The Dark Side of the Moon is Pink Floyd's eighth studio album, released on 1 March 1973 through Harvest Records. It is one of the best-selling albums of all time, and at the time of writing, it's only surpassed by Michael Jackson's Thriller, AC/DC's Back in Black, and the soundtrack album to The Bodyguard in sales. The album was Pink Floyd's Breakthrough Hit and made them a mainstream name around the world.Within the year of its release alone, it topped the charts in the US, Austria, and Canada, and peaked at No. 2 on the UK Albums chart, remaining on the Billboard charts for 741 consecutive weeks until it finally fell off the chart in 1988 and a subsequent revision to the charts prevented legacy albums from being counted anymore. However, once Billboard created the Top Pop Catalog Albums chart in May 1991 to make up for that change, the album swiftly shot into there, and remains on them to this day. Another chart revision in 2009 allowed the album to return to the Billboard 200 once more, and it has since accumulated a total of 958 non-consecutive weeks on the chart as of 2021, far and away the most chart weeks of any album in Billboard history.Since its release, it has been certified double-diamond in Canada, 16-fold platinum in New Zealand, 15-fold platinum in the US, 14-fold platinum in the UK and Australia, quintuple-platinum in Italynote it sold enough there to be potentially certified even higher, but the FIMI only started counting the album's numbers in 2009, double-platinum in Argentina and Germany, platinum in France, Poland, and Russia, and gold in Belgium and the Czech Republic. However, this sudden super-stardom also sowed the seeds to the band's (especially Roger Waters') later Artist Disillusionment, which became very apparent on the band's later albums, particularly its follow-up.In 2013, the album was adapted into a BBC radio play titled Darkside by Czech playwright Tom Stoppard of Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead fame. He describes this play as a "philosophical comedy". The teaser can be viewed here.The album was supported by two singles: "Money" and the double-A-side "Time/Us and Them".Preceded by Obscured by Clouds. Proceeded by Wish You Were Here. | |

Long-Runners | |
| The Dark Side of the Moon (Music) / int_21c05222 | comment |
Long Runner: 741 consecutive weeks — 14 straight years — on the Billboard 200 album chart. To put that in perspective, Dark Side was still on the charts when Pink Floyd released A Momentary Lapse of Reason in 1987. When Billboard began allowing recurrent albums back into the chart in 2009, the album returned to the chart within two weeks and passed 950 non-consecutive weeks in May 2020. No album has ever come close to being on the chart for that long in the history of the Billboard 200. It's estimated that the album still sells around 8,000 copies per week, in spite of (and because of) digital streaming. | |

Minimalistic Cover Art | |
| The Dark Side of the Moon (Music) / int_2e22f7d4 | comment |
Minimalistic Cover Art: Keyboard player Richard Wright asked for something "smarter, neater – more classy".note He also went on record saying that he wanted something "simple and bold. And dramatic". The end result is a stark image of a prism refracting a beam of light into a six-stripe rainbow against a black backdrop, all rendered in stark colors with as little detail as possible. The rainbow continued through the inner part of the gatefold, where the green line zigzagged in mimicry of the heartbeat heard throughout the album; the back cover featured another prism returning the beam of light to its origin point on the front cover. | |

Uncommon Time: "Money" is in 7/4, save for the guitar solo and chorus, which is in 4/4 because David Gilmour kept getting thrown off by the weirder time signature of the rest of the song. | |

Humans Are Bastards | |
| The Dark Side of the Moon (Music) / int_3d4d3dc9 | comment |
Humans Are Bastards: Some of the quotes that appear and reappear on the album feature people's answers to the questions "When was the last time you were violent?" and "Were you in the right?". Everyone quoted seems to firmly believe they were in the right except for Henry McCullough, who states that "I don't know; I was really drunk at the time." "Us and Them" is a plea against human conflicts for what are generally stupid reasons and makes the observation that the machinations of the powerful hit the small people the hardest. | |

Bookends: Opens and closes with heartbeats. Both sides have an instrumental track between two vocal performances in the middle of the album. Side one opens and closes with a One-Woman Wail. Vocally, it begins and ends with something to the tune of "Breathe". The second interview sample in "Speak to Me" and the interview sample at the end of "Eclipse" are both by Gerry O'Driscoll, the doorman for Abbey Road Studios. | |

Birth-Death Juxtaposition | |
| The Dark Side of the Moon (Music) / int_6b7e3069 | comment |
Birth-Death Juxtaposition: A common interpretation of the first and last tracks. "Speak to Me" opens with a heartbeat and ends with the sound of vocalist Clare Torry wailing, which could represent a baby's birth and a mother's labour pains. "Eclipse" ends with the sound of a heartbeat gradually fading into silence, and its last line is about the sun being eclipsed by the moon, which could represent death. Alternatively, the end of the first side, "The Great Gig in the Sky", also represents death. Clare Torry's vocals from this song were sampled for "Speak to Me". | |

Real Life Writes the Plot | |
| The Dark Side of the Moon (Music) / int_786bf97f | comment |
Real Life Writes the Plot: The line "And if the band you're in starts playing different tunes" was inspired by the fact that Syd Barrett sometimes played a completely different song than the rest of the band during a concert; it was mostly due to his declining mental state, which was the main reason for his removal from the band. | |

Siamese Twin Songs | |
| The Dark Side of the Moon (Music) / int_7d276626 | comment |
Siamese Twin Songs: "Speak to Me" and "Breathe", inseparable enough that they are sometimes issued as one track on certain CD pressings note "On the Run", the track immediately following those two, is sometimes included with the mix. "Us and Them" and "Any Colour You Like" are connected by a delayed part of the last word on the former track. The delay continues into the beginning of the track, and is actually faintly heard as the synth begins. However, unlike the other three, only the former is played on the radio. "Brain Damage" and "Eclipse" are so inseparable they're often collectively mistaken for the title track of the album, which doesn't exist. In general, it can be said that there are only two distinct tracks on the entire album: "Side A" and "Side B." | |

Breather Episode | |
| The Dark Side of the Moon (Music) / int_80a247a9 | comment |
Breather Episode: "Breathe". The more upbeat "Money" (although the lyrics are still satirical to say the least), is placed right after the rather sad "The Great Gig in the Sky". The instrumental "Any Colour You Like," after the weightiness of the somewhat depressing anti-war "Us and Them" and before the final coda of "Brain Damage" and "Eclipse." | |

Spoken Word in Music | |
| The Dark Side of the Moon (Music) / int_8c00118f | comment |
Spoken Word in Music: Some songs include samples of people talking, who were answering questions such as "When was the last time you were violent?", "Were you in the right?", "Are you afraid of death?", or "What is the dark side of the moon?". Among the people interviewed were: Henry McCullough of Wings (who supplied the "I don't know, I was really drunk at the time" heard in the segue between "Money" and "Us and Them"; Paul McCartney and his then-wife Linda were also interviewed, but their answers were considered generic and/or trying too hard to be funny, so they were left unused); Roadie Chris Adamson (the "I've been mad for fucking years" monologue at the start of the album); The band's road manager Peter Watts (whose crazed laughter is heard in "Brain Damage" and "Speak to Me"); Watts' wife Patricia (who says "I never said I was frightened of dying" in "The Great Gig in the Sky" and describes a violent encounter in the segue between "Money" and "Us and Them": "that geezer was cruisin' for a bruisin'"); Roger "The Hat" Manifold (who appears in "Us and Them" and says "live for today, gone tomorrow, that's me. HAHAHAHAHAHAHA" in "On the Run"); and Abbey Road Studios' doorman Gerry O'Driscoll, responsible for some of the more iconic quotes (the second one in "Speak to Me" about being mad, the one at the bottom of the page that ends the album, and the discussion about death in "The Great Gig in the Sky"). | |

Anaphora: Almost every line in "Eclipse", the closing track, begins with the phrase "all that you" (with or without an "and" at the start), expanding upon (and consequently bookending) the line "and all you touch and all you see" in "Breathe" near the start of the album. | |

One-Woman Wail: "The Great Gig in the Sky" features one long wail over organ and pedal steel guitar. Clare Torry couldn't quite summon the right emotions for her wordless vocalizations on "Great Gig in the Sky" until she struck on the idea that, rather than doing vocals, she should treat her voice as if it were another instrument. | |

Shout-Out | |
| The Dark Side of the Moon (Music) / int_c75df49a | comment |
Shout-Out: The album cover was directly inspired by Alex Steinweiss' artwork for Rudolf Serkin and the New York Philharmonic's 1941 performance of Ludwig van Beethoven's "Emperor Concerto", which features a white piano similarly refracting a beam of light into a six-stripe rainbow (Steinweiss himself was the inventor of the illustrated album cover). There's a snippet of the Hollyridge Strings performing The Beatles' "Ticket to Ride" in the fade-out of "Eclipse". Richard Wright based the chord progression of "Breathe" on the opening to "So What", the first track on Miles Davis' Kind of Blue, taking particular inspiration from Bill Evans' piano work. | |

Freedom from Choice | |
| The Dark Side of the Moon (Music) / int_ccf7fe9c | comment |
Freedom from Choice: The title of "Any Colour You Like". Waters named that song after Londoners who would come to his hometown of Cambridge and attempt to sell various items from their trucks, specifically one who attempted to hawk sets of china by saying "Any colour you like, they're all blue". The title also harkens back to a quote from United States automotive maker Henry Ford, who said in 1909 about the Ford Model T note Generally considered the first affordable automotive, thanks to the invention of the assembly line process, "Any customer can have a car painted any colour that he wants so long as it is black."note The UK spelling of "color" is indeed present in Ford's writings despite him being American. | |

Sanity Slippage Song | |
| The Dark Side of the Moon (Music) / int_ee9bf817 | comment |
Sanity Slippage Song: "Brain Damage", which is at least partially about Pink Floyd founder Syd Barrett, who's famous for his own Sanity Slippage that led to his departure from the band. It is also at least partially about Roger Waters' fear of falling victim to mental illness. He had touched on the theme before ("If" from Atom Heart Mother) and returned to it later in several songs on The Wall and The Pros and Cons of Hitch Hiking. | |

Fading into the Next Song | |
| The Dark Side of the Moon (Music) / int_f3cf057b | comment |
Fading into the Next Song: The transition between all songs is seamless, except for the side flip between "The Great Gig in the Sky" and "Money" on the vinyl pressing, naturally. The final chord of "The Great Gig" is still barely audible under the first sound effect of "Money", and this transition was boosted when the album was remastered for CD. In fact, because of its introductory nature, early CD pressings place "Speak to Me" and "Breathe" on the same track. | |

Dark Reprise: the final verse of "Time". Is somewhat compared to the relaxed, airy "Breathe", "Time"'s verse feels more tired and worn-out, which fits the lyrics. Inverted with its so-called "second reprise", "Any Colour You Like", a groovier beat. | |

Alternate Album Cover: For the 20th Anniversary release in 1993, the iconic cover image was replaced by a photograph of an actual prism separating light◊. For the 30th Anniversary in 2003, the image was decidedly less minimalist: It was a photograph of a stained glass window◊ that replicated the album cover, shot at night with trees visible outside, and a small smattering of light from the camera setup. The 2021 repress of the 2003 SACD, meanwhile, uses a new drawing that depicts the prism as a pyramid floating in a starfield. | |
