7/10. I really thought “Dark Side of the Moon” was much later than 1973.

No that one I knew! Bonus Question: what classic movie can you use it as an alternative soundtrack? Is it [a]Casablanca, [b] Gone With The Wind or [c] the Wizard Of Oz?
Tresix cperrynaples 4 days ago
C. The video is on YouTube, but I don’t see why there’s the connection. The scenes on camera don’t seem to have any connection to the music or lyrics.

I actually tried this once, about 15 years ago (I did it with CDs of both) and yes, it actually worked, but the novelty wore off around the time she meets The Scarecrow. To Tresix: I think I read some guys were just sitting around imbibing in 'the herb' and for some reason gave it a try, let people know, and the idea of even doing it became one of those urban legends for stoner types. I just tried it for fun, it looks and sounds kinda trippy together is all.

Well I think it's funny that when Scarecrow appears, you hear "the lunatic is on the grass"!
