"Breathe" (sometimes called "Breathe (In the Air)") is a song by English progressive rock band Pink Floyd. It appears on their 1973 album The Dark Side of the Moon.[2]
Authorship and composition
The authorship and composition of this song is credited to David Gilmour and Richard Wright for the music and Roger Waters for the lyrics.[2] Dark Side, admitted the latter, "is a little adolescent and naïve in its preoccupations, but I'm not belittling it. It's like a rather wonderful, naïve painting. 'Breathe in the air / Don't be afraid to care' – that's the opening couplet. Well, yeah, I can cop that, but it's kind of simplistic stuff."[3]
The song is slow-paced and rich in texture, and features Gilmour playing the electric guitar with a Uni-Vibe and lap steel guitar with a volume pedal and several overdubs.[4] On the original album, it is a separate track from "Speak to Me", the sound collage that opens the first side.[2] Since this track segues into "Breathe" via a sustained backwards piano chord, the two are conjoined on most CD versions of the album.[5] A one-minute reprise features at the end of the song "Time",[2] without the slide guitar and using Farfisa organ and Wurlitzer electronic piano in place of Hammond organ and Rhodes piano.
The chords for much of the song alternate between E minor(add9) and A major, with a turnaround appearing before the verses and then functioning as a chorus, consisting of C major seventh, B minor seventh, F major seventh, G major, D7(♯9) and D#dim.[6] Wright admitted to having lifted the D7(#9) in the progression from Miles Davis' Kind of Blue. It is an exact quote from bar 9 of "All Blues" even though the 2 songs are in different keys.[7]
Along with the other Pink Floyd tracks "Time" and "The Great Gig in the Sky", "Breathe" is seen as Gilmour "carving out a more distinctive style" with the introduction of blues-based chords and solos.[8] "Breathe" has also been seen to "embrace ecology".[9]
This song was one of several to be considered for the band's "best of" album, Echoes: The Best of Pink Floyd.[10]
Alternative and live versions
- The Pulse CD and DVD features a live version of the song[2] with a run time of 2:33.
- The song was played at the Live 8 concert and features on the DVD. For that performance, "Breathe" and "Breathe (Reprise)" were combined to form one song.

- The solo Roger Waters DVD and CD, In the Flesh – Live, features a version of the song sung by Doyle Bramhall and Jon Carin.
- Live versions with Richard Wright appear on the Gilmour solo Remember That Night DVD and Live in Gdańsk CD. The Live in Gdańsk version is titled "Breathe (In the Air)" rather than just "Breathe".
