Darn, I am not getting that one. :see_no_evil_monkey:

People would get high and listen to Darkside of the Moon while watching The Wizard of Oz. In this case, the characters from that movie are zoned out listening to Darkside…

Hope that helps.

Thanks, that help.
I have never heard that people watching Wizard of Oz while listening to the Dark Side of the Moon, while they are high. Seems to be an US thing.

Actually, someone(s) discovered if you start the album at a specific point when started Wizard of OZ, the songs align with the movie scenes. This became a *thing * and likely was most enjoyable with altered brain chemistry…akin to In A Gadda Da Vidi (sp?).

And do you know what In-A-Gadda-Da-Vita refers to? AI searches not allowed for this one.

As a drummer, it was one of my favorite albums when I was a kid. “Mom… I HAVE to have this album for the drum solo,” which now seems trite.

The three most often played songsin the history of music…happy birthday to you, auld lang syne, and inna gadda da vita

Hmmmm… it could be suggested that alcohol is a common denominator in all three.

(It was a famous line from Cheech & Chong.)

I’m glad it wasn’t just me , my brain chemistry is set to normal with occasional alcohol

In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida was originally “in the Garden of Eden” but it was misheard and the band just went with it. I wish that more bands did the same!!! Jimi Hendrix would have sung “‘Scuse me, while I kiss this guy!” :joy::joy::joy: My dad and I had great had great philosophical conversations about the Alan Parsons lyrics “Nothings good that uses bad…”. A brilliant lyric for the album (TOAFC). Imagine how disappointed I was to later learn that the lyrics were “Nothings good, the news is bad…”

I guess an advert fits here. As seen on TV during NFL wild card round on CBS.

Not sure I’d put an 80k player on the floor, the cables seem a tad long, and slightly problematic speaker placement :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes:
