Let those who are without sin deny that track 5 is the life-changer.

What AM I supposed to notice here?

[–] electricyarn 4 points 2 months ago

The first two tracks are a) and b) parts of the same track on the vinyl.

Speak to me and breathe are often seen as one track. So I'm guessing time was the track they referenced here?

Time is by far my favorite. Took listening to it as an adult for it to click, as a kid you were there for the music. Some young adults get it the first time though, and the look on their faces when they do...

The biggest oof.

I was going to say Time plus Great Gig in the Sky has to be one of the best consecutive sets of all time.

I feel like the whole album is just 4 tracks.

  1. "Speak to Me" &"Breathe (In the Air)" ~~2. "On the Run"~~
  2. "Time" & "The Great Gig in the Sky"
  3. "Money"
  4. "Us and Them" & "Any Colour You Like" & "Brain Damage" & "Eclipse"

It’s the only way I listen to it.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 months ago (2 children)

So just listen to the album. Got it.

[–] danc4498 1 points 2 months ago

Yes, but skipping On the Run every time. Unless I’m watching Wizard of Oz or Paul Blart Mall Cop 2.

9 & 10 for this guy

Nah, the whole album is excellent, but track 3 was what put me on a path beyond my parents' classic rock collection and towards getting into things like Cut Chemist and J Dilla

The Great Gig is gorgeous, but On the Run changed my understanding of what music could be

You ever seen the video of David Gilmore making that track with his effects thingy? It was pretty neat
