Alan Peterson I read a comment once that I loved... “those out there that think they’re cool, you will never ever be Dave Gilmour in jeans and a t-shirt with a guitar cool... ever!”
You have just witnessed Gilmour opening the heavens and baring his soul. One of my greatest enjoyments is folks like you experiencing this video for the first time. Every time I watch this, I get goosebumps and well up with emotion. There is no wonder this is considered one of the greatest sets of solos up to now.
#1 This #2 Prince - Purple Rain(argualby his Superbowl performance) #3 Eddit Van Halen #4 #5 and arguably $6 #4 Jimmi Hendrix #5 Honorable menion to Led Zeppelin, Korn,, Metallica. Respective of the era. Nuff said.However, I'm up for debate :)
Have you been to concerts? Well, I was there in 1994 and in 1987... Several times for that matter.... And it's natural to discuss your amazement with your friends. The shows were so loud and absorbing, none of us heard what was said anyway....
Mid-70's. Dark Side of the Moon concert. Three hours. Quadraphonic sound. And the lights.....oh, the lights. Unforgettable night. When "The Wall" came out, my journey continued. I haven't been the same since.
I was at that concert. Everyone in the audience was in awe during that whole solo. Even in the parking lot after the concert, everyone was still in awe from that EPIC performance. I was lucky enough to have been to a lot of their concerts. All of them are laser light type shows. David Gilmour is a master at making you feel so many emotions from his playing of his guitar. Did you notice how relaxed he was during that whole solo? He could have been sitting in his recliner chair in his living room, he was so calm and relaxed.
i was at Bobby Dodd Stadium in Atlanta for this show. I cant even describe it. But, then they did "Run Like Hell" in the encore. I thought the power grid was going to shut down!.
I must agree with you. One of the first things I noticed was the crowd...just sitting there in total awe of what was happening...no one being stupid or actin' a fool, just appreciation for such a stinking GREAT band...
to compare gilmour´s solo to a singer´s voice is remarkably thoughtful and accurate. gilmour never boasts with fast pentatonic finger-runs, like most guitarplayers do. every single note is composed like a vocal melody.
At 12 years of age I heard Another Brick in the Wall Part 2 and liked it but didn't really get into Floyd until I was 18 or 19 (1988-89). That is when I remember hearing Comfortably Numb for the first time and my reaction to Gilmour's guitar sound was "I've never heard a guitar hit those high notes before and the sound is unique too but it is like the guitar is singing. You don't even need lyrics it is like having another member performing."
I am in my 50s so I grew up with all this great music. It has always been a part of my life, I cannot imagine not knowing it. But I am a little jealous of people just discovering it for the first time as well. My favorite Pink Floyd song is "Shine On You Crazy Diamond". There is a shorter version th-cam.com/video/cWGE9Gi0bB0/w-d-xo.html and long version th-cam.com/video/8UXircX3VdM/w-d-xo.html. Both are great. Written about a founding member of Pink Floyd who suffered from mental illness and the other band members dealing with their sadness over how much he had changed over the years falling deeper into his illnesses.
@@dalejenkinson5381 I turned 64 a couple days ago, so this stuff has been part of my life for over fifty years. Amazing that after all this time it just does not lose the spark it had in my youth.
I CANNOT agree with you more. I am amazed by the youth REDISCOVERING atrists, who... 1. Played their own instruments. 2. Wrote their OWN songs. 3. DO NOT USE AUTOTUNE, EVER! 4. Perform, said songs, as well LIVE as on Recorded Album. 5. CONSECUTIVELY BE ON BILLBOARD TOP 100 FOR ALBUMs SOLD FOR 1700 WEEKS (which is 32.7 years), with Dark Side of the Moon. Glad you took this journey
I was there with my late father (he passed 8 weeks after). After this solo we both looked at each other with tears in our eyes (tears of pure joy) it is my fondest memory of Dad.
I was kinda young, and I was at this concert! And this solo was literally HISTORICAL! The COLOSSAL, EXTREMELY MASSIVE, REALLY IMPOSING, AND EPIC PINK FLOYD MACHINE! ... Phenomenal! Everyone was speechless at the end of this solo. We were all high on emotion and completely blown away, really. This concert was really impressive and imposing; the stage was just ... HUGE!!! At the end of the concert, we all were looking at the stage, trying to keep and bring all those fantastic and incredible "Pink Floyd feelings" with us. It was literally a unique and fantastic journey. It's "printed" in my brain for the rest of my life.
Please keep all rude comments off my page this ain't the place for it :) it will be removed let's keep positive energy people. Criticism is fine. Being rude is not We had to also be careful with copywrite. Love yall enjoy ❤
Thanks, another great reaction to a great performance, your pal seemed to enjoy it too. Just a quick side note, this Pulse album version is an edited solo, it clips over a minute out of the original, and the full version is around on YT if you ever want to hear it. Also, to Floyd fans a Dave Gilmour solo is sacrosanct and you may find some complaining if you talk over, interrupt, or pause it, even if just to express appreciation! Peace and love man
Guitar playing is not about widdle, widdle, wankery seeing how many notes you can play in a second. It's about feeling, how much emotion you can put into a few notes. Thats why Gilmour walks away with the prize every time.
I've had the privilege of seeing these guys and escape the real world for a little while. I was a teenager when they formed this band. Also seen alot a great bands that started out during that time and some are still with us today. Thank God. I cant complain about my time i grew up in. Loved every bit of it. Glad you fellows got a glimpse of it.
Once again you have delved into my world. At the age of 10, I went to my first concert... Pink Floyd The Wall, and I've been a fan ever since. They are a very cerebral band and if you choose to go down this rabbit hole, I promise you it will not only change your view of music, but life as well. Still waiting on Steelheart- I'll Never Let You Go.
So cool to see you do the live version; it truly gives an insight into the full stage glory of Floyd. They are a multi-sensory band, and I always left their gigs, overfed on everything that was show craft & music, feeling extra good & filled on every level. As I've said elsewhere, please, & now I'm sounding like a broken record, but PLEASE, react to the man w/the 5-octave voice, the Metal God, Rob Halford, vocalist, & his band Judas Priest. You've already said you are going to react to Priest, so choosing the first song is important, and to enter Priest's catalogue, this is the perfect starting place, w/nearly 50yrs u7nder their belts. Please, listen 'Dreamer/Deceiver' & 'Deceiver'. They show his 5-octave voice off perfectly, in every guise, and hint at what is to come. As a great singer yourself (your little licks & flicks & copies you do, priceless) you will be not only amazed at his ability, but also find it hard to keep up. That's it, begging done (for the time being). As always, I send you, you marvellous man you, UK love, friendship & respect.
Btw, the song is not about heroin. The album ”The Wall” is a concept album and a movie and it can be hard to understand by watching the movie but it boils down to a man losing his mind. Now granted he is given drugs (which could be heroin & probably was) before he had to go on stage! Also they haven't changed band members throughout the eras Sid B. left and David Gilmour came in in the 60’s other than that Rodger Waters left the group and that's that! No more changes! JS
What is about... Some say that the album "The Wall" is dedicated to Syd Barret, a founding member of Pink Floyd. He sufferd from mental problems and left the band. He died already. The character of the album portaits Sid Barret's life.
I was right with you guys until...... you talked through a moment you can never experience for the first time ever again. David Gilmours incomparable artistry during solo number 2 should be appreciated with reverence. Only the brilliance of each note should be heard.
Just make sure it is the full version which is around 24 minutes. There is an upload that breaks it up into two videos but again I would just go with the one full length.
No headset, you're just listening, you're not hearing. Talking amongst yourselves, lol. So glad to see you've come a long way since this. I love watching your excitement, and laugh myself sick at some of the stuff you say, cause I know exactly how you feel!
Must watch the whole concert on a big screen! You'll also get to hear a couple songs from the Pulse album, being current at that time. p.s. What they do w/ those lights! Each song leaves you wondering what's coming next. GREAT JOB!
Remember that night is David Gilmour concert at Royal Albert Hall . It's an amazing performance of Comfortably Numb sang by David Bowie. Actually the whole show is something will be remembered for good. Shine on you crazy diamond, Coming back to life, High hopes, Wish you were here...if you have good noise cancelling headphones just play Echoes and you will enter in another dimension for 25 minutes. Sadly that was Mr. Richard Wright last performance of this song. At that time Syd Barrett was gone too.
Great show I got to go to that one! Best thing ever! Great reaction ❤️❤️❤️ that whole concert is a must see! The ladies did great gig soooo well! Run like hell from that concert will blow your mind too.
Yesssss I’m so glad you did this one. You’re the person I’ve heard talk about those GORGEOUS silhouette shots of David Gilmore. That man really makes his guitar sing. Also amazing live performances but VERY different: Rammstein. I would recommend starting with ‘Du Has’ live from Paris 2017 and ‘Engel’ from MSG 2010 if it’s something you’re open to that 😁
You guys should've watched the uncut version from this concert, the 2nd guitar solo (the long one) is about 1min - 1min 30secs even longer in that version :P For some reason they cut it out (and did the same to a couple other songs) for the Pulse DVD; probably so that they could fit it all onto 1 dvd :P
BEST GUITAR 🎸 SOLO EVER!!! They have that version from the Pulse show on Apple Music. Keep up your reactions to Pink Floyd. They will take you on a journey!
@@ThatSingerReactions Haa! I'm just messing with you. You always give very great, animated reviews. ...That's just a standard rule among people how love the Floyd.
More about the music is about: (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Wall) Pink is a rock star, one of the many reasons which have left him depressed. Pink imagines a crowd of fans entering one of his concerts, and we begin a flashback on his life, and it is revealed that his father was killed defending the Anzio bridgehead during World War II, in Pink's infancy ("In the Flesh?"). Pink's mother raises him alone ("The Thin Ice"), and with the death of his father, Pink starts to build a metaphorical wall around himself ("Another Brick in the Wall, Part 1"). Growing older, Pink is tormented at school by tyrannical, abusive teachers ("The Happiest Days of Our Lives"), and of these traumas become metaphorical "bricks in the wall" ("Another Brick in the Wall, Part 2"). As an adult now, Pink remembers his oppressive and overprotective mother ("Mother") and his upbringing during the Blitz ("Goodbye Blue Sky"). Pink soon marries, is about to complete his "wall" ("Empty Spaces"). While touring in America, he turns to a willing groupie ("Young Lust"). After learning of his wife's infidelity, he brings the groupie back to his hotel room, only to trash it in a violent fit of rage, terrifying the groupie out of the room ("One of My Turns"). Pink, depressed, thinks about his wife, and feels trapped in his room ("Don't Leave Me Now"), and dismisses every traumatic experience he has ever had as a "brick" in the metaphorical wall ("Another Brick in the Wall, Part 3"), Pink's wall is now finished, completing his total isolation from human contact ("Goodbye Cruel World"). Immediately after the wall's completion, Pink questions his decisions, ("Hey You"), and locks himself in his hotel room ("Is There Anybody Out There?"). Beginning to feel depressed, Pink turns to his possessions for comfort ("Nobody Home"), and yearns for the idea of reconnecting with his personal roots ("Vera"), Pink's mind flashes back to World War II, with the people demanding that the soldiers return home ("Bring the Boys Back Home"). Returning to the present, Pink's manager and roadies have busted into his hotel room, where they find him drugged and unresponsive. A paramedic injects him with drugs to enable him to perform ("Comfortably Numb"). This results in a hallucinatory on-stage performance where he believes that he is a fascist dictator, and that his concert is a Neo-Nazi rally, at which he sets brownshirt-like men on fans he considers unworthy ("In the Flesh"). He proceeds to attack ethnic minorities ("Run Like Hell"), and then holds a rally in suburban London, symbolizing his descent into craziness ("Waiting for the Worms"). Pink's hallucination then ceases, and he begs for everything to stop ("Stop"). Showing human emotion, he is tormented with guilt and places himself on trial ("The Trial"), his inner judge ordering him to "tear down the wall", opening Pink to the outside world ("Outside the Wall"). The album turns full circle with its closing words "Isn't this where ...", the first words of the phrase that begins the album, "... we came in?", with a continuation of the melody of the last song hinting at the cyclical nature of Waters' theme.
this has nothing to do with heroin, at all. roger waters rote the lyrics, mainly about an experience he had before a concert where a doctor gave him something due to pain ( i forgot what for now, as its 4am where i am) .
Amazing concert! I went to see them live on this tour in Atlanta, Georgia and Washington, D.C. and both shows we're the best live shows I've ever seen to date and let's just say I've been to a LOT of concerts and I've seen some of the most amazing and iconic artist of the 80’s 90’s into the 2000s, I actually also went to see Rodger Waters perform ”The Wall” in Atlanta, Georgia in 2013 I believe it was 2013 and although the stage show was very special and rumored to be the most expensive at that time It just couldn't compare to Pink Floyd with the original members (minus Rodger Waters) and no one can compare to David Gilmour and his iconic guitar solos, especially during Comfortably Numb! When that big mirrored ball lit up the crowd went crazy & that and all the other special effects are just out of this world and something that can't be reproduced even on the highest quality video, you just had to be there! Even someone who wasn't a PF fan would've enjoyed the show! Now to tell you how versatile I am, my next concert will be Dimash in New York on December 10th and I expect an exceptional show from him as well, He is definitely going to be an icon bc he is hands down the best vocalist in the world and a exceptional performer/storyteller/musician! I made this comment before even watching your reaction so I'm about to do that now & I hope you enjoy it. I have a feeling you will! Sneding much love to The Greatest Reactor! ❤️
This was epic. Another amazing guitarist is Derek Trucks. He is highly regarded as the guitar virtuoso of our time. Check out Tedeschi Trucks Band "Midnight in Harlem" live from Crossroads Festival. His wife is the lead singer and she has an amazing voice I think you would appreciate. Believe me. I am DYING to see your reaction.
David Gilmour is like #6 on the Rolling Stone list of greatest guitarists. If you haven’t done Pink Floyd’s songs Time or Dogs yet please check them out for more incredible guitar work. There is a reason this band has sold over 250 million albums. Dark Side of the Moon was on the Billboard Top 200 for like 15 years straight. That’s YEARS, not a typo.
This version differs from the recorded version when one of the founding members, Roger Waters, left the band. Roger sung the first and third parts of this songs. In this video, those duties are covered by Rick Wright and Guy Pratt the bassist who replaced Roger.
I like you guys but was confused. While you were both merrily chatting away for ages during the song was there one of the greatest guitar solos of all time going on IN THE BACKGROUND ?? I think there was but it was hard to tell while you kept the chat going until, mercifully, you stopped 1/2 way thru' the solo....:)
Now watch "Run Like Hell" and "One Of These Days" (it has huge balloon pigs jumping out of holes at the top ends of the stage. It's friggin wild) from Pulse.
It wasn't at "pulse". This concert was held at Earl's Court, London UK. 'Pulse' is what they titled the album this came from. It refers to the heartbeat backtrack of the album, 'Dark Side of the Moon', which they played here in it's entirety.
written by waters after having to have medication to perform on stage when ill on tour with the band/ dude changes to line up were minimal poor old syd barrett lost his mind and gilmour joined the band,thats it
You don't listen to Pink Floyd, you experience it. Nobody better than Gilmour at using a guitar to make you feel emotions, but if you like some old fashioned shreddin' you should also check out Stevie Ray Vaughan's Voodoo Chile and Texas Flood. I won't claim one is better than the other since their styles are so different it's pretty much different genres of music.
I called for hours to get tickets. Didn’t get them to nearest venue so I drove 14 hours to Houston to catch this tour. They & Zeppelin were heads above all others.
the actual second solo was edited. they cut 1minute and 10 seconds from it. there are several videos of the full song. HDPink Floyd, with a split screen, showing 2 images, is the best. the sound on others isn't good. i must have heard this thousands of times. never get bored of it. some other of his really good solos are in, 'Great Day for Freedom', live at Gdansk, 'Sorrow', 'In Any Tongue', 'High Hopes', 'Coming Back To Life', all live at Pompeii, 2016
Love that you did this, Love Pink Floyd, love Comfortably Numb BUT...WRONG, DO IT AGAIN, WRONG, DO IT AGAIN! One simply does not talk during a David Gilmour solo. Stay Comfortable!
I guess it now off to "DOGS", and "PIGS (3 DIFFERENT ONES)", next....in fact just do as FLOYD intended and watch an album from START TO FINISH, to 100% get the Enttire meaning of their Concept albums....which they are the INNOVATORS IF NOT ORIGINATORS. I like how you FEEL the EMOTION EMITTED frim Gilmours guitar. Please continue on this EPIC JOURNEY OF PINK FLOYD...it will definately get you views as well as expand your GENRES of music if you arent familiar. God Bless GREAT REACTION,👍👍👍👍👍
Saw them in 1987 at the L.A. Coliseum. Comfortably Numb, was the last song in the show, although there were two encore/curtain calls. Simply stellar. The crowd was folks from teens to elders and everyone was mellow. About every five minutes a joint would get passed your way. During the break, scores of us hopped the barrier and moved to the front of the infield to be right up close. Nobody even raised a finger to stop us.
If you think this recording was great, check out David Gilmour Comfortably numb live at Pompeii. He extends the solo and puts even MORE feeling into the solo.
Really???...i mean come on man. Theres only one rule....."Thow shall never talk through a David Gilmore solo" Especially this one...its only the greatest solo ever.
It doesn't matter what live concert you watch they are all different an all brilliant,, Pompeii 2016 3 years ago is my personal favourite ✌ P.s they only changed one band member!!
Are you ready for Al Di Meola ? Race With The Devil On A Spanish Highway, Elegant Gypsy Suite, Egyptian Danza, Fantasia Suite For 2 Guitars, Alien Chase On Arabian Desert
The Wall didn't come out until 1979. Dark Side of the Moon came out in 1973. They did not achieve fame til late 68 and that was not from their music, just photo shoots in all. They made it big time when they made it lol, this is the best group ever. This solo won best of 10, they should have won number one in my book.
Dunno the technicalities, but reaction videos where the reactor is wearing headphones give a massively better sound for the viewers, and that song absolutely demands good sound quality! We are just hearing one little mike picking things up in a room, very thin and tinny. That said, thanks for doing one of the great performances of anybodies time!! Stay safe friend.
Dude, you should listen to a band called Country Joe and the Fish, song called “crystal blues”. They’re also a 60’s band that kills! that song has some SIIIIICK guitar riffs!
I love Country Joe & the Fish. Anything from Electric Music for the Mind and Body would be awesome but I'd put in a special mention for Not So Sweet Martha Lorraine.

Alan Peterson I read a comment once that I loved... “those out there that think they’re cool, you will never ever be Dave Gilmour in jeans and a t-shirt with a guitar cool... ever!”
Then you got roger who hasnt worn anything but a black shirt and black pants for the past like 10 years
Repeat to self, I must never ever talk over a Dave Gilmour guitar solo.
Do not talk. Sir Gilmour talking..that's the law

David Gilmore’s solo in this song is regarded as being one of the best rock solos in the history of rock music.

I'm not used to people talking during the best solo ever!
Yeah I can't handle it. I'm done
🤫. Just listen and feel. Don’t speak.
You mean when Jimi Hendrix playing the Star Spangled Banner at Woodstock? Yes thats one of the best. This is great. Not the best.

Probably the greatest ever British rock band, I'm so glad I grew up listening to them throughout the 70's, 80's and 90's the music just doesn't age.
Did that guy just talk over a Gilmour solo, this solo!!
Yes he did as matter fact both of them did. What punishment should be meated out to these two HEATHENS this sacrilege should not go unpunished

to compare gilmour´s solo to a singer´s voice is remarkably thoughtful and accurate. gilmour never boasts with fast pentatonic finger-runs, like most guitarplayers do. every single note is composed like a vocal melody.
Every single note has meaning. He wastes nothing, nor does he over do it just to show off.
I always considered Dave as Cosmic Blues...totally in his own category
At 12 years of age I heard Another Brick in the Wall Part 2 and liked it but didn't really get into Floyd until I was 18 or 19 (1988-89).

Now, try Run Like Hell from the Pulse Concert if you really want to see a light show. It was the finale of the concert.

Love the Run like hell portion
I like watching Dave and Guy Pratt together on RLH. They compliment each other well.

have to see "Echoes" live in Pompeii,from the early days,another masterpiece
Just make sure it is the full version which is around 24 minutes. There is an upload that breaks it up into two videos but again I would just go with the one full length.
Pink Floyd is also know for having the best light shows by far.
I saw them at RFK stadium in DC during the Pulse tour in 1994. Amazing show!
Genius.....that guitar and beat just hypnotizes you..
Nothin better then rollin with some Pink Floyd
No headset, you're just listening, you're not hearing. Talking amongst yourselves, lol. So glad to see you've come a long way since this. I love watching your excitement, and laugh myself sick at some of the stuff you say, cause I know exactly how you feel!
If people are here and listening to music 500 years from now, Floyd will still be heard. How many bands can you say that about?
One of my other favorite reactors calls them "the cerebral poets of rock". So meditative, expressive, deep. A real experience.
Greatest solo of all time. Not even debatable.
Never, never talk thru a David Gilmore solo.
man you guys trip me out man loved it
Thou shalt not talk during a Gilmour solo
Fortunate to be there in 94 and I’m still crying with goosebumps
thanks for this one 👍🎶✨🎸 it's time for TIME now .. 😁
I told you....everyone and their brother were right.
Must watch the whole concert on a big screen! You'll also get to hear a couple songs from the Pulse album, being current at that time. p.s. What they do w/ those lights! Each song leaves you wondering what's coming next. GREAT JOB!
Remember that night is David Gilmour concert at Royal Albert Hall .
It's an amazing performance of Comfortably Numb sang by David Bowie. Actually the whole show is something will be remembered for good. Shine on you crazy diamond, Coming back to life, High hopes, Wish you were here...if you have good noise cancelling headphones just play Echoes and you will enter in another dimension for 25 minutes. Sadly that was Mr. Richard Wright last performance of this song. At that time Syd Barrett was gone too.
Great show I got to go to that one! Best thing ever! Great reaction ❤️❤️❤️ that whole concert is a must see! The ladies did great gig soooo well! Run like hell from that concert will blow your mind too.
Yesssss I’m so glad you did this one. You’re the person I’ve heard talk about those GORGEOUS silhouette shots of David Gilmore. That man really makes his guitar sing.
Also amazing live performances but VERY different: Rammstein. I would recommend starting with ‘Du Has’ live from Paris 2017 and ‘Engel’ from MSG 2010 if it’s something you’re open to that 😁
You gotta do How Many More Times at Royal Albert Hall! Plus you don’t have to worry about copyright with them live!

The awesome thing about their music, you don't need stimulants to enjoy it. I think you enjoy it better when you're not in an altered state!
Check out Run Like Hell from the same concert. Best light show you'll ever see!
the practically blew the stage up on that one :)
😎 oh we invented “out of the box” and raised the “cool factor “ to a whole new level .
I was there guys, magical. Great reaction
You guys should've watched the uncut version from this concert, the 2nd guitar solo (the long one) is about 1min - 1min 30secs even longer in that version :P For some reason they cut it out (and did the same to a couple other songs) for the Pulse DVD; probably so that they could fit it all onto 1 dvd :P
Welcome to the magical mystical sounds of Pink Floyd. Let Floyd take your mind and ears places they may never get to again.
Doesn't count without headphones and played loud
BEST GUITAR 🎸 SOLO EVER!!! They have that version from the Pulse show on Apple Music. Keep up your reactions to Pink Floyd. They will take you on a journey!
(6:13) *ATTENTION:* _"No talking during Gilmour's guitar solo!"_
But did you notice my attention was there I mimicked the guitar right after. I have very programmed ears when it comes to music lol but noted for sure
@@ThatSingerReactions Haa! I'm just messing with you. You always give very great, animated reviews. ...That's just a standard rule among people how love the Floyd.
More about the music is about: (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Wall)
Pink is a rock star, one of the many reasons which have left him depressed. Pink imagines a crowd of fans entering one of his concerts, and we begin a flashback on his life, and it is revealed that his father was killed defending the Anzio bridgehead during World War II, in Pink's infancy ("In the Flesh?"). Pink's mother raises him alone ("The Thin Ice"), and with the death of his father, Pink starts to build a metaphorical wall around himself ("Another Brick in the Wall, Part 1").
Growing older, Pink is tormented at school by tyrannical, abusive teachers ("The Happiest Days of Our Lives"), and of these traumas become metaphorical "bricks in the wall" ("Another Brick in the Wall, Part 2"). As an adult now, Pink remembers his oppressive and overprotective mother ("Mother") and his upbringing during the Blitz ("Goodbye Blue Sky"). Pink soon marries, is about to complete his "wall" ("Empty Spaces"). While touring in America, he turns to a willing groupie ("Young Lust"). After learning of his wife's infidelity, he brings the groupie back to his hotel room, only to trash it in a violent fit of rage, terrifying the groupie out of the room ("One of My Turns"). Pink, depressed, thinks about his wife, and feels trapped in his room ("Don't Leave Me Now"), and dismisses every traumatic experience he has ever had as a "brick" in the metaphorical wall ("Another Brick in the Wall, Part 3"), Pink's wall is now finished, completing his total isolation from human contact ("Goodbye Cruel World").
Immediately after the wall's completion, Pink questions his decisions, ("Hey You"), and locks himself in his hotel room ("Is There Anybody Out There?"). Beginning to feel depressed, Pink turns to his possessions for comfort ("Nobody Home"), and yearns for the idea of reconnecting with his personal roots ("Vera"), Pink's mind flashes back to World War II, with the people demanding that the soldiers return home ("Bring the Boys Back Home"). Returning to the present, Pink's manager and roadies have busted into his hotel room, where they find him drugged and unresponsive. A paramedic injects him with drugs to enable him to perform ("Comfortably Numb").
This results in a hallucinatory on-stage performance where he believes that he is a fascist dictator, and that his concert is a Neo-Nazi rally, at which he sets brownshirt-like men on fans he considers unworthy ("In the Flesh"). He proceeds to attack ethnic minorities ("Run Like Hell"), and then holds a rally in suburban London, symbolizing his descent into craziness ("Waiting for the Worms"). Pink's hallucination then ceases, and he begs for everything to stop ("Stop"). Showing human emotion, he is tormented with guilt and places himself on trial ("The Trial"), his inner judge ordering him to "tear down the wall", opening Pink to the outside world ("Outside the Wall"). The album turns full circle with its closing words "Isn't this where ...", the first words of the phrase that begins the album, "... we came in?", with a continuation of the melody of the last song hinting at the cyclical nature of Waters' theme.
this has nothing to do with heroin, at all. roger waters rote the lyrics, mainly about an experience he had before a concert where a doctor gave him something due to pain ( i forgot what for now, as its 4am where i am) .
@Irish South Siderballoons refers to hands swelling. again, no reference at all, to heroin in the song.
What can you say? It's a LIVE Pink Floyd masterpiece!!
Amazing concert! I went to see them live on this tour in Atlanta, Georgia and Washington, D.C. and both shows we're the best live shows I've ever seen to date and let's just say I've been to a LOT of concerts and I've seen some of the most amazing and iconic artist of the 80’s 90’s into the 2000s, I actually also went to see Rodger Waters perform ”The Wall” in Atlanta, Georgia in 2013 I believe it was 2013 and although the stage show was very special and rumored to be the most expensive at that time It just couldn't compare to Pink Floyd with the original members (minus Rodger Waters) and no one can compare to David Gilmour and his iconic guitar solos, especially during Comfortably Numb! When that big mirrored ball lit up the crowd went crazy & that and all the other special effects are just out of this world and something that can't be reproduced even on the highest quality video, you just had to be there! Even someone who wasn't a PF fan would've enjoyed the show! Now to tell you how versatile I am, my next concert will be Dimash in New York on December 10th and I expect an exceptional show from him as well, He is definitely going to be an icon bc he is hands down the best vocalist in the world and a exceptional performer/storyteller/musician! I made this comment before even watching your reaction so I'm about to do that now & I hope you enjoy it. I have a feeling you will! Sneding much love to The Greatest Reactor! ❤️
This was epic. Another amazing guitarist is Derek Trucks. He is highly regarded as the guitar virtuoso of our time. Check out Tedeschi Trucks Band "Midnight in Harlem" live from Crossroads Festival. His wife is the lead singer and she has an amazing voice I think you would appreciate. Believe me. I am DYING to see your reaction.
I agree with Holly! Awesome player!
Everytime I saw Pink Floyd in concert, l have to admit that I was on some kind of stimulants, the only way to experience them👍
Plz react to "time" plzzzzzzz!!! The meaning in the lyrics!!!
One of the best PF songs. Indeed the lyrics have a deep message.
Best riff.Beautiful how they did it.Their concert at Pompeii- another great rendition of that song.
Pulse 94 Floyd, one of these days or sorrow, just amazing 👌
Gilmour's solos are not background music!!!
David Gilmour is like #6 on the Rolling Stone list of greatest guitarists. If you haven’t done Pink Floyd’s songs Time or Dogs yet please check them out for more incredible guitar work. There is a reason this band has sold over 250 million albums. Dark Side of the Moon was on the Billboard Top 200 for like 15 years straight. That’s YEARS, not a typo.
This version differs from the recorded version when one of the founding members, Roger Waters, left the band. Roger sung the first and third parts of this songs. In this video, those duties are covered by Rick Wright and Guy Pratt the bassist who replaced Roger.
The two of you talked over perhaps the greatest guitar solo ever recorded!! I am disappointed with you! Loose the friend for your reactions .
Man big fan of the channel, anyways the best way to describe Pink Floyd's music is as "Consensual Misery"
I was at this concert! It was out of this world!
I like you guys but was confused. While you were both merrily chatting away for ages during the song was there one of the greatest guitar solos of all time going on
IN THE BACKGROUND ?? I think there was but it was hard to tell while you kept the chat going until, mercifully, you stopped 1/2 way thru' the solo....:)
Welcome to my smash cd alum I played over and over in the 90's when I was only just getting in my early 20's
That's right I'm 46
Now watch "Run Like Hell" and "One Of These Days" (it has huge balloon pigs jumping out of holes at the top ends of the stage. It's friggin wild) from Pulse.
The revolving speaker cabinets, something Pink Floyd pioneered. They use it on their studio albums as well...
It wasn't at "pulse".
This concert was held at Earl's Court, London UK. 'Pulse' is what they titled the album this came from. It refers to the heartbeat backtrack of the album, 'Dark Side of the Moon', which they played here in it's entirety.
94' was the "Division Bell Tour"!!!
written by waters after having to have medication to perform on stage when ill on tour with the band/ dude changes to line up were minimal poor old syd barrett lost his mind and gilmour joined the band,thats it
You don't listen to Pink Floyd, you experience it. Nobody better than Gilmour at using a guitar to make you feel emotions, but if you like some old fashioned shreddin' you should also check out Stevie Ray Vaughan's Voodoo Chile and Texas Flood. I won't claim one is better than the other since their styles are so different it's pretty much different genres of music.
Told you they take you on a journey 💞
I remember seeing them at the Syracuse Dome around this time for the division bell tour. It blew my mind!
I called for hours to get tickets. Didn’t get them to nearest venue so I drove 14 hours to Houston to catch this tour. They & Zeppelin were heads above all others.
Pink Floyd was formed in 1965. One of my absolute favorite bands.
You should hear it through headphones seriously it's makes all the difference.. Found memories of this song
"this shit is beautiful man" perfect compliment
One of the best, if not the best, live guitar solo ever recorded.
the actual second solo was edited. they cut 1minute and 10 seconds from it. there are several videos of the full song. HDPink Floyd, with a split screen, showing 2 images, is the best. the sound on others isn't good. i must have heard this thousands of times. never get bored of it. some other of his really good solos are in, 'Great Day for Freedom', live at Gdansk, 'Sorrow', 'In Any Tongue', 'High Hopes', 'Coming Back To Life', all live at Pompeii, 2016
Love that you did this, Love Pink Floyd, love Comfortably Numb BUT...WRONG, DO IT AGAIN, WRONG, DO IT AGAIN! One simply does not talk during a David Gilmour solo. Stay Comfortable!
I guess it now off to "DOGS", and "PIGS (3 DIFFERENT ONES)", next....in fact just do as FLOYD intended and watch an album from START TO FINISH, to 100% get the Enttire meaning of their Concept albums....which they are the INNOVATORS IF NOT ORIGINATORS.
I like how you FEEL the EMOTION EMITTED frim Gilmours guitar. Please continue on this EPIC JOURNEY OF PINK FLOYD...it will definately get you views as well as expand your GENRES of music if you arent familiar. God Bless GREAT REACTION,👍👍👍👍👍
Saw them in 94 during this time
Same, Kansas City.
Saw them in 1987 at the L.A. Coliseum. Comfortably Numb, was the last song in the show, although there were two encore/curtain calls. Simply stellar. The crowd was folks from teens to elders and everyone was mellow. About every five minutes a joint would get passed your way. During the break, scores of us hopped the barrier and moved to the front of the infield to be right up close. Nobody even raised a finger to stop us.
This was filmed during a 10 date run at Earls Court, London. I was lucky enough to attend 6 of them as I was working in London at the time.
You are two lucky guys.. getting the chance to learn how to listen to Pink Floyd without talking through a masterpiece.
Us and Them
Sorrow
Marroned
Wearing the Inside out
Have a Cigar
Great reaction!! Check out SORROW from the same pulse concert. As good as what you just watched/heard. Just AWESOME!!!
If you think this recording was great, check out David Gilmour Comfortably numb live at Pompeii. He extends the solo and puts even MORE feeling into the solo.
Really???...i mean come on man.
Theres only one rule....."Thow shall never talk through a David Gilmore solo"
Especially this one...its only the greatest solo ever.
It doesn't matter what live concert you watch they are all different an all brilliant,, Pompeii 2016 3 years ago is my personal favourite ✌
P.s they only changed one band member!!
Best version of this song ever. EVER. PERIOD. DONE.
Are you ready for
Al Di Meola ?
Race With The Devil On A Spanish Highway, Elegant Gypsy Suite, Egyptian Danza, Fantasia Suite For 2 Guitars,
Alien Chase On Arabian Desert
The Wall didn't come out until 1979. Dark Side of the Moon came out in 1973. They did not achieve fame til late 68 and that was not from their music, just photo shoots in all. They made it big time when they made it lol, this is the best group ever. This solo won best of 10, they should have won number one in my book.
Dunno the technicalities, but reaction videos where the reactor is wearing headphones give a massively better sound for the viewers, and that song absolutely demands good sound quality! We are just hearing one little mike picking things up in a room, very thin and tinny. That said, thanks for doing one of the great performances of anybodies time!! Stay safe friend.
For Christmas all guitars want a Guilmor.
How can you know how good the guitar solo is if you’re constantly talking over it all the time?
Dude, you should listen to a band called Country Joe and the Fish, song called “crystal blues”. They’re also a 60’s band that kills! that song has some SIIIIICK guitar riffs!
I love Country Joe & the Fish. Anything from Electric Music for the Mind and Body would be awesome but I'd put in a special mention for Not So Sweet Martha Lorraine.
Alison Anthony such a good album! my favorite off that would probably be Bass Strings.
