    Two points here, one; BRAVO! Not many people are aware of Pink Floyds early contribution to special lighting effects to augment the concert experience! Well done there! Second, the blond back up singer is Sam Brown who was a solo recording artist around this time and even had a #1 hit on the UK charts. She was offered an opportunity to be a back up singer for these series of concerts and she jumped at the chance to perform with Pink Floyd! That is a demonstration of respect that this band carried!

    The meaning of Pink Floyd songs change over time. Listening to The Dark Side of Moon and The Wall now in my 50's is completely different than when I was in my teens and 20's. The beauty of their lyrics and music is they take you on a personal journey which can be different than the original intent of the artists.

    their style seems to "do something with time" and given the content of dark-side-of-the-moon, I can't regard that effect as "accidental" in the least way. and we know there is no dark side of the moon. in fact it's all dark.

    I was fortunate enough to have been there - and not just at the concert, but dead center of the 11th row at Arrowhead Stadium in 1994 (I stilldon'tknowhowwe scored such awesome seats) - and I could weep for your not having gotten the chance to experience that show in person. The concert video is one of the best ever made, and I've watched it all the way through dozens of times. But being immersed in the middle of the live performance was beyond description. If seeing the video were like standing under my shower, being inside the show was like having Niagra Falls thundering down on me - for three straight hours!! It's been almost 30 years, and more than half my [present] lifetime ago, and it still brings a tear to my eye every time I see a video from it. I was extremely fortunate to be there, with some of my best friends around me, and I knew then that I'd never see another show that good again for the rest of my life. I've been to a few other great concerts by some of the top bands in the world, but none of them has held a candle to that show. 91,000 lights, huh? I hadn't heard that, but I can believe it. I don't know how many $millions they spent on the three complete stages & equipment sets that leapfrogged their way around the world that year, but they definitely got their money's worth. LOL, when I get to heaven, one of the things I think I'll ask for is to see that show again! I think they did do one final show together, live at Pompeii. I wouldn't look for them to do another tour though; the original members who are still alive are around 80 years old now!

    I love how, in this song, they integrated that nautical music theme into it, like boats floating on the waves. It's a perfect fit with the lyrics about coming through in waves and distant ships out on the horizon. The lighthouse lamp on stage and the mechanical jellyfish slowly floating over the audience are great touches, too.

    3 rows back, on the floor, LA sports arena. David did this solo standing about four stories above the stage, atop the "wall" structure. I had brought BINOCULARS having ever been anywhere except nose-bleed-sections at concerts. I watched his face as he played, and saw what I presume to have been sweat on his lip. And he looked down AT ME. Licked his lips and squinted since I assume in the glare of the lights up there, he would have had trouble making out the black thing in front of my face. For an instant it was just me and him.

    The song embarks on an emotional journey into one's past. David Gilmour wrote the music while he was working on a solo album in 1978. He brought it to The Wall sessions and Waters wrote lyrics for it. While many people thought the song was about drugs, Waters claims it is not but rather about an illness he got as s child. However, In the movie "The Wall", this plays in a scene where the main character, a rock star named "Pink," loses his mind and enters a catatonic drug and alcohol induced state before a show. The Doctor arrives and injects Pink with counter acting drugs. The doctor believes that he is in pain, but Pink tells him he's not. There is no pain. He completely exists in a state of mind-numbing peace from the drugs as is expressed in the lyrics, "A distant ship, smoke on the horizon" as he is floating in his state of drug-filled peace. He is … “Comfortably Numb.” The main theme is the distance between our minds perception of reality because of artificially induced relief. Remember, this is only how it plays out in the movie "The Wall." Great Song.

    I can write a book about Pink Floyd how they changed my life for the better. Mainly David Gilmour's guitar playing. But let me throw just this out there. At 14:07 of this video, you will understand why a guitar magazine deemed David Gilmour The Undisputed Dean of the Compound Bend and stated that David Gilmour admits he never was a fast playing guitarist but his Note placement is pretty much flawless. I believe Dave Mustaine of Megadeth once said, "David Gilmour can take one note and bend it in ways all other guitarist have trouble doing on the entire fretboard." Not verbatim, but along those lines. Luv you Millie ❣️ Sorrow is a awesome song, Pulse concert. (Hint)

    I’m sure others have or will comment that David didn’t write the lyrics, at least most of them. I think he contributed a few words here and there. But he wrote most of the music, actually for a solo album before The Wall came out I believe. He was just humming the verses, as he wasn’t someone who came up with lyrics easily. But if you take the music away, just lyrics, it’s a sorta okay poem. If you take the lyrics out of the music, the music will still make you cry. Together it’s perfect, so I won’t choose. But I do have a preference and it’s David by a mile. Every note somehow says a million words, for me.

    A curious thing about this song, Roger Waters and Dave Gilmour had a disagreement, (imagine that,.. Gilmour and Waters not agreeing, Haha). Gilmour wanted the song to be a more of a "Rock" song, and Waters wanted the strings and synth orchestrations that the song ended up being. They compromised and Waters got his "strings", and Gilmour got what he wanted near the end of the song when the second guitar solo starts. Notice on the studio version, the strings and synth orchestrations stop immediately when the vocals are over, and it's an overdriven guitar playing the rhythm part, as the solo ends the song. So, they both got a little of what they wanted. The two of them, (Gilmour, and Waters), rarely got along, and by 1985 Waters quit the band saying, I'm paraphrasing here,... 'Pink Floyd is a Spent Entity". Waters was sure the other 3 members of Pink Floyd could not, and would not, be able to continue without him! Obviously he was very wrong, and he knew it. Waters sued the band for their continued use of the Pink Floyd name and material,... he lost the suit. The division between Gilmour and Waters is legendary and listed as the longest rift in Rock Music history. Pink Floyd DID re-unite and perform a few songs at Live 8 in 2005, I think they performed three songs, including "Comfortably Numb". Below is the link to CN from live 8. At the end of the song during the applause, Waters motions to Gilmour, and the others to take a bow together, all 4 members of PF. The crowd went WILD. The band hadn't played together in 23 years att, and they never did reunite after that. This Live 8 concert was the last time they played together. kzread.info/dash/bejne/ao53utCzirCwYcY.html

    Listen to the first guitar solo, then compare it to the second solo. Here is where the band shows their intelligence as well as their musicality. The first solo is played in the major key. It sounds bright, almost hopeful. The final solo is played in a minor key. It imparts anger, regret and loss. Holy Christ! Both set a context for the previous verses. The first one says "Oooh, Comfortably numb! Not a bad way to be." The second solo says "Comfortably Numb. A horrible trap and a loss of my humanity." As someone said "Their words tell you what to think. Their music tells you how to feel about what you think." Amazing.

    Being able to listen to and watch updated videos gives you the ability to experience some things you may not have noticed before. With many of Pink Floyd's songs it can be difficult to take in all the elements in just one listen. However, it can be hard to watch the video because you just want to close your eyes and lay back. BTW: Very nice blouse.

    Hi Millie from Greece! I've been enjoying all your reactions but especially those concerning Pink Floyd. It's one of my favorite bands too. The first Pink Floyd song/album I listened was "Dark Side of the Moon" about 45 years ago and I haven't stopped keeping them in my life since then. It's not very common to see a very young person/artist not only to embrace but actually feel and "understand" the magic of PF. Music written 40-50 (or more) years ago but seems that it was created for "you personally" just... yesterday! "Deep" meanings in their lyrics and amazing mastery and pure genius in each note they share. I would strongly suggest to get a "look" to "Atom Heart Mother" (1970) album. I would also suggest to watch the movie "Pink Floyd: The Wall" (1982) by Alan Parker, which is based on the corresponding album (The Wall). If you don't mind "spoilers" by listening to songs from the album before you react to them, I think you''ll enjoy this! I wish you all the best!

    He got sick in his stomach at a concert in Phila The doctor gave him an injection to help his stomach pain before the show started.. He could not feel his bass after the injection hence hands felt like balloons. He played the whole show like this. When the encore came Roger did not return to the stage. This actually happened check out the story a little more. I was living in Phila at the time and maybe I went to the show. It was a high time. Floyd is a great band saw them 3 or 4 or 5 times

    Coming back to this video, I may have commented in the past, one thing I want to say about David. I've seen recently John Mayer attempt at this solo. Let me get this straight: I think John is one of the best (if not the best) guitarist of this era. Yet, he failed. I mean, he failed bad. Now, he's very talented and definitely knows music, so he recovered nicely midway. How? Playing more notes. Basicly, playing David's notes sounded boring, so he started playing like triplets instead of single notes, adding all "flashy" ideas he could come up with on the spot. And - mind you - he's amazing. Problem is that's no longer Comfortably Numb, which is not supposed to be flashy. So yes it's not just that David doesn't play flashy, it's that he can do that w/o sounding boring. Just like a narrator can keep you engaged in a documentary and another can bore you to death, reading exactly the same words. Yes you can write compelling stories and/or use intriguing language, but that's not what I'm talking about. You know, there are people that - by the quality of their voice and their reading - can recite a phonebook and keep you engaged. It's not easy at all to cover David. You can play the same notes, and crazy bends aside, that's not hard from a technical point of view. There are very good covers of Comfortably Numb on YT, they are precise and accurate. They just don't compel me listening again and again like David does (and he does that consistently - both in other performances of the same song and in other songs).

    Y, really its hits every time new and in a way different. I get so much resonance with your life changing song and band experience😍, it really struck me in my youth so deep then nothing else...! The Ufo club sessions with Pinky Syd where state of the art of London undergroundx quadrophonic Sound and psychedelic light animations circelling around the Club walls... People tripped to these effects like beeing on drugs... The cn solo of Dave is like -you know life is a mess, but you still have the lightning thunder of hope-, these emotional gates leaving the suffering needs the right choice when you really know and feel it that there is a higher truth then drama of personal life, symbolised by the opening flower of light life❣️

    Perhaps you could also investigate the "uncut version" of this performance that extends the original guitar solo by an additional minute-and-a-third, which most of these posted videos (e.g. such as this one) excise.

    Hey, always love your channel and reactions. Pink Floyd Is my 2nd fav. band of all time. This song live is off the page, I watch this version about 100 times a year and never get tired of it.😊. I would love for you to react to a song called Calling Elvis from DIRE STRAITS Live ON THE NIGHT 1993. It's so epic as well with a few awesome surprises at the end. Anyway love your work. Cheers from Australia 🎸🎸

    Seen a few of your reactions... you've got excellent taste! I love the fusion of rock and classical elements. Have you got around to Genesis yet? Try 'Firth of Fifth'. Moody Blues, 'Nights in white satin' and the 'Story in your eyes. A one off is John Miles 'Music' at the proms. That's an order! Sorry, I'm another old git inflicting my music on you but from what I've seen you'll be hooked!

    As Greg Phillinganes ( Micheal Jackson director) said when he saw them in 1994 they were on a whole different level in performance. Thanks to Mark Brinkman who start with the "wall" from then on. Greg later played with Dave.s final concerts in 2006

    Millie, You can not go wrong with Pink Floyd. All of their music is GREAT, all of it ALL......... You, my dear would have fit in to my generation very well. It is your soul and love of fine music.. You are so mature to be so young!!! A special lady!!!!!!!......... David's guitar solo triggers the lasers --- COOL....... Question --- how long does it take to set-up all those lights and lasers??? The stage crew-roadies deserve a raise!!! These men are SO relaxed!!!! And they are cool......... I am the first to admit I am biased concerning Pink Floyd. I want to go on the record saying I think they are one of the BEST rock bands EVER!!!!!! EVER...... O K mirror ball time, release the giant mirror ball..... Was that great, or what???? So special it explodes your head!!!!! Oh my GOD!!!! Take care and stay safe. I forget did I tell you about their song --- "The Great Gig in the Sky"? It is off of the Dark Side of the Moon. Check it out. You will love it for sure!!!
