Brain Damage/Eclipse by Pink Floyd [HQ] 

"There is no dark side of the moon really. As a matter of fact, its all dark." - My favourite Pink Floyd line ever (and its hidden away at the very end of the album very quietly)

Imagine it's 1973, you just got the new Floyd album, by that time they were an underground prog rock band known for phsychedelic offerings like "Careful With That Axe Eugene" and "Arnold Lane", the only foreshadowed evidence at what might be waiting inside the black and rainbow clad sleeve a still fairly unknown gem "Echoes". The album cover doesn't really allude to anything special, the song titles offer no hint as to what's inside. You place it on the turntable, drop the needle, plug in your stereo headphones, and . . .

In an interview with Louder Sound, Roger Water revealed: "I wrote Brain Damage at home. The grass [mentioned in the lyric] was the square in between the River Cam and King’s College chapel [in Cambridge]. The lunatic was Syd [Barrett], really. He was obviously in my mind."

"Everything under the sun is in tune... But the sun is eclipsed by the moon." Honest, profound...dystopic and relevant as ever in these days of naive, blind, technological optimism. Fifty years later and the lyrical warning is still prescient.

Playing this song during my last few minutes of being 13. Happy birthday me.

One of the most classic of all time. Believe That

Been singing this all day. Eclipse day😊

"You raise the blade, you make the change. You arrange me 'til I'm sane. You lock the door, and throw away the key. There's someone in my head, but it's not me." Tool summed that up nicely.... "Over thinking, over analyzing, separates the body from the mind."

back with another eclipse babey

I remember when this album came out and Pink Floyd emerged from progscurity into the fore front of FM rock. This song was a bonus.

This whole album is amazing

And if the band your in starts playing different tunes, i'll see you on the Dark Side of the Moon!! Greatest album ever created.

Happy Birthday Roger Waters born on September 6, 1943. He is an English musician. In 1965, he co-founded the rock band Pink Floyd as the bassist. Following the departure of the songwriter, Syd Barrett, in 1968, Waters became Pink Floyd's lyricist, co-lead vocalist and conceptual leader until his departure in 1985. - en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roger_Waters#

one of the best albums ever made

The lunatic is on the grass. The lunatic is on the grass, Rememberin’ games, and daisy chains, and laughs. Got to keep the loonies on the path. The lunatic is in the hall. The lunatics are in my hall. The paper holds their folded faces to the floor, And every day, the paper boy brings more. And if the dam breaks open many years too soon, And if there is no room up on the hill, And if your head explodes with dark forbodin’s, too, I'll see you on the dark side of the moon. Oh-oh-oh. The lunatic is in my head. The lunatic is in my head. You raise the blade. You make the change. You rearrange me 'til I'm sane. You lock the door, and throw away the key. There's someone in my head . . . but it's not me. And if the cloud bursts Thunder in your ear, You shout, and no one seems to hear, Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh. And if the band you're in Starts playin’ different tunes, hey-hey-hey, I'll see you on the dark side of the moon. Oh-oh-oh. All thatcha touch, and all thatcha see, All thatcha taste; all you feel, And all thatcha love, and all thatcha hate, All you distrust; all you save, And all thatcha give; all you give; And all thatcha deal, And all thatcha buy, beg, borrow, Or steal; hey-hey; And all you create, and all you destroy; whoa; And all thatcha do, and all thatcha say; hey-yeah; And all that that you eat, and everyone you meet, Everyone you meet; And all thatcha slight, And everyone you fight; whoa-whoa; And all that is now, and all that is gone, And all that's to come, And everything under the sun is in tune. But the sun is eclipsed by the moon. There is no dark side in the moon, really. Matter of fact, it's all dark.

I’m gonna listen to this in 2028, in Australia, during the total eclipse. See you in 4 years!

Saw them in Montreal for my 18th birthday and the big stadium. It was my birthday present from one of my best friends in 1995. Thanks brotherman! Stay skateboarding in our dreams til we die!

Brain Damage and Eclipse are the bread and butter of prog rock, there’s nothing else like it and I love it :) (and Echoes is one of the best if not THE best meal you’ve ever had)

....possibly the single greatest album EVER MADE......David, Roger, Nick, Richard (RIP, Buddy)....

one word, amazing.

Here 👋April 8th, 2024

There is no dark side of the moon, as a matter of fact it's all dark. (It's only the sun that makes it look light)

Never ever had I had a song that made me feel so that years ago feels like an hour ago that I’m still the better me I was in the past and never has it changed me completely from who I used to be DSOTM and Pink Floyd may god truly bless you

You know everybody wants to play that one Bonnie Tyler song during the 2024 total solar eclipse… too cliche! This is the song I’ll be playing.

Anyone else listen to this during the eclipse??

Fell asleep in front of the TV and woke up when this song was playing. What a midnight trip.

This is my “everything is gonna be ok” song

Happy 50th Anniversary Dark Side Of The Moon

the lunatic is on the grass.... Woahwoahhhhh

Got me thru my Catholic High School Years.

Anyone else loves to play this song when they hang with Lucy?

Great message about mental illness, and about how to live life to the fullest.

Who else is here because of eclipse '24?

LOVE THIS !!!!!!!

Their masterpiece

incredible .

Omaggi: grandi e immortali!

Perfect song for these times, and today's partial eclipse.......

Somewhere in the universe is Jenna waiting for me❤

still trapped in time

Adoro todo el disco, pero los tres últimos temas son un prodigio de final, con este crescendo final con el que me entran ganas de llorar de emoción.

Listening to this during a Lunar Eclipse happening right now.

Temazo en mis tiempos

Who's here from the 2024 Solar Eclipse?

In 1973 the cool dudes in my college dorm had Pink Floyd and ELP on reel to reels.

Nice song

You can't enjoy the Brain Damage & Eclipse without listening to the whole album orderly

Happy 50th Dark Side of the Moon.

Apparently April 8 2024 is an eclipse. 8th day....infinity loop

Fine music🚬🗿.

Dark Side Of The Ego.

Awesome and now us and them

Oh how I love this song ,Dedicated to Sid Barret

Can’t believe I didn’t think to listen to this during the eclipse. I’m so stupid!!!

If Moon Knight gets a second season, we better hear Brain Damage at some point in the show.

Gente eu tô escutando música essa música é legal

Roger Waters and David Gilmore r legends

There is no dark side of the moon, really. Matter of fact, it's all dark !!

ellipse live is best xxx

This is sad Pink Floyd is dead long dead because to this day Gilmore and waters still argue and have beef it’s sad god bless them and god bless Pink Floyd

Cael Sanderson

If anyone needs me ill be on the dark side of the moon.

Im sorry but Pink Floyd's work was written by what I like to call esoteric poets...their music actually has layers to it,the more occult knowledge you possess the more layers you can peel back,its similar to how the Bible is written,this is a masterpiece

210th sub

and if the band your in start playing different tunes..............

greatest album of all time, not the best pink floyd album

Wade
