US AND THEM, ANY COLOUR YOU LIKE, BRAIN DAMAGE, AND ECLIPSE w/lyrics REACTION 

This album is practically 50 years old now and it never gets old, true art always stands the test of time

"The paper holds their folded faces to the floor, and everyday the paperboy brings more." Is one of my all time favorite lyrics. For me, it refers to newspapers (replaced by the internet now) and this existential dread that comes with the daily news, in a "if it bleeds, it leads" society. The newspapers are folded found the middle, and the lyric really gives ne the imagery of someone reading a paper, in a quiet state of dread, which is replaced daily by the paperboy.

Pink Floyd music rarely gets blocked

I don’t drink either. Anymore.

This album is one of life's masterpieces. Saw them live in 1977 here in Milwaukee on the Animals Tour. Epic to say the least. Hearing their new music as it came out was an experience . So many nites with headphones and a joint, getting my mind expanded by these dudes...... ;) Well done bro

Pink Floyd is Legendary! No other band like Pink Floyd!

What sets you aside from a lot of RU-vidrs young man ,is how well you show respect to others ,you have an incredible trait.a rare gift indeed , fabulous 🤗👍🏾😌🇬🇧

Thats why when people say you need to take drugs to listen to prog I laugh my socks off. If you really truly give yourself to the music then the music is the only drug you need. What a high this whole album is.

My favourite album of all time.This music takes you on an outer worldly trip and spins you through galaxies that bounce and reflect light.

YES! Beautiful music. I'm so pleased you like their genius. You actually, "get it". Thank you.

Awesome that you don’t drink !! Way to be - love your reactions !

This album is so much about individualism and stepping out into the world and overcoming personal difficulties both internal and external. It stands in stark contrast to this drive today to categorize people and identify them as various groups.

I grew up with this music and it warms my heart to see how much you appreciate it💕

The Wall is a masterpiece...do the entire album.

Watching your reaction makes me want to re-hear Pink Floyd again for the first time so bad. They are truly unmatched when it comes to any genre of music. The most beautiful band of all time (in my opinion) happy you got experience them and share it with all of us 🤘🏼

Looked like you were at church in the end! All their albums are pinnacle IMO. Their Animals album is an often overlooked gem!

I was 14 years old when this came out....and to this day i have not heard a better album....i have a collection of about 800 albums 250 cds ( 4 copies of DSOTM ) and none are better, its just miles ahead of anything else....

If you want to do a full album reaction, search for "Pulse Dark side of the moon" on RU-vid. They played the full album as the second set of the Pulse concert.

"the paper holds their folded faces to the floor. And everyday the paperboy brings more" Refers to the politicians and other "crazies" who get their picture front page of the Newspapers.

That WAS ..... a very special video!! More than a few people became musicians because of this very special album. You've already tracked thru Animals and some of WYWH. Full album reaction? THE WALL awaits. The truth is most of its parts can barely be understood separately, and the Floydian whole is always far more than the sum of the parts. This album is an audiophile dream. I've heard it as it was intended to be heard, in the full quad with extended bass. Most systems cannot do it justice. Very few groups from that time made the effort to record at the absolute edge of the state of the art. I still think you will love, love, love some good over-ear headphones. They blow away earbuds or earphones. They are a gift that keeps on giving. You love music. What are you waiting for?

You totally get it

Saw them in the 1990s at Camp Randall for their Division Bell tour and it was an amazing experience. Music with a laser show in a light rain....epic.

I have been listening to this album since I was 15, almost 45 years ago. I played it THOUSANDS of times, Sometimes I doubt this music was made by humans. And BTW, I always have the same reaction as you in the end of the album, like:" what? Already over?" I ALWAYS have the impression that it took only 5 minutes.

'Us and Them' is as relevant today as it was when this song was first created. Today, it's Russia v Ukraine.

i agree, pink floyd are the masters of their craft.

Brother great reaction, i thank you for not interrupting

It was a joy to listen along. Definitely do the full album, even if just for yourself. I'm still doing full album listens, 25+-years into my fandom, and there's the original guard who have been doing the same for nearly 50 years

Couldn't have said it better myself bud

love you

Wish you could do a full album reaction to DSOTM; it's so brilliant. Maybe you can do one for Wish You Were Here album. The songs blend together on these concept albums.

First time I got really really high, I gave this album a "spin". It was a truly unique experience.

Dude, I put my phones on and listened with you. Awesome reaction.

Maybe try the Wall That is an album that is a whole story. Dark side is one of the ten greatest albums ever. It’s truly timeless

I'm bawlin😭

Can tell that you really felt the music you heard....glad to see that the younger generations love the music just as much as we did when we heard it when it was released almost 50 yrs ago...simply amazing the journey they take you on...well done bro....Pink Floyd let's you do full album reactions ... You owe it to yourself to go back to the first album and every albums from start to finish✌️out bro🎧🎙️🎹🎶🎵🎼🎸🎷🥁😜👍

Welcome to the magic of their albums in full.

When i pass to the other side, i want to listen to this album on my way there.

My favorite Pink Floyd album and my introduction to the group in the '70's. As mentioned by others in the comments, I am very happy to see younger people enjoying the music of my youth. Keep up the great work.

New subscriber Pôpe (like you'll see this 😂), but I dug how animated and just in sync with the songs you were with your body language. Says a lot about a person IMO. Keep up the great content dude.

Perfect a nd. Beautiful

Another great reaction. Not enough people react to "Brain Damage". BTW, the line "If there is no room upon the hill" refers to "Fool on the Hill" from the Beatles "Sergeant Peppers" album which was another ground breaking album from just 5 years earlier, and which was being put down in the Abbey Road studio whilst PF were recording their album "Piper at the Gates of Dawn" in the adjoining studio. "The lunatics are on the grass" refers to the notices in parks that say "Keep off the grass", and "The lunatics are in my hall" refers to the photos of politicians and others of dubious repute that appear in newspapers - hence "everyday the paperboy brings more". "And if the band you're in starts playing different tunes" refers to how PF went in a different creative direction after Syd Barrett left the band.

The album Wish You Were Here is even better than Dark Side and would be a good album reaction

Hello; between a June '21 video and this one, you've removed the hair coloring on the tips. Does that have anything to do with what you've been doing on your channel?

It warms my heart to see young people such as yourself discovering and falling in love with the music I grew up listening to. You and others like you are keeping this music alive.

People will still be listening to this album in 100 years time

"Forward!" he cried from the rear. And the front rank died.

Listen to this album, start to finish, and enjoy the ride. And remember, you don't listen to Pink Floyd, you FEEL their music.

Everything under the sun is in tune But the sun is eclipsed by the moon. One never tires...

50 years later, and the sax solo on Us and Them still gives me goosebumps. Thank you, Dick Perry

Oh man. Us and Them is my favorite! Glad you enjoyed it.

Animals would be the easiest album to to, it's only really 3 songs, and has a cohesive theme. I would recommend following along with the lyrics. Wish You Were Here is another great, complete album, a sad and bitter ode to Syd. The Wall is a monster of an album, and might be best reacted to as four parts. It tells the literal story of the character "Pink Floyd", a composite of Syd and Roger, from the loss of Roger's father in WWII when Roger was a baby, to Syd's descent into madness. It's a complete story told in four acts, or four sides of a double album.

45 million copies sold... it will be popular 100 years from now and more

My friend you made me 16 years old again! I’m amazed how Floyd doesn’t age! Thank you for sharing and enjoying this classic ☮️❤️

This album is responsible for so much good music in the last 50 years,the influence of musicians and everyday people.a gift from the gods!…

Here I sit 51 years later, and it's STILL a MASTERPIECE of MUSIC. Just as it was when it was produced in the Spring of 1973.

it's so awesome seeing you journey through some great music... just sayin... its obvious you're having a blast

With, without. And who'd deny it's what the fightings all about?

To millions of people, simply the best album of all time. I've been listening to this for near 50 years now (God, I wish I hadn't thought of that, haha) and I still adore every moment Great reaction as always Pope. You should consider doing this album from the start to The Great Gig in the Sky on the pulse tour. Then maybe the second half separately. There's a track called On The Run in part one, it wouldn't be the best for a standalone reaction, but the ending will blow you away. Don't close your eyes or look away!

Hard to believe that I've been listening to this album for 49 years - along with literally billions of other people. A true blessing, the more I think about it.

One of my favourite cuts of all time, these four songs. They flow like a 20 minute prog song. Great musicianship and vocals. As has been said, it will be played forever. Heck, I’ve been listening to it for 50 years. Thanks, Pope!

Animals or Wish You Were Here are both full albums to listen too.

This is what we listened to through high school and college in the 70’s. This and Led Zeppelin. Imagine that! :)))

Something I'd add, referring to what you said about them being master musicians, is that one of the things I love most about them is that they're probably the least showy of the major bands of the prog era. Nick Mason is a solid, steady drummer, absolutely *not* a virtuoso; Roger Waters similarly is a competent bass player (and acoustic guitarist), no more; Richard Wright was a very fine, highly imaginative keyboard player, who nevertheless eschewed any ostentation in his playing - it was all in service of the song. As to David Gilmour, while he's widely cited as many people's favourite rock guitarist, he rarely if ever goes in for "shredding" or what I'd call fretboard masturbation. His playing is technically precise, and gains its effect from his lyricism and *feel* and his superb facility with bending notes. So a band whose whole is greater than the sum of its parts.

this album was on the billboard top album charts from 1973 to 1988. for 738 weeks in a row. doubtfull that record will ever be broken...

I first noticed how good DSOTM was when I got a long ride as a hitchhiker. I still remember how the flow matched the drive through the mountains so well. It has to be the best road trip album of all time.

Another thing about Floyd's concept albums is that they are cumulative. They build up from one album to the next in a way few other bands match.

the sum is definitely greater than the parts, some albums you just have to listen to start to finish. great job, hoping to see your reaction to dream theater's "wait for sleep" and "learn to live" done back to back.

Hey Pope! One of the best albums of all time! A record breaking masterpiece. 🔴🟠🟡🟢🔵🟣🟤🟩🟦🟪🟫🟨🟧🟥

Can't even guess how many times I have smoked a bowl and sat in front of my huge speakers and listened to this album. It'll take you there! You should try it like we did back then. 👍😎✌

My introduction to Pink Floyd was this album..made such an impression..to say blown away..would be an understatement. A true master piece! So cool to see you and others reactions to this jem. Peace and love .

I love it he's hooked on Floyd. Better than any drug out there

Awesome reaction, that is exactly how you listen to Pink Floyd, headphones on and eye's shut...

Pink floyd "Have a cigar" next bro love the reaction

The most profound album of all time. I like lots of different musical styles, genres, and generations. Top of the enormous pile of music I admire.

This album is the greatest album of all time. Any Colour You Like…how many colors did you see? All of them? Could you smell the colors? How high did you float? I remember the first time I heard this album. I was never the same. ✌🏻❤️

"Any Colour You Like" is my favorite song on the Album and to me is the quintessential Floyd sound.

Decades from now this album will still be played and mentioned as a masterpiece of art. That's how to listen to Pink Floyd.

You don't need booze or drugs to appreciate this album (might help a little though...LOL) just get in a dark room ,put on some quality head phones and sit back and enjoy ...but it has to be played from start to finish,no interuptions.

I just found you, I'm so happy I did, I love the way you love them, I have been listening to them for 50yrs We had the best music😊

Great reaction. "The lunatics are in my hall, the paper holds their folded faces to the floor, and every day the paper boy brings more" Alludes to newspapers being delivered through the door usually by young boys we refer to as "paper boys" (UK doors have letter boxes where the mail and such is delivered directly into the hall and so each morning the mail and newspapers etc lie on the floor in the hallway of our homes for us to pick them up) It is one of those quirks where to a British person the lyrics make obvious sense but to an American who don't have letterboxes in the doors or newspapers delivered in such a way it would be hard to grasp. So of course the lunatics are the people who make up the headlines in the newspapers and their folded faces are their photos in the newspaper that has been folded to deliver through the letterbox.

You went ALL the hell in!!!! MUCH RESPECT!!!! 💯💯💯💯😎😎😎😎 These songs will change your life, man!

l bought this album the day it came out in 1973 and it never gets old. Headphones are a must and it helps to just play it straight through. Great reaction video my man.

The wall always is my favorite but honestly they’re all so good I put them on a tier all their own

The lunatics in my hall,hence the politicians in the newspaper the paper boy brings. Then you read their policies and ideals- lunatic inside your head. Look at what politics does to people,even causes family feuds and ends friendships.

While I LOVE Pink Floyd, I want to tell you that the rest of the Progressive Rock world also has amazing talent and fantastic music. Each of the great Bands have their own sound, and are each the best at what they do. Also, much of their work needs to be heard as full albums, an album is truly a journey in Prog. Yes, The Moody Blues, Jethro Tull, Rush, ELP, Genesis, etc. These are all in the same class as each other, but they are nowhere near the same. Some enjoy certain bands, while others prefer others. You have a long road ahead of you, but it's going to be an amazing journey.

If I may have take ONLY ONE album to the desert island it would be 'The Dark Side of The Moon'. I listen to it over 25 years now and still can't get enough. Very actual album considering current war in Ukraine (Putin is a lunatic on the dark side of the moon right now)... Pope you got to hear this album as a whole (maybe react to the whole masterpiece? ;)).

Just one of those genius albums. What else can be said? Right people, right time. They all pulled it together in the studio.

Yes, you should try an album reaction, and with a little luck it’ll stay up. I imagine most would request, “The Wall.” There are three that would be a nice project to react to and they are, Wish You Were Here, A Momentary Lapse of Reason, and Division Bell. These three have much in common with Dark Side. The Wall is a unique story all it’s own, to say the least.

This came out a half a century ago. And it's still so relevant. This is Roger Waters' masterpiece. This album is one of the best selling LP's of all time selling over 50 MILLION copies. The album itself STILL goes platinum every year as new fans find it and old fans replace old records and CD's. Meant, by Waters, to be a one long 42 minute suite, it had to be broken up into songs so the band could be paid for an "album" & not a single. This album was on the Billboard Hot 100 for 987 weeks (That's 19 YEARS on the charts, JUST INSANE). It was selected for preservation in the United States National Recording Registry by the Library of Congress as being "culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant". It literally is a PERFECT album. #1 of all time in my opinion. The lengths they went to, to pull this off in 1973, with no computers and analog is just astounding!!

I first heard this song aged 10 in the late 70s about 5 years after it was first released and it remains my favourite album ever all these years later. Great to see someone young appreciate just what a masterpiece the DSOTM is.

Glad you went into Any Colour You Like because it's awesome

This is my favorite pink Floyd song and thank you very much sir

With what's happening today between Russia and Ukraine this song is as true today as it was right after Vietnam. War is hell and war is ugly and it is something we as ordinary men (walk right into our deaths willingly) would not choose to do. And today, just as then, but rather on a computer screen instead of paper, the lines still move from side to side while the General sits. I'm sure you can understand why even fifty years later this is their number one selling album.

one of those albums, where if you lay on the couch with headphones on, you may want to drop an anchor.or you may find yourself floating around thruout the house.

You have the best reactions, you really feel the music!

Yeah man that was the janitor that worked at Abbey Road and all the monologue is him telling stuff they would ask him questions and he would give his opinion and they would talk about philosophy and different things and that was so cool man that they put that all in there

I dont know why but Brain Damage is one of their songs that always get me sad

Theres no dark side of the moon. Matter of fact its all dark

I can't listen to this without tearing up!

Dark Side of the Moon. El mejor álbum de toda la historia del rock. Sin lugar a dudas. Y ya pronto cumple 50 años. ¡!casi mi edad¡! Agradezco haber vivido esta época en la que la real y excelente música me ayudaron a crecer.
