Once you hit 80 ( I'm 82 ) your real sense of Mortality kicks in, and it's true that Time is like a toilet roll, the nearer you get to the end, the faster it goes. But listening to music like this has kept me feeling young at heart, in fact I'm still managing to rock a bit, mainly in my rocking chair. Love and peace from Perth Australia 😎🎵🎶🎵🖐🦘
@@brainsqueezereactions thanks for your post, I'd like to say that keeping a sense of humour does wonders to oneself, I'm really happy to see young people keeping this music alive, and your reactions are something to behold. PS. I was born 1940,and lived my first 26 years in London, wife and I have been married for 60 years, and came to Perth in 1966. Looking forward to you reacting to maybe Stevie Ray Vaughan doing a jimi Hendrix song Voodoo Child ( live) take care my friend,I have a million riffs in my head but can't play a note (ha ha)
@Justin Thyme I'm 57. I have a son who will be 19 soon. I literally feel like 5 weeks ago he was six or seven LOL. I'm huge Led Zeppelin fan and I love Pink Floyd. Jimmy Page and David Gilmour are my two favorite guitarists of all time. This song makes me cry now when I listen to it LOL
@@brainsqueezereactionsYes yes yes. Yes yes. Yes! This oh my gosh I freaking love this comment! I love that his sensory overload requires him to say f#ck off😂❤
This song typically leaves people feeling very emotional, often bringing them to tears. A subject that every human can relate to-running out of time. This line: "No one told you when to run, you missed the starting gun" is one of the most profound lines ever written. It gets me every time.
Go ahead and be yourself listening to these songs because they're pretty good by themselves the only thing is don't be surprised if a song ends suddenly or ends in a way you don't understand! That happens sometimes when you listen to a single song that usually transitions into the next if you're listening to the whole album! Other than that keep enjoying the music! I think most of the people watching your reactions are enjoying those! Kind of like how we acted in March of 1973!
I listen to Pink Floyd every day of my life, and seeing reactors like yourself experiencing their music for the first time makes me so happy, it reminds me of how i felt when i first heard them, keep up the good work man✌
Your Floyd reactions are rapidly becoming the highlight of my day. Watching you fall into the Floyd universe is taking me back to when I was first discovering them - 50 years ago! Keep doing you - you really make me smile.
I love the fact that it’s 50 fk’n years gone by…50 FK’N years 😳😳😳😳 and it’s like it was recorded today…TIME of a different sort I guess 🤷♂️ I absolutely LOVE these “first time” reactions….incredibly awesome !!! I wait in quiet desperation 😏 for the next one 👍👍👍👍
Oh, forgot to tell you: The song that comes after the song "Time" is called "The Great Gig In The Sky". It doesn't matter when but at some point you should listen to studio version of The Great Gig In The Sky. It is an amazing track and there are live versions but for a first listen, I respectfully suggest studio version.
I built the Fender Rhodes Electric Piano used in this song while working at Fender 1970-1977 and so many others used in classic rock/pop tunes from that era.
Their lyrics are profound. The music just brings you in slow, slams your head against the sky and then throws you face down in a dream. Love, love, love Pink Floyd.
This album is 50 years old next year and is as relevant now as it was then. This is a truly timeless album, it's not just a collection of songs but a true examination of life.
The softly spoken magic spell He speaks of at the end of the track is The Great GIg in the Sky and Clare Torry which will literally blow your emotional mind!
She's only on the dark side of the moon version not the pulse version. It takes 2 women to sing what she did and it is probably the only song from that concert that is better on the studio version. Just my opinion. ✌
The lyrics in this piece are the most important. In 10 years, this piece will be about something else. In another 10 years, something else is still about. In fact, it is a text about the whole life, which is in one song
Alan Parsons produced this album, it was his first! Check out some of Alan Parsons Project. Sirius/eye in the sky is one of the greatest...there are many. As for this album..grab a beverage, a recliner, no distractions, good head phones. Play the entire album and take the journey. Allow for some recovery time. Never gets old.
It reaches you on a subconscious level. Like a musical story. The page starts off keeps you there. Curious of what's next. The page turner, you have to listen. Just so awesome isn't it!!! 1000's of listens Never loses its magic!!!! Cheers
Pink Floyd is on another level, their music takes the listener on a cerebral journey. Their music speaks to a person's soul, its a trance like feeling for some people David Gilmours' guitar playing is a big part of that, a person feels his playing. He makes his Stratocaster sing, cry, and scream, in a way that's pure emotion. No other Rock guitarists do that imo. Pink Floyd roots are in Blues, just like virtually every Rock Band that came out of England in the 1960s. They took their band name from two old time American Blues guitarists from the early to mid 1900s. They are,.... PINK Anderson, (1900 - 1974),... and, FLOYD Council, (1911 - 1976).
I quoted Pink Floyd in my High School Year Book: "For long you live and high you fly, Smiles you'll give and tears you'll cry, All you touch and all you see, Is all your life will ever be".
I went through what you are experiencing with Pink Floyd in the early/mid 1970s, although less, er 'expressively' than you. It all took place in my head in silence and with stillness ... but was no less dramatic for it (we all express ourselves in different ways). It was such a revelation and helped steer my musical path for the following 50 years.
The clock alarms are conception -- the two heartbeats are mother and child and the fist twang on the guitar is consciousness beginning -- and this song takes you all the way to the inevitable end
Love your reaction mate. As others have said it's about time speeding up as you get older. This song contains so many good lyrics, perhaps my favourite ever is; Far away across the field, The tolling of the iron bell, Calls the faithful to their knees, To hear the softly spoken magic spells. I think that you almost have to be British to get this , it's describing the ringing of a church bell calling people to Church to listen to prayers (softly spoken magic spells). Now I'm not a religious man, but that is beautiful man.
The natural thing to do now is to listen to Great Gig in the Sky (pls use studio not live version for 1st listen)... as the songs flow one into another, suggest at least 30 secs of end of Time to allow the natural leadin... to GGITS. Enjoy! :)
PF speaks to your soul not your senses. This music is as powerful and relevant 50 years later. The album DSTM is still in the Billboard 200 and has been for a combined 950+ weeks or 18+ years.
As someone who is about to die looking back on a wasted life when I could have done something I didn't and now I can't even get out of bed , 40 years went by so fast and I won't see 41 this song means so much more than it did 30 years ago when I first heard it but by the time I learned it's message it was too late
💔 Well trent, consider me taking that baton and making sure I get as many messages recieved and understood in Pink Floyd before you pass and share it with you! 🙌🙌🙌
Please Try not to despair .I know those words may sound hollow and without meaning but consider though you may not know the positive influence you have had on individuals during your life .someone may have been watching how you deal with issues unknown to you your actions could have begun a change in another person witch will affect every aspect not only their life but other people in their life path for good. And that is a blessing in these strange times to be able to bring about goodness in a world seemingly going mad .you may think that you wasted your life but just being alive for how ever long it lasts your life was more special and rare than you can imagine. Do you know the odds for you to come into being, to exist are so low as to be closer to impossible the fact that you are here makes you and your life worth everything just by being ,you are a winner on a scale that has no comparable scale.i pray the lord will make a miracle happen in your life .peace and love from ky
Wow....look at you becoming a Pink Floyd fan 🙌 Missed seeing you all week so starting backwards to catch up. Love how you love these guys!! Hope your weekend was wonderful!
This is why I started. Watching reaction videos - not to listen to someone constantly pause the track to talk, but to re-live the first time I heard this through another listener. Keep doing it this way! Suggest you listen to more from Pulse if you are exploring Floyd. I listen to all sorts of music and have a very eclectic range for my 67 years. Just for laughs, try Rammstein - I would suggest Du Hast from the Paris concert as a starter..
Told this story before, will tell it again. I was 19 and went to my first concert ever. Pink Floyd - Dark Side of the Moon. Opening performance of their American tour, Madison, Wisconsin. This performance, this album has filled my soul ever since. I love your reaction, I love reliving what it's like to hear it for the first time, even though it's my 5 millionth. Thank you thank you thank you.
If I ever see you tell the story I will give it a THUMBS UP as I did just now!!!! Where ever life finds you I hope it finds you and those that you love safe and well....AHIMSA!!!! 🕉
The song is about humans and their limited time on earth. One day you're 40 and you realize you've missed so much... it's almost over and you've wasted so much time...I hate it lol I love it but I hate it so much lol
When you get to the track directly after this, you may realise why so many on here want you to listen to the whole album in one hit, the whole of DSOTM is a story, i´m sure you will get round to it, having said that, many of their albums are, but yes enjoy it your way, there´s plenty of TIME.
An amazing album and absolutely worth a listen start to finish at some point in your life. I don't want to be 'one of those guys' and I'm certainly not upset with you for listening to PF however and in whatever order you like lol. Just, genuinely, the full album is really a nice experience. The whole thing is like 45mins so it's not too bad. I would like to emphasize, this is merely a suggestion and certainly not a complaint! It's just great to hear you so excited!
I wonder if the people who tell you that the songs have to be listened to in a certain order call the radio stations when they play just one song and not the whole album. If they want to hear it all in order they know where to find it. Listen how you want because it's wonderful to see your love of this music. Btw, you might need a seatbelt for Animals, my friend. 🌈💗
Can you please listen to and break down as much as you can of "The Fletcher Memorial Home" by Roger Waters (lead singer of Pink Floyd). I don't understand any of the history as we aren't taught here in USA. BTW, the album "Final Cut" is Roger Waters' solo follow up to "The Wall"
Ha! Have a good kip, but don't go watching your life pass before you. Time now for a suggestion....or two....or three. "Money' is on the money for an expansive groove, 'Dogs' (just a suggestion, "with lyrics") for an epic encounter and 'Hey You' for mental awareness and emotion.

Hello Mark. I'm 67 and have been a rocker since 1974. We had grad night for high school at Disneyland. The Doobie Brothers played and I loved it. I've been to around 50 concerts since then. In 1994 I went to the Pink Floyd Pulse Concert and was blown away. Comfortably Numb, The Great Gig in the Sky and Time gave me goose bumps for around 2-1/2 hours. The laser light show was mind blowing. Rock on, Marvin Hutchinson.
"Music porn". lol I just love watching you man!! They say Pink Floyd music is for stoners, when the truth is, their music is the drug. I'm glad to be a Floyd drug addict!!
I find it deeply sad that the first verse “tired of lying in the sunshine, staying home to watch the rain - and you are young and life is long, and there is time to kill today…” is sung by Richard Wright -the only member who is gone too young at 65, due to cancer. 😢
You are right about the meaning of the song. It is about time racing by, about a sudden realization that ten years have passed, and you feel like you missed them, and how each year of your life feels shorter than those that went before it. You are also right about the song leading up to the end of time, at least within the context of a single life. On the album (Dark Side of the Moon), Time flows directly into the next song, The Great Gig in the Sky, which is about death. You have probably gotten requests for Great Gig in the Sky, and it is a classic that will blow your mind.
This song is time passing by too quickly, which flows seamlessly into the next song on the album. The Great Gig In The Sky is all of the stages of death. It's beautiful. Maybe give it a listen next.
Knew this one was coming haha fkn quality mate. Explain why I get a massive buzz watching you exploding with joy over the Floyd man? I don't even know you hahahaaa
It's the arc of time through your life; when you're young, all of your time is ahead of you, & you don't think about it. Then in your thirties [or so ] you realize that a lot of your three score years & ten are past, & you'd better get a move on. Before you know it, it is all behind you, & you look back on what you've done, and not done with your time..... Even more remarkably, this was written by men who were still young [ish] at the time.
I saw Pink Floyd in 73 at Tampa Stadium the year Dark Side came out. I was 16 and been a fan since my grandmother gave me one of their albums along with CCR’s first album for Christmas when I was 12 in 1969. Best Christmas ever. Thanks grandma, you changed my life.
Funny that you describe the song as leading up to death, as the next song on the album, 'The Great Gig in the Sky'' is about death and dying, as It's title implies.
I'll be 50 in 2 days and have always loved Pink Floyd but this track is hitting well differently now! They are an experience..their albums a journey and full of emotion...always amazing lyrics &/or 👌musicianship. Please keep up the great work and enjoy!
"...All you touch, and all you see.. is all your life will ever be." This statement couldn't be more true! So live your life to its fullest, get out there and do all kinds of new things, you'll win some, you'll lose some... but it's one helluva journey, make the most of it!..., lemme just say that much.
Man, I like so much such physical emotion, music is pure emotion and you feel it the right way 🙂Now that you have experienced some tracks, my humble advice is to start to focus on some albums, one by one, to have a deeper immersion in the context 🙂 The best album to start is "The dark side of the moon" (1973), the one that contains this song, then the next three albums they released after it during the 70s: "Wish you were here" (the one with Shine on you crazy diamond), "Animals", "The wall" (the one with Comfortably numb).
I am glad you are enjoying Pink Floyd, however FLOYD is meant as a calming and chilling experience and you are suppose to relax into the Rhythm not the BEAT. Being a HIP HOP fan you are use to focusing on Beat. Nothing wrong with that, however the flow of the calm creek or river vs the raging rapids of a flooded river. This is the difference between following the flow of rhythm over beat. Beat is hard and harsh, rhythm is all the parts between the beat. Like the difference between karate vs kung fu. Karate is hard and direct and kung fu is flowing and soft and smooth for the most part, however there are a few styles that are more harsh. Head banging to Floyd is strange to see, but be yourself of course.
Unfortunately its not actually all hip hop, im sensory overload AdHd, so i kinda have to always be on the go. Throw in emotions and things like this smashing my senses to the universe makes it difficult to stay still and head movement seems to be my default to keep "some" kind of normality 🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌⏪️🧠 Kind of like a tik, not exactly but close too. (I study emotional intelligence most my working life, so be thankful this is actually controlled 🤣🤣🤣🤣)
Much like Comfortably Numb, the guitar solo in this one is epic. For another example of Gilmour going into "beast mode" check out Pigs (3 different ones) from the Animals album... it's life changing :) Rock On!
I've commented before on some Pink Floyd reactions, but somehow I feel the urge to comment more on yours. Well, then I have to say something new about this song that I haven't said before. Because there are so many Floydians here with whom we share the same sentiments, and sometimes that's well enough; new topics to discuss may not be necessary. Ok.. i) mostly the guitar solos of Floyd songs are more delicious in live concert recordings, because Gilmour enriches them to heighten the emotion. But for this song, guitar solo in this studio version is the best in my opinion. In this studio version the repetitive pattern goes in the higher and higher register and makes a perfect peak. For some reason, Gilmour didn't prefer it like this at live concerts, and he limited the solo to a more modest range. Of course they are all beautiful, but I would prefer this version for live concerts as well.. ii) this song has a long intro that might be boring for some newcomers. But in my opinion, it's the most Wagnerian progression I've ever heard in the history of rock music during all these years (I know, that sounds weird..) Anyway.. A timeless song about the passing time..
I hope when you do Brain Damage, that you do Eclipse as well because they're basically one song. They should have just made it one song in the first place because one bleeds into the other and they keep the same tune throughout.
Once you hit 80 ( I'm 82 ) your real sense of Mortality kicks in, and it's true that Time is like a toilet roll, the nearer you get to the end, the faster it goes. But listening to music like this has kept me feeling young at heart, in fact I'm still managing to rock a bit, mainly in my rocking chair. Love and peace from Perth Australia 😎🎵🎶🎵🖐🦘

You want to feel a Pink Floyd track?
Great Gig in the Sky is one of their best. Clare Torry's vocals were on a higher plane.
I quoted Pink Floyd in my High School Year Book: "For long you live and high you fly, Smiles you'll give and tears you'll cry, All you touch and all you see, Is all your life will ever be".

Just, genuinely, the full album is really a nice experience. The whole thing is like 45mins so it's not too bad. I would like to emphasize, this is merely a suggestion and certainly not a complaint! It's just great to hear you so excited!
Lol! I thank you for the suggestion and can assure I read it as soley a suggestion that im gonna take you up on one day 💯 🙌🙌🙌🙌⏪️🧠
Indeed yes, I'm 67 now!
Thoughts of mortality start kicking in !
Oh Bollocks , Fuck em!!!
It's all we've got , embrace every moment!!...
Piece of time-less Art! 😍😇Tyvm indeed 4 sharing 🎸💪🙏
the beginning of back to the future was an homage to this song actually.
Whaaaaaat!!!!!! That.is.amazinggggg!
I wonder if the people who tell you that the songs have to be listened to in a certain order call the radio stations when they play just one song and not the whole album. If they want to hear it all in order they know where to find it. Listen how you want because it's wonderful to see your love of this music. Btw, you might need a seatbelt for Animals, my friend. 🌈💗
🤣🤣🤣
You f*#*ing kill me man 🤣.... loving the mighty Floyd reactions .... 👍 😊 the songs on there albums run into the next as the story unfolds
Casio Keyboard? Do you remember? - Yes! I do!
It's funny watching you cos I sit quietly with a still face and body but inside I'm doing what you're doing :)
Ha! Love that...happy to be your emotional boost
Your enthusiasm is contagious. 36? That's not fair. I thought 20 something.
Ill take that as a compliment 😊😊😊😊⏪️🧠 afraid I am 36 my friend 🙌🙌🙌
May I suggest Sorrow from Pulse.....Another masterpiece-
Jimi Hendrix.... Great choice, just try some Deep Purple.. child in time is a good start...
"I don't know if it's a horror film, or I'm part of a tribe".
Fucking genius. Both.
Can you please listen to and break down as much as you can of "The Fletcher Memorial Home" by Roger Waters (lead singer of Pink Floyd). I don't understand any of the history as we aren't taught here in USA.
BTW, the album "Final Cut" is Roger Waters' solo follow up to "The Wall"
They recorded this album with 8 track reel-to-reel. Early 70’s technology, and I would put this album up against any album ever made.
Ha! Have a good kip, but don't go watching your life pass before you.
Time now for a suggestion....or two....or three. "Money' is on the money for an expansive groove, 'Dogs' (just a suggestion, "with lyrics") for an epic encounter and 'Hey You' for mental awareness and emotion.
Hello Mark. I'm 67 and have been a rocker since 1974. We had grad night for high school at Disneyland. The Doobie Brothers played and I loved it. I've been to around 50 concerts since then. In 1994 I went to the Pink Floyd Pulse Concert and was blown away. Comfortably Numb, The Great Gig in the Sky and Time gave me goose bumps for around 2-1/2 hours. The laser light show was mind blowing. Rock on, Marvin Hutchinson.
"Music porn". lol I just love watching you man!! They say Pink Floyd music is for stoners, when the truth is, their music is the drug. I'm glad to be a Floyd drug addict!!
One of my favorite songs ever.
I find it deeply sad that the first verse “tired of lying in the sunshine, staying home to watch the rain - and you are young and life is long, and there is time to kill today…” is sung by Richard Wright -the only member who is gone too young at 65, due to cancer. 😢
To try the other end of the classic rock spectrum, I would recommend AC/DC Highway to Hell at River Plate.
Get to the Wall!! Hey you and Comfortably Numb will blow your mind. Love the reactions, keep it up 😁
Have you listened to some Talking Heads ?
I really love your Pink Floyd reactions 😍 Can not wait for One Slip! Have a Cigar and One Slip are my favourites of them.
I'd say from his reaction that Pink Floyd got to him. It's understandable. They pretty much have that effect on everyone.
You are right about the meaning of the song. It is about time racing by, about a sudden realization that ten years have passed, and you feel like you missed them, and how each year of your life feels shorter than those that went before it. You are also right about the song leading up to the end of time, at least within the context of a single life. On the album (Dark Side of the Moon), Time flows directly into the next song, The Great Gig in the Sky, which is about death. You have probably gotten requests for Great Gig in the Sky, and it is a classic that will blow your mind.
This song is time passing by too quickly, which flows seamlessly into the next song on the album. The Great Gig In The Sky is all of the stages of death. It's beautiful. Maybe give it a listen next.
Knew this one was coming haha fkn quality mate. Explain why I get a massive buzz watching you exploding with joy over the Floyd man? I don't even know you hahahaaa
You must do Shine On You Crazy Diamond and Money. You'll explode during those lol
Ok. I'm literally stopping the video to hook up my earbuds so I can experience this the right way with my you
It's the arc of time through your life; when you're young, all of your time is ahead of you, & you don't think about it. Then in your thirties [or so ] you realize that a lot of your three score years & ten are past, & you'd better get a move on. Before you know it, it is all behind you, & you look back on what you've done, and not done with your time.....
Even more remarkably, this was written by men who were still young [ish] at the time.
If Pink Floyd doesn"t do things to ypu, you're probably dead. Great job.
He said enjoyed the live concert, but I don't see Nick's light up Tom's.
I saw Pink Floyd in 73 at Tampa Stadium the year Dark Side came out. I was 16 and been a fan since my grandmother gave me one of their albums along with CCR’s first album for Christmas when I was 12 in 1969. Best Christmas ever. Thanks grandma, you changed my life.
Funny that you describe the song as leading up to death, as the next song on the album, 'The Great Gig in the Sky'' is about death and dying, as It's title implies.
The great gig in the sky follows this one and you will be amazed.
Great reaction again! You got it!
Senor Hector. I most seriously believe you will love Dogs. It’s a beast of 17 minutes.
I'll be 50 in 2 days and have always loved Pink Floyd but this track is hitting well differently now! They are an experience..their albums a journey and full of emotion...always amazing lyrics &/or 👌musicianship. Please keep up the great work and enjoy!
"...All you touch, and all you see.. is all your life will ever be." This statement couldn't be more true! So live your life to its fullest, get out there and do all kinds of new things, you'll win some, you'll lose some... but it's one helluva journey, make the most of it!..., lemme just say that much.
Man, I like so much such physical emotion, music is pure emotion and you feel it the right way 🙂Now that you have experienced some tracks, my humble advice is to start to focus on some albums, one by one, to have a deeper immersion in the context 🙂 The best album to start is "The dark side of the moon" (1973), the one that contains this song, then the next three albums they released after it during the 70s: "Wish you were here" (the one with Shine on you crazy diamond), "Animals", "The wall" (the one with Comfortably numb).
You have to react to Pink Floyd's "Welcome to the machine"
Roger Waters' solo albums are just like listening to Pink Floyd minus David Guilmore but, the massaging of the mind's eye is the same.
Yes. It is intellectual music porn. And rototoms😂
1976 ….. Holden Sandman Panel Van …pioneer quadraphonic stereo… cranking out Pink Floyd… the best ✊✊✊✊
I am glad you are enjoying Pink Floyd, however FLOYD is meant as a calming and chilling experience and you are suppose to relax into the Rhythm not the BEAT. Being a HIP HOP fan you are use to focusing on Beat. Nothing wrong with that, however the flow of the calm creek or river vs the raging rapids of a flooded river. This is the difference between following the flow of rhythm over beat. Beat is hard and harsh, rhythm is all the parts between the beat. Like the difference between karate vs kung fu. Karate is hard and direct and kung fu is flowing and soft and smooth for the most part, however there are a few styles that are more harsh. Head banging to Floyd is strange to see, but be yourself of course.
Unfortunately its not actually all hip hop, im sensory overload AdHd, so i kinda have to always be on the go. Throw in emotions and things like this smashing my senses to the universe makes it difficult to stay still and head movement seems to be my default to keep "some" kind of normality 🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌⏪️🧠 Kind of like a tik, not exactly but close too.
(I study emotional intelligence most my working life, so be thankful this is actually controlled 🤣🤣🤣🤣)
All good Brian try out Rammstein Engal official video or live both are amazing as well
Floyd take you on a journey every time. Your understanding about this song is spot on about time passing us by so quickly. Love your reactions.
that g solo is a killer, never forgot it since i was a teenager.
Much like Comfortably Numb, the guitar solo in this one is epic. For another example of Gilmour going into "beast mode" check out Pigs (3 different ones) from the Animals album... it's life changing :) Rock On!
you pretty much done most of my faves of Floyd if you get a chance wish you was here is a really good song enjoying your reactions much love bud
That was how we reacted in the early 70’s when this album dropped, life was never the same 😎
I've commented before on some Pink Floyd reactions, but somehow I feel the urge to comment more on yours. Well, then I have to say something new about this song that I haven't said before. Because there are so many Floydians here with whom we share the same sentiments, and sometimes that's well enough; new topics to discuss may not be necessary. Ok.. i) mostly the guitar solos of Floyd songs are more delicious in live concert recordings, because Gilmour enriches them to heighten the emotion. But for this song, guitar solo in this studio version is the best in my opinion. In this studio version the repetitive pattern goes in the higher and higher register and makes a perfect peak. For some reason, Gilmour didn't prefer it like this at live concerts, and he limited the solo to a more modest range. Of course they are all beautiful, but I would prefer this version for live concerts as well.. ii) this song has a long intro that might be boring for some newcomers. But in my opinion, it's the most Wagnerian progression I've ever heard in the history of rock music during all these years (I know, that sounds weird..)
Anyway.. A timeless song about the passing time..
that's Waters plucking his bass at the beginning ... I think.
You must really listen to the lyrics, these song have message.
This one gets better when you age, like a good wine.
I hope when you do Brain Damage, that you do Eclipse as well because they're basically one song. They should have just made it one song in the first place because one bleeds into the other and they keep the same tune throughout.
