– “Dark side is a beacon of light, reflective of a mad mad world. “And you are young and life is long and there is time to kill today And then one day you find ten years have got behind you No one told you when to run, you missed the starting gun And you run and you run to catch up with the sun, but it’s sinking Racing around to come up behind you again The sun is the same in a relative way, but you’re older Shorter of breath and one day closer to death”Īs I was writing this review and listening to the album I got on email and pinged some of my friends and asked them, “ What does The Dark Side of the Moon album mean to you?“Į.G. Or the bitter description of human mortality in “ Time” with a dire warning to not waste your finite time in this world. The segregation of “ Us and Them” whose line “ Forward he cried from the rear” describe how “ Them” always manipulate “ Us” (in reference to how the Generals during war order the peons on the front lines to go get themselves killed). Songwriter Roger Waters himself claimed “ that’s what the record is about really – conflict, our failure to connect with one another.” Whatever one’s interpretation of the album is, the genius of Waters’ lyrics are timeless. I encourage you to read it while you listen to gain a deeper appreciation of the album. Vincent Amendolare’s site analyzes the album track by track and offers a very good interpretation of the work. Rolling Stone Magazine in its original review of The Dark Side Of The Moon attempted to clarify the meaning of the album by stating, “it seems to deal primarily with the fleetingness and depravity of human life”. Before taxes, it cost $94.15 from Amazon.ca to get it delivered to my door. The Dark Side of the Moon was the 10th album (7th studio album) released by Pink Floyd back in March 17 1973. 14,073 days later we get a 6 disc (CD/DVD/Blu-Ray combo) set full of goodies to make any Pink Floyd fan drool. Buy it and experience the apex of rock music once more. Let me just get the obvious conclusion out of the way: The definitive release of the best album ever made. A CD printing plant in Germany dedicated only to produce this CD 24 hours a day 7 days a week. 1500 weeks (or roughly 29 years) on the Billboard charts.
