Hi, love :) You know... I love that you pointed out something about me, when you said "concentrated on what she was hearing", because that is exactly right! I have seen a lot of commenters expressing disdain for me, because I close my eyes. They just don't seem to understand that A. This is my reaction and how I react-- or listen to music; B. I am focusing on the music and not the imagery of the video. This IS a review/reaction to the song, after all, right? Thank you. I appreciate you ;) (((hugs))) ♥

This guitar solo is historical. That was phenomenal and so emotional, that was just splendid and extremely powerful! I was there, that specific day, I was really young and everybody after the concert was speechless and still in trance. We were walking in silence, thinking about this phenomenal concert, looking at the stage sometimes just to remember this moment forever before we leave for good. I also remember the smell of joints, especially in front of the stage (yes, that was of course forbidden but ... Pink Floyd is Pink Floyd, right? Some people couldn't resist). Now, when I watch this guitar solo, I always remember that the sound was everywhere around us, it was so impressive and so imposing, like ... the massive, colossal, powerful, and majestic machine of Pink Floyd, directly connected to your soul! And I can tell you that we were all vibrating! - Your friend is really unique! She is really sensitive for sure, and she is exceptional. What a lovely person!

This by far the single greatest reaction video of any song on KZread. And It is to arguably the greatest rock song ever performed with the greatest guitar solo ever recorded. WOW. I am not drained of all energy. She really knocked me out.

The wall Full movie Pink Floyd

I remember when I first heard this around 1979 or 1980 I had a sense that I had the unique experience of "knowing" this song was created "just for me" I had skin tingling sensations, goose bumps and a sense of Euphoria the moment I heard the incredible voice of David Gilmour singing "There is no pain you are receding A distant ship smoke on the horizon You are only coming through in waves Your lips move but I can't hear what you're saying When I was a child I had a fever My hands felt just like two balloons Now I've got that feeling once again" I couldn't make out the lyrics back then but the sound of his voice created in my mind a sense of somewhere between its the end of the world as I know it (in thought, not the song), this is the reason I was born, so at this moment in time I would melt into the wind carried by the magical vibrations of this song and "This is Heaven" So I completely understand your monsoon eyes

Don't you dare apologize. The whole point of music is to make an emotional connection with the listener. Pink Floyd, and David Gilmour in particular, has a incredible talent to be able to do that.

10 seconds into the solo and she starts crying.. Yep thats gilmour girl.. No worries happens to all of us

Pink Floyd hits me almost as much as her because this music was my childhood, since my dad would play it on the stereo and in the car constantly. I even watched The Wall music video/movie as a kid.

WOW just WOW! I've seen lots of reactions to this song. Never have I've seen a reaction like this, organic, unrestrained, pure hearted and appreciative! Sweet lady, NEVER apologize for feeling the music. Imagine hearing this as a teen. Although it hits harder now! 😭

I have heard this song many many times and every time it gives me chills. Watching your reaction…I cried with you. This song has a story, a history, very sad. David Gilmour has a very unique gift of bringing so much emotion into his guitar playing. His guitar cries. Thank you for sharing your unfiltered response. Makes me smile.

No one can make their guitar cry like David Gilmour. Greatest band of all time.

Don't you DARE apologize for this reaction! There is NOTHING more pure than an honest reaction from an honest heart to music like this. Not only is it uplifting, it is validating. I don't think a more powerful statement can be said, than an honest emotional reaction to an experience like this.

Pink Floyd transcends music... I can't tell you how many times I've cried or smiled listening to them. Each song is a master piece... but they created albums, and when you understand how each song is part of a whole it's just overwhelming how beautiful and deep their art is.

The 'Meddle' album almost drove me insane the first time I heard it. I was 20, and living in a shelter at the time. My father and I used to listen to Pink Floyd all the time. This was an album he didn't have though. He passed away not long before I began living in a shelter, and they had a store up front. There was a Walkman and a huge casstte and CD section. The Wall and Meddle were both in there and I grabbed them. I still get extremely emotional listening to this band.

As much as I LOVE this version, I will only watch it once a month as it always brings me to tears……..and I never want to lose that.

The reason this guitar solo is so unusual is that David will always hit the string you wouldn't expect him to hit. He manages to touch the chords that we previously thought inaccessible, out of reach to others.

You are two people in life: who you were before hearing Pink Floyd, and who you are afterwards. It's that transformative.

Scott Redman I was a fairly "late bloomer" when it comes to music. From age 18 I was busy being a wife and mother. Then, when my son went off to university, he was kind enough to leave behind some of his favorite music. This was back in 1994. Then he started sending me suggestions that he had discovered on campus. Like Leonard Cohen (who was still under the radar....at least where we live), and THIS epic production. I was 36 at the time I started to listen to these -- as you call it, "transformative" -- bands and singers. I'm 63 now....living alone with my cat. My son and daughter-in-law are 1500 miles away. But when I hear these songs that MY David gifted to me, it takes me right back to those wonderful, beautiful times we had -- and actually STILL have -- talking about the sheer power of BRILLIANT music. 🌟💫💛

"The child has grown, the dream is gone". The most poignant lyric in rock history, followed by the most soul-stirring guitar solo of all-time (live or studio). This is truly a transcendent piece of music. It's a living thing unto itself. Gilmour's guitar has been known to make the gods weep. You can hear and feel the lump in the throat of his Stratocaster. Gilmour, through his guitar, has the ability to profoundly touch every living soul he encounters. He truly is in a class by himself.

Anytime someone wants to hear this song for the first time, it needs to be Pulse. The studio version doesn’t do it enough justice.

The great Classics of the Rock Era including Moody Blues (Nights in White Satin), Led Zeppelin (Stairway to Heaven , Pink Floyd (Comfortably Numb, Brick in the Wall) , Rush (2112) all have the ability to tickle the central nervous system, Chills, Goose bumps, Head Numbing (literally numbing the scalp) are all incredible evidence that these songs touch peoples souls (or spirit if you prefer).

I still get goosebumps every time I hear this. Simply stunning.

I've heard this song a million times. I will get goose bumps during that 🎸 solo every single time ❤️

That was downright beautiful and hands down the best reaction to this heavenly masterpiece of a guitar solo I have seen to date.❤ The Beatles made the guitar gently weep. Gilmour made it cry out in both agony and pain as well as the blissful high as high as the wild ride of falling in ever growing love and every feeling in between on that spectrum. Angelic is not an overstatement.❤‍🔥 Someone once said something to the effect of "make love like a Pink Floyd song". This live rendition of Comfortably Numb is a good bet. 😀❤

Yeah totally relatable reaction. Comfortably numb is among the greatest songs ever written and the solo definitely is one of the best too. A true masterpiece worthy of such emotions.

Gotta love it when a song hits your soul. Thanks for sharing this reaction, I got to hear it for the first time again vicariously.

David Gilmor the god of GUITAR ..nobody else doing like him ...my god

I'm crying too because I see you feeling everything the music says. It's just too much, it's overwhelming. Yes yes yes the notes DO communicate, yes yes yes it touches your soul! Grown men cry when they hear this song. The bit that really gets me though is when he sings that his childhood dream has gone and as an adult he has become comfortably numb. This is for almost every one of us who didn't spend their life doing what they loved and dreamed they would do. We have had a life wasted grubbing around for a living.... oh Lord oh Lord. I am 64 years old. It makes me think 'What on earth have I done? I've gone the wrong way all my life and there's no way back now. I'm going to die never having lived.' And that is what makes people cry, as well as the music itself. Thank you for your true and honest reaction to a beautiful track.

When I was in recovery my husband asked me, "What is it like for you right now? I'm trying to understand so I can help." I didn't say anything. I immediately put this song, this version, on the speakers and sat quietly. He listened along with me. Stone silent. Not moving. When the track ended, he sat there, still quiet, for about 5 minutes. I said, "Do you understand now?" He burst intears and hugged me tight. Sometimes, music can explain far better than any words. This song will always have a deeply emotional meaning for me.

One Internet user mentioned that when his daughter was 4 years old, when he put on a Pink Floyd record, she asked for the door to leave the room. So he asked her why? She replied:''Because this music enters my body'';. . .

@@HalfLifeSistah Here is the answer I gave to an admirer of Metallica's Kirk Hammett's solo in the beautiful ''Fade to black'': Kirk Hammett in ''Fade to black'' takes us close to the black hole in the center of the galaxy. But be careful, he has a lot of support from Hetfield and Trujillo in the peak of the room. Of course, Metallica likes to rub up against black holes. David Gilmour has no need for this support in Comfortably Numb. Why? Because it makes us realize the beauty of galaxy harmony. This universe, which despite the black holes, makes us all gravitate in an immense and colossal harmony; so much greater than the simple human nature. There's one another aspect you need to realize. Pink Floyd was founded in the late 1960s. It was the wave of the: ''Yeah. . . Yeah. . . Yeah'' of the Beatles. British like them, but they come with this music straight out of another world; a kind of angelic world. In conclusion, they are also the inventors of this kind of large-scale show. Before, it was practically just the scene, some basic lighting effects and that was it. Ask yourself this question? Could Metallica have been born without them? Honestly, I'm not sure. They are the greatest of all time, and there is no doubt that we will listen to Beethoven in 300 years, and we will still travel to the eternal music of Pink Floyd. Finally do you know how old Kirk Hammett was when Pink Floyd was recorded in Pompeii? He was 10 years old. I strongly recommend you to listen this movie on KZread '' Pink Floyd Pompeii''. . . Phew!. . . . They were already occupying a galaxy from the Big Bang. kzread.info/dash/bejne/q2F5mcGPeK_cm6g.html (part 1) kzread.info/dash/bejne/omxtzaOpZNXgcqg.html (part 2)

At the Pulse concert April 1994 Pasadena California a lot of people were weeping to comfortably Numb high hopes and sorrow... It was a spiritual experience that I will remember for the rest of my life.... the Pulse version of Comfortably Numb, Sorrow, and High Hopes will be played at my funeral... This is who am, this is the way..

I think there will always be hope for the planet as long as there are such emotional souls like this girl. Lots of love and respect from Serbia.

Loved your reaction. I'm 71 years old and have seen them numerous times since 1969. Believe me... there was nothing like a Pink Floyd concert. I'm glad I'm not the only one brought to tears when hearing something special.

@@blondelebanese9922 Bless you dear lady... I've been collecting records since 1955. Our generation has the advantage of being born before Rock & Roll, thereby letting us experience music and all its various styles and changes throughout the years. We have a better understanding of who and what influenced what and who. We've heard it all...most of todays generation have no idea, which is sad.... and now I'm going to sound like an old fart... our music was better than most of what corporate radio plays today.

That was beautiful to watch, sister... As many times as Dave has played that solo, what he did that night was transcending and ended Pink Floyd as a touring entity, the should it have happened majestically.. He reached I to the depths of his soup for that one performance of that song.

Seems that girl is one of the few whom God let to use full deepness of own soul to feel Gilmour solo. Definitely she have a special gift given by God.

I been playing for over 20 years and her reaction to that second solo is exactly why, in my opinion, David Gilmour is one of the best to ever pick up a guitar. His phrasing and tone has this uncanny ability to tap into your emotions. The way he was able to pace himself as a player and take you on a journey is just absolutely captivating.
