Best part: "I'm gona shut up, this is the guitar solo."
Smart man
And it wasn’t yet THE guitar solo, just the first one!
Brilliant. I applauded Ken at that.
Best decision ever
He is one gentleman
2nd guitar solo is as close to perfection that a human can achieve.
Agreed. 💚
The whole song
the best version is on Pulse tour DVD. That was perfection. Was perfect in tune, in FX, in the delay time, bendings, etc.
Was the perfect solo.
Personally I think it's far from his best but it's still masterful.
@@MigMart75 I also used to think that until the Delicate Sound of Thunder remix came out
David Gilmore is one of the most masterful soulful guitarists in rock music. His legendary ability to evoke and encompass the full range of human emotion with his guitar playing makes him one of the best guitarists ever. He makes you feel every cord, note, bend and slide. His tone is incredible and what he plays is so perfectly arranged. He is not a shredder or an overly technical guitarist, and he doesn't play a ton of notes but, he makes everything he plays count.
He is god
who? get his name correct. Brad Benneti
Every note counts
And that to me beats shredding any day of the week.
Pink Floyd...by far the best live show I’ve ever seen in my life. The music, the lasers and lights, the overall atmosphere. There is legit nothing like it and after they retire for good, there never will be again.
I actually love his older voice it’s the sign of experience and wisdom.
His voice has gotten old but that guitarwork hasn't. pristine, haunting, nostalgic, soulful, unbelievable.
I really like your reaction videos. Most vocal coaches pause every 2 seconds. You really enjoy listening to the music and don't fixate on every single detail of the vocal performance and it's really a relief
Having this at my funeral. Adore David’s voice and guitar playing from the soul.
I can tell you Im one of the guys that picked up the guitar to play the solos of this song. 😂 There are alot of us out here. Truly an inspiring performace
Keep practicing.
It really is! Love trying to recreate it, easily too much fun
the problem is... no one can do it at same level :D
Same here. And of course I've been to laser Floyd about a dozen times.
This song is one of the most moving pieces of music I have ever heard. And the live versions seem especially powerful and charged with emotion. One of my all time favorite Pink Floyd songs.
Same. It is difficult to pick a favourite among their many songs but this one is somehow special.
This song blows me away every single time i listen to it, simply one of the best bands ever!
I saw the show with Roger Waters and David Gilmour as a guest in ' the Wall' about 8 years ago. In the Netherlands. Freaking amazing
Lie. Gilmour guested only in London.
😂 He guested in London
the most amazing guitarist i ever seen live and i was lucky enough to see him 2 nights in a row during their division bell tour
David was my influence for picking up a guitar. I can play his stuff and I can play stuff from people who are considered more complicated guitarists (Yngwie Malmsteen, Jason Becker etc) but I still go back and still enjoy playing David's solo's. He just had a way of making the guitar presence larger than life.
What I learned from him is how to bend the total shit out of a guitar string. We are talking like a 2 1/2 to 3 step bend. That alone is hard to do. Great guitarist.
You mentioned a bit more gravel in his voice compared to 30 years ago... Time flies, because it's actually been 40 years since the song was recorded! 😯 That's right - creeping up on almost half a century 👴 Thanks for choosing a great version of an immortal song... well done!
This is the only song that makes me cry and smile at the same time. The way he plays his guitar is beyond words. This should be the last guitar solo played on existence of universe. Like I would give 20 years of my life to see him on a live concert.
Great reaction to a great song, and one of my favorite bands of all time. With that being said, one of my other favorite bands (Alice In Chains) has a song called Down In A Hole, which, as a singer, I think you will appreciate very much. The harmonies between the lead singer (Layne) and the back up and lead guitarist (Jerry) are amazing! Make sure you do the live, unplugged version. I promise you will not be disappointed!
This is the song that made me pick up my guitar too 😁
Absolutely legendary
Love the “One of these days” comment to the computer. Lol. Pretty slick
He said "chop", tho
:(
Absolutely sensational. My all time favourite performance of ‘Comfortably Numb’, from David Gilmour, in the wonderful setting of this Amphitheater, in Pompeii. This time with a crowd, unlike his previous performance their with Pink Floyd, in 1971, when they played the wonderful ’Echoes’. David is 70 years of age at this Show, in 2016.
And you’re right, you should have your headphones on too. Very loud.
I was lucky enough to see this Show at a one night only Cinema Showing. Magnificent, all of it.
Truly wonderful. 🎶❤️🎶
I had the privilege of seeing Pink Floyd in Tampa Florida in 1987,one of the best live performances I have ever seen. All of their shows rock but if you get a minute check out the pulse version of Comfortably Numb.
One of the best guitar solos ever. I never listened to music much until one of my friends in high school introduced me to Pink Floyd . Now i love music, listen to all kinds of stuff now.
It is remarkable, the man was in his 70s and still as powerful as he was in the Pulse concert. The man is a literal guitar God!
David is such a wonderful singer! I love his deep voice
*_Please react to High Hopes Live in Gdansk_* imho, that may be one of my favorite Gilmour solos and his voice is absolutely mesmerizing. That is a song that has a bit of everything that is great about Dave, esp that version!! His vocals, the acoustic guitar>steel pedal solo>acoustic outro with those strings is nothing short of perfection. That song and that performance with the orchestra is Ethereal!! The entire show is absolutely beautiful with my fav version of Echoes(sans the original Live at Pompeii 1972 obvi) with the late, great Richard Wright. RIP Rick
David Gilmore, and Pink Floyd, show that you don't need to put a note in every spot you can. When every note you play is perfect! Still amazing, excellent reaction video.
Not many are listening for the singing. We are here to hear the master play the Guitar.
One of the most iconic guitar solos and bands of all time..this live performance is proof why..David Gilmour shine on you crazy diamond lol
Remember this is a guitarist singing not a singer playing the guitar. He's also in his 70's and not in his 20's anymore. I didn't go to the planetarium because I went to see Dave Gilmour instead.
Now that, that is what I call a reply, you sir/mam, are great!
Hahaha.. yes, I went and saw the Pink Floyd laser show at the IMAX planetarium theater in downtown Charlotte, NC... it was a 12 o'clock midnight show on a Saturday evening after a downtown concert fest... it was mind-blowing. Before the show they had an announcement something like this: "This theater's IMAX sound system has 100,000 watts of power, and warning, if loud music causes problems for you, please leave now, because this show will be played at full power." You could hear every vibration of a guitar string and feel the bass in your chest. That was about 20 years ago and it still gives me chills to think about it... and yes, there was an aroma.
he always plays the first solo like in the album (people would likely go mad if he didn't), and improvises more on the second one.
I saw this show earlier in the tour and David's voice was brilliant. I understand that he had a cold during the later part of tour - that probably accounts for the slight hoarseness here.
Saw this concert in a movie theater with my dad.. It was so good to share the experience with him, since he's to "blame" for me listening to so many great artists, Pink Floyd, Jethro Tull, Rush, Tool ....
Ken, this song was recorded in 1979 (released in 1980,) so it’s been 40+ years since the recording. David was 33 when he sang this for the album, and he’s 70 in the above footage. 🖤
This song is just timeless. David could never figure out how to shred, so he learned other ways to make the guitar tell his stories. Thank god for that, his guitar just digs into your soul and wraps itself around all your emotion buttons and mashes them relentlessly.
Is shredding that hard?
@@edp3202 Some people have the knack for it, some people dont. It's like any other skill, some are suited for it, some aren't. David isn't, so he developed godly string bending skills that very very few can match.
@@ngcolby did Eddie van Halen shred?
@@edp3202 I dunno if I would call Eddie a shredder. He kinda had his own style. He was very good tho. Joe Satriani and Steve Vai, those were two awesome shredders. So is Buckethead.
One song... two of the greatest guitar solos in Rock history! And I love how frustrated he got when the song didn't end.
David and the rest of pink Floyd aged just like their music
P E R F E C T L Y
Dave has had a lot of different people preform Roger's vocal parts for this. There's a good one out there with Bowie doing the song with him. I also wonder how far into the show this is, as he sounds a bit tired and probably has a dry throat, because I've seen him do this at this age and he sounded smoother in those performance. Great video, thanks for a good way to start the day 😁
Did you ever hear Eddie Vedder sing it, its brilliant not David brilliant but really good
Always the final encore
@Rob Tonge
For this tour it was always the second to last song of the night before Run Like Hell closes the shows. I agree, it's a bit raspy and raw, but he makes it work superbly. One of my favourite versions and I've heard them all. lol
I picked up a guitar because of Gilmour, mostly. I soon realized that I'd never be 10% as good as him but I still enjoy it. He's the best guitarist of all time, no cap !
Imo this is best live version; the additional musicians fill it out properly. The drummer and bassist look like they're having the time of lives...I don't blame them
*ALSO...NEW SUB*
Best reaction by far ken.! Love the part of you pointing out he’s British “can’t” pronunciation!! Also your respect of just how talented this mild mannered guitar geniuses is is impressive.! Great knowledge and understanding of Gilmour ken..Bravo my frien!👏
So glad, honored I saw them in 1994 Division Bell tour! Oldest band I think I've seen . Thanks
At our planetarium it was called cosmic concert and YES they were awesome ...
I was in a motorcycle accident in 2012 and had to have surgery to repair 2 bones in my arm. As I was wheeled from recovery to my bed, I turned the tv on and Comfortably Numb was playing. I will never forget that moment!
Gilmour's voice get of course a noticeble raspness due aging, but his guitar doesn't. That's his second voice that never ages.
The voice of the doctor in the original record was by Richard Wright
This is so fantastic, my favorite version of this is the one off of Pulse, but Delicate Sound of Thunder is a close second.. The performance with the crazy “disco ball” is super mesmerizing and his voice was insanely divine. This is one of my all time favorite songs, I live for that second guitar solo 🎸, and that live performance is such an experience! David Gilmour is 75 this year also.. Thank you for your reaction.
SPOT ON ..!! I actually picked up the guitar many year ago because all I wanted to learn was that comfortably numb solo ..!! 👍☺️ Lol
I was one of the people who started playing guitar because of Gilmour, haha.
He did a version Shine on you Crazy Diamond at the Mermaid Theater a few years ago that was incredible. During the verses it was just him signing and playing guitar by himself. It gives me chills. It’s kind of hard to find now, but I think the Live at Gdańsk version was similar if I remember correctly.
5:25 "the aroma in the planetarium was very soothing!" 😂😂😂
Back in the day when it was MUSIC that moved people (not dancers)! Nice to see folks still enjoying them - they are living legends!!
Yes, the great Chuck Leavell on keyboards\vocals. ... singing the Roger Waters part (there is a great live version w Bowie). LOVED the Laser Floyd at the Hayden Planetarium! LOL YES...PLEASE HEADPHONES!
I am...all the difference in the world!!
Easily one of the top 5 guitar players of all time and a pretty damn good vocalist as well
you get the like just because of the: i'm gonna shut up, this the guitar solo. That and it's comfortably numb... easy
P.S.: that's not the chills, that's David Gilmour touching your soul
Yes!! I was just thinking about that lightshow .. It was awesome!
Thank you for being as real and honest as you can.
Here are the most AMAZING Chris Cornell voice`s track ever. Please, the world needs a vocal coach reacting to this...
Soundgarden - Slaves & Bulldozers
Soundgarden - Beyond the Wheel
Soundgarden - Cold Bitch
Soundgarden - Birth Ritual
Shut up , David Gilmour is playing .
Thank you!!! The Pompeii Version, not the 1994 Pulse version! I love it!
David gilmour is so so amazing, talented , it’s too much ❤️🎶🙏🏻
I saw this show at the Royal Albert Hall before he toured and this was the final show of that tour. Best gig I’ve EVER been to, hands down ❤️❤️❤️
To me, the guitar solo is a continuation of the vocal. David expresses all the anger and pain. Ah, so good!
it´s nice you took the pompeii 2016 version. though pulse 1994 is the most spectacular one of this song, it is great to see gilmour age like good old red wine, becoming better and better still. he is 70 in this video.
I saw that concert live. Best damn concert I’ve seen!!
Thanks for adding the roar of the audience at the end of your video :D That long guitar solo is really hypnotic, thank you for reacting to it. May I ask you to look at one of the songs of David Bowie? While you have started to listen to Davids :)
Laser Floyd at the planetarium was awesome. Ours used to do the entire Dark Side of the Moon EP. They also had other nights featuring Aerosmith, The Who, etc. Also, just an FYI, in the original lineup Roger Waters sang the doctor's part.
Yes :) Planetarium Bochum in Germany, it was great
I think David Gilmour turn 75 just a couple of weeks ago. And it blows me away to watch this thinking Comfortably Numb is always perform llast and he can still nail it!
I picked up the guitar to play songs like this. It was note-for-note 20 years ago, and now I have my own spin on it. Pretty sure Dave would approve!
This is a great song! I don’t wanna keep pushing it but we gotta see more Tool! Keep it up 👍🏻
So much kudos for this moment.... "I'm gona shut up, this is the guitar solo."
You're absolutely right, they don't sound any different than they did back then I'm not a singer at all, sounds great to me though. Good point about backup singers softening it. Still amazing. And Someone that understands the importance of solos! LOL excellent reaction. Thank you
Yep, went to the Planetarium for the laser light show here in Orlando lots of times as a teen. Apparently they all have that aroma lol.
"I dont know how old he was". 4 years ago Pompeii was played, he is 74 now. 70 years old playing to THOUSANDS of people, in a stadium that was built BEFORE Christ was born.
Yes that stadium is over 2000 years old.
Oh and his Youngest daughter (Romany), has just turned 18.

You should check out Gilmour live in Gdansk from 2006. Vocals are impeccable.
It was like you said, half David half Roger singing on the recorded version
David Gilmour the only man that can walk on stage dressed like a plumber and rip out the most amazing guitar licks with such ease its incredible .... i can say i was lucky enough to see them live July 6th 1994 at the CNE Grand Stand Toronto Canada for the Division Bell tour Row c seat 39 the cost was $42.50 and i still have the concert stub today
You should react to the 94 Pulse concert performance. See what Gilmour was like in his prime. As far as the Pompeii performance goes, the only member of Pink Floyd on that stage is Gilmour. The band is is Gilmour's band. A little trivia, Gilmour was the first live act in the Amphitheater of Pompeii since 79AD. The guitar strap he's using was Jimi Hendricks. Gilmour's wife bought it for him for his birthday. You should also react to Sorrow from the same concert.
The best version of the guitar solo is an authorized tribute band called Brit Floyd, live at Hammersmith (?) show.
Oh, and ya. I used to go to the St. Louis planetarium. I was a farm girl from southern Illinois, and it was the space shows that turned me on to electronic/ambient/space music. The laser shows were good, but I loved the space shows.
He, wandering off to the woods, but gave you everything helped folks with their vocals after having diastasis recti?
As approach my sixth decade, most days, this my favorite song of all time,. However, it depends on my mood for the day
Please don't take offense, but I'm here for Gilmour and the song. This is one of the best songs ever (you should have done the Pulse concert instead).
Agree 1000%. Plus Richard Wright sings Roger’s part.
👍👍👍👍👍
I dont find the pulse version any better than this one! just different ... both absolutely equal fantastic. and the solo in the version with david bowie was the best of all 3 if i remember correctly.
DJ Falko Hannover agreed!!
Jep. The Pulse version is the best. Specially the uncut version with the long solo.
yes! i saw the laser light show a few times in houston where i grew up
Lyrics by Roger Waters, music by Dave Gilmour. Waters originally sang the "Doctor" part, then after the split it was Richard Wright. There is a 2006 version from The Royal Albert Hall where David Bowie is the guest vocalist, with Graham Nash and David Crosby singing back up vocals. To be able to play that solo at age 70 (in 2016) is just a testimony to Gilmour's artistry and mastery of the guitar. I like to think of him as the "Shakespeare" of guitar solos. That solo also put Vesuvius to sleep for another two thousand years.
LOL, i remember the Pink Floyd Laser Light show at the Univ of Arizona planetarium.
Yes, in the Toronto planetarium to Echoes atleast 35 years ago
David Gilmour was about 33 when Pink Floyd originally recorded Comfortably Numb. He was 70 in this recording
Yes! Planetarium Pink Floyd was amazing. Great contact high too😉
Yep, saw 'Dark Side of the Moon' at the Buhl Planetarium in Pittsburgh back in the 80s.
The look on your face, sheer enjoyment
Why didn't you review the Live 8 performance? It was a stellar rendition and the final track that all four members of Pink Floyd ever played together.
Omg! The planetarium! It was so f'ing awesome. I probably went 15 times. And yes, the aroma....lol What a memory. Thanks!
It's like trying to pull up a guitar solo steam train at full speed at 11.10 with those drums....truly an amazing performance...
Pink Floyd Planetarium?
Hell yeah I went to that.
Must do live at the PULSE... comfortably numb... solo is worlds best

A wonderful version of this song was recorded with David Bowie at the Royal Albert Hall in 2006
Saw Pink Floyd laser shows in SF & Seattle in the early 90s... And yes it was always a dome laser arena with some copious amounts of pot or hash smoking prior...
"I should have put my headphones on " should never be an after thought when listening to Pink Floyd
we had the wall light show at the OKC zoo back in the 80s early 90s
That moment when you find out that one of the original names of Pink Floyd was Meggadeaths.
"Computer, one of these days I'm gonna chop you up into little pieces." Bwahaha! Niiiiice. Careful with that axe, Lavigne.
