thats why we watch reaction videos, to experience others go thru what we did, and get a glimpse of hearing it for the first tiime again

Honestly, I don't even watch reaction videos much, maybe here and there, but I can't get enough of people reacting to Time.

Buy you cant because of TIME

I remember exactly where I was.....who I was with....the first time I heard this. What a lasting impression.❤️

Absolutely! I sort of feel the same way about three or four chapters of 'The Lord of the Rings'.

All of the members had huge influence in the whole album, especially David Gilmore who is pink floyd

alieneater9000 Don't get me wrong, I love David Gilmour, but the formula was there before he joined the band. He refined it to no end, sure, but I'd say the heart and soul of Pink Floyd was Roger Waters. I mean, WYWH and The Wall were stories that Gilmour never would have told. They're all great, though. Every one of them were masterful musicians. Gilmour is an amazing writer. Roger Waters, in my mind, is a lyrical ninja on par with someone like Ray Davies or Pete Townshend.

@@StacheBigote I agree totally. All you have to do is look at A Momentary Laps of Reason and The Division Bell to know Roger was the ideas man who brought all those songs to life. There wouldn't be much of a Pink Floyd without Roger Waters.

@@cygnusfloyd or you could say there would be no PF without Syd!

Los 30... la edad en que todos tomamos una nueva perspectiva de la vida ...

The funny thing is, as your time gets shorter, your memories get sculpted by that little artist in your head, and your life holds a meaning that you couldn't have imagined as a child... It's a shame that it has to go away someday. Write it down. Record it. Leave it here for the children to learn from. That is what this is all about.

@@timhallas4275 damnit dude. You're incredibly inciteful. I couldn't think of a better metaphor.

@@zaoisgood Thanks. I am a metaphor machine. or just confused. I don't know which.

I used to listen to this song in the car with my mum when I was around 4 or 5 years old, being 24 now the "10 years have got behind you" lyrics hits so hard. I realise I'm not that old yet but even so it feels like I was 14 not that long ago.

That's so true!

Ehhh, kinda. If thats how you interpreted it then by all means, music is subjective. But, the dark side of the moon is the entire journey of life, and per the band this specific song is the part in life you realize that “wow, time flew bye... uh oh”. The first song breathe is about life starting, then The song great gig in the sky is about the fear of death, and money is about the hayday of young 20-30’s making money, us & them is a country going to war and ur drafted into it, any color u like is about preparing for ur funeral (picking out ur coffin color), brain damage is getting old to senile and then eclipse- the cycle continues.

It’s a magic spell 😉

I love this interpretation. Very different from my own. Great stuff

I love your interpretation...you got it very well

Indeed, quite a few reactors have covered the whole album, and their subscription numbers have only gone up as a result.

Yeah the whole album, like most of Pink Floyds albums are really one long song broken into pieces.. Lots of deep metaphorical meaning.. Best listened to as a full album with some good headphones and eyes closed when your in a mood to chill and think about life and the world we live in.

TRUE. it is not a song by song album.

Mathiasfruh I just did 😌

I agree. The entire album as a single experience is the best way to go. Get yourself a beverage of choice, dim the lights, lean back and let them take you on a journey you'll never forget.

Amen

Amen

Amen

agreed, this solo pulls on our heart strings

I hope you still live your life to the fullest

Yeah right! I'm 37 and I still think how ridiculous it is hearing people in their 20s saying they feel 'old'. It's like listening to skinny blonds saying they feel 'fat'. They don't know what old is and neither do I, but I don't pretend to.

Spoiler!

@@johnnyparsnips7641 It certainly does. I am 74 now.

@@johnnyparsnips7641 59 here, oh what I'd give to be sweet 23 again! But then again, I enjoyed growing up with Pink Floyd and the great music of my time, so it all works out just fine.

That's how the song High Hopes gets me!

@Matthew Allen This song (and Great Gig in the Sky that followed) almost hurt me (in the ultimate way) when I was 21 and stupidly decided to put on "Dark Side of the Moon" when I got home after a night of partying, while on Sensimilla. Let's just say I'm glad I didn't own a gun at the time, as the combination of the two songs and Sensimilla hit me BIIIIG time, emotionally, and I'm normally a VERY pro-life/anti-suicide type of guy. Just one of those isolated incidents in my life, and I didn't listen to "Dark Side" again for a few years, as that night scared the shit outta me. I still love Floyd, but like I've always said about the band, "it's scary how good Pink Floyd can be."

At 13 time was flew by.. At 33 time was a commodity that you traded for "stuff". At 63 time slows down and it seems you have too much left and too little to show for what you spent. I think by 83, you will trade everything you have for a few more years.

Exactly

@@SkorLord Me too, @Jack Public.

I think you are forgetting "we don't need no education"

The Wall was way better

I'm 41,I got into Floyd 24 years ago.yup.

Yes at 41 this song just hits me like never before.

Gregorio Davila that swap hit me at 39

It's one of those few artworks that ages well and remains interesting through a lifetime. I've listened to it since Highschool and it still resonates, but from a different perspective. Very mature and impressive for a young rock band.

Yeah, people catch onto certain bands and songs at different times in their lives. There's no particular order of exposure. It's not like before where the decades and the music was given to more people at the same time period. The Internet has kind of blended every decade together from 2000 onward.

99% of these reaction videos are fake bro.. No way in hell a musican never heard bands this big..

@@koslim until 3 months ago i never heard of pink floyd, david bowie and never listened to those and the bealtes and more. i just didn't listen to those bands

@@meetu_ if you have never listen the name pink floyd before bro then something is really wrong with the place you live.. We are talking about the biggest band ever lived and you had no idea? You should be worried.. I am not a fan of Madonna but i know she is a singer.

@@koslim I just caught on to pop music and didnt want to listen to other types of music cause i thought it was unecessary. happens to a lot of people actually

Kourtney Kane Everhone reaches a moment where they start to listen to ‘great music’ I was only 19 when I did. I mean listen to what you like but there is no denying Pink Floyd, Led Zep, Stones, Beatles did something bands don’t do these days.

We follow each other on Twitter, what are the odds.:o

I do everytime since I was a kid, I love music, now I'm 17, i don't understand so much the lyrics because I'm argentinian, but I will translate it

Try Radiohead

Elliot Belliss i love all those bands a lottt. So with similar taste, I recommend Radiohead

Herman Singh Yes! I believe because one senses pure beauty.

Listen to little wing by Stevie Ray Vaughan. Thank me later

Fuck yeah...

True

It's bittersweet to me, I feel happiness and sadness at the same time.

My first concert was Pink Floyd Animals Tour in Anaheim, i have yet seen anything that comes close!They are a genre all by themselves.

its so timeless and ethereal

If you want to hear something really deep check Raphaella Smits playing Chaconne.

as far as deep bands go, I feel compelled to mention La Dispute

@mjwholesales Are you trging to say Pink Floyd are flat earthers?

BEST BAND EVER....

Rock on, Sylvia! 😀

Rock on Sylvia and God bless.

Wow. I’m 14 and I love sharing the same passion as other people from varying ages

The sun is the same in a relative way but you're older is my favourite one line lyric of all time.

The whole album is timeless it could have been made yesterday, I'm 74 and heard it when it first came out in 73 and I still listen to it more than any other album

The beginning represents the womb and when the alarm bells ring it represents birth and the time before the lyrics start represents birth, childhood and then becoming a young adult. Then it's "ticking away the moments that make up a dull day."

Spinning Back Kick Then the transition to the rat race: “running to catch up with the sun, only to have it come up behind you again”. Then retirement: “Good to warm my bones beside the fire”. Then the tolling bell of the funeral service at the church to hear the “softly spoken magic spell”.

John McCullough and then the great gig in the sky...

I also like to sit beside the fire and warm my bones.....welcome to planet Floyd.

Cockney Red Home again. I like to be when I can.

Love watching these videos of people being introduced the the Floyd .. i feel the same as you !!!

Agreed

I wish I could hear it for the first time again.

Exactly what I was thinking. Funny how empathy works this way.

That was my exact emotion. Like listening to it the first time

Every.Single. Time. From a 55yr old. It's just perfect.

Same age and totally same feeling about it.

35, and totally.

Well said

No one gets more emotion out of their guitar than David Gilmour. Sooooo much passion!

The best comment ever!

@@ivans1308 Found the Redditor

Very true

@Lucky Luke Why? Nothing can out do the original.

Hahaha you made it worth reading everyone comments, but you are so right on. Thanks for the laugh👍😁

You can fail a drug test listening to almost every Floyd song.

You won't care though ;)

actually, most psychedelics don't appear on drug tests ;)

Ha! Totally dude!!

I’m 17 and I didn’t take it in for a while, it washed over me because I always listen to music while doing other things so it’s always a background thing. But when it hits, it HITS. With the surround sound car speakers is perfect

I am 66. I heard this when it first came out and remember exactly what I was doing. It turns out that I knew exactly when and what I was doing the first time I heard five different Pink Floyd albums. I don't have that experience with any other band.

@@RBCharger You have better memory than me and I'm still in my 50s :-)

@@tobortine I don't know if my memory is better. It is just that Pink Floyd moves me. My older sister got the album Ummagumma on Christmas 1969. My parents had no idea what it was. Actually, none of us did. My mom just wanted to get my sister something from the contemporary music scene and Pink Floyd was new. I'm sure she would have picked something from the Beatles if she could find it. And maybe my mom was influenced by the song titled Careful with That Axe, Eugene because my brother is named Eugene. Or more likely the album cover with all those instruments laid out had an effect. Even though it was Christmas, Ummagumma wasn't background music. We listened to it like we were watching a TV show. Eventually, I recorded the album onto a reel to reel tape so I could have my own copy. As for my memory, I have no idea what I got that Christmas. I have equally detailed memories of first time hearing Dark Side of the Moon, Meddle, Wish You Were Here, and The Wall. Now that I reflect on it, when you hear an album that is not pop music it is usually because one of your friends owns the album and wants to share the experience with you. That is enough to devote some focus to the music and enjoy the moment in good company.

Oh, to hear that heartbeat with fresh ears....

Need to check if it’s still in the album charts. I know it was there for donkey’s years.

19BB60 Correct, The Dark side of the Moon was on Billboard 200 for....hold on...741 weeks!!! It is for more than 14 years, dude!

Fleetwood Mac Rumours

@@michaeltaylor8835 Rumours is good but this is straight lightning in a bottle.

I still remember the shivers and goose bumps it gave me.

i was twelve when i first heard it, 46 years ago- mind still blown xD

Everyone should listen to Dark Side of the Moon.

while watching the OG Alice in wonderland.

I'd say from birth on, so kids get it in their heads what MUSIC is suppose to sound like. I did that for mine and now grown adults, still listening with their kids now. Beautiful sight to see.👍🎸🎸🎤😎

That was the age i started listening to them 42 years ago. They stayed my alltime favorit band since. Pink Floyd does not play music.... They create art.

First heard this at 12 years old. It made me realize how quickly childhood had went by...at years did seem shorter. I am 57 now, and this song does bring up same emotions now as it did then.

I used to think about how if I went back to 3rd grade I'd do things differently and my problems would be solved. I was in 4th grade.

😂👍🏻😂👍🏻

🎵And then 10 weeks have got behind you. No one told you when to walk. You can barely talk. 🎶

I'm an island boy that was in high school in the 70's. I had friends that went to School In England and Ireland. I looked forward to the summer vacations when they'd come home and bring albums from Zepplin, The Who, and Jethro Tull, but this album blew me away and remains my favorite to this day. I finally got to visit England for the first time when movie for 'The Wall' was released. Mind blown again.

I'm 17 now and just discovered lots of Pink Floyd's masterpieces. Glad I did sooner than later considering I graduate from high school and start my life in 2020. Great way to end the old decade, listen to Pink Floyd.

I'm 63. Pink Floyd were my hero's. Remember listening to a pre release of Meddle on a late night show. Echoes amazing. then DSOM. But we also had Yes and ELP in those days. What a privilege to grow up with it all.

I love this song. The whole thing is moving and speaks truth and timeless relevance

This moment when you realize that this fucking song called time never gets old! 😱

i choose comfortably numb

I work in a funeral home, and I'm the designated sound guy because I'm younger than everyone else there. This would be such a wonderful change from "Go Rest High on that Mountain" and I'd probably even bring in my own copy of DSotM to play it off of.

yeh pretty much the best solo of all time

Everyone has their favorite Gilmour solos. Time has always been my favorite. It is musical perfection. I could not imagine Bach, or Beethoven, or Mozart hearing it and not being blown away like the rest of us.

Shine on for me

And he never listened to pink floyd ever again....Sorry james.

James Faulkner I’m 64 and I’ve been listening to Pink Floyd since I was 16 or 17 years old I agree with your statement

"thought I'd have accomplished more" the final thoughts of every great person that ever lived

I'm 48 years old listening to this video in July 2020. I've enjoyed watching this reaction to a masterful song by on of my beloved favourite bands. Dark Side of the Moon is a work of art.

That cheered me. But thats ok....

Close second to Zeppelin. Brothers of the craft.

It’s actually a tie for me.

Gavin Jones when I was a child I always thought of pink Floyd as an entity rather than a group of people and I was kind of frightened of the thought of that

1) The Beatles 2) Led Zeppelin 3) Pink Floyd 🇬🇧

For me it would be 1) Queen 2) The Beatles 3) Pink Floyd / Led Zeppelin

Well said.

Tbh I find the same. I’ve been listening all my life tbh but every time im listening I hear more and more in the music. PF truly are a piece of art we can never replicate

I bought DSOTM when I was 15 only because I read a good criticism . At this period I listend mainly to Cure, U2, Clash etc. and I didn't really knew about much about Pink Floyd. I remember that I thought: "Hm, this album is ok.. and maybe I will like it more in the future." This was a good sign because not any of my favourite bands or albums get me immadetly. Probaly a half year or a year later I listen to it again, and someday It began to catch me... I can't count how many times I listend to It.

Pink Floyd is one of the greatest bands of all time. Poetic, inspirational, insightful, relatable, simply genius.

WickedGrimm Guess I’m doing something wrong

@@andrewdiller385 try it upside down sir

@Blue collar Gold pockets I've been meaning to really sit down and listen to Pet Sounds. Books I've read and a class I took regarded Pet Sounds as being the psychedelic precursor to both Sgt. Pepper's and Their Satanic Majesties Request. After hearing everything we've all heard now it might still not seem to be that psychedelic of an album, but it was still the beginning of doing things differently sonically. Apparently the Beach Boys were pretty influential for the Beatles and the Rolling Stones in furthering their own sounds. I'm not an expert on the matter, but this is generally how it has been explained to me, and from what I've read on my own seems to make sense.

This album is an emotional rollercoaster, but Meddle is probably one of the top albums in my opinion

Blue collar Gold pockets. Hahaha hilarious! This douche-bag talking about the Beach Boys

Yeah they're great but better than Dark Side Of The Moon. Nope

Dark side. Bar none. Things get close, not discredit anyone but. Nope. Nothing else matters. Lol.

Agreed. It's one of the best ever recorded for sure

The secret of the Time solo is that it is double-tracked. Meaning; there are two almost identical guitar tracks recorded and mixed together in the final product. Results in basically doubling the sound and helping to increase the impact of one of Gilmour's very best efforts.

Gilmour had a way of taking Waters' lyrics and finishing them with pure and simple notes. They were a truly astounding band.

That guitar solo does something to my soul bruh goosebumps every time

I agree. But up there with that is Billy Gibbons' two solos in ZZ Top's "I need you tonight". Check it out! Truly stunning stuff!

Agreed. This song is a masterpiece on its own, but it's a sad, otherworld epiphany in context of the album. Especially with the gospel singer reprise on some of the other track.

Dont listen to him! First do the album version, then you evolve into the live version!

@@arielcost92 fair point!

@@arielcost92 I agree, studio version first. There are many great live versions as Gilmour extends and changes his outro solo near every tour. The 1995 P.U.L.S.E. version is great, but it is no better than Gilmour's 2008 "Live In Gdansk" and 2016 "Live At Pompeii" versions.

I agree, problem is thry actually edited out about 2 minutes of Gilmour's solo.....how dare they? There is a full length version here on youtube though.

Pulse version is amazing. I have goose bumps every time I listen.

rob allen I’m 31 and I first listened to Pink Floyd when I was 21 😍

Be well and fine Rob - and yes you're right division bell is super especially high hopes👍

rob allen my dad was born in england but he moved to the states in his mid 20’s or so and he practically raised me to love pink floyd which i’m very glad he did. my 2 favorite bands/groups of rock are queen and pink floyd because of how unique they are.

I've been listening to Pink Floyd for going on 45 years now. Actually TDSOTM holds a record for contunious weeks on the top 100. I helped put it there used up at least 6 8-track tapes and vinyl records. A few years ago I found a 8-track tape at a yard sale. I even rolled a car with Pink Floyd playing in the background, when car is upside down it's hard to figure out how to shut stuff off.

rob allen : Peace. You're heard. I found Floyd in my teens too. How lucky were we, to come of age in this Epoch?

Yep. I'm 50 and that's what I was thinking!

Agreed. But to think they wrote this in their 20's is incredible!!

@nmeunier . And then one day you find, ten years have got behind you . . .

@nmeunier . Yeah me too. I'm pushing 53 myself. What a lovely thing to do for the old folk, you should definitely hit them with some Floyd though. My daughter-in-law works in a nursing home and I've no doubt it takes a special kind of person to do that job. Yes, I imagine thoughts of your own mortality are not far away. Let's hope there's someone like you and your wife, to spend time with us when we are even older.

@nmeunier Maybe u shouldn't work there man. I mean if it's getting to you

Best description of all of David Gilmours guitar solos!

Really? Wow that’s fascinating!

What's even more fascinating is that you replied to my 'fascinating' comment lol,.....Jewel!

Gods . living gods

Roger Waters wrote the timeless prophetic lyrics, Dave Gilmour composed the masterful guitar work (the ‘eargasm’), Richard Wright on the keyboards and Nick Mason keeping time on percussion. The album is an unquestionable timeless MASTERPIECE!

that's what gets me too Mr Gretzky - these guys came up with the tune, the lyrics, the arrangements - that is true creative genius.

Different album, but another emotional track is 'On the turning away' , especially the Live in Venice version.

Listening to this exact song fade into Great Gig in the Sky brings me to tears almost every time...even after listening to it thousands of times over the decades. If the guy in this video had kept listening and heard those beautiful womens' voices after hearing Time for the first time I guarantee he'd be balling like a baby.

@@bushpilot223 There's ONE singer on "Great Gig in the Sky," who was NOT one of the backup singers from "Time," and her name is ? Torrey (?), a jazz, studio, (mostly) vocalist, and a white, unassuming-looking English woman. What a magnificent, emotional, & mind blowing performance she gave, too. Sadly, she had to sue Pink Floyd/Roger Waters to be paid some royalties, years after the long-term, international smash the album had become, for HER original, overwhelmingly distinct & outstanding contribution to the tune. She FINALLY won a settlement over 30,+ or so, years AFTER the release of DSotM.

Yes this music is timeless. (no pun intended). I first loved this band (and many others) at age 12. I'm 54 now. It never gets old. It is still very fresh.

The line that kills me is "thought I'd something more to say". That last moment of life... no, wait, not yet! I think I fear that more than anything.

+Bella R Stay with this song. Play it now and then through your life. You'll see how it gets deeper and deeper, and your reaction becomes more intense as you come to understand how the years get shorter and shorter.
