Damn Animals with Pink Floyd is overrated!

Smacks of immaturity, that comment. You might be a 100 years old for all I know

Anyway punk was a musical rebellion that morphed very quickly and most of it was not moron music for the masses. Stop being so self righteous.

Look man, nobody here is out to get you and nobody really cares what you think about Dark Side of the Moon. Your opinion is as insignificant as mine. The point I want to make is it doesn't matter if you like the album or not, it's place in prog history has been established. Contest it all you want, disagree all you want, argue all you want. The album is a masterpiece lyrically and musically. It's kind of like me trying to argue that Beethoven or Mozart weren't geniuses just because I happen to like other composers' music better. We all have our own preferences but this doesn't mean we should dump all over something just because we don't think it's up to snuff with our own favorites.

Accept or don't. I don't really care. I said what I had to say.

Well, they are not quite so open that you can choose to intentionally look through a pedantic microscope and twist a worldly-wise sort of observation wildly out of context by trying to scientifically evaluate it.  As I said earlier, the entire concept of Time, and not just the part of time flying out of reach as one gets older, would fall flat if you strictly applied the rules of physics to it.  The sun does not actually set on you nor does it rise again.  But people still refer to sunrise and sunset in everyday conversations maybe because watching its movements through the day, the rise and fall, has a rhythm of its own.  As Iain has also observed, Waters has simply spoken in language that everyone can understand.  It's nobody's case that that is all that is required to understand the human condition.  Yet somebody's got to write a bloody album that doesn't have to revolve around wittier-than-thou wordplay and extremely involved concepts, otherwise the day may well come when only the artist and his sympathetic neighbours sit around the stereo to listen to the album with nobody else interested.  What you are trying to do is to hold the lyrical simplicity of DSOTM itself against it, when it is an intentional choice and one that i believe has an important place in the world of arts.  Maybe that explains why the world believed them all too easily when the punks accused prog of being pretentious.

First of all, you utterly failed to grasp the simple lyrics to the song "Time". Your little foray into science missed the point:

Each day is in fact slightly longer than the last! so as you get older the days are actually getting longer (not shorter). The child's perception of time is seemingly different than of an older adult! But this perception difference is very hard to quantify as it is clearly different depending on the context that the brain is using when parsing the effect of actual time against perceived time!!!

This aint no payin' gig, junior. You get what you get.

Oh, I never meant to say hardcore Floyd fans would not rate WYWH as their favourite.  Just that a lot of them would also choose some other album from their discography while casual fans seem to rate either WYWH or DSOTM as their favourite.  

That's it!
