You too ?! The Dark side of the Moon was the very first record album I ever bought Back in 73. In the Army in 73 I lived in the barracks ( 2 man room) and had a mess hall to live with and used all my pay for High end stereo gear and Pink Floyd holds the record for the most Masters Editions in my album collection with many bought multiple times. Second place was SuperTramp. I lost it all in the Loma Preita earthquake of 89.

Is this song about death or dying?…. No. I met David Gilmour back stage at a concert in California 1984. I asked him about the meaning - reason for “Great Gig In The Sky”…. David’s answer was something like…. .I was asked if Pink Floyd would ever do a song about Religion like some others have… so I said, You are referring to the great gig in the sky they call “God“. What words could be used to describe all the pain and suffering caused by religious beliefs. All the crying and wailing from mothers who lost their husbands or sons in a war fought over religious differences. The only vocals should be just the sound of a mothers crying with pain and suffering. That’s the true intentions of the song. We didn’t want to make that public so as to avoid any religious boycott like what happened to the Beatles after Lennon made his comment about Jesus. We could not tell the singer so as to avoid her making any comments that would end up in the media. The speaking heard at the beginning was recorded at Apple records prior to the recording of the song. Roger Waters placed a recorder at the door asking anyone who walked by to answer some questions into the microphone. The janitor stopped and recorded his answer to the question….”Are You Afraid Of Dying”?. It was decided to add the recording to the start of “Great Gig In The Sky”. It leads people to believe the song is about dying, but that is actually not the case. The Great Gig In The Sky…is GOD … The incredible vocals from Clare Torry happened when she did not know what they wanted. David Gilmour told her to pretend her voice is a Saxophone like on other songs on the album, no words, just tones. Results are legendary.

@@AliasMark69 Rick Wright wrote the song. And he has said it was about death. But yeah, it was supposed to be the "mortality/religious" section. But whatever morality play they were at first going for, perhaps as you described hearing it from Gilmore, was overtaken by Claire's vocals, and it became the song she created along with Wright's playing. Especially with the "Why should be afraid of dying.." to start it. The song just evolved into one of the most elegant songs ever written and performed about the experience of death and dying, no matter what the original intent.

Think of the Human body as clothes souls wear to live in this physical realm. We shed our human body to return to the spirit realm. There the veil is lifted and thought becomes the dominant manifestation. This is why those here are known and heard to the spirit realm. However few within this physical realm know of the spirit realm. Waking dreams, meditation, NDE, and even drugs that alter brain function, like Ayawaska can connect one to that realm.

This song holds a special place in my heart. I bought the cassette of Dark Side when it first came out. One Sunday on an extremely rare occasions on our way to Grandma's house I asked my dad permission to play my boom box and play The Great Gig In The Sky. My parents listened silently as I cranked it up. My mom kept staring at my dad. After it was over it seemed like there was a pause for eternity. Then all of a sudden my uncool dad said to ten year old me. Son that was one of the greatest songs I ever heard. Play that whole album as much as you like. All of a sudden mom and dad were cool. Later on I found out that my mom and dad brought the dance the Grind from New York City to the Whiskey a Go Go.

The vocalist here, Clare Torry, was a jazz singer whom the sound engineer recommended to the band. They played the piano track for her and then told her to go into the booth and just sing what she felt. Because of her jazz background, her first take was a lot of "ooh ooh baby" type stuff. The lyricist, Roger Waters, then told her it was a song about dying and to "Go in and have a sing at that." What you're hearing now is her second and final take. After she finished she asked the band if they liked it!!! They obviously said yes, paid her the going rate of 30 quid, and she left, not even sure if her work would end up on the album! Years later she "negotiated" a much higher and equitable fee for her contribution to this classic.

I recently finished reading Nicolas Schaffner's book on Pink Floyd (he lived with them for many years), where he says that Clare Torry was recommended by Alan Parsons, the main sound engineer for this album - an employee of Abbey Road studio, where Pink Floyd recorded some of their albums (he later formed the "Alan Parsons Project"). Clare Torry was a singer who was hired by this studio primarily as a backing vocalist. At first she was confused because the song had no words, so she first sang oh yeh, oh baby... Until David Gilmour told her he wanted her to try using her voice as another instrument. She sang it twice more and then refused and walked away with a fee of £30. She was convinced Pink Floyd wouldn't use the song and it wouldn't be on the album. However, she was surprised that they did include it in the end. Years later she was paid a co-writing fee and still receives the royalties today. Here is a short interview with Clare Torry on the subject: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/o6-HatuLuNK-n4E.html By the way, this whole album is a real emotional experience and you MUST listen to the whole thing - if only for yourself. When you do, I think you'll be a little happier - trust me...

Pink Floyd is truly “Album Rock”, and this album and nearly all of their albums should be listened to through from beginning to end. This is a very emotional song, without lyrics, taking us though the transfer to “the other side”, the process of dying. Fighting against it, perhaps through pain, acceptance and succumbing at the end of our lives. The album takes us through life. It is a classic that will live on forever. You should analyze Time from this album next.

I've always felt that this song is the pressure release valve to all the tension that's been built up in the first half of the album. Clare pours her heart out, and we slump exhausted on the sofa till we get get up ad cross the room to turn over the LP for side 2 (obviously that's not quite the same with digital media!)

Hard to pick "one" song, but when I'm asked which is my favorite song from PF, I tend to answer "Time"... I love everything about it, the genius introduction, where Nick is doing great stuff on percussions, Waters lyrics are crushing, and David's guitar solo is one of the bests, if not THE best. Of course Rick does his job well, as usual, and lead to the following tracks and The Great Gig...

Hi Rosalie, I truly enjoy watching your analysis of music, especially a classic track like this one. You brought some new ideas to my attention about the song which is what art is all about, shifting our observation or perspective in the "mirror" of how we see and interact in the world. Dark Side of the Moon is a landmark record and in the time it came out was a paradigm shift in many ways. It's one thing to look at music decades or even centuries later and make assertions and assumptions and it's another to have experienced it in the time it debuted- in this a case as a pre-teen exploring the music my older siblings were listening too. I may not have understood the philosophical/existential meaning of death but I sure did connect to the feeling and the sound of the music. It is still as beautiful as it ever was :) Thank you ~JP

You mentioned 'time' a great many times in your commentary, and rightly so, because Time is track 3. Almost as though it had to be. The word that pops into my head is "Symmetry" . In the narrative and theme particularly. Like they began sketching all those connections out long before recording anything. Constructing music in that way is something I almost exclusively see from the classical/orchestral world. An exception being Tool. I forever have Tool and Floyd linked in my head, despite their differences, because both bands are all about searching the far reaches of the wasteland for something different.

Clare Torry did this on the fly in 2 1/2 takes on a Sunday afternoon.. She was paid 30 pounds Time & 1/2 for musicians). She was told the concept of the album & kinda what they wanted. Started to sing. They said no lyrics. She collected herself & told them to hit record. The 1/2 take was part of the third take. She stopped 1/2 way through & said they got what they needed. Next thing a friend told her the album was selling allot in America. She bought it & noticed her name was on the album. Allot of what you are talking about is in the song "Time" . That is 2 tracks before this song on the album.

psychology and Pink Floyd - perfect marriage. You were right not to fully expect this - it is a special and unique piece, it is not indicative of most of their songs - though all of them have dynamic and unique facets. This song is the embodiment of the 4 stages of death. The start is seeing a love one die with the harsh wailing, to the serene acceptance that is eventually softens.

If you haven't listened to the whole album you, I envy you. So much, as you will hear it for the first time. As said, I envy you. Headphones on.. lights off. Awaaay.. you go.

With 2112 Dark Side Of The Moon is probably the best concept album ever. The album is just as relevant today as it was back in 73. After my girlfriend passed away I was giving a book called Grieving Mindfully by Sameet Kumar. He is a Psychologist and Buddhist who teaches that dealing with death and grief is like a spiral stair case. You will have times where you go up and times where you will go down so he teaches people how to walk a meaningful path so that hopefully one can learn loss is an inevitable part of life. Great book for anyone who is dealing with the loss of a loved one.

I've been paying attention to rock music since about 1964 (when I was 7 years old).Started, of course, with The Beatles. When I was in junior and senior high schools, I had a musician classmate friend who had a stereo outfit in his folks' basement. We listened to everything rock, but had a particular fondness for Led Zeppilin, Jethro Tull, Yes, Pink Floyd, Chicago, Steve Miller, Procol Harum, and several others. After decades of cogitation on the subject, and having changed my mind only once or twice before, a few years ago I decided that "Dark Side of the Moon" is the greatest rock album ever. For "death and dying," give Richard Strauss' "Tod und Verklärung" (Death and Transfiguration) a listen. It's a tone poem, meant to tell a story in music (ohne Worte).

Oh my!!! I've loved this song probably over a thousand times in my life! And it still gets me emotional! I also would like to hear MELODY CRISTEA sing this! And with this much emotion!

As has already been said, it would be hard to have a channel talking about music and psychology without diving into Pink Floyd's discography. The Wall is a masterpiece of psychology wrapped up into a album of excellent music.

As powerful as this is on its own, it's even more powerful in the context of the whole album, which was written to be listened to all in one sitting. Fun fact: she showed up as a session musician for this gig and they told her what they were looking for. Her first take she used some words and they asked her to do it without lyrics. This was the second take. God damn. The music, the chord progressions, the instrumentation and arrangement is fantastic but all overshadowed by Torry's legendary performance. This album remained on the Billboard 200 chart for over 14 years straight and still sells thousands of copies a week. It's an absolute classic and often cited as the best album ever made.

I always imagined this song encompassed an entire life in three parts - We are born and we come out screaming and full of vitality, in the middle we begin to settle down, then the third part where we are wise but energy and life are fading away. The album was so awesome. Death is inevitable and at some point desirable but it does not have to come at 80 years or sooner - why not 180 or 1080? Aging is largely caused by loss of data in our DNA. It doesn't have to be.

50 years since I bought the Dark Side Of The Moon vinyl album, this song still gives me goosebumps. Pink Floyd is not just music; it is an experience. Dark Side of the Moon was called "...the first concept album..." by a couple of London DJs on their (two hours every Friday night) 'Your Mother Wouldn't Like It' show that featured a different Rock group each week, except they did four Friday shows on Pink Floyd. I recorded all four Fridays on BASF 90 min cassette tapes.

I’m an American psychotherapist living in Germany, and I really enjoyed your reaction to my favorite band. I have always equated this song as the realization of one’s own mortality. The song takes the listener through the Kubler-Ross stages of grief quite beautifully.

The opening lines remind me of this quote from "Julius Caesar" by William Shakespeare: “Cowards die many times before their deaths; The valiant never taste of death but once. Of all the wonders that I yet have heard, It seems to me most strange that men should fear; Seeing that death, a necessary end, Will come when it will come.”
