The song is basically about being told you are going to die.. going through the stages of anger, denial, etc all the way through to acceptance... no words... just emotions.

@AliasMark69 2 года назад

I met David Gilmour back stage at a concert in California 1984. I asked him about the meaning - reason for “Great Gig In The Sky”…. David’s answer was something like…. .I was asked if Pink Floyd would ever do a song about Religion like some others have… so I said, You are referring to the great gig in the sky they call “God“. What words could be used to describe all the pain and suffering caused by religious beliefs. All the crying and wailing from mothers who lost their husbands or sons in a war fought over religious differences. The only vocals should be just the sound of a mothers crying with pain and suffering. That’s the true intentions of the song. We didn’t want to make that public so as to avoid any religious boycott like what happened to the Beatles after Lennon made his comment about Jesus. We could not tell the singer so as to avoid her making any comments that would end up in the media. The speaking heard at the beginning was recorded at Apple records prior to the recording of the song. Roger Waters placed a recorder at the door asking anyone who walked by to answer some questions into the microphone. The doorman stopped and recorded his answer to the question….”Are You Afraid Of Dying”?. weeks before the song was recorded. It was decided to add the recording to the start of “Great Gig In The Sky”. It leads people to believe the song is about dying, but that is actually not the case. The Great Gig In The Sky…is GOD … The incredible vocals from Clare Torry happened when she did not know what they wanted. David Gilmour told her to pretend her voice is a Saxophone like on other songs on the album, no words, just tones. Results are legendary.

Travis & Suzi Back in when Pink Floyd 1st recorded this classic song, they had only one female vocalist named Clare Torry. Clare asked them how she do the vocals. They told her improvised like being born to life to death without words. Here, I think backup vocalists take turns on Clare's way.

I'm a rocker from the 70's, I've been to around 50 concerts, from ZZ Top, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Blue Oyster Cult, AC/DC and more. Then in 1994 I went to a Pink Floyd concert and was blown away. Between this song, Confortably Numb and Time I had goose bumps for around 2-1/2 hours. The light show was very impressive, I'm now 67 and listen to Rock & Roll daily. Shedmen

@@goldenboy140 Clare Torry does one of the most expressive, moving masterpieces of all time. I know alot of things are relative and this too could be, however Torry really does create something so deeply moving, there truly are no words. It's life, with all it's terrific highs and terrible lows, often hidden in our souls. This song expressed the loss I felt. so uniquely and soulfully crushing, while I was going through my divorce. The full expression of Clare Torry's voice was so relatable, I believe it was one of the greatest factors in my healing. I could feel what I could not express as a man.

this song, initially called the mortality sequence is actually about the stages of dying as from the composer richard wrights has said, from disbelief , anger, confusion, grief, mourning, acceptance and calming, it is also why they put in the words about dying in it.

@rickpearson3018 Год назад

The song before it on the album, "Time", is about how time flies by and suddenly one realizes that so much of life has passesd without us knowing it. This song is about accepting one's own death. At 65 years old, this moves me to tears as it did when I was in high school, but now I know why. Here are the words from the beginning: "I am not frightened of dying, any time will do, I don't mind. Why should I be frightened of dying? There's no reason for it, you've gotta go sometime." If you can hear this whispering you are dying."

Great your reacting to Pink Floyd playing "Great Gig in The Sky " it's off the album Dark Side of the Moon, as with all Pink Floyd album's they are concept album's (A theme from start to finish) this song is about 'Death' meaning that The Great Gig in The Sky is where you go when you die basically up to Heaven..!! I was lucky enough to be at this concert at Earls Court in London in October 1994, from the Pulse Tour, they finished the 2 year Tour off at Earls Court London playing 14 consecutive nights give or take the odd day off in between..!! The whole concert is INCREDIBLE as its well known when you see Pink Floyd play live it's not just the music it's a light and lazer show with amazing special affects..You should watch the whole concert and it will blow you away like nothing you've ever seen before, watch "Comfortably Numb" and the effects and the guitar solo by David Gilmour its known as the greatest guitar solo of all time + a giant mirror ball comes down from the ceiling in mid song and I was sitting in the top balcony directly opposite the giant mirror ball on the side of the stage I was to the left of the stage facing me PS I'd taken a 100 Magic Mushrooms 🍄 and was tripping my tits off watching them and all the mind-blowing special effects of lights and lasers and other stuff they engineered in the show at one stage a Giant Spitfire plane flew across the Stadium from the back of the Arena and crashed exploded on the stage in a massive explosion and fireball.. The original version of Dark Side of The Moon is just no lyrics and female singer her name is Clare Torry, when she went to Abbey Road studio's to sing Pink Floyd had already written the music but had no lyrics so told Clare Torry just harmonise to the song and that's how it was made incredible hey..👍🏻

Great Gig In The Sky Clair Torry Vocalist The album was released in March of 1973 but was started in 1971 and was worked on till the release date This album is considered one of Pink Floyd’s best works Roger Waters states it’s an expression of political, philosophical, humanitarian, and documentary that was desperate to get out. Pink Floyd went to Allen Parson for a female vocalist to perform the Great Gig in the Sky and he suggested Claire Torry (one of the best vocalist ever). Clair was guided by David Gilmore who told her the cut was a song written about life and the inevitable descent into death without using any words Clair was to convey this, This was when Clair decided to use her voice as an instrument and did a one take doing this and left the studio not knowing if Pink Floyd liked it or not thinking she had failed it wasn’t until the release of the album that she new her cut was used the problem was that Clair Torry was not credited as a co-writer and was not credited for any royalties which she sued for in 2004 and won. She received an undisclosed amount in the settlement. The album went to #1 on Bill Board and sold over 45 million copies it stayed on Bill Board's top 200 for 33 years

@craigkile9403 Год назад

This song is about a person that has died, and their spirit is going through the transition from denial, to fighting it, to slowly and peacefully accepting it. The original studio version was also done by a woman, Clare Torry. You need to listen to "Dark Side of the Moon" in it's entirety to really get the full effect.
