Two classics in sync

[Habitual Perfectionist]

I was browsing sites at random when I came across this rather intriguing piece. It seems that the classic Pink Floyd Album Dark Side of the Moon can be synchronised with the movie classic The Wizard of Oz to give some fantabulous results. Here's how to do it.





1. Buy or rent the movie The Wizard of Oz.

2. Buy or rent the CD of Pink Floyd's Dark Side of the Moon.

3. Put the CD in the player and press pause at the beginning of track 1.

4. Put the movie in your player and begin to play.

5. Turn off the sound on your television. Turn up the volume on your CD player.

6. When the MGM lion roars for the third time, unpause the CD.

7. If the credit "Produced by Mervyl Leroy" appears onscreen at the transition between "Speak to Me" and "Breathe," then you are correctly synched.

8. Sit back and enjoy!



Tips:



1. Use a CD, not an album. Stopping to flip the album would mess up the synchronicity.

2. Try to think of this as one long, bizarre music video. Don't expect too much and you might be amazed.

3. End the movie after one play-through of the CD. Avoid the "looping" method to replay the CD, as anything after this point is minor and far-fetched.



Synchronicities to look for:



1. When Dorothy runs away from home, the line "No one told you when to run" from the song "Time" is heard.

2. The tornado scene begins just as "The Great Gig in the Sky" starts playing. The song lasts for the entire duration of the storm.

3. The female singer begins moaning, her voice rising and falling in time with the mood of the tornado scene.

4. When "Great Gig" ends, the first side of the album also ends (not valid when using a CD).

5. "Money" begins as Dorothy opens the door and sees Oz. The black and white part of the film ends at this point and begins in color.

6. The lyics "Don't give me that do-goody-good bullsh*t" are heard as Glinda the good witch floats down in her bubble.

7. The dancing ballerinas seem to keep time with the rhythm in "Us and Them."

8. "Brain Damage" becomes the backdrop for the scarecrow scene where he's singing "If I Only Had a Brain."

9. The album ends with a heartbeat, as Dorothy presses her ear to the Tin Man's chest to listen for a heart.
