    My first time was at my apartment on a bright morning. My roomates and I were listening to something and the doorbell rang. My friend burst in with this album in his hand. "Whatever you are listening to, take it off! You have to hear this!" It was 1973 we put it on and listened, enraptured by what we were hearing. We played it through, looked at each other and PLAYED IT AGAIN! We drove a hundred miles the next day to buy tickets to see the show! We sat in the front row of the balcony and this was the first time there were speakers throughout the venue. We had three D sound and a laser light show. IT was transportational! We drove home in silence, unbelieving what had happened. I was never the same after that.

      @@Bob-yy5wn I have to disagree. Pulse is a fine performance, but the first listen of Great Gig should be the original. If nothing else, the vocal of GG is a meditation by one person (I won't say what is being considered so Sebs can get it fresh), which thematically works so much better with the single vocalist of the original, Clare Torry, rather than the 3 vocalists for the Pulse concert. Also, Clare Torry created that whole vocal line which took 3 singers to cover in the Pulse concert; it was brilliant and deserves to be appreciated for the immense creative act that it was.

    First heard it when I was 16. Around 1976. So ethereal. Me and my friends would just sit around and smoke weed, chilling. Didn't pay attention to the lyrics. As anyone who grows up with Floyd will tell you, you listen to this band forever. So, the first time I noticed the lyrics was in college. Still the lyric about missing the starting gun didn't resonate with me. Life was good. I got married after college, bought a nice house, and had kids. Then, one day I payed attention to the lyrics in earnest. Life became brutal for us when we were in our mid-40's. And has been difficult since. Life is short. Shorter than you think.
    The sound at the beginning represents a heartbeat. We only get so many of them.
    This band is brilliant. Lol. Still sit around smoking weed while listening to this. Sometimes with my kids. Who are in their 30's

      I was the quintessential hippie, an my child bride from the same country town, was mummy's lil princess?? She grew up totally devoted to me, just as her mum was to her Dad!! I tried so hard to say we are one, but we are individuals.
      Let me Breathe. Let me be an individual who loves his wife?
      Then as the kids grew, she used them as a subtitute for her Mate an Hubby??
      She confided in the kids instead of the Dad? Now we have these hybrid city hippies that only listen to mummy, because thats all they saw, as I worked 6/12 to pay the bills an school the kids.
      Sadly I am alone back out in the country where I was raised, while she controls the kids and my grandkids, that I am not allowed to see because mummy will be offended.

      Ironically I loved music, took music lessons for 13 years, embraced the arts, history, philosophy, cofounded a Progressive Rock Band, avoided drug addiction, alcoholism, don't mind being a Hippy and I'm in therapy for Complex PTSD, living my best life, while the World appears to be having slow burning existential crisis.

    When the older one was around 12 years old, I noticed that he was listening to this album in his room (without me).
    Do I need to say how I felt?
    I took the opportunity to draw his attention to the lyrics of Time and the phrase: "One day you will discover that 10 years have passed", and I said, believe me, 10 years will pass in an instant. Don´t miss the starting gun!
    Around 10/12 years later, this song happened to play and he looked at me and said: You were right. I can't believe it's been over 10 years since that day!!!

    I purchased this cd when I bought my first cd player. The album was already a classic and spoken about in reverent terms in 1984, so I gifted myself it, to be the first cd I ever purchased. I listened to it and I liked it, but it didn't resonate to me. The concepts of the music were beyond me since I was only 20 years old at the time. I couldn't relate. Through the years I would pull it out every now and then and I started to appreciate it more each time I listened to it. By the time my dad passed I became almost obsessed with the music and I would sit and listen to it for days. And then when my mother passed, it almost wrecked me. The music became very personal, and I attached it to the passing of my beloved mother. The music will be played for as long as folks listen to music, it is timeless. I gifted this music to my son, and one day he will understand why I needed to give it to him.

    A radio station used to play the entire album pretty late at night when I was a teen . It was just over a decade old but was a very loved classic. Many nights falling asleep to it playing uninterrupted on the radio.
    The stages of life... When you are young you feel like everything is so far off and away and wasting time doesn't seem to have a cost. Then it progresses to "missed the starting gun" wasting time, in fact, has cost you, and you are trying now to keep up with the world around you, trying to accomplish. I think the song being "over thought I'd something more to say" reps mid life and settling to the fact you did not do everything you had hoped and it may be too late for it now. The song changes and gets slower representing an aged person, slowing down and then goes into the "tolling of the iron bells" (church bells) and I interpret it as the people at a funeral in church for the person that was "warming their bones beside the fire" being the old person has now passed. The "softly spoken magic spells" may be the prayers being chanted at the funeral.

    The song is about time being fleeting. Each verse ages and represents an older part of life. Like in your youth when you spend the days doing nothing like you have forever. Moving on, youre just sitting around bored you realize 10 years just went by. Then you're trying to go out and make something of yourself going as fast as you can to catch up with the time lost, but the harder you work the more time just keeps going faster. You rush till you get to the end wishing you had more time. Even in the outro he's talking about coming home from traveling almost relieved to be resting his "Bones beside the fire" like an old man waiting for the end while listening to christians pray to go to heaven. And the song does change tempo as it's heading into another song but it's funny that they play with "time" in the music as well. Like everything about the song is a representation of time.

    I first heard it in 1973 at my friends house. He had a new quadraphonic sound system that instead of stereo it had 4 discrete channels with speakers placed in 4 corners of the room. Dark Side of The Moon was released on vinyl as quadraphonic recording. We sat in the middle of the room and he turn it up, he had 4 crown amps and jbl speakers all the best money could buy, the whole house vibrated. Changed me for life, I seen Floyd number of times in concert. If you get a chance play the whole album start to finish, it really is just one long song. David is singing through the strat. his voice.

    The song changes as we age. When I first heard it, I was in the first part of the song - just a young man wondering why someone didn't tell me I was an adult already. I am in the second part, about to turn 65, my work song is almost over and I was sure I was going to do more. It won't be long before I am in the final part of the song - close to the final tolling of the iron bell and the end of my life. I look forward to warming myself by the fire when I get home.

And while I can't deny that I am, as you say, that thirty-something-yo Peter Pan (I mean, just look at my pfp 😂), and listening to this song emphasizes that even more for me, it has only helped me to appreciate it even more.

    I always felt that the slowing down at the end is about the last stages of life. The song being over is a reference to your life winding down. The tolling of the Iron Bell being a reference to funerals, iron bells being not so celebratory or joyful, but mourning. softly spoken magic spells being prayers. Maybe our fear of death bringing us to religion and thoughts of the afterlife. You really need to listen to the entire album. Arguably the greatest album in Rock and Roll history. Literally reflects on the nature of life. So well structured and very carefully composed. To look at only one song is like looking at just one part of an artwork by Michelangelo or listening to one section of a symphony by Beethoven. Each piece is incredible in its own right, but seeing or hearing the whole thing gives you such a deeper appreciation. I'd love to see your reaction to the whole album, but even if you don't create a reaction, just listen to it on your own. I can tell from the way you respond to music that it would be an incredible experience that you would truly appreciate. Peace

    The first time I listened to this song, I was in the fifth grade. This was in 04, 05. And I heard Pink Floyd songs on the radio. Mainly, comfortably numb, and money. But every now and then they would play Hey You. And I was blown away but it and I asked my mom what album it was from and she told it was The Wall.
    So my plan was to ambush my mom while we were at Walmart one day and ask her to buy it. I grew up very poor, so it was very rare I got what I asked for. But when we walked by the entrainment section Walmart and asked, she walked over to the rack and picked up Dark Side of the Moon, and she told me that she would buy me The Wall, but I had to listen to this first. And I was a little resentful because my plan was also to listen to Hey You on repeat, but I was ultimately thankful because at least it’s a guarantee I have access to that song. In those days, if you didn’t have a copy of your favorite song, you had to wait for them in the radio.
    But I was still bummed on the way home, because I would have to listen to this whole album before I could get to my favorite song. And I was actually sulking and irritated. My mom had the radio on a classic rock station, and all of a sudden alarms and bells were clanging out inside the car, I got mad and went to turn it off, and she stopped me. She said “No, son. This is song is on this album I want you to listen to.” So I sat and listened.
    At that moment the band kicks in, I instantly had a new favorite song. Looking back it was an awesome experience.

    I think Floyd often gets labeled as a psychodelic band or space rock and their earlier stuff definitely fits the bill, but in their prime, I think it's all about emotion and reaching the deepest parts of our psyche. Each note evokes deep feeling and each song seems to fit various situations in your personal life. You can pretty much find a connection with anything they say.
    "Home, home again, I like to be there when I can. When I come home cold and tired, it's good to warm my bones beside the fire. Far away across the fields, tolling of the iron bells, calls the faithful to their knees, hear the softly spoken magic spell" gives me chills every single time I hear it. Those two songs go together btw. You can't play them separately.

We listened to the album the way it was meant to be heard, start to finish, only break was flipping the album from A to B, If we were having a conversation about this or any Pink Floyd work, I would be encouraging you to listen to each album in its entirety. Pink Floyds albums were never a collection of disjointed or unrelated songs that happened to get lumped together. Each song was like a chapter in a book. And while each chapter is amazing and can stand alone as a piece of artistic writing, Its like reading a middle chapter of a book and believing you comprehend the book in its entirety.

    🎊 1973, University of Alaska-Fairbanks. My first exposure to Pink Floyd’s “Dark Side of the Moon” was via a Marantz 4400 amplifier (with an oscilloscope!) plumbed through some JBL Century 100 speakers. After that, we listened to Fleetwood Mac “Mystery to Me” (‘Hypnotized,’ rang my bell!). Then I was exposed to a series of Moody Blues albums: “Days of Future Past,” “Every Good Boy Deserves Favor,” and “Seventh Sojourn.”
    Not only was I introduced to STEREO, but it was the best sound system money could buy…and at the time, I didn’t know that I was being exposed to some of the most iconic music ever recorded‼️

      Back in the day a great Stereo system was a must! I sometimes wonder how much we are missing with the computer speakers and digital vs analog sound

      @@paulvaultguy Let me tell you, good stereo systems were King, but an 18 year old college student could only sit by and admire. I forgot to mention, this guy also had a 10” reel-to-reel tape recorder. He was an audiophile with a professional sound system…in a 14’x14’ dorm room! Anyway, stereo is second grade to a QUAD Sound System. I think it was a song by Ten Years After (“Space & Time”) that really blew my mind. You know how stereo can bounce back and forth between speakers…imagine sound going around in circles with FOUR speakers!!!
      “Quadraphonic Sound,” was the shit! But it was expensive. Special quad amp. Special quad records or reel-to-reel tapes. And of course, 4 high end speakers 🔊. (Can’t cheap-out on speakers.)
      Finally, digital music has no “depth.” It’s like music is being played in a single plane; linear. Analog, on the other hand, is “warmer” and has depth. Just imagine hearing music in 3 dimensions instead of 1. “Dark Side of the Moon,” blew our socks off.
      For further research, maybe some “graybeard” at a Guitar Center might know who has a Quad set-up you can listen to.
      As another aside, I have some Kenwood 5-way speakers. That means they have 5 different diameter/styles of speakers that are individually tuned for specific frequencies…you don’t get that with “digital” shit.
      (Just a little history lesson from a 69 year old.)

      @@paulvaultguy Nothing wrong with dreaming…but you may have crossed-the-line. Now, your ears “know too much!!!” When it comes to music and what your brain knows (or doesn’t), “ignorance is bliss.”
      Let me go off on a tangent one more time. In a perfect World, listen to an MP3 recording and compare it to “AppleLossless”, a CD, and then an analog recording of the same song. MP3 cuts-off the highs and lows so that the files are tiny…so some kid can brag to his friends that he has 10,000 songs on his phone. Only people who have heard the original ALBUM know that “this sounds tinny.” CD’s are nice because there are no unwanted clicks and pops like you’d hear from a needle playing on an album. But the warmth of an analog album is worth a little background noise created by ancient technology. So if you have a choice, always choose QUALITY over quantity. (women, included)
      By the way, I’m in Puyallup for a visit.

    My mother and uncle used to be obsessed with Floyd in the 70s and 80s. (I lost them both far too young in the 90s.) They introduced me to Floyd as a child and I i remember spending many a happy afternoon or evening lying on the carpet in mom's music room, spaced-out to Floyd.

    I was 16 when I first heard PF on the underground FM station living with my parents in the SF Bay Area in 1968. UmmaGumma had just been released and my friend bought it and we listened to it in his room at his house. We played the entire double album set - and we looked the same as you - speechless. Sadly, we Floydies just get older but our respect and awe to have been a part of the PF 'LIVE' generation will never leave... Welcome to the best music ever made.

    I was 19. Went over to an older friend's house. They were watching a PF concert video of Dark Side of the Moon. The first song I focused on was Great Gig In The Sky. I went out and bought the cassette the next day. I remember exactly what street, what corner, the absolute feeling of bliss from the first note of this song. Became my favorite song of my whole life from that day on. Pink Floyd makes me float.

    Yes, it is another song. Every song on this album runs into the next one and the song Breathe is split into two. The first part was earlier in the album and finishes directly after Time.

    My friends and I used to listen to this record in our parents' comfortable dimly lit living rooms from start to finish and *this part of the song* really isn't over - it's just the beginning. Watch a live version video to see that woman sing. It's well worth your time.

    Time stops for no man, we chase dreams, money, love but we also waste time. We realize were all going to die, you cant stop it.. Time is short , say things now , do things now. Live now because later may not come. I first heard this song a month after the album came out . I sat down and just soaked it all up at once.

    It was 1976, Grade 10 English, when I heard, Dark Side Of The Moon. It changed me. The English teacher, “I’m going to play this music and show some slides”. Pictures of farms, homesteads, etc, The music blew my teenager mind. I vowed to see Pink Floyd live, and did, in 1995. “Meddle” is an awesome album. Have seen, “The Wall” four times. The more stoned you are, the more sense the movie makes… ;) Pink Floyd spans generations, languages, countries. The music is an experience, and takes you on a journey.
