    You think it fits now? Come back to it in ten years. Then ten years after that. This song will morph and change over time, deepening as the years tick on. I can't hear it any more without losing control at least a bit. You'll see.
    P.S. For a truly awesome mix experience, put on their track, "Echoes". Lights off, light a candle, and kick back for a trip to the deepest oceans. One of the Top Five auditory experiences. True masters of sound.

    This might be the most satisfying reaction to “Time” I’ve ever seen, and I’ve watched dozens. I applaud your intelligence and thoughtfulness. This is why I subscribe to your channel.
    I was in my senior year of high school, just 3 months from graduating and moving on to college, when this album came out. I bought it the day it was released in the US. This song didn’t mean as much to me then, because my life was really just beginning. Now almost 50 years later, it moves me to tears as I reflect on the memories and regrets I’ve accumulated. The end seems much closer now, and I give more thought to how I spend the time I have left. That Roger Waters recognized this truth and was able to articulate it so meaningfully in his late 20s is a testament to the brilliance and the seriousness of this band. There is no other like them.

      Very well put. My parents (who are about your age based on the math) put me onto Pink Floyd, among other greats from their generation. Sometimes it really feels like I was in high school or college just a couple years ago. But I wasn't. I'm 30. I'm working day in and day out, losing track of time, stressing about MONEY (😉) wondering when and how I'll ever break away from this rat race and live the fulfilling life I truly want to live. My natural life may still have decades left to go, but this song is becoming a lot more meaningful as the years go by. I'm discovering with age that I don't have as much time as I may perceive.

      @@mikemcgown6362 Thanks Mike 😅 haha. Unfortunately for me my life has only really just begun so let's hope that isn't true for me. I wasted my 20s with addiction issues and avoidance behaviors (undiagnosed with ADHD until 28). Gave myself a huge kick up the ass lately and now life is only starting to really click into place now.
      Yes I missed the starting gun but my current momentum in life is definitely in a positive/self-improving one now and things are definitely still moving towards my physical and mental peak in life. But it's not like I was a healthy man in my 20s. Everyone around me thinks I look younger now than I did 5 or even 10 years ago which can be hard to take in. It just goes to show that time can be an even more tricky thing to understand than we can comprehend. It can be taken from you behind your back without you ever knowing. It might even be given back to you in the future if you move yourself off of certain paths of unhealthy behaviors etc..
      'Your future' is exchanged, flows, and is changed all the time depending on the moves you make in the three dimensions you have some control over. Nothing is set in stone.
      The only thing that is certain about life is death. Nothing else. Everything that has a beginning has an end. Coming to accept this is half the battle of living a full life. I suppose Siddhartha Gautama Buddha must have been a very enlightened person to have come out with such things so long ago.
      It seems that we cannot really understand time fully as our consciousness is perceived in a way which we move involuntarily through one unseen dimension (time) as we move voluntarily through three other dimensions (space). Our consciousness functions in a way that enables us to feel in control of things because we do not perceive the forth dimension consciously or subconsciously. We only have awareness of knowingly moving and existing in three dimensions while the forth one is seemingly flowing constantly away without any chance of control or grasping at it.
      We can only observe time indirectly by seeing it's side effects on the first three dimensions. Your watch ticks because of the frequency that quartz vibrates at when an electric force flows through it. It is not a porthole into the next dimension. Time appears to flow away from us evenly but when we closely observe it we know that time bends and fluctuates depending on the amount of matter in that area of 'space' and nature of the matter. So just as the 2D world can have an impact on the 3D world, the consciousness within the next dimensions of reality (4D and onwards) might be able to perceive us in our 3D realm or we might even be able to push contact out with our dimensions. The clues to the true nature of reality and time travel must be in there somewhere 😉 haha. Trippy thinking for the day over with 😂.
      Sorry for the brain dump response haha

    Thank you for characterizing the guitar solo as "healing," as a balmy remedy after being ripped open by the lyrics. What a great insight. You may not know this, but Pink Floyd is an extremely divided band (along with its fan base) with Roger Waters (songwriter, bass player and co-singer), on one side, and the three other members on the other, including the incredible David Gilmour on lead guitar and vocals. Waters is very dark, caustic, and alienating, and the rest of the band members are optimistic and have refused to work with Waters because he does not appreciate their contributions. The other three went on as Pink Floyd and did well without Waters. Some people do not like PF because the subject matter is always dark (Waters), but stay because the guitar solos (Gilmour) are famous for being musically elegant and emotional (and as you brilliantly describe: "healing"). Some love the lyrics and can relate. It is those who appreciate both that really love PF. I guess we appreciate the value of the experience of getting ripped open and healed in the same song. There is something special about the way you think...it is a gift from God.

    The ebb and flow of lyrics and moments of instrumental to let it sink in is the way of this whole album. The moment of silence you wanted after it ended is the next track on the album. Great gig in the sky is there to just sit in your feelings.

    Your analysis and the fact that you are a developer really hit home for me. My best friend growing up turned on to Pink Floyd when Dark Side came out. This message behind this song immediately grabbed me.
    Now, fifty years later, my best friend passed just before his 60th. I have now turned 60 and my wife and have decided to retire early and live what time we have left.

    An interesting aspect to this song is the progression of life it covers. The first verse is childhood, wasting the hours, the middle is adult life, chasing the sun, and then the final verse is old age, warming your bones by the fire at home and then, finally, your funeral at the church. Also, during the opening, the power chord rings out twelve times, the clock, tolling away.

    I first started listening to Pink Floyd back in 1975 when I was a teenager. And to this day I still pull out Dark Side of the Moon, Animals, Wish you were here and, of course, The Wall. Maybe it's a developer thing but it really appeals to me. Also of note The Alan Parsons Project, "Tales of Mystery and Imagination" and "I Robot" are great. I believe Alan Parsons was one of the engineers on Dark Side of the Moon. Enjoy!

If you watch anything from the 1994 Pulse concert you'll notice there's thousands of people sitting there absolutely still! That's what they do to you beside their music and lyrics being brilliant both! Enjoy watching you discover them like I did! Their music's even Beyond out of left field I don't think they're of this Earth! Keep up the good work and you'll hit 100K pretty soon!!
    "Us and Them" from the Same album will put you in the same galaxy or headspace! It's an incredible song that sings about the differences of the classes and War!
    And as far as life, life is chasing the sun and not catching it!

    Back in O.C. Calif when I was 30 my wife heard a commercial on the radio about a P.F. show coming up. Knowing I am a Floyd fan she called the radio station (KMET - LA, “The Mighty Met”) to get information on the concert, The DJ on live radio Cynthia Fox…. said...."Congratulations, YOU are caller number 10, YOU just won tickets to the show and the Sound Check Party before the show"...
    I met David Gilmour back stage. He gave us both a signed album that I have in my music room. We talked for 22 minutes. I called him…“The Master Of The Stratocaster” He smiled. I told him his music will stand the test of time with anything from Beethoven or Mozart. He smiled even bigger. I asked if I could shake both his hands that make such great guitar solos, he smiled bigger and said “Sure” and shook both hands at the same time, making a cross between us, I smiled HUGE. I asked him to describe his technique of playing guitar, he replied… “I strike a note, bend it, shake it and then release it”…. Yes, he does that quite well, better than any other guitarist I know. . I told him in my eyes he’s a “Legend“. He thanked me and said “Enjoy the show”…. during the concert after the song “Money” he looked right at me and said…. “On saxophone, another Legend, Mr. Raphael Ravenscroft” … acknowledging my comment to him. It is my favorite moment in over 300 shows I’ve seen.
    I asked David…. How do you create those awesome solos?… he said….. I sit on a stool and listen to what Roger, Nick and Rick put down and play along. I listen to what I played and pick out what I like, then I put the pieces together into one piece then learn to play it as one. Our fans are fanatics for our shows to sound like the albums so I must play it correctly each time in a show. I have the concert Brochure and album on the wall with David’s picture centerfold.
    All of us fortunate enough to have seen this show live were in a TRANCE.... MESMERIZED the entire show... as you can imagine. We walked out saying.... What did we just witness? That was out of this world incredible. The Red Fender Stratocaster he used for this concert in the Guitar Collector World is ....PRICELESS

  • @WardDorrity
    @WardDorrity 2 ปีที่แล้ว +17

    You get it, sir. There's an astonishing amount of genius in Pink Floyd's music. If you want to really have your mind blown, Listen to PF's live performance of Comfortably Numb. Comfortably Numb is one of the most extraordinary pieces of music ever composed. I always felt that towards the end, it became the funeral march of a lost and tormented soul. All of the anguish and regret of something glimpsed and lost is distilled and channeled into one extended searing cry. This never gets old. Ever. It speaks to something that we all know and cannot be expressed in any other way. Music - real music is a language all its own. Extraordinary musicians like David Gilmour can communicate their inner experiences as few can today. Gilmour’s guitar appears to be connected directly to his soul. Some musicians can manage that for a few moments. For Gilmour, it’s his natural state of being. It is unmistakable and cannot be faked.

    "Time" is a masterpiece into the masterpiece ("The Dark Side of the Moon" album). Just like the album itself, the song basically follow a person life: from the youth, when you have plenty of time to waste, to the maturity and the aging, when you take consciousness that your life is not unlimited, to the old age and the death. The bell, the faithful on their knees and the magic spells are indeed references to a religious service, arguably the funeral, and death is, not coincidentally, the theme of the subsequent song in the album, "The Great Gig in the Sky".

    Roger is also a brilliant bass player, that tick tock is him playing it on the bass.
