting dosed with LSD without my knowledge in high school. I ended up on someones couch with headphones listening to this album on an 8 track just looping for several hours. Wildest trip I ever had.
Opposites and the same....... Us and them
Many composers had a fifth symphony, in fact Haydn composed over 100.
There's many an old joke about people being asked who composed Beethoven's fifth symphony and they answer with any one but the clue in the question.
you never listen to Pink Floyd , you experience them…. 🤘🏼
This album has charted a combined 950+ weeks, and an average week (to this day) has between 8000 and 9000 sales. How's that for staying power - over 50 years and still outselling a lot of new releases. To my mind, the 'perfect' album, front to back. As always, Pink Floyd don't simply plug into their equipment, they plug directly into your soul - one doesn't simply listen to them - you have an emotional experience as well. Just let the sound fill and flow through you.
I can get high just listening to Floyd.
I was 13 when this came out, it happened to coincide with my first hit of acid, I loved it of course and became a regular thing, it's hard to put in words tripping to floyds music.
Obscured by Clouds and The Final Cut por favor.
Please, more react on a Pink Floyd song ^^
Still waiting for early Genesis. Like Firth Of Fifth or Musical Box, you will be blown away
Listening to one song from dark side of the Moon is like reading, one line from a poem or one chapter of a great novel. it is a masterpiece it is a statement it is a classical work of art. The whole album has a point each song has a meaning that they need every one of them to make that point please Smokey do what you do so well before you drop the needle on the record and listen to the whole damn album and you’ll see why it is called the greatest piece of music of the 20th century
Nothing like going old school at a Pink Floyd concert just pop a little cid sit back and enjoy.
Smokey’s got it just about right…..war, yes…but dichotomies of all sorts; between people, ideas, situations, etc.
The meaning of the song is about division of the masses, keeping us divided ("with..without", notice there was no echo after "without"?).
The rich against the poor.
United we stand, divided we fall.
It's the perfect revolution song.
Pretty damn good song too.
Roger Waters is a Rock God and revolutionary.
Don't let them drag ya down.
I mention this every now and then on PF reactions. During the Apollo 11 moon mission, the BBC had PF playing freeform instrumentals live (in studio) to the NASA animation. They played for hours. I was living in London (for college) at the time. It was a magnificent experience.
The entire Dark Side of the Moon album needs to be listened to it's entirety to appreciate it
And arguably the most recognisable album sleeve ever.
Hollywood-"Experiences"..hmmmm. lol🍄??😂
Just recently bought the DSOTM vinyl. And damn is this song amazing
An all time classic guys. If you've ever seen any footage of Roger Waters last couple of world tours this song will break your heart with visuals that encapsulate the grief, pain, devastation, hostility, insanity of war and overall, the general imbalance, struggle and unfairness between the lower to upper class in society . Not that the lyrics aren't clear in their initial intent, but it's worth watching to feel those hard emotions truly hitting home.
*edit* I believe that "Out of the way it's a busy day, I've got things on my mind
For want of the price of tea and a slice, The old man died" relates to an employed, possibly slightly more wealthy man walking along a street here in the UK who chooses to ignore a homeless person asking for some small change for a cup of tea or some food. A problem that hasn't changed in the UK or many other places in 50 years. The rich still get richer and the poor still struggle , nothing ever changes. Floyd spoke of this so long ago.
Qritten by Waters. They describe the senseless nature of war and the ignorance of modern-day humans who have been taken over by consumerism and materialism. In an interview, Waters shared the significance of each verse:
Love this song! thanks!
Greatest record of all time. Change my mind.
