Pink Floyd - Animals (Full Album) 1977

My brother died back on May 9th (2022) while he lay in the hospital dying, myself on the other side of the country, I told my mom to do one thing for him. Play Pink Floyd Animals. Love you brother. Miss you.

This is Pink Floyd’s most underrated album. From start to finish, this is a masterpiece

This album came out when I was 17. One of my favorite albums. 2.5 years ago I had open heart surgery. I woke up the next morning after surgery. I was scared, in pain and had this weird feeling of current running through my body. One lung 40% collapsed and right lung at 60%. This was during covid and no visitors and limited nurse visits. I opened up my ipad and played this album through ear buds very low. It brought down my anxiety and made me less concentrated on pain. When I hear these songs now I don't go back into the past and think about 17 anymore but laying in the hospital. Not that bad though as I learned to sleep and relax. Not worried about work, bills, yardwork. I earned a couple months of sleep, music listening, watching movies again which I had lost that desire that I used to love. I'm listening as I type this and feeling mellow.

1977: This album is awesome. 1987: This album is awesome. 1997: This album is awesome. 2007: This album is awesome. 2017: This album is awesome: 2027: This album is awesome.

That is the first piece of music I started playing to my firstborn. Since early days at home. It calmed him down at let him fell asleep. Now he’s 4yo and Animals let him fell asleep when NOTHING WORKS 😂I will make sure Pink Floyd’s music is in his live till the end of my days. Love you Son.

My dad introduced me to this when I was like a lil girl. Now I'm 41 and he passed away on May 25th 2023. I can see my dad sitting there with me and we are listening to this. While he's drinking a beer.😢 Thank you dad for introducing me to your era of music. I still got yr ashes...but it's just not real still. Like yr gone. Ill keep listening to the music you did listen to.

Yesterday was my high school English exam, the teacher allowed us to listen to music while we did it. So I put on The Dark Side Of The Moon on repeat on my phone and did the exam. The next day, I found out I passed with a 100% without making a single mistake. Pink Floyd, I listened to your music whilst I studied and with thanks to you, I am graduating next week. I was afraid that I was going to fail and I was quite nervous, but thankfully you guys gave me the power and the determination to finish strong. Music powers the world, and it certainly powered me. And now I am going to accomplish great things in college. Thank you for getting all of us this far, Pink Floyd until the end of time!

The best Pink Floyd album completely depends on the mood you are in at the time. Each one brings you through your mind in different ways.

0:00 Pigs on the Wing (Part 1) (Waters) 1:25 Dogs (Gilmour/Waters) 18:29 Pigs (Three Different Ones) (Waters) 29:56 Sheep (Waters) 40:15 Pigs on the Wing (Part 2) (Waters)

My future wife and I hitch hiked from Toronto to Montreal with a friend in the late spring/early summer of 1977 to see them perform this album at the Olympic Stadium. Followed it up by playing Wish You Were Here album and encored one side of Dark Side Of The Moon. Amazing show, we became lifelong fans. Most couples have a favourite song, we had a band’s repertoire. This album was the last bit of music she listened to before cancer took her from me and it’s hard to listen to without being overcome with emotion. But it’s great music and I don’t mind tearing up a little every time I give Pink Floyd a listen.

Pigs on the Wing (Part One) 00:01-01:24 Dogs 01:26-18:29 Pigs (Three Different Ones) 18:30-29:56 Sheep 29:57-40:14 Pigs on the Wing (Part Two) 40:15-41:39 1977 Steely Dan- Aja Fleetwood Mac- Rumours Bob Marley- Exodus Earth, Wind & Fire- All 'n' All Billy Joel- The Stranger Al Green- The Belle Album Pink Floyd- Animals David Bowie- Low

This album is a masterpiece of music.

This album is 45 year old today and still an absolute banger.

This album should be revisited every time you realize you’ve reached that next phase of life. The meaning will change and evolve just as your life and the world around you does. That’s what makes this one of the very best music arrangements in the history of all music, let alone art as a whole. Keep growing, but never forget to revisit this album every-once in a while to discover more truth that your younger self simply couldn’t understand.

Im at the clinic recieving chemotherapy for leukemia right now listening to pink floyd. Couldnt be happier. Hey guys, thanks for all the well wishes. A blessing on you and your loved ones!!!

This is one of, if not the, best album of all time. You get yourself a good set of headphones and sit silently and listen to it and you're not going to shut it off. It's a piece of artwork.

My husband introduced this album to me when I was 15. 1979. My husband has sinced passed 😪 I will love him tiil the day that I die. And I will love the floyd till the day I die. Even with David Gilmour.

Anyone who thinks this is the best album ever made by any band period - I'm pretty sure we could be friends.

It is my sincere hope that 500 or even 1000 years from now and beyond that people are still listening to and appreciating the music and the genius that is Pink Floyd.

This, quite literally, soothes my soul.

Is it just me, or is dogs one of the most brilliant tracks of all time!

Not only were all four members of Pink Floyd phenomenal musicians and songwriters, they were fortunate enough to have some great engineering and production folks to assist them in delivering music that will never die. I cannot recall just how many times I spent in my bedroom with my headphones on just blissfully absorbed by Animals. Didn’t need shrooms or acid to trip to this masterpiece.

Without a doubt, my favorite Floyd LP. If I could only have 10 LPs in my collection, this is one of them.

Спасибо за прекрасный альбом,уважаемые Pink Floyd !

One of the best albums ever made. Timeless

Madison Square Garden 1977. I was 17 years old coming into NYC from NJ. Buses, subway, walking the GW bridge. Pink Floyd at it's pinnacle. What a night. Wow. In my memory bank forever

My mom played this growing up🤘. Such jams and I miss her so much!! 🌹RIP Mommy🌹

"And it's too late to lose the weight you used to need to throw around" Music and lyrics are genius.

The 70s have gotta be the greatest decade for music. Just the explosion of genres and talent was incredible. And what an amazing time to grow up in.🤘✨

Я из России. Люблю Pink Floyd. Я из Russia Moscow. Почти 50 лет наслаждаюсь их творчеством. Это гениально. Это не как быть бараном - а как не быть бараном.

I have been listening to Pink Floyd for over 40 years, cant tell you how much there music has influenced me and changed my life for the better. These guys were way ahead of the times from when they began. Sid Barrett was way ahead of his time and was a masterful song writer which shaped Pink Floyd and made them what they became. Sid Barrett and Pink Floyd will live on forever.

12 años tenía y ya oía esas rolas, hoy qué tengo 59 años las oigo nuevamente y vuelvo a sentirme de 12. Como pasó el tiempo!!!!

One of the best gigs I ever saw, was Pink Floyd doing “Animals” and “Wish You Were Here” in their entirety, at Stafford in 1977! That blew my 17 year old mind, that did!!

My favorite Pink Floyd album. The only one of their great albums that I never get tired of listening to. Musicianship is phenomenal.

J'avais 18 ans quand j'ai écouté cet album maintenant j'en ai 63 et c'est toujours un grand plaisir de l'ecouter

Was my friend’s favorite album of Pink Floyd, and she died of cancer. It will never fail at bringing her back to me every play-through.

Someday, maybe, our great grandchildren will listen to this in music class. Cheers to that generation. 🥃

This album is so underrated. As a Pink Floyd fan of over 40 years, I still feel this is one of their greatest albums!

This is the best album of pink Floyd by far! I could listen day or night no matter my mood!!

Мне 62 года,до сих пор прусь от этой музыки, спасибо 20веку давшему нам таких классных людей!!!!

2022 and this album is still ahead of the current timeline of music.

My first Floyd album.22 again. Peace and love to all my brothers and sisters listening 😁✌️

This album teleports me back to old times. I can visualise my physics classroom, philosophical debates, talks about the mountains... Definitely nostalgic.

Literally my favourite album in earth, dont care what decade it is

My favorite Pink Floyd album, My favorite keyboardist, Richard Wright.. 🎹🎹🎹

Thank God for an older brother and an awesome Dad who were always on the cusp of great music...I grew up listening to phenomenal music because of them ... I was always out of sync with kids my age..because I had been exposed to unbelievable music thanks to my big brother and Dad...thank you! And to this day some sadly do not get it....

Great album, great music and great lyrics. I can never play just one song. I have to listen to the entire album. Also it reminds me of Animal Farm. I can still see " all animals are equal, but some are more equal than others". And it is still a fact.

Note that is the album cover picture above of a beloved record: I traveled to England in High school days from NJ in the late 70's with our school band. My best friend and I flat adored this album and talked about it literally daily. On the very first afternoon there w our host families my friend somehow tracked down my hosts phone number (How??) and called me and we VERY VERY spontaneously grabbed a train to London to try to catch Bob Marley in concert. This was an insanely wild idea. I was almost NEVER spontaneous. EVERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR! NOTE: The train happened to run the same path from which the album cover picture was shot (we had NO IDEA). Incredibly, we came around the bend at EXACTLY the same time of day, same beautiful sky, same angle and I tell you we went out of our minds with astonishment and amazement I swear it seemed like God reached down to us to have this experience-I'm not kidding. It was two hippy American teenagers jumping around in ecstasy on a commuter train surrounded by frumpy 50 year old female commuters staring in utter confusion at how we could be laughing hysterically while pointing at the Batter Sea power station! They had looked at that monstrosity every day of their lives! I know what it is to feel joy and sometimes it comes from taking risks your friends encourage you to take! I Love you Pam! I really do! BTW- Bob Marley was sold out so we drank beer with hilarious English guys in a pub in London, then somehow got fish and chips (also utter ecstasy!) in the suburbs at midnight then got home and slept a deep sleep of satisfaction in our totally OK English hosts beds. Bless you! Our English hosts-you made this possible! I adore you.

My father used to play this for me when I was very young. I'm 51 now and all of my children love it.

It is amazing just how many elders still listen to this. I'm 18 and listened to pink floyd a month ago for the first time (no, it's not a joke), and I love it. These songs go beyond generations

Legendary album My favorite Pink Floyd album. Animals

The entire album is my comfort blanket 😌

When my family were to take a vacation to Disneyland from our home in Medford Oregon we all were told we could bring one 8 track to listen to in turn. My dad took Neil Diamond, Mom took the soundtrack to American Graffiti, my brother took The Osmonds brothers 😒 my little sister didnt own an 8 track lol...I in the 6th grade PINK FLOYD ANIMALS and they just didn't get it... but I did and now at 59 years old still rock it ALL the time. Total top 10 classic and so profound that I can't do it justice with my own words. Just an unreal masterpiece of music!

I was 10 when my father used to play this album at max volume on christmas I really like the memories, my old man had some good tastes

Man, 45 years later this is still flawless

This album will always stand the test of time and still be on the top of the list when ever i get stressed and need to de compress this is my go to

Here we are. It's 2021. This album is 44 years old. It's more relevant than ever. Meek and obedient you follow the leader down well-trodden corridors into the valley of steel

I saw this concert at Milwaukee County Stadium June 1977. Owsley Orange microdot enhanced. I was 17. Epic!

Pink Floyd’s best album ever👍👍💗💗

Sheep - the people Dogs - the police Pigs - the capitalists one of the best albums ever made, i am loving Rodger Waters ♥

FINALLY, a version with no ads. Mucho appreciation!!!!

Im 15 and pink Floyds is by far the best music I've heard my whole life and id say it'll stay that way forever

Мне было 15 сечас 62 досех пор я вас слушаю спасиба вам вы супер

I tripped on mushrooms listening to this album and I honestly think of the world a different way because of what he says and its all true. It's sad that humanity is this

I bought Pink floyd's 'Animals' when it came out with my birthday money. Was not that taken by it then. I was probably too young to take onboard what they had to say. But now I can't get enough of it. I still have my original from when I was a kid and keep on playing it. Just shows me the state of things in this ever despicable capatalist froudulent world that has been created so successfully to strip us of everything we have ever worked for or tried to achieve in out lives. Right, I'm off now back to the ward to take my night meds so I don't have to worry anymore...

Bed, headphones, stoned. I wish I was a teenager again 😎

For me the song that hits me the most is Dogs. Especially the lines "it's gonna get harder as you get older" "just another sad old man, all alone dying of cancer" and "I gotta admit that I'm a little bit confused Sometimes it seems to me as if I'm just being used"

This is maybe my favorite Pink Floyd album. It’s such an odyssey, so experimental yet pleasing. So many incredible melodies that come as a complete surprise. Definitely their most underrated album.

My absolute favorite Floyd album of the entire catalog. Rick Wright's keyboard contributions on this album is just outstanding, Nick's groove holds the entire thing together, not to forget about David Gilmour's phenomenal guitar and bass playing on not just Dogs and Pigs 3 diff ones, but the entire album. I was not born in the 20th century, but I am sure glad my dad showed me this music. I'm reading Animal Farm currently, and now I'm beginning to understand this album.

The perfect example of a exemplary album. It's flawless and the solos flow like water. Perfection

That's i called album, masterpiece,big love from Ukraine

The best album in 100 years❤

Anyone who knows this album as well as I do- knows every sound of every song- every drum beat and every note of every solo- but is still thrilled to hear them every time we hear them. A true underrated masterpiece from start to finish and just a pure joy to experience.

discovered this album about 3 months ago - now in my favourites of all time

What makes Pink Floyd so amazing is that you cannot name one album that is their finest achievement. I keep switching among Dark Side of the Moon, Meddle, Wish You Were Here, The Wall and Animals.

Lyrics: Pigs on the Wing (Part One): If you didn't care what happened to me, And I didn't care for you We would zig zag our way through the boredom and pain Occasionally glancing up through the rain Wondering which of the buggers to blame And watching for pigs on the wing Dogs: You got to be crazy, gotta have a real need Gotta sleep on your toes, and when you're on the street You got to be able to pick out the easy meat with your eyes closed And then moving in silently, down wind and out of sight You got to strike when the moment is right without thinking And after a while, you can work on points for style Like the club tie, and the firm handshake A certain look in the eye, and an easy smile You have to be trusted by the people that you lie to So that when they turn their backs on you You'll get the chance to put the knife in You gotta keep one eye looking over your shoulder You know it's going to get harder, and harder, and harder as you get older Yeah, and in the end you'll pack up, fly down south Hide your head in the sand Just another sad old man All alone and dying of cancer And when you lose control, you'll reap the harvest you have sown And as the fear grows, the bad blood slows and turns to stone And it's too late to lose the weight you used to need to throw around So have a good drown, as you go down, all alone Dragged down by the stone I gotta admit that I'm a little bit confused Sometimes it seems to me as if I'm just being used Gotta stay awake, gotta try and shake off this creeping malaise If I don't stand my own ground, how can I find my way out of this maze? Deaf, dumb, and blind, you just keep on pretending That everyone's expendable and no-one has a real friend And it seems to you the thing to do would be to isolate the winner And everything's done under the sun And you believe at heart, everyone's a killer Who was born in a house full of pain Who was trained not to spit in the fan Who was told what to do by the man Who was broken by trained personnel Who was fitted with collar and chain Who was given a pat on the back Who was breaking away from the pack Who was only a stranger at home Who was ground down in the end Who was found dead on the phone Who was dragged down by the stone Pigs (Three Different Ones): Big man, pig man Ha ha, charade you are You well heeled big wheel Ha ha, charade you are And when your hand is on your heart You're nearly a good laugh Almost a joker With your head down in the pig bin Saying "keep on digging" Pig stain on your fat chin What do you hope to find? When you're down in the pig mine You're nearly a laugh You're nearly a laugh But you're really a cry Bus stop rat bag Ha ha, charade you are You fucked up old hag Ha ha, charade you are You radiate cold shafts of broken glass You're nearly a good laugh Almost worth a quick grin You like the feel of steel You're hot stuff with a hat pin And good fun with a hand gun You're nearly a laugh You're nearly a laugh But you're really a cry Hey you Whitehouse Ha ha, charade you are You house proud town mouse Ha ha, charade you are You're trying to keep our feelings off the street You're nearly a real treat All tight lips and cold feet And do you feel abused? …! …! …! …! You! gotta stem the evil tide And keep it all on the inside Mary you're nearly a treat Mary you're nearly a treat But you're really a cry Sheep: Harmlessly passing your time in the grassland away Only dimly aware of a certain unease in the air You better watch out There may be dogs about I've looked over Jordan and I have seen Things are not what they seem What do you get for pretending the danger's not real Meek and obedient you follow the leader Down well trodden corridors into the valley of steel What a surprise A look of terminal shock in your eyes Now things are really what they seem No, this is no bad dream The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not want He makes me down to lie Through pastures green he leadeth me the silent waters by With bright knives he releaseth my soul He maketh me to hang on hooks in high places He converteth me to lamb cutlets For lo, he hath great power and great hunger When cometh the day we lowly ones Through quiet reflection and great dedication Master the art of karate Lo, we shall rise up And then we'll make the bugger's eyes water Bleating and babbling we fell on his neck with a scream Wave upon wave of demented avengers March cheerfully out of obscurity into the dream Have you heard the news? The dogs are dead! You better stay home And do as you're told Get out of the road if you want to grow old Pigs on the Wing (Part Two): You know that I care what happens to you And I know that you care for me too So I don't feel alone Or the weight of the stone Now that I've found somewhere safe To bury my bone And any fool knows a dog needs a home A shelter from pigs on the wing You’re welcome!

one of the greatest albums of all time... surely? The lyrics are a psychological mindf*** like no other and the music takes you into another dimension entirely.

Brilliant, perfect music.

I can't describe how much I love this album

Simply a masterpiece. No one has the balls to make art like this anymore.

Just a complete kick in the gut every time I hear it. *Such* a good album, but goddamn dark AF. Truly a masterwork.

I've listened to this band for nearly 40 years.. It's still my favourite.

My favorite all time album! What a masterpiece. ❤

One of my all time favorite albums. I just saw Roger last month in Atlanta. We had floor seats, man. Floor seats. It was an honor to experience that.

This could have been released today and it _still_ would sound futuristic.

The guitar chord series at the end of Dogs still makes the hair on my arms stand up. This is a brilliant album. The lyrics are insightful and powerful and the music fantastic. An all-time favorite.

What a ride. Absolutely magical record.

If I had to put my money on it, I would say this is Floyd's top of the crop right here.

Esse álbum é simples fantástico, comecei a escutalo quando tinha 16 anos, hoje aos 62 anos viajo no som e escuto constantemente.

My main motivation for listening to this album was that part in “Sheep” where the guitar becomes more bright and upbeat, and I loved it. This was an amazing album

If I'm ever stuck on a deserted island with only one album, THIS IS IT!😎❤️

Its blues, its jazz, its symphony and progressive rock rolled into one. In a class by itself.

A masterpiece. Just ages better and better

An absolutely legendary album. As expected by the greatest band ever, Pink Floyd. This, and most of their other albums are pure gold.

Classic album. One of if not the best of Floyd, but alas there are so many great Pink Floyd albums and songs how can anyone choose...

Magnificent Album 🐶❤️

OMG, since I first heard it in 1977, and the 1000 times that I’ve cranked it since, this album is a 5-star, 5-hour credit, graduate level course in Dark Contemporary Sociology. And Contemporary Political Science. It was beautifully relevant then, and even more so now. They knew where we were headed.

One of the greatest albums of all time...don't listen if you're suicidal!!! Wait till the morning...

Im 12 years old and im obsessed with pink floyd!

Um dos melhores albuns de todos os tempos , se nao o melhor, nunca me canso de escutar essa album por inteiro, Pink Floyd Lenda
