Gilmour is a monster on this song!

Wow! Sori looks really happy 😊 Pink Floyd is good for your soul 😎❤️

Shine on You Crazy Diamond!

"I wish I had spent more time at work" said no one ever, on their death bed.

One of the best base lines in history

The moment you realize you've heard a song too many times.... when you can repeat the random banter at the end lol

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.)"

This is the first time i have actually listened to your hour talk after a video and agreed with everything you have said :)

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.

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).

I'm hoping that you will react to Pink Floyd's "Wish You Were Here" album after you complete your DSOTM lyric breakdowns.

lol, only an American would consider Britain socialist. great review though.

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!

Definitely my favorite 7/8 groove.

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

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.

I am so glad I found your channel, Thank you very much guys, you are a wonderfull deep breath of fresh air.

Wow. I really dig how the song led to your discussion of the restaurant experience in Boston. You two are cool!

Actually, the whole album is great. It is also the best selling record of all time.

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.

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 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.

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.

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.

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 .....

I agree wholeheartedly on your feelings on tips and people who work hard for their money. Great discussion!

One of the best Pink Floyd songs ever

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! 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

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 ♡

Loving these Pink Floyd reactions guys! Living Colour - Cult of Personality Insomnium - In the Groves of Death Kamelot - Memento Mori

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.

Do "Have a Cigar" by Floyd. That's my favorite. It's about the fakeness of record companies.

Longest running album ever on billboards top 200, from 1973 to 1988, over 900 weeks

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.

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.

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.

"Britain's socialist"... WTF!! The father of capitalism was a british... Adam Smith. LOL!

One of my favorite Pink Floyd songs. Blood Eagle Wings - Anthrax

All these pink Floyd reactions are really trending on all the reaction channels..lol

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.

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.

Can’t wait till you guys do The Wall and Wish You Were Here. It’s amazing how different these albums all sound!

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 )

(cant wait to see the other Dark Side of the Moon individual song reviews by you both.)

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.

One of my favorite Pink Floyd's songs!

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 :)

When the rich say they got rich because of hard work, ask "whose?"

Nice, a week of Pink Floyd. Allegaeon: Proponent for sentience III should be a logical follow up to see the evolution of sophisticated music.

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

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

Listen to pink floyds echoes live at pompeii both parts.It's one of the most psychedelic progressive rock songs you will ever experience.

"I'm in a high fidelity first class travelling set..." is the best description of a rock and roll band ever.

I'm in love with Sori

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

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.

Re the pooled tips..... Most top restaurants and Fine Dinning Rooms use the pooled system based on a points system. Head waiter / Maître D get 3 points. Captain and hostess get 2 points. Waiters and buss boys get 1 point etc. Divide the pot by the accumulated points and each point has a value. Honest waiters love this system because they make more. The house love it because the staff help each other , but their own job and clients come first. Only the cheats and thieves hate this system......especially when they are sacked for theft.

Hear how that sax sounds like mister big showing up. 🤘👽🤘

*"Into* _the_ *_abyss"_* ...you okay Vin? hahaha

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

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!

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.

You're a beautiful human Sori.

Nick Mason on drums WOW.

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

Take the dive PF “Animals” start with “Dogs”... love to see lyrical breakdown and reaction emotion packed Guitar:)

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.

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.

Ouch! That breakdown hurts. Oh, the irony....

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"

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

Ironically not long after this came out, the good old Government came along and took a giant slice of their pie.

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 😡

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.

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.

Reaction Pink Floyd - high hopes Please

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

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.

¡Lo más grande!

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.

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)

BOY, did this album need this song in the middle.

Dredg - Bug Eyes

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 !

Great analysis of this tune...😁😁😁

You should do the same treatment for QUEEN some time my dudes. And Sori

I've seen dozens of videos of you guys, and was dumbfounded just now when I realized I'm not subbed. Woops. Fixed that.

Should review each song on Wish You Were Here, Animals, and the Wall! :)

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.

Please react to Angra - the temple of hate Old band from the new lead guitarist of Megadeth Brazilian power metal

Its sarcasm- they are mocking money grubbing. Just listen to their album Animals and you'll see the consistency

" HIGH HOPES" OFF PINK FLOYD THE DIVISION BELL.

Sense you Guys is on The Pink Floyd Vibe i Strongly Recommend the Song "Mother"

Not many have tried to copy Dave's solo from this Masterpiece.

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

Pink Floyd convinces me that most music needs sax solos haha. Also, socialism is very specific in that government controls the means of production and distribution. Having social programs isn't in and itself socialist. Human societies have had social programs for literally thousands of years.

Megadeth - Good Mourning/Black Friday Megadeth - Looking Down The Cross

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.

Not the best song on the album, in my opinion, but it does contain some great “Pink Floyd” moments. The change from 7/8 to 4/4, the guitar solo coming back in, the bass line, the effects loop. Brilliant.
