Side 1 has the best sequence of songs, but I like side 2 almost equally.

Side two, I often skip side one because it's a bit boring in my not-too-humble-this-time opinion.

I never owned Dark Side Of The Moon before I purchased a CD copy so I actually wasn't sure what's on side one and side two. But looking at that little list of songs I now get some idea why it achieved iconic statuts so quickly.

It's really a toss-up.  I'll vote for side 2 since it's lagging behind.

That's a good point......I should have listed the track titles by LP side.
 
Side 1
1. Speak to Me
2. Breathe
3. On the Run
4. Time
5. The Great Gig In the Sky
Side 2
1. Money
2. Us and Them
3. Any Colour You Like
4. Brain Damage
5. Eclipse

I'd say Side 2. I just really like Any Colour, and Money, and how the album ends. Very tough decision though.

This for me too.

Side Two has my favourite track on it "Us And Them" but i do think side One is a little stronger.

Side one no doubt just because of the GGITS and Time. Fantastic and powerful emotions inside.

Side 1 simply 'cos Time is on it :) 

I don't see why so many people call Money a 'pop' song though.
Best pop song I ever heard predominantly in 7/8 and with a saxophone solo.....

Side 2 for me.

Money, Us and them, any colour you like and of course, Brain Damage/Eclipse are so touching.


One of my best achievements in life was to find this picture :D
